Through the Crack of a Door
Through the crack of the door Max watched; a tear slipping down her cheek. He'd lied to her…when she'd asked if there was anyone else, looked her in the eye and calmly said no. She supposed she should have known; it wasn't like she could make him wait till they found a cure for the virus, right?
Max wanted to look away from the scene displayed through the sliver of space left by the open door but something held her vision rooted there. She watched as Alec leaned over the chair in front of the computer and wrapped his arms around Logan's shoulders, whispering something she couldn't quite make out into his ear.
She watched as Logan smiled, craning his neck back to look at Alec. Max watched as Alec bent his head to close the gap, watched as they kissed with a fluidity that told her they'd done it many times before.
It was only until both Logan and Alec disappeared from her field of view, heading toward the bedroom that Max could tear her eyes away. Reaching out Max closed the door the rest of the way and walked down the hall; wondering if they would have told her in their own time or if the only way'd she'd ever have known was by observing through a crack in a door.
