Chapter 31

  Logan gathered the covers sneezing, she checked the levels on the thermometer. He sniffed and checked too and scoffed, he felt a great deal of body pain and he was still cold despite the covers.

"Serves you right" She mumbled and he rolled to her.

"It's probably just the flu" No wonder he felt crappy so fast.

Keira sneezed severely and covered her lips in horror and he cackled and broke into a series of coughs.

"You've I've got flu too"

"Sam...I can't come home right now"

"You sound terrible"

"Thank you, Sam, that's comforting" She sniffed, already weak as if she walked a thousand steps tonight.

"I don't know what to say, it sounds funny" She cringed at Sam laughing on the phone, and then she coughed.

"Hold on big sis"

Keira groaned when he snoozed off on her shoulder. It was too snowy to call for a medic.

"We might as well make the most of it now" he said drowsily with sleep but still in the mood to flirt with her.

"I shouldn't have let you come on to me, like that," She said weakly while his hand caressed her arm.

"Well if you weren't playing hard to get then I'm sure I wouldn't be as curious as I was before"

"I wasn't playing hard to get, you're the one tailing after me" She snorted "Funny how I say it because, for you, it's supposed to be the other way around, right?"

He coughed and reached for a napkin, she made a pathetic attempt to push him off.

"I hear women can't take their eyes off you and you can't take your hands off them"

It took him a moment to discern that because his ears were ringing.

"A supermodel would've been a lot more convincing"

He rolled over "What's the difference between you and a supermodel?"

"It's that I don't sell my body for a gig" She retorted and Logan rubbed in between his eyes.

"Let me get this straight, you're mad at me because you think I sleep around"

She turned fierce and he laid there speechless, his headache was unbearable.

"And a liar, you don't care who gets hurt when you want something"

"This all sounds like some Reality TV bullshit. You don't know who the hell I am!"

"I'm sure Megan would've been a perfect fit" She rolled out to get to the bathroom before he could catch her, he cursed, the door was locked.

"Keira, Keira open the door!" He banged on the door 

"Go away!"

"I'm your fiancé, we can talk about this" He said coolly and covered his mouth coughing, weak from all the yelling.

"No you're not, this is all a ruse"

He crouched on the floor with his temple against the door.

"You can't even look at me, you don't want to know me yet you come to terms that I'm a selfish jerk. You're not wrong but here's where I'm going to draw the line, do not pair me with Megan, you understand?"

Irritated at her silence "You know what I think? I think you want this to work, somehow even if it's just for a little bit of time"

"We had a deal"
