A/N: This is a couple of weeks after Freak Nation. Biggs and Cece didn't
die either.
Alec walked around Headquarters. He looked around in pride at all the work the transgenics had done. There was only one problem, most of them didn't want to listen to Max because of being rogue and all. They didn't trust her and most of them don't even like her. He knew that the only reason they hadn't rebelled was because he had told them to listen to her. He was worried about Mole though, he was getting harder and harder to control. Max still had no idea that it was because of him that everyone listened to her but she was starting to suspect something. He didn't want her to know his rank. She still thought of him as smart alec. She didn't think that he was anyone important but now with all the new transgenics coming in it was getting harder to get around and tell them not to call him sir and not to act like he was their commander anymore. He looked around, he suddenly had a feeling that there was something wrong and he had learnt to trust his own instincts but he didn't see anything weird, there was Max, Mole, Joshua and Biggs. Biggs looked like he was talking to himself, there wasn't anyone else there but his mouth was moving. He was about to yell out when a blonde girl stood up from the chair, he hadn't seen her. This was obviously who Biggs was talking to, he smirked maybe I should go and introduce myself. He was about to walk over when Logan walked pass Biggs. Logan. He sighed, life was hard and walked towards his apartment passing Logan on the way and ignoring him. He still had a feeling that he had been involved with the whole heat thing. Logan just looked up and smiled at him, smugly Alec thought. He walked quickly to his apartment. He didn't know why he had put that protective order on Logan, actually he did know why, it was because Max still cared about him and he didn't want to see her hurt. He sighed again and opened the door to his apartment walking straight to the cupboard and pulling out a bottle of scotch. It could always take the pain away, even if it was only there for a little while.
"So we have to assign you a room," Biggs said looking at the pretty girl standing next to him. She was really stunning, long blonde hair and the most amazing green eyes he had ever seen. She turned and smiled at him.
"So, is that our leader?" she asked, pointing over at Alec.
"Yeah, well not really. Max is supposed to be our leader but most people are only following Alec."
"Bet Max doesn't realize that."
Biggs looked at her in surprise. "How did you know that?"
"Just a guess," she said grinning up at him. "So, where am I gonna live Biggsy?" she said laughing.
"Biggsy?" he exclaimed, trying to act offended but utterly failing. He smiled back down at her. He walked her over to her assigned apartment.
"So... are Alec and Max together?" she asked.
"Why?" he said interested.
"Just wondering" she said looking up at him.
"Well I think they are but Alec hasn't said anything to me which is weird. He will usually talk to me about anything but he hasn't said anything so I dunno."
"So they are?" she asked. He glanced over at her not really knowing how to comprehend the look on her face.
"Yeah, are you alright?" he asked, worried.
"I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?" flashing him a bright smile.
"Well we're here, do you need any help?"
"No I should be fine thanx," she said and walked in. "Bye Biggsy" she said and laughed at the look on his face before she shut the door. I should have known she thought as she closed her eyes. They're together. She opened her eyes again, I'm going over to talk to him. No I wont. Oh crap she thought. She really wanted to see him but she knew that she wouldn't be able to stop herself from holding him if she does and she didn't want to have to be anywhere near him. She didn't trust herself around him and knew that she had to distance herself from him if he was with Max. Especially if he was with Max. She wouldn't be like Max, she could control herself. She still felt really angry but then what's happened has happened and there was nothing she could do about it. And all that matters was the he's happy. She sighed not knowing whether she should go talk to him. He probably doesn't even want to see me she thought. No Jade, you are gonna go over there and act like nothing happened she commanded herself. She would do it, if she was gonna stay in Terminal City she would have to see him sometime and it would be better if they could talk first. She stood up and walked out to find his apartment.
Alec sat on his couch the bottle of scotch only half finished but forgotten as he drifted through the memories of Jade. Nothing he could do would take her off his mind, he just didn't know how to deal. There was a knock on his door and he yelled out, "its open." The door creaked open and that girl was standing there. The one Biggs was talking to. He looked at her, thinking that she looked really familiar when he saw her eyes. He stood up quickly not taking his eyes off hers, he didn't believe it. She was there, he had to be drunk or dreaming. He pinched himself hard, and she laughed. He looked up, he had missed that laugh so much, he didn't think that he'd ever hear it again either. She just looked at him in amusement then smirked "miss me?" "Jade" he whispered, and ran to her pulling her to him, not wanting to ever let her go again.
