Chapter 5: Together Again

Logan slowly opened his eyes and got surprised.

It was Max. She was really kissing him! It wasn't a dream. Max was
squatting down, and their lips really met.

Her bambi brown eyes met the gorgeous blue eyes.

"Whoops, did I wake you?" -She pouted jokingly.

"Yeah, but I don't mind, because you are here now."

Max smiled at him.

Suddenly Logan realized that he was still laying on his stomach, he
needed to get on his back as soon as possible, before Max would notice
that there was something wrong with him.

"Max, can you get me a glass of water, please?" -He motioned at the
empty glass on the nightstand.

"Sure!" -She stood up and left.

Bling was in the kitchen flicking through a cooking book, planning
what to make for dinner.

"Back so soon?" -He asked when he saw Max.

"Just getting some water." -She smiled.

In the mean time, Logan tried to roll over on his back. He cursed at
his body, he cursed at the pain it was causing him. But he couldn't
move an inch.

It was too late. He heard Max coming. Logan quickly closed his eyes
and pretended to have fallen asleep again. It took him some effort to
breath slowly.

"Logan?"

He didn't respond.

"Can I borrow some hot water, sleepyhead?"

No reaction from Logan.

"I'll take that as a yes." -She whispered and went to the shower.

Logan still pretended to be asleep until he heard the shower running.
He took a big breath of relief.

"Bling." -He called as quiet as he could.

Logan sighed. Bling couldn't hear him, and he can't turn his voice up,
because Max had super-enhanced hearing ability.

He opened the nightstand-drawer, got out a magazine and threw that
through the doorway. That definitely had caught Bling's attention.

"What is going on here?" -Bling picked up the magazine and entered the
room.

"Keep your voice down, Max is next door." -Logan whispered.

He put the magazine back to its drawer and looked at Logan.

"Can you roll me on my back, before Max comes out?" -Logan said
quietly.

Bling did what he was told, he lifted him up and gently rolled him
over on his back. Grabbed the pillows back and piled them neatly
behind his back so he could sit.

Logan stuck his fist in his mouth, trying not to make any noise at
all.

"You shouldn't hide this, Logan."

"I won't , but now is not the right time to tell . . . I am not ready
for it." -He sighed.

"Are you sure you don't want any painkillers?" -He looked at the
grimaced face.

"Yeah." -Logan tried to straighten his face.

"OK, then I will go back to the kitchen, trying to find a recipe that
I actually can handle." -Bling joked.

Logan smiled a little and put on his glasses which were on the
nightstand. All he have to do now, was pretend that everything was
normal and wait for Max, who was still in the shower.

. . .

It didn't take a long time for Max to finish. Logan heard the water
had stopped running and a few minutes later she came out of the
bathroom, wearing Logan's blue bathrobe.

"Hey, you're awake!"

"Yeah." -He smiled.

"Hope you don't mind that I borrowed some hot water?"

"Not at all !"

"Good! . . . and some clean clothes?" -She pouted.

"Why don't you go see for yourself." -Logan laughed.

Max looked in his wardrobe and picked out a kaki combat jeans and a
black tank-top and went to the bathroom to change.

Bling knocked on the door.

"I have to go shopping, we don't have the right ingredients. Do you
need anything else?"

"No, thanks."

"OK, see you later, Logan"

"Bye Bling."

Bling took the keys of the Azteck and left.

"How do I look?" -She asked when she came out, wearing the oversized
jeans and top.

"Beautiful!" -This wasn't a lie, she really looks good in anything.

"Thanks! . . . So, what are you up to?"

"Nothing. Just lying in bed boring myself . . . Doctors prescription."
-He added.

"For how long?"

". . . Seven days. . ." - He sighed.

"Well, in that case . . . Shall I keep you company?" -Max motioned to
the bed.

"Sure, hop in!" -His hand patting on the spot next to him.

Max took his offer a bit too literarily and jumped into the bed. Even
though she wasn't heavy, the impact made the bed bounce a little.

"Oh!" -He gasped, reaching out for his back.

She turned around to see what was going on. Logan's grimaced face
frightened her.

"Logan, are you OK? I am so sorry" -She whimpered, not knowing what to
do.

"I'm . . . f - fine."

Max lay her hands on his shoulder and on his hand, which was on his
side. Her hand gently squeezed his shoulder and continued to move
behind his ear.

He lifted his head up and looked in to her eyes. She didn't look away.

"Breathe slowly, Logan." -She said seriously.

Logan closed his eyes and concentrated on his breathing and the hand
which was stroking through his hair. How could he get out of this
awkward situation?

He opened his eyes and saw this friendly face.

"Are you, Ok ?" -She asked.

"Yeah." -Logan tried to smile.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know that you were in pain." -Her hands were
on her lap now.

"It's just my back that has to heal from the surgery, it isn't as bad
as it looks.
I'll be OK in a week, I think." -He lied, trying not to make her
feel guilty about what
just happened.

There was a silence in the room. They both didn't know what to say.

"Shall we watch some TV?" -Max asked.

"Sure, but there is a problem. . .No TV here."

"That can be fixed!" -She carefully got out of bed, went to the
computer-room and grabbed the TV and the remote-control.

"Piece of cake!" -She said when she put down the TV on a cabinet in
the bedroom and plugged it in.

She handed the remote to Logan and carefully got in to bed, trying not
to hurt him as she did before. This time she was thankful for her
feline-DNA.

Max carefully snuggled cat-like against Logan, resting her head on his
chest.

"Oops.are you OK?" -She left his chest and looked at Logan worriedly.

"Yeah, I am fine!" -He laughed. He reassured her by guiding her back
to him and embraced her.

Together they just lay there, it didn't matter what was on TV. They
just simply enjoyed each others presence.

Until Max started to tremble slightly. . .
