Ch 4: Echoes of Sanity
Alec listened to the echo of footsteps as they walked across the steel structure, stopping behind him. He wasn't in a hurry to turn around, not many people came up here. Most were too afraid of its height to enjoy the beauty and freedom the high structure offered. But then again, it was part of his cat DNA that loved it up here. Cats didn't fear heights.
From here you could view the lighted city as if you were away from it all. Floating in space, looking down on it. Nothing down there could affect you except the feelings and thoughts you brought up with you.
Reluctantly he turned around and came face to face with the perpetrator trespassing on his solitude..Max. She had invaded his privacy. His eyebrows dropped low on his forehead and he squinted his eyes.
"Oh, it's you." he said with a hint of disgust in his voice, and sat back down. He was trying to project the feeling that he hated her, but it was near impossible because he couldn't deny his feelings deep down.
"Well I WAS coming here to apologize to you, but now I won't. Geez, you really do need Midol! Maybe you can get your invisible friend to go buy it for you!" she exclaimed and stormed off.
Alec listened to her the sound of her feet as the stomped down the stairs. He sat alone, knowing he should have let her speak, but anger had stopped him from doing so. He wanted to run after her and shout her name, beg her to come back so he could hold her in his arms, and whisper his love for her in her ears, but Max never wanted to be any where within ten feet of him. Maybe that was the reason he cared so much about what she thought and said about him. It was the reason why her taunting affected him, but he never let it show until now. He didn't know how to deal with his emotions; he hadn't lived in the world as long as Max, so he allowed his pride to get in the way and prevent him from confessing.
Within a matter of minutes he heard footsteps coming back up the stairs. Had she come back? If so he would have to admit his feelings to her, even if she didn't accept them. He couldn't stand to keep the secret any longer; it was destroying him. He waited for what seemed like an eternity as the footsteps slowed and came to a stop behind him. "Max?" he questioned with hope in his voice, not turning around. He couldn't bear to look at her, for his eyes would betray him and give away the secret before he could.
"Try again, dear brother." A familiar voice jeered.
