"Hey." Max called over the music, pulling up along side Fiona. "How about a ride back to civilization?" Max eyed the sunset cautiously as he turned down the radio.
Fi stopped walking and turned to the jeep that was parked beside her; A smile creapt upon Fi's lips when she saw that it was Max in the car. "Hey."
Fi looked at what Max was looking at, the beauty of the sunset poured into her brown eyes for a few seconds, but then she finally turned back to Max. "It's beautiful---" Fi pointed to the sunset. "The sunset. I never really, well we never really stayed in one place long enough to watch the sunset, but it's beautiful." Fi cracked a smile, realizing that she was babbling. Fi walked closer to the jeep.
"A ride back to civilazation? Hmm, that sounds nice. A whole lot nicer then walking. My legs were about to give out on me, I was thinking I would have to stay the night out here." Fi flashed Max a smile, she crawled into the jeep and buckled herself in. Fi stared at the radio, the music was now at a all time low; No longer blaring loudly, like it had been earlier when it had been her, Max, and Alex. "You have unique taste in music--" Fi stopped for a second, she smiled once again. "I love your taste in music, it's much like mine. I'm glad to have a person around me that isn't all into that pop... you know Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys. I tell ya, today's generation has been brainwashed."
"I have an old soul." Max answered, smirking.
Fi smiled big. "I guessed that much about you."
Max's eyes smiled. "So, I guess I'm dropping you off in front of the theatre, right?"
Fi nodded. "Yeah, I'm guessing my mom is worried about me. I haven't answered her calls, kind of been busy hanging out with Alex and you." Fi brushed her hair back. "So where did you run off to so fast earlier?"
"I had some stuff I had to do." Max answered. "Chores and things."
Fi smiled. "How fun. So are you going to the benefit concert?"
"I..." Max stopped and turned to look at Fi. "I guess I am now, aren't I?"
Fi smiled. "Cool. I'll need someone to talk to during the concert. I love my mom's concerts and all, but you seen one concert, you seen them all."
Max laughed. "I haven't laughed this much in a long time, Fiona. Thank you."
Fi laughed as well. "No problem Max. I enjoy hanging out with you, a lot of people don't like me. I guess just because I'm a little different from everybody else."
"I understand." Max said seriously. "We're almost there."
Fi looked out the car window. Fi grabbed her backpack and started searching through it and smiled as she
took out a cd single. "Um, here, it's a thank you for the ride." Fi handed Max a Sheryl Crow cd single.
Max laughed, taking the cd from Fiona. "Thanks." Max shook his head. "You're something else Fiona, I must say."
Fi smiled, her whole face shining. "I'll take that as a compliment."
Alex paced in front of the refrigator. "Come on Izzy, pick up, pick up."
Isabel glanced down at Michael, before answering the cell phone. "Hello?"
"Oh,Iz, I need to talk to you!"
"Not you too." Isabel scowled. "What Alex?"
"What do you mean?" Alex asked defensively.
"Not a thing." Isabel stared at Michael, motioning to him to leave.
"Michael, huh?" Alex asked.
Isabel sighed. "You wouldn't need advice about the infamous Fiona Phillips, would you?" Isabel asked, rolling her eyes.
"How did you know?"
"It was." Max answered as he pulled the jeep into the theatre parking lot.
Fi unbuckled her seat belt and turned to go but then she turned around, she grabbed a piece of paper and
scribbled a number on the white piece of the paper and handed it to Max. "Here. It's my cell phone number. My mom has rehearsal all day tomorrow, it's going to be extremely boring; Maybe we could hang out, it would be better then me having to being watched over by my older brother."
"I don't think," Max took the paper from Fi and stuffed into his pants pocket. "That's he's going to be a problem
while you're in Roswell. I'llmake sure of it."
Fi hopped out of the jeep and shut the door, she leaned against the door and smiled at Max. "Thanks. Hey you tell your mean older sister to be nice to you, or I'll have to pay her a visit."
"You might actually like Isabel. You remind me of her a little." Max smiled softly. "I'll be seeing ya Fiona Phillips."
Fi nodded. "Yeah, see you around Max Evans." Fi smiled and waved, and then took off towards the theatre, hoping that her mom wouldn't be too mad.
Max watched Fi enter the theatre, and peeled off to the Crashdown.
"Where's everyone?" Max asked when he walked into the Crashdown.
Michael shrugged. "I have no idea." Michael said miserably.
Isabel held up her hand. "Be right with you." Isabel turned her face towards the corner and kept talking to Alex.
"Hey Irene." Molly jumped off the stage. "We're missing Carey, and I haven't seen Fiona or Jack in over three hours, and they..."
"Fi won't answer the phone, and Carey's said he was out of range." Ned walked up behind his wife.
"I left them at the place on the corner!" Irene said defensively. "Honestly Molly, I have no idea."
"FIONA PHILLIPS!" Molly called loudly once Fi walked into the theatre. "Where you have been?"
Ned leaned over and whispered in Molly's ear.
"Where's Carey?"
Molly's daughter was smiling and glowing, something was up, and Molly didin't like the way it made her feel. But Ned was right. "Fi? Have you seen Carey?"
Fi threw her backpack to the floor and shrugged at her mother's question. "Have no idea. I think he left with Maria." Fi strolled over to a chair and sat down, her face starting to glow again. In the last 3 hours Fi had gained two friends, Alex and Max had made her laugh harder then she had ever laughed before.
"Who's Maria?" Molly turned to Irene and ned who shrugged
"Fi," Molly walked over to her daughter and sat down next to her. "Where have you been for three straight hours?"
Max forced a smile as he pushed through the theatre doors. He hadn't even been able to concentrate on the fight Michael had wanted to pick, all he could hear Molly yelling at Fi in his head. "Hey." Maz slid in the seat behind Fi's. "Was it bad?"
Fi went to open her mouth to answer Molly was asking her, but then the presence of Max sitting down next to her, pulled away from Molly, Ned, and even Irene. Fi looked back at Max and smiled. "Not bad yet, but it will be later. But just wait until my brother gets here, he'll get the 'you were supposed to be watching your little sister' speech."
"Oh, that should be entertaining." Max lay back in the theatre chair. "Should I introduce myself, or wait till the notice the stranger talking to Fiona?"
Fi laughed and pulled herself up from the chair she was sitting in. "No, I'll introduce you." Fi reached her hand out to Max.
Max smiled and took Fi's hand. "Ready when you are."
Molly raised an eyebrow as Fi came marching over with a tall dark boy. "Um, Fi?"
Irene shook her head. "Does he know where my children are?" Irene kept hitting her forehead into Ned's shoulder.
"Ned Bell, nice to meet you." Ned stuck his hand out.
Fi smiled shyly. "Everybody this is Max Evans. And no Irene he wouldn't know where Carey and Clu are, neither would I." Fi turned to Max and rolled her eyes, she then smiled. "Max that's Ned, the head roadie; That's Irene, my mom's manager; And this is my mom Molly, the famous singer." Fi smiled again.
"Clu is talking with my friend Liz, and my other friend Maria is driving with Carey. They're waitresses at the crashdown." Max smiled. "I hope I helped."
Irene turned to Molly. "Driving? Where?"
Max shrugged. "Nice to meet the famous Molly Phillips." Max shook her hand.
"Max, nice to meet you. Sorry Fiona, tell me when you see your brother. I need to talk to him." Molly replied.
Max gave Fiona a knowing look and walked away before he broke out into laughter in front of them.
Fi bit down on her bottom lip, to keep the laughter from spilling out of her mouth. "I'm gonna go mom---" Fi said, pulling her jacket back on. "I'm going to go see if I can go find Jack."
Molly looked at Fi, she opened her mouth to say something to her daughter, but closed it when she saw Fi run out of the theatre. "Something is majorly going on with Fiona, I just wish I knew." Molly muttered.
Fi ran down the theatre stairs, reaching up on her tip-toes trying to find Max, she smiled when she saw him leaning up against his jeep. Fi ran over to the jeep, and smirked at Max. "She is SO predictable." Fi said, finally laughing.
Fi stopped walking and turned to the jeep that was parked beside her; A smile creapt upon Fi's lips when she saw that it was Max in the car. "Hey."
