Music In Her Life Chapter 1, a maximum ride fanfic

Hey guys! This is going to be a songfic because I love them. Review at the bottom please! Be nice, this is my first fanfic. R&R? (By the way, Fang is a little OOC in this story. He talks more than he should, but too bad, it's my story.)

Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own Maximum Ride or the plot or characters. As much as I would love for Fang to be mine, JP owns, not me. I also do not own Impossible. That is all the amazing work of Shontelle. *sad face* :'(

Chapter 1

Max POV

"MMMMMAAAAXXXX! MAXMAXMAXMAXMAX! Get up! Angel found this really cool karaoke bar, and there's gonna be lots of people there, and you should sing cuz I heard you in the shower and you are soooooo amazing! Oooh, I should probably shower in case there are any cute guys there, I mean other than Iggy cuz he's just sooo hot, but-mfkdhatek!" Iggy put a hand over Nudge's mouth before I snapped, because that is NOT how I want to be woken up. I looked around and saw that all of my "siblings" were in my room, even Fang, who has been avoiding me for weeks. They were all adopted by my mom. She loves kids.

"What is everyone staring at? And who let you all in my room? I made sure it was locked before I went…to…" I trailed off as I saw Gazzy's smug little smile. Then I remembered that Fang had gotten him a lock-picking thing for his ninth birthday. I glared at Gazzy. "If you ever pick this lock again without my permission, I swear you will live to regret it." And when Maximum Ride says that, she means it! Gasser had a scared expression on his little face. Good. "Now everyone, please leave so I can get dressed and go check out this karaoke bar." Nudge and Angel squealed.

"Hey Max, I'm not going," Fang mumbled. "I've got a date with Lissa and she's bringing her cousin." He had a smug look on his face because he got to go on a date with TWO red-headed bimbos. (A/N: I have nothing against red-heads, but Max does!) Great. Not! Yeah, Fang is dating Lissa. And yeah, I'm not that happy about it. I'm actually kind of jealous. Why does he like her, he's known me our whole lives!

As I got ready for my shower, one of my favorite songs came on the radio. I knew that Nudge would make me sing, and I just found the perfect song. Maybe I could have Angel do me a little favor to get Fang to that karaoke bar after all…

-HEY, I'M A LINE! I LOVE YOU!-

As we walked into the bar, called The Cave,I saw a teenage girl singing. She was really good! Apparently this is an all kids karaoke bar, and parents just drop their kids off with cell phones and money. Great parenting people! Anyway, Nudge dragged me up to the DJ and made me look at the song selections. Thank goodness that the song I wanted to sing was there. I looked at Angel. "Are they coming?"

"Yup!" she chirped. "When she and her cousin came over, I told her to bring him here. Look, there they are!" She looked at Fang and his dates in the back, and waved. He looked really confused, then really, really mad.

"Ok guys, that was Emily singing Tik Tok by Ke$ha! Let's give her a hand!" The crowd clapped wildly for the girl, Emily. "Ok, up next we have Max, singing Impossible by Shontelle." Well, here I go!

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did, I did
And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did
And now when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead tell them

Mom told me to be careful because there is pain other that the physical kind. He left so easily, and then he came back and expected me to just forgive him. How stupid can he get?!

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof top
Write it on the sky love
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible

Falling out of love is hard
Falling for betrayal is worst
Broken trust and broken hearts
I know, I know
Thinking all you need is there
Building faith on love is worst
Empty promises will wear
I know (I know)
And know when all is gone
There is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead tell them

He betrayed me when he started dating Lissa. He knows that I hate her, and now he has hurt me so much. Tears started running down my face as I locked eyes with him, letting him see the pain that he has caused me. He just had his mouth open like the idiot he is.

Ooh impossible (yeah yeah)

What I feel for him is impossible. I closed my eyes and let the tears flow freely instead of holding them back. I hope he can see them and understand.

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did

When I finished, I heard cheering and saw that everyone in the place was on their feet, except for Fang. He just sat there with a sad look on his face, as if he was feeling pain. Or maybe Lissa just dumped him. I didn't see her or her cousin, so I guess they're in the bathroom fixing their hair or something. I ran off the stage crying, and I broke down in Nudge's arms.

"Max, are you ok, you sounded amazing, I didn't know you could sing that great! I mean, I heard you in the shower and I knew you were good, but not that amazing! People were crying cuz it was so beautiful, but that stupid Lissa chick went and ruined it, saying that you were just faking it until Fang told her to shut up and take her fake self somewhere else cuz he was done with her!" Nudge kept rambling, but I was thinking, So that's what Fang is so sad about. He dumped Lissa. I guess he's just regretting it and is gonna call her later and say sorry…

"You're wrong Max," piped up Angel. "Fang got rid of Lissa because he loves YOU! He knew that you sang that song for him, and he was so sad when he saw you crying on stage. Only me and him noticed, everyone else was just thinking about how the song fit their own lives. Nudge, I have to go to the bathroom. Will you take me?" she suddenly asked. The girls left, leaving me to process what they had said. When I remembered that Angel said that Fang left Lissa for me, I started to cry again. I couldn't let myself fall, because it was weak and I needed to stay strong for my family. That's when I felt strong arms go around me, and I smelled Fang's cologne. He just held me while I cried, letting everything out. Neither of us spoke until…

"Max, I am so sorry. I never meant to hurt you. Please forgive me," he whispered into my hair. That brought me back to earth.

"You're sorry Fang? You're sorry? Do you honestly think that an apology will make this right? You left me! Then, after three months of struggling to live on your own, you crawl your sorry butt back to us. Then you date LISSA, of all people, LISSA, when you said you loved me. You have avoided me for WEEKS and now you say SORRY?! Are you SERIOUS?! Because it's gonna take a lot more that a sorry to make this right. You broke my heart and then you ignored me. I LOVED you, and you dated that idiot. She made fun of Iggy, pushed Nudge, and made Angel and Gazzy cry. She took my place. I've cried myself to sleep ever since I saw you two together after your first date, kissing on the porch." (A.N. I know that it was Max who kissed Sam on the porch after their date, but he doesn't exist in this story, mainly because I hate him, along with Dylan. So Sam isn't in this story, but Dylan might show up later…) I got up and ran out, leaving him sitting there alone. I didn't stop running.

That's the end of this chapter. Please review. I won't update until I have at least 5 reviews.

Fang: It's true, she won't.

Me: Listen to Fang. He's smart, and a sexy bird-kid. :D

Dylan: What about me?

Me: Get out of here Dylan! Before Fang punches you!

Dylan: *oof!*

Fang: Too late, I just did.

Me: *sigh* Boys…anyway, please click on that cute little button down there!

Fang: Please do, it's lonely.

8-D

Just to clear some things up, this is all human. Angel just convinced Lissa by using the infamous Bambi eyes.
