Chapter 24......... The end of the beginning.
A/N-Once again, sorry it took so long. This story is coming to an end. If Asked how ever, I will write another chapter, an Epilogue type of thing. It will take place 15 years in the future, From Morgaine's point of view. I haven't decided. Just tell me what you want and I'll do it. And also keep an eye open for my next story, which will be Max/Alec, but will also focus on a few new characters. It will Be called Vivir.
A/N/N, this one actually takes place a few weeks after the last one.
~It's leaving time again I'm headed out With all my friends It's a roll of the dice I've never thought twice About the way I've been spending my time Trying my guts out For every dime Working in an Office building tall You don't know Who's next to you at all But being out here The blood, the guts, the beer Is a test Only time will tell It brings you close, man Closer than hell ~
Alec walked in from the icy cold rain, with a few soaked envelopes in his hand. The days mail. He set it down on the counter. He took off his wet coat, and shook the water out or his hair. Max Had the baby in her arms, and was humming gently, "Hey stranger" she said, giving him a half smile.
He smiled right back and walked over to her, putting a hand on the side of her neck stroking it gently, then leaning down. kissing her sweetly with an open mouth. He then leaned down and kissed his child on the top of her head. "Did you miss me?" he asked.
"Nope" Max responded quickly. She walked over and put Morgaine in her Cradle. He pulled her towards him, and placed a hand on her back, and held her other hand in his, up at their sides in a dancing position. "Maybe a little she said, leaning her head against her chair.
"Want me to sing to you again?" He asked. Max thought back to that night, which now seemed so long ago. Like a different life. She sighed as an answer. She expected the same song he had sang that once, but it wasn't anything even like it. Is nice deep voice jumped into a peppy tune "Do you remember when we used to sing, Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da Hey where did we go, Days when the rains came Down in the hollow, Playin' a new game, Laughing and a running hey, hey Skipping and a jumping In the misty morning fog with Our hearts a thumpin' and you My brown eyed girl,You my brown eyed girl." he stopped singing and returned his lips to hers, where they both felt they belonged.
Ben walked into the room, then turned and walked right back to his room when he found Max's lips firmly locked to Alec's. He loved Max, And he was growing to like the brother he had never known. And he was glad that they seemed to love each other. He just didn't want to look at them.
"Ben" he heard Max call after him. He turned around again and walked back to the living room. There's a letter for us, it looks like it's from Zack" she said. Ben watched her open the letter, and take out the paper. She shook her head. "Figures, leaves us out of no where, the first thing he sends us doesn't even take up half of a page" she passed the letter to Ben, and he read it to himself. Dear Max, Ben, and Alec, I hope you are all doing well. I'm going to try and make by way back there sometime next month to check up on you. I've enclosed a address where you can write me if necessary. And a number to call, ONLY IN EMERGENCY!!!!!!!!! I look forward to seeing my family soon again. ~Z
Ben passed The letter pack to Max. "That was brief. But then again it is Zack, so I guess that was pretty long for him" he said.
Max smiled. So did Alec. "Yup, that's Zack for you" she said. She put an arm around Ben, "I hope you never have the need to be brief" she kissed his cheek gently. "Now, my boys, what do we want for dinner. I'm feeling in the mood for Chicken" she said.
Ben nodded his approvement of the idea. "Chicken sounds good to me" Alec said.
Max smiled, "Then you wont mind making it. Everything you need is in the refrigerator. I'm going to go take a nice warm bath" she then kissed Alec on the mouth quickly, and disappeared into the bathroom.
"That is so completely typical of a woman" Alec said shaking his head at Max. Ben smiled, though he didn't quite get the joke. Alec seemed to pick up on this fact. "You, have got a lot to learn my brother" he said.
Ben nodded his head, as if in agreement. "I think we better cook dinner before Max comes out of the bath" he suggested.
"I think you're right" Alec said. "Lets go" he went in to the kitchen.
Ben looked over at the baby for a moment, reveling at the fact that she could look like him, when Alec was the father. He then went into the Kitchen to help his brother prepare dinner. It felt good to have a family. For the first time in his life, he felt truly, and completely happy.
The End
We're leaving, we're leaving again
Can't recall where all we've been
Guess we'll just go
Go till we're too old
Or we run out of road
