CHAPTER: Taking it further.
Alec walked in his apartment. He didn't intend on not seeing Max but it just turned out that way, he actually did have some business to take care of this time. He went to his bedroom and took off his coat and lied down on his bed. He just lay there staring at the sealing.

" Hey," a voice whispered.

He sat up quickly and looked around the room. " God, you scared me."

She smiled lightly. " Sorry." She looked at him as he was there, sitting up on the bed. He couldn't avoid her now. He kept looking back at her with an expression that was difficult to read. She walked up to him and stopped.

" Alec, did I do something wrong?"

" No, not at all."

She passed her hand nervously through her hair and she sat next to him. She opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out.

" Max, are you okay."

She shook her head. " No, I'm not okay. You've been avoiding me and want to know what it is I did." Alec bit his bottom lip. " I'm sorry for whatever it is."

Alec moved closer to her and wrapped his arms around her. " Max, you did do anything wrong."

She looked in her eyes and saw that it was the truth. It was nothing as she had thought. She moved her lips closer to his and kissed his softly.

He could feel all that she was going through when she kissed him. He didn't think that she would care so much. He took her hand in his. " We have to talk."

She was just so happy that she could be with him again. She realized it was becoming increasingly difficult to stay away from him. " Okay, if that's what you want to do." She lied down backwards and took him down with her. " What is it?"

He knew that he would have to tell her sooner or later. " Logan knows how I feel about you."

" What do you mean?"

" Max, he knows that I'm in love with you."

That did create some sort of a problem. " It doesn't matter, he doesn't know how I feel about you."

He looked at her and raised an eyebrow.

She decided to explain herself. " I'm in love with you."

" I know, just not like that."

" No, like everything. Like you are everything to me. I felt like was going mad with out you. I was so scared that I had lost you."

He moved closer to her. " It's okay, I'm not going anywhere."

She felt a tear trickle down her face. " What did I get myself into?" She had no idea what to do. She was in love with Alec but what about Logan. " I think Logan is going to hate me."

He kissed her on her forehead and whispered in her ear: " Logan doesn't have to know."

" You're right, he doesn't have to know how I feel."

Something was still bugging him. He knew that Max was in love with him but he still didn't know what she was going to do about it. " How do you feel about him?"

She really didn't know how to answer that question. " I don't know anymore. I know I shouldn't love two people at once but I can't rule out the possibility."

Why did everything have to be so difficult for him. " What are we going to do about this?"

" What ever happens, happens."

She looked down at him and smiled. He smiled back at her and she reached down and kissed him again.

" Are we going further?" She asked.

He sighed and looked away from her for a while. He knew he was being weak. " This is out of my hands, whatever you're doing I'm doing."

This was the point where she had to decide if she'd cross the line. She rested her hand on his chest and she could fell his heart beating rapidly. She sighed. She knew what she was doing was wrong but she couldn't help herself because it felt so right. She moved her hand his belt buckle. " We're going to take this further?"

" Are you sure?"

" I need you, that's all that I'm sure about."

He reached up to her and kissed her. She relaxed in his arms.

NOTE: Okay this is PG. I have to stop here. Didn't I promise some Max and Alec stuff? Their relationship may not make sense to you, that's okay. It doesn't even make sense to me. But that's life for yah, not everything makes sense.
