CHAPTER 3: DENIAL
They stayed holding each other, only for the enjoyment of feel each other close. It was a brief moment, but they felt like it lasted an eternity. They didn't understand what they're feeling, but they couldn't separated. It was liked they belonged to each other's arms. But their stubbornness didn't allowed them to see it straight. They didn't want to admit it.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Max didn't remember when she felt liked this before, to be comforted by someone who accepted you for what you are, no matter what. And it felt good, really good. But, what did it mean? She guessed she wasn't in love with Logan anymore, maybe she never really loved him, but. a big question rounded her mind, *What does Alec mean for me?* A quickly response come to her mind. *Nothing*.
"I need your help Alec. Please, don't leave me alone with this"
*Well, maybe "nothing" is a wrong answer* A little voice inside her head told her. She cares for him, she trusts him most of the time. He's her friend. He's only a friend. isn't he?
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
He hugged her without even a thought. It was liked an automatic response to her plead. And he stayed liked that. well, he felt it was forever. His jacket and part of his shirt's front were soaked with her tears, but it didn't matter to him. All he wanted to know was that she was ok. It was all that matters. Nothing more than that. *But why did I say what I said before?*
"I will never leave you alone, Max. Never"
*For crying out loud, she's my friend!! In fact, my only real friend* He knew he depended on her a lot, liked she depended on him. Yeah, she meant a lot to him. She gave him a purpose in life, she even gave him a name, HIS name. But what he just said sounded like he wanted to be with her. Forever. And he didn't want that, did he? *No, I don't want to be attached to someone else, even if that someone is Max.*
Yeah, that's just the truth. The only one. But then. *why I feel like this right now?*
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Logan was annoyed. The image in the screen made his head spin. Alec was hugging Max. His Max. *How Alec dares to touch her when I can't?* He couldn't hear what they're saying, but an image said more than thousand words. He thought something was wrong with Max, but he didn't expect this. First the conversation he overheard, and now this.
Thankfully he was a genius. He achieved to hack the surveillance system of TC and he discovered all this crap. Well, the fact that he helped Dix to put it in place, didn't really matter. But right now, he had to do something to ruin their "romantic" moment. liked if they really knew what a romantic moment is, he growled. But surely it was Alec's fault. Like always. When something went wrong, it was always HIS fault. Probably Alec was trying to confuse Max. *Yeah. He's trying to separate us. But I won't let him... I won't*
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
A cell rang. Alec's cell. The moment of intimacy was gone and they looked puzzled at each other, not knowing what to do or say. All the feelings they suddenly felt almost vanished, but not at all. It was liked they were day dreaming and abruptly they were forced to go back to reality, leaving only confusion and emptiness. The cell rang and rang until Alec noticed and answered it. "Hello"
"Hi Alec". It was Logan. Alec froze when he heard his voice. During the moment he just shared with Max seconds ago, he totally forgot about Max's significant other. "Hi Logan", he said with a shaken voice, hoping Logan didn't noticed anything weird. At the mention of her loved one, Max hold her breath. How did he know she could be with Alec? 'Cause it was obvious he was looking for her. The ten times he paged her just proved it. But she didn't expect him to call Alec.
"I'm looking for Max. Have you seen her?" Logan could see they were together, but he wanted to play with them, made them felt guilty, ashamed. And he could say by their faces that he was achieving it. He saw that Max was doing some hand signals. A broad smile appeared in his face. *She wants to talk to me after all. She'll tell me that she loves me and Alec is just a mistake. I'll forgive her. And everything's going to be fine. Like it must be. *
Alec's response surprised him. "No, I haven't seen her for the last 2 or 3 hours. We were working together, but now I'm in my room. In fact, I was sleeping like a log (no pun intended) before a noise awaked me. And it was you." He saw in the screen Alec's trademark grin and the anger traveled through him. *LIAR!! And Max's grinning too!! How she dare to give an smile to another man than ME??* He tried to calm down. "Would you tell her that I want to talk to her? The sooner the better"
"Sure Logan. I'll tell her tomorrow morning. And now, if you don't mind, I'll go back to sleep." And Alec just hang the phone.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Max was relieved. She didn't want to deal with Logan right now. Specially after whatever had happened with Alec. "Thanks", she only said. Alec's face was illuminated with a honest smile. "It doesn't matter." He touched her cheek softly and moved to the office's door, leaving Max with a confused face.
"Where are you going?" Max asked with a little hint of anger in her voice. "To my room, I really need to sleep." She didn't notice before, but he really looked tired. She knew it was childish but she didn't want to be alone. Something about this night's events didn't like her. Her face softened when all this thoughts crossed her mind. "We need to finished all the planning, Alec. You know that" *And I don't want you to leave me*.
Her brown eyes begged him to stay. And he stayed. Like always. He couldn't deny anything to her when she gave him a look liked that. And she knew it. "Ok, but remember, I don't have any shark DNA, like certain girl I know. If I fall sleep here it's YOUR fault, and you'll have to carry me to my bed. And maybe share it with me. You know, to keep me warm."
A cocky smile appeared in his face, waiting for Max's usual reaction. But he didn't obtain what he expected. What he found out was a smiling Max without any intention to bodily threaten his manhood. He hold his breath. *Does she seriously consider accepting my proposal? OH MY GOD.*
"In your dreams, pretty boy. In your dreams." He almost fainted when he heard her. *Does she read my mind or what??* "Whoa, no yelling, no threat to kill me or kick my ass, and you're still smiling. who are you and what do you do with Max??"
A laughter filled the room. Max's laughter.
