Note :This is my first fanfic , I'm a horrible speller , and I would like
your
criticism , creative or non-creative.
MAX'S POV
I stayed away from Seattle for four years. I couldn't stay away any longer.
I want so badly to see Logan , but the 'genetically enhanced killing machine
' is scarred. First I'll go see Kendra. The apartment buildings
the same, I walk up to my old apartment and knock , not sure if I
should walk right in. No one comes to the door. I walk in and notice almost
nothing has changed , the marks are still on the floor where my Ninja
used to sit. I walk around slowly , Kendra's things are still here. I wonder
where she is , then it dawns on me , Crash. The bar also hasn't changed
much. I look long and hard , but I don't see Kendra , Original ,
Herbal or Sketchy. Sketchys probably in jail though without me around
to save his ass. I make a decision , I'm gonna go see Logan. I hope he still
lives in Fogle Towers. All I can think of on my way there is the look
on his face when he said "Just Go". Was that really our final
good-bye. Did he know as well as I did , I couldn't
stay away for long. Four years is a long time though. I wonder
if he recovered , I wonder if he can walk. I reach the building , slink past
the sleeping door man and get on the elevator. Logan's door looks the
same , I wonder if it's still his door. I put my ear to the door and hear
typing. His computer. I knock on the door , lightly still
not sure if I should do this. No one answers so I knock
louder. I hear walking , the door opens , and there he stands ,
starring at me with his mouth wide open. I look strait ahead ,
starring at his chest. I forgot how tall he was. He pulls
me into the apartment by my arm and motions me to the couch.
Everything here is different , different colors , different artwork with one
exemption. There sat Bast. "I changed the
apartment. It reminded me of you ". His
voice sounded shaky. "Logan , I had to come back , I couldn't
stay away ". Logan looked me in the eyes , his eyes seemed
different. "Zack probably didn't think highly of you coming back
""Zack's gone , he tried to hit on me one to many times.
I threw him in the Atlantic Ocean ".Logan was trying to hold back
laughter. "He lived , I just never saw him again". "How long
ago was that ?" Logan asked. "Six months after
we left Seattle. Now I have a question for you. How long
have you been up on your legs? that must have made you happy ". Logan
gave me that grin. "I was happy i guess "I looked at him. I
figured out why his eyes were different. He was
confused. "Logan , do you know what happened to Kendra ,
Cindy , Herbal and Sketchy ?". Logan paused "Lydecker got
them , killed them ,. Not Sketchy though, Sketchy's in jail". I didn't
hear the rest of what he said , Lydecker got them ".I started to cry.
"I left to protect them , you , me , and they still died". I put
my head on my knees and I cried harder. Logan came over and sat next to me.
He held me , it felt comforting. "All the people I left to protect ,
are gone. Logan you're all I have ". Logan grabbed me by the
shoulders and made me look in his eyes , his eyes now filled with compassion
instead of confusion, "You'll always have me Max , No matter what
". We sat there for a while , me crying on his shoulder. "Do you
wanna stay in the guest room ?" he asked tenderly. I noded and
Logan then did something I didn't expect. He picked me up and carried
me to the guest room. I cried on his shoulder the whole way there.
LOGAN'S POV
She's back. Somewhere inside of me I always knew she would be. It was always
at the back of my mind. Lydecker killed Kendra looking for Max. Herbal and
Cindy got killed trying to save Kendra. I've spent the
last few years looking for Max. I've severely neglected my job as Eyes
Only , finding Max was what mattered. Now she's back and is very
fragile. Never thought I'd ever call Max fragile.. I stroke Max's face
before I leave the room. My fingers tingle were i touch
her. She feels the same. I leave the room and go to my computer.
I stare blankly at the screen. She's back. I shut off the
computer and go to bed. I'm gonna make Max a huge
breakfast in the morning.
MAX
POV
I
wake up to the smells of coffee , pancakes , bacon and eggs. Logan
still cooks. I walk to the kitchen and there stands Logan in sweets
and a t-shirt , flipping pancakes. I never thought a guy could look sexy in
sweats ,but, Logan proves me wrong. "Hi Max " he smiles and
hands me a plate with pancakes on it "Want breakfast ?".
I grab the plate and a fork , sit down and dig in. Logan
brings me plate after plate of food before he sits down with his.
"I'd swear you were trying to fatten me up". Logan made an
adorable 'what me ?' look and ate a piece of pancake.
"Do you have any of your stuff with you ?" Logan asked when we
were cleaning the kitchen together after breakfast. "Nope ,
I was lucky I remembered my pills though , there the only thing I remembered
, I just up and left other wise "."I feel like spending a wad of
cash , lets go shopping ".I looked at him , he had a light in his eyes
which brightened up his whole face. "First you try and fatten me
up , now you're gonna spoil me rotten , a girl could get used to this
". Logan laughed , I missed him so much. We spent the rest of the
morning shopping. Logan's a typical male , doesn't like shopping.
He did like the fashion show I gave him though. We walked in front of an
expensive boutique and I was shocked when Logan said "Do you wanna go
in here ?""Nah , to rich for my blood ""Not for mine
". He paused. "Ulterior Motive , were going out tonight and you
need a dress ".
LOGANS POV
"Where are we going?". I'm not telling her that. "It's
a surprise". Max grinned wickedly. "If you're not telling me where
were going , you don't get to see the dress you're gonna buy me till we get
there ". She could tease the devil , Oh god , I love her.
What can I do but agree , and hand her some money. She disappeared
into the store , I watched her backside as she went in , she knows i was
looking at her , how could I not look though. For four years my first
thought in the morning and last thought at night was of Max.
There wasn't a moment in my day that I didn't think of her. There wasn't a
dream without her presence. I pushed myself to recover so I could go find
her. Maybe I knew she was coming back , maybe that's why I didn't
leave. Max exited the store "That didn't take long "I state.
Max grinned "What can I say , I found the perfect dress
".We spent the rest of the afternoon playing chess and talking. We
talked about how much she missed her friends , how guilty she felt even
though it wasn't her fault. We talked about what we've done in the
last four years. I love watching Max talk. "I think it's time we got
ready " I said at five o'clock "Our reservations are at six
"."You need reservations at this place ?". "Yeah
". "You are spoiling me "Max said as she went
into my Guest room.
MAX'S
POV
This dress is going to drive Logan wild. I'm ready so I go to Logan's
living room. Logan looks unbelievably handsome, black suit , white shirt and
a tie the same shade of red as my dress. "Hey Handsome "Logan
looks at me and his eyes bug out slightly. "Hey Doll Face "he
comes back at me. We crack up laughing at each other. He
offers me his arm , and I take it. The restaurant is beautiful.
There's even a dance floor. I never knew dinner and dancing , the clich�
date , could be so much fun. The food is good but Logan could've cooked
better. Before desert , Logan asks "May I have this dance ?"
, and I say yes. We're out on the floor dancing , holding each other very
tight. I whisper in his ear "Logan why'd you bring me here
? you could've cooked a meal just as good as that."
"I wanted to dance with you and if I took you out to dinner , I had an
excuse to see you in a beautiful dress ". We danced
the rest of the night , holding each other tight. It was pure
heaven. "Why do nights like this have to end "I ask Logan as
we enter his apartment. "Give me a minute" he says as he goes to
his stereo. Outcomes a beautiful R&B sound , with a throaty
female singer. "May I have this dance ?". Logan's a
great dancer. Logan starts kissing me. I shock him by
deepening the kiss. Next thing I know , were at the door of Logan's
room. His shirt and tie are undone and my dress is getting hiked up
ever so slowly by Logan's fingers.
LOGAN'S
POV
After making love ,Max fell asleep in my arms. I didn't fall asleep. I
pulled out the ring I had planned to give her , I had it hidden in the stand
next to my bed . After a year I realized I loved Max. I
had bought the ring with the intention of once I recovered , finding Max and
asking her to marry me. I love Max , even more now then
before. We could slip into Canada , get married and come back. Maybe there
is such a thing as happily ever after.
MAX'S
POV
I wake to sunlight , streaming in through a window. Being in Logan's arms
feels so good. He's stroking my hair ever so gently. I love him so much
"Good Morning "I say. "Good morning to you
too " Logan replies and kisses me. "Max I realized something when
you left ". "I realized something too ".
"Max , I love you , I've loved you since I first laid eye's on
you ". "Great minds think alike ". I look him in the
eyes , those blue depths that mesmerize me so easily "I love you Logan
Cale and I'm not ever leaving you , you're never getting rid of me ".
Logan smiled "I was " he said reaching into the stand next
to his bed and pulling out a ring " just gonna ask you something to the
jest of that ". The ring fit my finger perfectly. Max , will you marry
me ?" I give him a mischievous smile "Try and stop me "
