Hi everyone. This is our first attempt at a Da fan fic, Tzamz has written
before, but that was a Harry Potter one and it turned out shit. Anyway,
hopefully this one is better, it's just sort of like an experiment or
something, we want to write it, but we done want to bother if no one is
going to like it and no one is going to read it. So read it and review and
please tell us what you think ;)
STORY: Dark Angel.
PAIRING: Max/Alec.
SUMMARY: Set a few months after Freak Nation, Logan knows that Max and Alec arn't together and he is more determined than ever to get Max with him, and finding a cure for the virus. Meanwhile, Max and Alec take a cruise... hehehe.
RATING: R for now, for mostly language, but it will involve more, umm how shall I say it, intimate moments between our two hero's in due time.
DISCLAIMER: We do not own Dark Angel, cuz if we did; I highly doubt it would have been axed.
Ok by the way, we don't have a beta, so there is probably a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes. Sorry about that, as soon as we get one, hopefully that will be fixed, but first we gotta find one. Any takers?
CHAPTER 1
Beep. Beep.
"It's Logan."
"Again?'
"Yeah."
"That's the 6th time in 20 minutes Max! Just hit the guy back will you, it must be important!"
"Fine!"
XXXXXXXXXX
"How important is this that you couldn't tell us over the phone, Logan?"
They were back at Logan's 'new' fancy apartment, usual positions, Max and Alec on the sofa, sitting behind the work absorbed Logan, who was sitting in front of the love of his life.
His computer.
"Got a lead on this guy I've been looking to bust for ages, his identity is unknown, no one's ever seen him, you know, just like that mob boss we busted a while ago," he added to Max, "anyway, he sells faulty appliances, major crook, getting him will lead to getting a gang of other guys I'm looking to bust, but that's another story. 'Vlyte appliances' is the name of the company and he is also using the money he is making with this to run a whorehouse."
At the sound of that last word Alec's eyes widened and a cheeky grin split his features, "whorehouse?" he caught Max's eye and smirked.
"So why the hell should we care about this 'Vlyte' guy?" Max interrupted Alec before he got any ideas.
"Like I said before, no one knows this guys true identity His name is Steve, Steve Cedric, and now that I've got a lead and a chance to expose him I'm not going to let it pass."
"And where do we come into it?" Max asked hesitantly, almost afraid at what was coming.
XXXXXXXXXX
"So we aren't going to be here all next week," Max was explaining to Kelly, another transgenic, second female in command, who Max had become very close friends with, "Logan wants us to nail this guy Steve Cedric, steal all his files, the loser keeps records of all his dirty business, it's like he's asking for some one to come and nail him."
"So you guys are going to be on a cruise all week? Lucky! Alec is telling Seth now is he? I'm sure me and Seth can take care of everything here, you just enjoy yourself," Kelly smiled at Max.
"Trust me Kel, it wont be fun, not with Alec annoying the hell out of me all week," Max paused and sighed, "Logan did want to be the one to go with me, but I ain't going to risk it, not after all those other times."
"So things aren't getting any better with Logan?" Kelly asked, pushing a long blonde lock of hair out of her eyes, a gentle and reassuring smile on her face, "don't worry, I'm sure things will start looking up soon," she gave Max a friendly hug, pulled back and asked, "So what is it that you want us to do while you are away?"
"Well, Alec's got that under control, and I'm sure he's telling Seth right about now, but basically just getting us our supplies , and making sure everything runs smoothly," she paused and then added as an after thought, "I think Dix said something about getting us some water and electronic supplies, ask Seth about that, you might have to look into it."
"No problem Max, you should go pack then. Do you need any help?" Kelly asked sweetly.
"Oh, no, it's OK, thanks."
"So Seth will be dropping you off at the port tomorrow?"
"Yes he will."
"OK then, seems like everything is under control, you have a good week, and I'll see you when you get back, bye Max," she smiled and walked off.
XXXXXXXXXX
"OK Alec, I got all that, your going to be gone for a week tomorrow, me and Kel will be in command while you and Max are gone. Supplies will be picked up on Tuesday, Electricity will be Dix's job and that's happening on Wednesday, and on Friday the guys are going to somehow get a water supply into the city and I'm dropping you off at the port tomorrow. Beautiful, no problem," here he smirked, rubbed his hands together and asked what he really wanted to know.
"So tell me about this cruise."
"Well, Logan wants us to steal some files off this bozo loser he's looking to nail, two minute job basically, the rest of the time, I'm thinking, well, you know," he winked while the other man looked at him enviously," picking up some fine honeys and having a very good time."
Seth didn't like Logan, then again none of the transgenic's in TC liked him apart from Max, and that's the only reason they all put up with his shit, and he didn't like the idea of Max and Alec always having to go on these stupid dangerous missions for him when they had more important responsibilities here they needed to attend to. But he also knew that those two could never actually say 'no' to Logan; Max, for obvious reasons and Alec, well because he was a friend to Max and he couldn't say 'no' to her. Anyway, he knew Alec had a 'thing' for Max even though he wouldn't admit it, not even to himself, so here he had to smirk; Alec was going to die on a ship with Max, alone for a whole week. Well not really alone, but the only person he knew, but, disappointingly, he was going to use other chicks to get his mind off her, just like typical Alec always did. But he couldn't resist the urge he had now to stir his pal up a bit.
"Woah man," he said enthusiastically, " your going to be ALONE with Max the whole week, just the two of you, and your going to be picking up other chicks? Are you crazy? You could make your move on her here!"
Alec looked pissed.
"How many times do I have to tell you, I DON'T like Max, I DON'T want Max, I never did, it's never going to happen!"
"Not unless you don't MAKE it happen," Seth persisted crossly.
"Listen," Alec said, getting sick of Seth's little games, "Don't go there pal-"
"Fine, Fine!" Seth backed away, hands up in mock surrender, "relax man!"
"Good," Alec replied, walking away.
Seth shook his head knowingly to himself as Alec walked away.
XXXXXXXXXX
(Morning)
"Alec! Alec you moron! Wake up! Get the hell outta bed Alec!"
This was the lovely greeting Alec awoke to the next morning. Groggy from just getting up and having a splitting headache from Max's piercing shouts, due to his highly sensitive hearing.
"Hurry up! We are going to be late! Where's your stuff Alec? We have to load it in the car." She looked panicked.
"Pack?" Alec sat up, rubbing his eyes, clad only in a pair of green silk boxers.
Max saw the look on Alec's face, it was distinctly his oops-I-did-something- that-you-wont-like-please-don't-yell-at-me-Max look, and she distinctly heard him mutter to him self the words 'uh-oh'.
A shot of anger so hot and steamy ran through her that she couldn't contain herself from yelling, what did it matter anyway?
"ALEC!" he had the distinct impression that all of TC would have definitely awoken to the sound of Max's extremely angry yell, "do you have any idea how late we are going to be? I cannot believe you didn't pack!"
She leapt up from her position on the bed and frantically started pulling out Alec's drawers, grabbing handfuls of clothes from left, right and center, "get me your suitcase Alec, quick!" Alec obediently obliged and handed her his suitcase to which she stuffed in all the clothes that she caught sight of.
Nearing the end of the 'packing session' when Max had reached a drawer, which evidently was his boxer drawer, she let out a little giggle and held out a pair of boxers which read 'horny devil' on them, and when she found the matching sock's, she burst out laughing.
"What? They're my favorite pair!" Alec grinned.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Can't this thing go any faster pal? Step on it, we're gonna be late," this time it was Alec complaining, from the front seat of the car.
"Well, if YOU," and she emphasized the you part, " hadn't FORGOT" and she emphasized the forgot part, "to pack last night, than WE," and she emphasized the we part, "wouldn't be running late right about now, horny devil!" Max had calmed down a lot since she had seen Alec's boxers and matching socks, and even more when she found several more matched pairs of boxers with socks.
Seth, sitting there driving, found this whole conversation amusing. It just proved how much chemistry the two had between them, and he knew that they both had feelings for each other, and between him and Kelly, they found it very annoying that they didn't do anything about those feelings, didn't acknowledge them and acted as though they weren't there.
There was just so much tension there.
Sexual tension.
Just too much.
XXXXXXXXXX
After the long drive to the port, Max and Alec had finally arrived on the ship and were at the reception counter, waiting to get their keys to their rooms.
"Name please?" came the receptionists high pitched annoying voice (think Karen in 'Will and Grace').
"Mary Robinson," Max replied, smiling sweetly at the receptionist, giving her an alias name Logan had given her.
"Oh yes miss, was that the honeymoon suite with your fiancé, George Screet?"
Both transgenic's froze. That was the alias naming Logan had given Alec. 'Fiancé?'
Realizing what was happening, and not wanting to give themselves away, Alec wrapped his arm around Max's small waist, smiled at the receptionist and said, "that's right," while pulling Max closer and hissing into her ear so softly that no one else could hear, "play along!"
XXXXXXXXXX
Alec closed the door behind him and whistled at the sight of the room.
"Wow! This is really nice digs."
"What the hell was Logan thinking?"
Furiously, Max turned around.
"Gimme your phone now!" Alec reached into his leather jacket and held out his phone to her, he had had too many bad experiences to question Max in times like these, and within seconds, she had Logan on the phone and was yelling her heart out at him.
Alec almost felt sorry for the guy.
Almost.
But that wasn't a sight one saw everyday, Max yelling at Logan, so obviously Alec savored the moment.
After a while, he got bored of the conversation and went around the cabin for closer inspection.. it was impressive.
When Max walked into the bedroom, Alec was sitting on the bed, bouncing it with his ass, testing it out.
"Your sleeping on the couch Alec," she stated, matter of factly.
Alec knew this was coming, he knew why it was the 'honeymoon' sweet as soon as the receptionist had said it; Logan had thought that he was going to be the one on this cruise with Max, and while he couldn't touch her, the whole prospect of having people around him know that he and Max were an item was somewhat reassuring to him. It was also a way of assuring himself that someday it would happen.
'Very doubtful,' Alec thought.
"Forget it Max," he began, sighing, "there is no way I am not sleeping in this bed, and do you have any idea how comfortable it is? Besides, its not my fault Logan stuffed us up, so why should I suffer?" he couldn't resist adding in that last part, to stir Max up a bit.
"Alec-" Max began to protest.
"No, Max, final, I'm not sleeping on the couch, if your so touchy about sleeping in the same bed as me then I suggest that you sleep on the couch, because I am not moving!"
By this point Max was furious at Alec's refusal of giving up the bed, so she definitely wouldn't.
"Stop being a Dick Alec, you're sleeping on the couch!"
"Over my dead body! And you CANT tell me what to do Max!"
There was no use fighting with each other, both transgenic's were strong willed and neither was going to back down.
So they both had to share the bed.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Alec, are you going to unpack your stuff or what? ...Alec?"
No response.
"Hey! Alec!"
No response.
She walked into the room where Alec was sitting watching TV with a big bowl of popcorn, lollies, chips, whipped cream and surprisingly, a bowl of strawberries, completely oblivious to her presence.
Getting shitty at being ignored, mas stormed over to him, grabbed the control, switched off his 'boob tube', slapped him across the head and spilled the bowl of popcorn over the top of his head.
Alec got up, and Max thought he looked furious, he turned around, faced Max, and it was the that she saw his evil, cheeky, I'm-up-to-something smirk in place, and before she knew what was happening she was being showered with whipped cream.
"Oh you'll pay for that you asshole!"
Alec grabbed the bowl of lollies before Max could do anything and started sticking them all over the whipped cream, which was all over Max, making smiley faces and weird shapes all over her.
"What you call me?" he asked innocently.
"You heard me, A-S-S-H-O-L-E!"
The can of whipped cream lay on the floor forgotten for a while, and when max spotted it, she blurred toward it, picking it up and immediately showering Alec in it.
The war had begun.
As Max was showering ALEC in whipped cream, her joyful face suddenly turned panicked when the whipped cream all of a sudden ran out.
"Shit!"
seeing this, Alec immediately attacked her, and within seconds had her on the floor and was tickling her to death. When he eventually stopped and was about to ask her whether she had given up or not, and make her confess that he had won, he suddenly found himself on his back and more whipped cream had been splattered all over his face.
'Shit I thought I his that!' Alec fumed to himself.
But there wasn't much in it and when it eventually stopped and Alec saw the panicked face Max was wearing when this same thing happened before, he immediately had her on her back again.
"Give up Maxie? I win, I'm just too good!"
"Never!" Max's voice came out, not harsh, or mean, or sharp, it was sort of soft and came out as a sigh. Her eyes where on his lips he realized, and he saw a flash of desire across her eyes.
Without even realizing what he was doing, he felt himself lean down, too lost in the moment, his lips touched hers, just barely, but just the feel of her lips so close to his sent shivers down his spine.
He leant down even further, wanting to taste her completely, and he could feel her anxiousness to taste him too, matching his own, and when his lips were pressed hard against her own in a closed mouth kiss, the inevitable happened:
Beep. Beep.
'Damn that pager!'
Reaching for her pager and taking a look at it Max looked up at Alec and breathed, "Its Kelly." She almost sounded disappointed.
"Ah...yeah...ok then," Alec slowly got off of her and quietly went back to the sofa while Max grabbed his phone and called Kelly back.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Hey Max, thanks for hitting me back."
"Yeah, what up Kel?" Max snapped into the phone.
"Uh, is everything OK?" Kelly asked, taken aback.
"Fine."
"Well, we have a problem over here at the moment, Sara's gone into heat and it's turned into a testosterone battleground over here, there are a whole bunch of males fighting over her, we don't know what to do."
"Oh," Max sighed, "I'm not sure, I've never dealt with this sort of thing before, um, let me get Alec, he should know, hang on a tic."
XXXXXXXXXX
Alec hung up the phone and walked up to Max.
"Everything's sorted out, it's fine." He informed her.
"Thanks for that Alec."
"No problem," he paused and looked at her, "Listen, I'm gonna go head over to the bar for a few drinks right now, you OK by yourself? We can stake the place out tonight when everyone's asleep or partying, work out how we're gonna get the disk."
"Sure, I'll meet you there tonight."
XXXXXXXXXX
Alec was at the bar drinking his usual; scotch. He was thinking about what had almost happened. How good Max's lips felt, tasted, everything, her scent, she was intoxicating and she drove him wild, without even knowing it.
Meanwhile, a gorgeous looking red head with a voluptuous body, had being eyeing Alec, and when she saw him look up, she made eye contact with him, smiled and made her way over to the stool beside him and ordered a drink.
"Hey," he greeted her seductively.
'Anything to keep my mind off Max' he kept thinking to himself.
"Hi," she replied, matching his seductiveness. "I'm Lisa," she introduced herself extending her hand.
"Alec," he replied, taking her hand and kissing it charmingly, "pleasure."
XXXXXXXXXX
When Max walked into the bar a few hours later looking for Alec, she was disgusted with the sight she met; Alec was sitting with a gorgeous, read headed young woman, and was charming the pants off her. He was so fake, and that's what disgusted her, she told herself.
She decided to have a little fun.
She walked right up to the pair and when she got to Alec she put her arm around his waist and gave him a sensual peck on the cheek, saying, "Hi honey, I've been looking for you everywhere!"
She wished she had a camera with her that very moment because the look on the poor girls face was priceless, and the look on Alec's face was even more so.
"Who is this sweety?" Max asked, eyeing the redhead with dislike, "aren't you going to introduce your fiancé to your new friend?" she asked with fake sweetness.
Alec got up and put his arm around her petite form, which surprised her a bit, and smiled evilly down at her and said so softly that she wouldn't have been able to hear if it wasn't for her enhanced hearing, "two can play at this game Max, you'll pay!"
"Lisa, this is Mary, my fiancé," he turned to Max, faking a smile, "hoe are you honey? I thought you were going to have a shower after your swim?" he hugged her tighter to him and began placing soft sensual pecks down her neck.
Max was beginning to feel really uncomfortable; he was good at getting her back. Thought she felt uncomfortable, she couldn't help but enjoy the feel of his kisses running down her neck, but knowing that he was doing this to spite her, she pushed the thought out of her head and firmly decided that he was going to pay for this...later.
"Well, I thought we could have one togeth-"
But she didn't have time to finish her sentence because Alec's came crashing down on hers into a passionate kiss, she felt his tongue, warm and sensual, slide into her mouth and explore it, and she also felt her knees wobble and almost give way. 'Why was he turning her to jelly?'
When he finally pulled away, and it felt like it had taken forever to Max, he smirked yet again, and once again had her in a tight hug, "well then, we better get going if you still want to have that shower, and have a bit of fun," he winked at Lisa, "see you around?"
Lisa looked disappointed at the fact that Alec had been taken.
"Nice to meet you Lisa," Max smiled sweetly, furious with Alec for his little display.
As they walked away together, Alec's arm still wrapped around Max's waist possessively, Max spoke.
"You bastard!"
"You asked for it," he smiled at her mockingly, "Sweety!"
Max scowled.
"You ruined my chance with that chick, and we would have had quite a night too."
"Hey! We are not here to have fun! We are here on a mission, this isn't a time for you to pick up honeys!"
"Whatever!" he snapped, "So, are you ready for some exploring?" he asked, rubbing his hands together.
"Lets just get this over with," she rolled her eyes.
XXXXXXXXXX
(Two hours later.)
"I cannot believe we haven't found it yet!" Alec snapped in frustration.
"Well, it's a big ship Alec, we aren't going to find it that easily, if you have a better idea, go for your life, otherwise, SHUT YOUR FACE!"
"Actually..."
Max groaned.
"C'mon Max, why don't we just ASK the receptionist?"
"I already told you Alec, No. Its too suspicious."
"We can't find him anywhere Max, I'm sure one of us can occupy him while the other sneaks behind the desk and finds the room number and key!"
"Fine!" she snapped, " if it'll shut you up! I occupy!"
"That's what I'm talking about!" he said satisfied.
XXXXXXXXXX
Max unbuttoned a few of her buttons on her shirt to reveal some cleavage, in preparation so she could get the receptionists mind off concentrating, to get him away from his desk with her for a while (the receptionist shift changed and now it's a male).
When Max was done unbuttoning her buttons she noticed Alec's eyes wonder and the cheeky smirk that captured his face when he looked back at her face.
"I'd like to see this," he said cheekily.
Max, humphed, walked up to the receptionist, sure of herself.
When she was at the desk she gave a slight cough to get his attention, but he didn't even look up from whatever it was he was doing to give her even the slightest glance.
After several more attempts to get his attention, Max gave up and came pouting back to Alec, who was laughing his ass off.
"Awe, what's wrong Maxie? Didn't work out? Hmmm, let me give it a try."
Max slapped him on the back as he walked off and approached the receptionist.
Max was watching with curiosity.
'There's no way he could do it' she kept thinking.
But as she watched she saw Alec with his arm on the receptionist shoulder and talking to him like he was an old mate of his.
'Oh my God, how did he do it?'
Getting over her shock, she quickly made her way over to the desk, looked around to make sure no one was watching and crept behind the desk making her way to the computer.
Typing in the name 'Steve Cedric' on the computer and waiting for his name and room number to come up she heard a coughing noise; someone was trying to get her attention.
She looked up.
It was Steve Cedric.
XXXXXXXXXX

CHAPTER 1
Beep. Beep.
"It's Logan."
"Again?'
"Yeah."
"That's the 6th time in 20 minutes Max! Just hit the guy back will you, it must be important!"
"Fine!"
XXXXXXXXXX
"How important is this that you couldn't tell us over the phone, Logan?"
They were back at Logan's 'new' fancy apartment, usual positions, Max and Alec on the sofa, sitting behind the work absorbed Logan, who was sitting in front of the love of his life.

"Like I said before, no one knows this guys true identity His name is Steve, Steve Cedric, and now that I've got a lead and a chance to expose him I'm not going to let it pass."
"And where do we come into it?" Max asked hesitantly, almost afraid at what was coming.
XXXXXXXXXX
"So we aren't going to be here all next week," Max was explaining to Kelly, another transgenic, second female in command, who Max had become very close friends with, "Logan wants us to nail this guy Steve Cedric, steal all his files, the loser keeps records of all his dirty business, it's like he's asking for some one to come and nail him."
"So you guys are going to be on a cruise all week? Lucky! Alec is telling Seth now is he? I'm sure me and Seth can take care of everything here, you just enjoy yourself," Kelly smiled at Max.
"Trust me Kel, it wont be fun, not with Alec annoying the hell out of me all week," Max paused and sighed, "Logan did want to be the one to go with me, but I ain't going to risk it, not after all those other times."
"So things aren't getting any better with Logan?" Kelly asked, pushing a long blonde lock of hair out of her eyes, a gentle and reassuring smile on her face, "don't worry, I'm sure things will start looking up soon," she gave Max a friendly hug, pulled back and asked, "So what is it that you want us to do while you are away?"
"Well, Alec's got that under control, and I'm sure he's telling Seth right about now, but basically just getting us our supplies , and making sure everything runs smoothly," she paused and then added as an after thought, "I think Dix said something about getting us some water and electronic supplies, ask Seth about that, you might have to look into it."
"No problem Max, you should go pack then. Do you need any help?" Kelly asked sweetly.
"Oh, no, it's OK, thanks."
"So Seth will be dropping you off at the port tomorrow?"
"Yes he will."
"OK then, seems like everything is under control, you have a good week, and I'll see you when you get back, bye Max," she smiled and walked off.
XXXXXXXXXX
"OK Alec, I got all that, your going to be gone for a week tomorrow, me and Kel will be in command while you and Max are gone. Supplies will be picked up on Tuesday, Electricity will be Dix's job and that's happening on Wednesday, and on Friday the guys are going to somehow get a water supply into the city and I'm dropping you off at the port tomorrow. Beautiful, no problem," here he smirked, rubbed his hands together and asked what he really wanted to know.
"So tell me about this cruise."
"Well, Logan wants us to steal some files off this bozo loser he's looking to nail, two minute job basically, the rest of the time, I'm thinking, well, you know," he winked while the other man looked at him enviously," picking up some fine honeys and having a very good time."
Seth didn't like Logan, then again none of the transgenic's in TC liked him apart from Max, and that's the only reason they all put up with his shit, and he didn't like the idea of Max and Alec always having to go on these stupid dangerous missions for him when they had more important responsibilities here they needed to attend to.

Well not really alone, but the only person he knew, but, disappointingly, he was going to use other chicks to get his mind off her, just like typical Alec always did. But he couldn't resist the urge he had now to stir his pal up a bit.
"Woah man," he said enthusiastically, " your going to be ALONE with Max the whole week, just the two of you, and your going to be picking up other chicks? Are you crazy? You could make your move on her here!"
Alec looked pissed.
"How many times do I have to tell you, I DON'T like Max, I DON'T want Max, I never did, it's never going to happen!"
"Not unless you don't MAKE it happen," Seth persisted crossly.
"Listen," Alec said, getting sick of Seth's little games, "Don't go there pal-"
"Fine, Fine!" Seth backed away, hands up in mock surrender, "relax man!"
"Good," Alec replied, walking away.
Seth shook his head knowingly to himself as Alec walked away.

(Morning)
"Alec! Alec you moron! Wake up! Get the hell outta bed Alec!"
This was the lovely greeting Alec awoke to the next morning. Groggy from just getting up and having a splitting headache from Max's piercing shouts, due to his highly sensitive hearing.
"Hurry up! We are going to be late! Where's your stuff Alec? We have to load it in the car." She looked panicked.

Max saw the look on Alec's face, it was distinctly his oops-I-did-something- that-you-wont-like-please-don't-yell-at-me-Max look, and she distinctly heard him mutter to him self the words 'uh-oh'.
A shot of anger so hot and steamy ran through her that she couldn't contain herself from yelling, what did it matter anyway?
"ALEC!" he had the distinct impression that all of TC would have definitely awoken to the sound of Max's extremely angry yell, "do you have any idea how late we are going to be? I cannot believe you didn't pack!"
She leapt up from her position on the bed and frantically started pulling out Alec's drawers, grabbing handfuls of clothes from left, right and center, "get me your suitcase Alec, quick!" Alec obediently obliged and handed her his suitcase to which she stuffed in all the clothes that she caught sight of.
Nearing the end of the 'packing session' when Max had reached a drawer, which evidently was his boxer drawer, she let out a little giggle and held out a pair of boxers which read 'horny devil' on them, and when she found the matching sock's, she burst out laughing.

Max had calmed down a lot since she had seen Alec's boxers and matching socks, and even more when she found several more matched pairs of boxers with socks.

It just proved how much chemistry the two had between them, and he knew that they both had feelings for each other, and between him and Kelly, they found it very annoying that they didn't do anything about those feelings, didn't acknowledge them and acted as though they weren't there.
There was just so much tension there.
Sexual tension.
Just too much.

After the long drive to the port, Max and Alec had finally arrived on the ship and were at the reception counter, waiting to get their keys to their rooms.
"Name please?" came the receptionists high pitched annoying voice (think Karen in 'Will and Grace').

"Oh yes miss, was that the honeymoon suite with your fiancé, George Screet?"
Both transgenic's froze. That was the alias naming Logan had given Alec. 'Fiancé?'
Realizing what was happening, and not wanting to give themselves away, Alec wrapped his arm around Max's small waist, smiled at the receptionist and said, "that's right," while pulling Max closer and hissing into her ear so softly that no one else could hear, "play along!"
XXXXXXXXXX
Alec closed the door behind him and whistled at the sight of the room.
"Wow! This is really nice digs."
"What the hell was Logan thinking?"
Furiously, Max turned around.
"Gimme your phone now!" Alec reached into his leather jacket and held out his phone to her, he had had too many bad experiences to question Max in times like these, and within seconds, she had Logan on the phone and was yelling her heart out at him.
Alec almost felt sorry for the guy.
Almost.
But that wasn't a sight one saw everyday, Max yelling at Logan, so obviously Alec savored the moment.
After a while, he got bored of the conversation and went around the cabin for closer inspection.. it was impressive.
When Max walked into the bedroom, Alec was sitting on the bed, bouncing it with his ass, testing it out.
"Your sleeping on the couch Alec," she stated, matter of factly.
Alec knew this was coming, he knew why it was the 'honeymoon' sweet as soon as the receptionist had said it; Logan had thought that he was going to be the one on this cruise with Max, and while he couldn't touch her, the whole prospect of having people around him know that he and Max were an item was somewhat reassuring to him. It was also a way of assuring himself that someday it would happen.
'Very doubtful,' Alec thought.
"Forget it Max," he began, sighing, "there is no way I am not sleeping in this bed, and do you have any idea how comfortable it is? Besides, its not my fault Logan stuffed us up, so why should I suffer?" he couldn't resist adding in that last part, to stir Max up a bit.
"Alec-" Max began to protest.
"No, Max, final, I'm not sleeping on the couch, if your so touchy about sleeping in the same bed as me then I suggest that you sleep on the couch, because I am not moving!"
By this point Max was furious at Alec's refusal of giving up the bed, so she definitely wouldn't.
"Stop being a Dick Alec, you're sleeping on the couch!"
"Over my dead body! And you CANT tell me what to do Max!"
There was no use fighting with each other, both transgenic's were strong willed and neither was going to back down.
So they both had to share the bed.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Alec, are you going to unpack your stuff or what? ...Alec?"
No response.
"Hey! Alec!"
No response.
She walked into the room where Alec was sitting watching TV with a big bowl of popcorn, lollies, chips, whipped cream and surprisingly, a bowl of strawberries, completely oblivious to her presence.
Getting shitty at being ignored, mas stormed over to him, grabbed the control, switched off his 'boob tube', slapped him across the head and spilled the bowl of popcorn over the top of his head.
Alec got up, and Max thought he looked furious, he turned around, faced Max, and it was the that she saw his evil, cheeky, I'm-up-to-something smirk in place, and before she knew what was happening she was being showered with whipped cream.
"Oh you'll pay for that you asshole!"
Alec grabbed the bowl of lollies before Max could do anything and started sticking them all over the whipped cream, which was all over Max, making smiley faces and weird shapes all over her.
"What you call me?" he asked innocently.
"You heard me, A-S-S-H-O-L-E!"
The can of whipped cream lay on the floor forgotten for a while, and when max spotted it, she blurred toward it, picking it up and immediately showering Alec in it.
The war had begun.
As Max was showering ALEC in whipped cream, her joyful face suddenly turned panicked when the whipped cream all of a sudden ran out.
"Shit!"
seeing this, Alec immediately attacked her, and within seconds had her on the floor and was tickling her to death. When he eventually stopped and was about to ask her whether she had given up or not, and make her confess that he had won, he suddenly found himself on his back and more whipped cream had been splattered all over his face.
'Shit I thought I his that!' Alec fumed to himself.
But there wasn't much in it and when it eventually stopped and Alec saw the panicked face Max was wearing when this same thing happened before, he immediately had her on her back again.
"Give up Maxie? I win, I'm just too good!"
"Never!" Max's voice came out, not harsh, or mean, or sharp, it was sort of soft and came out as a sigh. Her eyes where on his lips he realized, and he saw a flash of desire across her eyes.
Without even realizing what he was doing, he felt himself lean down, too lost in the moment, his lips touched hers, just barely, but just the feel of her lips so close to his sent shivers down his spine.
He leant down even further, wanting to taste her completely, and he could feel her anxiousness to taste him too, matching his own, and when his lips were pressed hard against her own in a closed mouth kiss, the inevitable happened:
Beep. Beep.
'Damn that pager!'
Reaching for her pager and taking a look at it Max looked up at Alec and breathed, "Its Kelly." She almost sounded disappointed.
"Ah...yeah...ok then," Alec slowly got off of her and quietly went back to the sofa while Max grabbed his phone and called Kelly back.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Hey Max, thanks for hitting me back."
"Yeah, what up Kel?" Max snapped into the phone.
"Uh, is everything OK?" Kelly asked, taken aback.
"Fine."
"Well, we have a problem over here at the moment, Sara's gone into heat and it's turned into a testosterone battleground over here, there are a whole bunch of males fighting over her, we don't know what to do."
"Oh," Max sighed, "I'm not sure, I've never dealt with this sort of thing before, um, let me get Alec, he should know, hang on a tic."
XXXXXXXXXX
Alec hung up the phone and walked up to Max.
"Everything's sorted out, it's fine." He informed her.
"Thanks for that Alec."
"No problem," he paused and looked at her, "Listen, I'm gonna go head over to the bar for a few drinks right now, you OK by yourself? We can stake the place out tonight when everyone's asleep or partying, work out how we're gonna get the disk."
"Sure, I'll meet you there tonight."
XXXXXXXXXX
Alec was at the bar drinking his usual; scotch. He was thinking about what had almost happened. How good Max's lips felt, tasted, everything, her scent, she was intoxicating and she drove him wild, without even knowing it.
Meanwhile, a gorgeous looking red head with a voluptuous body, had being eyeing Alec, and when she saw him look up, she made eye contact with him, smiled and made her way over to the stool beside him and ordered a drink.
"Hey," he greeted her seductively.
'Anything to keep my mind off Max' he kept thinking to himself.
"Hi," she replied, matching his seductiveness. "I'm Lisa," she introduced herself extending her hand.
"Alec," he replied, taking her hand and kissing it charmingly, "pleasure."
XXXXXXXXXX
When Max walked into the bar a few hours later looking for Alec, she was disgusted with the sight she met; Alec was sitting with a gorgeous, read headed young woman, and was charming the pants off her. He was so fake, and that's what disgusted her, she told herself.
She decided to have a little fun.
She walked right up to the pair and when she got to Alec she put her arm around his waist and gave him a sensual peck on the cheek, saying, "Hi honey, I've been looking for you everywhere!"
She wished she had a camera with her that very moment because the look on the poor girls face was priceless, and the look on Alec's face was even more so.
"Who is this sweety?" Max asked, eyeing the redhead with dislike, "aren't you going to introduce your fiancé to your new friend?" she asked with fake sweetness.
Alec got up and put his arm around her petite form, which surprised her a bit, and smiled evilly down at her and said so softly that she wouldn't have been able to hear if it wasn't for her enhanced hearing, "two can play at this game Max, you'll pay!"
"Lisa, this is Mary, my fiancé," he turned to Max, faking a smile, "hoe are you honey? I thought you were going to have a shower after your swim?" he hugged her tighter to him and began placing soft sensual pecks down her neck.
Max was beginning to feel really uncomfortable; he was good at getting her back. Thought she felt uncomfortable, she couldn't help but enjoy the feel of his kisses running down her neck, but knowing that he was doing this to spite her, she pushed the thought out of her head and firmly decided that he was going to pay for this...later.
"Well, I thought we could have one togeth-"
But she didn't have time to finish her sentence because Alec's came crashing down on hers into a passionate kiss, she felt his tongue, warm and sensual, slide into her mouth and explore it, and she also felt her knees wobble and almost give way. 'Why was he turning her to jelly?'
When he finally pulled away, and it felt like it had taken forever to Max, he smirked yet again, and once again had her in a tight hug, "well then, we better get going if you still want to have that shower, and have a bit of fun," he winked at Lisa, "see you around?"
Lisa looked disappointed at the fact that Alec had been taken.
"Nice to meet you Lisa," Max smiled sweetly, furious with Alec for his little display.
As they walked away together, Alec's arm still wrapped around Max's waist possessively, Max spoke.
"You bastard!"
"You asked for it," he smiled at her mockingly, "Sweety!"
Max scowled.
"You ruined my chance with that chick, and we would have had quite a night too."
"Hey! We are not here to have fun! We are here on a mission, this isn't a time for you to pick up honeys!"
"Whatever!" he snapped, "So, are you ready for some exploring?" he asked, rubbing his hands together.
"Lets just get this over with," she rolled her eyes.
XXXXXXXXXX
(Two hours later.)
"I cannot believe we haven't found it yet!" Alec snapped in frustration.
"Well, it's a big ship Alec, we aren't going to find it that easily, if you have a better idea, go for your life, otherwise, SHUT YOUR FACE!"
"Actually..."
Max groaned.
"C'mon Max, why don't we just ASK the receptionist?"
"I already told you Alec, No. Its too suspicious."
"We can't find him anywhere Max, I'm sure one of us can occupy him while the other sneaks behind the desk and finds the room number and key!"
"Fine!" she snapped, " if it'll shut you up! I occupy!"
"That's what I'm talking about!" he said satisfied.
XXXXXXXXXX
Max unbuttoned a few of her buttons on her shirt to reveal some cleavage, in preparation so she could get the receptionists mind off concentrating, to get him away from his desk with her for a while (the receptionist shift changed and now it's a male).
When Max was done unbuttoning her buttons she noticed Alec's eyes wonder and the cheeky smirk that captured his face when he looked back at her face.
"I'd like to see this," he said cheekily.
Max, humphed, walked up to the receptionist, sure of herself.
When she was at the desk she gave a slight cough to get his attention, but he didn't even look up from whatever it was he was doing to give her even the slightest glance.
After several more attempts to get his attention, Max gave up and came pouting back to Alec, who was laughing his ass off.
"Awe, what's wrong Maxie? Didn't work out? Hmmm, let me give it a try."
Max slapped him on the back as he walked off and approached the receptionist.
Max was watching with curiosity.
'There's no way he could do it' she kept thinking.
But as she watched she saw Alec with his arm on the receptionist shoulder and talking to him like he was an old mate of his.
'Oh my God, how did he do it?'
Getting over her shock, she quickly made her way over to the desk, looked around to make sure no one was watching and crept behind the desk making her way to the computer.
Typing in the name 'Steve Cedric' on the computer and waiting for his name and room number to come up she heard a coughing noise; someone was trying to get her attention.
She looked up.
It was Steve Cedric.
