Max blinked. "No you didn't cause that. I shouldn't have said
anything to hurt you in the first place." He said quickly as if he
were embarrassed by the memory.
Max put some of his leftovers into a box. He got up and slipped the
box into his bag, he grabbed his ripped jacket, as he was planning
on stitching it up when he got home, and slung it on his shoulder.
Max glanced at Deirdre and stopped at the porch. "Uh yeah it was."
He said with a small smile. "Um, we should h-hang out more." He
said quietly and shook his head clear as he was trying to get rid
of the nervousness and uncertainty that cursed him. He smiled and
let go of Deirdre's hand. "Uh, I'll see you later."
Max touched his cheek and smiled slightly. "It's fine. Sorry I'm so
insecure." He whispered softly and gently kissed Deirdre's forehead
before turning around and waving a goodbye. "See you soon then!" He
said in a somewhat cheerful tone and walked towards Fortree.
Max smiled and waved to show he heard. He walked into the route as
he walked back home. It went pretty well... considering the
Mightyena attacked us both. He thought to himself softly.
Scar looked up from where she sat on the couch. "Hey D-.
Whoa...what happened? Why are you wet and why does your forehead
look like you got stitches?" She asked in shock.
"It was awesome! For me, at least. Max was terrified. A Mightyena
tried to attack us and I fell off a cliff into a river and hit my
head." Deirdre says nonchalantly.
Scar nodded and frowned. "Of course Max was terrified. He's a huge
scaredy Meowth." She sighed. "At least you didn't drown." She
grumbled quietly and crossed her arms.

Max walked back home and threw his bag on the ground. He growled
his leftovers and put them in the fridge.
Scar sighed, "fine I guess." She said quietly and shook her head
clear. "It was pretty quiet while out were out. How was your date?"
She asked with a sigh.
Scar nodded and smiled slightly. "That's good. Glad you had fun."
She said kindly. "You should go clean yourself up. I think I'm
gonna go get us something sweet to eat." She said kindly and got
up, she was still shocked by the fact that Deirdre and Max were
attacked, and she just needed some fresh air.
