Chapter 11......
Firstly I would like to thank you all the people that review and read this.
I hope you enjoy this chapter and review!
Two months later Chris orbs into a dark room.
"Hey sleepy," He greets as he slips his clothes off just leaving his boxers on and glides into the bed and rests his hand on a toned stomach.
"Where've you been?" A voice asks, Chris runs his hand through the others blonde hair.
"Max," Chris pouts at him, as Max pulls Chris closer gripping at his hip. Chris kisses Max' shoulder gently, making him giggle and push him back a bit so he can look into his eyes.
Where have you been.....Max thinks
Demons....Chris thinks
"I need some distraction now," Chris says huskily, sucking on Max' shoulder, making him moan, Chris puts his leg in between Max' and begins to rub it making his knee cause friction between Max' boxers and Chris' skin. Max drags a hand through Chris' hair grabbing him closer and attaching his lips to Chris', Max slowly slips his tongue into Chris' mouth expertly roaming around. Chris trails his hands down to the waist band of Max' boxers, Chris slips his hand inside and grips Max tightly. Max moans loudly biting Chris' bottom lip, breaking their kiss.
"Chris," Max mutters, nudging Max' head with his, as Chris' hand speeds up stroking Max. Chris' hand increases in speed as Max' breaths get shallower and his hand wraps around in his dark hair. Chris begins to suck on Max' neck making it red as he feels Max getting closer to the edge.
"Oh! Chris!" Max screams as he releases himself all over Chris' hand and his boxers.
"Well, that was...." Max trails off once his breath is back to normal. Chris waves his hand over Max' boxers cleaning up the mess and orbing it away, Chris snuggles into Max' chest and slowly closes his eyes and drifts off to sleep. Max smiles at the boy in his arms not believing he is actually there after the last couple of months.
After they wake up from their sleep when they came back from the past, Max orbs away leaving Chris alone with his family. Max needs to get his thoughts and feelings about what happened in the past and with Chris, while Chris tried his best to avoid answering any questions from the rest of the Halliwell family. However as the days turned into weeks of Chris not going to English class and Chris getting detention and Piper getting Mad, Chris knew they needed to sort it out.
Chris orbed into Max' apartment, he sees him sitting on his couch marking their latest papers.
"How can you manage to not turn up to my class but still get an A plus?" Max questions as he puts down his pen and paper, looking at Chris curiously. Chris stands in front of him with his arms folded.
"Chris? Talk to me," Max requests after a few moments of silence. Chris' eyes snap up to meet Max', Chris sighs and moves his hands to rub them through his hair in frustration.
"I just need you to talk to me," Chris says quietly. Max watches as Chris stance crumbles and his eyes tear with emotion.
"Chris," Max whispers, as he now is standing in front of Chris his head resting on Chris' cheek.
"Look I'm sorry, I just needed some time to sort my head out," Max explains.
"I didn't mean to avoid you, but I don't see how it can work," Max continues, rubbing Chris cheek with his thumb.
"Max?" Chris asks with teary eyes. Chris leans into his hand as Max' fingertips stroke Chris' neck. Max pulls Chris into a hug gripping at his hair.
I'm sorry....Chris thinks
You don't have to be.....Max thinks
"Chris, I..."Max starts, but gets cut of when Chris' lips attach to his, Chris takes advance of Max' shocked open mouth and slips his tongue into his mouth and explores the familiar territory. Max quickly pulls away out of breath.
"Max I..." Chris starts, but this time its Max that kisses Chris passionately as he leads him to his bedroom.
"You're not asleep?" Chris asks, looking up from Max' chest, Max smiles down at Chris whose eyes as covered by his messy hair.
"I was just thinking," Max states.
"Go back to sleep," Max sighs as he wriggles into his pillow; Chris turns to face Max lying on top of him.
"Well, if you're not tired," Chris seductively, he raises an eyebrow at Max and quickly captures his lips in his.
"CHRIS!" Someone shouts, Chris feels his mind spinning and the warmth of Max' body disappear.
"Chris, oh thank God mom would f freaked if she found out you hadn't slept in your bed again," A voice says, Chris looks around realising that he is in this room, he looks at Wyatt who is putting on his trainers.
KNOCK! KNOCK!
Piper walks in not even waiting for the come in, Chris turns to her in surprise,
Thank God I put my boxers back on...Chris thinks
"Chris, just woken up, you guys should have been outta here five minutes ago," She states.
"I'll be quick," Chris states in a bit of a confused voice not having a clue of what Piper is on about. Chris quickly makes his way to the bathroom orbing some fresh clothes in there when he's done. While Piper smirks down at her oldest son as he lies back on his bed waiting for Chris.
"Thanks Wyatt, it's his birthday take him somewhere nice," Piper thanks, before leaving him to the quiet.
"Wyatt, you are officially the world's best brother!" Chris exclaims as he and Wyatt wonder around London.
"I just can't believe you've never been here, you're always orbing away," Wyatt exclaims back raises an eyebrow for good measure; he knew Chris knew why he had brought him here.
And it isn't just because of the shops, I know how gay you can be sometimes....Wyatt thinks, Chris stops dead in his tracks
"So is this guy you've left me and B for cute?" Wyatt cheekily asks as he watches Chris' face become more and more red.
"I...erm....he...." Chris trails off. Wyatt leans over ruffling his brother's hair, making him move away.
"Its s'ok Chris, I've known for a while and what I didn't know Bianca filled me in on," He explains with a smile, quickly leaving Chris to standing starring after him as Wyatt walks into a designer store.
Oh God......Chris thinks with a look of terror on his face
Chris quickly runs into the store to catch up with his brother to ask him all the questions going through his head, but to his avail his brother dodges them until they are sitting down in a little cafe about half an hour later. Wyatt sighs as he watches his nervous brother fidget in his sit and stir his coffee far too many times for his liking.
"For the fact that you haven't slept in your own bed nearly every night in the past couple of months, I was gonna spy on you, then Bianca told me not to and I made a joke about 'Why it's not a hot guy is it?' and when she didn't respond I put two and two together, look Chrissy don't be mad at me, I just wanted to make sure you were safe," Wyatt explains.
"Wy," Chris whines, he scrubs his face in embarrassment. Wyatt laughs at his little brother and takes a sip of his tea; he never liked coffee like the addict sitting opposite him.
"So you're okay with this? I mean, really you're not gonna rat me out to mom or anyone?" Chris finally asks.
"Chris, I love you and I would never do anything to hurt you, so when you're ready to tell mom I'll be right there with you, okay," Wyatt explains as if it's the simplest thing in the world.
"Thanks, Wy, you're the best big brother ever," Chris gushes and gets up and runs around to Wyatt's side of the table and giving him a bone crushing hug. A couple at the next table 'awww' them which make Wyatt, push Chris off him; who is smiling like a crazy person.
"Right, now that's sorted, drink up, we have shopping to do," Chris instructs, once he is sitting again, he quickly downs his coffee and waits on Wyatt.
"You're so Gay," Wyatt mumbles as they get up to leave a few minutes later. Chris just chuckles in response.
As they arrive home a while later, Chris notices the quiet first and rolls his eyes dramatically at his brother who can't help but feel sorry for him as they go through this every year; a relative takes him out for the day, they get home to a dark and silent Manor, which turns out to be everyone hiding and ready to shout surprise when he flicks the light on.
Why do they bother doing this every year...he thinks as he finds the light switch as the house is filled with light, everyone jumps out from their hiding places and shouts "Surprise!" His mother and aunt gush at him and give him a big hug, which he is slightly embarrassed about.
"Happy Birth Peanut," Piper whispers in his ear, Chris sensing she is about to cry pulls away shooting a look at Paige who drags Piper away.
Every Year...Paige thinks, Chris laughs at her thoughts and then gets swarmed but his uncles and cousins. Chris looks up and sees a banner with 'Happy Sweet Sixteen Chris' Painted on it as it hangs from the archway. As the party gets into full everyone is dancing and eating all the food that Piper has cooked. Chris slips past everyone and goes outside for some air. As he lights his cigarette he sensing someone coming outside, he turns to his right with a smile on his face.
"Hey," He greets.
"Happy Birthday," Max greets back, leaning in and giving him a peck on the cheek.
"Thanks," Chris replies shyly as he leans back to take a drag of his cigarette; Chris holds it out for Max who takes it gracefully.
"Are all you birthdays like this?" Max asks.
"Pretty much, so dude get used to them, you remember Piper's a couple of weeks ago," Chris reminds him, Matt chuckles at the memory of Piper's face when they all jumped out at her.
"So where's my present?" Chris asks.
"I thought I gave you that last night?" Max asks back in a low voice, Max leans in and gently sucks on Chris' earlobe making him moan lightly.
"Chris!" A voice calls, they quickly straighten themselves up.
"Happy Birthday!" She shouts pushing Max outta the way and crushing Chris.
"Bianca, I can't breathe," Chris chokes out; as Bianca gets him go Chris looks to where Max was to find him gone.
"Oh, was that important," Bianca says gesturing to Max' disappearance.
"I'll get him later," Chris sighs. Bianca smiles at Chris, ruffling his hair affectionately. Chris ducks out of her reach and finishes off his cigarette, she laughs dragging him back into the house, as they appear in Chris comes face to face with Michael, Chris and Michael stare at each other for a long time.
"Oh, Michael I'm so glad you could come," Piper gushes as she enters the kitchen, she gives Michael a hug and carries on piling her plate full of food, all the time Chris and Michael are staring at each other.
"Hey," Chris breathes out.
"Hey, how are you?" Michael asks, Chris nods his head and answers
"Ok, it's my birthday after all,"
"Ye, erm...happy birthday," Michael says putting on a smile. Chris smiles shyly at him, but is shocked to see a pair of pale hands slip around Michael's waist.
"Ooh, hi, I'm John hope you don't mind me crashing," he says politely, giving Michael a small kiss on his cheek.
"Excuse me, I see someone I know," Chris says and quickly drags Dom who is walking into the kitchen back out with him.
"Hey, Thanks," Chris says quickly.
"No probs, that the Ex?" Dom asks, Chris nods his head gravely at this Dom laughs making Chris chuckle too.
"Come on, let's dance those blues away," Dom states dragging Chris to the sun room where other people are dancing. Over the next hour Chris dances and drinks with his friends and family, however all the time Chris is wishing he could dance with Max. Chris throws Max a look across the room as he watches him talk to Phoebe and Paige.
Hey sexy...Chris thinks with a smirk on his face, Max looks over at him with a confused look, then slightly smiles back
Hey, you Okay? Enjoying all the dancing?.....Max asks
Loving it! But I could do with a kiss off my boyfriend....Chris suggests, then frowns when he catches himself thinking 'boyfriend'
It's okay...Max thinks back
Chris begins to dance again with Melinda, however he freezes as he sees Michael and John enter the dance floor and start to dance with each other, Chris looks around to see if there are any shocked faces, however there are none and Chris frowns at this.
It would be like this if it was me doing that...He thinks and silently makes his way from the sun room, through the foyer and up the stairs.
"So, this is where you're hiding?" Max asks as he tries to sneak up on Chris, who turns to look at him at the last second, Chris flops back down on to his bed with a big sigh. Max sits next to him and begins to stroke his hair.
"I know it's hard for you, it is for me, but we can tell them soon okay, but it's your birthday I don't want to spoil it" Max explains as he watches Chris relax under his touch.
"Aw, how touching," a Cold voices calls in the room, Chris and Max shoot their eyes up to the other side of the room where a demon is standing by Chris' desk. The demon shoots a fireball at them, it just misses as they roll off and run out of the door, the demon chases them into the hallway where Chris can now hear screams and shouts coming from down stairs, as the demon goes to shoot another fireball at them Chris holds his hand out shooting a stream of ice, Chris then waves his hand smashing him into the wall.
"Just great, that's all I need," Chris grumbles as he pulls Max along to the stairs.
"Every damn birthday," Chris groans again in frustration as another demon appears on the stairs in front of them, this time Chris flicks his hand and sends him flying across the foyer.
"You're birthdays are eventful," Max comments as the looks from the stairs at the foyer, dining area and living area, he watches as the Charmed ones plus their magically friends and relatives vanquish the never ending demons.
"Let's hope it doesn't end like last time," Chris says mournfully looking at Piper and his Aunts, Chris' eyes darken to a sea green as he gives Max' hand a squeeze and heads down the stairs; to deal with the awaiting demons.
Max stands froze on the stairs, feeling Chris words run through him 'Not like last time'; Max takes a deep breath to steady the onslaught of thoughts and feeling racing through his mind and heart. Max looks around trying to see the scene in front of him, somehow it seems different a lot older, he sees Piper making a demon explode, then nothing as his mind goes totally black. Max' head begins to spin he knows he must help in the fight, however he can't figure how. He takes a shaky step forward, as he almost falls he grabs on to the banister to steady himself, he sees Chris his hands out wide electricity flowing through the room attaching itself to the demons and making them buzz and shake.
"Chris?" Max whispers.
Chris steps on to the ground floor of the Manor looking at the two demons in front of him, with a wave of his hand they fly away from him, Chris takes a look into the dining area where Wyatt as put memory dust over the mortals and crystals around them fearing more demons. Chris looks over to Phoebe as she kicks a demon sending him flying into the clock smashing it to pieces; Paige orbing a knife into a demons chest to the left of him and finally Piper who standing in the living room making the demons explode, he looks on in panic as a demon shimmers in behind her with a fireball ready.
"ENOUGH!" Chris shouts. Everyone and everything in the room looks at him. Chris holds out both of his hands he feels the anger course through him as the electric current builds. Electric bolts make their way out of his hands streaming around the room to every demon as it attacks them it makes them shake violently and seconds later explode. Chris sighs heavy as the magic runs out of him leaving his family to stare in shock at him. His eyes turn back to the emerald colour.
"Chris?" Max whispers as he steps on to the ground floor. Chris turns as he sees Max with a confused look on his face, Max looks around curiously.
"Max?" Chris asks taking a step towards him.
"You guys okay?" Piper asks.
"You don't think a demon got him do you?" asks Paige as she calls Leo, Henry, Coop and the kids back. Piper and Phoebe make their way over to Max and Chris who are still standing starring intensely at every other. Phoebe sensing the confusion; steers Max into the living room on to the couch as Chris and Piper follow.
"What happened?" Bianca asks as she emerges from the Sun Room.
"That power is ace, by the way Chris," She says with a smile trying to lighten the mood, all the time looking at Max as if he has grown an extra head.
"Maybe you could try and heal him, Paige," Leo suggests as he moves over near Piper around the couch. Paige goes to move near him, but Chris puts his hand out to stop her.
"He doesn't need healing!" Chris shouts rising from the coffee table where he is sitting watching Max like everyone else. Everyone in the room is shocked at his outburst. Max looks up at Chris with a frown on his face, as they make eye contact Chris notices that Max' normal sparkling eyes are now a stormy grey.
"I don't understand, it's all so different, how are they here?" Max finally asks indicating to Piper and Paige. Chris looks over at them hoping they aren't piecing this together so fast. He gets up from the couch and begins to pace his mind racing.
"It's okay, Look their alive," Chris quickly explains, as he tries to calm Max. How Max frantically waves his hands around going through things in his head, Chris sighs watching him as he thinks of a way to stop him spilling their secrets.
"I think whatever I said to you made you come here," Chris explains.
"What did you say?" Piper asks curiously. Chris dismisses the questions and stands getting in front of Max, who stops in front of Chris.
"Max," Chris whispers, putting his hands on his elbows, holding him in place. Max looks down at the slightly shorter boy frowning.
"It's different now, okay, for a start you're not dead and I'm not that messed up," Chris tries to explain. Wyatt glides into the room looking at everybody wondering what is going on. Max' eyes shoot up; he jumps up from the couch and backs away.
"Wyatt!" He screams; Chris turns to Wyatt as he comes further into the room and tries to shield Max from him.
"Max, what's the matter?" he asks dumbly as Bianca elbows him in the ribs, he glances sideways at her.
"He thinks you're gonna kill him," Chris explains.
"What, Come bro, I would never..." he trails off when Chris rounds on him with sea green eyes blazing.
"Yes! You would and you tried, so could you go into another room so I can stop him freaking out," Chris orders, holding on to Max' wrist tightly, Wyatt takes a step back at hearing his brother speak to him like that, Wyatt goes to make a move forward, but as Bianca puts her hand over his, Wyatt submits and allows her to pull him into another part of the house.
"Hey, Max I..." Chris starts put gets cut off by Max.
"He won't hurt you again, okay," Max says in a firm voice. Chris rolls his eyes.
"Max, I need you to try and understand, this isn't our time or place you need to go back to wherever you were hiding or sleeping or whatever we do when we aren't needed," Chris reasons. Max backs out of the embrace and leans against the fire holding his head.
"How can you be so calm about him being in your house and why are you here anyway?" Max asks. Chris opens his mouth to speak but stops himself.
"I'm your whitelighter I'm here to protect you, how can I do that when you come here looking for trouble?" Max wonders, Chris sighs remembering how this agreement went last time around. Max moves closer to Chris encircling him with his hands around his waist pulling him so they are nose to nose, with a small smile Max leans in and captures Chris lips in a rough kiss, Chris starts to pull Max closer by his hair, then remembers where he is; hearing his name being called; he pushes max away who looks offended.
"Listen to me, we can't do this, it's a different time, you're human!" Chris shouts at him prayer that it may work, however it seems to have the opposite effect and Max orbs out, Chris looks worried.
"What just happened?" Piper demands, Chris turns to her with tears in her eyes.
"Not now okay, I need to find him and bring my Max back," he whispers and orbs out.
As the rest of the family begin to clear up the mess and speculate as to what just happened, Wyatt is sitting with his head in his hands on his bed as Bianca rubs his shoulder from the side she is sitting.
"You can't tell him I told you, if he found out and then he could say things that would make that Wyatt come back, like Max downstairs," Bianca finishes explaining, Wyatt sighs as he tries to take it all in.
"I can't help it, but this is a lot to take it and I will as if you're not telling me everything," Wyatt states.
"I feel if I tell you everything you may turn evil and then we'll have another one on our hands," She states as she continues to rub his shoulder.
"Bianca, we all have past lives, but why is this one so important and with Chris and Max?" Wyatt asks.
"Wy, their in love and always have, that's one of the reasons why Chris and Max weren't getting long at first that and the added sexual tension was making it worse, but once they got over that, they've gotten close, again," she explains.
"He's our teacher, Chris and Max can't be..." Wyatt trails off as he flops back on the bed.
"Wyatt, you can't say again to anyone, please," Bianca pleads with Wyatt.
"I just don't understand," he says lifting his head and then lies back down on his bed.
Chris orbs back into the kitchen in the early hours of the morning. He looks over to Piper who is sitting by the kitchen table a mug of tea in her hand. He takes a seat opposite her.
"Is Max okay?" Piper asks. Chris looks at her through his tired, red and puffy eyes.
"He's better know, I don't know if he's ever gonna speak to me again, but I'll have wait and see," Chris explains with a sigh.
"You know?" Piper asks evenly. Chris bows his head in shame.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you," Chris whispers.
"No, you're not, Chris I know you, both of you, I just don't understand why," Piper explains.
"I found out last year, around me birthday so stuff was happening and I just didn't feel I could tell you after what I found out," Chris starts to explain.
"And what about Max, you never mentioned him before?" Piper asks.
"Before I came back Max was kinda an unspeakable thing after what happened between us, I guess when I came back I blocked it out, I blocked a lot of stuff out," Chris continues as he runs a hand through his hair. Piper reaches over and takes his hand in hers willing him to continue.
"He was my whitelighter, after my fourteenth birthday I went off the rails a bit, I couldn't cope and Wyatt wasn't there and then Max was sent to help, at first I didn't want or thought I didn't need it, but then I guess we both warmed to each other, but the more time he was on earth and around me he was in danger and Wyatt got to him and that's when we came up with the plan for someone to go back and change everything," Chris explains with tears silently streaming down his face.
"Oh, Peanut," Piper whispers, she moves off her seat and comes around to Chris to embrace him in a tight hug.
Okay what did you think? Good or Bad?
