Disclaimer: I OWN NOTHING OF LAW AND ORDER!!

Author's note: I really enjoyed last night's episode: But I thought the last 15 minutes were such as disappointed. That was supposed to be Logan's exit? Come on! So, I decided to add to it.

There is kind of a Megan/Mike paring, but not really. Please review and be brutally honest, especially with who Mike should be paired up with. Thanks!


"Mike, do you have any family?"

"No"

"Ever wondered why not?"

Detective Mike Logan walked down the streets of Manhattan with the priest's last words in mind. In the past, Detective Logan never really wanted to get married and have a family. Perhaps because his own childhood was filled with abuse and suffering. Yet, Mike now couldn't help but wonder if he had missed out on something wonderful.

Soon Mike found himself at Megan Wheeler's building. He had heard that her fiancé, Collin, had been arrested for a number of charges by the FBI. Apparently he wasn't the prince charming Wheeler thought him to be. Mike sighed as he rang the bell outside Wheeler's building. Although Detective Wheeler was one tough cookie, Mike knew that she must be feeling lousy; especially after the FBI questioned her.

Mike punched the brick wall. Damn that brit! More than anything, Mike wished he could have just five minutes alone with the baster to give him what he deserved. Yet given his current job situation, it was probably just as well.

Finally, Megan opened the door. Although she had tried to hide her tears, Logan could easily tell that she had been crying.

"I heard what happened," Logan said softly, resting an arm on her shoulder. "I am so sorry. How are you holding up?"

"Okay," Wheeler said, taking in a deep breath, motioning Logan to come it. Logan followed her upstairs to her apartment, not speaking a word.

Even when they were inside Megan's cozy apartment, both were still silent. Megan started to grab two wine glasses. Mike couldn't stand the silence any longer.

"So...what happened?" Soon as those words left his lips, Mike felt like kicking himself. "Great question, Logan," He thought to himself. "That will make her feel better!"

Wheeler glared at her partner, but after pouring wine in both their glasses, she told him the whole story: How Ross had shown her the pictures and warned her; the embarrassing stop at the airport, and watching the man she thought she loved, getting booked.

"I'm such an idiot, Mike," Megan whispered, putting her now empty glass down on the counter. "I'm a Major Case Detective. Why the hell couldn't I see through him?" Logan grabbed Megan's two soft hands. While he held them as gently as he could, he continued to look in her eyes, firmly. "Hey, this isn't your fault, Wheeler. Colin is a con artist. He makes people see what they want to see." Wheeler nodded, but Logan could tell she didn't believe him.

"Look at me," Logan demanded as he lifted her chin to meet his gaze.

"You brought Colin to the squad room twice, and he still fooled me, both times. Wheeler sighed knowing Mike was right.

"I know," she whispered. "I was just hoping that this time around I had really met the right guy, you know?"

"Hey, you will," Mike promised, putting both hands on her shoulders.

"He is out there and you will find him soon enough."

Wheeler smiled. "You know Mike, sometimes you can be really sweet." She gave Mike a peck on the cheek..

The kiss was short and innocent. Maybe it was what the priest was saying about family. Perhaps Mike was afraid that chance had passed him by. What ever the reason, Mike Logan found himself pressing his partner against the wall. Megan Wheeler gasped in surprised but barely protested. Soon they covered each other with kisses, emotions, and empty words that would have to be dealt with later…


So should I continue, or stop? What should happen next? I'd love to get another chapter up tomorrow, but only if I get some feedback.
