CHAPTER: She's a keeper.
Dedication: To the people who reviewed the last chapter. Much thanks.
"The end is upon us," Normal said in shock. Max just walked in the door ten minutes early. " Max, what are you doing here at this time?"
" Don't get use to it." Max said watching the black board to see what sector she was running. She also saw that Alec was running the same sector. " So where's Alec."
" He's not in yet."
Alec was a slacker but it wasn't like him to be late for work. The possibilities of what happened the night before raced trough her mind. * What if he was with Amelia and he overslept. It's a possibility after all he doesn't have that shark DNA I have.* she thought. Max didn't know what was going on with her, since when did she care about what Alec did with his spear time. " I'll just wait for him."
Fifteen minutes later Alec came strolling in the door. However instead of Normal addressing him, Max came up to him and was yelling in his face.
" Why the hell are you late?"
" I over slept," he said defensively. " I had a long night." He was talking about the beers he had after he dropped Amelia off. But what Max was thinking was completely different.
" You are such a jerk, why can't you just grow up" Max said and walked out the door picking up her packages.
He stopped her before she got on her bike. " I'm jerk because I over slept."
Max didn't say anything and drove off leaving a cloud of dust behind. OC came out to see what commotion was all about. " What's with her?"
" Why don't you tell me she's your roommate?"
" Boy issues."
" She's still bitching about Logan," he said sighing heavily. He went back inside and took a package and went on his way.
On his way Back to Jam Pony he saw that Max on her way back as well, he drove up and signaled for her to pull over. They moved to the shoulders of the freeway and stopped. " So what's up with you?" he asked.
" Nothing is up with me." She said taping her feet on the ground. " Why do you think something is up with me?"
" Well you've been acting .uh. How can I say this. like a real bitch lately."
" Don't think I won't kick your ass in public."
" I didn't think that." He said looking at her in the eye.
Max looked at him, she was so angry for some reason. But when she looked in his eyes all the anger seemed to melt away, he had the most amazing eyes, and the sunlight made the tinge of green and brown visible and swirled together to produce the most amazing shade of hazel eyes ever. It was such a strange thing looking into his eyes, she welt weak, happy and scared at the same time. She managed to smile. " I don't know what's up with me, I've just been real frustrated lately."
" Well you should take a break, and do something you like."
" How about we go steal something at the museum tonight."
" I can't, I have plans for tonight."
Max knew what he meant by 'plans'. " What about tomorrow, or Sunday."
" I can't then either, but I can on Tuesday."
* Gosh how pathetic, Alec has to squeeze me in his schedule, he doesn't even have time for me anymore.* Max thought. " Maybe it's best I stay home and eat some junk food, I don't really want to get into trouble when I just got out of it anyway."
" Maybe that is the best thing to do." He said smiling, " let's get back to work huh."
Max and Alec got on their motorbikes and rode back to work. Max left Alec chaining the bikes and went inside.
OC came up as soon as she saw her, " you don't want to go in the back there."
" Why?"
" Because You Know Who is here."
" Gosh I hate her."
" She's actually kind of cool. You should hear some of the jokes she tells, you will roll." OC saw the look on Max's face. " Sorry."
" She's so prissy."
" But you don't even know her."
" I know but I have a bad feeling about her."
" Max if you want Alec for yourself you should tell him now, or else it will be too late."
Max looked at OC and rolled her eyes, " you're seriously losing it girl."
Alec came in and Normal walked up to him, " Nice girl you got there. She's the only one worthy of my golden boy, I'm telling you she's a keeper."
Sketchy came out from the back room with Amelia still laughing at her joke, " Alec you're a lucky man."
Alec laughed it off. It was kind of funny how everyone thought he and Amelia were a couple when they were actually just friends. " So what's up?" he asked her.
" I just wanted to see where you worked, you have such a nice boss."
" Try working for him and he wouldn't be so nice."
Normal shouted, " I heard that."
" So what's up with Max," she asked looking at Max leaning against the wall pouting.
" She's frustrated as always."
" So are we still on for tonight." She asked smiling.
" Yeah, I have something cool to show you," he said smiling. " You're not afraid of heights are you?"
" No. why?" she said looking at him and his dangerously eager smile.
" You'll see."
" Ok then. It better not be anything bad, but I have to go now. Tell Max I said hi." Amelia walked out he building.
Alec went to Max who was still leaning against the wall. " Amelia said hi."
" Really," she said sarcastically.
" Never mind." He said and went over to Sketchy who was trying to tell OC a joke.
Max heard what Normal and Sketchy said and it made her stomach turn. As much as she hated to think of it she really didn't want Alec to end up with Amelia or any other girl for that matter. He was supposed to be following her around and she's supposed to not have time for him, not the other way around, He was supposed to be with her.
Note: I think this chapter was kind of Ok. Review please to get the next chapter. I have no Idea what to do for the next one but it will come to me in my sleep. Then I'll have to get up and write it before I lose it.
Tell me how you guys who write stories come up with them.
