He felt her pull back from his embrace, he released the pressure of his hug
but didn't let go.
"Take it you missed me huh?" she grinned up at him.
"So much," he whispered back to her. She looked up at his words but turned away just as quickly trying to free herself from his arms. He watched her struggling with a smile on his face but then finally released her. He stepped back to and took her in with his eyes. His gaze rested on her hair. She saw the look on his face and smiled.
"Well, they say that blondes have more fun," she explained smiling up at him.
"Do they?" he asked her.
"Not really," she replied, "good thing it's only a wig huh?" she smirked and pulled it off her head. Her long black hair fell down and she looked at him only to see him reaching out for her again. She moved quickly, pretending to be looking at the apartment.
"Nice place," she said, smirking at him, "real clean" and started laughing.
He looked around and blushed at the mess his apartment was in. he walked towards her, wanting to feel her in his arms again. She backed away to the window. He stopped and his face fell. She still hated him he thought to himself. Then he felt her hand on his arm. He turned to see her smiling sadly at him. He pulled her into his arms again and sat down on the couch, pulling her onto his lap. They just sat there for a while, none of them knew what to say and none of them wanting to break the embrace. He had missed this so much, he missed the way she felt, the way she smelt, he missed everything about her and now she was back. He didn't want to let her go. She pulled her head back from his shoulder and looked at him. He looked down, he didn't want to talk about it but he knew that it would be the only way to get her back.
"Max was in heat," he said quietly. Looking deep into her eyes. "I know that this isn't much of an excuse but I just couldn't help myself." He lowered his gaze but then made himself look back at her again. She looked at him. He saw the shock in her eyes, then the pain and finally sadness. She couldn't believe that that was what had happened. All this time she had thought that they had been together because they had wanted to be. Now he tells her it had only been heat. She looked at him and knew that he had been hurt when she had left and she flinched when she realized that she should have at least let him explain. Then none of this would have happened. She looked up and stroked the side of his face, he moved into her touch. Their lips were millimeters apart when she remembered that he was with Max now, she pulled away. He looked at her, the pain evident on his face. She went to get up from his lap when he pulled her back down again. He held her head and leaned in to kiss her when the door flew open.
"Oy Alec," then silence as the intruder looked at the position they were in.
Alec stared in shock not knowing what to do.
"Hey Biggsy" Jade said laughing at the look on his face.
'Stacy?" Biggs asked incredulously.
"Yeah, it's me." she looked at Alec and got up from his lap. "We're old friends, just came by to say hello."
"Just to say hello huh?" Biggs asked the disbelief evident in his face. She laughed again them announced that she had to go. "Hang on Stacy, I thought you were blonde?"
"Oh ..um. this is a wig," she said. "I thought it was about time for a change, see what its like for people with black hair you know. Bye Alec, seeya Biggsy." And with that she left, picking up her wig and hiding it under her jacket so Biggs wouldn't see it. She hoped that Alec wouldn't say anything, god that was hard. She knew that she wouldn't be able to control herself but she resolved not to be too near him. That way it wouldn't happen again. She put her wig back on in the corridor, she didn't want anyone else to see her with black hair.
Alec looked at the door in shock, he turned to see Biggs doing the same thing.
"She looks better with black hair," Biggs said looking at Alec. "What were you two doing?" he asked with raised eyebrows.
"Nothing," Alec replied.
Biggs laughed "Sure man, whatever. I just told her like an hour ago that you were with Max, woman moves fast huh? So are you two really just old friends or what?"
"Yeah we're old friends..wait. Did you say you told her that I was with Max?"
"Yeah why?"
"Why did you tell her that?!'
Biggs looked surprised. "Because you are, aren't you?"
"No!! What made you think that we were?!"
"Well Bobbie overheard Max telling Logan that..."
"Max was telling Logan WHAT!!!!!!" he roared. Then pushed his way past Biggs intent of finding Max. He couldn't believe her. Why would she tell Logan that! All of a sudden he stopped, now he knew why Jade had pulled away from him. Jade.or was it Stacy. What the hell, he didn't understand it. She had told Biggs that her name was Stacy, she also told him that her REAL black hair was a wig. What was that girl up to? Bloody female population, he just couldn't understand it. He'd ask her tomorrow. He made his way to Max's apartment. He knocked but no one answered, so he opened the door. Looking inside he sensed that no one was here. He went out and made his way to headquarters.
"Mole, have you seen Max?" he said angrily.
Mole had been about to made some stupid remark when he saw the look in Alec's eyes. He knew not to mess with him when he was in this mood. "I think she's at Logan's" he stammered. Alec walked off. At Logan's he thought. Probably making more stuff up about me. He walked into Logan's room to find Max pressed against the wall and Logan advancing. "What the hell are you doing?" he asked, taking in Max's scared expression.
"Take it you missed me huh?" she grinned up at him.
"So much," he whispered back to her. She looked up at his words but turned away just as quickly trying to free herself from his arms. He watched her struggling with a smile on his face but then finally released her. He stepped back to and took her in with his eyes. His gaze rested on her hair.
