Logan smirked down at Mystique, keeping his gaze on her face while she closed her eyes and got comfortable. His hand moved over her back lazily, while they both relaxed for as long as the lunchbreak allowed them to.

They laid in silence for the rest of the time, comfortable and relaxed. After a while, Mystique glanced at her watch and groaned. "I gotta go," She mumbled, pushed herself up onto her elbows and stole a kiss from his lips. "Hey, wanna walk me home after work?" She smiled down at him. Hell, thirty more minutes she'd get to see him for.

"Sure," Logan put his hand on Mystique's back and pulled her back, letting their lips crash together for one more breathtaking kiss. Hell, it was another reason to stay out of trouble for the day so he could leave on time. When they eventually broke apart he got to his feet, helping her up as well. Since he had to go the other way, he gave her a last quick kiss on her lips. "I'll cya later." He told her with a smirk, before their ways parted again.

Mystique put her handbag over her shoulder and walked back to work, for another afternoon of being a personal answering machine. She sat back down behind her desk and her superior approached her straight away. "Raven, Mr Lensherr would like to see you in his office,"
"Oh ... yeah, alright," She mumbled with a frown. What the hell did he want with her? She just hoped he wasn't going to fire her. She got to her feet and walked across to Magneto's office, and knocked on the door. He summoned her in, and explained that he understood her difficult situation and offered her a few extra hours of night-work, menial things, cleaning, tidying, nothing fancy but if she needed the money that much, she'd take it. Mystique thanked him, and told him she needed to discuss it with Logan first and get back to him, before she returned to her desk.

A few hours later, and only 'bout 20 minutes late, Logan showed up at Mystique's work again. The reception lady recognized him so she let him pass. Logan nodded his thanks before he went up the numerous stairs to her office.

On Mystique's floor, all the lights were out, everyone else had gone home. Mystique sat on the desk in the darkness, inspecting her nails while she waited. She glanced up when she heard footsteps and slid off the desk. "Hey," She smiled, walking over to Logan and stealing a kiss. "What took you so long?"

"Just had to finish somethin' up before we could go." Logan answered vaguely. He put an arm around her as they headed out of the office to go home.

About half way home, the walk mostly in silence, Mystique spoke up. "Mr Lensherr offered me some extra hours," She said. "I think I'm gonna take 'em. Night shift, 8 til 11, so I'd get to come home, see the kids for a while before going back to work,"

Logan looked over to her, raising an eyebrow, "Babe, we barely do anything but work already." He reminded her. "And you're exhausted as it is."

Mystique shrugged, "I can cope ... I don't want to be scraping around anymore, I want the girls to have nice things, new clothes, toys. I want them to have a nice life, so if that means I have to work a little more, so be it,"
