CHAPTER: Announcement
Darren was annoying the hell out of Max. He kept on trying to put moves on her. She knew it was only natural since they were technically dating and all but she just wasn't in the mood and he wasn't taking a hint. She really couldn't be bothered with him. Her attention was on Alec, who was chatting up some girl much to her annoyance.
OC looked at Max. She was staring at Alec so hard she was surprised that Darren even tried to get her attention.
" Max," Darren called and waved his hands in front of her. " Earth to Max."
Why the hell couldn't this guy get a clue? She turned to him. " Yeah."
" I was saying that we go back to my place."
She laughed. " I think I need more beer." She got up from her seat and walked to the bar. She sat on the stool. She didn't want a beer she just wanted to get away from Darren. She looked to her left and saw Alec was at the bar now talking to some guy he looked like knew. He was talking to everyone except her. She frowned and turned away from him.
" I thought you came to get beer."
She rolled her eyes before she turned around. " I did. The barkeep is busy."
Darren did not like what Max was doing. She was being secretive and dark again. " What are you keeping from me?"
She looked at him in shock. Where the hell did that come from? " Nothing?"
" Come on Max, I'm not stupid. I see the way you look at that Alex guy."
" Alec, and I don't look at him anyway," she snapped back. The way he was acting she could have sworn they were engaged or something.
" Yeah, I must have the word ass written on my forehead."
She couldn't help but see the word 'ass' glowing in his head. This guy was an ass.
Darren cleared his throat. And began to address the audience in the bar. " People, listen up for second." The music that was playing stopped. Everyone was looking at him.
Max had no idea what he was doing. She just sat there watching him in amazement. He had to be drunk or something.
After Max a girl he was dating cheated on him. It was the first and the last time he was made to look like the fool. " Everyone here know this woman, right?" he pointed at Max.
Max looked around at everyone looking at her, including Alec.
Darren continued. " Everyone also knows that Max and that Guy," he pointed at Alec, " have been dancing around each other." Small mummers of 'yeah that's true' came in from all directions. " Now can anyone tell me why she is pretending to be interested in me and wasting my time?"
Max got up form her stool and put on her jacket. She was too embarrassed and angry to even beat him up. She just wanted to get the hell out of there. She bumped into a few people and reached the exit. She got on her bike and just started to drive.
Alec looked at Max as she walked out the exit. He couldn't believe that Darren just did that. " What the hell is your problem man?"
Darren walked up to him. He was going to make Alec look stupid too. " You're my problem."
He couldn't believe that he was challenging him. " What are you going to about that?"
" Kick you ass."
A guy walked up to Darren. " You don't want to fight this guy." He had seen Alec fight before.
" I can take him," Darren told his informant.
Alec almost laughed at that.
" Guys can you take it outside," the bartender pleaded.
" Don't worry, it will be over soon enough," Darren assured him. Darren rolled up his sleeves and fired a punch at Alec.
Alec took his hold of his hands. " Give up now."
" Afraid I'll kick ass."
What this guy high. He was in no position to be making threats. Alec just wanted get him over with quickly. He broke his hand and let him collapsed to the floor.
Darren looked at him in shock. " You bastard. You broke my arm."
" I know." Alec laughed at him and took his jacket and walked out the bar. He was going to find Max.
**********
Max couldn't believe she was crying over it. Her life was a mess and I was all her fault. If she didn't go to Alec's that night then she would have never had to use Darren hence she would not have been embarrassed. She wiped her tears away in frustration.
She was wrong. She got what she deserved. Why couldn't she just get over herself and tell Alec how she felt about him. She wanted to be with him so much and the fact that he didn't want to be with her was eating her slowly. Then again it was her fault. She was the one who was constantly mean to him. She was the one who never gave him the time of day because she was too caught up with Logan.
Alec walked up to her slowly. She could tell that she was miles away because she didn't turn around at the sound of his footsteps (not that he made a sound). He knew she could have been at the needle because that was where she always went when she wanted to clear her head.
He stopped at the back of her and put his hands over her eyes. " Guess who?" He could feel that she was crying.
She pulled his hands down. She didn't hear him coming but when she knew it had to be him. "Alec, I had no idea it was you."
He smiled because she remembered what she had to say. " Tell me what you're thinking."
