OOC: Awesome Post Alizaleven! I missed ya

*Maria*

There is only the slightest pause before the sexiest man I’ve ever laid eyes on speaks up with a husky just woke up tone, "Morning," His lips meet mine in the most delicious manner before he pulls back slightly to gaze meaningfully into my eyes. Damn. I’ve never felt this way before. It’s as if he’s cast a spell on me. I just want to lay my head on his chest and listen to his deep breathing or perhaps capture that glorious mouth again for a passionate kiss.

I’m conflicted at the moment and I don’t like that. I’m normally quite decisive and sure of myself but at this moment I’m not very sure of anything. All I know is he looks way to good in my chair. I’d like to keep him there and never allow him to move ,or if he must I would allow him to relocate to my bed where we could… Better stop that thought. It could only lead to naughty ideas and those take time which is a commodity I don’t currently obtain.

Stealing a glance at the clock I notice that I am an hour late to the fair. Liz is going to absolutely kill me. I push that thought back as Michael flashes me this sweet easy going grin. How can I be stressed when he looks at me like that? I feel a smile form across my features before I can stop it. He does look rather appealing. His chestnut hair all mussed and his clothes disheveled. The boy looks good slept in. I’ll give him that.

“Good Morning.” I practically purr while leaning in to steal one more kiss before the magic spell breaks and he realizes that I am not the person he’s looking for. Despite my better judgment I allow myself to enjoy the moment and in doing so I somehow wind up in his lap. Don’t ask me how? It seems that my body has a mind of it’s own. “You stayed?” It comes out as a question as I search the depth of his chocolate brown eyes for meaning.

“Why?” Any other guy I know would have just dropped me off and chalked it up as a major waste of time ,but he didn’t. He’s not like all the others. Still, I need to know that his reasoning his honorable.

Just as the kiss starts to get good and she relaxes, I hear Alex's booming voice. "Hey, you two!" We jump apart and I can't help glaring at Whitman. I've been nothing but supportive for him and Isabel and then he has to go and ruin it for me with Tess! I quickly shake off that thought, though as my brain reminds me that Alex was headed over here before I kissed Tess and he didn't know what he was walking into. I smile at them and take Tess' hand. "How was the Tunnel of Fear?" I ask.

~LIZ~

I can't believe it. "Your first kiss was something you should cherish! And that tramp and your best friend cloud it with mud. I'm so sorry," I tell him sympathetically. "You got a picture of this guy who was supposed to be your best friend?" I ask. I know I should probably call somebody to let them know where Max and I are so that our friends don't worry but I don't want to stop talking to Max long enough to do it.

~~~~~MAX~~~~~
I silently fish for my wallet and pass it to her. "It's at the back" I murmur. "The one with a much younger looking me in Rome. School trip." I explain. I then shrug and mutter. "It's not your fault. Besides...its all in the past now."

~LIZ~

I pull out the photo he describes and glance at his driver's license. How is it that he's the only person I know who looks like a model in his license photo? Mine totally sucks. I study the person who was supposed to be his best friend and shake my head, clucking my tongue. "Those girls didn't know what they were missing out on with you. I mean, yeah, he's kinda cute but you're definitely hotter." I replace the photo and hand his wallet back to him. "You know they will never be able to really trust each other...Jane and your friend I mean. They are both cheaters and the truth is that if they did it once, they would do it again and so they'll both end up miserable. They'll never really have a good relationship with each other or someone else. I know that doesn't probably heal your heart but I hope it helps. Jane was a lying bitch who didn't deserve you."

My words surprise me a little and throw my conscience into overdrive. I suddenly have a clear picture of what could happen if I continue with this bet. I don't want to hurt Max, not that he's in love with me by any means, but isn't that what I'm trying to do? He'll hate me for the rest of our lives if he finds out about this bet but what am I supposed to do? I hear sirens wailing and they're getting closer. I kind of pull away from Max. I turn to face him but can't hold his gaze. It's time for a confession. They say that's good for the soul right? "Max...I...I have something I need to tell you before...well before anything else happens between us," I say in a small voice. Maybe I should wait until we're on the ground so he can't throw me off this ride and send me plummetting to my death below. I swallow hard and gather my courage. I look up into his expectant eyes and blurt out, "I slept with Kyle!" WHAT?! That's not what I meant to say!

[madroswellfan]

~~~~~Max~~~~
We were having a really great moment. I was just thinking that she's not like the other girls... she's so much better....

And then she drops her bombshell.

Kyle slept with her first.
Kyle fucked her.
No wonder there was a spark... no wonder...
She's Kyles bird. I'm sloppy seconds.

"Oh..." I have no idea what to say. What do you say to that?

"Lucky Kyle!" I say with a small smile and turning away. I look at the floor, wanting to be on the ground and FAR away from her.

great M/L parts


Alex

"How was the Tunnel of Fear?"

"Not very scary that's for sure but still fun." I reply with a grin at Iz before turning apologetic eyes at Kyle, very much aware of what I walked into. I mouth 'Sorry' to him, hoping he gets what I mean and that I don't look too geeky in front of the ladies.

[KarenEvans]

Isabel

I grin happily at my friend since she seems to be making progress with Kyle and since Alex and Kyle are good friends I don't have to worry about our boyfriends not getting along etc etc. You know how it can be.

"Oh the Tunnel of Fear was fun. I had to kiss Alex to make him feel better." I say teasingly and give Alex's hand a squeeze " You guys should give it a try." I smile slyly at Tess when I say that "since we interrupted you earlier on. Oh and try the ferris wheel."

[Sternbetrachter]

Alex

"Oh the Tunnel of Fear was fun. I had to kiss Alex to make him feel better."

"You had to kiss me?" I echo in surprise, turning to look at Isabel with raised eyebrows. "I thought I was kissing you in there so you wouldn't be scared?"

Turning back to Kyle and Tess, but keeping my arm around Isabel's shoulders, I say to them, "Of course Iz is right, you should really try it - Kyle still has a ticket for it after all."

[littleroswell]

~KYLE~

I give Alex a wink and a quick shrug, letting him know that it's all cool. Then I turn to Tess and wiggle my eyebrows up and down. "Ok, it's up to you. Food first then the Tunnel or the other way around?" I ask her, not giving her an option to say no to either.

Then I glance over my shoulder at the ferris wheel and notice that it's not moving but there is a pretty big crowd gathering at the bottom of it. Huh. Wonder what's going on.

~LIZ~

What the hell did I just do? I gotta fix this but suddenly I realize why I felt the need to tell him that and I feel my spirits lift a bit. I just hope I can explain it right. "No, Max, you don't understand. There's a reason I wanted you to know. Kyle and I had had a little too much to drink and I don't remember much until we woke up the next morning. We both agreed it was a mistake and we're only friends but I didn't want that to come up sometime in the future, if there is a future with us, and you to be upset that I didn't tell you. I don't want to be like Jane and that other girl, making you think that you are only second and I only want to be with you because I can't be with someone else. I like you a lot, Dr. Max Evans and I am trying to be as honest as I can."

I place my hand lightly over his, so that he can decide if he wants to pull away or not. I look into his face, trying to let him see that I'm being sincere here. When he starts to say something, I panic that he'll tell me to take a hike and I add, "Kyle and I would never work out. It'd be like being with my brother. I just don't see him that way."
