Chapter Twenty One
Liz yawned and opened her eyes as she sighed and snuggled under the warm sheets. "Morning" Max whispered as he watched Liz open her eyes in a sleepy daze. "Morning" she whispered smiling and then closed her eyes.
"I will let you sleep." Max whispered softly as he kissed her forehead. Liz sighed and pulled the covers up closer to her as Max left and went into the kitchen.

"Isabel did you get intouch with your brother?" Alex said as he dried his wet hair with a towel after taking a shower.
"No I haven't heard from him. I hope he is alright. Alex can I use your phone?" Isabel said worried as she looked at him.
"Of course." Alex said handing her the phone. Isabel dialed the number and let it ring a few time before a voice was heard on the other line.
"Hello" a femail voice said on the other end.
"Oh Hi um I was wondering if my brother was there?" Isabel said trying to figure out who the woman was at Max's apartment.
"Isabel it's Tess, Tess Harding."
Isabel blink her eyes open in shock. "Oh hey Tess well isn't this a surprise. um how...how are you?" Isabel said still in shock to hear his brothers high school ex girlfriend on the phone.
"Oh me I'm, I'm great! Never better." Tess said cheerfully over the phone as Isabels mind started wondering as a mental picture of what Tess and her brother might of been doing the night before.
She shook her head of the distusting image and went back to finding her brother.
"Oh um is Max there?" Isabel said waitig paciently for her answer. "Oh no He is in Boston something about a business trip. He will be back sunday.
I was just about to leave his apartment anyway I live in New York now and I was just catching up with him about good old days.He might have his cell phone on him.You can reach him that way." Tess said
Isabel breathed a sigh of reliefe "Oh really thats great. Just great. Thanks Tess. Nice hearing from you."
"You too bye" Tess said as the phone clicked off.
Isabel hung up and then started dialing his brothers number.
