Ok guys, a promise is a promise. This is the second chapter of a story
that I'me very proud of. Please remember to review.
Chapter 2: Time of the angels.
When they finally entered the apartment, Dylan was already asleep. Max took her to the guestroom and placed her on the bed gently, she stood there watching her carefully and realized that Manticore wasn't the only one that could turn a child's life to pure hell. Logan approached her and hugged her waist.
" What are we going to do with her Logan? She can't go back to that wman or she'll kill her." Logan recognized the worry in her voice and held her tighter.
" What do you want to do?" He asked her softly. " We'll do anything you want."
" Really?" She turned to face him and gave him a look he understood perfectly.
" We'll keep her." She smiled like the sun and hugged him tighlty.
" I love you Logan."
" And I love you too baby. Speaking of babies, we should do something about her condition." They broke apart and Max at on the bed.
" I'll wash her but you gotta get her some clothes." She said assuming her role. Logan smiled, nodded and went to his office to make a phone call.
When he came back, Max had finished cleaning and curing her. She had the baby clad in a small t-shirt she had and was holding her in her arms. Logan sat beside her on the bed and looked at the baby, who seemed relaxed.
" I hungwy." She said in her baby voice, both Logan and Max chuckled.
" Oh God, not another Max!" He exclaimed in a teasing tone which earned a playfull slap from Max.
" Shut up and make something for her." She said laughing.
Logan went in to the kitchen o make dinner while Max stayed in the bedroom with Dylan. The toddler gazed lovingly at Max with a shy smile palying on her baby lips.
" What are you staring at?" Max asked softly.
" Mommy. My mommy." She replied hiding her face under Max's neck. Max was surprised but glad. She'd never experienced something so sweet like a child calling her mom. She knew she's have to change her lifestyle, because she had a daughter to take care of now.
" A daughter. My daughter." She smiled at the sound of it on her mouth and kissed Dylan's soft cheeks.
She heard Logan calling her from the kitchen and stopped tickling Dylan, she looked t the still giggling child and kissed her cheeks again. " Let's go see what daddy made for dinner."
Logan was taken aback when Max came in to the kitchen holding a gigglish Dylan in her arms. It was hard to think that just hours ago she was a scared child. Max sat on he table and placed Dylan on her lap.
" What fo' dinna daddy?" Logan almost dropped the plates in his hands when Dylas asked him that.
" She called me daddy?" Logan placed the plates on the table and looked at Max. Max smiled as Logan took Dylan in his arms and spinned around the room. " You called me daddy? You did, you called me daddy!!!"
Dylan giggled all the time and Logan held her close, he rubbed her small back and gave Max a meaningful look and she smiled.
" You better let her eat or she'll pass out." She teased him. Logan gave her to Max and gave a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
" I didn't know what to make her." He said at Max's look.
Fortunately Dylan loved it and ate it all, she drank her milk and watched tv with Max while Logan cleaned up the kitchen. Then he joined them and they watched a kiddie's movie until Dylan fell asleep in Max's arms. Max placed her softly on the bed and covered her with the blanket.
" There you go, snug like a bug on a rug." She whispered softly to the sleeping child.
" Good night Dylan." Logan kissed her forehead and turned off the light. Max left the door slightly opened and followed Logan out of the room.
Back in their bedroom they got ready for bed while they talked about the day's event. Max talked while Logan brushed his teeth.
" Are you sure you have no problem with Dylan staying here?" She asked.
Logan came out of the bathroom and got in to bed next to Max. " Baby, you saw how I reacted when she called me daddy. I've only been that happy in one ocassion and it was when we made love for the first time. Of course I'm sure that I want her to stay." Max smiled and kissed him passionately.
" I love you Logan." She whispered in to his ear.
That night, like every other night, they made love until their bodies ached from so much love.
The next day came almost too soon and Max had to go back to work. She got up silently and took a shower, after dressing she went in to the guestroom and found a wide-awake Dylan laying comfortably on the bed.
" Hey sweetie, good morning." She said from the door. Dylan stretched her arms to Max and she went to the bed and gathered her in her arms.
" Good mowning mommy." She said cheerfully.
" Did you sleep good?" Max asked her kissing her forehead.
" Big bed. I like it." She replied throwing herself on the bed and jumping up and down.
" Ok, I get the picture. Now, I have to go to work soon but you'll stay with daddy ok?" Dylan seemed sad for a minute but smiled when she heard mentioning Logan. " Let's go wake him up, mommy didn't let him sleep much last night." She took Dylan with her and smiled to herself when she remembered the past night in Logan's arms.
She placed Dylan on their bed and motioned her to Logan, at first she held back but then she changed her mind and jumped on him.
" Wake up daddy, it's mowning now!" She screamed.
Logan groaned and grabbed Dylan, his eyes stiil shut tightly. " I bet it was one Max's brilliant ideas." Max chuckled and kissed him.
" Gee, now why do you say that?" Logan grabbed her and pulled her down to him.
" Because I know you." he replied and kissed her hard, she responded eagerly and they only stopped when Dylan giggled. Logan grabbed her and tickled her belly. " Well, aren't you a gigglish little girl."
" Well, I gotta go or Normal will ride my ass all day." Max said kissing them both and getting up.
" I'll kick his ass." Logan replied teasing. " Wait, I'll make you breakfast!" He called to her.
" I'll atke something and eat on the way, but I'll bet Dylan is really hungry. I'll be back for lunch though. Bye!" She replied from the door.
Ok kid, this leaves just you and me." He told Dylan.
The rest of the morning he made breakfast, bathed Dylan and recieved the clothes he had ordered the previous night. He also did a little work on Eyes Only while Dylan played with her new toys in the living room.
So, what'd you think? Loved it? Hate it? Please tell me, I need to know. Next chapter will be seeing one important detail that I think should be furhter explored on the show, after all, it holds the key to all the important stuff.
