Welcome Home, Max

SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 4!!! In the A/N

A/N: I played the 4th episode and I must say that is made me cry on three occasions. The first was when paralyzed Chloe wanted us to end her life. I chose to do it and when she said "I love you, Max" I lost it and put my controller down. Second was when they found Rachel's dead body buried in the junkyard and Chloe started to cry and it just pained me to see her so devastated. But I'd like to point out that the doe was standing right on top of where Rachel's body was in the second episode while Max was searching for bottles before you can take a picture of it. Lastly, at the end when Chloe is shot by Mr. Jefferson, I was very very upset but, I have hope that Max will use the photo that Warren took to save Chloe in episode 5. We'll just have to see how this all ends.

Max was laying on her couch that had just been added to her living room as of yesterday and she finally set up her internet connection. Also, her HD TV made it to her new apartment so that she wouldn't be totally bored during her stay in Arcadia Bay. She had her laptop in her lap, currently editing the photo she took of her blue haired friend a day earlier. Some effects were added then removed, then she chose a filter that made it chiaroscuro. Max actually liked it, even though it gave a darker mood. She saved it before finding some other way to tweak the photo. As she was clicking through some filters her phone buzzed more times than once in the next minute. Max smiled, knowing exactly who it was.

Chloe: Max with the gun! Marry me.

Chloe: Kidding.

Chloe: Well, unless you really want to.

Max: It would be nice to see what you are like on top...Hm I'll think about it 

Chloe: So you're a bottom?  

Max: Not always ;) 

Chloe: NO EMOJI You are too old for that shit 

Max: And you're too old for 'hella'

Chloe: Touche Maxi-pad

Chloe: Anyway, you wanna come over and chill in my room for a while

Chloe: Unfortunately, step-douche is here

Max: Sure, see you there in 30?

Chloe: Cool 

It's absolutely amazing to have her back in my life again, it makes me feel like a total kid. Huh, if only I could go back...She wasn't in much clothing so she hurried into her room to get ready. Though it was extremely cold in her apartment she was only in her underwear, the brunette was going to change, but she just really wanted to put some filters on her photo of Chloe. Max nearly tripped trying to get some pants on not being able to wait to make it to Chloe's place. After getting dressed she put her digital camera on her desk and put her analog in the bag. When she went to exit the room she remembered to check if she had the necklace on. Her hand reached up and she felt the cold, gold colored metal against her fingertips, her face dropped slightly. With a quick shake of her head she dispelled the thoughts and made her way out of her apartment.

Again, like usual she didn't take her car just preferring to walk her way to places. The walk wasn't too long in her opinion, because time seemed to fly by her at times, but at others it's like it's standing still in one of her worst moments. Max passed Blackwell, not daring to glance at it although it still felt like there was a dark presence trying to plague her attitude with negative emotions. Turning up her music, she let the song drown out any background noise. I want to forget so badly...

Walking along the sidewalk she took a small moment to observe the beach across the street she was walking along. The waves lapped at the sand, small pieces of wood and branches laid along the shoreline. Even though the streets were a bit noisy, she could still hear the water hit the sand after she took her earbuds out. Her blue eyes closed as she took a long inhale, trying to relax her muscles.
