PART 2: CHAPTER: Friday Night.
Crash was filled with people. Max walked trough the crowd looking for Alec. She saw him at their usual spot near the pool table. He had saved a chair for her and she sat opposite him. " Hi," she said with a smile.

" Hey." His hand was on his glass of beer that didn't look touched. " Big crowd huh."

" It is Friday night."

He nodded. He didn't know what they should talk about. She knew that he was love with her so he couldn't do the smart aleck thing. " So is OC and Sketchy coming?"

" OC, maybe." He nodded and began to look around. She could tell that he was bored. " What are we going to talk about?"

" I don't know, what do you want to talk about."

She shrugged her shoulders. " Whatever you want to talk about."

" The thing is I was just want to talk about what you want to talk about and you don't know what you want to talk about so I don't know what I want to talk about."

She laughed. " This is weird."

" I know," he said over the music.

Max took her chair and moved to his side so they wouldn't have to yell. " So how are you doing?"

" I'm okay. How are you doing?"

" I'm good, well kinda."

" What do you mean kinda?"

She looked down at her hands. " You know Logan. How he is." Alec looked at her like he didn't know what she was talking about. " Well we're supposed to have dinner tonight but I told I couldn't because I was meeting you and he was being all . . . rude. He was like ' Well I'll wait till tomorrow, after all I am accustom to waiting.' What's that supposed to mean. "

" I think he meant that he's been waiting for. . ."

Max hit him on his shoulders. " Alec, I know what he meant to say, I just don't like the way he said it. Like he was angry. I think he's jealous."

" Of me?" Alec almost laughed at that. " I have nothing for him to be jealous of."

Max raised an eyebrow and took up Alec's drink and drank from it.

" Hey, that's mine."

She drank more from it. " I know." She looked at him and smiled. " He's jealous because I'm here with you and not with him. I think he would have been in sound mind if I told him I was going to meet OC."

" What? You're not allowed to have male friends now."

She sighed. " Not all my male friends are in love with me."

He laughed. " Point taken but what does he think I'm goanna do? Take you from him?"

" Maybe?"

" Like I could do that."

Max laughed nervously and took another sip of Alec's beer. She saw that Alec was looking at her questioningly. She looked back at him.

" Room for more?" OC asked. They looked up startled at her. " Did I interrupt something?"

" No," Alec said.

OC looked around. No chairs were left. " Man, I have to stand."

" No, I'll get up," Alec said.

" No, you don't have to. Why don't you and Max sit together and I'll take her chair."

She hesitated for while but she got up from where she was sitting and sat on Alec's lap making sure she wasn't sitting on anything sensitive. OC took her seat.

" See, now everyone's seated." Max looked at Alec and he had a strange look on his face. It was hard to tell if he was happy with the seating arrangements or uncomfortable. " So I'm going to get me some beer. I see you two are sharing that glass." OC got up form the seat. " Keep it for me."

" Sure thing," Max said. OC left. " Imagine if Logan came and saw us like this, what do you think he'd do."

" Probably try to decapitate me."

Max laughed. " Look out for the green monster."

" He's just crazy 'bout you, that's why he's acting that way."

" I know but it's annoying."

****

Logan sat at home flipping trough a book. Max was out meeting Alec to do god knows what. He didn't see why she couldn't meet him some other time. They planned to have dinner and that's what he wanted to do. Then again Alec was her friend and she was entitled to meet with him if she wanted. The only thing that had him worried was the fact that Alec had a strange attachment to Max. Not that he had problem with Alec caring about her but he just took it a level that was abnormal for someone who claimed they didn't care about anything.

************************************************************************

Later that night after a few games of pool and a lot of conversation, Max decided she was ready go and it was a domino effect from there on. They were all outside getting ready to go.

" So, I'll see you tomorrow?" Max asked Alec. The night was good considering that she and Alec originally didn't know what to talk about.

" Yeah, tomorrow."

She walked up to him and kissed him on his lips softly. " Good night."

He smiled. " Good night."

Max got on her bike and OC got on after her and soon after they were riding down the street. They reached home shortly afterwards.

" Tonight was fun," Max pointed out.

" Yeah. I could tell you and Alec had fun."

" Yeah." She knew she meant something extra by it. " What do you mean by it."

" No, I just think that you and Alec were looking close." " You're the one who told me to sit on his lap."

" Agreed, but I didn't tell you kiss him before you left."

Max laughed. " Oh please. That was a friend thing."

" Friends don't give their friends long soft kisses on the lips." OC knew she got her there. Max was pushing herself all over the boy.

" Well we do," Max argued.

" I wonder what would Logan say."

" He'd say whatever he wants to say. We meant nothing by it."

" Um Humm. I'd like to see you kiss Alec like that again it front of Logan."

" I will when the opportunity presents itself."

" I'd really like to see that." OC was all for teasing Max but she was tired. " I'm going in my bed."

" Night."

" Night Boo." OC went in her room and closed the door. She knew that Max was putting moves on Alec. She just didn't understand why.
NOTE: You know what to do.
