The feeling of flying, to me that is the most beautiful thing in the world, next to Fang. I know what you're thinking, "Max being mushy! What has this world come to?", I can explain, after almost having everything taken away by a psycho woman claming to be your mother it puts things into perspective. That small amount of time before Fang left was pure bliss. I cannot believe he left me… uh I mean… left us, the flock. He was wrong! He did not have to leave us … leave me. I almost lost him for good, and I am not going to lose him again!
After I found the note, I left the kids with Dylan, leapt out my bedroom window, and soared into the black sky. It felt so good to fly again. The wind dried my tears as I flew towards an unknown destination. After about 5 minutes, I felt a strange sensation like a rope was around my waist pulling me towards something. I willed myself to stop flying. I thought I would start plummeting towards the ground, but I did not I just floated towards my unknown destination. I continued to fly on and let my "sixth sense" guide me.
I do not know how long I had been flying or how far but all of a sudden, the pulling stopped. I looked down and I saw Fang sitting on the edge of a cliff. I could hardly see him he was doing his whole going invisible thing he likes to do. I swooped silently down behind him, and folded my wings in.
"How did you find me?" He said barely audible.
"I was pulled towards you, if that makes any sense at all." I replied. He turned around to look at me. "I felt it too." He said. "It must be some sort of weird new ability we acquired." "Yeah." I said solemnly. "Please come back." He walked towards me, his dark piercing eyes unblinking. Fang grasped my hands in his. "Are you sure this is the right thing to do?" He whispered in my ear. "I know it is," I said praying to god that it was the right answer. "Then let's make official." He said as he got down on one knee, and pulled a diamond ring out of his pocket. The wind blew his perfect jet-black hair into his eyes. My look of confusion converted itself into shock, then a big smile. "Maximum Ride will you fly with me forever," The grin on his face was so big that it dwarfed mine. I had never seen him like that before. "Will you marry me?" He said looking up at me. "Yes!" I said as he slipped the ring on my finger. He stood up and kissed me tenderly, all I can say is it was better then flying!
We reached home around noon. When we told everyone Gazzy and Iggy went into a whole thing about how the world was ending and how we all need to head for the bunker! Nudge and Angel started jumping up and down and telling the boys how they needed fork over the $40 because they won! In addition, Dylan said congratulations. The wedding was 2 weeks later, Mom, Jeb, Total and Akila, Angel, Gasman, Nudge, Iggy, and Dylan showed up. I was the best day of my life! 9 months later, I delivered twins, Misty and Rose. Dylan decided to leave the flock. We all thought it was for the best. We are still living in our layer waiting for the world to start crumbling again. Fang, Misty, Rose, Iggy, Gasman, Nudge, Angel, and I, are waiting.
