Chapter 8
Logan was looking for Morph. He hadn't seen them in a while, which was weird because they usually spent almost all their time together. Jubilee had told him she saw them and Cyclops in the backyard, so that's where he was heading.
But when he saw them, it wasn't the like he expected.

Morph and Scott's small talk in the backyard didn't last long. Scott had his glasses on (the ones he wore at the mansion) and the visor on his neck (the one he wore on his suit for missions). Before long, Morph took the visor off and started playing with it, which obviously annoyed Scott.
While he was trying to take it off, they suddenly tripped and fell to the ground, Scott on top of Morph.
Cyclops had started scolding Morph for it when he turned his head slightly and then quickly stood up and looked back at the mansion. Morph snorted because he didn't offer to help stand up.
"I'm fine, thanks for asking" Morph said with a smile. Sarcastically, he stood up and stood in front of Scott. “Why does that face look like you saw a ghost?”
When he turned to look in the direction Cyclops was looking, he saw Logan walking away.
Oh, it was just Logan… who saw them.
“Logan! Logan wait!” Morph shouted as he ran to catch up.
Logan didn’t stop, but his pace was slow, so it didn’t take long for Morph to catch up and get in front of him.
“What you saw isn’t what it looks like…”
“I don’t care what you two do. It’s Jean you have to explain to.”
It’s always Jean, Morph thought as Logan continued walking, leaving him behind.
“Well, then I’ll explain to Jean that it was an accident and that we just fell!” Morph shouted as Logan continued walking away.

Scott and Morph were in the kitchen talking with Jean about what had happened.
“And neither of them asked if i was okay!” Morph said "Can you believe it? Men..."
"Do you think he's been mad for that long?" Scott said. "I was already used to hoping he wouldn't growl at me every time we were in the same room."
"I can talk to him if you want" Jean said.
"I already told him it was just an accident. He'll probably get over it in a while" Morph said.
The next morning, when Morph was coming out of their room, they saw him in the hallway.
"Hey Wolverine! Are we going to train together?" They asked happily as they approached.
But Logan frowned and looked away. "Aren't you going to train with Cyclops?"
“Are you serious? Are you still mad about that? You can't tell me your dog ears didn't hear me yelling that it was just an accident?”
Logan didn't answer and kept looking away, which annoyed them.
“Fine, then I'll go find Cyclops and give him lots of kisses” Morph said, then made kissing sounds.
Suddenly, Logan pushed them against the wall. Morph let out a noise of surprise, and with his hand on their chest, Logan could feel Morph's heart racing. It was a quick reaction. Logan didn't want to do that.
“I'm sorry.” Logan pulled his hand away. He spoke slowly and seemed sad. “I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.”
Morph thought maybe he was the one who was scared, thinking he had hurt them.
“You didn't scare me.” Morph took his hand so he wouldn't move away any further and placed it on the wall near their neck. “I like it much better when I'm between you and the wall than when I'm between Cyclops and the floor”
Logan can't help but respond with a kiss
