"Now that we've got that mushy shit out of the way," Chloe said, breaking the silence. "I feel like stage diving!" Chloe really had changed since Max last saw her, and they had only reunited today, so Max admired Chloe's ability to put the past behind her.

Chloe changed the song on her hi-fi, but not the CD. The room sprang into life with sound, as screechy guitar blasted through the speakers. "You're crazy!" Max told Chloe, and she was. The music wasn't her style, but Chloe's dancing was, her turquoise hair swaying as she did. "Yup, I'm fucking insane in the brain!" Chloe always was a goofy nerd. A hot one at that. Max knew she had feelings for Chloe as soon as she came back to Oregon, she was all Max could think about. Max's eyes were on Chloe, but her thoughts were elsewhere, until: "Chloe, are you up there?" It was Madsen. "Yo, dude, turn it off!"

Max sprang into action and moved over to the hi-fi to silence the music. Another call came from downstairs "How many times have I told you to stop blasting that punk shit?!" Chloe only yelled back "Dude, the music's not even on!" Expecting that to be the end of it. "Asshole." She said in a lower tone. That wasn't the end of it. "Chloe, I'm coming up, we need to talk" Step-ass replied. Chloe knew he would flip his shit if he saw Max, so she told her to hide. She went over to Chloe's closet while she stalled, and, after a bit of rewind, got in. Madsen bust his way in, still in uniform, and shit went down. He found Chloe's weed and blamed her for stealing one of his guns. They argued back and forth for a while, until Chloe snapped at him, and stepped forward. She was met with a slap across the face. Max. Was. Seething.

In that instant, all of Max's shyness was flushed away, and she threw open the closet door. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" Madsen was shocked and she saw Chloe's aggression die as she stood behind Max. "Chloe's your daughter now and you think just cause you're bigger than her you can attack her?" Max didn't expect an answer. "You were fucking soldier, what fucking threat to you is a joint? Now you're a fucking security guard, and you slap girls, what the fuck?" Madsen's expression shifted to anger, but he didn't scare Max. He said "I don't appreciate strangers in my home" Max wasn't letting him off this easy "And I don't appreciate the people who are supposed to look after me, being child abusers. First Kate, and now Chloe, how long until you attack me?" She rebutted. Now Chloe butted in, not wanting Max to get any more flak. "Get the fuck out of my room, asshole. And with that, Madsen left.

"Oh my god, Max. Where did that come from? Thank you." Max was now noticeably staring into Chloe's eyes. And Chloe knew what was coming as Max leant towards her 'I can always rewind' Max thought. Their lips gently pushed together. Chloe's lips were rough and she smelt and tasted of weed. Max threw Chloe into her bed and Chloe sat up. In response, Max straddled her, and came in for another, more hungry, kiss. "That's where that came from" No rewinding this time.
