Take My Hand, Take My Whole Life TooMagda walked into the dimly lit room, and paused to stare at the man on the phone. The cord kept him from leaving the desk but she imagined that he would have moved around the room if he could while he spoke. While always still, there was a need in him to always be moving forward an working toward some goal.
For Magda, this was never the life she imagined or could have imagined wanting. She had always imagined that a grand life meant she would be surrounded by friends in a small cabin with her growing family. Now, she was here. And she wasn't sure that she could go back. She loved this life and the way they could help so many people. She loved seeing her husband with a purpose. His inherit need to protect others put to good use here.
A few years ago she and her husband were living in Poland, and staying low out of sight since he was so well known and wanted world wide. When a motion was filed that wanted mutants to be registered, they'd made the hard choice to come tot he US and speak against the register. After 10 years of being quite, and after Trask was had made himself trouble--the government had done a shocking thing and listened to him instead of arresting him. It had gone even further, when others begin listening to him. Xavier spoke out, Erik spoke out, and others begin. When looking at a holocaust survivor . . . they'd listened.
Listening turned to a peaceful following. A follower turned to a political job. A job to running for president. And now . . . now she was standing at the door watching him talk to someone on the phone in the late of night to help promote mutant rights in other counties. Not just this one. Smiling as he hung up, she padded across the plush carpeting to come up behind him and jump to hug him.

Clouds will race in, storms will rage onNo, Erik had not ever lied to her, and she knew he ever would. She knew that he would only say these things if he meant it, and honestly thought them to be true. This past year had been hard on the family, and while last night had given her hope things were getting better--the idea that he could relapse was one that hung in the back of her mind. A dark fear. Yet one she'd not voice right now as she wanted to be there for him, and for their daughter. Nina had missed simple things with her father, and had grown to not look for him all the time. Magda wanted that bond to grow back between them. For both of them.
Erik asked her for time and understanding, and Magda nodded. She could give him both. She knew that she could wait more for him. "You know you already have both," She told him softly, knowing he was asking for something that she would already give him. Her words were lighter though, not quite a tease but there was hope in them. An underlying emotions of happiness that was just begging to break through with a little push. "I meant it when I told you the other night, that if you love me it is enough. Whatever you need, Erik. You're family is here to help. I want to help you. I need you to talk to me to do that."
After so long of shutting her out, she wanted him to keep talking to her. He had told her this, and she wanted him to tell her more. She wanted to hear him talking again. Smiling again. Happy again. If he let her, she could help him heal from the year they'd tortured him. Getting his powers back wouldn't heal the scars that were there. Love could.
But you will be safe in my arms |

Take my hand, take my whole life tooMagda hadn't known adult Erik long, and she hadn't known child Erik long either, but the bond they had made meant she KNEW him without having to know him. If Erik was hunting down the man who killed his mother, and did unspeakable things to him, then his life had a darkness in it. One she wished she could help ease. Yet she knew this was something he had to do. "He goes by Sebastian Shaw." Changing names was common for some of the men trying to hide from justice. What little could be served to the men who's done these things to people in the camps.
She held his hand while he explained more. She wasn't foolish, she knew that his leads were men who had hurt and killed many, and that justice might not always mean calling the police. Magda's people had a distrust for the police anyway. She wasn't quite sure what he was doing for justice. "They cannot be willing to talk to you." Which meant his life was not only filled with revenge, but violence and solitude.
But she understood. This Shaw man, had taken a child and used emotional and physical pain to try to draw out the magik that he had. She'd seen him them. She'd seen him just trying to find the will to live. She understood he needed to do this.

Clouds will race in, storms will rage onHe didn't have the same control, but she knew he'd worked at it. The change in him was so much, so fast, and she wanted it to last. So, she was honest with her husband as she always was. "Part of me wants this more then anything, for you and for anyone else this poison had touched. I want to see you happier with yourself. I want them to come back so you have your whole self returned to you . . . . " she told him, "and part of me is afraid this isn't real." That this was just something different.
Being honest with him was hard, but she knew he'd understand. She couldn't imagine what he was feeling right now. To have this hope and he had to also feel this fear that it could go away. "You have always been stronger then anyone thought you were," Magda said in reply to this comment on mutant abilities being stronger then their poison. She kept holding his hand to her, while looking up at his face. Moving to kiss his fingers she let him go, and rested one of her hands on his chest.
"What do you need, Erik?" She asked, wanting to be supportive of him, and not knowing what would happen next. She didn't want him to leave, but she knew his friend Charles had helped him once before. Lifting her hand from his chest she touched his cheek. She loved him so much. Stretching up a little Magda kissed his lips. She felt as if she wasn't be supportive by jumping for joy but after this last year, and the two years before that---she was afraid she'd loose him a third time. She couldn't bare it. Breaking the kiss, she looked up at him, and finally smiled. His kisses always had given her more.

Clouds will race in, storms will rage onNot for certain. She could understand the fear of wanting something but afraid it was too good to be true. She felt it now as she was trying to find the hope that his powers were back, and the fear that he might fall deeper into himself should this not be something that last. She knew how important this was to his sense of self, and she wanted this for him--but feared loosing him if he lost it again.
"You feel it?" She asked, trying to embrace the hope, even though it was hard. Lifting his hand that she held to hold him to her chest, the back of his hand resting on her heart while her two hands held his fingers and palm. "You're controlling it again?" Which meant, "Their poison didn't work." At least not as long as they hoped. If he was healing from this then that meant any others could as well.

You make me happyIt had been a challenging move without the added stress of their daughter getting sick. They'd moved after Nina's life had been put at risk, and coming here Magda thought they'd be safe--and they were. But a sickness was everywhere. Magda made a warm broth and put it in a cup with a lid, and walked back to find Erik sitting on the bed instead of sitting beside her. Pausing there she smiled. She was still worried, but the sight was one she loved.
Walking over to the bed, she handed Erik the cup. "Try to get her to drink a little. It has some herbs in to help break up anything that settles in her lungs," and ease her cough. It would also help keep fluids in her to help her get her strength back. It wasn't easy to watch her baby, something so small and innocent, fight this. She wanted to do more but knew that it would take time to let her heal. The doctors gave her their medicine, and Magda gave her this. Between the two they would get her back.

Clouds will race in, storms will rage onHis powers were coming back. Magda's eyes lowered to his hands. She had learned that his powers didn't really come from "magikal hands" like she had thought before, but it still seemed the source of his power so that was where her eyes was looking. Was he sure? Erik said he was sure. How did he know? He could fell it, he told her. Erik seemed to know everything she would said, and instead just said it.
His powers were coming back. She wanted this hope for him so much, but she was afraid that if this didn't work then he would get worse. She wasn't sure she could go back to loosing her husband like that after he had just began coming back to her. Just began? Was that the change in him? She had thought it them, but now she wondered if he was finding himself instead. Looking up to his face she tried to think of something beyond Erik's voice echoing in her head. His powers were coming back! It was something that she wanted and prayed for, and now that it was here . . .
She worried that if it wasn't true that she would loose him for good. "You've known this since the other night?" She asked, clearly in shock, and trying to adjust to this. Had he known and not told her? Magda walked up closer to him and rested her hand in his, looking back at his hands before returning to his face. "Are you alright?" Was he feeling alright? Did he feel like she did and was afraid too?

These boots were made for walkingMagda loved his kisses, and the feel of his hands on her body warmed her, as her breath slowly began to come faster--and it was in these moments that a small voice broke through their kiss. Magda pulled back from the kiss and turned her head to look at their daughter, as Nina was up again and asking her Papa to come sing her another song. Apparently she was awake and every time she tried to sleep the thoughts of the animals woke her up more.
Magda looked up at her husband, smiled at the karma that played out here, kissed his chin and slowly let him go. "It's a pity you cannot say no to her," Magda whispered, as she turned to walk up to bed, leaving father with Daughter. Magda went on to bed alone.

These boots were made for walkingHe whispered against her lips and she loved it, evident b her lips hitching up into a smile that she tried to fight. Oh how she loved this man. Faults and all. Then he kissed her and Magda's hands lifted to trail from his elbows to his shoulders were she held on to him during the kiss. The heel of his hand holding her close was warm and wonderful.
As he broke the kiss, he teased her about if this was enough to make up for it. Yes. Loving her was enough to let him forgive him anything. "It's a good start," Magda whispered back, as her hand moved to his cheek. "Don't let me stop you now." With that she kissed him again, her arms winding around his neck, and her lips parting to taste him.

Take my hand, take my whole life tooHe spoke of his father, and how she had would give him the chance to carry on a tradition. Magda smiled and shifted in his arms so that she could rest her head on his arm, and somewhat face him, though her belly kept her from being able to lay fully against him. She kissed him anyway, letting her lips lightly brush over his.
"Tell me about your father." She asked, knowing some of it, but not knowing that he sang to Erik. She wanted to know more about the man who had taught him this song. Magda and Erik had broth lost their parents when they were young, and she knew that sometimes it was easy to say things with fondness, and that sometimes the memories took over. She hoped that Erik could share a few good memories tonight, without the darker ones taking hold of them.

Clouds will race in, storms will rage onHe didn't chase her but it did nothing to hinder her good mood. Magda pulled some eggs from the cooler and put them on the counter before pulling out some potatoes and beginning to peal and cut them for hasbrowns. She was humming lightly an old folk song when she head him walk in behind her. It wasn't until he spoke that she turned to look at him. She pushed the potatoes back, and turned to face him, resting her back on the counter, and her hands resting there. Magda had her full attention on him, and nodded.
She had planned to let him bring it up and thankfully he did. "And the other night." Adding the words on let him know that she knew what he wanted to talk about, that she had been waiting for him to bring it up and explain what he was thinking. She didn't know what to think, or what was happening but it was clear that something was happening. That Erik clearly knew about it since he was not worried about it.

I'll be the one, if you want me toMagda heard him speak words she should have known that he would have said. "It is not my safety I am concerned about." Looking at him, she said nothing as they stared at each other. "Because I know why you do it." She wasn't sure if he meant because of him or because she believed in the cause, but she knew that the answer was both. They were all Erik in a way. Everyone she helped. "Just as I know . . . " She looked down, unable to hold his glaze while he spoke of the words she said when she had thought he was sleeping. "And perhaps you shouldn't." If she could stop, then she would, but loving he wasn't a choice. It was something that happened more and more every time she thought of him. It was something that distracted her while working in the tea shop, and kept her quite at the dinner table while Matteo talked about work.
Her marriage had started falling apart for reasons that had nothing to do with Erik--but he was the reason she stayed. Him and the other mutants she could help with her information that she would give him. "Just as you should not be taking this risk." This risk. The risk for him. Magda who by nature was a loving and touching person couldn't look at him as she spoke back to him. "It's not that simple, Erik." She would love him either way, and she'd take the risk either way. The political world was a mess. She would do what she could to help that. And as for him, "Either way, you're safer here then out there." Finally looking over at him, "So rest. Nothing will happen to be because you're here." Matteo wouldn't let the embarrassment of a wife helping the ones he was trying to stop become public. She wasn't sure what would happen if he found out but it wouldn't be public. He'd keep that lid on tight. Public imagine was important to his cause. "Let me do this for you." Help him, since she couldn't shouldn't love him.

These boots were made for walkingMagda smiled when he joked about spoiling their daughter, then looked back at him and glared. As if to say How dare you make me smile while I am trying to argue with you. He even lifted her hand to kiss it, and she knew the argument was over. She had pointed out how he'd hurt her, and he'd apologize twice, and said he wouldn't do it again.
"Make it up too me?" She asked, her voice still not fully teasing but not as hurt either. "How do you plan to do that?" It was an invitation to kiss her, not a request for him to do anything more. That wasn't who they were. Magda and her husband had a open and loving relationship. She didn't expect a grand gesture from him to make it up to her. She expected him to be honest when he said he wouldn't do it again. That didn't mean she wasn't going to let him get away without sounding kissing her to seal his apology.

Clouds will race in, storms will rage onThey reminded him of their wedding night. It was such simple words but the impact they had on her heart was like an Erikquake that shook her. Madga pulled on her pants, one of her favorites that had metal beads that ran down the sides. Then pulled on one of Erik's shirts from a drawer.
She knew it would hurt when he had another hard day but, this morning gave her so much hope. "Oh?" She said, pretending to think. "I am trying to remember that one. Which night was that? What did we do?" It was a tease, one like she would have made if nothing was wrong. Teasing him that she didn't remember one of the most impact nights of her life. Even as she said the words, she had almost failed in keeping her smile off her lips.
"Maybe you need to remind me." A challenge. But not an easy one. Especially since she was both hungry and sore and . . . and wanting him. Stepping back into the hall she quickened her pace to hurry toward the kitchen. She knew he might not give chance but even if he didn't then leaving him without chance to retort was enough!

These boots were made for walkingShe knew he wanted to have his dream world, and she wanted that too. Not just for him and their daughter but for all the ones who had to hide because they were born different then the ones who held political power in this world. She understood that--but ti didn't make her feel any less left out. Maybe just less angry.
He walked toward her and took her hand, so Magda wrapped her fingers around his and squeezed. He apologized, and she knew that everything would be alright between them. She just wasn't ready to let it go without making another point. "What will you do when she grows too spoilt?" Magda teased, but her tone wasn't as amused as it normally was.
Because she had missed this. Because she wanted this for their daughter too. "Erik, you know I want these things for her too. That I don't want her to know the fear I did, or you did from your faith or your powers. I would have wanted to see her joy too." And she was sad that she missed it. That he had got to see Nina using them so openly and happy.
