MAYA POV:

While I stood by the restaurant thinking over how I should bring up the most sensitive subjects, I saw Max pull up in the parking lot. The sound of her door slamming from behind sent chills down my spine, however it was nothing compared to the expression on her face. It was like the way a lion stares at its prey before pouncing.

I'm not proud to admit that the moment she came over I stumbled in my spot. My voice was also not as clear as I had hoped it to be, as I said, "Hi Max…long time no see."

Her glare was unrelenting, and I felt myself shrink in front of her.

I had already prepared myself for what happened next, and frankly I was surprised there was not aftershock.

Max took a step forward and slapped me across the face, harder than I had anticipated and from both shock and pain I tumbled on the floor, tears already forming in my eyes. Despite how pitiful I must have looked Max continued to glance down at me with murderous intent.

It took a moment to regain my composure and she thankfully, without shoving me down again, allowed me to stand up.

Again without any words she strolled past me into the restaurant and sat down in a far off booth. I followed without question realizing that I had been holding my breath the whole time.

We sat at the booth for some time, and my hope that Max would start the conversation was diminishing. So finally, I spoke up, "I deserved that."

I knew there was about a zero percent chance she would ever sense the sincerity in that sentence, however there was nothing else to say in the moment.

When she didn't give me a fast reply I could feel my heartbeat rising and my breathing gaining stress, however my body came to a halt when she finally said, "I know."

MAX POV:

"I know." I was glad to have been able to produce such a harsh tone, and the worried expression on her face would have made me fall over laughing if in fact I wasn't ready to rip her head off.

It took her about a minute to conjour up something to reply back to me, and it sounded almost as if she was asking me permission to speak.

"Max…I need to tell you some things."

I refused to stop staring at her and she continued on cautiously.

"I…I know, that I was wrong…And I want to apologize, to…to both of you. Max…I…I…" There was regret in her voice, and I hoped that it consuming her.

The anger I had managed to control for just a split second came rushing back as she spoke, her words were like venom and I was sickened by just looking at her.

When I finally couldn't handle looking at her anymore, I intercepted her sentence.

"Look," I interrupted, "I really don't care for whatever lame excuses you have. I'm came here because I was curious to see if you had turned to rot like I had hoped, and I had some questions to how a person could be so gutless and disgusting, but the moment I saw your face, it was all clear! You're just a spineless b**** who gave up the love of her life and is never going to get him back. "

I could feel the singe of pain that last sentence caused her, and I smirked at her as I stood up from the table and walked away. However I left feeling incomplete, and so I walked back to the table, where Maya looked up at me a sliver of hope in her eyes.

Before she got any words out, I instinctively took the cup of water on the table, (brought over to our table during the period of silence) and dumped it straight over her face.

Her mouth formed a wide "o" and finally seeing some of her mascara begin to drip I walked away confidently.

I drove around the restaurant and saw Maya still sitting there gaping at the water on her hair as if she couldn't understand how it got there, and I grinned broadly before driving back home…to tell Fang.

FANG POV:

I was looking over lines in my script memorizing and acting to myself when the door opened slightly. Small footsteps came across the floor and I could feel her presence standing behind me, and a smile crept up on my face like an uncontrolled reflex. Just having her near me and I felt comforted, the person who I was completely subdued to was just in an arm lengths away from me, and I had no intent of her getting any further.

I sat there for a minute pretending that I hadn't noticed her wavering over me, and began mumbling to myself again over the script.

Until finally a pair of arms were wrapped around my neck.

I sat there frozen, words unable to form, both speech and body disabled. The silence droned on until finally I was able to take a breath and form the words I never thought I would have to say again.

"Maya?"
