A/N: Here is Chapter 2

A/N: Here is Chapter 2. Sorry it took me so long I had problems uploading it. My computer deleted the chapter and I had to write it again. Thanks to everyone who reviewed. Also I don't own Dark Angel and the words to the song belong to whoever wrote them.

Logan was just about to page Max when he heard the roar of her motorcycle on the streets of Seattle. He put down the phone and instead started pouring two glasses of the wine he had started earlier that day. He was placing the glasses of wine on the table as he heard her picking the lock on his door. He finished pouring the wine and turned to go and meet her. She was stood right behind him. She was wearing a white jumper which showed of every curve of her beautiful body. Her trousers were also new. Logan could tell this because they looked like they had been picked for fashion rather than function, this was not true to the rest of her wardrobe. Her dark curly hair was tied back loosely and it looked as beautiful as the rest of her. In her hand Max was holding what appeared to be a present.

Logan couldn't believe she had remembered. He hadn't reminded her and although she had a good memory he didn't think she would have remembered.

"Looks like I got here at the right time." Max said referring to the smell of chicken filling Logan's apartment.

"Not quite. Dinner won't be ready for another 10 minutes." Logan said not wanting her to think she had done something right.

"Oh well. It gives us time to talk." Max said.

"About what?" Logan asked pretending that he didn't know that Max had remembered.

"Your day. Did you have a good time?" She asked.

"Yes thank you. I went shopping and brought some chicken which we are going to eat in about 5 minutes." He said trying to avoid the subject of his birthday.

Max wasn't going to let him, "I mean because of your birthday."

He had known this already but didn't let her know that. "I have a tradition were I avoid talking about birthdays and forget they happen."

"Fair enough, we will follow your tradition and eat dinner as normal." She replied. Logan was wondering how she would do this because of the gift but the oven timer stopped him from dwelling on the subject.

While Logan was busy serving dinner Max silently slipped into the dining room and placed the tape in his tape player. She had been planning to do this anyway as she couldn't face giving it to Logan herself, he would think she cared about him. She had to stop herself from thinking that she did. She placed the accompanying card near the CD player and went back through to sit down for dinner.

Logan served dinner but it needed to stand for a minute as it was too hot. The pair sat down and sipped the wine which Logan had poured earlier. Max was wondering whether she should get the tape back before it was too late. She told herself it was now or never and turned her attention to the rest of the night. She thought that after dinner she would probably swing by Crash and hang with the girls for a while. Logan was also thinking about after dinner but he was letting his imagination get away with him, the outfit Max was wearing didn't help either.

A couple of minutes later the pair were eating dinner and Max was once again amazed by Logan's talent in the kitchen. They weren't talking about anything in general just about each others recent activities. They finished dinner and Max didn't leave straight away. They had a game of chess first and Logan lost in one of the most humiliating defeats ever. After that Max realised that Logan wasn't in the mood for chess and left him to sulk by himself. She headed over to Crash.

After Max left Logan sat down at his computer and began to work. 5 minutes later he realised what it was he believed was missing. Music. He headed over to his tape player and turned on his favourite tape.

At the same time Logan was doing this Max was heading back to his place bored of Crash as Cindy and Kendra and all the other girls had already gone home by the time she got there. She got up to his penthouse at the same time the music started.

Logan was surprised as instead of his tape of classical music a male voice came out of his CD player. He listened to the words

Everybody's looking for that something

One thing that makes their life complete

You find it in the strangest places

Places you never knew it could be

Logan listened to the words. His first thought was one of Max, but he dismissed that idea as quick as he could. Max herself was out side Logan's apartment wondering if she should leave before he noticed her.

Some find it in the faces of their children

Some find it in their lovers eyes

Who can deny the joy it brings

When you find that special thing

You're flying without wings

Some find it sharing every morning

Some find it in their solitary live

You find it in the works of others

A simple line can make you laugh or cry

Logan couldn't believe it when he laid eyes on the card from Max. "Hope this clears things up. Love Max" He though about the words still being sung in the background.

You find it in the deepest friendships

The kind you cherish all your life

And when you know how much that means

You've found that special thing

You're flying without wings

Max sat outside the door hoping Logan had got the idea. She still couldn't believe that she had gone through with it.

So impossible as they may seem

You've got to fight for every dream

'Cause who's to know

Which one you let go

Would have made your life complete

Max thinks about me like this. Why didn't I know? Logan was sat down listening to the singer. Had Max wanted to say this before and not known how or had he been ignoring her? The next verse started and Logan was drawn in.

Well for me it's waking up beside you

To watch the sun rise on your face

To know that I can say I Love you

In any given time or place

It's little things that only I know

Those are the things that make you mine

And it's like flying without wings

'Cause you're my special thing

I'm flying without wings

As the song began to end Logan wanted to call Max. He decided not to as he wanted her to come to him. The song was drawing to a close now.

You're the place my life begins

And you'll be where it ends

I'm flying without wings

And that's the joy you bring

I'm flying without wings

The song ended and Max wondered what Logan was doing. Did he know that it was from her? Did he care? She wanted to go in and see what he thought.

Logan wondered about Max. He decided he couldn't wait until the morning or whenever she decided to come and see her. He was going to go to her. He opened the door to his apartment. He was shocked to discover Max standing there. It was as if she had been waiting for him. Had she?

"Max?" he asked wanting to make sure she was alright.

Her usual confident demeanour gone. She wasn't expecting to see him, "Logan?"
