Part 8

Alec was on a high. He couldn't stop touching Violet, whether it was her hair or her skin, he couldn't get enough. And the way she blushed & giggled over what he did, made him want to touch her even more.

Then came the time for her to go.

" But I don't want to go home yet," she protested.

" I don't want you to go home either, Vi. But you gotta," Alec stated as he kissed her lightly on the lips. " You weren't suppose to come back today & you have already been here almost all day. What if you get sick? You'll have to stay home for two days now."

" What about work?"

" I'll come over to your house so we can work on everything. But don't come back until you're body has gotten its rest okay?"

Violet sighed but nodded. He smiled & kissed her again. As he took her hand, Alec went to open the door when he stopped & turned to her.

" What's up?" she asked.

" I was just thinking, how do you feel about letting people know about this?"

" I… I hadn't thought about it," Violet replied as she bit her bottom lip. " I was to busy wondering about us to think about anyone else."

" Yeah, same here," he glanced at her. " Its up to you, Baby."

" You're in this relationship too."

Alec cocked a sexy grin. " I don't know much about relationships, Babe, you'll have to help me."

" Then what a good time for this to come up," she grinned at him, " now we can both decide how we want to handle this."

Alec pulled her into a hug & kissed the top of her head. She melted back into him & tightened her arms around him. As he stroked her back, they went over how they felt people would react to them being together. Aside from an occasional teasing from Mole, they couldn't see any reason for them not telling.

" What about Max?" Violet looked up at him.

" I knew you were going to ask me that," Alec said. " I honestly don't know, Babe. I guess we'll have to let it play out & see what happens. I mean, we weren't going out or anything & she is in love with Logan. I can't see why she would say anything about us being together." He had decided not to tell her about his little run in with Max the night before. " Other then being finally able to tease me about being with an ordinary, I think she'll be cool with it."

" Ordinary?" she smirked.

" Uh... eh, I mean… that is to say… compared to… no," Alec paused, then smiled some, " Um... how about another kiss?"

Violet's head slowly went from side to side & Alec gave a slight nervous smile. He reached up & caressed her cheek.

" You know you're not ordinary, Vi. You know what I am talking about."

" Be thankful I do."

" Oh I am, I'd hate to have to see you not get to touch you."

" Is that all that matters?"

" Just the icing on the cake," he winked at her.

Violet rolled her eyes & then leaned up to kiss him. It was a soft & tender kiss. As they pulled from each other, Alec smiled as he took her hand & opened the door. They walked out of his office & down the stairs. Slowly the Transgenics began to forget what they were doing as they watched Alec hold Violet's hand. Something like that would be all over TC by sundown.

" Well, well… what's this?" Mole asked, still puffing his cigar.

" Well we know I'm Alec & this is Violet," Alec said with a grin. " What are you missing, Mole?"

He gestured to their hands.

" Ah, that," Alec pulled Violet a little closer. " You wanna tell him Baby or should I?"

" I think you started to tell him, might as well finish," Violet grinned at them.

" Alright. Mole, Violet's my girl now."

" So much for a romantic way of telling people," she muttered under her breath, suppressing a smile.

Mole formed a smile around his cigar. " You're girl? Since when do you settle for one, Alec?"

" Since now."

" And you are actually giving pretty boy a shot here?"

" What can I say?" Violet said with a grin. " It gets pretty boring around here. We figured TC could use a scandal."

" And what a scandal. Wonder how Max will take this."

Alec shrugged. " Don't know. And we aren't to worried about it right now. Catch ya later, Mole."

With a nod, Mole waved after them as they walked outside. They headed for the gate, as they walked in silence just holding the other hand. More Trans stopped to watch them, whispers were thrown out & some pointed. While some smiled, others frowned. But they weren't paying much attention to anyone.

As they reached the gate, Alec told Dalton to open the gate. Before Violet walked through the gate, she hugged Alec once more.

" I'll see you in a few days," he whispered against her hair.

" Good, I can't wait," she whispered back.

Slowly they pulled apart & Violet headed out of TC, back to her apartment. They waved to each other & both began to anticipate the next time they would see each other.

Neither of them knowing that they were being watched from afar.
