CHAPTER ONE
Alec walked through the halls of HQ rushing to get home so he could see her again. Ever since they started dating she was always on his mind. Always wondering where she was, what she was doing, and when he will be able to hold her in his arms again.
He slowly walked into their apartment and saw her standing in the bathroom brushing her hair. She was frustrated trying to get the tangles out. Alec walked into the small bathroom. "Hey." He whispered and put his arms around her. She mumbled something in return, but was obviously pleased to see him.
She finished combing her hair and turned to look at him. "I promised Gem I'd go see her. I'll see you later, okay?" she asked putting on her coat.
"Okay." He said softly. "Tell her I said hi."
"I will. Bye." She quickly kissed him on the mouth and walked out.
Alec walked into their bedroom and collapsed on the bed. He turned to his side and closed his eyes momentarily, but something caught his eye. It was a little notebook on the nightstand.
Alec picked it up and flipped through some pages. 'This is Max's diary you moron!' his conscience told him.
'Yeah, so?' he asked looking at the smooth cover.
'You are invading her privacy. She is going to be really mad at you, if she finds out you read her diary.'
Alec frowned, 'I'm her boyfriend why shouldn't I be able to read it? She shouldn't keep anything from me.'
'No, these are her thoughts.' His conscience fought him.
"I'm just gonna read a few pages." He mumbled and sat up and began reading the most recent diary.
March 28, 2022
Dear Diary,
I wish I could explain to you how happy I am. For once I have everything I ever wanted in my life. For a long time I thought it was being normal, but along the way I realized I am not normal and I should stop pretending to be. So it took me a while to adjust to acting like a transgenic, but I have all the support from everyone at TC and I have to say I am loving it. Speaking of loving, I have finally found the love of my life, and it's not in some ordinary. But instead I have totally fallen head over heals in love with a Manticore made leader. I am glad we are finally together, it's like were made for each other. (But knowing Manticore, we probably are) The happiest day of my life was when I finally admitted to my self and everyone that I was in love with this man who I have been pushing away from my self for so long. And now I am happy because I have everything, Alec, everyone at TC, a happy life. The only thing that is missing is my family. Zack, Brin, Krit, Syl, Tinga, Zane, and Jondy. If I had them my life would be complete. But I guess I can't have everything. Alec has already spoiled me enough.
Sincerely,
Max
Alec closed the diary and put it against his mouth. "Maybe I haven't spoiled you that much." He whispered gently and with a grin on his face. He got up from the bed and grabbed his cell phone.
"Yeah, I need to speak with Tonisha." He said into the phone.
"Hey, Toni. Look I need you to do me a favor. I need you to find some people for me." He pleaded.
Alec laughed, "Very funny Ton. This is serious, I need to talk about this with you in private."
"Thanks, so much."
"You are!" he said and hung up the phone. He turned around and saw Max staring at him. "Hey. How's Gem?"
"She's fine. Who was that?" she asked suspiciously.
"Uh, no one. Just a supplier." He lied.
She just nodded disbelievingly, "You ready to go to bed?"
"Yeah." He agreed and climbed into bed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next morning Alec woke and found Max sprawled across him. He carefully tried to get up, but failed. She immediately opened her eyes. "Where are you going?" she asked him.
"No where. Just going to make coffee." He mumbled still in the sleeping zone.
"Okay." She agreed. He got up and walked into the kitchen. Max checked to make sure he was gone, then grabbed his cell phone and checked the last phone calls he made. 'The last call he made was last night.' She thought. 'Yeah, the number is 285-5402.' She quickly memorized before Alec came back in.
"Hey, you want some coffee?" he shouted from the kitchen. Max hesitated putting the cell phone back where it was. "Yeah, I'll be right there!" she yelled back.
She took a deep breath and walked out. "Where's that coffee?"
~*~*~*~*~*~
Max and some other girls sat around HQ talking, Max didn't listen to anything they we're saying. 'Who was he talking to!' she thought angrily. 'I have got to find out. That's it! I can't wait any longer.' Her train of thought was interrupted.
"Max!" one of the girls yelled and she shook her head. "What?"
"I said are you okay, you seem out of it."
"I need some air." Was her response as she grabbed her coat walked out.
"Twenty bucks says it has something to do with Alec." The other girl turned around as the others nodded.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Max walked out of the building, out of TC and roamed the cold streets of Seattle. She stopped in front of a phone booth and sighed. She picked up the phone, and dialed the number she earlier read on Alec's cell phone.
The phone rang, "Yeah." A female voice said. Max didn't say anything and just hung up.
"I knew he was cheating on me!" she yelled and threw the receiver in disappointment.
