It's been almost a year since fang left me. I can't explain to you how mad I feel, how many times I've cried myself to sleep. Sometimes I take the ring he gave me for my 15th birthday and whip it across the room. How could he? I loved him, he loved me. I saved his life. And days later, he just thinks it's okay to leave? For my safety? Oh, please. I can protect myself. I have the flock by my side. And the day he left, I wasn't the only one with a broken heart. He left the whole flock in pain. Most nights we all sleep together in my bed; 5 kids with wings squished together like sardines, crying themselves to sleep. We just want him back.
Every night I dream about him. Some nights I have romantic dreams, where he comes back because he missed me; he missed us so much, and he couldn't live without us. Other nights, I have nightmares where he comes back to kill the flock, and I'm screaming at him, telling him not to. I'm the last to die. I watch Iggy go first, shot in the heart, then nudge, followed by Gazzy, Angel, Total, and Akila. I wake up sobbing and screaming.
Dylan and Jeb just tell us "it's going to be fine, we're going to get through this."
Is it? Are we? Of course not, 'cause this is Maximum Ride and her happy band of mutants.
