A/N: I am very sorry that this took so long for me to get this chapter out but I have been busy. I should have the next chapter out pretty soon because we break off from school tomorrow (Wednesday) after then it could be a chapter a day.
Max
and Logan finished putting all their things away and they started to get ready
for bed.
"I'm
going in the bathroom first," Max shouted through to Logan.
"No
you're not, I am," Logan replied scrambling over furniture to get to the door
first. Of course Max beat him to it and he was forced to sit back down and
watch more TV. Logan was trying to concentrate on the program which thankfully
he understood but as soon as the shower started running his mind began to
wander. The first place it reached was the plane and the man who had passed Max
off as his wife, the next thing was
Cindy who always insisted that Max and Logan were together and would probably
double her efforts after this short trip. Then his mind wandered to were he
didn't want it to Max in the shower, Max in the shower with him. The water
stopped and with it Logan's thoughts. Logan heard the door click and Max walked
out.
"There
you go I tried to be as quick as I could." She joked. Logan gathered his things
together and headed off to the bathroom leaving Max behind. Max was left to her
thoughts but she chose to ignore the nagging in the back of her head about
Logan. After a minute the nagging became so loud that Max couldn't ignore it.
She thought of how easily he had travelled half way around the world to keep her
safe, she thought how they had ended up in Paris. Original Cindy wasn't going
to let this drop for a long time, the city of lovers and Max and Logan were
there together. It was just a coincidence though, Logan had booked places on
the first flight out of the country, and she had heard him. Or had she? Max
remembered how she hadn't heard all of the conversation. Did Logan bring her
here on purpose? The thought was quickly dispersed from her mind as the
bathroom door clicked open and Logan came out. He was only wearing a pair of
old tracksuit bottoms and Max couldn't help but look at his muscular chest.
Logan
didn't notice Max looking at him as he was too busy worrying about the
situation with the beds. He didn't believe Max when she said she didn't mind
and he was sure that he was going to cause her to have even less sleep than she
needed. He decided that he couldn't do anything to change it and decided to
make coffee for him and Max.
Max
slowly sipped the coffee that Logan had brought her, she wanted to break the
silence between them because it was becoming more uncomfortable by the minute.
"Logan?"
Max asked to get his attention.
"Yeah,"
he replied.
"What
are we doing tomorrow." She asked, genuinely curious. She figured Logan would
have everything planned like he had with everything else.
"I
don't know, we will probably do the sight seeing thing for the next couple of
days. I hear that Paris has some excellent shops." Max glared at Logan for just
suggesting that they go shopping, "Of course we won't be going anywhere near
them, this trip has cost me enough already." Max's glare turned into a look of
guilt.
On
seeing Max's look Logan said, "Since when have I ever cared about how much
things cost? Besides everyone's been telling me that I need a holiday." He added
silently "You're worth it anyway."
"I
suppose you're right, I'm feeling a bit tired after the flight so I'm gonna go
to bed, try not to wake me up when you join me." Logan winced at this last
statement but nodded anyway. Then he watched Max stand up and spill the now
cold cup of coffee all over her cotton nightshirt.
"Shit,"
she said. Logan was already on his feet, "Are you OK?"
"Yeah
I'm fine but I've trashed this nightshirt," Logan rolled his eyes at Max's
statement.
"You
can borrow one of my shirts for now if you want, just help yourself." Logan
offered.
"Thanks,"
Max said before disappearing into the bedroom to get changed for bed again.
Max
didn't expect to fall asleep, especially after the amount she slept on the
flight but within 5 minutes she was asleep. Logan came through a quarter of an
hour afterwards to find Max fast asleep in his shirt. Quietly he slipped into
bed but he didn't fall asleep as easily as Max. he spent 5 minutes trying to
resist putting his arms round the raven haired beauty next to him. He couldn't
believe how much being on holiday with Max was affecting him, he always felt
this way about her but the city of love seemed to be making the feelings worse.
Logan eventually resisted his feelings and drifted off to sleep
