I'm baaaack you guys! This is a very special chapter dedicated to...all of you. By the way, thanks for wishing me luck with my stuff, I'll be needing it. Anyways, here it is for you the next chapter.



Sixth chapter: Isn't it ironic...don't you think?



" Well...we should show them who we really are, no masks or anything. That'll teach 'em a lesson." Max said proudly while Alyssa pondered the idea.

" Ok, I guess we could give it a try." She joked with a teasing smile.

" Come on, let's get the party started!"

Max shoved Alyssa out of the bathroom and they both went in to the living room with big smiles on their faces. The girls all stared at Alyssa's pajamas and giggled behind her back. Alyssa noticed this and tried very hard not to punch them all.

" So, now that Max and Alyssa are back with us, lets start this. Our first game will be a a talent contest, each girl will pair of with her mother and form a team. You have to prepare a song and sing it, the best performance wins." Gladys suggested and everyone nodded.



Meanwhile Logan finished typing some information in a file and turned off his computer, the apartment was silent, too silent for his liking. He liked hearing Alyssa's music blaring on the stereo and Max's sarcastic responses. Anyways, they weren't home so he had to deal with it, he settled on his comfortable couch and enjoyed a rare moment of peace and tranquility watching television.

His peace didn't last because there was insisting knocking on his door, he al ost ran to the door just to get the knocking to stop. He had expected to see Max and Ally even Original Cindy but he'd never in a million years expected to see the face of the person that had caused him so much pain and loneliness. The man had grown older, his hair that had been black was now white, his face had grown even harder and colder if possible. Logan gulped and stood there not knowing what to say or do.

" Well Logan Cale, have I rendered you speechless?" The man asked in his icy voice, Logan bit his lower lip. " Well...are you going to invite me in or do I have to stay here all night?" He asked impatiently seeing that Logan wasn't moving a muscle.

Logan on the hand wished he would have stayed far away from them, he would rather have him where he'd never have to worry about him. But he was there and he couldn't show weakness, it would only make him stronger, so he stood aside and let him in.

The man scanned the place with skeptic eyes and a devilish smile on his old lips, it scared the hell out of Logan. He closed the door and cleared his throat.

" So Mr. Arthur Jameson, to what do I owe the honor of your visit?" He asked nervously, he thanked God that Max and Alyssa weren't there to se him.

" Mr. Cale, let's face the truth. We both know what I'm doing here, you've had something that belongs to me for a long time and I want it back." He said with a stone cold expression.

" There is nothing here that belongs to you Mr. Jameson so you can leave if that's all you came to say." Logan headed to the door but something the man said made him stop dead in his tracks.

" I want Alyssa. She's my granddaughter and she deserves to be with us. My wife and I have everything she needs." He took a picture from the table, it was a picture of Alyssa enveloped in Max's arms. " She's big, who's the kid beside her?"

logan almost laughed at this, he actually thought that Max was his granddaughter. He would have laughed if the situation wasn't so uncomfortable.

" Alyssa's the small one, that's Max, my girlfriend." He said in a protective tone, crossing hs arms on his chest.

The older man laughed at this and put the picture down, " So Logan, I see you're not done dating kids." He said in a deaming tone.

" It's none of your business what I do with my life and she's not a kid." He replied dryly.

" Looks fairly young to me and while my granddaughter lives here it is my business. So are you going to make this harder, I don't intend to take her out of your life forever. You will see her...sometimes." He sat on Logan's couch and gave him a teasing look.

" We both know that the moment she's out that door I'll never see her again, so why don't you take your good intentions and shove it." Logan walked to the door and opened it giving him a hard look.

The man finally complied and walked to the door, when he passed by Logan her stopped. " I'll leave but trust me, this won't be the last time you'll see me and I swear that next time, Alyssa will be coming with me." And with that he left proudly.

Logan shut the door and sighed with relief, he went to the bathroom and took a bath, after that he sat on his bed wandering what his girls were doing and missing them even more.

" I'm coming up so you betta get this party started..." Alyssa finished her performance earning applause from the amused group.

" Well, looks like we have our winner!" Gladys announced and Alyssa and Max hugged.

The rest of the night they continued winning, they won a basket ball game, chess, and make up contests. They even won charades and the game of life, it was humiliating for the rest of the girls.

Finally when everybody was sleeping Max found herself more awke than ever and she had this uncontrollable urge to talk to Logan. She used her stealth and went to living room where the phone was and called him.

" Hey." Came Logan's groggy voice, even half asleep he sounded sexy.

" Hey yourself dude, what'cha doin'?" She teased him.

" Uh, I don't know, maybe what normal people do at...2:00 am, you know sleep." He teased back grateful that she had been thinking of him enough to call him.

" Well, I'm not normal and I don't sleep." She said trying to be mad.

" Sorry, how's it going? How's Ally?" He changed subjects succesfully.

" Everyone's asleep, everything was fine and she was great." She stated proudly.

" Max?" After Jameson's visit Logan was insecure, the man was powerful and carried a lot of hate. Max sensed his nervousness and started worrying.

" What's wrong?"

" I-I...miss you, that's all." He tried unsuccessfully to cover up the truth but Max knew him too well to fall for that.

" What is it Logan? I know there's somethin' going on. Now are you gonna tell me or do I have to go over there and beat it out of you?" She said in her ' I'll-kick-your-ass- mode.

" Ok I'll tell you, but ou can't tell Ally. The thing is that Arthur Jameson came to visit me today, he wants Ally back Max." His voice trembled as he said it.

" Isn't that her...?"

" Yeah, her very powerful grandfather. I can't lose her now Max, I can't." Max felt his pain and tried to be strong for him.

" Don't worry Logan, you won't lose her, I won't let that happen. I promise." She reassured him.

In that moment Logan knew just how much he loved that woman and he felt the need to let her know.

" Max, I love you so much baby." He whispered to the phone, there wan an uncomfortable pause and he thought he'd scared her off.

" I love you too Logan." She said and hung up.
