The Story Of Us
By ML Fan
Chapter 8
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. Winking Tiger- Everything will come out in time and there is AU used throughout the previous chapters. Thanks also goes out to Peking Noodle who reminded me of Max's dislike of the color pink in her "Moon" fanfics. Sandi-It is always nice to know that new people are reading this story and my intent is to have M/L in character, so I am glad that this is coming across. Please read and review.
Is something wrong with my package? Logan hides a smile. She looks beautiful even when she's nervous. "Remember you told me to prove it to you if I meant what I said, this has nothing to do with my package."
Max looks at Logan for a minute and wants to give him a sarcastic, witty comeback, but nothing comes out. After an eternity of silence, Max says, "What is it that you want? I don't have all day to stand here; a girl's gotta make a living you know? I don't want Normal on my ass today, especially with it being the lunchtime rush and all."
"I bought you a red rose, there was a sale for a dozen, but, I thought that that would be over the top and I don't want to scare you off."
Nice job, Cale. That was real smooth. You're babbling and acting like a boy with a crush on the most popular girl in school.
Cindy sees the interaction between Max and Logan and heads over to them and whispers to Max, "Boo, take the rose from tha boy, he's being sincere ya know he's here and this is coming from a lesbo." Cindy walks away from Max and Logan.
Max takes the red, thornless rose from Logan and gives him a small smile and a quick "Thank you, Logan."
She looks like she wasn't expecting me much less any kind of a surprise. She sounds speechless, that's a first.
"Why me, Logan? I think that you're wasting your time and money on the wrong girl. I mean you know nothing about me, doesn't that bother you even a little?"
"No, it doesn't bother me, not in the least, because then there are expectations and with me there have always been expectations."
"Well, what is it that you want exactly?"
"A date, Max, a date with you, that's it."
Think about Manticore, Maxie, you know that emotional attachments are bad and on the top of your list of big no-no's and Lydecker...
"Okay, one date, that's harmless enough. How about next week Wednesday?"
"How about tomorrow? A lunch date."
"Alright, a little anxious and overconfident are we Logan?" Max says with a smirk clearly enjoying their joking banter.
"I'm not worried, Max," Logan says also enjoying their banter.
