"Max, come over later," Alec said, eyebrows raised suggestively. "I'll give you the greatest pleasure you've ever known."
Original Cindy laughed, having overheard this from another aisle of lockers. She poked her head around the corner and saw Max, backed up against her locker, Alec leaning over her and looking down at her predatorily. What the hell is wrong with Max? she asked herself. Then she saw Max smile, almost blush.
"Okay," Max said. The two transgenics smiled at one another. Alec, satisfied that Max would do what he asked, turned to go talk to Normal.
Original Cindy could not believe her ears. She stepped into the aisle and wound her arm back, ready to throw a punch. Before she could strike, Max caught her fist.
"What do you think you're doin'?" Max asked.
"I was just about to ask you the same question, boo," Original Cindy replied. "If you just heard what I heard, then you'd know that you in heat. I'm supposed to hit you really, really hard." OC wound her arm back again, intending to hit her friend.
"It's not what you think," Max said, watching Alec request some time off for himself and Max. "I gotta blaze."
At Alec's apartment later that night, Max sat on his kitchen island, her face slightly flushed after the night's events.
"I didn't know it could be like that!" Max said with a devilish grin on her face. She licked her lips and eyed Alec suspiciously.
"Oh, you liked it?"
"Yeah, it was really, really good. The only thing is: why do my lips feel so sticky?" Max raised her fingertips to her lips and padded them.
"Probably because you tried to fit the whole thing in your mouth at once!" Alec responded, chuckling.
Max looked down guiltily. "Why didn't you tell me you had such a talent?" Max raised her eyebrows in appreciation.
"I told you this morning," he defended. "Don't act like I never told ya." Alec smiled, pleased to see her satisfied.
"As the resident tomcat, I'd have thought you wanted to make all the women purr." Max looked down at his equipment.
Alec noticed her staring. "You want some more?"
Her eyes lit up again. "Yes, please."
"Are you sure? You're gonna be up all night."
"Is that a promise?" Max asked.
"You were right, Alec," Max said after the second serving. "That was the greatest pleasure I've ever known!" She paused momentarily. "How did you get chocolate in this economy?"
"You got a littleā¦" Alec trailed, "smudge of maple syrup on your cheek." He stepped close to her and rubbed it off with his thumb, then licked his thumb clean. "So you love my chocolate banana pancakes?"
