DON'T GO

A/N :- I am not sure of how many chapters this will be but I just wanted to get this out there. This is my take on the first kiss scene after Maggie has given the speech and she calls after Alex as she leaves. Each part will be in both Maggie's and Alex's point of view. This is only a tester to see if people want more.

Alex's POV

"Yeah we're cool!" I say turning away from Maggie.

How could I stay after I just humiliated myself in the worst way possible and in front of so many people.

"Alex don't go!" I hear Maggie call after me as tears threaten to fall.

"I'll see ya!" I say as I rush out the door. I take my helmet and put it on. I just feel the need to get out of town and hide. But I find myself back at my apartment. I rush up the stairs and the tears spill over.

'How stupid was I to think that Maggie could actually like me!" I shout at myself internally.

My Cell phone starts vibrating in my pocket and I see SAWYER flashing on the screen. After about 20 seconds it stops as it goes through to voicemail. I make my way to the cupboard where I know I have a bottle of whiskey for emergencies. And I feel that this is such an occasion.

I sit in the dimly lit room and go through everything trying to work out what I did wrong. All I go back to is how good it felt when I kissed her. How I knew that she was the one for me. Ever nerve ending still tingled from thinking about it now. Maggie had rejected me though. She didn't want me in that way. She only wanted friendship.

I curl up into myself and start to feel angry. Not only at myself but now it is aimed at Maggie too. If she hadn't made me think about what I wanted so much I wouldn't be here now. Drowning my sorrows and nursing my broken heart. I had never believed in 'being in love' but with how I felt now I knew love was a real thing and I had and still was feeling it.

Maggie's POV

"Are we cool?" I asked Alex. I can see her eyes well up.

'Shit she is not OK' I think to myself 'Maybe I could have worded this so much better!'

"Yeah we're cool!" Alex replies but her voice is struggling to stay even, it breaks my heart to see her so upset. She has turned around and is walking away from me.

"Alex Don't go!" I call after her. I hope that she doesn't go. I don't want to leave things like this. I wanted to try and explain things better.

"I'll see ya!" I hear Alex say as she almost runs to the door to get away from me. I cover my face and I try not to cry myself.

I care deeply for Alex, we have become good friends recently, she is quite possibly the only person outside of my family I have let in. yet I have ruined everything in the space of a couple of minutes. I could try and deny that when she kissed me I felt a fire inside that I haven't felt in years. I couldn't do that to Alex though. She is too important to me. I couldn't get into anything with her, she was just discovering herself and if I took that away how would I live with myself. I couldn't bear the thought of my hurting her.

The sound of her motorbike screeching off made my heart pound, was she really in the right frame of mind to be riding her beast?

I sit at the bar and order myself a beer and a tequila shot. I down the shot and drink half the bottle of beer in less than a minute. I order more. I need the courage as I need to call Alex. I can't leave things how they are.

I have been sat for I don't know how long just looking at my cell phone. I am scared, what if she rejects me this time? Where do we go from that?

I turn the phone over in my hand and I smile when I see the picture of Alex and me when we were all dressed up for that fight club gig. Without thinking I find that I am tracing Alex's features with my index figure.

"Maggie the call won't make itself!" M'Gann says to me.

! I know but what if she hates me now?" I reply,' but she said so was cool? She wouldn't lie to me would she?'

"Then you deal Maggie. She will be hurting big time, you are probably the first person she has felt like this about and you send her away!" M'Gann said, she had heard Alex's cries of despair as she had left.

"OK don't ride my ass M'Gann. I'm scared too!" Maggie said into her beer.

"Call her! If she doesn't answer leave a message! But don't do anything! Or do you want to lose the best thing that's ever happened to you?" M'Gann said honestly.

Picking up her phone Maggie swiped this way and that before she reached Alex's number.

M'Gann nodded at her to give her encouragement before she moved away to give Maggie some privacy.

Maggie tapped the screen to make the call.

"Hey this is Alex, please leave a message and I will get back to you…. Beep!" The answer phone kicked in.

"Hey Danvers I just wanted to make sure you were alright. Drop me a call or text when you get this and we should talk some more. I really wished you would have stayed. Ok call me soon. Oh it's Maggie by the way!" Maggie started off well before she started rambling. She hit her head on the bar at the thought of Alex listening to the message and thinking WTF!

Maggie ordered more drinks. She wanted to get rid of this feeling that she had. She had never felt like this before and she hated it.

"What you are feeling is guilt Maggie!" An empathy Alien said matter of factly as she sat next to Maggie.

"What the hell?" Maggie spat out.

"I'm an Empath, I fed on emotions and help people deal with them! My name is Miranda." The alien said.

Maggie almost spat out her drink, she had heard about these empathy aliens and not to trust them.

"You would be right not to trust me. I can feel you scepticism radiating off you! I mean you no harm. I am just here to drink tonight!" Miranda explained.

Maggie wasn't in the mood to argue or fight so she just shrugged her shoulders and carried on with her drinking.
