The Story Of Us
By ML Fan
Chapter 7
This is a Season 1 AU where some things will change, while others stay the same. I own nothing and make no profit from this story. This is not a sequel to "I'd Die Without You." A special thanks goes out to my beta, HarbingerX. Thank you to those who read and reviewed the previous chapters. As for those who have written wanting longer chapters, I believe that the idea with any story is to get and keep a reader interested and not to rush the story and try to avoid doing too much in a chapter. Logan's are in thoughts are in italics. Please read and review.
Logan looks at the package for a second and surprisingly not at the return address, but, at the white slip of paper that Max has given him "Jam Pony" it reads along with the address.
Well, I don't know why someone would send me a package, but, I've got to thank someone because finding Max again was like being hit by lightning.
Logan opens the package and sees a note, "Logan, enclosed are some of your mother's things that I found in the attic as well as an invitation to a family gathering in a few weeks that I'm hosting, feel free to bring a date."
Aunt Margo
Oh, great. Another get-together with the Cale family. I wonder why Aunt Margo even bothered to invite me since I'm the black sheep of the Cale family and I've always hated these family get-togethers where it always seems that everyone is trying to brag about their new car, new boat or whatever else their money can buy them, it's never "I'm happy to see you" or even a simple "How are you doing?"
Logan sighs and looks at his watch, 11:30 A.M.
Well, Max did say that if I meant what I said to her that I would prove it to her. Now at least I've got an address where I can find her. Logan grabs the sheet of paper with Jam Pony's address on it and grabs the key to his Aztec and shuts the penthouse door behind him.
Logan heads to the flower shop that he knew of before the Pulse.
"What can I do for you, Sir?"
"Can I have a single pink rose? No, make that a one red rose with no thorns?"
"Sir, we do have a sale on roses today, if you want."
"Thanks for the offer, but, a single rose will do, I don't want to overdo it."
"Whatever suits your fancy sir, she must be a special lady."
Why does everybody keep saying that? This is coming from a complete stranger, Bling and Matt said the same thing.
"Thank you, sir." Logan says in a controlled tone as he pays for the rose.
Logan gets into the Aztec and drives away towards Jam Pony.
Damn, it's raining as usual. I'd like to try and catch Max while she's there and not out on a run.
After a 20 minute drive, Logan is finally outside of Jam Pony.
Logan dressed in blue jeans and a khaki shirt, headed straight into Jam Pony, careful not to harm the thornless rose.
Inside the workers of Jam Pony were working like bees since a load of packages had arrived just in time for lunch. Hell, it was better than hearing Normal's infamous, "Bip, Bip."
Logan sees a guy with glasses and blonde hair and he can't help but, notice the small shrine to former president George Bush.
"Is Max around?" Logan states quickly.
"Hey, Max, you've got company!" Normal yells.
"Who is it?" Max says without looking up from her conversation with Original Cindy.
"I don't know and I don't care, just make it quick."
Max rolls her eyes, "Whatever, Normal."
"Boo, ya better go see what the man wants, I'll still be here when you get back."
"Alright, Normal, cut the suspense who's my mystery guest?" Max is clearly a little annoyed.
Max barely gets the sentence out before her question is answered.
"Logan, what are you doing here? Is something wrong with your package?"
