CHAPTER THREE:
Crash, Seattle; July 19th 2022
"Alec! Long time no see man!",
Sketchy raised his hand in greeting as a familiar face entered the bar.
"Err...hey dude. What's uh...what's been happening?"
"With me? Would you believe that I got a girlfriend now! And thank god, it is about time! She just started at Jampony."
"Cool..."
"Alec man, I thought you'd be way happier about this for me, you know what my love life's like, especially when you're around."
"I am happy for you. So, what's she like."
"Amazing. I'm a changed man; no longer even check out other girls. She's just the cutest thing and so I dunno, virtuous. (chuckle) Her dad doesn't like me too much, he's a teacher at Sunday School."
Sketchy watched as his friend grinned and he winced as he was clapped roughly on the back,
"I heard that you and Max had eloped or something. I knew underneath all that fighting, you guys were hot for one another."
"Yeah, something like that. Say man, you want to get out of here, go somewhere to catch up on old times? I heard there's this rave out in the forest. You in?"
"Music to my ears! Melinda has work tonight at her other job, so I could definitely kill a few hours."
"Great. Let's get out of here, I'll drive."
* * * * *
Chicago; August 25th 2022
"Ready to go home?"
"Yeah! I can't wait to see Sketchy and Cindy!"
"Me either. I was gonna call her to give them a heads up we're on our way, but I figured she'll chew my ear out for not talking to her in like a month or more. If she sees me in person, I doubt she will. I hope. Now, everything is organised, so let's get going."
Alec turned to her radiatingly happy girlfriend, kissing her sweetly on the cheek,
"Oh fun Maxie, getting to sit on the back of your bike for how many hours..."
"Don't complain or I might drive slower. If you're a good boy, I might make it worth your while."
His eyebrows rose and he immediately placed his hands firmly on her hips, ushering her out of the house that they would no longer call home.

Flashback:
"So, you got any deep thought you want to share? And uh, profound realisations about life?"
Alec hunched overs his knees further, his green eyes surveying the vast view offered by the Space Needle. It seemed like the city seemed to stop when he was there. Max mirrored his position, her mouth set into a firm pout,
"Yeah, love sucks."
* * * * *
Alec turned to peer at Max, whose back was facing him, as she rummaged through a box, unpacking the last of their belongings that the delivery van had dropped off,
"So Maxie...love sucks?"
She whirled around, looking at him suspiciously,
"What?"
"It's what you told me once. On top of the Space Needle. You told me, love sucks."
"Joshua's words. And I didn't mean that about us. I meant...hey! Baby! You just remembered that?
"Baby, I like that. It's nice and sweet. Very different to usual."
* * * * *
Flashback:
"Ladies and gentlemen, in this corner, hailing from parts unknown, let's hear it for the
Curvaceous Killer! All right, here are the rules. Well, there ain't no rules. Hitting below the belt's allowed...eye gouging's allowed."
While the boxing ring announcer talked, Alec warned Max as the two circled one another,
"Max, you don't want to fight me."
"Are you kidding? I've been waiting for this chance for months."
"Yeah, well, see, you're just a girl, and so--"
Max punched him and Normal yelled loudly,
"Hey! She jumped the bell! What are you doing? She jumped the bell!"
The announcer quickly left the ring and started shouting at the ring girl,
"Ring the bell! Will you ring the bell?"
She rang it and Alec attempted to make Max feel bad,
"Should've known you'd cheat."
Max kicked Alec in the leg,
"That's for the virus."
"That was not my fault!"
She punched him,
"That's for trying to kill Joshua."
"I was just trying to protect my own... "
She punched him twice,
"And that's for getting paint all over my research papers."
"Okay, yeah, that was my bad."
Max punched Alec again,
"That's for making Joshua deliver your packages."
"Max, cut it out!"
She kicked and punched him,
"That's for losing my baseball. And this...(Kicks Alec in the stomach)...is for whatever stupid thing you do next."
The crowd couldn't believe their eyes, particularly Normal, who shouted out his support,
"Kick her ass!"
Alec is convinced,
"Okay. That's it."
Max went to kick Alec again, but he grabbed her leg, punched her, and shoved her to the ground. Before she could get up, he kicked her. She landed near the edge of the ring. She stood and Alec smiled,
"My turn now, bitch."
"What'd you just call me?"
"(chuckle) You heard me. B-I-T-C..."
"Oh, look at that. Ring girl just lost her top."
"Yeah."
His sarcastic answer showed he didn't believe her, but despite that, Alec couldn't help glancing at the ring girl. She smiled at him, top and all. Max took the opportunity to kick him in the groin.
* * * * *
"Alec?"
He shifted his gaze to her and smiled, unconsciously rubbing at his groin at the vivid memory that just returned,
"Sorry what? Oh yeah, I did just remember. One of the last pieces of the puzzle. My memory is almost back to basics."
"I'm so proud of you sweetie!"
"Don't be proud, just be happy."
Max circled him, her hands grazing his muscular torso and Alec forgot the recollection of her kicking his ass,
"So you remember everything?"
"Basically."
She stood in front of him, her fingers teasingly unbuttoning his shirt,
"So...how do you feel about us?"
Alec swallowed as his top was slid off his shoulders onto the floor. Max leaned on her tiptoes and pressed herself against his lips. His arms captured her and the two found themselves in a kissing battle of desire, desperately clawing at one another, as they fell onto the bed in a tangle of limbs.
