Max Gibson taped the side of the table over and over again only glancing up once or twice every so often to see if Terry had made it yet. Dana was going to kill him. It was going to be a hard task smoothing over this on. Everyone had gathered for Dana's birthday party of all times not to be on time. " Where are you McGinnis?" Max said to no one but herself.
"Max."
Max let out in involuntary breath of relief. " I guess it's better than late than never, Terry where have you been Dana's is going to kick your butt."
" Tell me something I don't already know, I had patrol and Bruce wanted me to check out something's at that old where house on the lower east side "
" So the old man and Duty call, things would be so much easier if you could just tell Dana."
" We both know that, that can't possibly happen, where is she?"
"Last time I checked she was hanging near the stairway with Blade"
"Wish me luck."
."Luck, you're going to need more than luck to muddle on through this on McGinnis"
"Thanks Max you're sure now how to make a guy feel good." Terry teased.
" All I'm saying is you dug your hole terry now you got to find away out."
" Um hmm," Walking through the crowd Terry nudged and squeezed his way until he made his way to the stairway and sure enough there she was. For a second he considered turning around he didn't want a big scene, he had already ruined her party, but that idea was cut short quick when she spotted him first. Think Terry think, and make it a good one.
" I can't believe you Terry, out of all days to foul up you choose today." Staring up at him Dana waited for the lame excuse he would give this time.
" Dana…I'm sorry I was stuck working for Mr. Wayne and…"
"Save it Terry this was the last time."
"Please, Dana you know I wouldn't mean to hurt you on purpose."
" You made your choice terry its over." Dana didn't look back as she joined back with her group of friends. She had, had enough of all the half brained excuses it was her or Mr. Wayne; he had apparently made his choice.
Max reached up to touch Terry's shoulder. " I take it you saw what happened"
"Yeah, Terry I'm sorry who knew that this would be the time that Dana finally snapped."
" Yeah well, maybe its for the best."
"Come on Terry, lets get out of here, we can go get so pizza my treat."
" Alright."
