Alright Chapter 2! A lot happens here. This chapter was originally supposed to be a little longer but I felt maybe I'd be throwing too much at ya'll at one time. So I split it into two different parts. So the other half will be presented in chapter 3. But for now I hope you guys enjoy the second chapter! J

The two remained still, obviously still in shock from seeing one another after all this time. The redhead stood still not taking her eyes off her once boyfriend. Max sat stunned gazing at his former lover. He couldn't help but think as he took in the sight of her to himself, 'She's beautiful', he thought.

'Roxanne had similar thoughts herself looking at him.

'He's still as cute as ever' she thought to herself.

She then noticed the others in the booth staring as to the awkwardness that was going around. She then remembered that she had a job to do. She put her pen to her notepad.

"What would you guys like to drink?" She asked.

"I'll take a raspberry lemonade", Ava said.

She jotted it down in her notepad to PJ who gave her his drink order. Meanwhile, Max continued to look at his first love. He couldn't believe she was actually here. And she looked so different, but retained those brown eyes he knew only could belonged to her. He drank in her appearance. As well as her figure.

'Man she is so curvy', he thought. 'She looks amazing. She must workout or something. And her…wait why am I thinking about this way about my ex?'

"Max…Max?"

"Huh?"

Max snapped out of his thoughts looking to see Roxanne and the others staring at him.

"What would you like to drink?" Roxanne asked again.

"Ohh I'll have a cola…uhh… thank you", he replied.

"You're welcome. I'll be back in a minute with your drinks and to take your orders."

She moved quickly to the back to fetch the drinks for the group. Max couldn't help but notice her hips swaying as she walked away. Her turquoise dress fluttered as she moved. He couldn't take his eyes off her since he saw her.

"Max?" PJ tapped him on the shoulder.

"Huh…What's up Peej?"

"You okay man?"

"Yeah bro", Bobby popped in. "You got the googly eyes going on dude".

"Ye…yeah I'm f..fine", he stuttered.

"Who's that girl?" Ava asked turning her attention to Max. "And why does she have you so flustered?"

"W…wh…what? I'm not ff…flus…flustered", Max stammered.

Ava looked at Max completely unconvinced. He was shaking and stuttering like a nervous child. Max sighed knowing he had been caught.

"That's Roxanne…she's my ex", he answered.

"Ohh man. No wonder I was feeling some weird shakra going on between you two".

"I haven't seen her in about a year. I thought I'd never see her again".

"See who again?" A voice spoke.

Max head whirled around to find a girl with short brown hair, blue eyes, a cute button nose with a cute mole on her cheek. She was wearing dark blue denim jeans, a green tank top and black flip flops. It was none other than Max's current girlfriend Mona. Max rose from sitting to embrace her and give her a quick peck on the lips.

"Ohh just…umm just an old friend I ran into", Max spouted quickly.

"Ohh really? Who?" Mona asked intrigued.

"Uhh her name is Roxanne. We went to high school together." Max answered. He wouldn't dare tell his girlfriend that he ran into his high school sweetheart.

"Ohh that's nice! I'd like to meet her", she said sweetly.

Max smiled at his girlfriend and wrapped an arm around her. She was a real sweetheart. He knew he was very lucky to have her. Max couldn't help but feel guilty for not telling her the truth about Roxanne though. But he wanted to avoid any unnecessary awkwardness, so he avoided telling Mona that Roxanne was his ex.

"Sorry that I'm late. I got caught up at work", Mona brushing the hair in her face to the side.

"It's okay babe", Max said. As he went to lean in to kiss her, he pulled back once he saw Roxanne returning with their drinks.

Mona had noticed but didn't really pay it much mind. She probably figured it was because he didn't want to make the waitress uncomfortable.

Roxanne comes over and takes the drinks off the tray she held with her left and served the drinks with her right.

"Here are your drinks you guys. Are we ready to order?" she asked. And she then noticed the brown hair girl that was now there. "Ohh hello. I'm sorry what would you like to drink?"

"Ohh it's not trouble", she replied. "I'll have an ice tea. And I'll save you the trip from coming back, I'll have the three cheese chicken penne with a salad, please". she said as she scanned the menu.

"You got it. Thank you very much", Roxanne smiled. "How about the rest of you?"

After she had taken their orders the food would come awhile later. The group would talk, share stories and a couple of laughs over their meal. Occasionally Max would see Roxanne moving about bussing table and serving customers. He couldn't help but look at her when the opportunity presented itself. Why was he so infatuated with her? Why was his attention so transfixed on her?

"Max?"

The voice of his girlfriend snapping him out of his thoughts. He looks at her as she stares concerned.

"Are you okay? You looked like something was troubling you". She asked softly.

Max smiled at her and grasped her hand. "Yeah I'm fine, Mona. I was just thinking about sophomore year starting next week."

Mona smiled back and squeezed his hand back. "Eager to get back to work, Mr. College X-Games king?"

Max chuckled at this, "I can honestly say I'm excited to compete again. One thing I won't miss is how it will take away my time from you", he grinned flirtatiously.

Mona blushed, "Max…", she said sheepishly.

"Alright, alright love birds get a room", Bobby teased.

"Don't forget we're here too you guys", Ava added as PJ smirked.

This caused the couple to blush. This was interrupted when they heard a glass shattering, which grabbed their attention and everyone else's in the diner.

The diner was busy at this time which was no surprise, it was always liked this around dinner time. Roxanne kept pace pretty well, serving customers with a warm smile and a cheerful demeanor. It was the side of her that loved to help and serve others that shined through. As she worked tirelessly, her thoughts were brought back to seeing her ex boyfriend, Max Goof. The last time she had seen him was just last summer. After they had broken up, seeing him again at the House of Mouse. It looked as if they might get back together. But, they never reconnected after that. Not that it surprised Roxanne, that had been her decision after all. While starting over with him seemed like it was a great idea and she wanted it more than anything, but a sense of doubt creped into her mind. Something held her back from just running back into his arms and starting anew. And she knew what it was. But it hurt her too much to talk about.

She sighed to herself as she cleaned off an empty table and restocked the condiments basket. Her shift was winding down and she was just helping get set up for the others.

She picked up some empty glasses and plates placing them on her tray to take them to the kitchen. As she turned to make her way to the back she accidentally bumped into someone in front of her, she was able to maintain control of the dishes without dropping them.

"Ohh I'm sorry", she apologized before looking up to see who she had run into. Once she saw who it was she felt her stomach drop.

"Ohh no problem babe", the man said.

He was fairly tall, with a slightly muscular build. He had slicked brown hair, blue eyes and was wearing designer jeans and a black long sleeved shirt that showed off his physique and a pair of black tennis shoes. Roxanne recognized him immediately and she shuddered at the shear sight of him.

"What are you even doing here?" She asked rather annoyed.

"What? A guy can't come say hello to his girlfriend?" He asked with arrogance dripping from his voice.

Roxanne sighed and replied, "For the last time Jake, I am not your girlfriend. We broke up. It's over. There is no more us."

"Still playing hard to get huh? It's cool. I happen to like the thrill of the chase", he smirked.

Roxanne just rolled her eyes. She really just wanted to him to go away. He was like a bad lingering smell that just wouldn't go away.

"Come on Roxy! When you gonna stop playing these games and give some play?" He said the last part lowering his voice in a seductive manner.

Once again Roxanne shuddered in disgust. "Not on your life. As if I'd ever do that with someone like you", she said angrily.

He frowned at this response. Clearly that wasn't what he wanted to hear. As Roxanne went past him to the kitchen, Jake saw it as a opening. He proceeded to smack Roxanne's ass. This startled her causing her to drop the kitchenware she was holding and shatter as it hit the ground. Roxanne groaned before furrowing her brows and turning toward Jake with anger on her face. Her blood began to boil. She very rarely got mad. She was always very reserved, shy and very calm. But for her enough was enough.

"What the hell is your problem!?" She shouted.

"Hey babe chill. It's not that big of a deal. Now come on", he wrapped his arms arm her waist. "Let's get out of here and go somewhere", he said lowly.

Roxanne squirmed in his grasp, trying to wiggle free from him. But he was just to strong.

"Let me go Jake! Stop it!" She raised her voice.

This caught the attention of everyone in the diner.

"Hey buddy let her go!" One customer shouted.

"Yeah what's your deal?" A woman said.

Soon others were joining in to chastise his actions. Then fellow coworkers and a man in a white dress shirt and black slacks come from the back to confront him. It was clear he was the manager.

"Excuse me sir", he said approaching Jake. "I'm gonna have to ask you to leave. You're not welcome here."

Jake smirked keeping a hold of Roxanne. "Yeah? And you gonna make me move huh?" He mocked.

"I'll call the cops", the manager said firmly.

Jake laughed at this notion. "Ohh I'm shaking. We were just leaving anyway. Come on Roxy".

He began to drag her off by her arm toward the door. That was until he was met by a right hand that knocked him back and dropped him on the floor. As he laid there trying to get his wits about him. As his vision became less blurred he looked up to see Roxanne being comforted by a black haired boy with buck teeth wearing a red t-shirt and denim jeans. The boy was none other than Max Goof.
