Chapter 6: Morning after

…………………

Summers house

The sun shinning through the curtains is what woke Buffy up that morning. When she rolled over in her bed she noticed that no one was there but when she looked toward her bedroom door she saw her mom standing there. That's when panic overcame her as she looked around the room and she saw Alec's clothes in the corner of the room under the comfy chair.

"Mom, what are you doing in here?" Buffy asked as she sat up in her bed with nothing but a tank top on.

"Why aren't you up and ready for the school day?" Joyce asked. "You're already late so hop to it young lady," her mother said as she walked out of Buffy's room closing the door behind her.

"Alec," Buffy called quietly. That's when her closet door opened and he jumped out in nothing but his boxers. "Oh thank god," she said as she looked at him. "I thought you left," she said as she walked up to him and hugged him. "It's time to go to school so get ready," she said.

"Buffy like I said before you know I can't stay here," he said as he walked over and out his clothes on. "You know that my standing here put you and your family in danger," he explained as he pulled his shirt over his head. "I don't want to do that," he explained. "I don't want you to get hurt due to my bad judgment," he said.

"I don't care what you think; I can take care of myself. And for your information just living in Sunnydale is dangerous," she said. "We fight for our lives everyday this isn't any different trust me," she said as she walked to her closet and grabbed some clothes to wear.

Buffy pulled on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. "Buffy I want to stay here I do, but I don't want to see you get hurt," he said as he sat on her bed and tied his shoes.

"Then you won't see it," she said as she slipped on some shoes. "Because if you leave don't think for a second that I won't come looking for you," she said as she stood at her door and looked at him. "Because I will and I will find you," she said as she left her room.

Alec grabbed his backpack and climbed out the window so Buffy's mom wouldn't see him. He sat on the roof for a second and thought about what Buffy had said. That's she would come looking for him. If she came to Manticore she would die and there is no doubting that.

Seattle

Max was sitting at Crash when someone tapped her on the shoulder. When she turned around she nearly fell over. She was just about to get up and run when the guy grabbed her. "Max I'm not here to hurt you or to take you in," he said as he looked at her. "I need a favor from you," he said.

"What do you want Lydecker?" she asked as she calmed down.

"I have a soldier missing in Sunnydale California," he said as he looked at her. "I want you to find him and bring him back to me," he said.

"Are you serious? Your expecting me to go find one of you missing soldiers and just being him back to you," she said as she laughed.

"I really don't expect you to bring him back to me but with you at least I know he is safe when Manticore comes after him and trust me they are going to go after him," he said as he looked at Max. "Plus I know you would have a personal interest in this," he said.

"Why?" Max asked confused.

"Because the soldier is 493's twin," he said as he turned and walked away from Max knowing that she would contact him if she wanted the case.
