Chapter 10

Logan gave Lulu a weird look "We?"

"Yes, we" Lulu said "I'm involved in this whether you like it or not"

He swallowed hard, he sure as hell didn't want her anymore involved in this. But he knew that there was no way she would stay out of it. He would just let it slide until they were back in town, then he would talk to her, tell her that he didn't want her involved.

"Well, I think it would be safe to go back now" Logan said

"But…" Lulu started

"Come on Lu, lets go" Logan said

Lulu was completely confused, but she still followed him out the door

They drove in silence for a while and Lulu couldn't take it anymore.

"You still didn't answer my question" she stated

"What question?" he asked

"What are we going to do?"

"Lu, we are not going to do anything" he said "This mess is something that I have to fix myself"

"But Logan, I want to help you" she said

"I don't want you any more involved in this Lulu" he said, keeping his eyes on the road

Lulu stayed silent, not sure what to say. She wanted to help him, but he was being so stubborn and wouldn't let her.

"But Logan, you need my help" she said

"What?" he said shocked

"You need my help" she said "I know you say it wasn't, but I know Johnny coming after you is my fault. If I hadn't of dumped him then you wouldn't be in this mess. I can talk to Johnny and tell him to stop what he's doing and leave you alone"

Logan shook his head "Lu, don't you get it?" he said getting frustrated "He will kill you if he finds out you have any involvement with me…you need to stay out of this"

"I can take care of myself Logan"

"Oh and I can't? Is that what you meant by 'you need my help'?" he shouted "You think I can't do anything for myself, is that right?"

"No that's not what I meant" Lulu said "I just meant that you can't do this alone"

"That's the same thing Lulu" he said

"Alright then, if you won't let me help you….then what do you plan to do?" she asked

"I'm going to take care of it" he said

"Wow Logan, that explains it" she said sarcastically "Tell me what your going to do because you know if you kill Johnny, you'll have the rest of the Zacchara's after you"

"I don't give a damn about the Zacchara's…I'll do what I have to" he said

"Logan do you have a death wish?" she screamed "I guess you're even crazier than you were that night, you haven't changed a bit, you're still that same demented psycho" she instantly regretted saying those words

Logan slammed on the brakes "Get out" he said calmly

Lulu didn't move "Logan I…"

"Get the hell out Lulu!" he yelled

"No" she said quietly

Logan angrily got out of the car and went around to Lulu's side. He opened the door and without saying a word he unbuckled her seatbelt and pulled her out of the car

"Logan stop" she shouted, tears in her eyes

When Logan let go of her she tried to get back in the car but he pulled her back out, then slammed the car door

"Logan, I'm sorry" she cried

"No your not" he shouted

He walked around to the driver's side and got back in, Lulu was banging on the window so he reluctantly rolled it down

"Logan please, I'm so sorry" she said

Logan didn't even look at her, he just gripped the steering wheel tighter "It's about a ten minute walk back into town…you should be fine"

"Logan, don't do this" she cried

"I didn't, you did" he said, and with that he drove away leaving Lulu in tears

Logan was so angry, that he could barely see straight. How could Lulu think so little of him? He wasn't crazy…he was sick, that's what the shrinks kept telling him and eventually he started to believe that. "I guess you're even crazier than you were that night, you haven't changed a bit…you're still that same demented psycho" he kept hearing her say those words over and over in his head. Those words coming from her hit him like a ton of bricks, he didn't know how he'd ever get past that.

Lulu started crying so hard that she was nearly convulsing as she watched him drive away. She couldn't believe what she said to him. She was just so angry that he was being stubborn, not allowing her to help him. She knew he was just looking out for her, he just wanted to keep her safe and what did she do? She brought what happen that night up, she even called him psycho. She wished she could take it back, but she couldn't. She hurt him and there was nothing she could do to change that. Once she calmed down a bit, she started the walk back into town…not sure what she'd find when she got there.
