Okay so here goes another story! Yay! I hope you all like this, there is two or three extra characters but the flock will appear eventually. Hopefully...figured I'd give this a shot :)
"So how's my little Max-wanna-be?" Will kisses my forehead.
"Oh shut it" I say, punching him in the arm. You obsess over one thing and you get chastised for life!
Oh, I'm Allie by the way. My friends that have read the books say I'm like Max. Mainly the attitude. I have blonde hair, blue/green eyes, about 5'4", and a total smartass. So my personality, and maybe my hair, is what makes me like Max.
My smartass of a boyfriend is Will. He is about 5'8", lean build, and brown shaggy hair down to his eyebrows. To me, he would be Fang if he had black hair. That's what I imagine Fang to look like anyways. That's actually why I started talking to him. I figured "If he is anything like Fang then we are sure to get along.".
Right now we are walking back to his house after having lunch at my house. It looks like it's about to rain, so it's a good thing that we are almost there. We live within walking distance of each other, so it works. I just finished the last Maximum Ride book and cannot believe it ended like that. There are so many unanswered questions and I just cant believe there's no more to it!
"Seriously, you've got to stot obsessing over that...fictional book." he says. I fake gasp.
"This, my poor, naïve boy, is the best book ever! You even read it!" I shout in defense.
"Easy there."
"Don't condescend me!" I snap.
"Aww baby" he coos as he wraps his arms around me "don't be that way!" I try to wiggle out of his arms.
"Don't...touch...me!" I cry between laughs. Of course I'm joking though.
"You're so stubborn, Maxie" he mocks.
"I'm not Max! And if I was I would kill you for calling me Maxie!" This boy drives me nuts.
"You are so feisty and so much like her it scares me".
"You know you love me!" I smile.
"I guess..."
"Now who's the smartass?" I respond. Next thing I know he hugs me from behind and twirls me around. After he finally sets me down, we turn into his driveway and we head into his house as the drops of rain begin to fall.
I'm sitting on his basement couch playing halo while he ran upstairs to get some snacks. The rain is loud so I turned the TV up so I can hear it. Right as I was about to shoot I feel a chill down my spine. I turn around fast.
"Will! Stop doing that!"
"Aww are you scared?" he taunts.
"I would watch it if I were you. Have you texted Jared yet?"
"Nope" he replies, as he starts eating his chips. He places fruit on the table in front of me while he plops down on the couch and grabs the other controller. He brought me peach slices, strawberries, blueberries, grapes, and pineapple. Sweet!
"Of course you didn't" I pull out my phone knowing that he still wouldn't.
Hey are you coming or what?!
Calm yourself, I'm almost there
Don't tell me what to do
Yeah whatever.
Will continues to eat and play with me. The game is pretty even, and I laugh whenever I kill him. All of a sudden, two Chuck-worn feet jump from the stairs onto the floor. "Don't make me get out the make-out cam!" he cries with a hand over his eyes.
"Shut it, and be careful! You're going to spill the Chinese!" I shout back. Will, Jared, and I have a tradition where once a month we get together and eat Chinese food!
"Yeah yeah yeah, now turn on Doctor Who. I'm ready for a marathon!" he replies.
"Actually, you promised Allie that we would go on her book's website." Will speaks up.
"Wait that weird book with the wings? That's so unrealistic and stupid!"
"And robots shouting 'EXTERMINATE' and aliens are?" I strike back.
"Hey! You like Doctor Who too so shut up!"
"OH-KAY. I think we've had enough of this." Will interjects. "We'll watch two episodes and then go on the website. Deal?" Jared and I hesitantly and stubbornly agree.
We sit and watch David Tennant (:3), daleks, cybermen, and oods for two hours. Then, it was my turn! We grab Will's IPad and go on James Patterson's official website and on the Maximum Ride page.
I go to Fang's Blog and look at all the fan's questions.
"So is this Tooth kid emo?" Jared asks.
I sigh. "No he isn't, he is just silent and where's dark clothing" I respond.
"So...emo?" I throw a pillow at him.
"At least Will knows not to test me." I say.
"True dat" Will says giving Jared a look like that 'True Story' meme with the guy from How I Met Your Mother. We continue bickering back and forth while I'm looking through the blog. This thing pops up, like an ad, on the IPad. Usually I exit out of these, but this had to do with Maximum Ride. Even if it seemed too good to be true.
"Hey look at this!" I say getting their attention. I start to read the thing out loud. "Want to be like The Flock? Now you can! Read more here" I click the button. "Place your hand(s) on the device. Close your eyes and count to ten, then saying 'I'm ready for the Maximum Ride of my life'. Guys, we have to do this!"
"You really think that would work? Ha!" Jared starts laughing.
"Hate to rain on your parade, but I agree with Jared. Someone just wants to mess with you" Will says, agreeing with Jared.
"I doubt it would work either but can't we just pretend!" I know this thing is nothing, but it doesn't hurt to try.
"I'm not doing this." Jared says.
"Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!" I'm good at holding out my pleases.
"What could it hurt?" Will says. I smile, clapping as Jared sulks over.
We all placed our hands on the IPad just as a deafening crack of thunder strikes, sending us looking at each other.
"This is so stupid." Jared says bored out of his mind.
"Shut up and close your eyes!" I say and he grudgingly complies.
"1...2...3" I conduct.
"I'm ready for the Maximum Ride of my life" we say in unison. A bolt of lightning strikes down right outside the basement window sending us all jumping. The power goes out and I feel a shock run through my hand making me pull my hand back fast. Apparently so did the others.
"Well this is just great." Jared says. "Ow!"
"Next time it will be harder..." I reply.
"Calm down you two" Will interjects. The power soon came on and following that my mom and Jared's dad picks us up.
I am in sweatpants and a sweatshirt laying down in bed. It's about 11:30 when I get a text from Will.
Hey baby :) I decide that I rather talk to him than sleep.
Hi der
What's up?
Laying in bed and thinking. You?
On the computer. Whatcha thinking about?
Just how cool it would be if we actually did get wings. It would be the coolest thing to happen to any of us. Having wings? That's not something that happens everyday. I know the book is fiction and the flock doesn't exist, but living a life like there's would be so amazing! Despite people trying to kill us and experiment on us...
You don't really think that's going to happen, do you?
A girl can dream lol
Yeah she can, maybe a little too much
Hey, this is a no bubble bursting zone. So stop bursting my bubbles :p
Sorry honey, go and dream I'm going to bed.
yeah yeah yeah goodnight.
