Chapter 15
What kind of lame excuse is that? The virus thing wasn´t going anywhere and I could affor any more accidents...' thought Alec, mocking at her. 'Yeah, right. Why then, in all Heaven´s sakes, did she had to drag me into it? That´s right... becouse she didn´t give a shit about me and now, I´m in this tight situation with Logan.
At least, now I understand why Logan had been acting so weird ´round me. But still! What Max did... In the bad guy now!!' he thought in sock, 'Well, I´m always the bad guy round Max...
After that little talk he had with Max, he left her appartment very pissed. Max was feeling much better so he didn´t feel guilty ´bout leaving her all alone in there.
Logan had already said it all, but still, hearing Max´s excuses for using him like if he was some kind of trash who didn´t have feelings, had been hard.
Alec ended up in Terminal City again. Maybe if he help with something, he would forget ´bout Max for a while. Thing was, Joshua was in Terminal City too and, as I said before, the Big Fella could see right through him. And that´s exactly what he did.
"Hey, Alec."
"Hey, Josh." said Alec as he saw the big dog man on the street near the HQ.
"How´s Little Fella?"
"She´s just... fine." Alec said the last part like if he hadn´t meant it, like if words had another meaning.
"What happen?" asked Joshua knowing something had happen with Max.
"Nothing happen, Josh." answered Alec as he was about to enter the HQ, avoiding Joshua´s question. But he stopped the X-5´s track with his big hand over his chest.
"Alec upset with Little Fella."
Alec looked up at his tall, very tall frien, into those honest blue eyes. "How do you do that?" he asked with deep SERIEDAD this time.
Joshua steared at the X-5 at the eyes with deep confusion. "What does Joshua do?"
Alec smiled. "That. Always knowing waht´s wrong with me."
Joshua wasn´t sure what to answer. He didn´t know how he knew it, he just... did.
"Come on," said Alec putting his hand over the transhuman´s shoulder, "I´ll tell you what happen."

He didn´t even yell at me. He just looked at me, picked his jacket and left the apartment, never saying a word.
And that is what most worries me. Alec´s not the kind of guy who hardly talks. I´m used to hear him talking all the time and, even though I used to hate that part of him, it´s the only way we have to know if he´s ok or not. If he´s all quiet, Headcliff-like (as Cindy would say) we know there´s something wrong with him.
Alec would usually tell me why he´s mad with me. A flashback of their little conversation that night at Crash when he had supposedly 'blow' his shot with Asha. He had definetely shown his anger with her. Maybe he hadn´t had a chance to tell her, but he showed it. He´s never afraid to tell me what´s he thinking about.' If she only knew... 'To tell the truth, his silence is what annoyes me... or when I know he´s lying to me while those fast gleames he has in which his eyes do become honest, contrary to his words.
He has all rights to be mad at me... I just want him to tell me he´s mad at me!
She had been on her apartment, walking from her bedroom to the living-room, from the living-room to the kitchen, from the kitchen to the bathroom, from the bathroom to her room again. It wasn´t like her apartment was that big, but she needed the walk, the thinking. She didn´t get it, the thinking I mean.
Max was anoyed, sad and bored, so she picked her bike´s keys and left to ride in the streets of Seattle looking for an answer, an apology for Alec.
It was night already so she went to Crash. OC was surely there. Of course her girl must have gone to the apartment to be with her, but Max had left a note telling OC she would be at Crash later.
She entered the doors of the place. Cindy waved her from the table. She was alone, no Sketchy or Logan in the way this time. Max slumped on the chair, OC sencing something said, "What happened?"
"Alec knew what I told Logan ´bout him and me."
Cindy, not as shock as she should´ve been, "What did he said?"
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"She used me! She totally used me!"
Joshua didn´t look as shock as he should´ve been. Alec looked at him. Where´s the Joshua who should be comforting me by now? Finally he asked, "Aren´t ya gonna say something, advice me, maybe, or comfort me?"
Joshua looked at Alec again, silently, which was driving the X-5 crazy. The Dog-man finally found the exact word that discribed Alec right now. "Idiot."
Alec was confused. "What?"
"Alec idiot." simply said Josh.
What?! Did I tell the story wrong?! "Why am I the idiot here?! I´m not he one who used someone else for self reward!" Bad Alec. Bad, bad, bad Alec... He had done that a million times during his short existance. During Manticore and after Manticore.
"Alec whines becouse Max´s with Logan, Alec whines becouse Max´s not with Logan, Alec whines becouse Little Fella told Logan she´s with you." said Joshua, raising a finger for every statement. "Alec idiot."
Alec was now very anoyed, he didn´t understant what Josh was trying to say. "Ok, Josh, I have no idea where you getting into."
"Virus bitch is gone." said Joshua, giving him more ovbious clues for Alec to get what he was saying.
"Yeah, so?" he said in a 'Duh!' way.
Joshua, who was the most patiente person... better say, transhuman there was in the entire planet was now losing it. He hit the X-5´s head, not too hard otherwise he could have killed him.
"What was that for?!" asked Alec in a very sorprised way.
Ok, this is it! Josh took Alec by the shoulders, "Virus´ gone, Max´s not with Logan and she told him she´s with Alec!! Understand?! Max wants to be with Medium Fella!"
Alec was shock both for the yelling of Big Fella and the words he had yelled. Max wanted him? Nah! Get out of here! Though, Joshua might be right. I mean, the virus´ definetely gone, and still she had told Logan they were together. Could this be truth? Could Max´s bitchy comentaries be more than that? Could they be more like a flirt? ... Then, they´d been flirting for over eight months!! Where the hell has he been?! In the moon maybe?!
"Oooh." said Alec reacting now.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"So he just left? Without saying a word?" said OC. Max nodded. "Well, girl, you fucked it real time."
"Gee, thanks, that makes me feel sooo much better."
"Sorry, boo, but what kind of friend would Original Cindy be if she lie to you. The boy´s aiight."
"Aiight ´bout what? He didn´t say a word!"
"He´s aiight ´bout being angry at ya. Look, ya and I both know OC ain´t the biggest Alec fan, but lately the boy has shown that he´s growing up. Right or not?"
"I guess so. But he´s still a dick." said Max trying not to feel so much like a big time bitch. If he at least was a bit of a dick then she wasn´t so bad either.
"Still, the boy has been doing a great job becoming into a little good man, trying to make ya feel proud of him. And then you go with that...? OC understands the poor boy."
Max was feeling a bit like a bitch. No, wait, she WAS a bitch!
"Maybe I should..." but she was interrupted by Cindy, who said, as she had read her friend´s thoughts, "Yeah, you should."
The X-5 looked at her friend one last time before leaving Crash to Alec´s apartment.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
She had arrived her destination, but had been standing in front of the guy´s door for over 10 minutes devating whether should she knock the door or not. The answer was: NOT. Max turn around and started to walk to the stairs to leave. No! Stop! Get a grip soldier! Now, go back there and apology with that boy, before I get there and kick yo´ ass! Now! Strangely, Max´s concience´s voice sounded so much like Cindy´s. Weird.
So she heard her concience, turn around again to Alec´s door, took a breath, and knocked it, before she regreat it again.
The door opened but... "Who are you?"
