You throw on a simple t-shirt, jeans, and your sneakers. Okay, you think to yourself, I should look better now.

As you head towards the living room to get to Max, you pass your office and stop. You turn to look at the screen and frown. Open on the screen is John's Saltine Cracker Challenge video you never finished editing. Suddenly, you snap. You go to the desk and continue editing the video. You know you're not doing it right but you don't give a crap. You deserve this, John. Trust me.

After completely sabotaging the video, you click upload and watch it go to YouTube.

Upload Complete.

You go through your entire computer and delete everything that has to do with John. All his videos, pictures, etc, gone. From now on, you no longer work for John. He said you were a bitch, so now you're going to show him a bitch.

"(Y/N)?"

Max's voice makes you jump a little as you turn to him.

"Are you okay?" He asks.

You nod your head slowly, turning back to your computer and standing up. "Yeah, I'm fine," you spit through your teeth. "I was just deleting some things I don't need anymore."

When you turn around, Max's arms wrap around you. You're taken back for a moment, surprise flowing over the anger, sadness, and pain in your veins.

"I know you're not okay, (Y/N). You don't have to lie." Max's voice rains with concern and worry. "I know it's Saturday, but do you wanna go to the offices? You can help me edit some videos, or just hang out. It doesn't matter. Just so you can be around a different environment."

You nod your head slightly. It's a little hard nodding when your head is firmly against Max's chest.

"Okay. C'mon then," Max pulls away from you and grabs your hand, leading you out of your apartment. The entire way to his car, you stare at your interlocked hands and feel heat rise on your cheeks.

Max?

~×~×~×~×~×~

You and Max sit down at his editing desk and he starts up the monitor. You notice your painting is hanging above on the wall and you smile at it. Huh. He actually hung it.

"You should show me how you edit, (Y/N)," Max speaks, breaking the silence.

"I don't know. Maybe in a bit. Is Adam here?"

"Uh, I think so. Him, Ross, Barney, and Alesa were ending a recording last I saw."

"I'm gonna go talk to them. I'll be right back."

"Alright. I'll be here, editing."

The frown in Max's voice makes you laugh as you head towards Adam's office.

The door is closed and the sign is on so you knock lightly. After hearing a 'come in' you open the door. Both Adam and Alesa are in there.

"Can I talk to you guys?" You whisper. "It's kind of important."

They both nod and you close the office door. You take in a deep breath and sigh, leaning against the door with your back.

"Adam, Alesa, I really like Max. And I wanna tell him."
