Confusion

Max rolled over and looked at the clock. It was a little past am. She heard the toilet flush in the bathroom and there he was standing naked in the doorway rubbing sleep out of his eyes, somehow managing to look both boyish and deliciously manly at the same time. “You may be able to function of just two hours of sleep at night, sweetheart,” Alec said with a big yawn. “But I need at least four or I feel like shit.”

“It’s your own fault, pretty boy,” she said, her smile softening the sarcasm. They had reached his apartment at am and had gotten to sleep at three. “Up and at ‘em. We need to get to work.”

“Seems to me I’m the one who’s already up,” Alec said as he began picking up his clothed from off the floor, totally at ease being naked in front of her. Max slid out from under the sheets and walked towards the bathroom.

“Is there enough hot water for us both to shower?” she asked.

Alec smirked, “There will be if we do it together.”

“It might not last, Alec,” she smiled. “But I’m in if your in.”

The two had enjoyed a very enjoyable shower together that had led to an incredible amount of deep passionate kissing and yet another coupling with Max’s legs wrapped around his waist, her ass cupped in his hands, and the hot water running out as her back pounded the tile wall in rhythm to his urgent thrusts. Afterwards the dried off, dressed, and went their separate ways to work.

Max walked into Jam Pony, only to see Alec, OC, and Sketchy in a middle of a conversation in front of her locker. This was always the hard part; walking up to her closest friends and trying to act normal around Alec. She took a deep breath and walked towards the group.

“Hey, boo,” O.C. smiled. “Where’ve you been?”

“Hey. I had something to take care of. I was gonna do it earlier nut I got a little distracted,” she said. From the corner of her eye, she could see Alec smirking.

“Who is he?” O.C. asked.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she shrugged as she opened her locker.

“Don’t play dumb with me, boo. You ain’t ever home at night and you seem a lot happier in the morning. So who is he?” OC asked.

“Yeah Maxie. Who’s this guy keeping you up all night?” Alec smirked.

Max sighed, “Nobody important.”

“Is he good in bed?” Alec asked.

“I’ve had better,” she shrugged.

“Get to work people. Bip bip.” Normal cut in.

Sketchy and OC got up to make there runs. Alec walked up to Max pressing his body real close to her. Max shivered at his breath on her neck. “Liar,” he spoke nipping her neck. Suddenly he pulled himself away. Confused, Max turned around and noticed OC.

“You’re coming to crash tonight right?”

“Yeah, but I’m having dinner with Logan. But I’ll meet you there later.” With that, Max took off for her runs.

How did he do this? How did he manage to be in her thoughts all the time? Him and that stupid smirk; she both loved and hated that smirk. That smirk always made her stomach do flip that would never stop. The way his lips would come together to create that beautiful smirk. He has perfect lips. Always full, always soft, always wet. God, the things he could do with that mouth. He-

“You okay?” Logan asked interrupting her thoughts.

“Huh? Oh yeah I’m fine,” she explained lamely.

“You sure? You seem distracted.”

“Yeah, sorry…it’s been a long day. Just tired I guess,” she lied.

“Maybe you should get some rest,” he stated concernedly.

“I think you’re right…I should got.” She hated lying to him. They were finally on good terms again and she hated that all she thought about was Alec. “Dinner was wonderful, thank you.”

“Anytime.”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Max walked into crash and headed straight for the bar/ Feeling a body move close to her, she smiled.

“What happened to you’re date?” the soft voice spoke in her ear. She moved to have him but the firm grasp of his hands on her hips held her still.

“I bailed.”

“Not that I’m complaining, but why?” he asked.

“I wanted you.”

Alec moved his lips to her ear, “As I recall, you had me this morning.”

“You not up to the task?”

Alec pulled her closer, letting her feel his hard on. He chuckled lightly in her ear, “I always ready.”

She was about to respond when she felt him move away.

“It’s about time you showed ” OC pulled her in a hug. “Come on,” she said taking Max’s hand. She pulled Max through the bar to the table where Sketchy was sitting.

“Hey Max,” Sketchy smiled.

“Hey”

The four sat down. Alec sat across from her never taking his eyes off hers. Sketchy had started a conversation about something, but neither Alec nor Max seemed to notice.

“Wanna dance OC?” sketchy asked.

“Serious?” OC replied.

“Yeah, we never dance.”

OC took Sketchy’s hand and headed to the dance floor, and Alec took the now vacant seat next to Max. “So how’s Logan?”

“Fine,” she replied staring at his lips.” You wanna get out of here?”

He looked at her a minute before answering. “Sure.”

Once outside they hopped on Max’s bike and sped off. “Where are we going?” Alec asked after a few minutes.

“You’ll see.”

As they neared the destination, he knew exactly where they were going. He could see it miles away. He wrapped his arms tighter as she gunned the engine harder and her body relaxed into his. He rested his chin on her shoulder and smiled as they came to a stop in front of the building. The two wordlessly entered the space needle. They stopped at the observation deck and stepped inside of it. Alec turned to see Max rummaging through some fallen pieces of debris. Out of it, she pulled a bottle of whiskey and a blanket.

She laid out the blanket and sat down, motioning him over to her with a small wave of her hand. He quickly obliged and sat across from her, cross-legged, mimicking her own position. Reaching behind, she gathered more hidden items. Two shot glasses and a full bottle of gin joined the whiskey on the blanket. She paused for a moment before holding up both bottles. “What’s your poison?”

“Whiskey looks good.” He replied never taking his eyes off hers. She was acting strangely and she knew something was bothering her. She nodded and began pouring the drinks for them. He studied her face as she did this.

“Alec, you okay?”

Alec turned his attention back to her face, “just thinking.” He took his drink and quickly downed it.

“Me too,” she replied.

“Talk to me,” he urged. “Tell me what’s on your mind.”

“Everything,” she replied honestly. “Everything just seems so…so confusing. Nothing seems to be going in the right direction…Like, with the transgenics. It’s like every step we take forward, white blocks us. Nothing’s stable, not constant. It’s scary…but when I’m with-” she stopped mid sentence and suddenly found the ground more interesting.

“But what?” Alec pressed further; she was still looking down so he lifted her chin with one finger and forced her to look at him. “When you’re with…” he started for her again, waiting for her to answer.

“When I’m with you I don’t feel scared anymore. I feel safe, like everything’s going to be all right. Like nothing, bad can touch me. That’s why I spend the entire night with you.” She finally admitted.

The room fell silent for what seemed to be an eternity as Alec let the information sink in. It almost sounded like she wanted him as more than a friend or fuck buddy. ‘Don’t kid yourself Alec. Friends make friends feel safe.’ “Max,” he spoke softly, “You know I’ll always have your back no matter what.”

“I know, and I have yours,” she shyly smiled.

Alec leaned in and pressed a kiss against her lips. Max returned the kiss turning it into a more passionate kiss; they attacked each other, hands fumbling and grabbing and pulling each other until there was no space between them. Then Max was falling backwards and Alec was on top, pushing her further onto the ground as he covered her body with his. Max yanked on his shirt, pulling it up, telling him what she wanted and he happily obliged her by lifting his arms and allowing her to remove it.

Her hands immediately shot out to his chest, slowly moving all over him, not allowing a single space of flesh go untouched as his mouth descended on hers once again. Max reached down and pulled off her shirt. She reached up and kissed him as her hands fumbled with the zipper of his jeans. She pulled them down as far as she could using her powerful legs before Alec kicked both them and his shoes off. He kissed her again lightly before trailing kisses down her haw, neck, and finally settling on his destination. Max inhale sharply at the first flick of his tongue on her hard nipple and arched into him, begging for more of his skilled torture. He alternated between her breasts, using his hand to make sure the other was not neglected. He then kissed his way further down, stopping at her abdomen to dip into her navel. Making it to the waistband of her pants, he quickly undid the button and zipper and pulled them as well as her panties off.

He moved his mouth back down and began to kiss his way up her leg, traveling to her inner thigh and then stopping to watch her writhe in anticipation as she spread her legs further apart. His mouth returned to her inner thigh but did not stop this time and reached its initial destination.

Max’s head fell back and her eyes closed as he lavished her with his tongue, teeth and lips. Quiet whimpers turned into load moans as Alec drove her closer and closer to completion. Bring one hand to rest on her hip to keep her still, the other one came to the area his mouth had momentarily left and he inserted one finger into her warm depths. Max cried out as she felt another finger and then another joined the first one and his mouth returned to her clit as his fingers moved in circular motions inside her then retreated on to be pushed back in. With one final thrust, Max dell off the edge and her muscles contracted wildly around him.

He positioned himself between her legs, propped up in his arms above her. Her hand grasped him and guided him to her center and with one swift thrust; he was inside her, filling her completely. He kissed her softly, eyes never wavering from hers he began to move in and out of her. His thrusts were slow and deliberated, wanting to prolong the act as long as possible and her arms came up around his shoulders, clinging for dear like. He was building her up so high and as he pumped into her one last time, they both came together. Alec collapsed on top of her, settling his head in the crook of her neck. The two’s breathing labored as they listened to the quiet all around.
