Chapter 6: When I knew you where the one

Cabin in the woods

Max and Alec still sit in the cabin, neither moving; yet they both know that they should. Because the longer they wait, it is the longer they are without their son…without their world. Alec never thought he could become so emotionally attached to another human being…not since Rachel. But then Max came along and changed all that.

They started off on the wrong foot. With him barging into her cell telling her that they where breeding partners, then he with held information about Max carrying a virus that would kill Logan with only one touch. Then after they escaped he got him self in a jam. He needed to kill three transgenic in order to stay alive. When he got to the last one, it was Max and he could kill her…no matter how much he loved himself…he could never hurt her.

"What are you thinking about?" Max's voice snapped him out of his thoughts…out of his memories.

He turned and looked at her…really looked at her. He noticed that she looked tired. She had bags under her eyes that he hadn't seen there since her days at Manticore…those short days when he actually saw here that. She has been chasing me even though we both know that we should be chasing our son. Am I the one causing her this tiredness…this agony of not seeing her beloved baby boy? Alec asked himself as he continued to stair at the women in front on him…the women he loves. Hoe did I ever live with out her?

"Yo…earth to Alec," Max said waving a hand in front of his face. "What's up with you?" she asked concerned.

"Just thinking," he said, as his eyes didn't move away from her. "I love you," he said suddenly.

Max looked a little taken back by the suddenness of that statement but she quickly recovered. "I love you too," she said. "What's wrong Alec?" she asked him and he continued to look at her. "Are you feeling alright?"

"You want to know when I realized I was in love with you?" he asked. Max just sat there looking at him wondering why on earth he was talking about this. He continued before she could respond to his question. "It wasn't that night you told me about Ben, it wasn't the night I saw you run back to the place that held you prisoner just to save the man you loved." He paused thinking back to the day. "It wasn't the night you saved my sorry ass," he said with a smirk, Max looked away hiding her own smirk as he looked at the sky.

"Alec…" Max started.

"No let me finish…I want you to know how I feel." He said interrupting her.

"Sorry…" she said.

"It was when you and me where trapped in the closet. Waiting of the security guards to change shifts do we going steal the Star Wars movie. I remember you wanted it so you could pay Logan back or something." He paused. "I asked you if it was all worth it…if he was worth the trouble…if he rocked your world. And you said that you weren't like that. Well it showed me that you where willing to go to and length just to get something for the man you love…not just because of how he was in bed…but for what kind of person he was." He looked at her…those hazel eyes burning into her soul. "From that day on I did what I could to make you see me as a better person. I cut down on my women…I didn't go on as many heists…I changed…and I changed for you." He said with a smile. "You know Maxie…you left a big impression on me…you are the one that made me want to change."

"Alec you have always been a good man…I just never wanted to admit it." She said as she looked at him sadly. "You wanna know when I feel in love with my smart ass," she said with a smile. He smiled back at her and looked at his shoes before he returned his gaze to her. "It was the night I told you that I lied to Logan about what kind of relationship we had. I remember…you where pissed." She said as it was her turn to look up at the ceiling. "I thought you where just some smart ass who would do anything to make me mad…but you never did tell Logan…by the way thanks for that. Anyways you came by Crash and sat at the table with me and I saw in your eyes that you would indeed do anything to help me." He returned her gaze to him. "And then you grabbed my hand and it was instant sparkage…from that moment on you where always on my mind…even when I did go back to Logan." She finished. "I love you Alec and nothing is ever going to change that." Max said as she took his face in her hands and kissed him softly…lovingly.

When Alec pulled away to look into her eyes he had on one of his classic smirk that Max has missed. "Now what do you say we…together….go find our son." Alec said.

"I think that is a great idea," Max finished and she stood up. Alec followed suit. Just as Max was about to walk out the door she turned and saw Alec still standing there looking dazed. She walked past him and took his hand. Together they walked off to find their son…together as one…they would bring hell to the person that took the thing they created. Because when it comes right down to it…you never mess with a transgenic baby…after all they where part animal.
