Anyway enjoy this because February is gonna be a busy month for me so I don't know when I'll post again. K here goes.
P.S Happy New Year. lol ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Passing Time
Ten minutes later they were in a Taxi headed home.
The Taxi stopped by Max's apartment to let her out. Alec hoped out too and paid the driver.
Max looked at him quizzically.
"Don't you know Max, the gentleman always takes his date to her front door" he explained "And don't worry, I feel like walking the rest of the way. it's not that far."
Max gave a little laugh. "Alright then"
They walked up the stairs silently each of them thinking about how they should end their first date.
When they arrived in front of Max's apartment she opened the door quietly and checked if OC was in there. After finding she wasn't she returned to the doorway that Alec was leaning on calmly.
"Well" began Max "Tonight's been." after searching around for a word she ended "fun!"
Alec grinned, happy that she too had a good time. He felt so much like a high school kid right now. While he was thinking this Max gave him a sweet little kiss on the cheek.
"Thanks Alec for a good time." She said and then seeing his puzzled face replied "I'm just ending this date like they do in the movies."
He grinned at her then turned around to leave. When he began walking away he looked over his shoulder cheekily and said "I'll call you then huh?" then disappeared down the stairway. Max laughed and closed the door.
Inside she sat on her couch incredibly relaxed. This was fun; I wonder what the second date will be like she thought as she drifted off into a peaceful slumber.
----------------------------~*~----------------------------
OC was leaning against her locker listening to a small portable radio she was holding. She was listening to it to find out who the winner of the sugar babes competition was. Even though she knew she had one in a million chance of winning, she had entered. The radio dj started speaking "And now something everyone's been waiting for. the sugar babes concert winner!!!
Well we have randomly picked a name from our box and.. The winner is. Original Cindy. What an original name" he joked "We have some good and bad news for you my dear, and we hope you're listening to this. One of the sugar babe's daughters is having a baby so the whole group couldn't make it. We're sorry for that but we do have tickets to another concert for The garleys! They are a great substitute for the sugar babes as a new age rock group with three number one hits already!!!" the dj went on and on.
OC scowled "this is bullshit!" she exclaimed while turning off the radio and throwing it none too gently into her locker. "I don't want to see some lame straight garleys!!"
She had been looking forward to this concert for weeks. If she couldn't win tickets, she was going to buy them. She absolutely loved the Sugar babes even though they were in their forties! She was gonna take her lickety boo to see em too!
What the hell was she going to do with these crap tickets? Then a thought came to her. She can change Max and Alec's second date a bit and include this stupid concert. Aha that way she can get rid of these free tickets and make her friends spend time together at the same time! I am a natural born genius she thought and smirked.
Max walked towards OC. "What you all smiley about girl?" she asked teasingly.
"Nothing boo, just solved a lil problem I had." She said covertly "so how did your first date go?"
Max told her all of it with all the details. OC 'ohhh-ed' at the highs and laughed at the lows.
"So you had an all out good time I take it?" OC asked
"Yeah girl, you do know how to plan a date" Max laughed "too bad I'm straight OC"
They both laughed at that.
Alec got to work a little later. He wasn't in trouble for his tardiness like Max would've been he only got a "Well you're here now, that's what matters" from normal and had a package given to him. He winked at Max and headed out again.
OC laughed. "You two seem real cozy. Nothing else happened did it?"
Max made a face then hit OC on the arm. "Girl NOTHING like that happened!"
"Chit chat at break time, not my time ladies" said Normal and threw 2 packages at them. Max caught her easily but OC missed and something sounded as if it smashed. "That was your fault normal." OC countered.
Normal sighed and told her to bring it over to him and shouted a "Get back to work" to everyone else who had stopped to stare.
"Good Luck" Max mimed then went out the door.
The day went by easily without any hitches. Max and Alec were acting like they usually did around each other, Light banter and a few cheeky remarks but besides that it all went down easily.
The next day went by smoothly as well. At night the gang met up at crash.
They were talking away about sketch's latest love interest when Logan walked into crash with Asha in tow.
"well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in" whispered Alec. Surely Logan would know that they would all be there. Why was he trying to show off with Asha? Were they making it public that they were together now?
"The cat probably spat it out after finding out how fowl it tasted" she said mockingly. "Nerds and sluts. Cat's don't go for that"
OC and Alec laughed and a few minutes later Sketchy joined in following the drift of the conversation.
"I think he's trying to show you and Alec up in a 'which couples the best' competition" OC said
"Wanna show em we can kick their ass any day?" asked Max
Alec was surprised at her competitive loathing towards Logan. Ordinarily Max would never want to act like she was with him for anything but she wanted to parade around as if they actually were a couple just to show Logan he had nothing. If someone had told him this was going to happen a year before he would have laughed in their face and told tem to take a trip to psy-ops. "Of course" was all he said.
OC leaned back liking where this was going. All she had to do was give them a little push and the idea formed itself. She leaned back satisfied wanting to watch the show. Sketchy was also anticipating some sort of physical change.
Logan and Asha sat on the other side of crash, but there was a clear view to their table and vice versa. They were holding hands and looking into each others eyes dreamily.
Pathetic thought Max. She turned to Alec and whispered in a tone only he would hear. "I know this may sound odd but wanna make out?"
He grinned at her and replied in the same tone "You wanna show em what an X5 kiss is like?"
She nodded and continued talking normally with the others. She knew exactly when Logan turned to look at them and she acted normal. The second time she felt his gaze on her she smiled at Alec slyly and he leaned in towards her. She also leaned forward and they met halfway across the table. Alec tilted his head and their lips met passionately. Max cupped Alec's face with her small hand and smiled into the kiss. It was controlled unlike the other time but still sweet. To anyone watching it would've looked heated. Sketchy whispered quietly "He's scowling and whispering something to Asha." They continued pashing. Sketchy kept them updated as if he was their eyes but acting like he was talking to OC and Max and Alec making out was natural "Asha just turned to stare at you guys. She just agreed to something Logan said and their leaning into each other"
Max and Alec pulled away and looked at them through the corners of their eyes. They were leaning in so slow that centuries could have passed before their lips met. "They must be going for the pre pulse movie approach" OC laughed
Asha leaned over the table more then she should have and tipped the pitcher of bear that was sitting in the middle. The whole thing went in Logan's direction and poured over his shirt and pants.
Max stifled a giggle, Alec smiled cunningly and OC and Sketchy openly laughed.
"You Fool" OC shouted across the room
Logan got up and practically ran. well hobbled to the men's bathroom shoving people out of the way as he went. Asha sat there by herself looking sulky. Once he was in the bathroom Max and Alec burst into laughter. After it died down he asked "Want to dance, my dear partner in crime?"
"Sure" replied Max.
They got up together and danced slowly to a romantic song that was playing. Alec had his arms around Max's waste and she was leaning into his back fitting perfectly. They swayed side to side to the music. Alec was thinking about how ironic this was. Max was agreeing to dance with him without fussing and they were this close. He felt like kissing her passionately like he had accidentally done that day in Jam Pony but resisted and settled for kissing her on the side of the head. He had perfect timing because at that moment Logan came out with a big wet mark all down his shirt and some on his pants. He'd managed to dry a bit of it but that had just made it worse because now it looked like he had peed his pants. Max's eyes were closed so she didn't notice him but they were facing each other straight on. Logan was looking straight into Alec's eyes with pure hatred. Alec tightened his hands around Max's waste and smirked at Logan. He whispered something into Max's ear which made her smile in ecstasy. This only made Logan madder. This was a personal victory for Alec. Ever since he had met Alec, Logan had implied he was a screw up and needed saving. He always talked down to Alec like he was a small kid instead of a perfectly bread killing machine, and he even sometimes treated him as a charity case which probably made Logan feel even bigger. But now Alec was standing there with Logan's girl in his arms and Logan staring at him jealously looking like he hadn't made it to the bathroom in time. Alec expected Logan to leave after this defeat but he sauntered up to Asha and gallantly asked her if she wanted to dance. After initial repulsion at the way Logan had cleaned up, Asha expression turned giddy and accepted. The guy had balls thought Alec. That or he was just incredibly stupid.
Max opened her eyes and stared at them after Alec told her what was happening. She smiled at him and said "no worries"
Logan and Asha were also dancing slowly but were facing each other. Alec knew Logan was stealing glances at them so he buried his head into Max's neck nuzzling softly. Max giggled lightly. She didn't' know what she was feeling right now. Alec nuzzling her like that bought images of something that could be FAR better then being here. She pushed those thoughts away.
After the slow song had finished a fast one came on. All the couples broke up and started doing hip hop moves. "Logan can't do moves like these" Max said "His techno legs wont let him"
Alec laughed. They started moving expertly to the music. (A/N think 'save the last dance but not as sluttish)
Logan and Asha were standing uncomfortably still in a sea of fast moving bodies. After a few minutes Logan directed Asha back to their table.
Bloody hell what would it take to get them to lose this game? Thought Alec.
Both he and Max knew they were watching them dance. He knew they probably thought him and max wouldn't notice. They were wrong again. X5's notice everything! After some incredibly sexy moves Max slinked up to Alec and gave him a fiery hot kiss. At first Alec was shocked but he recovered as quick as it had happened and no one noticed. He realized what Max was implying. She turned to him seductively and crooked her finger in a 'come here' gesture.
Alec gave up on that dancing and grabbed her hand. He pulled her in for a quick kiss then followed as she led them outside not bothering with anything in crash, not even her jacket.
From the other side of the room Logan's eyes flashed malevolently. He thought he could get the upper hand in this weird informal contest but he couldn't. Now Max and Alec had left to do what he was sure wasn't permitted in the bible. Something he hadn't had a chance to do. Lucky bastard he thought as he thought of Alec. He hastily grabbed Asha's hand and said they were leaving. He dragged her out of crash and he went to his car and told her to find her own ride home momentarily forgetting she lived with him and drove off. "ASSHOLE" He heard Asha shout but ignored it.
Max and Alec smiled in delight as they were hiding in the shadows after quickly pushing their bikes into the bushes and watched the exchange between Asha and Logan.
"Guess everything isn't just dandy in paradise after all" He smirked
Max smirked back.
They waited another ten minutes until Asha had found a ride home then went inside when they were sure it was safe.
They walked over to their table where OC and Sketchy were still seated and had seen the whole thing play out nicely. They high five-d each other then Sketchy and OC.
After a few Victory beers Alec announced he was leaving. Max decided to leave shortly after him signifying to OC that she was going to the Space Needle.
OC watched Max's retreating back with a gleeful smile. She liked the way this was turning out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~
