Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Dark Angel characters. Iris is mine. Thanks for the reviews. Hey all, I really appreciate all of you who are reading my story but leave a review. That way I'll know if you like it, or if you don't. Like I said before, I'm lacking inspiration. So review, gimme a few suggestions, tips anything that I can use in my story. Or else it'll just wither and die, I kinda like writing these things so I really don't wanna stop, but hey what can a girl do if she's suffering from writers block? So please leave me a review, its not like that takes an hour out of your busy schedule. Right now I demand 3 review with at least one idea for my story, I don't care if the idea is lame, I'm just trying to figure out if we're on the same page here. So help me out, gimme a break and review! Thanks! :P

JAM PONY: NEXT MORNING

Zack and OC were at the lockers talking, mainly about Max and Alec. This whole situation was kinda weird, in a good was of course. The idea of them together was just weird cos they really weren't like that. But seeing them now, it actually makes sense, they look pretty good together.

Alec approached them, he looked pretty happy, was in a very good mood, had a smile on his face and everything.

"Hey guys!"

"Hey Alec. Had a good night?" Zack asked

"Yeah, actually I did!"

"Boy stop being so cheerful and loud! It's ten in the morning!" said OC

"Sorry! Can't help it, I'm having a good day, so any of you seen Max?" he asked, his eyes started to twinkle.

"Yeah, she went to the bathroom, she'll be right out." Zack replied and as he was saying that Max came out.

"Hey Max." Alec approached her, he leaned in so he could give her a kiss but to his surprise she pulled back just a little. "Everything okay?" this was strange, they were getting along fine yesterday, they were kissing which was nice.

"Yeah, everything's okay, it's just. this is kinda weird, you know, us. We still haven't talked, not really."

"You think we should?" 'why? We're getting along fine, why not leave it this way, this way's good'

"Yeah, we need to figure out if we really want to do this, cos if we do it'll change everything."

'she has a good point, well if we're together she won't kick my ass anymore, on the other had it wouldn't be appropriate to crack jokes about her behind her back, on the other hand I could kiss her in public instead of just thinking about it.'

"Alec? Are you still with me?"

"Huh? Oh yeah, if you really wanna do this then I'm game."

"You're game?" she looked at him while frowning

"Well you know what I mean, besides you know I'm not good with expressing my feelings."

"Guess I could've seen that one coming, right?!"

"So, are we gonna do this? It's up to you, you know I want too." 'saying I love you is just bad timing, right? It's too soon.'

"Yeah, I'm willing to give this, us, a shot. But I wanna start slow, I wanna do this right."

"Of course, we'll go as slow as you want. We can kiss right?! Cos if you wanna start by holding hands."

"Yeah, no, we can kiss, we don't have to go that slow!" she took a step forward, standing closer to him than before. They kissed "I'm good with kissing."

"Yeah, so I noticed." He smiled while holding on to her. He liked holding on to someone, to feel like he actually belonged there, like someone wanted him there. The feeling was mutual, and he knew that, she was holding on to him too.

"Come on people! Packages don't grow feet and deliver them self! Bip, bip, bip!" Normal had to come in and ruin the moment.

Zack walked over to Max and Alec.

"Hey, don't mean to break up this pretty picture, but we have work to do Max."

"Oh right, I'll go get my bag, you grab some packages and I'll be right there."

"Hey maybe I'll ride with you guys."

"Oh no! I don't think so mister! You'll work sector 6 and they'll work sector 8, I don't want you two lovebirds distracting each other! And since when are you two a couple anyway? I'm not liking this! Now go! Bip!" Normal shouted

"Fine, we'll hook up for lunch?" Alec looked over at Max

She smiled "Sure! Crash, noon?"

"See you at lunch!" he smiled back just before he took of on his bike

"Can we go now?" Zack was getting impatient and started to scratch his head and face.

"Don't do that! Yes we can go, just don't scratch that part of your head, your skin might come of again!" Max looked a bit concerned, she didn't want her brother to loose half his face and go all postal again.

"Sorry!" he replied when he noticed what he was doing.

A couple of minutes later they were biking to the entrance of sector 6. They had to wait in line. They wanted to get in while other people wanted to get out of sector 6.

A guy came into the gate and walked past Max and Zack.

"Hey, Zack!"

"Huh? Hey Jess! Is that you? What are you doing here?" they shook hands

"A friend called me up, needs my help, my expertise with something. What are you doing here?" Jess asked

"Visiting my baby sister, Max this is Jess, he's one of us." Max and Jess shook hands

"So this is your sister huh? She's cute."

"And also taken!" Max replied, yeah, she belonged with someone, she belonged with Alec.

"To bad, we could've been good together." Jess said, joking around.

"Yeah right, she would've kicked you ass!" Zack replied, praising his sister

"Hey, I gotta go right now, but maybe we could get a drink or something later."

"Yeah, sure, we hang out at a bar called Crash, meet us there at 7 tonight."

"Okay! See you there!" Jess shouted while waving goodbye for now.

"Huh, I wonder who he's meeting with."

Max and Zack finally got into sector 6 to deliver their packages.

IRIS'S PLACE

Knocking at the door, Vic walked to the door to open it. Jess was on the other side of it.

"Jess! You came!"

"Yeah, I said I would, so here I am." They shook hands.

"It's good to see you, sorry I haven't been by lately."

"That's okay, so where is she?" Jess asked

"In here room, she's even further gone than before."

Jess walked into Iris's room to see her sitting on her bed, starring at the wall. He looked at it to see what she was starring at. Ben, everywhere! She was surrounded by him.

"Hey Iris." He said softly

She looked around to see who said that "Jess. hi, what are you doing here?" she spoke softly as well.

"I came to see you, I missed you."

"I've missed you too, hey, guess what, I found him. Ben, it's really him this time."

"Are you sure, last time, that guy, he was close but it wasn't him, you . you killed him." He replied

"And I almost killed you too" she turned away from him "I'm sorry about that, it's good that Vic was there to stop me. Don't worry, it won't happen again, I promise."

"Good"

"So, you'll help me then?"

"Yeah, sure. Anything to make you happy, sweety."

"Don't do that, don't call me sweety. Vic called you didn't he?"

"He's worried about you, he just want's to make sure you're okay"

"He had no right, it's my life, I can do what I want. So did he call you cause he knows you can keep me from killing people who look like Ben?"

"You'd have to ask him."

CRASH: NOON

Alec was sitting at a table waiting for Max. He was tapping his fingers on a cup of coffee. A door opened, he looked up to see if it was Max, it was Logan. 'What's he doing here?'

Logan spotted Alec and started to walk in his direction.

"Great, just what I need, hey Logan."

"Hey Alec, what are you doing here in the middle of the day?"

"I could ask you that same question, shouldn't you be behind your computer fighting the good fight?"

"Funny, have you seen Max?"

"No, not yet, I'm waiting for her too."

Max and Zack just entered the place and saw Logan sitting with Alec.

"Oh great, Logan's here."

"Yeah, now would be a good time to tell him about you and Alec being a couple now." Said Zack

"Yea, it would."
