Chapter 4Alec leaned against the doorframe of Max's room and watched her just walk around the room she's beautiful. A cheeky grin crossed his face as he thought about her, but then she turned and caught him staring at her.
This room is so nice; I mean it looks like a room fit for a queen. It's even got it's own luxury bathroom, perfect and sparkling clean. Unlike the cockroach I found in the bath at my house. The view out the window was of the entire garden and patio; in the distance she could see the long white beaches. Max turned to find Alec still there in her room staring at her with this cheeky but cute grin on his face. Before she could say anything Alec had looked away, bright red and trying to pretend he hadn't been watching her.
"Nice room eh?" Alec managed to mumble out.
"Yeah its lovely, I wish I could live here all the time" Max replied not feeling like commenting on him looking at her before.
"Same here" Alec whispered it so quietly Max almost couldn't hear what he said, and before she could ask he was gone. Max looked once over her room and then headed downstairs to see if she could score some alcohol. Just as Max got out the door though, Logan bumped into her great Max thought now she was in for it.
"I want to talk to you about your rude behaviour this evening" Logan said. He sounded really like her father or something and she just felt like punching him. What am I thinking, I love Logan, I really do
" Oh I'm really sorry about the trifle, I mean who would a thought it would of gone flyin' so far?"
"I don't want you talking to Alec any more"
"What?"
"I said I don't want you talking to Alec"
"You don't rule who I can and can't talk to" Max glared at him.
"So you do fancy him!"
"Huh? I don't fancy him!"
"Then why do you want to talk to him then?"
"Oh…. well…. err… To make a point, that you don't rule ME" Max stomped her foot on the last word and stood firm.
"Fine then!" Max smiled at her win and was about to leave when "I think we should have an early night tonight lots to do tomorrow" Logan smiled at her and it just repulsed her even more. Max knew for a fact she wouldn't win this fight…she never did.
Alec could never sleep at this house not since…. He didn't even want to think about it. It was around two in the morning and Alec was lying outside on the grass, it was still warm though strangely enough. Alec just looked up into the stars and imagined life without Logan would be like heaven.
Max awoke all of a sudden, sweat dripping from her features and the covers were sticky and hot. Max wiped her forehead, it was just another nightmare, and she had been having a lot of them recently. Max went over to open her window but as she did so she noticed someone on the lawn. No not just someone, it was Alec.
A small breeze went across the lawn and sent a shiver straight down his spine. Alec looked round as if knowing that Max would be there, and as he stared straight at her brown eyes he slowly stood and moved over to her.
Max didn't really know what she was doing she just seemed to end up in the garden Alec's eyes were locked with hers and she could feel her heart to start beating faster the nearer he came. Alec looked just like a predator stalking his prey, his lips were now only inches from hers their eyes were still locked but she closed them as she felt his breath mingling with hers. Their lips touched, it was so soft but it felt so good, Alec's arms went around her waist pulling her closer and her hand went up into his hair as they started deepening the kiss. Max opened her mouth inviting in but just as he was about to put his tongue in her mouth she jumped back away from him, like she had an electric shock. But that was the problem she did have a shock, but not a painful one, it was just pure pleasure. Max wouldn't let herself feel that, she was supposed to be with Logan, she was supposed to feel things like that with only Logan. Max looked up at Alec's shocked and questioning expression and tried to remember the last time she had felt so good, but she couldn't remember ever feeling like that. She had felt so safe and happy in Alec's arms and now she felt cold and empty being away from him.
"Sorry but I…um…don't think we should be doing this I mean…. um…. I'm with Logan" Max looked away not wanting to meet his eyes.
Alec put his hand up and pushed away a loose hair on Max's face, her startled eyes from the touch looked directly at him.
"No need to apologise, Logan always has better things from me anyway. You wouldn't want me anyway you probably live in those skyscrapers in luxurious apartments anyway… I'm below you" Alec felt his heart squeeze as she looked at him confused at what he said. He didn't tell her Alec couldn't bear to look at her anymore and he started to walk back to the house.
"What do you mean?" Confusion spread through her from what he said. What did he mean he was below her? Did he think she was richer than him, he wouldn't be talking about that I mean he lives here, doesn't he.
"Nothing" He whispered just audible for her to hear and then he left. Max stood there for she wasn't sure how long, just staring at the empty doorway where he had been, and then she went to bed plagued with questions about Alec. Who is he really?
