Just another day in a broken world-Chapter Two
Max sat at the table, once again alone. She glanced over at Alec standing at the bar, getting more beer. She regretted her earlier outburst. Not because it had gotten rid of Alec, but because it had earned her many curious glanced from surrounding Crash-goers. Max lowered her head, staring at the table. Her mind wandered back to the encounter she had, had with Logan earlier in the day.
She had invited him to join them Crash that night, he had refused, something about working with Asha to recover some ancient artefact, which had been stolen. He had passed on spending the night with her to look for some old piece of junk. As much as it irritated her that he had decided to spend the entire night with Asha she found herself slightly relieved he had declined. She was starting to feel chained down in her relationship with Logan. Yes, she had strong feelings for him and always would, but who was she kidding, what kind of relationship could she expect when they couldn't even touch. Certainly not the type of relationship she had ever wanted.
'Turn that frown upside down, cos Original Cindy is joining the party' Said Cindy, a grin on her face as she sat down next to Max.
Max attempted to smile but it turned out more like a grimace. Cindy grimaced too, mirroring Max's expression.
'So it's not a party?' She asked concerned
Max sighed. 'Sorry, I guess I'm kinda off tonight.'
'Logan troubles?' Cindy asked with a knowing expression
Max nodded 'I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth it'
Cindy screwed up her face took you awhile to catch up with the rest of us she thought. But she replied 'Well you had better decide, carrying on like this is just causing pain. For the both of you.'
Max nodded, coming to a decision 'I know, I know. I can't believe I have let this freak show go on for this long. I have to end it.' She stood up 'tonight'.
Cindy nodded, knowing this was something Max had to do. 'Good luck boo' she said to Max.
Max nodded, looking pained. She turned and walked out.
Alec walked back over, and placed the pitcher of beer onto the table. 'Where's she going?' he asked Cindy, extremely curious but doing his best attempted to come across nonchalant.
Cindy cringed, not sure how Max would feel if she told Alec. She paused and shook her head at him.
'Tell me, tell me, tell me' he winged at her giving up his act, and flashing his most charming smile at her.
'Those sugar boy smiles don't work on Original Cindy' she told him while she checked out the tall blonde at the next table.
Alec snapped his fingers in front of her face to get her attention. 'Earth to OC. Come on, how is it gonna hurt to tell your boy Alec?'
Cindy rolled her eyes at him 'You were never my boy but I'll tell you because it's late and Original Cindy is too damn tired to argue with your transgenic ass. Max went to end things with Logan. And not a minute to soon'
A smile crept over Alec's face, as much as he attempted to wipe it off he couldn't. Alec began to blush slightly, a thing he rarely did. Cindy was eyeing him up curiously. Why was he so happy about Max ending things with Logan?
'I've ah, I've got to get going' Alec muttered. Giving Cindy a small smile and heading for the exit. He himself didn't know why this news had affected him the way it had and he certainly wasn't going to stick around and make a fool out of himself.
Cindy sat at the table by herself. The others from Jam Pony had obviously decided against coming. 'Great' she murmured sarcastically to herself. Not one to wallow in self pity, she stood up and grabbed the pitcher of beer, making her way over to the next table and that luscious blonde hot girl.
