waiting. Thanks. (

Comfort
After leaving Dr.Carrs, Alec decided walk Max home, leaving her to brood in peace. Quiet most of the way, Max snaps she wants to go to Logans, trying to persuade her against it, Alec pushes her in the direction of her house.
'Get off me, you jerk.' Max pushes Alec roughly aside, 'Man I've told you already I want to go to Logans, please, just let me do this.'
'Fine, have it your way, but I'm coming with, I don't want you to do something stupid, I know what your like in a state like this.'
'Oh you mean like killing Logan, sorry already done that.' Retorted Max bitterly.
Back at Logan's house, or what was left of it after Max's little episode of going psycho, Max crumbled at the sight of everything. She could smell him, sense him, in his things, it was all too much to deal with at once though, feeling an urge to destroy, she grabbed the phone on the table next to her, and slammed it against the wall.
Alec, who was in the back room, jumped at the sound, and looked in. 'She's got some rage alright. Don't do anything stupid.' He thought back to his conversation earlier and realised he would just have to let her get it out, let her deal with this now, better than later.
............................
Silence, Alec, having drifted off, realised nothing was crashing anymore, thinking that Max might have run off, he ran into the room, and stopped at what he saw. Max was crumbled up in a ball, crying softly into the cushion.
Sensing a presence, Max looked up.
'Alec, come here, please Alec.'
Cautiously, he went over to her.
'Sit down, here.' Max sat up and tapped the seat next to her. Sitting down, Max looks up at him, brushing her fingers across his face, Alec tenses up in surprise, but then relaxes.
'I don't know what to do, I, I killed him, he was all I had, he was my world, my goal when I was back at Manticore.'
Her face getting closer to Alec's, Max using both her hands, puts them on the side of his face, leans in and starts to kiss him. Overcome by everything, Alec starts to kiss her back, then with a start he realises what he is doing, and pulls away, slowly.
Looking at Max in the eyes, seeing how vulnerable she looked, he took hold of her hands and said, no he wasn't, you have me as well, don't forget it.
Sniffing, Max wipes her eyes and goes to put her head on Alec shoulder, feeling Alec tense up, She says, 'Just hold me, all I need now is a friend and some rest.
Doing as she asked, Alec puts his arms around her and watches her as she
drifts off to sleep.
