Also thank you for your reviews and I have correct the 1st chapter so it's not repeating any more.


Max had thought about what she was going to do all the way over to Logan and time was running out. She had to tell Alec that she need him to pretend they were a couple around Logan. Standing in the lift riding up to the penthouse Max decided it had to be now and hit the emergency stop button. This caused the lift to grind to a halt half when up.

"What the hell, Max" Alec shouted at her

"Alec I need to tell you something important and I need you to listen and not said anything while I tell you cause this is hard for me"

"Max" he said in frustration, but then the look on Max faces was something he had never seen before it was a look of shame, fear, helplessness. His voice immediately became softer and more concerned "What is it Max, what's wrong"

Max took a deep breath to calm herself then began "Me and Logan have split up so coming here is hard for me"

"I'm sure it's nothing Max you'll be back together in no time" Alec said

"No it's different this time… I told him there was someone else" She looked at Alec to gage his reaction.

Alec looked confused "what but you having been seen with any other guys. The only people you spent most of your time with is OC and …" Alec was shocked as he realised what was going on.

"Oh please, tell me you told Logan that you switched side and you and Cindy are together" Alec said knowing the answer to that. "How could you do this to me Max. you think I'm that much of a jerk I steal other guys women." Alec was beginning to shout "No , this is not right I will not be the bad guy in this you need to tell Logan the truth right now !"

Alec was furious and hit the button to start the elevator again .

Max brushed her hand through her hair "Alec it's not that I think you're a jerk or a bad guy. But I've almost kill Logan twice with this virus and I don't want to chance a third, please I need your help. "

The elevator stop at the penthouse door and opened Max walked out and turned back to see Alec still standing in there. Alec looked at max and signed "Ok if we do this it's just pretend" he asked. Max nodded "and only around Logan, we won't need to tell anyone else about this, ok? " With that Alec walked out of the elevator and into Logan's apartment followed by Max.


Logan was at his computer as always he didn't hear Max and Alec enter his house. Max looked around the apartment with concern the place was a mess and so was Logan. Both Max and Alec could smell with their heighten sense of smell that he had been drinking.

"God Max this is what you do to a guy, I'm glad we're just pretending"

"Shh Alec" she nudged him in the ribs. "Logan" Max called out to alert him of their presents. Logan spin around in his chair look up at Max and gave a little smile.

"Max" He said a little tipsy "and look it's you" point at Alec "you're the guy that ruined my life" he chuckled slightly then stop looking at Max again.

"Logan" she warned "you said you need our help with something now what is it?"

"Well it information you need actually. White has been working on a weapon or something design help kill transgenics" Logan said in a little more sobering tone. "I don't know anything more than that, but I do know how to find out more information and that's why I need you guys"

"Killing us how?" Alec asked

"Are you slow. I just said I don't know anything more? " Logan scoffed then whispered "Can't believe Max chose you over me, at less I have some intelligence" but both Max and Alec hear Logan's complain with their hearing. Alec stood up about to say something when Max stopped him "please don't Alec. " and turned back to Logan "How do we find this info out?"

"By going to a party" Logan said confusing both Max and Alec but he contained to explain "See there is this party for the senator tonight. White being a government type will have to give his plans to him to have the use of this weapon so it can be approved."

Looking at Alec again Logan causal commented "I put it simply for you Alec go to the party with Max and steal the plans" this cause Alec to growl and do something equally childish "Great idea Logan you can make the invitation to Mr and Mrs Alec McDowell. Being a couple and all might as well pretend we're marry at this party and have some fun" He turn to max and gave her a kiss on the cheek "I'll wait outside for you" before walking out.

This had the desired effect on Logan he look upset but Max just looked sternly at him "You brought it on your self you know, making comments to him like that. So just hand over what we need and we'll going to the party"

Max left Logan's apartment with the invitations that Logan had faked copies of, Logan had also given them a dress and nice suit for them to wear. Everyone at this party would probably be rich so he told her they need to look the part.
