Fayth- I had to get this out of my head. Sorry if it's lousy but seriously I couldn't write with this knocking about. I blame…Alec. Yeah hear me? Your fault! Now come over here and…
The Bet.
"So I said to this girl that she was truly special, I had never seen anyone like her before and all girls paled in comparison." Alec finished with his usual cocky smirk firmly in place.
"Wow!" Sketchy said, obviously in awe.
They were in Jam Pony and Alec was doing his best to get out of doing any runs. He had Sketchy enraptured by his tales and he knew that the guy was taking notes. He had struck up the conversation right here in the vain hope that Max would hear and be so overcome with jealousy that she'd come over and proclaim her undying devotion. Of course she was more likely to be pissed off at his unending litany of girl conquests and kick his ass, but that worked for him too. As long as she was paying attention that was good. But it seemed his plan wasn't working as he tuned in to her conversation with O.C.
"-bet you can't!"
"I so can!"
"Ain't possible boo, O.C doesn't believe you suga."
Alec sighed, she wasn't even listening. He'd have to try harder "So then the next day, I wake up in her bedroom and get up to leave when who is in the kitchen making breakfast but her sister… who slips me her number before I leave and she lets me know that she has a roommate!"
"Oh to be you!" Sketchy whines in despair and Alec's ego returned.
"No way!" O.C.'s voice didn't diminish his tale as he carried on hoping to at least garner Sketchy's interest and approval if nothing else.
"Yep, life was good to Alec that week!"
"I so can!" Max's voice was getting higher pitched and Alec had to raise his voice to drown her out.
"Of course the next day when I met them both at Crash, it was less pretty." He winced at the memory.
"So how did you get Layla and Miquette?" Sketchy was eager to know and Alec preened.
"Ok suga you say you can, then prove it."
"Oh come on Sketch, after Little Suki, those two were a breeze, see what the girl's can't deny is charm and sophistication. A little backchat, a little compliment and they are putty in your hands. There isn't a lady alive who can resist my lines."
"Fine!"
Alec sighed- with the possible exception of Max. "But see, it's a case of always looking your best, always knowing the right thing to say, being suave and-"
Alec broke off as he felt a hand on his arm swinging him around and before he could react he had Max's lips plastered to his own.
Max slanted her mouth over his and used his open mouthed shock to her benefit and she snaked her tongue into his mouth, curling it around his and tasting him deeply.
The kiss was over in seconds and Max pulled away before he could ghet enough sense together to respond.
She paused for a brief second to watch the stupefication run over his face and she gave a huge satisfied smile and twirled, walking back to O.C.
O.C gaped as Alec stared after Max, his jaw open and eyes glazed.
"See I told you I could shut him up without violence," Max held out her hand "Pay up."
Alec stared unblinkingly at the raven haired girl "Whu… the kis… she… Ma-"
Sketchy leaned forward and closed Alec's jaw.
"Suave, very suave."
