Max, the amazing!!

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

"Come in" Haley yelled from her kitchen.

"Hey" Brooke said a little less than chirpy.

"Hey, I thought you were giving up knocking on the door."

"Oh yah I forgot, I'll start tomorrow."

"Are you alright? You don't seem your normal chipper self today."

"I'm fine, I'm just really not in the mood today. It's just one of those days."

"Oh well I'm sorry, How bout we go grab a coffee and a bagel, on me."

"What happened to your death juice, I thought you were all about your own coffee."

"Oh well my coffee machine broke." Haley said looking for a reason to go to the coffee shop.

"Yah Haley, don't try to fool me, You forget that I know you like I know the back of my hand. You want to see if Mr. tall, Dark and Handsome is going to be there." Brooke said as she pointed an accusatory finger at her.

"No, that's not it. Now let's go so we won't be late for work."

"Whatever happened to letting fate bring you too together?" Brooke questioned as Haley dragged her to the door.

"It's still fate, just with a little bit a push, that's all."

"Whatever you say."

"Ok Brooke, Do you see him?" Haley said as she scanned the crowded coffee shop.

"No but Haley we got to get going, or else we're going to be really late for work."

"Ok Ok, here's some money, you go get your coffee, I'm going to wait here by the door in case he comes in."

Brooke rolled her eyes at Haley desperation and continued on her way to get her coffee.

10 minutes later

"Alright, I got my coffee, Is loverboy around?"

"No he's not here, maybe if we wait a few more minutes."

"HALEY!!!NO!!! We got to get to work now!!!"

"Ok fine let's go."

"Oh Max!!!!" Haley yelled in a sing song voice as she came in from work. Max quickly lifted his head up at the sound her voice and ran over to greet her. "You want to go for a walk, Let's go for a walk." Haley said as she started paying with his ears.

Max quickly gave Haley a quizzical gaze. For as long as he could remember he always had to beg and plead for Haley to take her out. Never has it been this easy. Max was no dummy though, he didn't ask any questions (not that he could). He just ran with it and took advantage of Haley's Enthusiasm.

Haley and Max were jogging in the park for what seemed like hours. Even Max was getting his fill of the outside breeze. Haley was just about to give up her search until that is Mr. Tall, Dark Handsome came rounding the corner. Haley again took notice of his strong physique and smiled in his direction in hopes that he would notice her, but no such luck. This called for reinforcements.

When the object of Haley's affection had his back facing her, Haley stopped jogging and kneeled down to whisper to Max. "Ok Max, this is what you're going to do. You see that guy right there, I'm going to let you off your leash and you're going to start jogging along side him. Then, I am going to come and be like 'oh max, I didn't know where you were, let's go.' But you're not going to go no matter what, just stay there ok? You got it?" Now normal dogs would have looked at Haley with a blank expression. Max however was far from what you would consider a normal dog. He was just as smart as any human being if not smarter. He knew exactly what he needed to do and he was on a mission. "Alright, now go!" Haley said and Max made his way to the man.

Mr. Tall Dark, and Handsome was jogging right along when he noticed Max jogging along side him. He just let the dog continue jogging thinking nothing of it until he noticed that the dog had been jogging with him for nearly 10 minutes. With this realization, the man stopped and kneeled by the dog. "hey boy, where's your owner?"

"Max!" Haley yelled from behind them. The man and Max both looked up to see Haley running towards them. "I didn't know where you went, you scared me half to death." Haley began petting Max's head when she looked up to see HIM, "I'm sorry was he bothering you?"

"No not at all, I was just about to figure out, if he had an owner around here or not."

"Well thanks, for taking care of my boy for me." With that Haley gave the man a smile and began to pull on Max's leash so that he would move but with great discipline Max stayed where he was, not moving an inch. "Max come on let's go."

Max started to whimper and moved himself on the other side of the man. Man was this Dog good. "Um, I don't think my dog wants to leave you." Haley said with a chuckle. "I think he likes you."

"Well Max ain't too bad either." The man said with a smile that could make any girl melt. The man quickly went back down on his knees and started talking to Max. "Ok boy why don't you go with-, I'm sorry what's your name?"

"Haley."

"Ok why don't you go with Haley and maybe I'll see you cruising the park again." Nathan said as he quickly rubbed Max's head.

"Thanks-"

"Nathan." Nathan pulled his hand out for Haley to shake.

"Thanks Nathan, well I guess Max and I will see you around."

"Yah I guess so, bye Haley, bye Max." With that both Haley and Nathan went in their own separate directions. Haley was grinning from ear to ear.

"You know Max, you keep this up and you'll be eating prime rib for the rest of your days."
