The Sinner/The Saint

Logan was starting to get pissed off, the annoyance was already gone, that had disappeared after Max had been in a coma for just a week. But now? He was pissed off and unfortunately there was nothing he could do about it, he was just an ordinary and Alec wasn't.

Because Max had insisted about telling everybody of the cure when everyone was gathered to hear, she had wanted to celebrate the good news but only first after coming home from helping the doctor. Sometimes Logan wondered why he had insisted on helping him, when they could've just played dirty and fixed the virus and pretended like they, themselves had solved the stupid problem. But no, Logan had to be noble and give something back. God I'm stupid!

And now Alec had claimed a permanent spot on the Only chair in Max room, go figure that jerk would do anything to look good in front of her, even if she was in a coma. Seriously, this was disgusting and hello? Max was his girlfriend, not Alec's!

But walking into Max room and seeing Alec sleeping next to her? With his arms placed possessively around her? She's in a coma and would never allow for that to happen, what the hell was his problem?

"Logan, hey. Thought I hear something funny."

Great, Alec just can't stop making fun of the exo-skeleton he had to wear to be able to walk like a normal person, what a big freaking surprise.

"Alec, what are you doing?"

"What do you mean?"

"You're in bed next to Max, care to explain?"

"Heh, yeah I thought that a little body heat would wake Maxie up, pretty lame huh?"

"Mind getting out of the bed? I'm sure she wouldn't wanna wake up next to you."

"Ouch, Loggie, that hurt. Almost."

Alec faked a hurt expression, but didn't move from his spot, which didn't really surprise him. Logan himself hadn't moved from his spot either, still standing by the door, almost feeling like a pervert by being jealous of Alec. He was an animal, he shouldn't be jealous of him. He shook his head.

"Any improvements?"

"Her breathing keeps changing, not sure if that's good or bad though."

"Shouldn't you know?"

"Hey, I'm not part of the med-team, okay? I know basic stuff, complicated stuff, but still basics."

"Right."

Being angry with Alec seemed to make everything easier, even if he knew that it wasn't his fault Max was lying in bed, looking like a ghost of herself. No, the fault was completely on Logan, but he wasn't strong enough to admit that to himself, or anyone else for that matter.

It was best for everyone to think that something had simply gone wrong at the mission and not that Logan had just screwed up, how was he to know that the cure wasn't complete? Maybe he was getting rusty at his Eyes-Only game? Whatever, as long as no one knew of his faults, no one could blame him.

Having nothing more to say or do, Logan left Max' room, thinking of different ways to get Alec to leave her side. He also knew that not even a nuclear bomb would make him leave, Alec was who he was and Logan always hated him for that. Damn screw-up!

And stayed was exactly what Alec did, the thought of getting back into that rickety chair wasn't something he wanted to do and besides, hadn't the others told him over and over again that he needed proper rest? Well, he was getting it and still keeping his eyes on Max.

So he might not relax completely, but he was still sleeping. Sort of. More like meditating. Yeah, that sounds just about right, he was meditating and his body heat might even make Max stronger, who knows and it was worth a shot anyways.

"So a transgenic walks into a bar and ask the bartender for something strong to drink and the bartender looks at the transgenic, shakes his head and walks to a ordinary and gives him a bottle. This of course pisses the transgenic of a bit, so you know what he does?"

Silence greats Alec.

"He heads over to the ordinary and asks him what's he drinking and the ordinary replies 'the strongest there is, vodka of course!' And the transgenic asks if he can have a taste, the ordinary says Sure and pours him a glass. So the transgenic grabs the bottle instead and chugs it down like water and guess what he says?"

The only sound Alec hears is Max ragged breathing and he sighs, he never liked her quiet.

"Anyway, he says 'You call this vodka? Hell this is water!' The ordinary of course gets a bit upset, because you know.. He paid for the bottle the transgenic drank up, but before he can make a fool out of himself and try to punch him out. The transgenic takes out a bottle of Mole's poison from his jacket, you gotta try it Max, it's so awesome! Anyway, he pours a glass for the ordinary and says 'Drink up!' So the ordinary except the gifts, takes a sniff and then drinks it. To the transgenic surprise, the ordinary doesn't cough and faint. You wanna know why?"

Talking always made things easier for Alec, even if he always talked about other things than the problem at hand. But it kept the annoying thoughts away.

"The ordinary turns to the transgenic, who by the way, is still shocked and says. 'I'm not an ordinary, I'm a familiar!' and then laughs as he takes the bottle away from the transgenic and drinks Mole's nasty stuff. End of story."

He sighed and pulled Max closer, sometime during his sleep their positions had changed, now he was the one lying on his back and she was on her side, head on his arm as a pillow, somehow their legs had tangled up with the covers. It was almost hard to see who's leg belonged to whom, but seeing as Max had a smaller figure, that pretty much gave it away.

"Yeah, I guess I suck at telling jokes, I mean.. What was funny about it?"

Letting his fingers run through her shorter hair was soothing and he hoped she somehow felt it too, did she even hear him? He knew the stories about how good it was to hear your friends voices if you were in a coma or what ever, he was to tired to think straight.

"You'll pull through this, right Maxie?"
