As Long As We Have Each Other

Disclaimer: NO! I don't own Maximum Ride! OK!

Summary: Just a bunch of one-shots involving Max and Fang. Most of these will go along with a song.

Chapter 1: Breakaway Fang stared up at the midnight sky from the cave opening. To anyone observing it would appear Fang was simply admiring the twinkling stars. However that was not so; he was, in fact, watching a lone figure swooping through the sky.

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I just stared out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy

I would pray

Fang believed her to be far more beautiful than any of the stars. It was Max. She dove, flipped, weaved, and circled gracefully all the while laughing in pure happiness. There were so many things for Max to worry about- you know, save the world etc. etc. - that this carefree behavior was rare, actually it was pretty nonexistent.

Trying not to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I pray
I could breakaway

Suddenly her course changed and with a couple of beats of her wings Max was hovering in front of him. Her long, at the moment, brown hair was windblown, her smile infectious, and her eyes shined with delight only a bird-kid could have. Fang, gazing at her, etched this moment- the stars, her hair, face, eyes, wings, smile, and the happiness- forever in his mind. Throughout the years when things seemed especially hopeless- which happened often for them- he recalled the moment and always found peace in it.

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

"Fang, let's breakaway. Just for tonight we can forget it all and fly together. No worries, problems, or issues. Just the two of us flying," Max said confidently.

"Breakaway," Fang mumbled. He bent his knees and shot up into the air alongside Max. She was forgetting it all, with him tonight. One night. It would have to be perfect.

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

"Tag, you're it! No using super powers but tag backs are allowed," Fang yelled as he flew away as fast as he could. Their laughter rang clear in the silent night while Max and Fang swirled around each other.

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Usually looking at Max and Fang a person could easily see that Fang wanted to tell Max just how much he loved her and Max was desperately trying to ignore her ever-growing feelings towards Fang. But tonight it was all gone. Max and Fang were simply best friends breaking away together.

To Anyone Who Cares: So both my older brothers and sisters are dating right now and all their happy fluffy mush is starting to rub off on me. The song is Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson. I'm sorry if Max and Fang are out-of-character. Anyways hope you like it. Please review!
