Hope you like the story. I wanna say how sorry I am for all the spelling, grammar and vocabulary mistakes in my stories. Keep in mind, English is a foreign language to me!!!
Enjoy reading it and review!
PS: I'm sorry if I have to disappoint some guys with making Max and Logan leave, but I'm sort of an old-fashioned DA fan, in Germany, the second season has yet to be aired, so I only know a couple of episodes from the second season- and I just seem to like the concept of the first season better. Today I watched Borrowed time, and I cried so hard in the end!!This is just not right!!!!What do you guys think?

"Hey big fella! What are you up to?"

"Painting."

"It's your house."

"Yeah, I miss it."

"I know." Max sat down on a table and let her legs tangle.

"Logan can touch you?"

"Yes."

"So Max and Logan are getting busy."

Max had to smile. "I think so."

"This is good, I like it when you are happy."

"Yeah, listen. I have to talk to you about something serious."

Joshua kept on painting, he colored the sky in a gray tone, a typical Seattle sky.

At a lack of words, Max decided to just be matter of fcat. "I have to leave."

"When will you be back?"

"I think I have to leave for good, big fella."

The tall transgenic stopped in his movement and aftera second that seemed like an eternity to Max, he slowly turned around.

"Why? You would miss Joshua, Original Cindy, Alec, and Logan..."

"Logan's coming with me."

There was no answer.

"Look, Joshua. You are strong and you can run, but Logan can't, not anymore. This is too dangerous for him."

"I could carry him when we have to run."

"I know, but this is not right." She inevitably had to grin despite the situation, imagining proposing that to Logan. She could see his face crumble in her mind.

"You like Logan better than you like me."

"It's different. You have Alec, and all the others. Logan is not one of us. He is alone here."

Joshua considered that for a moment. "Logan makes you happy, and if Logan can't stay because it's too dangerous fo him, you have to go with him, so you will always be happy."

"That's true. So do you understand it?"

"Yes, but I'm sad."

Max stepped close and embraced her friend, disappearing in his huge form. "Me too, Joshua. Me too."

In the early evening a lot of transgenics assembled in the mess hall where Max explained what she was abou to do. At first everybody disagreed and they all tried to talk her into staying. But the conviction in her deep brown eyes was s strong that they finally accepted her decision. They all knew what Logan meant to her and what the two of them had gone through to be together. So Max eventually said goodbye to all of them, wishing them good luck.

Logan had watched the scene from a quiet corner with Cindy by his sde. He was reliefed the transgenics didn't blame him for losing Max.

They'd packed their few belongings earlier and Logan had contaced Bling, who was supposed to await them at a relatively safe perimeter. Alec, Joshua and Cindy would accompany them there. And even though Logan hated the idea, he had no choice but letting Joshua carry him.
Cindy would leave Terminal City with them, but had decided to stay in Seattle for now. The passport Bling had prepared for her would give her the freedom to leave whenever she wanted.

They made their way in uncomfortable silence and Max let out a breathe of relief when she finally spotted the Atztec on the other side. Bling climbed out of the car and retrieved Logan's wheelchair from the back while Max and the others climbed through a hole in the fence.

"Well, I guess this is it." Max nodded her hello to Logan's former therapist.

Bling rolled the chair over to Logan and without a word helped him settle.

Alec nodded gravely and embraced Max. "Take good care. I'm gonna miss you."

"Me too. Have an eye on Joshua, will you?"

"Sure thing." He gave Max a kiss on the forehead and then turned towards Logan. "Good luck. Make Max happy. And thanks for everything you have done for us."

"I'll give my best, you're welcome." He embraced the younger man and when he released him he shoved an envelope in Alec's hand. Bling had just handed it to him. "This is your new passport, some cash and a contact number, just in case."

"Thanks man."

Joshua had said his goodbyes to Max meanwhile, by embracing for the best of two minutes, letting his tears fall freely. "I'm going to miss you little fella."

"And I'm gonna miss you big fella." She planted a kiss on Joshua's cheek. "Take care, I'll never forget you."

Joshua then bent down in front of Logan's chair so he was on eyelevel with him. "Max loves Logan, don't let her go ever again."

"I promise. Good bye Joshua."

"Bye Logan."

Then Bling helped Logan over the rough terrain towards the car, Original Cindy embraced Alec and Joshua one last time and followed, holding Max's hand.
When Logan had settled in the passenger seat she took his wheelchair and stored it away in the trunk of the car.Then she opened the door behind Logan's seat. But instead of climbing in she ran back over to Joshua and Alec and fiercly embraced both of them one last time. "I love you, Joshua."

"Bye Max."

Without looking back she returned to the car and shut her door. "Go!"
They rode in silence for a few minutes. Logan had cast her a worried and sympatetic glance and had reached out his hand which she'd grabbed and still was holding.

"Where do you want me to go?" Bling had finally dared to break the silence.

"Take Oiginal Cindy wherever she wants to go, and then to the airport."

Cindy wanted to goto their old apartment and said her goodbyes to Logan. Again tears were spilled.

"I'll be right back. I'm just gonna grab some of my stuff." Max said and joined Cindy.

"So this is the price you had to pay to be with Max, huh?" Bling looked over at his friend. "Do you think you might regret it one day?" Bling knew what a hard time Logan had had to accept the chair before.

"No, I won't." Logan was surprised by the conviction in his own voice. "It's gonna be hard to come to terms with it again, but Max is a lot more important to me."

"Where are you gonna go?"

"Sorry, Bling, but I think it's safer for you if i didn't tell you."

"Ok, but I want you to let me know how things turn out, and when everything's calmed down around here, I want an invitation to the wedding."

Logan grinned. "You are gonna be the godfather of our first son."

"You swear?" Bling bent over to embrace Logan, laughing. "Good luck. And never let the damn chair stand between you, like you did it before. This girl doesn't giv a shit if you are sitting or kicking."

"I know, I'll domy best." He returned the hug. "Thanks for everything. Without you, I wouldn't even be here. I'll never forget you this."

**
Meanwhile Max hurriedly packed as many clothes and stuff into her big black bag as she could find. The apartment still looked the same, apparently no one had found a connection of some kind. That put Max's mind at ease, that way Original Cindy might actually be safe.

"Ok, I think this is it. I love you, forever." Max couldn't help but cry again.

"I love you, too. You did the right thing, boo. The two of you belong together."

"Yeah."

"Good luck."

"You're gonna come visit one day, right? This is no goodbye for good,is it?"

"You're not gonna get rid of your homegirl. Logan got me the passport and some money. I'm gonna see my boo and rollerboy again, count on it."

They held each other tight for a long time, up to the point when Max couldn't stand it anymore. "I gotta bounce, or else I'd pack you into this bag."

"Take care, Max."

"Bye."
