CHAPTER 4
Alec was so happy. He convinced everyone to come to TC. 'Yes!' he thought. 'Max is going to be so happy.'
It was about time to go home.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Max sat in her living room on the couch she thought about what Logan said last night. She laughed a little, 'my ex-boy friend was trying to convince me that my current boyfriend isn't cheating on me. How bizarre is that?'
"Was Logan right?" she asked her self out loud. 'He could be. Alec has changed a lot, but I don't know if I trust him.'
'But if I didn't trust him, I wouldn't have hooked up with him in the first place.'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A half an hour later there was a knock at Max's door. 'I hope its Alec.' She thought as she got up to get the door.
She opened it, and there to her surprise stood Tinga, "Hey sis!" Tinga told her, and Max stood there with her mouth wide open. "Tinga? Is it really you?" she asked quietly.
"No, it's Renfro back from the grave." Tinga replied sarcastically "Of course it's me." And put her arms around Max.
Max hugged her back and started crying. "I'm so glad your back." She said.
"Me too sis. Me too." Tinga smiled.
"Come on," Max followed Tinga out of the apartment. "Let's go down to the mess hall."
"Ok." Tinga agreed. "So, is this your new palace?" she asked and Max giggled.
"Well, I am the queen so I guess you could say so. How did you find me?" Max asked her back.
"I'm not supposed to tell you." Tinga said.
"What? Why aren't you supposed to tell me?" she asked as the entered the mess hall, but what they didn't see was who was waiting for them there.
"Excuse me, I'm supposed to meet a girl named Max here." Zane interrupted their conversation.
"Zane?!?!" Max yelled and jumped on him and he laughed. "Yeah, wow you've grown Max." he said picking her up.
"No shit. So have you!" she said excitedly, a few seconds later a girl walked into the mess hall and screamed, "Max!!!"
Max turned around to see what the commotion was and realized the girl was Jondy. "Jondy!!!" Max screamed equally loud as she ran to hug her. The two sisters embraced and held each other for a while. "I've missed you so much." Max whispered through all her crying.
Tinga and Zane stood and watched them. "How you been sis?" Zane asked Tinga. "Never better bro." She answered and put one arm around him.
Max and Jondy finally let go of each other just long enough to see three other people entering the mess hall. They looked closely and realized it was Syl, Zack, and Krit. Zack?
Syl and Krit entered and saw Tinga, Jondy, Max, and Zane standing and watching them.
"This is really is a fuckin' reunion." Krit said and hugged each of them, the same as Syl did.
Zack stood in the corner watching everyone. 'Who are these people?' he thought to him self.
Max hugged Syl and said, "We have so much catching up to do. How did you find Zack?"
"We heard he was staying on a farm near by here, so on our way we dropped by and picked him up." Syl replied.
"Does he remember anything?" Max asked.
"Not a thing!" Krit called still holding on to Jondy. "He doesn't even know his own designation."
Max closed her eyes painfully, and took a deep breath she walked over to Zack. "Hey Zack. Do you remember me?" she asked and hugged him.
Zack felt very awkward, but gave into the hug. "No, I'm sorry." He said quietly.
Max cried, "Don't be sorry. It's ok; you'll get it back. Come on let's join the others." She said and he followed.
Everyone stood and talked in a circle when Max and Zack joined them. "So my question is." Max interrupted all the little conversations that we're going on. "How did you guys know I was here?"
"Alec." Krit replied and Syl smacked him on the arm. "You're not supposed to say!" and he shrieked in agony.
"No wonder!" Max said. "What?" Zane asked her.
"That's why he left." She said everything seemed to finally fit into place.
"Oh, there's our hero now." Jondy said pointing to the entrance where Alec walked through. "Alec!" they screamed.
He looks at them. "How come you guys are already here?" he asked.
"Well, we left a little earlier then you told us." Krit replied coming over to greet him. "What's up man?" Zane, Jondy, Tinga, and Syl walked over and hugged him.
"Your all already here." He said.
"Yeah, and we even brought extra." Syl said and Alec looked at her confusingly. "Zack." He finally said when he saw him.
"I remember you." Zack said. "Your that annoying guy that always hangs around Max." Zack said.
"You remember!" Jondy yelled and hugged him. Max stood and watched Alec. She finally walked over and kissed him. He put her arms around her deepening the kiss.
"Hey! Get a room!" Krit yelled from behind them and they smiled breaking the kiss.
"I'm so glad your back." She said. "We all are!" came a voice that belonged to Jessi. "She's been driving us crazy all week and thinking that you're cheating on her."
Alec looked at Max. "You thought I was cheating on you?" he asked.
"I don't anymore." She replied. "Good cause if you we're I would be kicking your ass all the way back to Manticore." Zack said and everyone stood in shock. "I think seeing all of you made me get my memory back." He said. "Hey bro!" Krit hit him playfully but also painfully on the back.
"Who finally convinced you?" asked Dawn.
"Logan." Max replied and Alec stared at her. "What? I had to talk to someone at 3 a.m.!" she said and he laughed. 'Everyone was right.' Max thought.
"You know." Alec began. "I told my self if I pulled this thing off I would tell you the truth." 'Oh no.' Max thought.
"The truth?" she asked waiting for him to tell her that he is having an affair.
"Yeah Max, I read your Diary." He finally confessed, and a wave of relief washed over Max she thought it was much worse.
"It's okay." She smiled and then got more serious. "Just don't ever do it again!"
"Believe me I won't." he said. "Wait. Not everyone is here yet." Alec said.
"What do you mean?" everyone asked him.
"Brin isn't here yet." He concluded.
"She is now." Brin said from behind him. He turned around and hugged her. Brin let go of him and looked around where everyone is staring at her.
"Hey everyone." She said apprehensively. "Hey Brin!" everyone else yelled and she stood there in shock. "I thought you guys would hate for what I did to you."
"Nah, you sure your not going to turn all Manticore on us?" Krit asked and she laughed and nodded no. "Then okay." He said and put his arms around her, and soon everyone did the same.
"Well, since everyone is here I would like to say something." Max said immediately catching everyone's attention.
"Thank you Alec so much for doing this for me, and thanks for everyone that came. Alec, this was a tremendous surprise, I don't know what I would do without you. And well, I have a surprise for you too. You know I love you so much, and this week has just been a roller coaster-" her speech was interrupted by Krit.
"Come on get to the point!" he yelled.
"I'm pregnant." Max said and everyone cheered and began congratulating them. Alec just stood there and kept repeating, "I'm going to be a father."
"Honey, are you ok?" Max asked him.
"Okay? I'm a lot better then okay." He smiled. "I'm going to be a father!" he yelled in pride and everyone laughed.
Max kissed him and broke the brief kiss smiling. "This is the happiest day of my life." She said and he replied, "Me too."
