Confrontation
Logan sat at his desk thinking over his conversation with Asha in his head.
"Have you heard from her?"
"She still won't talk to me."
"Give her time. She's just scared."
"Mmmm. I'm the one who almost died last week."
"You don't think that wasn't scary for her? She's a loner. She's not used to worrying about anyone else. This relationship stuff, it's all new to her. It's new to the both of them."
"Both?"
"Her and Alec."
"Right."
It makes sense two loners together, why not?
Once again Alec had proved to be the better person for her... damn him.
Oh well, better call her about the new info on White
888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888
.... "You know, this is the second time he's paged you in like ten minutes. Don't you think you oughta call the guy back already"
"Why don't you mind your own business? Hurry up."
Max sighed inwardly.
The last thing I need is Alec knowing about my lie, and telling Logan the truth.
God, it felt like crap, planning out the best way to be deceitful towards Logan.
Alec's cell phone rang.
Crap.
Alec answered his stupid phone, "Yeah?"
Logan almost cringed at the sound of his voice, the voice that had no doubt swooned Max into leaving the cripple for a real man.
"Hey, Alec. It's Logan."
Alec smiled knowingly at Max, "Hey, buddy!"
Buddy? He calls me buddy? God I want to rip his fucking vocal cords out.
Alec continued talking "We were just talking about you."
Oh, that's comforting. Talking about what I wonder? What a fool I am for thinking I ever had a chance.
He calmed himself before talking, "Then Max is with you?"
"Oh, yeah, yeah, she's right here. Hang on a sec."
Max mouthed "No!" at Alec but he just smiled and handed her the phone.
She gave him a dirty look and shoved him before speaking into it.
How am I going to push him away if he calls me, God I hate this
"Hey."
It felt good to hear her voice even if he had to hear Alec's first.
"Hi."
At the sound of his voice she almost caved and blurted everything; she missed him so bad.
But her moment of weakness only lasted about a second.
She couldn't afford weakness.
She had to be strong.
Her tone was completely business, no feeling, well besides being pissed at Alec, "What is it, Logan?"
Was that annoyance? ....
Well excuse me for intruding on your date with Mr. Perfect
His jealousy was as bitter, but he kept it out of his voice; he wouldn't let her know how badly he wanted her back. He had been a fool for showing his emotions for her to read.
He wasn't a fool anymore.
"I think there might be a connection between White and the transgenic on the news. I have hoverdrone footage that puts White at the scene."
God, I can't take this; I have to end this quickly
"He was probably looking to take him down when the cops showed up."
"I don't think so. He just sat in his car and watched. In fact, he looked pretty pleased with how it went down."
"Doesn't make any sense. The government pays White to keep the transgenic thing under wraps."
"That's right, unless White's taking his orders from somebody else."
"Like one of his breeding-cult buddies."
Great, White has to stir up some more shit, fun, fun, fun
"We know they hate transgenics. Could be they've decided to try and turn the public against you."
"Maybe."
I can't take it anymore; I need to see her, to confront her when I'm sober... Plus this stuff with White really is serous.
"Now, listen, Max..."
Here we go
"I really think we should get together and talk about this."
"Logan..." please don't make this any harder then it already is.
"Just business, nothing more." Please, come. Please
"I can't." I have to be strong.
"Max..." I need you.
"I'll look into it, tell you if I find something. Until then..."
It has to be done "please don't call me."
He heard the dial tone ring in his ear. Mocking him, laughing at his failure his failure.
He would always be the fool.
