Fantastic!  I just finished the series and I have to say, it was brilliant!  I hope you continue to add to it.

Glad you liked it. Unfortunately, it's long since been over with :S.

THanks for reading and reviewing,

Maia.

Okay, so here’s the deal. Yesterday, I was at work when I was reading and then I had to leave because I lost track of time reading so I just reviewed what I had so far but I wasn’t done with the story. THEN, I got your responses, so I wanted to respond to your response first and say that I do think that I read these back in the day, but that was eight years ago, so… it does sound somewhat familiar to me that Zack killed Logan, but it was still a (pleasant) surprise. I’m glad Max doesn’t know, I think. Anyway, back to your story…

“Okay, so they hadn't been together, not even near each other for a few days. But this was absurd.

She had felt him. She had sensed his lips on hers, his fingers lingering on her neck, caressing her back, his breath, his teeth on her ear. She'd had to focus really hard not to fall off her horse.”

HOT! She could feel that?! Spectacular!

“He followed Max's movements. Damn, how anyone would think she was a man was beyond him.” That’s what I said!! You saw me! I totally said that! Thank you, Zack!

“Well, that was not entirely true. If he looked at it completely objectively, he knew she had changed her movements, the way she held herself. She was even wearing glasses and a mustache. No one would deem her particularly macho, but not feminine either.”

Whatever, Maia. What.ev.er.

“Cindy was totally caught up now in it now. "Go, girl!" she shouted.

She ignored the looks around her.

This was great.”

HAH!

“He hated to admit it, it was against his planner's mind, but the truth was the X5's performance was giving the whole thing a trace of verisimilitude that no amount of careful planning could have added. He was simply that good.”

He so is that good.

“When she showed him the ticket, he whistled and a slow smile spread on his lips. It shone so brightly that Cindy could hear the collective intake of breath even through her own fuddled mind. The boy had no right, no right at all, to have a smile like that. No one did.”

True enough, but I’m so glad anyway…

“"Can you guys not wait for a couple of hours?"

"Actually... " Alec started to say.

"Let me rephrase. WAIT for a couple of hours." Zack growled.”

Tee hee!!!

Awww, it's over. These are all so fun, Maia, and it is so freaking impressive that you can do this in your second? third? language? I can't even imagine how you do it.

Hahaha, that was great. Loved the interactions and the information in the fic. Made it very realistic and wish that this sort of thing had happened :P  Also loved Zack being in there and the dynamic between Alec, Max and himself. Awesome job :D
