Inside

Part 7d: The Truth
"Michael what's
wrong, what happened?" Max questioned.
"Gee what ever
could be the problem, how bout the fact you are about ready to
compromise our very existence!" Michael near shouted in
frustration.
"Michael. What... no... calm down." Max said
walking towards his closest friend. "Lets go talk about this."
Max said leading the way with his hand towards the kitchen. Michael
followed Max's on stretched hand toward the kitchen. After Max saw
that Michael was out of ear shot he turned to Liz and Maria.
"Nice
to meet you Maria is it?" Max said shaking her hand.
Maria
nodded in confirmation.
"Liz, I need to deal with this, but
I'll be right back."
"Take your time." Liz said with
an encouraging nod towards the kitchen.
Max walked solemnly
to the kitchen awaiting the death match he was about to enter. As Max
walked in he took in note Michael's protective stance and tried to
make his voice as soothing and controlled as possible.
"Michael,
I don't know what you've heard about the situation or how. But
nothing has been said. Yet."
"What do you mean 'YET'
Maxwell!" Michael said his voice rising yet again.
"I
mean... that I think, no I know I want to tell her."
"What
makes you so sure that her first instinct isn't going to be to call
in the troops and have us experimented on for the rest of our lives!"
Michael stated bluntly, his voice excluding even more. To the point
that Max was positive that the girls in the living room could hear
him.
"Michael lower your voice. Or you will be the one
spilling the secret." Max's tone changing to a hushed whisper.
"Look I'm not saying that I'm going to go out there right now
and reveal it all--."
"Then what are you saying Max.
Because frankly I'm getting sick of this shit!" Michael
interrupted.
"That I think that given time I could trust
her with this. That she's the type of person that would understand
and take it to heart to protect us." Max said in a dreamy tone.
"God help us all you've fallen for her." Michael said
in a discusted tone.
