The
Story of Us
By ML Fan
Chapter 15
Disclaimers: I own nothing.
Author's Notes: I didn't like seeing Dark Angel be turned into Dark Alec and the potential of Max and Logan thrown off to the side in favor of awkward characters and poorly conceived plotlines. If there are any complaints about chapter length, I will delete and or ignore your review. Constructive criticism is welcome. Thank you to everyone who reviewed previous chapters. Please remember that the chapter numbers are off by one because the first chapter is a default chapter.
Lkaplon: I read your review about the choppiness and I think you'll have to simply cut me some slack as I have been doing other things for the M/L Dark Angel fandom. I would also take your review much more seriously if you had written fanfics of your own, because, I find it hard to criticize someone even constructively especially as far as writing goes if you haven't openly tried it yourself here. Logan is walking, however, this is not to say that he and Max will have an easy go of it, but, I prefer him walking even though Michael Weatherly did a great job of playing Logan Cale in the chair. Thank you for your review.
Jgrisham: Thank you for your review and I am glad that you are enjoying "The Story Of Us." Max doesn't trust people because of her past. She will hopefully come to trust Logan more as she gets to know him. At least this is what I'm trying to do.
Griever 11- I deleted chapter 16 and as with everything on if a change is made it doesn't show up right away and instead can take up to twenty four hours to show up. There is nothing that I can do about it. I'm glad you're enjoying "The Story Of Us." Thank you for your review.
A few nights later…
Logan's phone is ringing.
Logan picks up the phone and is pleasantly surprised by the voice he hears at the other end of the line.
"Alright, Logan, how did you get this number?"
"I have my ways, Max." Now is not the time to go into discussing hacking.
"I'm sure you do, Logan" in a tone that didn't exactly make him believe that she trusted him, at least not yet.
"I know you wouldn't have called me back if you didn't trust me though."
Damn, he is right. Manticore was big on the trust no one way of thinking.
"I'm a big girl I can take care of myself."
"Yeah, I can see that."
Time to cut to the point, Max, enough of this of this b.s. chit chat.
"What did you want, Logan? You can't keep a girl waiting all night."
"You said yes to a date as long as I kept my distance while you were trying to work, or no, you said looking like you were working; are you going to keep up the end of your bargain?"
He was really paying attention to me. I think that he needs to get out more. Crash didn't seem like his scene.
"Alright, you're damn persistent, Logan. What did you have in mind for our little date?"
"Just a simple dinner, I don't want to scare you off, take things slowly for once in a relationship. Taking things too fast somehow got me married to Valerie the alcoholic and liar and God only knows what else If the divorce along with his career choice got him labeled a black sheep, a broken engagement was basically the nail in the coffin as far as his family goes, even if that break up wasn't because of him.
"Logan", Max's voice willing Logan back to reality.
"What should I wear?"
"Something simple. I'm not taking you to a society ball or gala…at least not yet." He said the end more to himself than to Max, but, with her genetically enhanced hearing she heard every word.
"Eight P.M. sound good, Logan?"
"Eight P.M. it is, Max. Do you need directions to my place, Max?"
"No, I have my ways and besides I'm a bike messenger, I have to know Seattle or what's left of it inside and out in order to deliver packages. See you then, Logan."
To Be Continued… Please read and review.
