Summary: Post BT, Max returns the three words to Logan. M/L, please R + R!

A/N: Like I said, I am writing this at 2:00 A.M. but I surprisingly feel alive and sane. Maybe that's why I decided to do a M/L fic this time.

Max raced her motorcycle from sector 5 to sector 9. She had to tell him. She had to tell him how she felt, and fast. She wasn't expecting the three words that had come to her only a few minutes ago. Well, she was, but not at that time. After the transgenic, she thought that the moment would be gone, and she'd have to wait for another time. She guessed wrong. Logan was facing his fears, and she knew it. That's why she had to get to his apartment, and soon.

"He's so much stronger than me," Max thought. Everytime they tried to talk about "them" and what they were, where they were going, she always ran. Ran because she was afraid of something she had never experienced before. Max guessed that Logan had been in love before, so he wasn't that afraid. But Max...she was made in Manicore, didn't have emotions when she was younger. It was very different for her.

She breezed through the sector cops. They didn't know what it meant for her to be there, for him. She felt scared, as always when approaching her and Logan's relationship. But then a different feeling overcame that one. The one of commitment.

Logan had been there for her so many times, during the seizures, problems with her siblings, and everything else...She was so grateful for that. When she was growing up she never had anyone who she could really talk to, no one except Jondy, her best friend. Sighing, Max wished Jondy could be there now. After finding the cure for the virus, she would definately resume her search for Jondy and the rest. She couldn't let them feel like she had felt a year ago.

Max rode into to the Foggle Towers indoor parking lot, and spotted Logan's car. Smiling, she walked to the stairs, then up them. It was a long way up to Logan's penthouse, so she figured she would think about how to tell him on the way up.

She finally came to Logan's door. It was time. Her plan was to just say it. Even if he asked any questions, she would just come out with it. She knocked, waited, then knocked again. On the second time, Logan answered. He then realized it was Max and backed away to let her in.

"Hi," he said, feeling the tension come into the room quicker than before.

"I love you." Max had finally said it. For a year she waited, and now the pressure was gone. His quick reply came softly.

"I love you too."
