*Within a few seconds, the door opens. Max stands in the doorway, his hair disheveled, dressed in a wifebeater and pajama pants. He smiles.* Hey.

:::smiling back, and quickly drawing her attention to the floor:::
Hey...uhm...
:::But she forced herself to look back up at him:::
I should be leaving by tomorrow, :::recalling how Luke explained it to Aimee::: Early in the morning so we can get through security.

*Max understands Cora's reason for knocking and he gives her a big hug.* We'll miss you around here.

:::She stays there, resting her head on his chest:::
Not as much as I'll miss all of you...
:::Suddenly she felt like crying and smiling at the same time, which hardly made sense in her head, but her body seemed to think it was a perfectly reasonable reaction. She resisted though:::

*Max let go of the hug and smiled at her a little.* Well, you'll just have to come here more often. ******** those Canadians. America's better in every way.

:::She giggles:::
I can try... :::back to why she was really there though...:::
I wanted to thank you... I had a lot of fun last night and tonight especially. I really- ... I really enjoyed being with you.
:::..and the blushing begins. Why she thought she could just march right up to him and say something like that... it had to be the left over effects of all that drinking, she thought...:::

*Max stares down at her.* Yeah, I had a good time, too. *For a moment, they look at each other and all is quiet in the apartment. Then they hear the toilet flush in the bathroom. Max scratches his head and clears his throat.*

:::Cora noticed him shift, knowing that Luke would be looking for her in just a moment. She seized the moment, with a little more confidence this time. She puts a hand on his arm and plants a kiss on his cheek:::

*Max jumps a little, surprised at the ambush kiss. And ... He gives Cora a happy smile.* Snuck one in there, huh?
*Max would have said and done plenty more, if Luke hadn't come around the corner.*
*Luke looks to Cora then to Max.* Hey.

:::smiling back:::
Couldn't resist-
:::But then she turns when she hears Luke approach:::
I... should say goodbye to Chuck too...
:::Looking back at Max, smiling mischieviously:::
Do you still have that marker?

*A wide, equally mischievious grin spreads across Max's face.*
*The three of them go back into Chuck's room, only this time Cora has the marker.*
*When they're finished, they say their goodnights. Max goes into his room and shuts the door, while Luke and Cora go back to Luke's room. Luke's thought about offering to take the couch or sleep on the floor, but ... there's really not much point to it at this stage. Cora sleeps best in bed with him, and to be honest, Luke doesn't mind it himself.*
*He throws back the covers and dusts off the sheets a little.*

:::Thankfully, Cora has too much on her mind and a little too much Fosters left in her system to remember all the disgustingly muddy equipment that was on that bed about 20 hours prior:::
:::She was about to realize how tired she was too... when she crawled in and huddled up to the wall, a wave of exhaustion came over her and she yawned despite herself:::

*Luke climbs into bed with her. When she yawns, he smirks a little. This whole weekend tuckered the girl out. Well, good. That means they had a good time, which is what it's all about.*
*Luke ruffles her hair a little, once he's in bed.*

:::She groans a little as she feels her hair tugged in all sorts of directions, and she instinctively threads her arms under his, right under the shoulder so he could only move his arms from the elbows up. For someone as tired as Cora though, you can bet she was still as strong as three Luke's:::
Heeeey... quit it.

*Luke wrestles a little. Even though Cora's got him pinned down, he's not worried.* Yeah, right. Make me.
