As we walked down the hallway hand in hand I turned my head to look him in the eyes. Once he realized I was staring at him he stopped abruptly.

"What is it Maxxie?"

"Nothing, I'm just so glad you decided to do this Tone, y'a know, sticking by me and all."

"Well Maxxie, I had plenty of time to think about it last night, I barely got a wink of sleep, but anyways, I realized that you are really the only person who understands me and the way my mind works, Michelle would never be able to understand that."

"Tony"

"Hang on Maxxie, just let me say this, no matter what happens with our friends, Sid, Michelle, Anwar or Chris, I will stick by you, I want to be the one laying next to you when you are sick in bed, I want to be the one to wish you goodnight and kiss you good morning, I want to be the one that you spend the rest of your life with and I know that that is a lot to ask, especially since we have only spent one night together, but as I said I truly believe that you are and will always be the only one who understands me, and I hope you feel the same way about me."

"Tone, for some reason, every word that comes out of your mouth makes me fall in love with you more and more, but you have to promise me one thing, don't ever hurt me. I swear to god, I don't know if I could handle that."

"I promise Maxxie, I will do everything in my power to not hurt you, I want this to work Max, I want us to work."

We continued down the hallway until we reached the doors that led to the dining hall, we stopped once again just outside the doors. We looked each other in the eyes giving a silent good luck and only affirming it with a short, sweet and passionate kiss just before we walked through the doors.

The moment we walked through the doors you could hear the difference in the noise level. Before there were whispers and conversations even someone yelling about, probably Michelle, but as soon as we were in the room you could hear a pin drop.

I quickly spotted Michelle since she was the only one standing up and was glaring at me with the most disdainful look I've ever seen. I smiled lightly and raised my hand to wave, it just happened to be the hand that was holding Tony's. Oops.

The look on her face went from disdain to pure hatred.

I smiled even brighter as Tony led me over to the buffet line. Everyone was still quiet in the background as Tony dished out enough slop for two onto his tray, and they remained so until we sat down at a table of our own and began to 'eat'. Five minutes into the meal Michelle finally worked up the courage to come over and 'talk' to us. Two minutes later Jal had to come running over to shut her up.

"'Chelle, obviously Tony has chosen Maxxie, and the best thing to do in this situation is to wish them the best of luck and move on."

"Fine Jal, but Maxxie, don't get too comfortable, he hurts everyone, and what makes you think you're any different, he will hurt you too."

"I know that there is the possibility of me getting hurt 'Chelle, but I'll take my chances and take what comes in stride."

As Michelle walked back to her table I turned to Tony and was surprised when Jal returned with her tray of food, sitting next to me accompanied by Chris who sat next to Tony.

"So," said Chris "You two got it on last ni- ow- Jal what was that for, I was just asking a question."

"Just shut up Chris we're here for support, I'm sorry about Michelle, Maxxie, she's being a right bitch."

"But you think she's right, don't you, you think I'll end up getting hurt?"

"No, I just want you to be careful, you know as well as I do, Tony has history."

"Way to talk about me like I'm not here Jal."

"Sorry Tony, but you know I'm right, I just want Maxxie to be ready for whatever he is getting into."

"Trust me Jal, I know what I'm doing, and what I'm getting into, I trust Tony about as far as I can throw him, but I believe that he will try, and that's all I can ask for."

I felt Tony's foot rub against my leg and I smiled at him the toothiest smile I could muster.

"Oh and Chris, yes we got it on last night."

"Ha, wow Maxxie, way to flaunt it."

We sat through the rest of 'breakfast' silently, but we were heading home soon enough thanks to Anwar and Sid's adventures with a Russian hottie. On the plane back home I sat next to Tony, my head resting on his shoulder his fingers entwined in mine. As we landed I looked into his eyes and saw a slight sparkle as he looked back at me.

"I love you Maxxie, and I want to share that with the world."

"I love you too Tone."

He placed his lips over mine and I kissed him back, he asked for entrance into my mouth by sliding his tongue over my lower lip. I quickly allowed it willing him to explore every inch of my welcoming mouth.

"Echm." Came the voice from next to us. Chris and Jal were staring at us with concern.

"Are you two sure you don't want to head to the bathroom, y'a know join the mile high club." Said Chris with a smile from ear to ear.

"Don't worry Chris, every time we're together we're already a mile high." Said Tony kissing me once more.

As we walked out of the airport Tony's parents were nowhere in sight and so I convinced him to come home with me, maybe, y'a know, spend the night.

A/N: I hope you enjoyed this chapter, the story will continue like this for a while, and eventually something will happen that will throw a wrench into the works, but until then next chapter equals LOTS-O'-SMUT!!!!
