Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Dark Angel characters. They belong to James Cameron, Charles Eglee, and Fox. But Benjamin, Mackenzie, and any other characters you are not familiar with are mine. Don't own the songs either.
AN: Here's the next chapter... What happened to my reviewers? lol.
"So what do you want to do?" Mackenzie questioned Benjamin as they sat there drinking. "Do you want to talk, drink, listen to music, dance, play a game of pool, or play a game of foosball?"
"I don't know." Benjamin replied. "But we could, talk, drink, and listen to music all pretty much at the same time, so why don't we do that."
"But that gets boring." Mackenzie complained.
"Hey, you asked me what I wanted to do." Benjamin stated.
"True. But I thought you'd want to do something interesting." Mackenzie sighed. A smile came to her lips as a new song started.
Ladies and gentlemen, I've got a little story to tell
About Mona Lisa, And how she suddenly fell (huh)
See everyone knew her, They knew her oh so well
Now I am taking over to release her from her spell
"Benjamin you should dance with me." Mackenzie stated.
"Should I?" Benjamin questioned.
"Yea." Mackenzie replied smiling at him. "Please."
"Fine." Benjamin said standing up, and walking to the dance floor with Mackenzie.
She's unforgettable, she was a legend though
It's kinda pitiful that she's gone
It's kind of incredible
She's so unpredictable
It's time to let her go cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone
"I've heard this song before." Benjamin mused, as they danced.
"Yes you have." Mackenzie replied.
"Where and when exactly?" Benjamin questioned.
"My place a couple years ago." Mackenzie laughed. "You know when I started to really enjoy the older music?"
"I see." Benjamin replied.
She was taken under, drowning in her seat (huh)
Running like an angel, she was crying but could not see (oh no!)
Now see everyone's watching, as she starts to fall
Now don't have a breakdown
You will hit the freakin wall.
She's unforgettable, she was a legend though
It's kinda pitiful that she's gone
It's kind of incredible
She's so unpredictable
It's time to let her go cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone
Now ladies does that make you cry? (huh)
Now fellas you have to say goodbyeee
Cuz Mona Lisa's got to fly
Everyone, may we have a moment of silence? Right here.
God
She's unforgettable, she was a legend though
It's kinda pitiful that she's gone
It's kind of incredible
She's so unpredictable
It's time to let her go cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone
She's unforgettable, she was a legend though
It's kinda pitiful that she's gone
It's kind of incredible
She's so unpredictable
It's time to let her go cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone, cuz she's gone...
The two danced for a few more songs before heading back towards their table and sitting down. "That was fun." Mackenzie smiled.
"To you maybe."
"Oh come on Benji... You like to dance. Admit it."
"I don't like to dance."
"Admit that you like to dance with me Benji."
Benjamin looked at Mackenzie with a bemused look, and said, "Fine I like dancing with you Kenzie."
"How sweet of you to say that." Mackenzie said, giving Benjamin a kiss. "So what do you want to do now?"
"I don't know. Why is it always me who has to decide what to do?" Benjamin questioned.
"Because you always complain about the things I choose to do." Mackenzie replied, grabbing the now empty pitcher out of the middle of the table.
"And you don't complain about the things I choose to do?" Benjamin questioned.
"Sometimes." Mackenzie laughed.
"Uh huh." Benjamin watched as Mackenzie stood up. "What are you doin?"
"Going to get another pitcher. Be back in a sec."
Benjamin nodded as Mackenzie walked away. When Mackenzie came back and sat down Benjamin asked, "So what do you want to do later?"
"You mean after we leave Crash?"
"Yea."
Mackenzie shrugged, "Find a tv, hook it up at the apartment and watch movies."
"Sounds good."
Mackenzie and Benjamin sat at the table and drank and talked about nothing in particular for the next few hours. With a sigh Mackenzie stood up and said, I'll be back in a few."
"Where ya going?" Benjamin questioned.
"Bathroom."
"Oh." Benjamin said as she walked away.
Before Mackenzie left the bathroom she looked at herself in the mirror, she looked tired, and older than she remembered ever looking. 'Maybe it's because I'm stressing over everything to much. I'm sure it'll all work out for the better.' Leaving the bathroom Mackenzie saw Benjamin finishing off the latest pitcher of beer the two had. As she approached the table she saw Benjamin grin, something didn't seem right to her.
"You're beautiful Mackenzie." Benjamin practically slurred.
"Are you drunk Benjamin?" Mackenzie questioned giving Benjamin a weird look. 'Have I been gone long enough for him to get drunk? Yea right, transgenics don't get drunk,' she said to herself. 'But he is drunk. I can see he's drunk. How is this possible? This can't be happening'
"Me? Drunk? Never. That's not possible." Benjamin replied.
"I know it's not possible Benjamin, but I have a feeling you are."
"I'm not." Benjamin simply replied.
With a sigh Mackenzie said, "Benjamin come on I think we better go."
"But Kenzie the party's just getting started."
"I'm tired can we go? Please?" Mackenzie questioned. 'Gotta get him home, hopefully he can sleep this off before anyone notices.'
"Ok." Benjamin sighed.
They left Crash and headed back to Terminal City, Benjamin stumbling along in a drunken stupor, and Mackenzie walking, shaking her head and asking herself why she let this happen.
The walk back took at least twice as long as the walk to Crash had. When they were just outside the door to the apartment Benjamin asked, "Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?"
"Yes you have. At least ten times in the past five minutes."
"Oh. Hey are we going to find a tv and get some movies like you said we would before?"
"I don't think so." Mackenzie replied.
"Why not?"
"I'm tired." Mackenzie simply replied.
When Mackenzie opened the door, she was met by Alec. "Uh...hi," she smiled, walking over to the couch, dragging Benjamin along with her.
"Hi. How was the date?" Alec questioned.
"It was not a date." Mackenzie stated, bitting her lip.
"Well then, what was it?" Alec asked raising an eyebrow.
"Two people enjoying each others company." Mackenzie sighed.
"Sounds like a date to me." Alec smirked.
"Does not! It was non-relationship involved and definitely non-sexual." Mackenzie replied. It really couldn't be considered a 'date', could it?
"Heheh... you said sex." Mackenzie's head shot around to look at Benjamin. He had an amused, yet stupid look on his face, that in a way Mackenzie found cute.
"Is he..."Alec was cut off by Mackenzie.
"Drunk? Yea, he's drunk."
"I'm not drunk." Benjamin stated.
"Yes you are. Go to my room, and lie down. You're going to need the sleep."
"Yes ma'am." Benjamin replied, giving Mackenzie a mock salute, and disappearing into the bedroom.
"How is that possible?" Alec questioned. "Transgenics don't get drunk. A little tipsy, maybe, but not drunk. Or at least not that I know of."
"I know I've been asking myself the exact same question. Either he drank way more than I thought he did, or it's the ordinary in him."
"Well how much do you think he drank?"
"Uh..." After a few seconds Mackenzie said, "It's the ordinary in him. Max would kill me if she found out I let Benjamin get drunk."
"She probably would." Alec agreed. "I better get going, though, I just stopped by to say hi. And don't worry I won't tell Max."
"Fine go, and leave me with the drunk." Mackenzie mumbled.
"Sorry it's getting late. Got some things to do. Have fun." Alec smiled as he left the apartment.
Sighing Mackenzie walked over the bedroom and looked in. Benjamin was sprawled out on the bed.. She walked into the room, pulled the comforter from underneath him, and put it on top of him. Mackenzie kissed the top of his forehead and then left the room, closing the door behind her. She walked over the couch and lied down, pulling the blanket, from the back of the couch, over top of herself.
Tomorrow was going to be interesting, last day before the supply run that could change everything. That and she was going to have to tell Benjamin he managed to get himself drunk. Closing her eyes Mackenzie soon drifted off to sleep.
