Summary: Max and Logan go further in there relationship and Manticore

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Max enters her appartment. She opens the just loud enough to wake up
OC from her beauty sleep.
"Where have you been, Max?" she yells in a horse, sleepy voice.
"At Logan's, why do you ask?" she questions with a smile.
"I knew it, for non-lovers you are sure together a lot, and do I mean a
lot!" OC says with a half, smile. "You two should really start showing
your effection for eachother before someone gives you an offer you can't
say no to."
"Don't worry I won't get one." Max says with a worried look on her face.
~~
At Logan's earlier:
"Max, I don't know how to tell you this, but, I have fallen in love."
he says with a hazy look in his eyes.
"What, with who, do I know her?" Max started getting frantic.
"Ya, you know her, you know her very well."
"Well, who now, TELL ME!!!" Max screams with a tear on her cheek.
"You, I love you!" He says as he takes her in his arms.
~~
Back in the present time.
"Max are you alright?" OC asks very confused. "You look scared."
"Ya I'm fine." Max convinces her friend. "I was just rehapping what
Logan told me."
"Oh, did he tell you he "loved" you?" OC says with a joking expression on
her face.
"He does love me," Max fights back, "and now he knows that I love him.
We will be more happy this way, won't we?"
~~
She looks back at all the times she wanted to tell him, but couldn't.
She knew she had done the right thing, or hadn't she.
~~
Back at Logan's:
*I really do think that I did the right thing,* he tells himself, *but,
I just have this feeling that something is going to go wromg, but I can't
put my finger on it. Maybe I'll call her, just to hear what she has to
say on the matter of "us".*
All of a sudden the phone rings interupting his thoughts.
"Hey, it's me." A woman's voice says calm and cool.
"Hey Max. I was just in mid thought." Logan said in a calm voice when he
was really bubbling over at the sound of her voice.
"OC got on my back about us Logan, she said that I would probobly get a
better offer than you. You know me, I didn't believe it..."
"Zack loves you to Max, go with your gut feeling, me or him. I know that
is what you are thinking about."
"Wait a minute, that isn't fair, making me choose you because I don't love
Zack. I would have anyway, you realize that, right?"
"Max, hold on a minute, someone else is calling."
"Alright" she says with a quiver in her voice. *This could be bad if
it is about Manticore.* *He could be watching out for me. Better make a
break for Logan's palce now without getting spotted.*
~~
Back at Logan's:
"Max, Max, did you hang up on me?" *Must have*
Manticore is looking for her right now, how am I going to tell her that he
is?*
Suddenly there is a knock at the door that startles him from his thoughts
of Max.
"Max," he says as he opens the door," Manticore is after you!" Logan says
with a wandering eye.
"Don't worry, nobody followed me here, exceptd OC, she woke up just as I
was about to leave and said that if I was comming over here she had to come
with me to talk to you about us. How big a step it is and all." Max says with
smirk on her face. "But what about Manticore this time?"
"I don't know, I just got a distress call from a citizen and it wouldn't
let me trace the call. I think it might just be Manticore found out where
I live and wanted to make sure it was me. I have to get out of here, and fast!
Max any idea on places to live for a while, or could I crash at your place?"
Logan gets a hopeful look on his face after saying his last suggestion.
"Sure you could crash at our place. OC, you are comming with me on my cycle.
Logan has to pack and get into his car, without Manticore seeing him."
"Fine with me, Boo" OC says with a smile on her face. "I'd be happy to ride
with you back to our place, but one question, where will he stay?"
"That is a good question, he can stay in the guest room."
"Max, I don't like that look on your face, and we don't have a guest room
in our appartment. So like I said before, where is he going to stay?!"
"He can stay in my room for a few days, while I sleep on the couch of course
and then he can stay in your room for a few days. We can switch off weeks,
if, that is ok with you OC."
~~
*Where is Logan, maybe he got caught, maybe he...*
"Logan you made it here safely, good, did anyone follow you, if they did,
we have to get out of here fast and have OC cover for us."
"Ya, I know, don't get all over dramatic on my Max, no one followed me,
I made sure of that. But if they did, they would be outside coming toward
the door to break in, do you see anything suspicious?"
"Ya, this guy just came out of a van and is just about to shoot down the
door to the appartment complex! OC, we were never here, don't tell them a
thing!"
"Fine, I won't say a thing." OC says as she follows them to the emergency
rope in Max's room, "You sure do live a crazy life, don't you Boo."
"Cover for us..."
"Open up, we know Max is in there, we have been looking for her for years
and now that we have tracked her down, we will not let her get away."
a Manticore officer said in a loud booming voice.
Max and Logan escaped just as the door broke down to the appartment.
