Revelations

I’m horribly sorry for the long wait, I’ve been rather busy! I’m going to be writing a lot more stories though so I may not get back to this one too quickly, I just have so many ideas I have to write them!! I really hope you like this chapter!!

More bad attitude towards gays (sorry has to be done!), angry Beast shows his face!!

Chapter 6-Revelations

Quando tecum sum cor meum dolte,
sed absum etiam dolorem sensio. [1]

Hank sighed heavily at the ceiling frowning, trying to work out everything that had happened in the past few days. It had only been four days since they’d returned from the woods. Most of the students treated them the same as before, but several of them acted coldly towards both him and Charles. He wasn’t sure he would be able to deal with their behavior for much longer. Frowning he thought back to earlier today.

*Flashback*

Everyone was having dinner in the dinning room. It started out normally, Hank made sure to sit as far away from Charles as possible. The distance wasn’t far enough that he couldn’t smell him or hear him talk. He could feel the Beast inside him claw at the inside of his mind, trying to go to his mate. ‘There’s something different about Charles’ scent.’ He mused thoughtfully. ‘I just don’t know how its different, but the Beast wants to be near him even more than usual.’

Hank kept a close eye on Charles through dinner, like he had been since they had gotten back. He noticed that the telepath was eating less today than he had been, and frowned in concern. About half-way through dinner Charles suddenly excused himself and hurried out of the room. Hank felt something was wrong and wanted to comfort him, but before he could stand he caught a conversation from Bobby and Spyke. They had noticed Xavier’s sudden departure and laughed quietly together.

“Maybe he finally realized what he and that blue creature did!” Spyke said to Bobby, Hank bristled slightly at the comment but easily ignored it as he continued walking.

“Yea, the bald-headed crippled faggot!!” Hank felt his control snap, Beast jumped to the front of his mind and he heard a strange snarling sound. As he turned to face the table, he realized everyone was suddenly silent, staring at him and he knew the sound was coming from him.

Hank ran at the table, easily vaulting over it without disturbing any of the food. Angry beyond words at the two of them, he pulled their chairs backwards forcing them to hit their heads on the floor. He then jerked them up by their collars.

“I don’t care what you say about me!!” Hank growled in an acidic voice, the Beasts’ anger mixing with his own. “But don’t you dare disrespect the man who helped you and put you up in his own home again, or I won’t be able to stop myself from kicking your ass!!” And with that declaration he let go of them, allowing them to fall on their butts. Hank ignored everyone’s startled faces and hurried out of the room, slamming the door hard behind him.

Hank could hear Jean and Storm arguing with the boys about their behavior. ‘They should get punished for their behavior.’ Frowning, he looked down the hall towards Charles’ room wondering if he was there. Hank sighed, knowing it wouldn’t be a good idea to be around him when the Beast was so clearly angry. It was hard not to go to him though, he felt something was wrong with him, but instead he headed into his room to lock himself there.

*End Flashback*

Hank had been in his room for almost an hour when there was a knock on the door. He ignored it and rolled onto his stomach, burying his face into his crossed arms. Without waiting for an answer, Kurt suddenly teleported into the room causing Hank to jump in surprise.

“Uh…sorry Mr. McCoy,” The boy started, shifting slightly. “I wanted to tell you, both Bobby and Spyke are being punished quite harshly.” He quirked a smile at Hank, then headed over to sit on the bed next to him. “Are you alright?” He questioned as the older mutant sat up to face him.

“Hmmm…I got a little carried away, didn’t I?” Kurt shrugged, nudging him in the side.

“Nah! They deserved it!” Hank smiled before resting his hand lightly on Kurt’s shoulder.

“Thank you, Kurt.” He hesitated before asking the question that was bothering him. “Is…Charles…okay?”

“I…don’t think so…” Kurt frowned at the thought. “He came back into the room a few minutes after you left and he was really pale, like he was sick or something. I thought it was because he heard what they said, but when Storm and Jean told him his face got really angry and he punished them more.”

“It does sound like he’s sick, doesn’t it?” He said softly more to himself than Kurt.

“You should go see him.” The younger mutant stated suddenly. Hank blinked, eyes widening slightly as his face heated up. “I can tell you want to.”

“That…wouldn’t be a good idea…” He muttered, shaking his head slightly.

“Why? Just because you’re both men?” Hank shook his head, frowning deeply.

“Not…entirely.”

“Something else happened, didn’t it?” Kurt questioned. Hank sighed, ‘He’s quite perceptive for such a young boy, but then again, he has gone through many hardships as well.’

“Please, tell me! I promise I won’t tell anyone else…please!” He begged the older mutant.

“Why are you so eager to hear the story?” He asked, confused.

“I…don’t know why, I just want to understand, and help if I can.” Hank sighed, looking at Kurt. “I’m not so young that I don’t know its not going to be all pleasant, but I really want to know.”

“Alright, I’ll tell you the story…but you can’t tell anyone, got it?” Kurt nodded and settled down for a long night as Hank started his story when the Beast first showed up, and him and Charles had first ‘gotten together.’

Charles sighed as he settled into bed, still feeling nauseous from earlier. He had had to leave dinner half-way through to vomit in the toilet. He had been feeling strange since him and Hank had gotten back from the woods, he was having trouble sleeping, foods he’d never cared for suddenly seemed delicious to him, and yesterday he’d gotten sick once.

He thought it was just because of everything that had happened, but now that he’d gotten sick twice already, and the nausea was still there he wasn’t so sure. ‘All I want to do right now is go see Hank, let him wrap me in his strong arms and soothe my pain.’ Sighing he fell into a fitful sleep.

* * * * * * * *

Charles was woken up abruptly by a strong hand covering his mouth. His eyes widened as he realized who the figure above him was…it was Sabertooth. He was smiling ferally down at him as he pinned the helpless mutant on the bed, and Charles couldn’t use his telepath for some reason…
