Chapter 10
Ed was working through the office, he was sending e-mails while faxing pictures and sorting out his phone call, Tess was curious to know what he was doing but knew better to keep out of it when it came to him, he kept telling her that all she had to do was trust him and he would sort out everything for her.
She only hoped that whatever he was doing was going to make Max admit that he was in love with Tess one way or another.
Tammy was sitting in the living room, watching the cartoons while Max and Liz were in the kitchen.
“So, you’re gonna take her to the park?” Max asked and Liz nodded.
“Yeah, I thought it would be nice for Tammy to relax instead of being near the gangs and they demanding answers.” Liz explained and Max nodded before pouting slightly.
“There’s no way you could fit me in the basket could you?” he asked and Liz laughed as she kissed him slightly.
“Sorry, you have work today.” She whispered and Max nodded as he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her lovingly, softly.
Liz sighed when she felt him to do this; she loved his kisses and wrapped her arms around his neck, holding on as he kissed her into oblivion. She moaned slightly as Max moved her closer to the fridge, he pressed her back against it, holding her close to him.
“I’ll miss you.” He mumbled and Liz smiled against his lips.
“I’ll miss you too.” She whispered and Max smiled as he took her lips in his once more.
Tammy came round and smiled when she saw Max and Liz kissing before sneaking over to the basket, she peered in slightly and smiled brightly when she saw a piece of the chocolate cake, she reached in to take a bit when a voice stopped her. “And what do you think you are doing?” Liz asked; Tammy looked up with an innocent expression.
“Nothing?” she asked as she shoved her hands behind her back, Max and Liz just looked at her with an amused expression and she smiled. “Ready for the park now.” She stated.
Liz laughed as she pulled away from Max and grabbed the basket before kissing Max, gently, on the lips before taking Tammy’s hand.
“See you later Max.” Liz called as she looked over her shoulder and Tammy blew a kiss toward Max before smiling sweetly and walking out, leaving Max standing there, shaking his head at the two girls in his life before returning back to his bag and pulling it over his shoulder as he looked at his watch.
Time for work.
Liz and Tammy made it to the park, Tammy squealed when she saw the slide and ran over toward it, leaving Liz chasing her, she shook her head as Tammy clambered up the ladders and slid her way down the slide, squealing and giggling at the same time as Liz moved over to a patch of grass and laid out the covers, the same covers that Max had taken with them that night they went ‘stargazing’ and found the pods, she smile fondly as the time came back to her before shaking her head and keeping an eye on Tammy as she laid out the food.
“Hey Max, ready for the study session?” Tess asked and Max looked at her.
“Sorry, I thought that was later?” Max asked and Tess nodded as she looked at her watch.
“It’s later.” She stated and he looked at his watch and sighed.
“Sure, let me just call Liz and get my stuff.” Max stated and Tess jumped at the chance of having Max alone.
“Do you really want to disturb her?” Tess asked and Max looked at her. “She is could be really busy.” Tess suggested, Max fought with himself, he knew that Liz really wanted to spend the day with Tammy but he wasn’t safe around with Tess, he made up his mind.
“No, she really wanted to spend the day with my sister.” Max told her. “Let me get my stuff.” He told her and walked over to the Lockers.
Tess smirked to herself as she watched Max go, now this was her chance to get near Max and just prove herself worthy as his girlfriend rather than that mousy girl.
Liz laughed as Tammy stuffed her mouth with the chocolate cake, smearing some around her lips; she picked up the napkin and started to wipe Tammy’s face.
“You are too much like Max.” Liz teased fondly, remembering the time when Max ordered a piece of Men in Blackberry pie, he had scoffed the lot, leaving a rim over his lips, she shook her head to get rid of the memory and focused on Tammy, she could see Max in the girl, they both were the same, but she also could see a hint of Isabel in the girl as well as she had a way of glaring at people, making them regret something they did and the way she ran to Diane for help to save her from the other people, Tammy just looked up at Liz with a sweet smile and Liz felt herself smiling in return.
Tess glowered to herself as she sat down at the booth in the Crashdown, so much for getting Max on himself own.
She had been excited when Max came striding toward her, that she hadn’t taken any notice of where they were going till he opened the door to the Crashdown and that was when she realised that Max wasn’t going to be alone with her, he nodded toward Maria and Michael, who were both working as he led the way over to the booth.
Max sighed with relief as Tess sat on the other side of the booth and he pulled out his homework.
“Right, Chemistry.” Max stated and winced slightly. “We really should wait for Liz for this, she is better at it than us.” Max stated and Tess shook her head with a smile.
“I’m sure we’ll be able to sort out ‘our’ chemistry alone.” Tess stated, suggestively and Max rolled his eyes as Maria came over to take their order, giving Max a break.
Tammy giggled as Liz pushed her on the swing before getting on the other swing herself and they both laughed as they passed each other.
Unknown to them, someone was watching them from the distance.
Max was getting annoyed with Tess partially hanging over his arm, showing her breasts, he rolled his eyes and shook his head slightly, he never did understand why girls thought bigger breasts were better, sure the guys liked to look at them, he heard about it in the lockers, but he also heard that guys prefer breasts that actually fitted in their palms rather being too big, he knew that Liz had reservations about her breasts and he couldn’t understand it, they fitted perfect in his hands whenever he managed to get a feel, he shifted slightly when an memory came to him when he and Liz got a little further and he played with her breasts.
He shook his head and looked at the blonde once more before rolling his eyes.
“Tess.” He stated and she looked up at him with a hopeful look. “Could you please MOVE?” he asked and her eyes opened wider in shock as she moved away from him, Max sighed, as he was able to breath in relief. “Thank you.” He muttered and she glared at him.
“Don’t seem to mind when it’s Liz hanging over your arm or pressing herself against you.” Tess remarked bitterly and Max looked at her with an amused smile.
“She is my girlfriend, beside, I love it when she clings to me.” Max stated with a loving smile as he looked back down at the homework, he was to point out the answer when Tess jumped in again.
“Why can’t you just admit that you love me Max?” Tess asked with an imploring smile and look. “It’s obvious that you love me.” She told him and Max laughed.
“Oh come on Tess, I love Liz, she’s the only one for me.” Max told her and shook his head. “I think you better ask the teacher for another tutor cause you are just wasting mine and Liz’s time.” He told her as he packed his stuff and got up from the booth, shouldering his backpack, Tess hopped up.
“Oh Max, can’t you just stay?” she pleaded before smirking slightly. “I’ll make it worth your while.” She stated and Max rolled his eyes.
“Nope, not interested.” Max stated before moving over to the counter, where Maria was working.
“Hey Max,” Maria greeted, “How is it going with blonde leech?” she asked and Max laughed.
“I just quit, can I have a cherry cola to take away thanks.” He ordered and she nodded.
“Coming right up.” She told him as she went to fill his order.
Tammy ran around the bush, giggling madly as Liz let out a singsong.
“Tammy, where are you?” Liz sang, Tammy giggled as she ran faster only to bump into a pair of legs; she looked up to see the man wearing a black suit and black glasses.
His hand shot out and he dragging her toward the black van, she began tugging at her hand, not wanting to go away from Liz.
“Liz!” Tammy shouted.
“Tammy?” Liz called out as she moved around the bush, she felt a strange sensation rushing over her body, she had a feeling that something was going to happen, she turned and saw a man pulling Tammy toward the van, she could see that Tammy was fighting and she started to run over to her when her phone rang, pulling it out, she saw it was Max and she opened.
“Max, someone is…” Liz was cut off when she felt something prick her neck and her eyes drooped to half-mast as she fell to the ground, her cell phone falling from her hand, it made a loud thudding noise as it hit the ground.
She saw black shoes step into her view.
“Take her back to the base along with the girl.” A male voice ordered and Blackness claimed her.
