Chapter 1 Saturday 3:22PM
"So why are we doing this again?" Alec asked.
"This is the seventh time you asked me that in the past fifteen minutes."
"Really? I thought it was only the sixth."
"Smart ass," Max said rolling her eyes.
Alec couldn't help but add his two sense in. "Actually, it's 'smart aleck.' So what about an answer to my question, Maxie?"
"We're doing this because we have to figure out White's connection to these people."
"I thought you said money was involved!" Alec stated angrily.
"Well I lied."
"I can't believe you lied to me Max. I trusted you. I never thought."
"If you shut up we'll go get some ice cream afterwards. My treat."
"How's ice cream going to help?"
"There's money involved," Max said sarcastically with a grin on her face.
"Smart ass. How much longer?"
"I don't know. But it shouldn't be too much longer."
After another ten minutes, Max and Alec silently crawled to the table the men had been talking at. They looked at some files that were scattered on the table. Max came upon a small sheet of paper and froze. Alec had heard footsteps and said they had to leave. But Max didn't budge. She just stood there staring at the paper in front of her until Alec finally dragged her away.
3:57PM
"So why did you freeze up back there?" Alec finally said breaking the silence.
"My barcode number, it was on the paper, and next to it was some of that writing," Max said while digging into her ice cream.
"So?"
"So? All you have to say is 'so'? They know something about me that I don't and all you have to say is 'so'?"
"We have established the fact that all I have to say is 'so'. Can we move on?"
"Sorry, it's just bugging me, you know, everything that's been going on lately. I have a lot on my mind. And everything seems to be going wrong."
Alec looked back at Max. He knew she wasn't doing to well lately. Original Cindy had told him that she hasn't eaten anything for the past three days. She also told him that she had barely spoken a word to anybody, but Alec had already known that - he had been one of them.
Max continued to look at her half eaten ice cream. It was melting, so she decided to give up. Besides she wasn't feeling to well. She knew Alec was watching her so she never looked up. She didn't want to talk to him. She didn't want to talk to anyone.
Max and Original Cindy's Apartment 7:02PM
"Are you sure you're alright?" Original Cindy asked again, more concerned this time.
"I'm fine. Go to Crash. I'll meet you there later if I feel better," Max said while holding in the urge to puke her guts out.
"Aiight, boo. Call me if you need anything, okay?"
"Yeah, sure, see you later."
Max heard the door shut and listened for Original Cindy footsteps to fade away before throwing up again. She cleaned her mouth and leaned against the wall. She was regretting having that ice cream with Alec before - she should have thought before eating it. After she felt better she decided to go outside to the living room. She hadn't been able to keep any food down for a while now. She decided it was time to pay good old Dr. Carr a visit.
Dr. Carr's Office Tuesday 7:54AM
"Thanks for seeing me so early, Sam. I know it's early, but I really haven't been feeling myself lately."
"No problem, Max. Sorry it's taking so long."
"Don't worry; I've got plenty of time."
"Good. I have some important news and I'm not sure how you're going to handle it."
"What? Is it bad? Do I want to know? Please, tell me what is it?"
Max had no idea why she was freaking out so. She had been on the edge lately but never this bad. The tension was killing her. She had no idea what he was about to say. And when he finally said it she kind of wished he was joking.
Max and Original Cindy's Apartment 8:45AM
Original Cindy came out of her room half asleep. She saw Max standing in front of the window. It was raining so she figured she and Logan had a fight. They always seemed to fight when it rained, and she was always by the window afterwards.
"Fight with Logan?"
"Future fight with Logan."
"And how do you know you two are going to have a fight? I thought you had made up."
"We did. And now there's going to be another clash between us."
"And what would this clash be?"
Without turning around, Max answered her friend with a simple two words.
"I'm pregnant."
