Chapter 7

I know it's really fluffy but I was in need of an escape from the bitch that is my life and writing fluff is my escape. I promise more plot stuff soon :-) Now give me feedback


BTW you've probably worked this out but I've rewritten the last couple of episodes e.g. Logan walking, Zack dying (sob). Just in case you're trying to work out where this fits in.



Chapter 22

"Yes Aunt Wendy, I'll see you then" Logan sighed as he put the phone down.

He had just spent the last 15 minutes convince his aunt not to converge on Cat's location with the entire Canadian police force. Logan had already arranged for some of his contacts in the police to clear away the scene. He got up and walked to the window. The scenery was quite beautiful, the perfectly kept grounds stretched out until it reached the forest. Logan could remember vividly playing with Cat and his mother in the forest.

Logan's mind turned back to the present situation. Manticore had gone after Cat. His cousin had been tortured and pumped full of drugs. Simply because she was Zack's weakness. Was he himself Max's weakness? Logan knew that what had happened to Cat would only reaffirm Max's belief that they couldn't take their relationship to the next level. Logan knew they both want to be more. He was suddenly brought back to an incident that had occurred weeks ago…

*Flashback Logan's apartment*

"So, when are you going to tell her?"

Logan looked up from his computer, and questionably asked, "Tell whom, what?"

"When are you going tell Max that you love her," his therapist said, knowing the reaction it would cause.

Logan looked up clearly startled, his eyes widened in shock. "We're not like that," he denied it was a well-used line that he had used for the past month.

"Oh come off it Logan. I'm sick of seeing the two of you gaze at each other longingly and hearing the "We're just friends" line. When will you realize how much you need her?" Bling asked in exasperation.

"It's complicated," Logan protested weakly.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything."

Both men whirled around to see an amused Max leaning against the doorway, a small grin on her face. Bling rolled his eyes as Logan and Max began their staring match. Bling snorted as both of then suddenly remembered they weren't alone.

"Well Logan I'll see you tomorrow, see ya Max," Bling said as he made his way to the elevator.

"So, what do you want me to do for you master?" Max asked, trying desperately to stop staring at his intense blue eyes. He is so cute, her mind whispered. What the hell am I thinking? She berated herself.

Logan's mind was following similar paths. To distract himself Logan got up and reached for a folder on a shelf above his computer. He was in the process of bringing it to Max when suddenly his legs gave out.

Since regaining the ability to walk two weeks ago, his legs had been regaining strength but he did have the odd relapses. Max reached out to catch him but she seriously underestimated his mass weight and ended up on top of him.

Max gasped in shock. She could feel his well-toned body underneath her. Logan gently trailed a hand through her hair, unable to stop himself. Max tried to get up. It was a simple matter the rational part of her mind commented. Get up solider! But her body wasn't responding to the command. Her lips moved of their own accord, trailing paths down his neck. Logan let out a gasp of pleasure.

Suddenly the phone rang.

The shrill sound snapped Max out of her pleasure filled haze. She leapt up hastily as Logan tried to fathom what had happened.

"Max I..."

"Gotta blaze," she said cutting him off.
