Chapter Thirty Nine - "Chance's Mom Has Cancer, Logan."
___

Avery's P.O.V

Saturday. The best day of the week. Well, that was until I realised I woke up with a headache from last night's events.

Oh what a great night.

Usually, on a Saturday, I would love to sleep in but when I have a hangover that makes me just want to blast my head off, I can't. What's even better is the fact that when I woke up at seven in the morning to go to the bathroom, I just had to fall flat on my face because the blanket was somehow tied around my leg.

"Can you get off the floor?" Logan asks, tapping my shoulder as he kneels down beside me. I turn my head and look up at him.

"My face hurts and so does my head. I don't feel like moving." I mumble, closing my eyes as the pounding in my head continues. Logan walks into the bathroom then comes back out with a little container filled with white things. He takes out two tablets and hands them to me.

"Take this." He says before grabbing water off the table and also handing that to me. I roll on my back and take the tablets without the water, making me scrunch up my face when the taste lingers in my mouth.

"I handed you the water for a reason." Logan says and I sigh, taking the water and sitting up. I take a small sip before putting the lid back on. I quickly jump back on Logan's bed and lay down on the soft pillow.

"Why are you helping me? Aren't you angry at me?" I ask and Logan shrugs.

"First of all, your my girlfriend so I have to help you and second, I don't see the reason for me to be angry when I haven't heard your side of the story. I don't like the fact you lied to me though." Logan says and I nod, mentally smiling.

"I know, I'm sorry." I mumble and Logan shrugs again. I sigh and sit up, resting my back against the headboard.

"Should I explain now?" I ask and Logan shrugs. I groan.

"Stop shrugging your shoulders." I snap and Logan smirks, shrugging again. I groan, rolling my eyes at Logan. He waves me off and nods.

"Okay, yeah, you can explain it now." Logan says and I nod a 'thank you' before starting with my story.

"That day when I told you I couldn't come over to your house was because I was meeting up with Chance because he wanted to explain some things. I was only there for a couple of minutes while Chance talked about everything." I say and Logan raises an eyebrow.

"What I mean is, is that he talked about what he put me through and how he was sorry. He mentioned that he only apologized because his mom told him to." I say and Logan rolls his eyes.

"Yeah, what a great liar. Why in earth would his mom ask him to-"

"Chance's mom has cancer, Logan." I cut him off, frowning at him. Logan stops and looks at me before muttering 'shit'.

"Don't jump to conclusions." I say and Logan sighs, nodding. I hold my arms out and Logan looks at me like I'm an idiot. I roll my eyes.

"Its called a hug, idiot. Do you want one or no?" I ask and Logan chuckles, leaning over the bed and hugging me. I wrap my arms around his neck and he lifts me up, pushing me against the wall. I wrap my legs around his waist and close my eyes when Logan's lips connect with mine. He presses his tongue against my lips, asking for entrance and I happily give it to him.

Logan starts to kiss my neck and I let out a soft moan when he tugs on it. "No more secrets, okay?" Logan mumbles and I nod, resting my head against the wall.

"I have to confess something now though." Logan says, looking me right in the eyes. I narrow my eyes at him and a small grin appears on his face.

"I want you naked and in my bed." Logan says and I let out a laugh as Logan carries me to his bed, pulling my dress -that I wore last night - off. Suddenly, my phone starts to ring and Logan being the impatient person he is, he grabs my hands, kissing my neck hungrily.

"I need to answer it." I say, trying to free my hands and Logan groans and let's go of them but he doesn't stop placing kisses all over my body. I grab the phone and answer it, not even looking at the Caller ID.

"Hey best friend!" Claire screams into the phone and I let out a laugh.

"Hey, Claire. How was last night?" I ask her, holding in a moan when Logan bites my navel. I try to push him away with my spare hand and he moves away but to a more dangerous place. I watch as Logan starts to pull my underwear down and I grip at his hair, making him groan.

"Amazing but the police showed up two hours after you left so we all went home after that. How are you holding up? You drank a lot of alcohol last night." Claire laughs and I nod, biting my lip.

"I had a massive headache but that was it I guess." I say, my hand still in Logan's hair as he tries to free himself from my hold.

"Okay, that's good. Anyway, the reason why I am calling you is because I was wondering if you wanted to come shopping with Henry and I. You can bring Logan..." Claire trails off and I let out a soft moan when Logan kisses my inner thighs.

"What was that?" Claire asks and I look down at Logan to see him grinning.

"I-It was... uh, my cat. Yeah, that was my cat." I say, mentally groaning at my cover up. Claire mumbles an okay before saying that she will meet me at the mall in an hour.

"Bye." I say before hanging up and I place the phone back on the table and look at Logan who is grinning at me.

"Your cat?" He laughs and I roll my eyes, moving away from him and walking to the bathroom.

"Shut up and get ready." I say and Logan frowns, groaning.

"How about you shut up and get your ass here before I decide to take you in the shower." Logan grins and I smile at him as he starts to walk towards the bathroom.

"Really?" I ask and I grip at the door handle, closing the door and slamming it in his face. "Get ready, Logan!" I say and Logan groans again. I smile in the mirror as I wash my face.

As much as I wanted to have sex with Logan, my best friend is more important.

"Yay, you came!" Claire grins, hugging me and I laugh.

"Of course I did." I say and Claire looks over at Logan and gives him a short nod. Logan just rolls his eyes and wraps an arm around my waist. I look at Henry to see him smiling at the both of us.

"Hey Henry, it's been a long time." I say, getting out of Logan's grip to hug him. Henry smiles and nods as he hugs me back.

"Yes, too long in fact." Henry says and when I step back to stand next to Logan, I notice that Logan's eyes were glaring into Henry's.

"You must be Logan. I'm Henry." Henry introduces himself to Logan as he out stretches his hand in front of Logan. Logan looks at the hand for a while until I elbow him in the ribs, making Logan shake Henry's hand.

I notice Claire's eyes drift to someone behind us and I turn around to see Katie and her group of fake friends. I turn back around and link my arm with hers, smiling at my best friend.

"Come on, let's go shopping." I say and Claire looks at me and smiles, nodding happily. The four of us walk into the mall and Logan pulls me away from Claire's arm.

"We will meet you at the food court in an hour, okay?" I say to Claire and she nods, holding onto Henry's hand as they walk into a clothes store. Logan turns to me with a frown.

"Who is that?" I roll my eyes at his question and slap his arm.

"I told you this before. It's Claire's boyfriend... well, I think." I say, looking down at the floor in thought.

Are they dating? I know he likes her and she likes him but are they together?

Logan grabs my hand and we start to walk around the mall. "Wait, so why did you drag me away? Claire wanted me to go shopping with her not to say hello and disappear for the rest of the day." I say, frowning at Logan.

"Because I want to spend the day with you. You spent the whole day with Claire yesterday at that stupid party." Logan says and I chuckle.

"The party was not stupid." I say and Logan raises an eyebrow. He takes out his phone and I see him go onto Facebook. He searches up someone's name and scrolls down their wall and clicks on a video.

"Its not stupid?" Logan asks as he hands the phone to me. It's the video of Claire and I dancing on the table. I smile at the memory but frown when I look at Logan.

Yes, I'm bipolar.

"I was having fun." I say and Logan rolls his eyes.

"You could've got hurt or someone could've raped you in the state you were in last night." Logan says and I bite my lip at his bluntness.

"But I didn't." I say, narrowing my eyes at Logan. Logan looks at me for a good five seconds until he sighs. He places a small kiss on my head as we walk into some clothes shop.

"I don't want to fight with you." Logan says and I nod, agreeing with him. He looks down at me and I smile at him as I intertwine our fingers together.

Neither do I.
