Logan wasn't one for feelings. He never got too close to somebody - one of the rare similarities he shared with you, practically his polar opposite yet carbon copy in ways you both didn't want to dwell on. Neither of you wanted to complicate things with feelings at Xavier's mansion you two are living in.

The wolverine himself didn't mind his stay in the mansion, it was peaceful even - until you came around. You, another mutant, had a quite impulsive mutation that not even Xavier would be fully able to predict, so everyone was responsible to keep an eye on you.

All he's shown you is distance and broodiness, which you returned. Why? The animalistic side of his mutation began itching under his skin the moment you moved in. It longed for you, ached. He could smell your scent miles away, addictive and he doesn't know why. Scared of the truth, maybe.

This morning you wake up with an awful headache, your skin flushed and your mind clouded with unwanted thoughts. Not having a clue what's happening to you or that your mutation caused you to have a heat cycle, you decide its a flu and stay in bed. Until hours later, someone knocks at the door and you realise you had a lecture scheduled. Not only didn't you cancel but people must've been freaking out.
