//Late at night when all the world is sleeping...I stay up and think of you...and I wish on a star...that somewhere you are thinking of me too. Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight...till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight. And there's no where in the world I'd rather be, than here in my room, dreaming about you and me...//
I'm just laying here on my bed...and I can't help but think of Logan. He saved me. He risked his life to save mine. How can I not think of him? I've had dreams about him since he left. Some innocent...some not. Often times, I wake up and just wish that he would come back. He told me he'd be back...he gave me the only key to his past, his dog tags. I wonder if he's alright. Has he found his answers? Suddenly, I hear a bike pull up on the drive. My heart skips a beat and I look out my window. It's Logan! He's back! I rush down to meet him, my heart on my sleeve. Did he come back for me?
//Wonder if you ever see me, and I wonder if you know I'm there...if you looked in my eyes would you see what's inside, would you even care?//
I wait just before the front door, my heart pounding loudly in my ears. The door opens w/the scrape of a key and he enters. He smiles at me in his gruff way and says,
"Hey, kid."
"Hey yourself. You're back."
"Yeah. It's not that easy to get rid of me."
I smile and let my love show through my smiles and eyes. Can he tell? We talk a little about what he's found and not found. The questions that still plague him, and more brought up from his trip to Alkali Lake. I just want to fling my arms around him...tell him I love him. But I can't...he still sees me as a kid. But I will always have my dreams...
//I just want to hold you close, but so far...all I have are dreams of you.... So I wait for the day, and courage to say how much I love you...yes I do! I'll be dreaming of you tonight, till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight. And there's no where in the world I'd rather be...than here in my room, dreaming about you and me...//
Later that night, after the small reception, I lay down again to dream. My dreams...the only place where Logan and I love each other dearly...the only place I can touch him without hurting him. In my dreams he leans down and kisses me deeply. I tell him how much I love him...and I think this is happiness. This is what I want.
//I can't stop dreaming of you...I can't stop dreaming....I can't stop dreaming on you...//
I wake up the next morning to a soft tapping on my door. I groggily go to answer it. It's Logan. I smile and invite him in.
"Mornin', Marie."
"Good morning, Logan."
"Babe, I gotta talk to you. It's something important."
"Yeah, sugah?"
He smiled at the small slip of the nickname I call him in my dreams.
"Marie...I may not have found the answers I was looking for in Alkali Lake, but I found out something more important. I love you, Marie."
I gasped and teared up.
"I love you too, Logan!"
I threw my arms around him, momentarily forgetting I wasn't wearing gloves. But then, he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt so we were safe.
That night I lay in my bed, with a huge smile. Logan...loves me. The Wolverine, and the Rogue...in love. It's just like in my dreams! I fall asleep and have my dreams, except this time...this time they've become reality.
//Late at night when all the world is sleeping, I stay up and think of you. And I still can't believe...that you came up to me and said, "I love you"...I love you too...now I'm dreaming with you tonight, till tomorrow and for all my life! And there's no where in the world I'd rather be, than here in my room dreaming with you endlessly!//
He slips in beside me and I smile. His arms wrapping around my waist and holding me close.
"Mind if I join you?"
"No, I don't mind. Logan?"
"Yeah, baby?"
"I love you."
"I love you too."
We both smile and dream with each other for the whole night....
//Dreaming with you tonight, till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight. And theres' no where in the world I'd rather be...than here in my room dreaming...endlessly...dreaming of you tonight, endlessly and I'll be holding you tight...endlessly....//
