CHAPTER: The News.
" Shhh," she whispered. She looked down at him and into his eyes. He gazed back at her like he wasn't sure what she was doing. She sighed loudly and sat up straight with her back now facing him. She took up a pillow and a sheet, " I think I'll sleep on the couch." She waked away she could feel his eyes on her as she walked.
She put the pillow on the couch and went on it. *What's my problem* she thought. Why did she have this uncontrollable urge to be with him and by the looks of it he didn't feel the same way?
Alec lay on the bed trying to comprehend what happened. He was so sure she something was going to happen. He was sure that they were going to have their moment. Apparently he was wrong. He closed his eyes and breathed in and out. He bolted up when he heard his phone ring. He picked it up quickly. " Yeah," he said.
--- " Alec have you seen Max, she hasn't come home yet."
--- " She's here."
--- " Here, where, at your apartment? Is she alright?"
--- " Yeah she fine."
--- " Let me talk to her for a minute."
--- Alec called Max loud enough for her transgenic ears to hear. She came in the room and sat on the foot of the bed. She took he phone from him. " yeah,"
--- " A hello wouldn't hurt."
--- " Sorry 'bout that. Hello and what's up?"
--- " How come you at Alec's?"
--- " Car trouble," she explained.
--- " So how was the guy?" Cindy asked hardly able to contain her excitement. " Was he totally hot or totally not?"
--- Max turned around and looked at Alec who was watching her talk. She wondered if he could hear OC's part of the conversation. He didn't seem to have any keen interest in her answer. " The former." She whispered.
--- " Ohh girl you got to tell me all about it tomorrow, I have to go the phone is going to cut off any second now." Cindy hung up the phone and ran back inside with an umbrella up.
Max gave ALec the phone and he put it on the table next to the bed. " What did she wanted to know?" he asked.
" She just waned to see if I was okay." She said getting up. She began to walk back to the couch then he stooped her. " Max you sleep here, I'm not tired I want to watch some TV."
" Fine your loss." She said gin back to the bed.
He got up and went to the couch and turned on the TV. He filliped on the TV. He had become so used to watching the news that he automatically turned it to CNN. He read the headlines underneath. It said there was going to be a meteor shower and a lunar eclipse at the same time. It was interesting; he had never seen either of them before.
Alec took up his keys and got ready to go to work. He had to be there for seven. He suddenly remembered his phone. He walked quietly I his room making sure not to wake Max.
Max opened her eyes immediately, she wasn't really asleep, just half there as always. " Hey where you're going?"
He turned around. " To work."
" So early?"
" Overtime remember."
She sat up. " I need clothes," she said. " Can you get some at home for me?"
" Yeah sure, I'll bring it back in an hour or so."
" Thanks," she said laying back down. " And Alec." He turned around. " Don't spend to long in my under wear drawer."
He flashed her a quick smile and ran out the door.
When he arrived there Normal was already organizing packages. He stopped what he was doing when he saw Alec walk in. " Hey, how did it go?"
" Um not very good."
" What?" he said. He was sure it would have worked. " How come."
" I thought something was there but I was wrong."
What he couldn't believe it was his golden boy with this defeatist attitude. " When you fall off the horse you got to get right back on, boy."
" Your missing the point, there is no horse. She doesn't feel anything for me."
" Listen she is completely unworthy of your affections and when she gets here I'm going to tell her that. Yes I'm going to tell her that there are a lot of people who seek it and she'd be really stupid to pass on it."
Alec looked at him and raised an eyebrow. If he knew asking Normal not to tell Max he was the one leaving the packages and asking him to lie a little would make him so interested in his non existent love life with Max then he would have never asked him to. " Don't tell her anything, I can't make her love me. Neither can you, so just accept and move on. I'm doing that so you should to."
Normal sighed. " If you want to that. I don't like her for you anyway."
Alec rolled his eyes and took up some packages and went on his way. He drove to Max's apartment and picked the lock. He didn't see the need in waking Cindy. He walked into Max bedroom and opened a drawer. It contained jeans. He took out a random one. They all looked the same to him. He opened a next drawer that had tops in it. He took out a white one; he's never seen Max in it. He opened her underwear drawer next. He wasn't planning to spend to long in there, but couldn't help but at look at the various cuts and colors of them. He took out a pair of black underwear.
He heard some stirring out side and walked out to see what it was. A baseball bat greeted him. " Hey watch it," he said ducking quickly. He looked up and saw a green-faced woman standing over him. " Cindy is that you under there."
" Boy what are you doing here?" she said looking at him form head to toe. " With Max's underwear in your hand."
" I came to get her clothes," he said defensively. " What did you think I was doing?"
" I don't know, you tell me."
He rose and eyebrow and went back to Max's room and stuffed the clothes in his bag. "Not every guy is out to steal Max's underwear."
" Hey did you see the guy? Do you think Max will see him again?"
" Doubtful. I don't think she really likes him."
" Really," she said. " I think it's just wishful thinking, you're a little jealous."
" That's not possible," he said almost laughing.
" Well Max seems to like him she said he was hot."
He smiled. " Really." Hmm maybe there was some hope.
" Why you suddenly all Guy Smileyish." She said watching his mood totally change.
He walked towards the door. " No reason." He walked out and then walked back in. " Cindy try to put on your face before you get out bed please." He closed the door quickly before she could get to comment on that.
Note: I know this chapter wasn't all that. It's the lack of reviews. I will update soon anyway. Please anybody review the chapters. I need them.
Anyways: Birds of Prey got cancelled. Yes I know? They said it was doing well. But the ratings dropped drastically (maybe it was the acting and the bad story lines.) Well even tough I wasn't a fan my sympathies go out to those who were. I know how it sucks when your favorite show gets cut. (I still feel like boycotting FOX shows)
AT least it leaves the whole cast of Dark Angel free. They should make a Dark Angel movie.
I went on www.gamespot.com and I was some screen shot of the Dark Angel game and the trailer and it looks like a good game. She jumping up buildings and stuff.
You know they make these little movies in the start of the game. Well there was a scene with the pulse. It looked really cool. They also have them as children.
Naturally they didn't get Jessica's face right. They have her forehead looking spacey and her eyes are little too big but the got the lips right. They animated her a little skinny and with no hips what so ever. However she does change clothes, which is an added bonus in the video gaming world. And she has season two hair.
Logan looks more muscular than he is, with a lot a facial hair. In the trailer he came and picked her up in his Aztec at the end of a mission.
Alec isn't in it as far as I can see. They wouldn't have been able to capture his perfection anyway. If they have a second part of the game he might be in it, I guess. Them they could have the gamer choose between playing Alec or Max or they can have double missions as in the new Resident Evil game.
Yes Yes Yes, I know I have an obsession with video games. I don't really play them but I like to look at it as art. A lot of hard work goes into making a good video games and I admire those people who have to sleep at work in order to complete it. Let's hope the DA game is worth the hard work.
