Chapter 6 - An Apology

Check my biography for the links!

I kept thinking about what Max told me at the park the other day. I couldn't even tell if he was telling me the truth about him and Ali. My mom thought it would be a good idea to spend time with Delilah so I can get my mind off Max. This was sort of a good idea, but I told Delilah no Max Schneider, which must've been hell for her. Since mom was working, Delilah and I were just going to chill at home. Delilah was channel surfing while I was strumming on my ukulele.

"Ugh, Lulu there's nothing on." Delilah complained.

"Come on Dee, there has to be something on." I said while I put my ukulele.

"Look, you see." She said while channel surfing. "News, news, How to Rock that we've seen already, Jersey Shore like seriously, Max's CastroTV interview. MAX'S CASTROTV INTERVIEW!"

She turned towards me.

"Go ahead, you went over 2 hours not fangirling over him. I think you need to watch this before you go insane." I said.

She tuned to the channel and there was Max talking to Castro.

"So, rumors are that you've been seeing my daughter, is this true?" he said.

"Well Castro. Ali is a great girl. I have a feeling I'm going to be really happy with her." Max said.

I couldn't help but feel sick when he said that. I felt my eyes start to water again.

"Lulu, I can change it if you want." Delilah said.

"No, don't worry. I'm fine. I would love to hear all the garbage he's going to say.

"So Max, how did you and Ali meet?" Castro asked.

"Well, I met her at… Wow I can't remember. But the minute I looked into Lulu's eyes, I knew she was the one I wanted to be with." Max said.

I couldn't believe what I just heard.

"He just said Lulu." Delilah said.

"SHUT UP HE'S GOING TO TALK AGAIN!" I said while throwing a pillow at her.

"I'm sorry, who's Lulu? I believe we were talking about Ali." Castro said.

"Castro, I can't do this anymore. I don't care if you have the pictures; go ahead show the world right now! Lulu is an amazing person! She's beautiful and I fell in love with her the first time I met her. And I just screwed our chances of being together because of your daughter!" Max yelled.

I couldn't believe what he just did.

"Look, Lulu if you're watching this, which you probably aren't, I'm truly and terribly sorry. Ali was a big mistake; I need you in my life. I've never felt so happy when I had you in my life. I love you, Lulu Antariksa." He said straight to the camera.

"Uhmm, we'll be right back after this commercial break." Castro said.

Delilah turned the TV off and looked at me. "What just happened?"

"Max just said he loved me on national television." I said.

After dinner, I quickly hopped into the shower. After my shower, I ran into Delilah's room and looked for a book that had Max's address. Of course it was in the book that was under her pillow. Now, that I got the information I need, I had to get ready. I put my natural make up on and left my hair in its natural curls. I tried to look for an outfit just perfect for Max. I ended up wearing. I drove to Max's house, it was HUGE. I walked up the steps and rang the doorbell. A few seconds later, a shirtless Max was standing right in front of me.

"Lulu, what are you doing here?" he asked.

"Max, I saw you're interview with Castro. And I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for not believing you and-" I was cut off by Max's lips crashing into mines. Here comes the sparks again. As soon as it was over Max smiled.

"No need to explain baby. We need that second date, tomorrow." Max said.

"I'd love that." I said.

"You should go home it's pretty late." Max said kissing my forehead.

I waved goodbye, "Hey Max."

He turned around.

"I love you."
