A normal conversation

by aperrywilliams

The story begins when Spencer leaves Max to go to the hospital during the birth of Simmons' daughter ("Saturday" episode). It is definitely a #maxcer story. I hope to complete more chapters until the end of season 15 at least. The original text was in spanish so I had to translated it, be kind :) Tell me what do you think.

1. Chapter 1: Back to the Park

Chapter 1: Back to the park

Max wasn't sure if she must go back to the park that night. She thought it was almost delusional that Spencer returned that same day, to the same place only to meet her. She had just said "find me," and that didn't mean anything. Maybe it could even have been a fancy way of showing disinterest.

- It is nonsense Max, an enormous nonsense - she said to herself, as she took the clothes out of the closet to change herself - why would he look for me? We only had a normal conversation ... in an unusual situation - she kept saying to herself - Heck Max! What did you do? Yes, he looked like a handsome, educated, decent man… interesting one. And you let him go with a ridiculous challenge - when she finished ordering her clothes, she went to the shower, but not before letting out a groan of annoyance.

When she got out of the shower, Max saw the clock. It was almost 7:00 p.m. As she got dressed she thought about what she would do next. She thought about turning on the television and watching a program before dinner. "Yes, I will do that," she said with determination. She took the remote control, sat on the sofa, and turned on the TV. She was zapping for several minutes but found nothing interesting to see. - A movie perhaps? – thought aloud. - Or maybe go to the park ... - she said in a low voice to herself - why not? - encouraged herself. She was zapping longer waiting for something to catch her on TV. From one moment to the next, she got up and turned off the TV - Well, why not live the disappointment at once? - She got up, took her jacket, her purse, the keys to her apartment and left closing the door.

It was already dark when she arrived to the park. She walked for a few minutes, doing the same tour she did with Spencer hours earlier. Max saw the bench where they were sitting talking. There was no one sitting on it. She took a deep breath and sat down. Meanwhile she watched people jogging still. There were not many children playing. She saw some people on their bikes leaving the park. She began to notice that there were couples holding hands walking. A few were walking their dogs. Time passed and Max agreed that perhaps it was not the best idea to be there. She looked at her cellphone to check the clock. It was already dark and it was getting cold. She got up from the bench and thought about going back to her apartment. - Well, I think that's it. I don't know what I really came to, this was a stupid idea Max! It is obvious that he will not come today - she walked towards one exit of the park thinking of leaving it. She passed by the side of some food trucks and smelled fresh coffee. "Why not", she thought, "so I don't miss the trip". Max went to one of the trucks and bought a coffee cup. After paying and having his steaming coffee in her hands, she sat down at the table on one of the wooden benches that were there. The smell of coffee was exquisite, and that comforted her. She began to think about the things that she has to do and that had passed into the background after the "encounter" with the young FBI agent - My car! – stated - I will have to recover it tomorrow Sunday. I hope they let me get it out and they haven't crashed it. A grimace of discomfort appeared on her face. She took a sip of coffee and sighed. "This is your life, Maxine," she told herself. - An ordinary life. You don't have a movie life, the prince charming won't come. Leave it at once ... - She shook her head making a denial sign and took a sip of his coffee again. People passed around her, but she no longer cared about. She was deep in her thought as she warmed her hands with the cup of coffee.

She spent several minutes looking at his cup of coffee. People kept passing around her. But "something" made her looked up. In the middle of the crowd she saw a figure that she recognized immediately when she noticed that he was wearing a white hooding with a city logo printed - I can't believe it ... - she said to herself. The man managed to recognize her among the people and looked at her while a smile appeared on his face. She instinctively replied with a grimace, shrugging her shoulders and smirking.
