Disclaimer: Do I really have to say something? I'm still a poor girl…no, not really! But I don't own Dark Angel and it's a pity that I don't have Jensen Ackles… *lol*
A/N: There could be more reviews…not that I'm complaining! To sue: Suki isn't from Psy Ops, her visions are no where on her DNA or something like that. Manticore didn't plan on giving her visions. She's an X6, remember? That's not stuff the X-series is made of. I wasn't sure about making Suki that special, but as you like it…good! I know there are some people who've read my story and didn't review, I'd also like to thank them for reading this and I'd be very happy if they would review.
CHAPTER 3: Decisions

Joshua's house
"Hey, big fella!", Max entered the living room searching it for Joshua, "Joshua, where are you?"
"Hey, little fella!" Joshua shouted from the next room and waved with his paintbrush to Max through the open door.
Max walked up to him. "I brought you some stuff", she held up a paper bag, "hope you like it."
Joshua just nodded.
"What are you painting?…Oh, I see, another portrait of Annie?"
Joshua nodded again.
"You know you can't see her again…You know…"
"I know, people are scared of things they don't know", Joshua said sadly.
"Right." Max didn't know how to continue their talk.
"Little Fella upset?"
Max looked up from the ground she was staring at "What? Me?… No. Why?"
"You are so quiet…Alec was too, yesterday."
"Alec was here?" So that's were he had vanished to the previous evening. He had probably told Joshua every detail of their argument. But…no, Joshua has said he was quiet.
Joshua didn't look up from his painting "Yeah, didn't talk a lot, went straight to the basement and played the piano. The music sounded sad… played the whole night. Just left an hour ago."
That doesn't make any sense. He was angry at me, which is understandable. But, hey, I apologised…oh, wait, I didn't. But still, there's no way he'd be sad because of that thing…
"Are you the reason for Alec being sad?" Joshua looked at her now.
"No. I don't think so." Hmm, totally new option. What if I really hurt him? But why the hell should I care? I'm still talking, no: thinking, about Alec a.k.a. Mr.-I'm-always-all- right…
"Max?"
Max snapped out of her thoughts and took a look at her watch. "Sorry, Josh. I gotta go, I'm already late and I don't think that OC can make up any more explanations why I am. See ya!" She walked to the door.
"Bye little fella!"
Max waved at Joshua and walked out the door to her bike.

Jam Pony
"I'm sure she'll be here any minute." Original Cindy tried to explain to Normal.
"You already said that 10 minutes ago and once she's here, I'll fire her!"
"Yeah, do that", Alec said as he grabbed a package from the counter, "cos she's a selfish person, who only thinks about herself." And with that he was out the door.
"He's in a bad mood", Normal stated, "do you know why?"
"Why'd ya ask me? He's your golden boy." Cindy took a package herself and left the building.

Space Needle
Max decided not to go to work. Normal would fire her this or that way. She went straight to the Space Needle. She needed to think.
Did she really leave Logan just because of the virus? The longer she thought about it she came to the result that she didn't love him anymore. If she had ever really loved him. But why the fuck couldn't she just tell him this reason. She wasn't obliged to involve Alec. Everything would have been easier that way, Alec wouldn't be mad at her, well Logan would probably be, but she didn't see him anyway.
Alec was right, he was so damn right. And that annoyed her the most. You don't know what friendship means… his words. So he saw her as a friend. And what did she think of him. To her, Alec was just an annoying person, who annoyed the hell out of her every time they met. Or wasn't he?
It doesn't matter. The thing is I have to tell Logan the truth. But how?
A/N2: Sorry, this chapter is a bit short. I found it very difficult to write, escpecially the first scene. I had lots of trouble with writing Joshua. And I didn't have time either. School isn't easy… anyway, cheer me up from my gray school days by reviewing! Pretty please! And, Greebo, I know you read my fic why don't you review?
Loadsa Love, Hanna
