Title: Discovering Her Destiny : Final Destination
Disclaimer: If I owned Alec, do you think that I'd give him to Max?
Summary: Part 3 of the "Discovering Her Destiny" Trilogy. It's four years after "Tempting the Fates", and Max and Alec are still crazy about eachother. But somebody is determined to shatter their happiness...
Pairings: Max and Alec. If any two people were destined/designed to be together, it would be them.
Setting: 2027
Spoilers: Anything and Everything from both the show's seasons can pop up somewhere.
A/N: It's not necessary to read Parts 1 and 2, but for the sake of continuity - I'd recommend it.
Chapter 2: Supermom
_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*-*-_-*- *-_-*-*-_
It was Sunday morning at breakfast, and Max was busy attempting omelettes. Gabi was sitting at the table, babbling animatedly about what they'd done while Max and Alec were away.
"And Aunty Cindy told me, that if I didn't shut up, then she'd beat on my ass."
"Gabrielle Alexis Brady, watch your language!"
Max shook her head at her daughter. She and Alec hadn't mentioned anything to them about their transgenic heritage. Gabi and Danny hadn't noticed that they were any different to normal kids yet, and they were too young to be burdened with the knowledge. The girls were both extremely intelligent and picked up words quickly. Some words that they picked up weren't appropriate for three-year olds, though.
"But Aunty Cindy said it!" protested Danny, who had come to her sister's defence.
"Aunty Cindy is an adult. She can say a lot of things that you two can't."
"Daddy doesn't mind."
Max rolled her eyes.
"Daddy's an idiot."
"Hey!" Alec looked up indignantly from the cartoons he was watching. Gabi was deeply upset by her mother's statement.
"Daddy's not a idiot! He's the best Daddy in the whole wide world." She joined him on the couch and gave him a hug. He ruffled her dark hair.
"Aww. Thanks, Sweetie. You know what?"
"What?" she asked in anticipation.
"I think I'll go get you a chocolate ice-cream."
"And me!" piped up Danny, also giving him a hug. Max put her hands on her hips in frustration.
"Oh no you don't! I'm making breakfast. There will be no chocolate ice- cream before your omelettes, understood?"
"Aw, come on Mom!" said the twins.
"Aw, come on Max!" said Alec - and the glare she shot him could kill.
"You're spoiling them!"
"A little chocolatey-goodness won't kill them."
"No, but I might! And you right along with them!"
Alec got up and gave her a hug and a peck on the cheek. After loving her for as long as he had, he'd learnt that under the Take-no-Nonsence exterior lay nothing but a big fluffy marshmellow.
"Look, I'll get you a present too, OK?"
"It better be good." she grumbled. She had no idea how he could turn the tables on her with only his charm.
"It will be." He purred into her ear. Max actually blushed. This was obviously a new habit that she'd picked up after returning from the second honeymoon. She seemed almost shy to be intimate and be a mother at the same time. Gabi and Danny giggled at the comical sight of their apron-clad mother who was yelling at them the one minute and blushing rosily the next. Max looked at them cynically over Alec's shoulder.
"What are you two laughing at?"
"Nothing!" They answered in unison. Alec took the oppurtunity to re- attempt to escape Max's cooking.
"Let me go get that ice-cream..."He said as he walked towards the door.
"Hold on, Mister Brady."
He turned around sheepishly.
"No dessert until every one of you have finished your breakfast." She pointed towards the table.
"Sit!"
"Yes, Ma'am!" All three answered her with a mock salute. They all knew who wore the pants in the family.
