The minute Logan saw James run out of the room, he quickly got up and went after him ignoring his muscles clenching in pain as he went after James. He left through the doors toward the stairs skipping two or more steps trying to reach him; he cursed out loud when he saw the front door open and ran. The minute he got outside he looked around and saw no sign of James, desperate and called out his name, he ran to the lawn and made circles trying to find him. After getting no answer he got on his knees clenched his fists so tight his nails broke the skin and cried. He couldn't lose James, not again, his heart wouldn't bear it if he lost him a third time. Their relationship was going great until Fox died and he brought him back to life, it was the greatest day of his life to make a feat that science and people had been trying to do for centuries.
However James didn't see it that way, the brunette should have noticed to protect their relationship, he began to distance himself away and spend more time with his friends than with him. But he never saw it; he thought it was because he spent too much time with him than his friends, not the other way around. Too caught up in using his heart instead of his head, he thought they were happy together, that they will last forever so he decided to make it official by marrying him.
He made sure everything was perfect that night, their dinner, the mood, they both will surely never forget. The brunette was so excited his palms started to sweat, his heart was beating a mile a minute, and he was very nervous, he couldn't take it anymore and decided to pop the question before dinner. Unfortunately he never got the chance when James broke up with him, he never felt so depressed in his life other than the time his uncle died. He tried to figure out what went wrong in their relationship, for their sake, he pleaded for James to take him back to tell him his mistakes so he could improve and things will get better. But James wouldn't let him no matter how many times he begged, he locked himself in the morgue updated his status on his website saying he was having a vacation and won't come back for a few days so no one won't bother him.
He stayed in bed and began to think about his relationship with James with his brain, he should have noticed James began to distant himself from him. Now he won't be able to give him kisses when they woke up in each other's arms, make him his favorite meals, make him smile, he felt a tear on the corner of his eye at the thought of never going through another day with him.
Unless he did the same thing he did to Fox, the thought came to him when saw the pup standing in front of the door waiting for his owner and friend to visit him. Logan didn't really bring Fox back to life, he didn't bring back his damaged body back to life; it was too injured to repair it. So he created a new one and transferred his memories to his new body once it was healthy and working properly. He could do the same to James, just take some of his blood and use its cells to create tissue, make a body and get it working, create a perfect replica of James. Instead of transferring his memories he could create new ones and place them into the new body and have him back, back in his life, it will be as if he never broke up with him. He would wake up in his arms in bed and he'll think it was another normal night they spent together, he could arrange his memories thinking he had been living with him for a few months maybe a year.
Of course he would have to hide him from society, Logan wouldn't mind keeping him in his home forever it's what he always wanted. During the day he would sleep in one of the coffins in the show room, especially when he probably have customers that might recognize him and wonder why there are two James, and at night live his life with him. After he had everything planned he immediately began to work, making a new body of an animal was easy; creating a human body will be a little difficult. However it was nothing he can figure out especially at the thought of having James again in his life.
After a couple of sleepless days filled with formulas and caffeine, Logan was able to figure out how to create a new human body, he had the supplies necessary all he needed now was some of James's blood to make his own James. However, he changed his number and was staying at his friend's house, and didn't know where they lived, so he decided to go to James's house and sneak in.
He thanked his uncle for teaching him how to pick locks after he was able to go inside through the back door. Searching the house he tried to find any type of information he could find to James's friend's home, instead of a house he found a map of a forest park that was only a few miles from the town. Apparently James and his friends went camping and won't come back for a few days, he could have waited for his return, but he was too impatient and decided to get his blood at the park.
He went online and researched the park before he got in his car and drove toward the camp grounds; he hid his car behind some trees away from prying eyes and began his search for James's friend's car. Logan found out a latino had one in a picture he found in the younger male's room, he inwardly smiled when he found the BMW silver car parked near a trail. He followed it until he saw a tent, used firewood, and sleeping bags laid around it, Logan looked around to see if there was anything he recognized that belong to James and grinned when he found a dark green shirt he recognized.
When he heard a few voices and footsteps coming toward the camp, he quickly left and hid behind some trees, from there he watched James like a hawk, until it was night and his two friends left him, alone. He took the opportunity to reach him calmly, but James tensed when he first saw him, he felt his heart pang painfully in his chest at the expression he gave him. However he quickly remembered about his task and reminded himself that he will have him back in his life once he retrieved his blood. Logan tried to calmly go up to him, but James overreacted to his presence and began to get angry wanting to know why he was here then telling him to leave. He used sympathy and told him that he wanted to say goodbye before they both moved on with their lives, James bought it and while he embraced him he took out a needle and was prepared to insert it in his arm when he was suddenly was pushed away from him.
He tried to reassure James he did not attempt to drug and kidnap, but he didn't believe him and ran away from him. The brunette chased after him and was able to catch him, but James would always be able to get away from him. The brunette's eyes widened when he realized they were near a cliff and seemed that James wasn't slowing down so he called out his name to stop him, but he failed. He watched the love of his life, fall toward his death, he tried to reach him, but he was too far when he got on the ground and tried to grab his arm. Time seemed to freeze when he watched James land on the ground with a loud thud and an ear splitting crack, he hopelessly watched his blood puddle around him drip from his neck. No one needed to be a doctor to know he broke his neck; it was painfully obvious, Logan tear himself away from the sight and quickly found a way off the hill toward James.
The brunette walked to him and fell on his knees, he seemed like he was sleeping peacefully under the moonlight and was tempted to wake him up with a kiss he used to do when they were together in bed, but the blood around him and his pale skin brought him back to reality. Carefully he picked up his body and held it close before he cried, "I'm so sorry James, I never meant for this to happen, I'm so sorry."
He continued crying and repeated himself until he heard James's name being called out. Reluctantly he placed his body back where he found it and hid behind some bushes, he heard a couple of yells and recognized them as James's friends, he turned away when he heard one of them cry and already knew they found him. Coincidentally, the minute they found him, the moonlight was blocked by dark clouds and it started to rain, he heard a voice talking about calling the forest ranger and heard them walk away. He took the opportunity to get out of his hiding spot and scoop James's body in his arms and began his trek to his car, "I promise James," he vowed, "I'll make things right."
The brunette reached his car soaking wet and opened his trunk gently placed his body inside, he closed it and got rid of his bloodied gloves and trench coat before he began his drive to the morgue. Silently he parked the car in his garage and took his body again then placed him in the secret room next to where he kept the bodies, he got rid of his bloodied clothes by burning them and got rid of the ashes in the woods close by his home. Then he cleaned his car making sure there wasn't a drop of blood before he got rid of them, he made sure to save some to create James's new body.
Two days later he got a visit from the police, they asked question concerning James death and disappearance, he answered them truthfully. He gave such a perfect performance when they told them the news he cried and confessed he had a relationship with him, he also confessed that he was stalking him and snuck into his house one time to try to get him back. Since he cooperated with the police, was an outstanding member of the society, and helped the police solve numerous cases he received a light sentence. It consisted of doing community service hours and was able to keep the information he told the police away from the town's media.
To his luck the storm that happened the same day James died washed away the evidence the police had that could have been used against him, taking him out of the picture of suspects of the missing brunette. When he knew he was safe, he began to work on creating James's new body, for Fox it took a week, but for a human body it'll take more time, most likely less than two months. However since he only slept for a few hours a week and business was slow he was able to complete him in less than a month, when he finished he placed James's new body next to his old one. By using special wires he created, a large amount of electricity, and a computer he was able to transfer all of James's memories and thoughts to his new body and created new memories replacing and deleting his old and most recent to the ones he made. After the transfer was successful he put all of his equipment away and bandaged his temple then placed a flower he found in the woods in the shrine he made for James for luck before he went back and gently picked up his new body.
He walked upstairs and placed him in the coffin he decided would be his new place to sleep in his morgue, Logan kissed his forehead before he closed the lid and locked it. The brunette went back to the secret room and kissed James's old body on his forehead before he placed the sheet over his face. When he first placed him in the secret room he couldn't bear getting rid of the body so he decided to preserve him and leave him under his roof. He blew out the candle he lit earlier and turned back toward him, "I'll see you soon James."
For the next few days he had been watching the coffin for any sign of his love waking up from his slumber, he made sure to give him liquids and fluids through shots so he won't dehydrate, but he was starting to get worry if he wouldn't wake up. He checked his research many times to see if everything went well and it did, there were no problems with James's new body, it was functioning properly, and the transfer was a success. But why wasn't he waking up? He went back to the show room and watched the coffin for a moment before he heard a few bangs and he felt butterflies in his stomach and his hands started to sweat.
Stay calm, breathe, he reminded himself. With shaking hands he opened the coffin and stepped back to see James scrunching his face in pain, and rubbing his forehead, he moved, he spoke, he breathed; he was alive. The past month was the happiest he had felt in a long time, he had never felt so alive, he spoiled James making him happy and making every wish he made come true. He didn't want to think about losing him ever again, his body has been doing well except for the first day and his amnesia, but quickly used it to his advantage, other than that he was fine. The only problem he had was James's past, he wouldn't stop asking questions no matter how many times he answered them, on top of that were his dreams. He thought James was unconsciously trying to remember his former memories, he had been reading his dream journal confirming his suspicions.
Then his worst nightmare came true, James found out and he was beginning to lose him again, he completely forgot to get Fox out of the basement. He was in a rush to get to work and come back home to be with James that his irresponsible actions caused this, he had to find him, he could get lost, injured, or-.
Woof!
Logan looked up to see the Alaskan Klee Klai sniffing the ground as he walked, occasionally changing direction. He watched him tread toward the woods before he raised his nose and smelled the air, Woof!
He ran, without thinking Logan got up and went after him, he felt a spark of hope in his chest as he followed the puppy. Fox could lead him to James, he knew his scent and as a loyal pet he went to find him, he slowed down when he saw the pup smelling the ground before he ran again.
He could faintly see the pup in the darkness, but continued running, he quickly ducked when he saw a stick aimed at his head. Confused he turned around to see a branch on the ground, he saw Fox run toward it and take it in his mouth before he ran again. Logan went after him and stopped when he saw James, he felt his breath hitch in his throat, he looked beautiful under the moonlight, his hair moving lightly from the cool breeze, he had his eyes closed and his arms slightly spread. He realized what he was going to do and ran to him, he began to lean forward ready to fall off the edge of the hill, Logan was determined to reach him this time, and he did.
He wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled him away from the edge.
"No!" James yelled and began to struggle in his hold. Logan grunted and tightened his hold on him when he began to kick and hit him as he pulled James away. "No! No! No! No! Let me go! I don't want to live! Please, let me go!"
Making sure the ledge was out of their line of sight and nearly twenty yards away, he fell on top of James and pinned him on the ground. James cried and sobbed trying to squirm and slip away from him toward the direction of the edge, Logan sat him up and grabbed his arms before he pinned them on his back; he lifted him up and intertwined his legs with James's. He held him and waited until he calmed down and stopped begging him to let him go so he could end his, not worth living, life. He didn't know how long James pleaded and tried to escape, but he soon stopped speaking and was only crying and quietly sobbing. There were times where he would pull roughly, but soon his pulls weakened until he stopped altogether, he looked over his shoulder to see James with a dejected look on his face as if he gave up the will to live.
Slowly he let go of his arms and legs and placed him on his lap and wrapped his arms around his figure, he kissed his temple, "it's okay James, everything is going to be alright."
James began to shake in his hold and cry again. They heard a whimper and turned to see Fox softly nudging James's arm with his nose, James quickly took Fox in his arms and hid his face in his fur.
Logan held him longer content and relieved he made it in time before James fell; he placed his arm underneath his legs and another on his back before he got off the ground, carrying James bridal style he began to walk toward his-their home in silence.
I am not going to lie, this was difficult for me to write, I have no idea why, but I was able to...for a moment I had writer's block, but I knocked the walll down. Anyway I hope you like it, there are like two chapters (I think) left for this story so hope you stick around to see the ending.
One more thing I am putting an alternative ending, I had an ending that I was for sure I was going to put, but another ending came up and I really liked it. I didn't know which one to choose, so I decided to put both of them so I can don't have to stress about it, I am working on it as well as the other chapters. Hope you stick around to see what it is.
