| "Something So Wrong but Feels So Right" Where to begin, life has been strange the last couple weeks of January. Liz broke it off with Max after she saw Max and I kissing. Liz will not talk to either of us. Which means we can't explain that it was part of Spin the bottle at the party we were at. I mean Michael saw the same thing and isn't pissed at Max and I but he could be lying because he pushing me away again. There is something that I haven't told any one because Michael and Liz wouldn't forgive me. What it is, is that when Max and I kissed I felt something that I've never felt with Michael and the feeling felt wonderful. I don't think Max felt it, because he hasn't talk to me or looked me in the face since that kiss two weeks ago. Michael did end up breaking up with me. Well that was until today when he showed up at the Crashdown while I was working. Max asked if I would meet him at Michael's apartment. I told him OK but it would be in a couple hours later because I have to finish my shift at the Crashdown. ******Couple hours later****** I was a little nerves meeting Max at Michael's apartment but we both knew that Michael went to visit Laurie Dupree in Arizona and wasn't due back for another four days. Max is the only other one to have a key to the apartment so that was how we got in but I didn't know later that we would regret having that key but back to what happened. So I knocked on the door and Max opened it and I saw a bunch of candles lit, which was a little breath taking. "Hello Maria!" Max said in a very sexy voice. "Hello Maxwell!" I said with a bit of a shock at what I saw because I thought it was the most romantic thing I had ever seen. Max stifled a laugh when he saw my expression. "Well, come in. I've been waiting for you to get here. I need to tell you something." Max told me. "OK, what is it that you want to tell me because by looking at this room you'd think you were planning a romantic evening." I said with a sexy smile. While I was standing there looking at that room I kept getting flashes from when we kissed at that party and I was getting that feeling I got with that kiss. Then I got an image of Liz with that look of pure hurt when she saw us at that party. So I told my self to forget that wonderful kiss because Max and Liz belong together. "Maria…Maria…Maria." I heard Max say which brought me back to Michael's living room. "What?" I asked. "Are you all right? I called your name ten times." He said. "Yeah, Yeah I'm fine. Just slipped in some kind of funk. Sorry, go head tell me what you needed to tell me." I said. "Do you remember when we were dared to kiss each other at that party?" he asked very quietly. "How could I forget that kiss Max" "So you felt how right it felt. I can't stop thinking about it. Yesterday, I was sitting at home having a conversation with Iz and she mentioned your name once and I got flashes of our kiss and how wonderful it felt." I just stood there in total shock. I didn't know what to say because I didn't think Max felt what I felt. I grabbed Max, pulled him to me, and kissed him. He didn't pull away he tried to get closer and he deepened the kiss. That it took my breath away. I had to push him away because I was afraid I wouldn't catch my breath with him that close to me. He looked up at me with his beautiful smile and with this new sparkle in his gorgeous eyes. "Wow! Wow! Is all that comes to mind. I've never had a kiss like that with Michael but we can't to this Maxwell. It would kill Liz and Michael. We might not be dating them at this moment but we both know that we're in love with them. You and me this is just lust over a stupid dare at a party. I'm not going to act on this again." I told him. He just stood there looking at me like I was crazy. "You have got to be joking Maria. That kiss was more then just lust. I know we both love with other people but I can't deny the feelings I'm having towards you. I just can't deny them any longer Maria." I walked over to the couch and gestured for Max to come join me. He walks over to me and starts kissing me again. But I'm thinking *God, what are we doing, this is just wrong but it felt so right.* I knew Max had his hand up my shirt reaching for my breast next thing I know Max has ripped off my shirt and bra. He deepens the kiss before he moves away from my lips down towards my breast. He gets his mouth around my nipple and starts nibbling. It feels so wonderful that I couldn't help but letting out a little moan. Which made Max look up at me with that wonderful smile. He starts tracing my stomach with his tongue while he is pulling off my skirt and panties off me. Next Max moves his hand between my legs and starts teasing me a little with his fingers by rubbing on my clit making my whole body shiver. I know that he knows that I want to move on. So he starts kissing down my stomach to my clit. I feel him stick his finger up into me then he pulls it out and starts licking me and I'm going to crazy inside because when Michael I did this he wasn't as gentle as Max. Max continues pushing his fingers inside. My climax comes and I let out loud moan and Max moves back up to kiss me again. So I flip him over to his back and I move so I can unbutton his pant and I remove them along with his boxers, which leaves him there lying naked. I stare at him for a minute before I move up to his lips and kiss him. Then I whisper in his ear "You look very sexy." He just smiles. So I start kissing him again while I let my hand drift down to his cock. I grab it and start stroking it very gently at first then I increased the pace. I did this until he came. He then flipped me back over and starts kissing me very passionately. Then he starts to push in side me. I tell him to stop. He looks at me with those eyes then smiles at me I smile back before I tell him. "Max, I have to tell you that me Michael haven't made love yet just fooled around. I'm a little scared." He smiles at me and say almost breathlessly. "Maria I will not hurt you. I'll be very gentle with you. I would never want to hurt you but if you want to stop I will." I look at him. "Max I do not want to stop this. It feels wonderful but I thought that you would want to know." He smiles at me "Are you sure you're ready?" I give a nod then I pull him down to kiss him and he starts kissing me back. Then I feel him go up into me and it hurt but he was very gentle. He started out slowly then became more quickly. I felt myself start to go crazy like I did before then I hit my climax. About five minutes later Max had is orgasm. We were still making love when I heard the keys in the doorknob but I thought I was hearing things so I didn't say anything. Next thing I knew the door was open and I hear Michael say, "Who the hell lit all these damn candles?" Next I heard him say, "Max where are you. I know you're here cuz you're the only other one with a key." I was freaking out because I knew Max and I were about to be caught having sex on my on again- off again boyfriend's couch. I looked up to see Max's expression and he doesn't seem to be as freaked as I am about this. I kept thinking that I wish Tess were here so she could make him see something other then his best friend and his on again-off again girlfriend having sex on his couch. I didn't realize that I was holding my breath until Max gave me quick kiss before he stood up to face Michael. I was too afraid of what would happen that I couldn't move. I just lay there naked as Michael saw Max stand up and put on his boxers and grab his shirt and handed it to me. "Hey Michael, what are you doing back already?" Max asked casually "Max, what the hell is all these candled hear for? Did you and Liz make up and decide to use my apartment to have sex? I'm just guessing that since you didn't have anything on over there." Michael said At this time I figured I should stand up to get it over with but I couldn't move from this spot. "Well, Michael I was entertaining someone but it isn't Liz." I heard Max tell Michael. At that point I grabbed up for Max's hand. It was time to face my doom. "Wow, that is a shocker. Wait what the hell that looked like Maria's hand that just grabbed your hand Maxwell but I must be wrong because you're my best friend and I know that you wouldn't try anything with my girl." Michael said. When I heard that I knew I had to face him because it isn't just Max's fault it takes two and I was willing. As I was about to stand up Max looked down at me and gave me that wonderful smile to let me know that he wouldn't let anything happen. I stood up and the look on Michael's face was pure hatred towards us I didn't know what was going to happen. "What the fuck is this? My girl and my best friend fucking on my damn couch. I can't believe this shit." Michael said very anger. "Michael let me explain." Max said a little to quickly. Quicker then I thought he would. "What is there to say Maxwell, that you tripped and your dick landed inside my girl. Maria I can't believe this. Did all this start when Liz caught you two kissing at that party." I was speechless at this point. I knew he would be pissed but that comment I couldn't believe. "Michael, oh god Michael I'm so sorry but I don't know what to say." I said on the verge of tears. I decided to take a couple step towards Michael when he had his back to me but that was the worst thing that I did all night because I got close enough to Michael that when he swung his fist it caught me right in the eye. I dropped to the ground with my hand over my eye. I don't know who reached me first. "Michael why the fuck did you hit her for?" Max asked, in a voice I never thought I would hear coming from him. I was pure disgust and hatred for Michael. "My god I didn't mean to hit her, she wasn't there when I turned around the first time." Michael said. I was in to much pain to realize what I was doing that I pushed Michael away from me and turn to Max who had his arms around me before I was even turned completely around. I just sat there crying for what felt like hours but was only a few minutes. When I finally got calmed down enough I turned towards Michael with disgust and I said with more anger then I knew I had at this point. "Do not ever come near me again, lose my phone number because I never want to hear your voice either." I turned to Max who had put his pants back on while I was talking to Michael. "Max will you please take me home, I walked over and I don't think I could make it home while I'm in this much pain." I got up put on my skirt on, then I grabbed Max's hand and pulled him closer. I grabbed whatever else that was mine and we left Michael's apartment for what I thought would be the last time. ***One week later*** I have this huge black eye from where Michael hit me and I haven't left my room since Max dropped me off that night. Max has been over everyday to make sure I'm doing OK. He did asked if I wanted him to heal the black eye, so I wouldn't have to try and explain what happen. I told him not to worry about that I had a cover story for my black eye. Plus I wanted Michael to have to see what he did to me. I have to go to school this morning because my mom wont let me stay home from school another day. I was trying to wait till my eye wasn't so black and purple but it isn't getting any better. Well Max called this morning and asked if I wanted a ride to school. I said of course. Which means he will be here any minute and I have to get past my mother with this eye. I've hid it pretty well from her but I'm not hiding it today. Well here goes nothing. When I got in the kitchen I saw a piece of paper on the table so I picked it up and it was a note that said. Dear Maria, I had to get to work early this morning. Sorry I couldn't be there to get you off to school for your first day back after being sick. I love you Honey. Tell Michael HELLO for me. Love your Mother. I breathed a sigh of relief after reading that letter. Then I heard Max honk the horn so I grabbed my bag and walked out to the Jeep. "Hello Max, where is Isabel this wonderful morning?" I asked him with a sweet smile on my face while I climbed in the front seat. "Well I told her I had to get going early this morning and she said she wouldn't be ready in time so I told her to call Alex for a ride." Max answered "But you didn't have to get going early this morning Max. I'm on your way to school." "I know but I had to pick up something for someone special in my life." He said as he reached to the back seat and pulled out a dozen roses. "Max those better not be for me. I didn't do anything to deserve those. I don't want you buying me things because you feel guilty about Michael hitting me." I retorted. "Well I didn't buy them because I felt guilty but I do. I bought these because I'm glad you're coming back to school and now I show everyone that I care for you Maria." He said while he was leaning down for a kiss. So I kissed him. How could I resist with the roses he bought? "Max wasn't that what got me my lovely shiner. Us showing how much we care for each other. I really don't want another shiner from someone else. I did enjoy that kiss by the way. We better get to school and Thank you for my roses I love them." I leaned over and gave a very lovely kiss. **** Well it took us fifteen minutes to get to school, park and walk into school. I could feel people staring at us actually at me. I was a little nerves to have to face Michael and Liz. I wasn't sure if Michael or Max told her what happened. Max walked me to my locker then he bent over and whispered "Meet me in the eraser room after lunch." Then he kissed me on my cheek. I nodded my head yes with a huge smile on my face. Well I made through my first class but second class Michael is in and I haven't seen him yet but I'm sure he knew I had come to school with my black eye because everyone was talking about it. Well here I go in to my second class and their sits Michael staring at me as I walk in with a look of shock when he see that I still have my black eye. I could see the hurt on his face that I left there for him to see because he know that Max could have healed me after we left his apartment. I ignored all the looks that I got when I walked and I didn't sit next to Michael. Well things got worse when the teacher wanted us to do a project and she partnered me with Michael. I begged the teacher to give me someone else because Michael wasn't someone I should be a partner with. She just ignored my request and went with her business. "So I guess you're stuck with me Maria. Now you have to listen to me." He said half-pleaded and half in his normal Michael tone. But before he could continue I interrupted him half-talking and half yelling. "Michael, I told you that I never want to hear your voice again but since I have to because of this stupid teacher. I hear one thing about…" I let my sentence drift because I didn't want the whole class to hear the last part of it. Then I whispered "About you punching me in my eye. I will tell everyone the real truth how I got this black eye. And yes I will tell them the whole thing about me and Max on your couch." When I brought that up his face turned to anger and he yelled before storming out of class. "If you even think what I did was worse then what I walked into then your fucking crazy Maria." I didn't know what to do because the whole class was staring at me wondering what had just happened. I knew I was on the verge of tears, so I got up and grabbed my stuff and ran out of the classroom. I didn't know where to go. I just ran right into the girls' bathroom and ran smack into Liz. Talking about bad timing on my part. I couldn't face her right now so I just turn and left. I didn't return to that class but I had two more before I was suppose to meet Max in the eraser room. ***After Lunch in eraser room*** I was in there waiting for Max to come. I had pretty much cried all day long. My eyes were bloodshot and all puffy. When Max finally showed up he just sat there hugging me. "I heard what happen in your second class with Michael. Are you all right Maria? I wish I had heard earlier then at lunch. Wait how long have you been in here waiting for me?" He asked "I'm not so good I wish I could just leave and I've been in here since mine and Michael's fight in our class. I can't face these people. Did you hear what he said to me Max? He said that what we did was worse then him hitting me. Max I think he hit me on purpose." I couldn't talk anymore I started to cry again but this time I had Max to hold me. Which made me feel a little better knowing I'm not alone. We heard the bell ring for class to begin but we didn't move from our spots. I didn't think I was strong enough to make through the rest of the day and have to face anyone. So after everyone was in class Max asked me. "Do you want me to take you away from here because I will Maria. I feel like this is all my fault. If I hadn't asked you to meet me at Michael's this never…" I stopped Max before he could finish his sentence with a soft kiss on his lips. "Max you're not taking all the blame. I didn't have to agree to meet you and I didn't have to consent to having sex on Michael's couch. Max, I wouldn't take that part of the night away ever but I think that maybe we should be alone and think things out. Because I've lost my best friend and my boyfriend. You lost your girlfriend and your second in command because we acted on something that we should never have. I'm sorry Max but I can't see you right now." I said. Before he could say anything I gave him our last kiss and ran out the door. I didn't stop to look at Max because I don't think I could have handled what I saw from Max. ***Two Weeks Later*** Well Michael hasn't been in our class since our fight, my eye is all better, and I haven't heard from or saw Max since I left him in the eraser room. I did talk to Liz and told her everything that has happened since she saw Max and I kiss. She didn't get as mad as I thought she would. She didn't just blame me like Michael does because I heard that Max and Him have been hanging out the past week or so. Liz told me it takes two people to do what Max and I did. She has forgiven me but still things aren't right. Tess, Isabel, Kyle, and Alex haven't really talked to me either. I have to go back to work tonight. I haven't worked since that night Michael caught Max and me. I had asked Mr. Parker if I could have some time away from work to figure something's out. He gave it to me. So I'm due to work in two hours and I'm dreading it because I'm afraid that Max, Michael, Tess, Isabel, Kyle, and Alex will come in and I don't think I could face them. I know that Liz is working with me tonight but we aren't on that good of terms either. I know she said she forgave me but I think I have to forgive my self for hurting her. ***Later at Crashdown*** Liz and I started our shift and thing are going pretty well this far. I haven't thought about Max or Michael since I started my shift. I do look at the door every time I hear those stupid alien chimes. Well it looks like we close in one hour and nobody has come in tonight. I bet Liz told them that I would be at work tonight. Which is fine with me because I don't want to have to face them. While I was at the counter wiping it off Liz walks up to me. "So how was your first day back Maria." "It was good, I needed to be back at work. I felt like I had fallen off the face of the earth. Liz, I'm really sorry for everything. I know you forgave me but I can't seem to forgive myself for what I did to you." As I was finishing up I heard the stupid Alien Chimes from the door. First I looked at the clock 10 minutes till close. Why would someone come this late? I turned around to see who opened the door. There stood the whole group: Alex, Isabel, Tess, Kyle, Max, and Michael. I couldn't help but turn around and run to the break room in the back. I can't believe they are here. All of them, they could have come in at different times but no they came in at the same time. I heard the door behind me open and close before I looked up to see Michael standing there. He didn't have the look he had when we had our argument in our class. He looked happy to see me, which made me cry. Next thing I knew Michael had his arms around me. I pushed him away. I needed to tell him what I was feeling. "Michael, I need you to just listen before you say anything. I'm so sorry for what I did to you. I love you so much but I felt something for Max and I couldn't stop what I was feeling. I know you probably want nothing to do with me. I know you and everyone else blames me for all that have happened to our group. I so sorry Michael, how can…." I couldn't finish the rest of the sentence because Michael had pulled me into the most passionate kiss. I looked up into Michael's and saw pure love not hate. "Maria, I'm so sorry you feel like I blame you for everything. I'm also really sorry about your eye. I didn't mean to hit you. I never wanted to hurt you like that. I love you so much Maria. Plus none of the other know what happened they just think we all had a fight." ***Two Days Later*** Here I sit in Michael's apartment waiting for him to get home from helping out Alex. I'm waiting for him in his bed. I haven't wanted anything more then I want Michael right now. I hear the keys in the door and hear the door open and close. "What the hell, oh come on not again." I can hear him say. I try to stifle a laugh because his tone a voice. I see Michael walking towards his bedroom so I call to him in the sexy voice I have. "Come here Space boy." He looks up with a huge smile on his face. "Are you sure you're ready for this Maria because I've been waiting for you." "I've never been more sure about anything in my whole life. I never wanted anything more then this Michael." Michael walked over to the bed and started kissing me. The kiss was the most passionate I've ever had from Michael and it felt wonderful. We didn't mess around with four play because we have done enough of that in our relationship. "Michael wait." I said breathlessly "What's wrong Maria?" He asked gently "I needed to tell you that I love you Space Boy." "I love you too" ***One Month Later*** Well Michael and I are still going strong, we still fight like we use to but we love to make up afterwards. I still have feelings for Max but not as strong as the ones I have Michael. Liz and Max have made up and they are back together. Liz and I still aren't as close as we were. Michael and Liz will not leave Max and I alone in room together which I find amusing. It has been almost 2 months since me and Max got caught. But there is a problem I missed my period this month and I've never missed a period in my life. So I took that pregnancy test that I bought today. One strip means negative, two strips means positive. Well here goes nothing to check out the results. "Oh shit, what am I gonna do. I have to tell Michael but I have to wait till after I see the doctor, Wait can I see a doctor." I said out loud. I have to ask someone what to do. I know I'll call Max. "Hello Evans residents." "Hello Mrs. Evans this is Maria is Max home?" "Yes he is hold on let me get him." "Maria what's up?" "Max I need to talk but not over the phone can we meet somewhere it's an emergency." "Sure meet me at the park in 20 minutes" "Okay see you their Max." ***Twenty Minutes Later At the Park*** "Maria what is the emergency." "Max I'm pregnant, I need to know that it is okay to go to the doctors." "Wait, It's not mine is it." "No, I'm only a month late and it has been 2 months since our affair." "Well, I don't know but we can go to the doctors and I will go just in case something might happen." "Okay I have an appointment tomorrow after school. Meet me in the school parking lot and try to keep Liz from coming with you." "I can handle that she has to work tomorrow after school. What about Michael?" "He has to work too." "That is easy will just drop them off then say something about not feeling well and I'll offer to take you home." "See you tomorrow Max." "See ya Maria." |
