" It was the best fun that I've ever had in my life. Who would have thought playing in the mud will be fun. " he kept wondering while having fun.
Maya couldn't stop laughing as Logan was on her, he held both her hands to the ground and kept on and kept applying the mud on her hair and her face for the first time... He noticed she had a bubbling kind of laughter which made him feel..good. She deserved the mud that she just got all over her body... They had both practically bathed theirselves with the mud. His head was covered with mud and he couldn't really care less. It was fun.
" Logan... Logan okay... okay Logan, fine... fine you've got me... you won! " Maya ranted out as she still gave a bubbled laughter. Logan smiled at that.
" Wait... did you just smile? " she asked with raised eyebrows.
" What... I smiled? Wait... what I'm I doing? And.. and with her of all people? Logan what is wrong with you? " he let go of her hands and got up to his feet.
He suddenly felt stupid. He has relaxed too much. Like they say, fun is good but too much if it is bad and that was what just happened to him.
Okay, Logan was being a turd right now. They were seated in the car on their way home. How they got the car out of the mud? Well.. while she was trying to know the reason for his sudden mood change, a family car pulled over, they asked them what the problem was and the helped them push the car out of the mud. After thanking them they left and they both journeyed home as well.
For the first time, she saw Logan smile and he looked like he was really having great fun... it sort of made her happy to see him like that but then all of a sudden he stopped and backed away. He hasn't said a word to her since then. The air in the car was becoming too tense. There should be a reason why he's acting that way.
" Did anyone tell him that if he doesn't have fun anymore then he will no longer be handsome... Did I just call him handsome? Ooh Maya you're loosing it. It will be best I talk to him than asking myself questions.
So... are you really just going to be quiet the whole ride? " she asked him as she turned to him.
He snubbed her as usual. He didn't say a single word, he kept starring intensively ahead at the road with furrowed eyebrows.
" Are you really going to be like this? No word, no laughter, just plain? At least you can tell me what is wrong..."
" Just be quiet " so ladies and gentlemen, Mr Logan Jack is back.
" I see... hmm... Okay, if that's how you want it. " she told him disappointedly before she turned back properly to face the road. His character was really annoying and it was getting on her nerves. He always turned on and off his emotions like it was some switch. Sometimes with the way he chases her away... she can't help but think he's avoiding something. Something big... something that could break him down, something that could change him from being so tough and controlled everytime.. She decided to take one more look at him, as if the answers will pop up on his face then she remembered they were both obviously still looking muddy and dirty. His face looked like that of an art abstract. She has never seen Logan since the day she met him, so disarranged. He was looking dirty and his hair was in a rough style. She laughed again to his attention as she remembered how he played earlier in the mud. It made her laugh hard that she had to cover her mouth with her palms. He took a look at her at intervals with a confused look which made everything more funny.
" Why are you laughing sheepishly? " he finally asked when he couldn't stand it anymore. She smiled knowing she has gotten his attention, she took her palms off from her mouth and sat down properly and with her head held high and a serious face. She answered...
" No- thing! and as you always say... it's none of your business! " she told him and immediately turned her head away to face the window as she struggled and managed to control her laughter. The look on Logan's face that moment was worth remembering over and over again.

The car finally stopped in front of a huge black gate. He honked and suddenly the gate opened on its own. She was left with awe... It seemed to be one of those electrical gates but... the gate was nothing compared to the view of the mansion inside. The scenery of the compound was breathtaking. There were beautiful ornamental flowers to beautify the entire surrounding. The runway down to the mansion was smooth and well done. His home was a huge mansion that stood on its own. There were maids trooping in and out doing several chores and there were also security men.
The car stopped right in front of the mansion and then, a security guard opened the door for her.
" Thank you... " Maya's words and excitement trailed off as Logan grabbed her arm and dragged her in along with him. She was too shocked with his sudden action to even say anything.
" Wow! " she still managed to exclaim to the beauty of the building even from within as he dragged her along. The servants kept greeting as they walked. She answered them with a nod and a smile but Logan on the other hand pretended like they weren't there. They climbed the wide C - curvy stairs then walked down the hall way, before she knew it, Logan opened a door and they walked into a wide room. It looked more like master's bedroom. Huge, wide bed, beautiful curtains and wardrobe. The small chandelier hanging in the ceiling made the room look even more prettier. The walls were painted with white and the floor were made of beautiful tiles.
" This will be our room " Logan said.
" Huh!..did you just say...our room? " she asked him in surprise with raised eyebrows.
