Endless Fighting

Chapter 24: Stone Fox Is An Exception*

"Ace told me that your uncle owns Flex Fitness Gyms?" Mom asked and she nodded.

"Yeah," she said.

"So what do you like to do for fun?" Mom asked, "I know that Martin and Ace like to ride motorcycles and spend their whole entire day enhancing them."

"Yeah, I do like cars a lot too. Well I really like to stay active so I will usually take a walk around the park for fun or take rides on my motorcycle," she said.

"That's cool. I love to take walks around the parks too. It's a nice way to relax," Mom said and Max nodded.

"The thing about my family is that we are really split up about sports," Mom said and I knew that my mom was going to ask this question.

"Really?" Max asked and Mom nodded.

"Jayden and I like soccer, while Martin and Ace like football," Mom said, "Which one do you and Macy prefer?"

"I like soccer!" Macy said, "Jayden and I play soccer during recess."

"I actually like all sports, but if I had to pick it will be probably soccer," Max said and Martin groaned.

"Seriously Max? We were counting on you," Martin said and I laughed.

"Sorry boys, I do like football, but I like soccer better," Max said.

"Can you play football?" I asked.

"A little," she said.

"Well we need to take her to the field one day," Martin said.

"If you want to," I added.

"Sure," she said.

"Okay Max, this is what has been on my mind," Mom said and held up the magazine with Max on the cover. I think I actually saw her blush.

"Yeah, how did you get on the cover?" Martin asked.

"Well I just ran into the owner of Fitness Daily and he asked me to model for the magazine," Max said.

"Well you look pretty Max, no matter you have so many guys staring at you," Mom said, "A few are at this table."

"Wow so subtle Mom," I said and Mom laughed.

"She's right. You look hot," Martin said, "Whose the guy next to you?"

"Mason Donovan. He's a model," Max said and I felt a stab of jealousy.

"So you guys are friends now?" Martin asked and Max nodded.

"I guess," she said, "We haven't talked since the photo shoot. I have his number though."

"Well who wouldn't want to be your friend," Mom said. We finished eating with small talk, but I guess I didn't really talk that much. I was thinking about the photos with Max and Mason. The one that stuck out to me was the one with Mason holding Max around her waist. Mom then got out the dessert.

"Wow, this is delicious," Max said after taking a bite of the chocolate cake.

"I love this!" Macy said.

"Me too Mom," Jayden said.

"So what are you planning as a career choice?" Mom asked Max.

"Well I am thinking of taking over my uncle's gym when he retires, so business," she said.

"Well Ace wants to be a mechanic, but he hasn't started working," Mom said and Martin snickered.

"Neither have you," Jayden said and Max smiled.
