AN: ok here is the next chapter, FINALLY.
"Logan, Logan wake up now!" Max whispered urgently
"Max what's wrong, are you ok, is the baby ok?" Logan was petrified by the tone in Max's voice.
"You moved your leg." She said ignoring the question.
"Really, already?" He sounded like a little boy excited about the snow.
"What the hell do you mean by that!" She went right from whispering to shouting.
"Max I'm going to tell you everything, but please keep your voice down, Zack is sleeping in the guestroom."
"You better start talking in a hurry, and if I were you I wouldn't be telling me to keep my voice down again." Her voice was lower but also very harsh.
"Zack suggested he could help with my legs, he transfused me last night. We were thinking there was a chance that his DNA would be more compatible with mine, and my body wouldn't reject it. I just wanted to stand next to you when we were married."
"Why did you keep it from me?" Her voice was still like ice.
"I didn't want you to get your hopes up."
"Bullshit!" She was yelling again "You know better then that so what the hell was the real reason?"
"Max it was my idea." Zack said poking his head into their room. He had woken when she first yelled and heard their fight. He decided to not let Logan take the blame and to put a stop to this. "I told him not to tell you."
"He still should have told me." Max now went from yelling to near tears 'damn hormones' she thought to herself.
"I know I'm sorry Max, I was going to tell you I was just going to wait until I knew something." Logan said "I love you, I'm sorry honey." He said and lightly kissed her lips.
"Can you feel your legs now?" It was a small statement, but it was her way of saying that she forgave him.
"A little I think." He said uncertainly. Zack saw that they were all set and quietly slipped back to the guestroom. He realized how much he had changed. He did something nice for Logan, and it wasn't something for Max, to keep her happy. He realized that after he got over the fact that max loved him, he liked the guy, and he did respect any one who could keep up with the x-5's. And he had helped them out, he kept Max safe. He could see that was and would continue to be Logan's number one priority, Max. He also had a very well thought kitchen, Zack thought as he opened the freezer and took out a pint of ice crème. If he had friends he imagined they would be like Logan, he thought as he started to eat.
"Can you feel this?" Max asked as she kissed Logan's knee. He didn't respond but she looked up and saw a smile on his face. "See now I don't know if you could feel it or you just want me." She said with a grin.
"I could feel it, I'm not imagining it Max, I felt that it was different, but it was there." She looked almost disappointed by his answer, which didn't escape him. He leaned over and kissed her pasionatly. "And for the record, I always want you."
Logan was healing rapidly, by that morning he was able to stand to cook. He couldn't take a step yet, but he had enough strength to stand up and stay standing for a while. He was just finishing making French toast for breakfast when they heard a nock at the door. "Max can you let Bling and Claire in?" Logan called into the next room where Max and Zack were fighting over the tv like children. They called Bling early to have him come check out Logan's legs. He, however, had promised his new girlfriend Claire that they would spend the morning together shopping, so they had agreed to come over and have breakfast their together before going out. Logan's penthouse had been so busy lately with Max now there with him, and ever since the first time Max and Logan met Claire she and Max had become good friends. So now the two of them were there quite frequently as well. And to think a year ago Logan had been all alone in this place.
Max gave up the tv battle with Zack and handed him the remote getting up and going into the next room to get the door. "Hey Bling, hey Claire." Max said letting them in. "Did you get him to buy a suit for tomorrow yet?" Max asked Claire.
"No that is what we are shopping for today, nothing like putting it off till the last second right girl?" Came Claire's sarcastic reply that was acomonied by a glare in Bling's direction.
"Well he'll have you to help him at least"
"Yeah but I know nothing about fashion, but I figure they will be looking at you not my boy so it doesn't really matter all that much as long as he looks presentable."
"Damn straight they will be looking at me, it is my day!" She said a little overjoyed thinking that tomorrow at this time she would be getting ready to walk down the aisle.
"Our day!" Logan called from the next room
"Damn he must have gotten some of that enhanced hearing too." Max muttered under her breath.
"What?" Claire anxiously asked.
"Oh nothing" Max brushed aside the inquiry into her slip up, she and Claire were so close she always forgot to watch what she said around her. They all made their way into the kitchen, amazed to see Logan standing there cooking breakfast. "I told you to take it easy until Sam got to take a look at your legs or at least Bling did."
"She's right man, you don't want to do damage now do you?" Logan grudgingly sat back down in the wheel chair at his friends words they were right, he didn't want to screw this up. "Logan take a break let me take a look and see how your legs are doing."
"Breakfast is done, food first exam later." Logan said moving the last of the French toaste from the pan to the serving plate
"Fine."
"Hey lazy ass come in here breakfast is ready." Max called to her brother still in the other room watching television. Max was setting the table with Claire and Bling was helping Logan get food to the table. "You remember Bling." Max said to Zack as he entered the room and they almost bumped into each other.
"Yeah hi." Zack muttered caring mostly about the food.
"Hey"
"Anyway Claire over there is his girlfriend." Max said Claire turned around and looked up. The kitchen fell silent at the sound of the breaking glass, Clair's glass she had just dropped.
"Zack? What the hell? I don't know how you found me here Zack but I am not leaving Seattle!" Claire practically yelled at Zack.
"Johndy what hell are you doing here?" the CO questioned.
"Johndy?" Max asked in a strangled whisper looking over at her.
"Yeah that's my real name it's a long story. But Max, how do you know Zack?"
"God you two are dumb, Johndy Max, Max Johndy. I can't believe you two didn't recognize each other."
"It has been 11 years Zack, I didn't know who you were at first remember?" Max pointed out to her brother.
"Max?" Johndy questioned in disbelief.
"Hey baby sister," Max replied smilingand Johndy started to hug.
"So Johndy you want to answer my question yet?" Zack practicly yelled extreamly upset that Johndy was here.
"I'm with Bling I didn't know that she was Max max Zack honest." Johndy knew this wouldn't go well.
"Johndy this isn't safe, were going now, and your moving away from Seattle tomarow." Zack barked out his orders.
"No." Bling spoke up in a stern voice. "I know you can kill me if you want to but I don't care. You can't make her leave." Bling's words upset Zack to say the least, but for his sisters sakes he tried to stay calm and not snap his neck
And it doesn't matter what her name is, I love her and there is no way you get to talk to her like that or tell her what to do."
"You don't understand, you don't know what she is. and she doesn't belong here." Zack tried to explain it to Bling calmly.
"Like hell I don't, I have known about who you guy's are for a year now And Claire or Johndy, it doesn't matter what her name is, I know who she is, I just know a little better now. And the only thing I know about where she belongs is that it isn't back there, it is where she decides she belongs."
"I belong with you." Johndy says taking Bling's hand.
"That's it you want to make this mistake then I'm done." Zack turns and walks out of the kitchen Max on his heals as he walked to the front door.
"Zack please don't do this." She pleaded with him. "Zack." Still nothing "599!"
"Don't call me that." Zack turned around. Max glad she finally got him to stop.
"Zack don't leave please, if for nothing else then for me, you were going to walk me down the aisle remember?" Max was near tears again.
"Maxie it was risky enough with two of us here but three it is just to big of a risk why don't we just put out an add escaped manticore fugitives gathering."
"Zack it's not that big of a risk, besides any shit goes down there will be three of us to take care of it." Max was pleading with him. "I just got you back as a brother, I don't think I can loose you again Zack. You are my brother, I need you, and Johndy needs you. Not to tell us how to live, but to be part of our lives." Zack stopped pulling and let Max drag him back into the kitchen, those last few steps away from Manticore and towards a real life.
AN: for any of you that were reading this and still are even though it is months old first of all yay and second remember how I said I would update in a few days well that turned into months when life happened. First of all I am very sorry. Two life should be a lot less hectic for the next few months so if I get reviews there will be a new chapter at least once a week, plus I am going to try to fix a lot of what I have already written. And as always I am open to any ideas that do not involve hurting Logan or m/a because both of those are just sick. Anyway new chapter onn Tuesday if I get the reviews.
