Max woke up with a pounding headache.
What happened? she thought.
She needed to sit up, so groggily she set her hand down on the bed to help herself.
Wow. This mattress is higher than I remembered. It's rather lumpy too. She thought.
A dull pain throbbed in her head. She couldn't think about anything right now. All she needed was some aspirin.
The bed creaked underneath her as she began to climb off.
"Mhmmm."
Max stopped and her senses heightened. Beds normally didn't make those types of sounds.
She didn't know why she did it, but when she turned around and saw the sleeping form in the bed- knowing it was there- she let out a squeal, causing the sleeping form, to wake up.
As he sat straight up, half awake, hungover, and wondering where the sound he heard came from, Max's jaw dropped.
"Alec?!"
What had she gotten herself into?
A/N This is my first Dark Angel fic, so reviews are very much appreciated. Sorry this part is so short, I just wanted to set it up.
