It was quiet; all you could hear was Max's voice explaining the story of Ben to Alec.
She was just about finished.
"And…. I had to kill him" She finished her story up, just looking straight forward into the fire.
Alec did not know what to say, he wanted to loosen up the mood with a joke, but he knew that would end badly, but he went for it anyway.
"Wow, you must get tired of telling this story, ever think of making a novel, remember what Shirley said, I was making the novel of how to be a jackass." Alec said, hoping she would take it as a joke.
Max looked at him in disbelief, but then she saw he had his fingers crossed hoping that she would not get mad for the joke. She let out a small laugh and rolled her eyes.
To his surprise she was not mad, and for some odd reason it made him feel better to see Max smile.
"Are you ever serious?" She asked him, with a confused look on her face.
"Sometimes, but 6 year olds are not supposed to be serious" Alec replied, mockingly.
Max just laughed and they talked nonsense for a few more minuets, then they finally dosed off to sleep.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Max woke up, she was happy that she had gotten some sleep, but she felt strange. When she looked up she noticed she was in Alec's arms, they must of fallen asleep without noticing it, she panicked, she wanted to slid out of his grip so it was save the both of them the expensive of being totally embarrassed, but he was too late because Alec had awoken.
He looked down at Max, who he was trying to struggle out and said "Well, this is pretty interesting"
She finally got loose and looked at him with a knowing look and said "Don't you dare say anything smart-alecky."
"Well that is my name" He said winking at her and she just shook her head.
They started looking for the rest of the objects, and the time flew by, they bickered and fought, but they managed to be the first team to find all of the objects, the others very close behind.
They were now getting back into the buss heading back "home", and Alec was thinking.
I have to get Max back, despite the fact that were getting closer this war is still on, I have to get her good so I can catch up to her, so I have to make it double or triple point material.
"Ale-494, what are your thinking about" Max asked, almost using his real name in front of one of the guards who was walking down the bus aisle.
"Ah nothing" Alec replied, but the smirk crossing his face told Max he was up to something.
As they got off the buss they had to get back into the Manticore building and resumed their routines as if nothing had happened, luckily it was dinner time so they could all talk.
"So…. What happened" Cami asked Max, with a smirk on her face.
"Nothing! Why must you assume that something happened" Max asked, blush starting to creep onto her face.
Shirley giggled, because just then Alec and Jessie came strolling by.
"Aw Maxie, its okay, you don't have to hide anything from them you can tell them what we did" Alec stated, winking at Max.
Jessie decided to play along "Whoo, way to go Alec" He said, patting him on the shoulder.
Camilla and Shirley had their mouths wide open, believing every word; they looked at Max in disbelief.
Max was angry but still embarrassed so she decided to have to her say " Well, what I remember is that you were trying to make me fall into a hole, but you ended up falling on your ass instead" Max said loudly, so other people started to laugh also.
"Ya well, you better watch your back Maxie, because the next thing I do to you is going to be worth 3 points!" Alec said waving his finger at Max.
"Pftt, you probably can't even count to 3" Max replied, Cami and Shirley high-five-ing her.
"Alright doll face you'll see" Alec replied walking away.
"Wow doll face that's new" Shirley examined while laughing- but she was cut-off when Jessie took a seat next to her.
"What do you want me to call you" He said, putting his arm around her.
She twisted his arm, and it made a cracking sound and replied " Don't go there" He nodded and walked away.
Max thought about what Alec could be planning… but frankly she had to clue.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few days had passes since the whole dinner incident, and her and Alec were speaking, and fighting as normal. But everyone else called it flirting, she heard a knock at her cell door, and said,
"Come in!"
As the door opened she saw Alec standing there with a disappointed look on his face..
"What the hells wrong with you" She asked, she was a little surprised to see him their.
"452, we have been paired up as breeding partners" Alec replied, in a serious tone.
