Maxine Crowd

Max woke up to the sound of Alex running around. He looked stressed and he sounded stressed.
"What is going on?" Max asked, because she was used to Alex being calm in the mornings. He had been for the last two weeks at least.
"We have an interview today and I’m looking for some nice clothes to have" he said and sighed.
"Nice clothes? Why not only have what you usually have?" she asked and sat up. Her hamburger tank almost showing off her chest, but she didn’t care. Alex would always have jeans on, and a tee. Why would this be special?
"We are having it on tv-show, and I want to look nice and… That reminds me, do you have a dress?" he asked.
"Dress? Yes of course I have a dress Alex. I might like jeans and vans, but I do have a dress" she said.
"Good, go take a shower and put it on. you’re coming with me" he said.
"What? Why?" she asked and stared at him.
"Because they would want you to be there, and… It would be weird if you weren’t there, since we’re now engaged and everything and… I thought I could take you out on a date afterwards" he said and sighed.
"Date?" Max asked.
"It’s just because I would probably have a photographer or two after me, after the show. So I thought I might take you on a date. Two birds with one stone" he said and grinned a little.
"Well I guess I better take a shower then" Max said and stretched her tired body.

Max got out from the shower and straightened her hair, put on some light makeup. Simple eyeliner and light color on the lips. She struggled with her black tights. Almost fell and hit her head in the process, but they managed to come up over her hips and sit perfectly. Then she turned to her dress and swallowed. A pink dress with black polka dots on. She sighed and pulled it over her hair and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked cute. For a second she even thought she looked beautiful, but the thought was pushed away when she heard Alex let out a small growl in the bedroom. She looked towards the door, put on her feather necklace and a braided wristband. With one last look in the mirror and fingers through her hair she walked out and walked inside the bedroom and saw Alex. He was dressed in a white tee that was loose, and he had a black blazer over it. His tight american jeans and he was doing something with his hair. When she walked inside the room he stopped and stared at her. She stared back.
"What? Is it that weird?" she said and looked down on herself. He just stared at her and then he shook his head.
"God no, you’re… stunning" he said and she got surprised.
"Okay" she said and didn’t believe him.
"I think I would like to marry you for real" he whispered and stared, and she laughed. She walked over and took her black canvas bag, and looked at him again.
"Are we going or not?" she asked.

They got to the studio and the others was there as well, including Cassadee. She greeted Max with a quick hug and a bright, shining smile that made Max a little bit jealous of her beauty. But she quickly brushed it away.
"Not everyone can be beautiful" she thought and let out a small sigh. Alex was talking to Rian and some other guy when Jack came up to her.
"Wow, you look stunning" he said and looked at her from head to toe.
"I would look better if I had heels, but I don’t feel comfortable in them" she said and looked down on her black vans. He chuckled and handed her a glass of water.
"How come you put on a dress?" he asked.
"Alex is taking me out on a date after this, so he wanted me to dress up" she said and smiled a little.
"Wow, you two are really going for this. Where is he taking you?" he asked.
"To be honest… I have no clue at all" Max said and shrugged. Rian and Alex joined them and Rian gave her a quick hug. She was amazed how fast they had accepted her into their little group of friends.
"5 minutes until we’re on, girls you can come with me" a man said and pushed Max and Cassadee towards the crowd. They were placed in the front row and a few of All Time Low’s fans stared at them.
"You’ll get used to it" Cassadee whispered when she saw how uncomfortable Max got because of the stares.
"I hope so" she said and nodded.

The crowd cheered when the show started and All Time Low opened with Lost in Stereo, and the whole crowd sang with them. Max stared at the guys and she was a little bit amazed by their energy. Rian was smiling the whole time and Zack was in his own world, rocking his fingers over the bass and just being himself. Jack and Alex was going nuts and never had she seen them like this. This was so different and the crowd sang louder and louder with every word.
"Aren’t they amazing?" Cassadee said and smiled.
"Yeah" Max said and just stared. Alex met her eyes and he grinned a little and she chuckled a little and shook her head, and to her surprise he winked at her. Of course the fans thought he winked at them and some of them screamed, but Max didn’t care. She smiled. They finished the song and went to sit down on the guest sofa to begin the interview.
"All Time Low everybody" the host said and gestured towards them. The crowd cheered and the guys waved a little.
"So guys, you’ve just released a reissue of Don’t Panic" the host said an picked up a physical copy of the album. The guys nodded.
"I will have you sign this and we will have a small competition for the copy" he said and winked towards the crowd, who screamed. then he turned to the guys again and he looked at them.
"So you just got back from a tour in Europe, and there was a lot of things happening over there" he said.
"A few things yes" Jack said and chuckled.
"From what I’ve heard you got robbed in Italy?" he asked.
"Jack and Rian was out one night and a couple of kids decided that they looked rich, and robbed them of their money. Except that Rian and Jack only had like 10 euro, which is like 13 dollars. So it wasn’t a big loss" Zack said. Alex laughed as well and Rian shook his head with a smile.
"Yeah, it was really scary" Jack said and winked.
"And some of your fans got up on stage in Austria, causing a small riot" the host said, and Max giggled. She had heard about that. Their fans had gotten up on stage and a few of them had ripped almost all of Jack’s clothes apart and tried to do the same with Alex. Rian and Zack got away but Alex and Jack couldn’t leave at all since the fans had them in their grip.
"That in other words, was scary" Alex said and nodded.
"tell me about it" Jack said and shook his head. Then the host shivered.
"But there is one thing that everyone is talking about right now, that happened in Europe" he said. Max felt the stares on her again and shivered.
"The engagement to the mystery girl" the host said. Alex chuckled and nodded. He scratched his head a little and glanced over at Max.
"Yeah, I got engaged" Alex said.
"And from the looks at it, it is no other than the pretty lady in pink over there" the host said and the camera turned to Max and Cassadee. Immediately Max blushed and got wide eyes, and Cassadee giggled.
"Yes, that is Max" Alex said and nodded.
"Max?" the host asked.
"Maxine" Alex said.
"So how did you and Max meet?" he asked.
"It was a little bit after my fifth birthday actually. We played in the mud behind our houses and when a few kids picked on me she scared them away" Alex said and chuckled.
"So you are childhood friends?" the host asked, and looked at Alex.
"Yeah, and when she scared them away I remember I said ‘I will marry you one day’ and here I am… Engaged to the woman I promised myself to" Alex said and looked at Max. Max was surprised Alex even remembered that. Because she barely remembered it. She stared at him and then she smiled, and he smiled back.

After the interview they signed the album and then they got backstage, where Max and Cassadee waited.
"That was cute" Cassadee said and lightly punched Alex.
"Well duh" he said and chuckled. Max shook her head and laughed a little as well and Alex turned to her.
"Well I promised you a date, didn’t I?" he said and held out his arm. She smiled and took his arm, and they headed outside for their car.
