Alec woke in a haze to find himself tangled in the bed sheets, another's bed sheets at that. He checked his surroundings quickly and almost fell out of bed, when his cell phone shrilled.
Alec tumbled to the floor and rushed to find his cell phone.
"This better be damn good!" Alec said as he rubbed his eyes and sat back down on the bed.
Amy had been shocked out of her sleep when Alec had fallen off of the bed. A sly smile soon spread across her face as Alec sat back on the bed.
"Alec this is Jeff, I think I have it...I think I just might really have it. Why don't you come back again today at around four. Is that okay buddy?" Jeff said happily.
"Sure, sure but yea whatever that's fine I'll be there. Thanks."
"Sorry to wake you. Its been my pleasure. Bye."
"Bye."
***************
The quiet hum of the computers and the refrigerator were all that could be heard above the occasional clink of a fork hitting a plate. The meal was delicious, yet they still hadn't spoken a word since the argument, and the silence was thick with a deafening doubt and fear. They both wanted to 'beat the bitch,' but they didn't know just how each could hold out before one or both of them broke. Doubt rang its truth throughout their ears as they tried to fight it and enjoy the presence of each other. They both knew that fate had its way of being too cruel, especially to them. Knowing they couldn't stop fate any more than they could stop the sun from rising, they decided to take a tacit vow; a vow that they would stick to for the whole ordeal. Max let out a sigh and took a large sip of her drink.
Logan's eyes never left the plate of his food, except to take quick and hidden glances at her. Max on the other hand sat and looked around the room. She had spent so much time in this penthouse, that it had become like a second home to her. She knew that it was going to take a fair amount of strength and ambition to get the cure, but this ever present fear sat deep within the depths of her soul eating away like a hungry beast. It savored on the flavor of her fear, and drank hungrily at her uncertainty. Max sleepily brought her eyes to rest on those of the man she loved. He caught her glance and was trapped in the depths he found there. He could easily get lost in her eyes and what he found there in them, but he had to contain himself. His eyes spoke words his mouth could not, and a silent conversation commenced. Feelings that could not be conveyed by any language were spoken through their eyes and they were held captive by one another. Finally Max closed and spoke.
"I'll talk to that lab tech today. I think he might be able to help us. Plus I haven't been to Terminal City in a while, and we all know that Mole just loves to be in charge." Logan let a small chuckle escape his lips as he held his gaze on Max.
"You probably should...but would you be willing to go out to dinner with me?" Logan asked shyly.
"Logan, are you sure? I'd love to." Max was shocked, but happy nonetheless.
"I'm positive. Be here at seven. I'll be ready and waiting for you. Oh and dress up a bit, this place is rather nice. But, I know that anything you wear would suffice. You are stunning Max, I hope you know that." Logan made his way a bit closer to Max, never letting his eyes drop the connection they had.
"I'll be here, and thanks for the heads up. You know you always do go with over the top flattery.
Logan grinned, his face displaying his handsome features. "Oh of course. I speak no lies though."
Max rolled her eyes and got up.
"I'm gonna go see how Original Cindy is and I'll be back tomorrow." Max hurriedly walked to the door and threw a sly smile back at Logan.
Logan returned the smile and turned to follow her. "Max, I understand too...you know about the whole telling me how you felt when I walked away from you. I probably shouldn't have walked away. I know that your new to this whole dating and loving bit, but truth is so am I. I mean sure I've had girl friends and I've even been married once, but it never compared to the way I feel about you Max." Logan glumly admitted that he had in fact made some big mistakes, but that he really did love her.
Max felt her heart wrench and she choked back the tears that threatened to spill. "Logan, I..."
Logan hastily cut her off, "Max, there is no need for you to try and justify...because I already know. I do love you Max, that you shouldn't doubt, just know that I am in this for the long haul." A smile spread across his face.
Max smiled shyly back at him. She was still trying to abate the feeling she had flowing through her at the moment.
"Me too, but I really should get going. They may think you're holding me hostage or something." Max joked.
Logan's smiled playfully and winked at him, "I would never!" He acted shocked.
"Yea sure Logan. Gotta bounce. Later."
" Remember be here at seven! Bye!" He called after her as she entered the lift and the doors closed quickly.

Alec glared at his phone and threw it onto his jacket and jeans that lay piled in the corner.
Moments later Alec lay in a heap on the floor next to his clothing.
"What the hell!" Alec quickly stood only to slightly stumble back onto the bed.
Amy was rolling in a fit of laughter over the bed. Alec glared at her. It was too early to be pulling fast ones on him. He jumped on the bed and with one swift movement he had rolled her off the bed and onto the floor. Alec smiled in victory and sat with his arms in the air. Amy quickly began to cry. Alec's face had gone from victorious and proud to nervous and scared. He quickly got off the bed and rushed to Amy.
"What's the matter? Did I hurt you? Can you get up? How can I help?" Alec's tongue raced a mile a minute as he spoke.
Amy let out a hearty laugh at the sight of Alec being dissolved into a ball of worry.
"You're a sucker!" Amy continued laughing. Her face began to change from its usual slightly pale tone, to a now cherry red.
"I am not!" Alec said as he got up. He stood up next to her and crossed his arms.
Amy stopped laughing and a cheeky smile spread across her face.
"What now?" He asked.
Amy looked up at Alec's face and then back down to where it had initially settled. Her smile seemed to get bigger.
"WHAT!" He was starting to get annoyed.
"Oh nothing just enjoying the view."
Alec looked down at her in confusion. That's when he noticed he was still in his boxers, and from where Amy was, she had the perfect view.
Alec stood still and unmoving. He smiled back down at her. Amy's smile quickly dissolved as she saw the devilment in his eyes.
Amy stood up quickly and got back into bed, rolling herself in the blankets.
"I should get going." Alec walked back to the other side of the bed grabbing his jacket and cell phone, quickly placing everything where it was suppose to go.
Not a moment sooner than Alec had placed his pants and jacket on, Stephanie and Joey raced into the room and jumped onto the bed.
"Hi Alec!" Joey said as he lunged himself into Alec's arms.
"Hey there." Alec caught the boy and spun him around once and tossed him onto the bed. Joey laughed hysterically at this.
"Well, I'll see you later." Alec said to Amy as he made his way to the door.
"Okay." Amy nodded, as Stephanie cuddled next to her.
"Alec! Can I go wif you? Pwease!" Joey said as he jumped higher and higher on the bed.
Alec looked cautiously at Amy, and she just shrugged.
"Well I have to go to Terminal City."
"PWEASE!"
******************
Max sat on the sofa next to Original Cindy.
"So you and roller boy gonna go out on a date?" Original Cindy inquired.
"Yes, and don't call him roller boy." Max picked up her cup of coffee and drank it down hurriedly.
"Okay, ya know where lova boyz gonna spend his chedda on ya at?"
"Nope, I don't have a clue."
"What you gonna wear?"
"I was thinking of a black slacks and that light green mossy colored shirt I have. I dunno." Max shrugged. She hadn't really put much thought into just what exactly she would wear.
"Boo, ya trippin, the boy is goin through all this trouble and you don't even know what ta wear."
Original Cindy frowned and grabbed Max's hand.
"Boo, we gonna go shopping!"
