Third P.O.V

They arrived at a gated apartment complex a few blocks from the park. Logan punched in the code making the gate ping before pulling open for Logan to park in front of his apartment building. By now, the storm had kicked up to its full strength. The heavy blast of wind rocked the car and made rain drops fall like hail against the window. Thunder and lighting made its self known every few seconds with a bright flash and a string of pops. Logan and Patience sat and watched the rhymthic pattern with both dread and puzzlement. Logan felt disappointment settle into his chest as his mood began grey due to the ugly weather tarnishing their day.

He turned to patience to examined her facial features. Her lips were puckered into a pout while her expression bore a bored look as she hugged her drenched clothes. Logan knew they couldn't just sit there hiding from the rain, and especially not in soaked clothes. it would only be a matter of time before a cold would set in. Logan took a deep breath before he pitched an idea for patience to listen"I think I have an idea of how we're going to get to the building but we have to be quick" Logan said making patience turn to him with furrowed brows. "If your thinking of making a run to the house Im not going to make it far. not in these heels" patience said motioning towards her size 6 inch boot heel.

Logan clicked his tongue and he ran his hand across his beard as he thought of another idea. Than one did pop into his head that placed a smile on his lips. He knew it was risky and could possibly get him cursed out by the woman, but it didn't detour his set mind. " There's no need to" Logan put simply but made patience arch a brow of curiosity at his words. Her thoughts were soon answered when Logan suddenly threw his door open and jumped from his seat and into the pouring rain. Patience eyes widened in shock as she reached a hand out to stop him but her actions fell on blind eyes once he slammed the door shut behind him. Patience followed him with her eyes and her mind questioning whether this man had lost his mind or not. He pulled open her door making Patience's mouth open to say something but only released a lower pitched squeal as she was lifted into Logan's arms.

On Instinct her arms wrapped around his neck to keep herself from falling. "Logan what the hell are you doing" she rasped over the sound of the thundering rain. "Getting us out of this rain" Logan laughed out loud as he kicked the door to the car shut before making a run for the apartment all while Patience prayed he didn't drop her. Finally Logan reached the top of the steps to his apartment. He fumbled around in his pocket for a key until his face lit up once his fingers brushed them. He pushed open the door to a lifeless apartment that made him mentally cringe at the way he left it. A few magazines littered the floor and blankets  decorated the couch where he spent most nights instead of his bed, but otherwise clean with the obvious smell of an absent home.

Logan looked down at patience fully expecting her to curse him in the most hurtful way possible but instead she took a couple of deep breaths before the sound of light laughter rung from her throat. The sound brought a smile to Logan's face as he also began to join in. Finally their laughter settled down to giggles and huffs before she lightly tapped at Logan side signaling to let her down. Logan did so with a huff. "That was exhilarating" Patience spoke disregarding her completely soaked jacket.

"I'm sorry I should've watched the news for rain storms" Logan grinned a sheepish smile as he disregarded his own jacket and took patience's to hang.

"It's fine I still had fun. Actually it was the most fun I've had in a minute" Patience said giving Logan a breath taking smile. Logan tried to cover his smile with a simple head nod but internally he was absolutely stocked she enjoyed the little time they did spend together. "I just wish I wasn't completely soaked" Patience sighed pulling at the wet garments that clung to her body.

Logan thought quick and made a beeline for his room. He reappeared seconds later holding a grey shirt and black shorts. "Here you can change into these and if you want I have plenty of warm water for a bath... that is if you're comfortable showering here."
