Touched & Attracted
Chapter 30
Even though I’m on my own
I know I’m not alone
Cause I know there’s someone, somewhere
Praying that I make it home
- Someone, Somewhere
Outfit of the Chapter
Simple Max
Max sat in the lobby and cried. She was scared and felt helpless. Zack stared into air, so did Rian and Jack looked angry. Matt was still at the venue, trying to figure out how the fuck one of the lamps could just fall down like that.
"Please stop crying" Jack said and looked at her.
"Jack" Rian said and looked at Jack.
"No seriously… Can you stop crying?" Jack said and sounded more angry. Max looked at him and was a bit confused.
"What?" she asked.
"Can you just stop crying? You have no right to cry at all" he snapped. Zack and Rian stared at him, and then at Max. Max was really shocked.
"We’re his friends and you’re just the fake fiancé that was going to help him get rid of Bri. BUT GUESS WHAT… BRI’S GONE" he growled. She stared at him. Scared and confused.
"So you know what?" he asked and pulled out his phone.
"Jack, calm down" Rian said.
"Fuck no, here’s your 50 and now be gone" he snapped and glared at her, and showed that he had just moved 50k dollars over to her account.
"What?" she asked again.
"Didn’t you hear me? GET OUT" he growled and pointed towards the door. He dragged her up on her feet and pushed her away.
"Jack for fuck sake" Zack said but Jack pushed her out from the hospital.
"JUST LEAVE" he growled and slammed the door closed.
She sat outside the hospital, freezing because of the rain that poured down and she was scared. Really scared. She had never seen Jack so angry. But what he said was true. Bri was gone. She was no longer needed. Yet she stayed here. She stayed with Alex. She let out a sob and felt confused. Should she wait there, or go back tot the hotel? She decided to go back to the hotel so she could get back her heat.

Matt looked really surprised when he saw that she walked in, and he feared the worst when he saw that she had mascara down her cheeks and cried.
"oh god" he gasped and she shook her head.
"Jack kicked me out from the hospital, i have no idea what is going on" she cried.
"He did what?" he asked and stared at her.
"I’m just a fake fiancé… Bri’s gone so… What am I doing here anyway?" she cried and fell down to her knees. He helped her up and said they would go to the hot springs again and get her heat up.
She sat in the water and Matt waited by the door. She was still crying and she was feeling terrible. Because more and more she knew that Jack was right. Why was she there?
"I just got a call from Jack, Alex is awake" Matt said. She looked at him and he felt so bad for her. Why would Jack have said something like that?

Alex was furious at Jack for telling Max to go. Even if Jack said it was jsut in the heat of the moment because he was scared, and took it out on her, he should never had done something like that. Alex couldn’t even imagine what Max was feeling right now. Was she crying? Where had she gone? Then the door opened and Max came in with Matt. Her eyes was red, her nose was red and it looked like she was blushing. She had been crying for quite some time.
"Jack told me what he said to you" he said. She bit her lip and teared up again. He looked at her and felt so bad for her. Jack would apologize but still. So much harm had been done.
"Max… Please give me your your ring" he said. She stared at him. REally shocked. This was it. This was the end.
"What?" she asked.
"Give me your ring" he said and held out his hand. She bit her lip again, but took it off. With trembling hands she gently laid it in his hand.
"Now there is just one more thing I have to do" he said.
"Jack already gave me 50 thousand dollars" she sobbed. He looked at her. Jack had not said that to him.
"He gave you 50 thousand dollars?" he asked, and she nodded.
"Wow" he said and was really surprised. She looked at him and Matt was a bit confused as well. What was Alex doing? Matt thought he liked Max.
"Well then… But there is still one more thing I need to do" he said and looked at her. She looked back and wondered what he could possible want to say. She trembled and waited for him to say it. Tell her to go.
"Max… No… Maxine. I’m going to do this properly. It’s not going to be a fake one anymore. Maxine Clayton, would you do me the honor of becoming my real fiancé? Would you marry me?" he asked and held out the ring for her. She stared at him. Really shocked. Then she nodded.
"Yes" she stuttered and started to cry.
"Good, then come here and put on this ring for real this time" he said.
