EPISODE 1: ANNOYING

Asha was edgy; Logan had been out of town for four days. Asha learnt from Alec of all people of Logan's Australian adventure, alongside Max and apparently Max had important 'family issues that had to be resolved. At least that was the story Logan had fed Asha through the informant net.

Asha knew better. Logan had more important issues to deal with and Max more than likely didn't even tell Logan she was going to Australia and Logan followed as he always does. Max is the master and Logan is just her dog.

The mourning in front of the television seemed the best of options in the state Asha was in. All she wanted to do was mop around so moping out in front of the television seemed the best of solutions. The only other thing Asha thought suited was an S11 situation, she could really use the opportunity to belt someone up.

"So, I thought to myself, what does a girl who's main squeeze is out of town with the girl of his dreams do on an Wednesday mourning. I would think she goes to a job but of course she is S11 and she only goes out of the house when she is in need to battle or whatever." Alec had subtly barged into her apartment and sat down on the coffee table in exact line of vision with the television in front of Asha. Asha was not amused.

"So you thought you'd come around, arrogant and snide and sit in front of my television so I get annoyed!" Asha enjoyed toying with Alec, it meant getting Alec really revved up and that always made her day. She was a blonde after all.

"Well, have I succeeded?" Alec had that gorgeous smile on his face that most girls would melt seeing. Only those who actually had to deal with him knew it was just his arrogance shining through.

"Oh please, can you just get to the reason your here, get on with it then get gone. I was quite comfortable in the position I was in." Alec saw the opportunity. He sat back on the chair opposite and opened the bag he had come with. He pulled out a beer and chips and put his feet up on the table.

"So, I thought I'd go and see this girl, offer her a beer cause I can't be stuffed going to work. Plus I know your all bent out of shape with Logan and Max in Oz." Alec looked so comfortable in the chair he was sitting in and Asha really wanted to just throw water in his face. She didn't want to talk about Logan and Max.

"Alec, I'm not bent out of shape and even if I was, why would I console to you anyway. You are the most insensitive person I know and I don't care one little bit about Max or Logan. So would you please just go." Asha stood up and went to the still open door.

"Asha, I don't wanna talk about it. I don't want to hear about your frustration over Logan, I mean you know you have no hope. He loves Max and you know that so what's the use in me being Mr Wimp?" Asha still wanted Alec gone.

"I'm not in the mood to deal with any of your charades." Alec looked up and directly at Asha. "All I want to do is sit here in front of the television alone, like always." She moved over and sat where she had been on the couch in front of the television.

"Okay, that's all I want to do." Alec started to skull a little of his beer and then stopped, put the bottle on the coffee table and offered Asha a beer. "Want a chip?" Asha took some chips and cuddled up to the pillow she had on her couch.
