Ex-Men - Story 4

Parent Chapter

(Emma Frost, Age 5)

"Wanna get married?" A Redhead, sleeping on a mat besides her best friend nervously holing a stuffed rabbit, happily chirps at the kindergarten wing at Xavier's Institute for Gifted Youngsters.

"Um... okay." The blonde nods, looking deep into Jean Grey's piercing green eyes.

Jean grabs her hand, smiling, closing hers and quickly falling asleep.

Emma? She spends the next half hour watching her bride.

(Emma Frost, age 14)

"I love you, Jean." Scott Summers, Xavier's All American Boy kissss his girlfriend on the cheek.

Emma, a table away, is working on a project with her friends, Hank McCoy, Bruce Banner, Simon Petrikov, Rick Sanchez, Stanford Pines, and Toni Stark, Heiress to Stark Industries, and Emma's special friend.

"This genius idea." Toni wraps an arm around Emma. "You're brilliant, Emma."

"Seriously." Hank nod.

"Eh, you're alright." Rick shrugs, secretly impressed.

<"Hey..."> Toni giggles with her telepathic link to Emma. <"How about my reward my smart girl after dinner?">

(Emma, Age 18)

"He's 25." Emma glares at the brunette in a wedding dress. "No, actually, he's older than that, technically. I can't believe you're doing this, Toni!"

Soon to be Toni Rogers shrugs as she works on her hair.

"You're making a big deal out of nothing. It's just a marriage."

Emma sighs. Not an hour ago, she was having sex with her girlfriend, now, her girlfriend's soon to be walking down the aisle to marry Captain America!

"Hey, wanna quickie?" Toni asks, unaware that Emma had just ran off in tears.

(Emma, Age 22)

"I get it." Emma sighs at a sexy redhead with a wedding ring.

"Really?" Natasha asks her girlfriend as they sat at coffee shop.

"Bucky's... Bucky's a nice guy. And I get it, The Avengers really want you Married for their image."

"Don't be." Emma sighs. "I just... I guess I can focus more on my work? God, why is it so hard to be gay?"

"I wish I knew." Natasha frowns. "Can we still..."

"Absolutely not." Emma rejects. Whether that was have sex or be friends. No.

"Goodbye, Natasha. It was... it was nice."

(Emma, Age 25)

"You look nice." Rick Sanchez compliments that blonde in a white gown.

"Mariko is a lucky woman." Hank McCoy, one of Emma's five best men smiles.

Simon Petrikov cries.

"I can't wait for me and Betty to tie the knott!"

Stanford laughs, patting his friend on the back.

"Let's get through today first."

Emma smiles. In less than hour, she'll be Mrs Yashida. She's so happy with Mariko and Little Yumi.

"Guys, thank you so much for being here for me."

Bruce Banner gives his friend a big hug.

"You're the smartest girl we know, you're the reason we didn't take Toni up on her offer, and you're the reason our company is incredible, we love you, Emma, and we want you to be happy."

"What he said." Rick laughs, taking a swig from his flask.

(Emma, Age 35)

It was the sixth anniversary of her wife's death. It was also a week away from her anniversary with her current wife, Janet Van Dyne.

It was a Christmas party at Stark Tower, a lot of people there Emma didn't get along with, but she went for her wife's sake.

It wasn't a good thing she came though. Well, good and bad.

"Enjoying the party?" Janet sits down beside her plump wife.

Emma laughs.

"What?"

"Janet, you helped me out during a very dark time. Thank you."

Janet smiles.

"Babe!" Janet tries to kiss the blonde, but Emma doesn't let that happen.

"You help me remember I could be happy... but you're not. Janet, Henry Pym seems like a nice guy. Go for it."

Emma walks off, avoiding both Toni and Nat's gaze.

(Emma, 45)

Emma Frost has been missing for ten years now. Ten. Most people thought she died. She even had a funeral service heald by her closets of friends.

...All of her Exes showed up. From Jean to Janet. But they weren't welcomed at the service. Rick made that clear during his eulogy.

A plump blonde sighs as she watches Rick berate her girlfriend's on her Frostphone at a small little diner in upstate New York.

"Wow, you made a lot of enemies that day, Rick."

Rick shrugs.

"Bitches like that deserve it. Seriously, you had like one good girlfriend."

"Yeah..." Emma sighs. "Thanks for helping me get home."

"Don't worry about it." Rick smiles. "So, uh... coming back to Frost Tower?"

Emma shakes her head.

"Xavier offered me a teaching job."

"Seriously?"

"I need a break from science. Besides, Yumi's teacher there... I'm sure she's so mad at me."

Rick shakes his head.

"She was devasted, but she understood it wasn't your fault. Still, Xavier's? You know, Jean's Headmistress now."

"Yeah? How's she doing?"
