Summary: Max & Alec visit Rachel's gravesite

Authors Note: I've been gone for a very, very long time. I know this is a dying fandom, but hopefully there's still someone out there besides me who is still reading :)

It wasn't easy watching your mate stand over the grave of another woman who made such a large impact on his life. But this time was different. Alec was here to make his final goodbyes to Rachel, and just the fact that he had asked Max to come along showed how much their relationship had progressed. Finally.

Of course, seeing him show such emotion and affection for someone other than her still hurt and Max had to keep herself in check. For when they left, the past would finally be behind them.

Together they would begin their future.

And that she could damn well accept.
