Chapter 19
Max had been very worried when she discovered that her kids school had gone up in flames. When she had gotten to the school, they had told her that her children had been brought home by a soldier. She had been pissed, because she didn't trust goverment soldiers worth a damn. She had rushed home and was climbing up the stairs when she heard someone knocking on the door...her door. She ran faster up the stairs and came face to the back of the soldier and her kids. ''Get away from my kids!!!''
She saw the soldier go ridged, she wondered why, but she quickly discovered why as the soldier turned around. Max could not move...could not speak...could not do anything...because the father of her children stood before her...the man she had believed to be dead for 6 years and was no doubt in her mind, very much alive.
''Your dead!''Max hissed for she could not bring herself to believe that this here was really Alec.
Alec was as shocked as she was. He was shaking uncontrollably and he felt like crying. He had wanted her to run to him, to hold him and tell him that they would be together for the rest of their lives. It was not the case, because he knew Max was as afraid as he was. ''No I'm not'' wispered Alec as he slowly walked towards Max.
Max saw that Alec's hand was shaking slighly as he raised it and stepped closer to her. Silent tears streamed down Max's face. Alec took his tumb and silently brushed it away. ''I'm not'' Alec said again.
Max couldn't couldn't hold back anylonger, because deep down she knew that Alec had a really good reason for why he had stayed away for so long. She rapped her arms around her and she felt Alec shudder with relief. They hugged and kissed and hugged some more and they stayed like that for a long time...but the kids had had about as much yucky stuff as they could handle for the day and they interrupted their parents.
''Mom, this is my dad." Sam said with a smile.
Max could only smile though her tears and hug Alec closer.
"Mom, Dad beat of a bunch of bad guys and he even saved Sam from the fire." Sky told his mom.
Max then looked up into Alec's eye whom had been studying her, "Did you know they were yours?"
Alec shook his head no, "I work for the goverment, they assigned me to Seattle and the call about a fire came in and I went only to find Sky, ready to run back in. I stopped him and went to get Sam. Then the thugs ambushed us and I faught them off then, Sky, smart guy that he is, came to the conclusion that I was an X5 and I came to the conclusion that he was in some way related to one and he then said that his mom's designation was X5 452 and that just about shocked the hell out of me and I asked him who his father was and he said my number...hell...I thought you were dead Max...I thought it for the last 6 years, then this kid tells me that your his mother and that I'm the father. If you ask me, that really almost killed me, to think that you hadn't had any support for the last 6 years. It kills me inside..."
Max felt like crying herself, "But Logan told me you were dead!"
A deadly look came into Alec's face when she told him that, "I'm gona kill him!"
