Our First Year

Ok this is a series of one-shot pieces for the Live Journal community 10 settings.... Each chapter is based and set in a scene prompt and will be about Spinelli and Maxie. I don't own General Hospital and any resemblance to anything else is purely coincidence.

May 2009-

A warm breaze blew across her bare shoulders as she watched as he stood in the motel parking lot holding the car door opened like the gentleman he was.

"Are you sure I look alright," she asked in a paniced voise knowing already what he was going to say.

"You never looked lovlier Maximista," he said placeing a sweet kiss on her cheek as she climbed inside the car and he walked around to the drivers seat.

She smiled as he placed the key in the ignition as butterflys settled in her stomach.

She couldn't believe this was actually happening, that on this early summer afternoon he was actually taking her to meet his Granny, the woman who was the only real family he had left in the world.

She let out a sigh hopeing to god that the aged woman would approve of her dateing her one and only grandson or if she would see through her. She wondered what would of happened if she didn'y like her, would Spinelli dump her sight on seen. It was then a rush of thought took over her.

Flicking off the radio she looked over at him.

"Spinelli may I ask you something."

He smiled looking at him from the corner of his eye while keeping focus on the road ahead of him.

"What is it Maximista."

"Do you wish I were more like Georgie."

He bit his lip thinking that she was over this phase in her life. Letting out a sigh he shook his head.

"Certantly not Maximista, why on earth would you ask this."

She shrugged.

"Because Georgie was perfect and I'm such a...a..."

"Don't say it," he said not wanting to hear her degrade herself any further.

"user."

"Your not a user Maximista."

Tears swelled up in her eyes.

"I am...hell I even used you Spinelli. Remember july."

Spinelli nodded knowing full well the events that transpired almost a year ago on Jason's coucg.

"You were hurt Maximista, The dem..Anthony Zacchara threatened your life."

Maxie let out a small half smile wondering what she had done to deserve a guy in her life like the Jackal.

Driving further along she turned to smile at him.

"What," He asked looking at her devious gaze.

"I just thought of something."

"Should I be afraid."

She smiled wider.

"I just realized I will finaly get to know where you grew up, what makes Damian Spinelli tick."

"I'm not that special you will come to realize."

"Well your special to me," she said as they now passed by a street sign reading WELCOME TO OAKFIELD.

"Oh my god Spinelli," she said with excitement in her voice, "where almost there."

He smiled.

"I see now someone isn't nervous about seeking Granny's approval."

"I'm just being good at hideing it," she admitted.

He just nodded.

"Anyway am I realy the first girl you brought to meet her."

"Yes, well besides Lulu but that wasn't realy planned...anyway the Jackal as you know had no real social life outside the cybor world."

Maxie nodded as they turned down a small country road and stopped in front of a small house.

Honking the horn now Maxie watched as an older woman steped outside.

Rolling down the window she watched him begin to talk to her.

"Granny this is Maxie," she heard him say as she watched the woman look at her and smile knowing that this was going to be a pleasant trip afterall.
