A/N: this goes out to *J*, who has reviewed my work and helped me and encourage me to post some more chapters. ( I guess the bribery with the whole link to my page really work on me) But seriously THANK YOU! . it makes me feel all gooey on the inside!!!!!!!

OK I named this chapter cause I was listening to Chopin when writing it, and I think it does somehow relate to the chapter.

Disclaimer: yes, yes. I am the one who wrote that whole wonderful season of DA, and never really got Logan and Max together, until the end where she bloody died!!( or so he thinks!). But if any of your'll want to write to me and tell me what a wonderful job I did on the first season please mail me at - eyezonlyangel@yahoo.com

Spoiler: it is an AU, If you haven't realised by now, you got something wrong with your ass

It was coming up to the end of the third week now, since we had left. And things were going well, we had kept on travelling up north and spent a couple of days the most in little villages or motels. Just trying to blend in with the crowd. We were both enjoying ourselves, and I found that I had discovered many more things about myself, not only in the sense of genetically engineered super human, but as a regular girl. The more and more we talked the more and more Eva and I discovered that we had more things in common other that the oblivious. We often found ourselves having personal talks with each other at 3 am in the morning, this was probably due to the fact that neither one of need the sleep.

" Man, I love this time of the night" Eva had walked up to the little window that overlooked the trees and woodland opposite our little cabin, we hired out the previous night. She gazed out at the night.

" What, you mean the hours of the night that no one is around, and others consider the God forsaken hours" I laughed and walked up next to her and looked out. In the shadows of the dark blue sky, time stood still. For that moment it was just me looking out and starring at the full moon that was facing me just beyond the trees it looked like it was so close that I could reach out and touch it. I was bought back to reality with the sound of Eva's voice

" Well , they can say what they want. But I love it. It is just me and me alone. There is this whole world out there. Some people are getting ready for bed while others are getting ready to go for work, some are having affairs, some are dying of some horrid disease. While others are having babies or making love. But non of that matters because it is just me. Nothing around me matters anymore" she turned and faced me " you know what I am saying?" The truth was, I knew exactly what she was saying cause I felt the same way.

" Ya, I know but then I think of how Lydecker's on our asses, to catch us and lock us in a cage. And then I come and face the world again. But I DO know what you mean, cause just for that one second, you feel like nothing matters. Like that I am alone, and there are no worries or fears and that I don't have to keep looking over my back. Or worry who's after me. And THAT, is what probably gets me thorough the rest of the day." She walked over to the bed and sat down

" You, know sis, I underestimated you. You put up this front, that you don't care, or give a shit about anyone else but I know deep down you do. And I think I just saw why" I walked over to her and sat on the chair opposite her and folded my legs underneath me.

" Oh, you think you know me huh?" she gave this small shrug. " Well, then tell me!" she hesitated for a moment but then carried on

" Well, for instance, you say that you didn't care whether or not me and Logan got busy, but I know

that you do" I was about to protest, when she cut me off and carried on " and I also know that this

whole time me and you have been up here, for what 3 weeks? All you being thinking about was him.

Even though, you try to deny it and say you don't. I know you do. You tried to come up here, to forget

about him, but did exactly the opposite, cause all you do is think about him, you try to push it out of

your mind but you can't. You don't think I realise but I do, and you know how" and I going to make a

smart ass remark like ' telepathy' but she carried on before I could "you get this look in your eyes, this

way off, far away look. And the only time I see it is whenever Logan is around, and now that he isn't around

I am presuming that your are thinking about him" I sat there starring into the night sky again, with my face turned away from her. She had to bring his name up, I had just managed to go 5 minutes without thinking about him and then she goes and says his name. She was right, though, about the whole time I was with her all I could do was imagine what he was doing. He was the only guy that I have ever thought about, and was on my mind constantly. And that scared me. She took my silence as a act of admittance, however she dropped the subject, to my amazement.

" So Max, whacha wanna do now, we can watch a movie, OR….." I turned around and face her " OR we could go out and have ourselves a little fun." I raised an eyebrow to what he just said. And she got up and grabbed both our jackets and threw mine to me and headed for the door.

We went into town which was just down the road from the cabin, since it was Friday night, the bar in the little town was open and there were laughs coming from inside, Eva dragged me inside, where we were greeted with looks but most of them had smiles at the end of them. We walked up to the bar and sat on down, The barman came up to us

" Good evening ladies, what can I get you?" Eva gave him this sultry smile and said two beers, he nodded and poured two beers and handed them to us, Eva go the cash out of her bag and was about to hand it to him, when this hand came from behind us, before she could give him the money the barman took the money from the hand. Both Eva and turned around to see who it was.

A/N: well, *J* . what did you think???? No wait, wait, there another chapter and it is just for you!!!! Don't you feel special!!!!! I thought I couldn't be that evil and leave it had a cliff-hanger so…………
