A/N It's very short but it's focusing on Max and Logan mainly so I thought
I'd keep it separate. Ella doesn't say a lot because it's too huge a thing
for her to put into words. Ella, Donavon, Alec and the chip are all being
dealt with as you read! Thanks to you all again.
Chapter Six: Learning to Love
Ella practically ran to the penthouse. The vial of antidote clutched tightly in her hand. She rushed through the door. Max and Logan were sat talking, on opposite side of the room.
'Hey Ella.' Logan said grinning. Max took one glance at the girl and saw her flushed face.
'What's up?' Ella, out of breath, just handed her the instructions and the vial.
'What. Oh God! Ella where? Logan!' Max staggered to a chair and sat down on it.
'What is it?' Logan took the paper and Ella saw his eyes light up.
'How?' he asked.
Ella crouched outside the penthouse door. Max and Logan stood next to each other; an empty vial lay on the table next to them.
'So.' Max said quietly.
'So.' Logan agreed. Ella groaned silently still watching from crack between door and floor.
'What if.' Max began but then stopped. Logan shook his head and reached across taking Max's hand. They both stayed motionless. Nothing happened.
'Oh God.' Max moaned. Logan pulled her into a passionate kiss. Ella was about to turn away when she heard Max say, 'No.'
'What?' Logan said quietly.
'Logan I have to say this before. before anything happens. That night, the first time we had a cure. In the car after you said "I Love You,' I.'
'I heard you Max. I know.'
'You never said.'
'I know. I probably should have done, but everything was so complicated that I didn't want to add another pressure.'
'Oh.' Max paused and then said, 'I heard what you told Ella. About me.' Logan coloured and then leaned into kiss Max again.
'I love you, Max.'
'I love you too. But I don't know how to do this.' Max's voice was small and she suddenly sounded so young.
'Neither do I. Love isn't something that comes naturally. You have to work at it.'
'How?'
'Who knows? We can learn though.'
'Together.' Max said and kissed Logan. Ella left the penthouse, a great feeling of triumph in her heart. ~So love does run smooth for some~ She thought.
