"Just another night in a broken world."
Max strolled along the water line with her hands in her pockets, letting the icy fresh wind brush across her face. She took a deep breath and let out a sigh, which seemed as though she was holding her breath for years. Blu moved closer to her from the back, his hair waving about creating shadows on the barely visible beach sand.
"No, not just another night in a broken world ... it's just another special night in a broken world."
"Why I don't get what's so special, well it's not raining if that's what you mean."
She stopped to turn and face him in the moonlight. Everything seemed so quiet and normal at that moment, as though she had never felt this way before.
"Well that too, but don't you feel it? Perfection in a broken world something impossible is possible now."
"You're quiet the philosopher aren't you?"
"Well you could say that...I guess it's just that I feel that's all. Stand here, closer to me and tell me what you feel."
He held her by the shoulders and gently moved her closer to him. Max was unusually comforted by his touch. She willingly came closer than necessary, moving her hair away from her face.
"Tell you what I feel when?"
"Just close your eyes and you'll know when."
Blu held her hand as she closed her eyes; slowly he moved his hand up her arm till it was touching her face. He lowered his head and stopped when their foreheads were touching. She opened her eyes, and looked thoughtfully into his dark brown soul bearing eyes.
"I feel something if that helps?"
Max smiled and moved her head closer to his ad subtly kissed his upper lip. Blu did not object and in turn pecked her cheek and moved in for a heart felt kiss that felt as though they had never been felt or kissed anyone before, a new awaking of senses. He rubbed his thumbs on her temples as they kissed passionately; his two metal thumb rings gave her a smooth warm feeling that seemed to spread through out her body. Neither wanted to separate from the other, it felt so right. They eventually moved, foreheads still touching and still breathing as one.
"Now I definitely felt that."
"Special right? It wasn't what I was actually aiming for but it'll do."
"What were you aiming for?"
"A second date really soon."
"That's all?"
"Yep, I'm not like other guys you see I'm what you could call... special."
"Well you certainly aren't. Could we do some thing tonight I don't usually do this but this is a special night."
She held his hand and they both sank onto the warm sand...
Next Morning Alec's placeMegan lay asleep in his bed. Alec woke up off the couch with a sore back, being the 'gentleman' he is he naturally offered her his bed and she accepted. He ruffled his hand through his hair and slowly peeked his head through the bedroom door to watch her sleep for a few minutes before work. He did the usual (bath get dressed....) very quietly and then wrote her a note and left in on the fridge.
Megan
I had to go to work, you know. It was good catching up, I want you to stay with me so I'll come back at two and we can do a bit more talking and then I'll take you to get some stuff and meet some people.
Love Alec
He Snuck out and rode off to Jam Pony a tad late (we all know Normal wouldn't care that he came at that time and was planning to leave 2hrs early, if only he knew what it was for...), when he got there Normal who was looking flushed suddenly forgot his worries and struck up another stupid conversation with Alec about a dream he had last night. OC strutted over to them with her usual, just answer my question and then piss off attitude that she usually reserved for Normal especially when he was having a terrible day.
"Yo! You two seen Max?"
"No, But you can be sure to tell her for me that she's fired!"
"Now, Now, Normal don't be hasty I'm sure my old friend Maxi has a good reason for being late, Isn't that right OC?"
"I wouldn't know cause she didn't come home last night, she left me last night
when I was putting my best moves on a pretty blond at the bar."
Just then Max and Blu strolled in looking very happy and dreamy like they just woke up, and... Let me just stop to say:
Get Your Minds Out Of The Gutter, They Did Not Do It! Vous Etes Tres Mal! Thank you for you co-operation. This broadcast was brought to you by Flaming Blu Dragon Corp.
Max walked to her locker not noticing the looks she was getting from the counter, Blu on the other hand went right up to Normal, looked him straight in the eye and yanked a package from his hands, then walked out. OC stalked over to max with a very quizzical look on her face.
"I have one question to ask."
"What's that?"
"Did my boo get some when she left Crash last nigh without telling me?"
"Sorry you were so into you know... that I couldn't find the right time so we just... split."
"Just split. Yeah, right did I tell you that my birthday was yesterday ?"
"No, I swear we just went to the beach, took a walk and then ... wekissedthenfellasleeponthebeachandweonlywokeupthirtyminutesago."
Max shoved some things into her locker, spun around and attempted to run away, but OC caught her by the shoulder.
"I'm sorry I didn't get the last bit. Could you repeat that?"
"We...Uh...We kissed then fell asleep on the beach and we only woke up thirty minutes ago. I know what you are gonna say, that it was just last week that I was pining over Logan and now I'm running around kissing boys that I just met yesterday.'
"Actually I was gonna say that I think it's good you're getting on with your life, and at least you got some proper face friction after so many months. And no, last week with Logan does not count. Oh! One more thing you're soooo gonna get some!"
Max just ignored that last bit and went on a run to sector 4. When she got back Blu was just about to leave on a hot run. They passed each other and couldn't help looking, which caused quiet a bit of chaos. Blu walked into a group of bikers who were just coming in (Ouch!) and Max walked square into a pillar (That's gonna leave a mark) not to mention the noise and damage to those bikers.
Alec arrived home to silence.
"Megan? Hello!"
Megan was standing behind the door waiting, and then she jumped onto his back. He held her legs so she wouldn't slip. She kissed him then stood back to survey his face. Alec grinned.
"I missed doing that, but now that I've found you and we're out it's different...better."
"I know, one day I want to do what we always said we would."
"That's why we need to go and clear this little thing and get you some documents. How did you move from place to place all this time?"
"A lot of sneaking around, punching and bruising."
"You know I thought you had actually died on the mission you were on, I was given another breeding partner."
"I was badly hurt, for a few months they did tests and we all know what happened after that."
"Yeah, thank Manticore for Max."
"Who?"
"You'll meet her now come on."
They left to see Alec's old friend Logan. He stopped to page Max, who was in the company of her new interest. They were having supper in Blu's apartment, which wasn't as lavish as Logan's Pad but it had a quality that Max really liked.
"How long have you lived here?"
"Oh! Well not that long, so can I get you any thing else or can we take a walk?"
"A walk would be good."
They moved along the pavement for at least a half an hour, which were spent exchanging looks and grinning at each other. Just being around each other sent adrenalin surging through their veins all this energy had to go somewhere.
"Blu, I know this is gonna sound stupid but how 'bout a race."
"What do I win?"
"Another date."
"Ok, pick the building and that's where we stop."
"What do I win?"
"A surprise."
Max pointed at a really tall building that was not really visible, that's how far away it was. They assumed the position...
"Ready to loose Blu."
"Remember I'm special..."
"One,"
She began to count thinking this is where we tell if he will really be able to handle all of me. She was poised to move the way she was taught to, this is where Manticore would aid here or ail her.
"Two, Three!"
And they were off Max pushed hard and drove her self to full speed, she didn't know if she wanted to but she had to. She turned her head to her left where Blu had been standing, she wanted to see the look on his face when he realised what she was. She knew he wouldn't be rung along side her (I mean common) she turned to look back expecting to see him in the distance, but he wasn't there she turned back around to look ahead. She definitely didn't know if she was seeing right. There was a blur of colours running between buildings jumping over fences and sliding under other obstructions.
"No, I'm loosing it 100."
She ran attempting to catch up which she did almost; well let's just say at least she wasn't a mile away. She screened the figure which was clearer now, what could be seen were two silver thumb ring blurs and the rest was just a blue blur of denim topped off with a flurry of dark brown hair which looked black in the light. Finally it came to a stop outside the entrance of an apartment building, Max caught up in 10sec.
"I think you owe me another date. And because I'm such a cool guy I'll tell you what the surprise is...I'm Manticore X5 368.You are 452 aren't you?"
"How d- I don- but you- Just wait a min- No- I..."
He got a grip of her and looked her in the eye.
"What's changed? We're still the same people we were when we met. There's nothing to comprehend, we just have more things in common."
Just then Alec Paged, Max called immediately. He wanted her to meet him at Logan's he had a sort of emergency. She gripped Blu by the wrist and broke into a run to Logan's place, 5 buildings away.
When they got there Logan was waiting expectantly near the door. Alec made him self at home (nothing unusual) and Megan was scribbling something down on a pad. Max took one look at Logan's where have you been I am your master you are not to have feelings for anyone but me face and she instantly felt nauseous.
"What was the big emergency?"
"Well nice to see you too Max, I'm fine thanks for asking."
"I don't think she asked how you were doing, but hey what ever you gotta do to make your self feel special and help you sleep at night."
"What is he doing here?"
"I brought him, Alec meet X5 368."
"That's where I know him from!"
"Where have you been? We've been paging you for 20min!"
"We were out."
"Well we have an emergency and you're out having fu-"
"Logan, Shut up! Every thing's an emergency to you. Oh! Max some corrupt politician left his toenail clipper lying out. Society as we know it is in danger! Get a Life would you."
Alec sniggered in the back, but seeing as he needed Logan's help this wasn't the time to make his amusement too obvious. So he got between Max and Logan.
"Max it's not really an emergency it's just that we have a bit of a muddle right now. And we do need as much help as we can get."
See I did update, yes I know I'm you Hero no need to thank me. Only joking I'm not that conceited. So what do you think? Please Review, just a little thing you'd probably like to know, my spelling's dodgy even with spell check, so just mind me. And I know that I say this more than I should but this whole thing is and will always be dedicated to a special friend of mine.
