Chapter 15: Not Part of The Script!
*Vote at the end!*
=========================
Logan sucked it up and made an illegal turn to go in the direction of Alexis' place, see it was out the way of Gionna's place, it however didn't take long for Logan to park in front of Alexis' new place, it wasn't much different from the place she lived in before but now she's married to Ryan, they wanted something that was theirs.
Logan: This won't take long will it?
Gionna got out the car with him as he locked the doors looking up to the house, it looks like Ryan's out because only Alexis' car is in their drive, Gionna sighed but then got an idea to make him look forward to this a little more.
Gionna: What's wrong with you? Beside's remember the last time we saw Lex without Ryan. It was fun.
Logan thought about it, it was the night after Clash at the Castle, the one where he kinda had that break down, he and Gionna went to apologise to Alexis for what he said to her, if it wasn't for Alexis then Logan would still be beating himself up.
Logan: Oh yeah. Your right, let's go.
Gionna giggled while jogging behind Logan as he jogged up to the door, a smile on his face now, he's not expecting it because that's just wrong but the idea of what they did has defiantly cheered his day up a little, Gionna rung the bell so they all waited till Alexis eventually opened the door...
... Logan smiled as Alexis looked between them, she seemed to be more releaved to see him more then Gionna, but she was still happy to see them, giving the hug she gave Gionna before pretty much dragging Logan through the door.
Alexis: Quick, I have something to show you.
It's been about a month now since the night at Clash at the Castle, so the fact she is now pulling him up the stairs is only making his mind go to one place, Gionna didn't expect it either as she shut the door behind her
Logan: This isn't what I was expecting.
Logan glanced to Gionna over his shoulder while still following Alexis, even if it is what he's thinking, he's not going to turn it down, the sound of Gionna following them just made things better, Alexis let his wrist go once they got to her bedroom, Logan watched her walk while taking his shirt off.
Logan: Alright, how long we got?
Alexis turned to him confused by what he was talking about, she then noticed his body, it's actually got better over the weeks he's been a farm hand but this isn't what she's brought him here for, she could see why he thought it was that though, her husbands not here and she's just pulled him to her room.
Alexis: No, no, no, not that. In there.
Logan actually seemed disappointed a little but walked into the bathroom where she pointed him to go, just after he walked in the bathroom, Gionna joined Alexis in the room, Alexis sitting on the bed letting Gionna join her.
Gionna: Everything alright? You sounded a little worried on the phone.
Alexis didn't answer, only sitting their with Gionna while Logan looked on the bathroom counter, they both looked to see him shirtless while picking something up off the counter, he knew what it was, he's been to his fair share of health classes.
Logan: Look at that, Ryan's giving you both the things I couldn't.
Logan spoke picking the item up and walking towards the door, leaning on the frame and looking at the two girls, Alexis and Gionna looked to see him holding a pregnancy test, Gionna cheered in glee for her friend sharing a hug with the 5x Women's Champion, only there was one thing Logan got wrong, Ryan might have giving her the marriage part of her dream but Logan's done more then he thinks.
Alexis: Lo. I'm 3 weeks.
Gionna looked from Alexis to Logan as Logan seemed to be trying to do maths, it took Gionna a little while as well to add it together but eventually the penny dropped causing her to sigh as she tried to make a joke to lighten the mood
Gionna: The Alpha's going to have a cub.
Alexis didn't stop looking at Logan to see his reaction while he didn't really look away from the test in his hands, Gionna cupped her face with her hands leaning on her knees while Alexis toyed with her fingers, both waiting to see what Logan will do.
Logan did something this time and it was a sigh while turning on his heels walking into the bathroom, Logan doesn't want kids, not right now anyway and certainly not with one of his ex's that is now married, that wasn't in the script.
Alexis: I told Ryan last night. I haven't seen him since. He's ignored my calls and texts.
Logan wasn't really listening as he leant on her bathroom counter, the test right in his vision while all this ran through his mind, he wanted to punch the mirror but held himself back, he's not sure what the right one is to do, it's part of who he is, it's why he didn't want kids to begin with, he knew he lacks human feelings.
Gionna wasn't sure what to do or say as they all looked to Logan, he's just standing there, not saying anything or even doing anything, Alexis needed to know at least someone's with her, Ryan's gone and ignoring her while she's honestly a little scared, so she stood up, walking into the bathroom and standing beside him, her left hand on his right shoulder and right hand holding his upper right arm.
Alexis: What should we do?
She asked as Logan didn't give her anything, she couldn't even see if he was happy or pissed about this, he's just looking to the test, it's one of a few she took yesterday, in no hate for Logan, she was hoping it was Ryan's baby but after doing the maths and really thinking about it, she realised there was only one man it could have been, neither of them expected for him to say what he said next.
Logan: Easy. Get rid of it.
Logan walked away from the counter, out the bathroom, then out the bedroom, not even picking his shirt up as he left, Alexis had to do a double take, not sure she heard him right, she wanted to go after him but her legs wouldn't move, Gionna didn't have that issue though and was quick behind him, leaving Alexis alone for a moment.
Gionna: Logan!?
Logan stopped on Alexis front lawn, ready to leave, Gionna didn't like this side of him, this is the old Logan, not the one that's worked hard to become a better man, Logan though wasn't sure why he stopped, maybe those sessions are working because he would have been gone by now, instead he knows that walking away is the wrong thing.
Gionna: What was that?
Gionna asked a little while away from him, he still has his back to her but she knew he was listening, although she's not sure if she expected that reaction from him or if she didn't, Logan 2 months ago would have got in his car already and left, this isn't the same Logan as then though, no matter how much he wants to think nothings changed.
Gionna: You know that was wrong, don't you?
She heard Logan give a single, frustrated chuckle while rubbing his face with both hands, she has no idea what to say here, she's never been in this sort of situation, sure some of her friends have had kids but not like this and with her boyfriend nonetheless.
Logan: Was it?
Logan asked turning to her while seeming to believe that doing such a thing is the right call, Gionna didn't think so and suck a thing could actually help someone like Logan, more so now then ever but she hasn't seen him like this since that night in Cardiff.
Logan: You know me better then anyone. Think about it, she has a boy and he takes after me. That's not fair to either of them.
Gionna could see why he'd say that, Logan's not exactly father materially, Alexis is in the middle of trying to get her character back on track, a baby now is pretty bad timing then there's her marriage, Ryan's a nice guy, he's good for Alexis, Logan's not, Logan's a troubled guy who lashes out when people try to get through those walls he's built, only Gionna has got through because she called his bluff.
Gionna: Who said they'll be like you. It might be a girl and be like Lex.
Logan let out a sigh as a laugh while letting his head fall back, looking up to the sky, he spun around a little though to see a guy walking his dog past them, only thing is he stared at them probably wondering why a guy is standing outside half naked with a worried women trying to talk some sense into him, Logan didn't see it like that tough.
Logan: You wanna say something? No. Get lost then.
Gionna sighed as this is the Logan she hates, they all hate, Logan's a great guy but he is suffering and he will continue to do so until he either get's helped or realises that he needs the help, Logan's a Kenway and a stubborn asshole, neither are going to be easy to get done.
Gionna: Stop assuming the worst, sure it could be a boy but it can be a girl as well. Just because it's a boy doesn't mean it'll take after you...
Gionna really tried to get through to him, only nothing seemed to be working, he just stood there again with his back to her and hands on his sides, that's how she knows it's pretty much pointless, when Logan stands in a power pose, he's locked it all out.
Gionna: ... That would be a nice thing right. A baby girl?
Gionna walked behind him and put her hand on his shoulder like Alexis just did, Gionna looked up to Logan to see him doing everything in his power to either ignore all this or avoid looking at it, Gionna just doesn't want him to make a mistake here.
Gionna: Like it or not this is happening. You can either stand out here and act like an ass or you can do what you keep on telling everyone...
Logan was listening to her because she could see his eyes dart towards her in the corners of his eyes, to make things easier for him, he turned his head away but that didn't stop him from listening, Gionna moved her hand from his shoulder and made sure to hammer it home.
Gionna: ... You can't tell people your different from your father then abandon your child when your needed the most.
Gionna felt bad for saying it but it needed to be said, at least his father waited till Logan was 10 or so before dipping, Logan wants to leave before his kids even born, Gionna left Logan to stand there and ponder her words before walking back into the house, then up to where Alexis is sitting, clearly scared about what's going to happen.
Gionna: He'll come around.
Gionna sat back next to her as Alexis has her right leg on the bed facing towards Gionna with her left leg on the floor, Gionna copying her but the opposite so they are facing each other with her right foot on the floor and left leg on the bed, Alexis seemed more worried about what's just happened then she is.
Alexis: Maybe he's right though. Logan has issue's and I'm not sure it's fair putting a child through that.
That's the whole "Sin's of the father" thing isn't it, you can't blame a child for what the father's like or done, although you can with Logan because it was his father's fault, if his father didn't do what he did, then Logan's family would still be together, his mother will still be alive and Logan wouldn't feel the need to hide who he really is to think things will be better.
Gionna: You can't blame the baby for that. Logan's not a common person, the chance of the child being like him is practically impossible. I think you should keep it.
Gionna said as Alexis nodded alone with her, Gionna's actually not that bothered about her boyfriend having another baby with another women, mainly because it was her idea that lead to the creation of the little spawn, the only thing is Alexis found out yesterday, she's told both her husband and the father of the child, both of which have now walked out on here, honestly, Alexis isn't sure what to do, that was until Logan walked back into the room.
Logan: Hi.
Gionna and Alexis chuckled to him as he looked nervous with a little wave, Gionna thought knew what she needed to do, she got up, hugged her friend, then went to walk out the room to leave them time to talk, she didn't leave though, not before kissing Logan on his cheek as a thanks for doing the right thing, talking about his troubles, they might not even decide to keep the child, but talking about it what is needed and Logan's doing just that...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Just a heads up, This is November 2022 so the recent news about her and Ryan have nothing to do with this but I do need you all to vote.
Question: Shall they keep the baby?
A: Yes (👍)
B: No (👎)
If yes, suggest the gender and a name if you want, please try to pick a gender though and I'll pick the more popular between boy or girl! Thanks for reading!*
