Sequel to Max's Weekend

Disclaimer: Charactures not mine but story is!

Part 1

Maria had been back home little over two hours and still Max hadn't called her, maybe now that Max and she had made love to each other maybe he just didn't want to know anymore, Maria sighed and said out loud "no that isn't Max, he doesn't do things like that he cares too much, something must have happened."

Maria went to pick up the phone and dial his number when it suddenly started to ring, she snatched it up and waited for the person to talk. "Hello". "Max, hi, so what to you so long to call, it's been like two hours." "Sorry, I thought I'd give you some space, you know to think. And I thought you would want to catch up with your mom, I'm sure she must be giving you the third degree about what you were doing over the weekend." "Oh well, mom has gone to a convention, she won't be back until tomorrow, hey maybe you'd like to come over and keep me company?" "Okay, I'll be over in and hour." "Right see you then." As Maria put down the phone she had a huge grin on her face. She needed to get ready for Max coming, she looked at herself in the mirror, "Oh My God, I'm a mess, I've got to get changed." As she ran up the stairs she thought to herself, sexy or casual.

Max was also smiling when he put the phone down, then the smile turned to a frown as he remembered his conversation with Michael.

*Flashback* (at the Evan's home)

"So Max are you going to tell me what the hell's going on?" "Look Michael, what the hell are you talking aboout? Maria and I just went to the festival, and by the way what do you mean your Maria? Aren't you the same Michael who broke up with Maria in the first place? What's the matter are you jealous?" "Jealous, me? Get real Max." Michael sighed his eyes suddenly sad, "look I don't want Maria to get hurt and if your messing around with her feelings then she will be, what happens when Liz comes back after the summer, what then Max, are you even thinking about that?" "Listen Michael, it's not like that. Maria and I are just having fun, we're trying to keep our minds off the people we love, the people who are supposed to love us back." "Well Max, let me just say this king or no king, you hurt Maria and I'll make you sorry." Max was angry now, "is that a threat Michael?" "No Maxwell, that was a promise."

Michael slammed out of the house, and was walking towards his apartment when he thought to himself, Max still hadn't told him what happened in that tent. He knew he didn't really want to know the answer, that was why he didn't push the question. If it had been the wrong answer he wouldn't have been able to go on.

*End Flashback*

Max reached his room, he was sad about the argument with Michael, he didn't lie to him, he just didn't tell him everything, it had nothing to do with Michael or Liz, they were the ones who walked away from them, it was his and Maria's secret. At the thought of Maria he smiled, he went to his closet and thought to himself, suave or casual.

TBC.
