Chapter 27: End 2
"Slow Dance!!"
Coach took the mic from DJ and scream into it loudly. DJ had no other choice but to play slow music. he knew if he didn't Coach might flip his equipment set.
"Hey come on let's go" just as the music started to play, Lydia dragged Max into the crowd. previously Max only danced a bit and got bored. although it was fun when Lydia around, like in the previous life Max didn't like to socialize that much.
When Max joined the crowd with Lydia, he caught the sight of Allison and Scott. he just smiled and start to follow Lydia's footsteps.
Lydia couldn't put her chin on Max's shoulders, only hands around his neck. since Max bit taller than average at his age. Lydia could only place her head on his chest listing to the heartbeat. feeling his hands on her waist Lydia felt blessed. (AN: if you want to know think as Max and Derek has the same hight)
"What are you thinking?" Max whispered gently into Lydia's ears. although he didn't feel any emotional ups or downs he knew Lydia was thinking something.
"Nothing, it's just you came to my life so fast, sometimes I have a feeling I don't know you very well"
Max felt when she said that grip around his neck bit tightening. maybe she was nervous and trying to hide it from him.
'Banshees are really close to nature and emotions, no wonder she feels that'
Max never intend to hide his secrets from Lydia. it's just that, the right time hasn't come up yet.
"Look at me," he said seriously looking straight into her eyes "Everything you know about me is real and true. only a few things you don't know yet. don't worry I promise I will tell you when the time is right."
Lydia nodded smiling and said "I believe you"
Max also smile back and accompany her until the song slowly come to an end. Max lean on her while Lydia closed her eyes, getting ready for the incoming kiss.
The music faded, nothing more remained between them. Max closed eyes submerging himself border between love and pleasure. they created their own world, nothing could disturb them.
Well...except Coach Finstock!
"Hey! You two! go somewhere else"
When Max and Lydia separated they saw Coach glaring at them fiercely. Max didn't back down, he too looked back annoyingly.
'I should compel his not to interrupt my times with Lydia'
While Max thought to reprogram coach, the coach noticed more serious matter than Max and Lydia.
"You! McCall...!! I saw you.....stop, don't run...you can run but you can't hide" he screamed chasing after the shadow of Scott. he totally forgot about annoyed Max and Lydia.
"Hey, stay here I will go help Scott," Max said helping Lydia to sit down.
"Alright, come back quickly okay" Lydia nodded smiling slightly.
Max gave a kiss on her cheek before going after Coach and Scott. when he finally found them, Scott was holding Danny's hands in a dancing pose. while Coach confused about how to react when all around him looking at them. if he chases away Scott now, people might think he against Gay people. but Scott not supposed to be here.
"Uncle how about you compromise rules for a bit? there is no harm in it" Max approached them with a friendly smile. he winked at Scott signaling him not to worry. while Coach lost his focus for instance before regaining it.
"Fine.....! but you can leave Danny" Max's Mind Compulsion worked like a charm. although Coach had the same annoying face he ultimately listened to Max.
"Thank you, Max," Scott said after coach long gone "I'm going to find Allison, see you two"
After thanking Max, Scott didn't waste a single second. he ran away searching for Allison. Max sighed and looked at Danny beside him. the guy was looking at him with expectant.
"Nope, can't do it dude" Max had nothing against homosexuality. however, he didn't swing that side.
*****
Little after Max left Lydia received a Text. surprisingly it was from her Ex-boyfriend Jackson. Lydia hesitated a bit before leaving the venue.
Although she doesn't have any feelings for Jackson anymore, she thought if she meets Jackson with Max, it might hurt Max. after all, she still has the key of Jackson's house with her. this trip will be the perfect opportunity to end everything between them.
Jackson told her to come to the lacrosse field. Lydia was told he was waiting for her to arrive. with a thought to go back as soon as possible Lydia hurridly approach open field.
"Jackson? where are you?" seeing the empty field of the grassland, Lydia called out.
*Thak!*
When she near the middle of grassland, suddenly one of the stadium lamps ablaze. Lydia was startled, she looked intently toward the light. but, no one came under her watchful gaze.
"Jackson is that you?" regretting her decision to come alone Lydia decide not to stay anymore.
"I don't have all day to watch your nonsense. here is your key, I don't need it anymore"
She hoped responding never came. Lydia placed the key on green grass and turn to leave. she didn't even want to know the reason, Jackson called her here.
Just then every stadium lamp lit up simultaneously. it was as if the sun rises the middle of the night. the sudden change of light caused Lydia to rais the guard against it. when she felt her eyes use to the light Lydia opened them and looked around. however, it was the same, no one was present.
"You look nice today"
Suddenly a voice came from the previously empty field. Lydia was sure she looked 360 degrees around and no one was there. but now stood a clean shaved middle-aged man.
Although, the distance between them a bit far, with the help of lights Lydia had a clear view.
"Who are you? where is Jackson?"
Lydia felt scared looking at the unknown man. he was looking at her calmly without any expression. now, she wants nothing more than to run toward Max, where she feels safe.
The man started to walk toward Lydia. she felt huge pressure crushing down on her. her instinct scream, telling her to run away. but for some reason, Lydia didn't have any confidence running away from this man.
"Jackson isn't coming," Man started to speak, slowly narrowing the gap between Lydia and him "Actually, he sold you off for the power, I advise you to don't trust him in the future"
Lydia didn't understand sold her for power part. but she knew Jackson is one behind this whole incident. since the man knew Jackson it wasn't hard to guess.
"What do you want? I don't have anything" Lydia backed away keeping her eyes on the man.
"Oh! but I think you do have something I need. it's just you don't know it yet"
The Man weighted his neck slightly to an angle looking at her.
"Tell me something Lydia, do you familiar with the term called Shapeshifter?"
"I-I don't know," Lydia said with fear in he eyes. she noticed no matter hard she tried she couldn't move away from this man.
All the sudden Lydia turn away from the man intending to run away. she threw away all the feeling she had before, her guts overtaken by the fear. but surprisingly that man was already in front of her, blocking the way. her fear deepened once more. she couldn't think how he appeared before her just in seconds.
"Lydia, be a good girl, tell me what Shapeshifter means," Man tried to sound kind, however, this made Lydia further creep out.
Without no way out she steeled her heart to answer. since she was late, maybe Max will come to find her. calling him on phone wasn't an option anymore.
"The most common form of shapeshifting myths is that of therianthropy, which is the transformation of a human being into an animal. werewolves or vampires or conversely, of an animal into human form." (AN: I took this from Google-San ok!)
Lydia answered with a textbook explanation. even with the dire situation she was in her genius mind never failed her.
"Exactly, no wonder they call you a genius" this time he started to push Lydia back to the middle of Stadium. Lydia understood he wasn't going to let her go.
"What do you want from me?"
"Nothing, I just want you to help me with something if the things come to a bad end"
For instance, Lydia saw a slight change of expression. but man was pro when it comes to poker face. next moment, Lydia saw something unbelievable, Man's eyes turn bright Red. his face changed, eyebrows sank, four sharp fangs, two in upper and two in the lower jaw, brought a vicious look into him.
"No need to scream Lydia, there is no one to save you"
Seeing Lydia trying to scream for help, the man finally smiled. but his voice was animalistic, the face was scary and there was something about it made, Lydia hard to look away.
As a genius as she was, with all the questions man asked, and everything happening here, it wasn't hard to connect dots.
"And why would say that?"
Suddenly from behind Lydia, she heard a familiar voice. it was carefree and lively. with tears on her eyes, Lydia looked back and run toward Max's embrace without care.
"Why did you come here alone? such a naughty girlfriend"
Max teased, shaken, Lydia with an amused tone. he removed his blazer and put it on Lydia's shaking body. then he kissed her forehead to dissolve her fear.
In fact, Max succeeded in his attempt. his action caused girl's fear melt away leaving nothing but relief and love.
"Since you know about supernatural, Let me show you, what I was hiding"
He broke away Lydia from the hug and looked at her in the eyes. she was obviously confused but Max saw some understanding flash across her beautiful eyes.
Max nodded her and looked at angry and confused Peter.
"This time I'm going to beat the crap out of you. you dare to use my wife as a fail safe? well then try not to die"
Max brought out his fangs and claws with bright Ruby eyes. He looked at Lydia, she had wide eyes with mouth ajar, however, fear wasn't apparent.
Satisfied Max looked at Peter, the guy was burning with fury. he was going for full-on transformation. however, Max didn't want that to happen.
Before Peter could transform, Max lunch himself toward Peter without pause. Max didn't like to Transform into White Wolf. that could ruin the perfect cloths he just brought.
