Maxine's eyes widened at the baby news followed by friendly hug. "Wow you're gonna be a dad? That's awesome! Congratulations!"
Tucking a strand of stray hair behind her ear she smiled while she answered Brian's question. "Well I was always kind of good in art in high school and a friend of my dad's used to do paintjobs at a garage. Long story short. He basically taught me the ropes and I have to say I loved transforming a normal car in to a driving piece of art. So here I am." She grinned. "But I don't race though. I love the speed but I rather just check out the cars."
Over Brian's shoulder she saw Faye's and Jack's interaction and she couldn't help but feel a small sting of jeleausy out of old times sake, but she was happy to see him happy. Her eyes settled back on Brian and she smiled widely. "So what's the plan on the EVO? Do you think he prefers it to become pink or purple?" She asked with a laugh.

Faye smiled shrugging her shoulders "Thats just a little reminder"She laughed, might as well be honest with him, after all thats how they had done so well so far. With a smile she allowed him to tug her to his side.
"How bout you surprise me"She stated with a shrug, she didnt care what they did as long as they were far from the garage and Max.

Jack smiled and shook his head while he unlocked the car. "Nah, there's nothing to be reminded of. Don't worry."
He opened the car door and leaned on it for a moment while he furrowed his brow slightly in thought before shrugging. "I'd say beach, but that's kinda corny ain't it? But than again.. Doesn't always have to be." He smirked, referring to their first night together on the beach and shot her a teasing wink over the car's roof before he slid behind the wheel.

Faye laughed, not helping the blush that crept across her cheeks at the mention of her time with Jack on the beach their first meeting . WIth a roll of her eyes she laughed again, slideing into the passenger seat of Rome's car.
"Just dont reck it"She stated looking at him, "Rome is trusting me with this baby"She laughed, patting the interior of the car. "Speaking of cars, just get mine up and running ok, im getting a new one next week"She stated looking over at Jack.
When they finally started moving they sat in silence for a while, before she finally looked over at Jack. "she ex girlfriend of yours"

Jack shook his head and started laughing while he fired up the engine. "Hey, I was 14 or something when I banged up his car. I've learned how to drive since then, thank you very much."
He looked over at her at her next words and smirked. "It's about time you got rid of that rust bucket. I'll probably have it alive and kicking again within two days depending on Brian and his great organization skills."
While he backed the car out on to the street, the silence that fell between them was kinda awkward but when Faye finally broke it after a while, he had to say he preferred the silence. Talking past relationships with the current one wasn't always one of the best idea's, especially after those two just met. Hoping it would stay at just this question, he kept his eyes fixed on the road while he shrugged and mumbled a simple. "Yeah."

Faye nodded her head as she lent her arm agasint the door, gaze flicking towards Jack she let out a sigh, it hadnt been what she wanted to hear, but then, what had she been expecting him to lie about it. Shaking her head she looked over at him again, curiosty was killing her, licking her lips she flipped down the music.
"Was it serious"SHe questioned, she knew little about Jack or his past, and she wanted to find out more, even if it ment asking about his ex girlfriends, someone, or something had to make him scared of commitment.

At Faye's followup question, Jack shifted a little uncomfortable in his seat while he took the turn on to the main road. He really didn't like talking about ex-girlfriends unless it was for bragging purposes to friends and feeling cornered and trapped was beginning to become an understatement right about now.
"I don't know.. Depends on what you call serious, I guess." He glanced at her for a brief moment, shooting her a quick half-assed smile before he focused back on the road again and pressed down on the gas a bit more to pick up speed. The sooner he could somehow weasel his way out of this conversation the better.

Brian nodded. "Thank you, pretty exciting." he watched Faye and Jack leave in Rome's car. "There he goes." he mumbled to Max with a smirk. "Is there something I don't know or why did he just make such a quick escape?"
In regards to her question he answered. "Pink with purple hearts. I'm sure he'd dig that!"

Max's eyes followed the blonde's line of vision before she shrugged with a half smile. "Hmm, I guess the break-up wasn't pretty. But when are they ever?" She added with a sigh.
Glancing over at the EVO she grinned while she pictured what it would look like if she actually did spray it that way. "Maybe I'll add some glitters too to really finish it off." She laughed and rubbed her hands together while she looked up at Brian. "So is it just you and me now or do you have more people on the payroll?"

Faye turned her gaze onto Jack she could he almost squirming in his seat, she wanted to shrug it of and forget it, let him of, but she needed to understand what went wrong, what made him so afraid to commit to her. Smileing she reached over to squeeze his knee.
"What happpened"She questioned with a raised brow, giving him a easy bright smile.

"Rome." He nodded with a roll of the eyes. "Well, he's not on the payroll, he co-owns the plays." He leaned back against the car. "Other than that just you and me for now. We basically just moved in as you can see. I figured I'd let you get a look at it and come up with a new design and estimate, then we'll get down to business."

Jack let out a sigh when Faye didn't seem to be letting go. Women and their curiousity. As far as he was concerned Max was just another ex-girlfriend now, no matter what may or may not have happened ages ago. What was done was done.
He finally looked over at her for a moment and gave her a smile while resting a hand on hers. "Come on, babe. You don't really wanna be talking about this on your day off now, do ya? There are more fun things than digging in the past." He swallowed the 'especially mine' part while he pulled the car over at a small place by the beach.
"You hungry?"

Faye looked over at Jack, she could see the tension in his jaw and let out a mental sigh, so she was being shut out again, it didnt surprise her, he never talked of his past, yet he knew all about hers. With a small smile she shrugged her shoulders, she knew when to back of, so she squeezed his hand.
"Your right, lets have fun"she stated watching as they pulled up to a little place by the beach, it was a nice quite place, stepping out of the car she glanced at him over the hood of the car. "You bet i am"SHe laughed, walking around to him and wrapping her arms around his neck, tugging him down to her.

Jack let himself be tugged down by her while he captured her lips, glad that she was letting the subject go even though she seemed reluctant to do.
He wrapped an arm around her waist, leading her inside the place to a table by the window with a nice view on the beach and ocean and waited for her to sit down before he sat down himself. When the waitress came to take orders, he only ordered a beer for himself after Faye had given hers since it was too early for a stronger drink and he definitely needed something after Max suddenly showing up at the garage.
Finally, after a short silence, he cleared his throat and looked Faye straight in the eyes. Despite his evasive behavior earlier, he felt he did owe her something for his lack of sharing skills. "You know you got nothing to worry about, right? I mean, I know I'm a pretty sucky boyfriend most of the times with my antics, but I do..." He paused for a moment while he furrowed his brow. He was actually gonna say the three words face to face to her, something he hadn't done before. At least not literally like this. ".. I love you." He let out a breath like a weight fell of his shoulder. That wasn't too scary and actually easier than he thought.

Faye allowed herself to be led into the bar, the days earlier activities and problems far from her mind as she sat opposite him, her eyes to lift his every now and then. With a smile she looked over at the waitress ordering herself a coke, she didnt want anything to strong. At Jacks words she couldnt help but errupt into a smile, it was the first tiem that he had looked her in the eye and told her those three words, it ment more to her then she thought he would get.
"I know how hard it is ya know, letting go of the past"She stated softly, she gave him a smile, gaze flicking over to the waitress as she brought their orders. Reaching across the table she pikced up his hand and gave it a squeeze. "Just when your ready let me in you know"

Jack returned her smile with one of his own before slightly furrowing his brow again at her words while he shook his head. "Trust me when I say there's nothing to let go when it comes to my past. I don't know why you think there is.." He mumbled before putting the smile back on when he realized that he'd sounded a bit gruff. He wasn't pissed or anything, but he just didn't get why this was so important to her even if she meant well.
He nodded his thanks at the waitress when she set their drinks on the table and focused back on Faye, nodding toward her coke. "Not hungry, huh?"

Faye raised a brow, smieling, she wasnt gonna push him, with a smile, she shook her head "Not really"she commented, even though she was well aware that not ten minuets ago she had said she was, but she was craving something for sweeter then this place had to offer. Flicking her gaze back over to him she shrugged hre shoulders.
"Apparently im not the only one"she stated to his beer.

Jack looked down at his beer before grabbing it with a chuckle and shrugged. "Never said I was."
After taking a long gulp from his brew, he leaned back in his seat while he studied Faye for a moment, a grin appearing on his face. "So, on to happier and much more interesting subjects.. Did you already have a car in mind? And please don't tell me it's one of those girly ones." He laughed and shook his head. "It's already bad enough mine got fucked up and I really hope for Brian's sake he doesn't try anything funny with it like turning it in to a fairy mobile or something, cause I'll most definitely kill him."

Faye laughed as she looked over at him, she didnt really have anything in mind, as long as it got her from A to B it didnt realy bother her what her car looked like, but she was in a house full of car mad freeks, and anything less wouldnt really sit well. She simply shrugged and took a drink of her coke before turning her gaze onto Jack.
"Not really"She stated with a shrug of her shoulders, "But Leon's ment to be taking me, so im sure it will meet your approval"

"Maybe if it's on my day off from work, I'll come with." He half smiled, half frowned. That actually sounded kinda weird coming from his own mouth after being unemployed for so long. He really had to get used to having less 'free' time even if he did spent it doing absolutely nothing important most of the time.
"But yeah, if Leon's taking you I'm sure whatever you'll bring home will be a cool ride. Just as long as you don't smoke me with it, huh?" He shot her a teasing wink before finishing his beer.
