"I love you too," she retorts cheerfully, grinning. He laughs as he leaves the kitchen, going towards his room. She watches him leave before turning back to face the television.

She picks up the remote control and flips through the channels, finding one that plays football. The game currently being played is about halfway through its second half.

She switches it off before putting it back on the table where it had been sitting previously and stands from the couch. She heads towards Max's room and enters it once she gets there.

She finds him standing by the closet with his clothes strewn across the floor. She moves over to stand next to him as he starts to sort through his clothes.

She looks down at him as he searches for something, seemingly deep in thought.

"What's on your mind?" she asks curiously. He looks up at her, a small smile playing at his lips.

"Nothing in particular," he says honestly. She raises an eyebrow at him.

"Really?" she murmurs sceptically. He nods slightly in c

    "Are you alright?" he asks cautiously. She nods slightly. He kneels in front of her, shining the flashlight in her face. Max flinches slightly, closing her eyes instinctively."You hurt yourself?" he asks incredulously. She shakes her head."No, my ankle got caught in a root," she explains quickly. He nods, his expression relaxing slightly as he stands again."Where are you headed?" he asks her, still examining her with a serious expression. She bites her bottom lip, unsure of what answer she wants to give him. She knows that she has to tell the truth. She also knows that this is probably the least believable story she could possibly come up with."Home," she finally mumbles sheepishly. He raises his eyebrows slightly."Your parents?" he inquires. She swallows nervously and nods slightly. He studies her for another minute before nodding."Okay," he eventually says. She looks at him confused. "Come on. We need to get you checked out.""What? No! I'm fine!" she argues vehemently. The

    "I guess..." she trails off uncertainly. She closes her eyes momentarily. "Thanks for being here anyway," she tells him. He smirks and nods. He rests his head against hers.After a couple of minutes, he notices that Max is getting more and more restless with every passing second. His eyes drift towards her leg. He reaches across the couch cushion and grabs it, tugging on the edge of the blanket. He pulls it away from the side of her leg and holds his breath as he inspects her leg carefully. The cut had already started to scab up a little bit so hopefully, it wouldn't scar over. He releases the breath he was holding once he feels satisfied that everything's alright. He lets out a sigh of relief before placing both of his hands against the sides of her leg. He tries to push the fabric upwards gently, not wanting to aggravate the injury further. She winces slightly as he moves the material upwards a little higher."Ow," she complains quietly. He furrows his brows together worriedly

    "I'm okay," she mumbles. He kisses her forehead lovingly before setting her down on the couch again."Let's go sleep," he suggests. She smiles."Alright," she agrees. The two of them climb under the covers and lay facing each other. She curls into his side and rests her head on his shoulder. Mike wraps his arm tightly around her and presses his lips against her temple."Thank you," she whispers. "For everything.""Anything for you, beautiful," he whispers back.The following morning, Max wakes up first. She yawns widely and stretches out her arms. A smile spreads across her face as she realizes that no pain has returned to her leg, which means she must've healed completely last night.She rubs her eyes lightly before looking over at Mike and smiling. He stirs a little before opening his eyes and gazing down at her with a sleepy smile on his face."Morning," he greets softly. Max hums happily as she reaches up and brushes her fingers across his cheek."Good morning," she responds sleep

    "All those people that's already over. I feel so guilty for all of it. Even if I knew who I am now, I still wouldn't feel safe. Not knowing who I really am terrifies me." He frowns."If only there was some way we could bring your memories back," he murmurs. She sighs."I don't know," she responds quietly. "Maybe once you heal, things will change for me." She looks up at him and tries to give him a reassuring smile. "Hopefully I won't be such a werewolf anymore." She pauses. "What about you?" she asks him. "Any strange dreams last night?"He shakes his head slightly."Nope," he confirms.They continue to sit in silence for a while longer. Finally, he breaks it by clearing his throat."Can I ask you something?" he asks uncertainly."Of course you can," she says. He clears his throat again."Why are you always so nice?" he inquires curiously. "Like, most of the time I see you being mean or sarcastic or annoyed, and you always try to make it better. But today..." he pauses unsurely.

    "Hello?" Max asks sleepily as she wakes up. She blinks confusedly for a couple of seconds before realizing that she isn't at home. The room that surrounds her is unfamiliar, and her whole body aches as she sits up groggily. "Hello!" he hears him call her excitedly. "Are you alright? Where are you?" She feels a lump form in her throat. She doesn't recognize the voice that's speaking to her."Hi? Is that you?" she asks cautiously, trying not to sound scared. She swallows nervously."Yeah it's me," He replies happily. She can hear shuffling on the other end before she hears footsteps coming towards the phone. "Hey," he continues, "are you okay? Do you remember what happened?" He sounds very worried.She can't help but notice the fear lacing his voice as well."Yeah I'm fine," she lies. "Just a bit sore from sleeping in the car, but nothing too bad." She hears he sigh in relief. "Is something wrong?""No, nothing's wrong," he assures her. She raises an eyebrow."Then why are you call

    She's lost in her thoughts for quite a while after that, only being pulled out of them when her cell phone rings. She reaches for it, surprised to see that Max has called her."Hi," she answers when she sees the name of the caller flashing on the screen. "How are you?" She asks, hoping that Max will answer quickly so she can get the conversation over with."Fine, thanks," Max replies. Max is silent for a moment before asking. "Did you manage to find anything on the guy who attacked you? Do you know who he is? Did you see anyone who looked suspicious in the park?"Max's question surprises her."What guy?" she asks confusedly."The one who attacked you last week," Max repeats impatiently. "You said he tried to mug you, right?"Max frowns slightly as she realizes what his means."Yeah I saw him," she mutters before asking in surprise. "Why didn't you say anything before? Aren't you supposed to report all these kind of things? If I remember correctly, it's your job, isn't it?"Max chuck

    "Do you think that maybe, just maybe he has something to do with all this?" Max asks quietly. "Like maybe he's actually the one behind all the attacks?""Maybe," he shrugs. "Who knows? Maybe he doesn't even know what we're looking for, but we have an idea of what we're dealing with, which is good. If he has something to do with it, he deserves whatever we decide to do with him."Max nods in agreement, but she remains unconvinced by his words. She remembers the look in his eyes that morning after he'd shown her his note. She can still remember his terrified expression when he realized what he'd done. His fear was obvious when she asked him why he hadn't told her about it sooner. He clearly felt guilty about it, but he didn't seem to think that it was his fault. In fact, he seemed to think that it had been entirely his doing. She wonders what would happen if he showed up at her house tomorrow instead of coming here. Would she believe the same thing he did and kick him out of the ho

"Why would I be nervous?""Because you keep writing things down in your notes without telling me," Max points out."Hm, well maybe I would've told you if I'd known that you were gonna read them," he mutters under his breath.She ignores him as she continues reading. She's not surprised to see that he writes almost every single day, yet every single entry is about something completely different than the last entries. This particular entry makes Max stop completely as she stares at it blankly."I think…I think I'm starting to fall for you." "Wait, what?" Max exclaims.

    “It will be alright, babe. Everything is going to be fine.” Sophie tried to breathe deeply, trying to regain her composure. She knew that nothing was going to be okay if her parents won’t visit the baby, but that wasn’t going to be happening anytime soon. “We’re going to raise this baby together. Your parents are coming to us. I won’t let them leave us behind.” Sophie laughed softly. “That sounds like something a supervillain would say.” Max laughed along with her, kissing Sophie’s forehead.They sat side by side on the edge of the pool. Max was playing with Sophie’s hair absentmindedly, stroking her hair through the wet strands. The water glistened underneath them, reflecting their faces. Sophie had her chin resting on Max’s shoulder. It was peaceful, just the two of them in the middle of nowhere, with nowhere to be except for this private place where they could hide from everyone and everything. Max’s house was huge, and there were so many rooms to explore, but Sophie and Max fo

    Sophie feels so happy with her husband Max, she kept kissing him so passionately in his office, that Max finally asked for a break and they made out on the couch until Sophie felt so breathless it was almost painful to stand up straight. They were still holding hands, Sophie could feel Max’s calloused fingers around hers, as he walked them towards their bedroom. He pressed against Sophie, making his way down slowly until they reached the bed where he pushed her onto the mattress. Sophie giggled as he crawled over her. She felt like she could burst with happiness every time he came home from work after long days at the hospital, when it had taken him hours to go home and rest. He told her that he always needed a few minutes before going home, to calm himself before facing her, because seeing her face was such a beautiful sight. He said that even though she looked tired, her eyes were sparkling like stars. Sophie knew that he didn’t lie to her. His green eyes sparkled as well, and

    “I love you, Sophie” he said huskily, staring deeply into her eyes. She smiled at him lovingly before she pressed her lips against his once more, pulling him even closer. She reached down and grabbed hold of the hem of his T-shirt, pulling it over his head quickly and tossing it to the floor. He stood up from the bed and pulled his boxers off. Once his pants and shoes were discarded to the ground, he crawled back up on top of her. He held himself above her, hovering over her body. He stared down at her, studying her features carefully. “Are you sure about this?” He mumbled, staring intently into her eyes. She smiled sweetly and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Yes. I want you so badly. I’ve waited too long. Let me show you exactly what I mean.” She whispered. “Show me.” He whispered back. She slipped one of her legs between his knees and placed both of her hands around his neck. With a swift movement, she yanked on his hair and rolled onto her back. “Oh yeah, Max!” She cried

    “Missed you too.” She replied. The next moment, she felt Max’s hands traveling slowly up her back. When he was touching her, goosebumps appeared on her arms. He noticed how tense she became and immediately stopped moving. He stared at her for a long time without saying a word. She raised her head and looked directly into his eyes. His expression told her everything. He was completely mesmerized by her, and he didn’t know how to react anymore. “Max, please…” Sophie breathed, breaking the silence. She needed him right now. “I’ll stop.” He mumbled. “No, Max. Please don’t stop, I need you.” She pleaded, looking at him with those big beautiful blue eyes. Her hands were gripping onto the sides of his face, pleading with him to not stop. His eyes softened and he took his hands off of her and moved them behind her neck. He pulled her closer and connected their lips together. As soon as their lips touched she felt her entire body shiver. It felt nice. Her arms slowly started circling h

    Max broke the kiss first, his breathing heavily. He kept his head close to hers, his eyes staring deep into hers. He caressed her cheeks with his hands and smiled. Her eyes were filled with tears. She was crying. He wiped away the tears that flowed from her eyes with his thumb. “Are you okay?” He asked worriedly. “Yea. I’m fine,” she replied softly, sniffling. “Just...just happy.” She said, letting out a quiet sob. He pulled her closer to him and wrapped his arms around her. “Me too, I’m just really happy that I can hold you in my arms again.” He whispered against her hair. She looked up at him and kissed his nose. She couldn’t help smiling. “You’re so adorable.” She whispered, nuzzling her nose against his. He smiled. He knew exactly why she was acting like that. She was nervous. She was scared that he might leave her if she confessed what she really felt. He understood perfectly well why she was acting that way. But that wasn’t something he was going to allow to happen. He

    Max shivered involuntarily and Sophie immediately put her arms around him. They stood like that for a minute or two, feeling each other’s warmth, enjoying the feeling of the other person beside them. Once they had calmed down, they went upstairs to get changed out of their damp clothes. After they had gotten dressed, they were seated on the couch in the living room watching TV. Sophie was resting her head against his shoulder and was looking at him expectantly. He had an idea and a grin crept across his face. He gently leaned forward and kissed her forehead. She blushed lightly. She looked up at him questioningly and raised an eyebrow. “What’s this for?” She asked curiously. Max smiled happily. “It’s nothing special. It’s just a thank you kiss. A very special thanks. Now go and get ready, we’re going to go somewhere very special tomorrow.” He said smiling happily. Sophie jumped to her feet. She hugged him tightly. “Yes! Thank you!” She whispered excitedly. He chuckled and held he

    “Do you wanna talk about what’s bothering you? We don’t need to talk if you don’t want us to.” He spoke softly, hoping that she wouldn’t hate him for asking. Sophie’s shoulders dropped a bit. “No, we should probably talk. It will make everything easier for both of us if we talk it out.” She replied quietly. Max nodded. As soon as he parked the car in their parking lot, he turned off the ignition. Sophie looked confused as well as nervous. She opened her door slowly. Max grabbed her hand before she closed it. She looked back at him with a questioning gaze. “Are you sure? You don’t have to do this if you’re uncomfortable.” He assured her. Sophie looked thoughtful for a minute. “I just wish my mom wouldn’t make a big deal out of everything. She’s never liked me dating guys.” She confessed. “My father and my sister always support me and they’ve been great about my dating life, but they always treat me different when I bring boys home. Mom always says that I’m not good enough for any

    Max kept staring at Sophie, the most beautiful girl he ever seen, she always looks so perfect for him and he always want to kiss her. She was smiling in his direction, which made his heart flutter inside his ribcage. She was the first one to notice his stare. “Hey, don’t look like you just saw a ghost. You’re making me nervous!” She laughed. Her laugh is beautiful too but Max didn’t mind it that much because her laugh was always contagious, even though he knows she probably wasn't talking about laughing at him. He smiled back at her, trying not to blush. “Sorry. I’m just admiring how gorgeous you are today. And your smile is so bright! I can already tell you will make many handsome suitors when you graduate this university in the next five years!” He said with a cheesy grin plastered on his face as if he would actually have any chance of winning her hand. He’s been crushing on her since their first meeting. She was the one who introduced them. They were standing in line waiting

    Still, the moment that he met Ms. Anderson, he realized that he couldn’t hold on to all the negative feelings that he had harbored for a while. After all, she didn’t treat him any differently, except for her son. She treated him the same way she would treat anybody else, no matter if they were born here or not. And so far, she had never once done anything to indicate that she would be unhappy with the situation he had found himself in.“Well, I’m glad to hear that. Now, do you want something to drink? I’ll get it ready right now. Do you want to sit down anywhere or should I go upstairs and get the glasses out for you?” she questioned, looking at him.“You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll be fine by myself,” he said, waving his hand dismissively.With that said, she got up from the sofa, headed towards the stairs, and headed up.Max looked around the living room. It seemed as if everything had remained intact throughout the years, although he knew that there were signs of changes ov
