Chapter 9: A Missed Plane

~*~

Max sat in the cab and watched as Alec faded into the horizon. Her eyes were damp with tears, holding Ben she cradled him to her. She needed his body support.

~*~

Logan paced in front of the airport. Max should have been back by now, something happened, he knew it. He turned on his heel and walked into the airport.

~*~

Max arrived at the airport, late, as usual. She couldn't see Logan anywhere. When she went inside she asked the receptionist, if she had seen her husband.

"Hello, have you by chance checked in, a Logan Cale?" Max asked sweetly.

"Yes, he got on his flight, 5 minutes ago. The flight just took off. Sorry ma'am." The woman said at Max's disappointed look.

"It's okay, thank you."

Max slowly walked away from the desk and sat down in a red plush chair. Dialing Logan's cell phone number she sat waiting for an answer.

"Hey, Logan, why'd you leave without me?"

I thought you were already on the plane, and by the time I got seated and didn't see you, the plane had already took off.

"Oh, I see."

"Okay, I'll catch the noon flight tomorrow."

"Yeah, bye Logan." Max said feeling uncomfortable.

~*~

Max quickly called a cab, riding to Alec's hotel room.

~*~

Alec lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. He was worried, Max could easily change her mind, and go with Logan. That would hurt so bad, all he wanted was the truth. He was also worried, that Logan was up to something.

Suddenly he heard a knock on the door. Confused he got up and answered it. Standing in the doorway was Max, with Ben in one arm and her bags in the other.

"What?" was all Alec could manage to say.

"Logan, left without me. I have to catch the flight tomorrow. Can I stay here with you?" Max asked with hope in her eyes. The kind a little girl has when she opens all her Christmas presents, wanting the beautiful porcelain doll she asked for.

"Do you even need to ask?" Alec said opening his arms wide.

Max dropped her suitcases and ran into Alec's arms, crushing Ben in between the two of them. She slowly released him, setting Ben down on the floor.

"So, where were we?" Max asked with a smirk.

"Right about here." Alec replied, pulling Max into his arms and pressing his lips firmly against her.

~*~

That night was the best night they both had, had for ages. They were happy just to be laying in each other's arms, again.

"So, do you remember everything?" Alec asked hesitantly.

"Most, everything. I mean, the small things I don't really remember." Max said looking sad. "But, I remember the most important thing of all."

"What's that?"

"You." Max said cuddling into his arms, where she stayed the rest of the night.

Thank you so much to the one who reviewed before!

Chaosti- It does mean a lot to me that you review, it doesn't matter who you are, it matters what is inside. And I would read your fic, since I like Alias, but I just started watching this season! Thanks!

Diamond*Princess-I know, the same thoughts are going through my head, but I guess my brain wants some kind of twist, but a good one. Don't worry, Logan is due for an ass kicking!

Feenian- Thanks, it will turn out M/A trust me, the only pairings I write are M/A or M/Z and you don't see Zack in this story do you? LOL! Thanks!

Jenna-here's the new chapter, but nothing ass-kicking yet!
