Just Do It Cause You Have To

I still do not own anything but what I made up hope you guys enjoy cause here comes some drama lol-LibraDiva83

Saturday morning is what was waiting for me. I slept pretty good for someone who cried herself to sleep almost every night. The sun was peeping through my blinds, as I thought about not moving out of bed and then I discovered that I couldn't move something light weight was holding me in place and I looked down because I felt it on my stomach area and low and behold there it was. What I dream he would happen when I was awake Terry's arm was around my waist and holding on to me really good. I started to get somewhat happy until I realized that he probably doesn't know what he's doing. Terry has that kinda of habit especially when he's been out all night patrolling, in other words his body is bone tried like I get from pulling an all niter studying. So I began to move to start my workout downstairs in the gym. Only as I moved Terry pulled me tighter towards him

"Geez, he's strong in his sleep"

"Max where are you going, stay"

"it's Saturday I'm going to workout"

"no Maxine you don't need it your body's amazing surly you could give up one weekend, so stay in bed with me"

"I don't think you know what your saying McGinnis now come on and let me go"

"I know what I'm saying, which is I want your amazing ass to stay here in bed with me"

Max taken aback for some moments wasn't sure if he had left the bed in the middle of the night and had a drink or two because his words and actions were not making any sense to her. So she stop and looked at him and he opened his eyes and looked back at her. "What's with you McGinnis, why do you want me to stay in bed all of a sudden you know I workout every Saturday"

"Because I'm sick of this and I'm not gonna keep letting this happen, you think I don't know you been crying yourself to sleep every night"

Max's face dropped immediately she looked into his sea clear blue eyes and couldn't understand how he knew that. She was always quite she never let on anything about it in anyway. How could he know, so Max did the only thing her brain told her to do, lie "I don't know what your talking about Terry"

"Then why did your face drop as soon as I said the words, come on Max I know you I was hoping you would tell me on your own"

"Terry, please don't do this everything is fine I just wanna workout"

"you mean you just wanna get away from me so you won't have to tell me"

"Why are you pushing this, I mean your acting like I'm your girlfriend or something and I'm not I'm your best friend"

"And I been with you longer than any girlfriend, come on Max tell me what is it"

"look Terry just drop it there is nothing to talk about everything is fine now let go"

And with that Max jumped out of bed and made her way to the gym. After changing in the locker room she was spinning and she couldn't understand or piece together why Terry was acting the way a boyfriend acts when concerned about a girlfriend. Then she started to replay what happened word for word in her mind. Terry didn't wanna let her go while he was holding her in bed, which happened a few times but never this intense. Then she remembered what he said about her that she had an amazing ass, which means he looked at her rear end he had checked her out before could he like her somewhat. No this was Terry she thought, he would never look at her that way but he did buy her a promise ring she thought as she glanced down at it. It was such a beautiful band and it was a diamond one too. Guys only buy diamonds for girls they love right. No this was Terry her Terry, her best friend for always that's what he's always had and will be. She had no idea that Terry up in her room, was thinking how could she not know how he felt about her. He was sure the promise rings would help reveal his feelings towards her but he thought out loud to himself "I guess I gotta go bigger and really show her this time but what " He knew Max was not the traditional girl next girl, but a girl none the less and what do girls like for guys to buy them diamonds. Terry had already did that and it didn't seem like it worked, even though he saw that she never took the ring off even when she showered. "So it must mean something, how can I get into her mind and let her know that I'm in love with her" He thought maybe more time together, girls like that. He said out loud "yeah, that's gotta be it cause I never spent any time with Dana and she was always complaining about it which Max was witness to" Dana, the ex girlfriend who got married two years ago after he broke up with her when he caught her cheating on him with Nelson. He didn't care anyway by that point because was already in love with Max. Terry thought this was gonna take a little help from Mr. Wayne aka Dad. Terry then jumped into Max's shower quick and then dressed as soon as he picked up his backpack with the suit inside. Terry saw a small pink book that look like a dairy on the floor that was underneath his backpack. He picked it up and really didn't want to invade Max's privacy, but he just wanted a small hint of some help to what she would like. Terry opened the book and the top of the page read

I would really love just to come home and see some kind of romantic gesture from a guy who was in love with me, some sort of way to show me that I was always on his mind and that I'm special in his eyes. But that will never happen because no one is in love with me, And no matter what I must never break the promise by any means. If Terry knew it would destroy everything and I could never get it back, I'll do what ever it takes

Terry then closed the book and placed in Max's nightstand and said "I never knew she felt like that, what promise is she talking about maybe I can get her to tell me on her own. I can do something like that, but it can't be too grand cause then she'll know I read her diary and I'm gonna have to wait it out a bit so she'll be caught off guard" Then Max walked into the room and says "McGinnis I sure hope your talking to Mr. Wayne otherwise you need to be checked out" Terry looked up to see Max standing there and his eyes opened wide, he saw Max standing in front of him wearing a black sports bra and black workout leggings with black and white nike sneakers sweating. Her body was as fit as he'd ever seen her with curves in all the right places, she look like an ad for a workout tape.

"McGinnis, McGinnis, land it's a clear day you can do it"

"Huh, what, oh yeah yeah that was the old man I gotta go"

"you sure your okay why were you staring off in space"

"no reason everything is good, Max I just gotta go I'll call you later"

Terry then walked out and Max couldn't understand what was going through his mind to make him blank out, so she tried to dust it off. "I gotta keep busy no matter what so I can keep Terry off my mind I have to and just so I keep my goal in mind my punishment will be to workout every time I stray" Max took a shower, dressed in black leggings and a pink off one shoulder t-shirt that read To The Max... Terry gave her the shirt as a thank you for all the batwork she did for him and she had one in every color as well. The pink one was her favorite because it complimented her pixie pink hair. She then cut her television and DVD player on and put on the first disc to her personal marathon to Law & Order SVU. "great this should do it, here we go"

Meanwhile Terry was with Mr. Wayne getting some father and son time in the batcave. They had been adding that part into their relationship since they found out the truth. Terry took the news well because he already saw Bruce as a father figure. And Bruce surprisingly took the news well too, because he grew to care about Terry in a way that the others couldn't grab him. He saw himself in Terry and vowed to do everything he could to make sure that Terry wouldn't end up alone, when Wayne Manor was left to him. A little fact that Terry didn't know, was Bruce redid his will right after he hired Terry. He would also inherit everything that was in Bruce's name, such as Wayne Powers. And a new company Bruce set up especially for Terry and Matt called McGinnis Wayne. Bruce also spent time with Matt as well by bringing him over to Wayne Manor, in which he both boys had their own rooms and a play room filled with vid games and toys for Matt. Bruce was typing in to the computer while Terry was petting Ace

"so why were you reading her diary again"

"because I need to find out what she likes, you know like what kinda stuff she's into"

"she wasn't into the diamond ring that you got her"

"uh yeah, but she thinks that I was giving it to her as her best friend not the guy that likes her"

"okay so what's your next plan"

"giving her something romantical"

"alright then why do you need my help"

"because your the famous ladies man Bruce Wayne, help me out here what do I do"

okay first off romantical, not a word. Second I wasn't that much a ladies man as you think. Third your a Wayne too, what do you think says romance"

"uh, something like a candle lit dinner"

figures the first thing you would think of is food, yeah but women like to be wowed and feel like you went out of your way for them try a private candle lit dinner for two"

"okay yeah, where"

"The Passion Place"

"The Passion Place, what are you crazy old man I can't afford that it's like a grand a night there and you need a reservation which has a waiting list, or so I heard"

"when did you go"

"on my way here"

"I know the owner his son works at Wayne Powers I will arrange for you and Max to have a 3 day and night stay, will that be enough time to wow her"

"yeah"

"I will call and set it all up, do you know Max's dress size I'll have my good friend Claire pick out a dress, tucks and clothing for the two of you she owns La Tore"

"La Tore, that's the biggest designer in Gotham wow you really know all the high rollers"

"as you said I am Bruce Wayne"

"Schway, hey wait what's the catch"

"your my son and this is a good opportunity for you to meet some of Gotham's elite society, you'll need to know them anyway when I'm gone it's good for business and will help you a great deal on the personal side"

"okay I get it this works out for us both, and she wears a size 8"

"I'm calling now, take Ace out for a walk"

"already on it he's walking in circles, come on boy"

A few hours later...

Back at Max's she was doing really good she was 2 hours into her marathon and then Terry came to her mind about every few moments, and she worked out every time. Which means she took about 5 showers. It was painful her body was so sore but she kept going. She was almost an hour into the TV and the victim's name was Terry. That was it her mind went straight to him, as she said to herself "I wonder what Terry's doing right now" Then she realized her weak moment "Damn" she thought "I just can't keep doing this, my body is so sore but I know I have to" with that she walked right back into her living room and towards the left was an area off to the side with it's own space and her treadmill was placed there she got on and began her journey to what seemed like hell. As he kept going her sight became blur and her head light and heavy at the same time. Max stop thinking maybe it would be better to lay down. Grabbing her head with one hand, she stepped down off the treadmill with her heart beating fast like beating drums and hard like a punch breaking it's way through her chest captivity. She took another step and fell on the floor of her living room.

Back at Wayne Manor

Bruce, Terry and Ace were still in the cave. "old man what could you still be typing on the keyboard"

"just keeping up dates, you know Willy Watt was released a few days ago and he seems to be keeping a low profile but I still got my eyes on him"

"do you think he's up to something"

"can't be sure, but my gut says yeah"

"we haven't heard nothing, when he get out"

"five days ago"

"well then that's good, usually he get's right into it"

"yeah, that's why I'm not really sure what he up to he's got a job and everything and he's not even using his powers"

"well just watch him and then-" Terry goes quite and a blank look crosses his face

"Terry what is it"

"I got a bad feeling all of a sudden"

"it's called gas"

"no, not like that like something's wrong really wrong I got a chill up my spine and everything I'm gonna call Max" Terry pulls out his phone and calls Max, the phone rings for ten minutes then Terry hangs up. "She's not answering, I think I should go over there and see if she's okay"

"maybe she just needs some time to herself, that's how woman are let her be for a while you said yourself she didn't want you to touch her this morning"

"I suppose your right I'll give her a while"

Not knowing for sure that something really is wrong with Max, Terry decides to let her be and hangs out with Bruce and Ace in Wayne Manor making plans for the romantic dinner that became the weekend that Bruce has helped him out with for Max. He feels the urge in his soul that something really is wrong and wants to check it out. But at the same time he also wants to give Max her space because he doesn't want to scare her off. Then the weekend will be for nothing. Terry sets the date for next weekend, he will just come over to have movie night like always and this way Max won't see it coming she'll think it's just another night with him. But this night he was gonna make sure she didn't cry herself to sleep, she would close her eyes with a smile on her face because he loved her, but he also wanted to know what promise she mentioned in her diary. Was it good or bad and who was the promise made to, he had to find out and he just had it to.
