Chapter one

Disclaimer: erm…well this is a one shot but if I get enough reviews I will turn it into an actual whatever you call them. Yeah so erm…I don't own the maximum ride series but for now I shall own them…muhehehe…anyway ENJOY!

"MAX…Max, Gazzy and Iggy stole my barbies" Angels shrill voice rang out from the upstairs bedroom. We had moved in to this new –abandoned-home a few months ago and now everyone was bored, and so it was getting as low as Barbie hostages, though were she got the barbies from I have yet to know. There was a thunder of footsteps as Gazzy and Iggy threw themselves down the stairs and out then a crack as the door was wrenched open. I placed the last plate away that I was left to dry up and made my way outside looking around in the small garden I saw them hovering over what looked like a round clump of…something. With what looked strangely like my hairbrush connected to fangs, laces then it was just a mess of metal and lights.

"Come on guys give Angel back her dolls" I folded my arms and twisted my hips out as most women do. There was only a turn of a head, and then they were racing back towards me.

"OH no you aren't doing another bomb…what have I told you, do you want the authorities to come" the neighbours from the across the fields must think were trying for the great escape but my thoughts were clouded over as Gazzy ran past with Iggy in toe who grabbed my hand and we were running towards a nearby oak tree, I counted three seconds in my head before a massive explosion threw me in the air, I gasped slightly as something stuck me in the back but the world was going around in circles so I closed my eyes and waited for the distant roar in my ears to evaporate.

"Can I poke her?"

"no…at least not yet, I think shes ok…well I hope so cos fang will kill us if we hurt his precious angel" I opened my eye then blinked and looked down at a grinning Iggy and Gazzy. Two pairs of excited eyes stared back, although one of them was slightly dull the thrill could be felt from a mile away.

"Erm Max are you gunna get of us any time soon cos Fang won't agree with this, or are you quite comfortable" As my clog of a brain slowly began to realise that we were actually laying in an awkward huddle of limbs and clothes. Slowly I smiled and stared at Iggy.

"No I think I'm quite liable to just lay hear and crush both of you, after all, you just sent Barbie to oblivion" and just as those words left my mouth Barbies-correction-Barbies limbs came falling from the sky, her legs fell down onto the tree an arm thumped into Iggy face while a burned face fell beside Gazzy squashed one, an insistent wriggling could be felt and I laughed as Gazzy tried to look away from Barbies charred smiling face.

"AHH get it away from me, get it away" Gazzy pushed Iggy away and scrabbled for the door to the kitchen, throwing himself against the door, just as Angel and nudge appeared with Total, followed by a sleepy Fang.

"Well I found your Barbie, now barbies im afraid, but you managed to freak Gazzy out" I smiled and kicked Iggys side gently so he would stand up before Nudge lunged and took revenge. Iggy smiled cheekily and started for the door, but when he walked past. Fang stuck out his foot and Iggy rebounded of the door with a silent smack, Fang smirked and ducked as Iggy tried to punch him back but soon gave up and went in search of Gazzy. Nudge and Angel thanked me then ran back in after the two trouble makers, leaving me, Fang and Total. Silence ran between us besides the odd shout from inside, or Totals scratching. We looked at Total enquiringly; Total looked back with confusion, then understood and turned to the door once again with his tail high in the air.

"I know when I'm not wanted" he said huffily pawing the earth then entering the house in search of his girlfriend.

"Shame you dont just disappear then" Fang muttered looking at the ground; Total turned and gave a piercing stare then trotted back in.

"Hell bite you one of these days you know, and he knows what to aim for"



"Oh great and the worse thing I can expect is rabies, oh know I guess I only have a few seconds to live…quick kiss me now" Fang smirked while wrapping his arms around my waist and leaning his head against mine. Ever since that fateful night that I had kissed him he seemed to think it was great bringing it up and making it a laughing stock, tell you what next time hell just get a foot up the butt for being so cocky.

"Do you want me to kick you right now, or do you not praise your jewels" I smirked and turned my face up towards him, I stared up happily into a pair of dark eyes, the ones I nearly lost so many times. Sometimes I want to just stop time still, fast forward it or just keep re-running a great time like when we use to live at those great flats in America, yep that was until that attack of the Fidos came along and ruined it all. Fang had noticed my frown and was looking at me curiously, I tried to look away but he caught my chin and gently lifted my face back up to his. I bit my bottom lip, wondering what I should say when sudden warmth around my lips made me close my eyes and before I knew it I was wrapped up tight once again, against Fang. As his hands wrapped themselves around mine I slowly lost any awareness of time or place; all I knew was that I was in a garden huddled up close with someone I wanted to be with for the rest of my life. Wow I need to stop watching drama shows; they get into your brain like nothing. I could feel his warm hands rubbing against mine, which were somehow firmly stuck to my stomach and I could feel him beginning to smile.

"Aww guys this is so unfair you know I can't see most things…what are they doing" Moaned a voice.

"SHUT up Iggy" Growled Gazzys voice.

"Ow…ok, what are they doing now" I broke away and opened my eyes, unsure of where to look. Well that was slightly embarrassing, where were the little monsters anyway, it sounded like they were….Oh yes. A small window to the right of the house which occupied Angel and Nudges room they were three little faces pressed up against the window or for Iggy's case hanging out the window.

"Iggy, what were they doing"

"How the hell should I know, Im blind if you don't remember but by the sound of it they were…." Iggy whispered the last bit and both girls sighed happily while Gazzy made a face and jumped down from the window, closely followed by the girls who dragged Iggy after them.

"Ill kill him, seriously" Fang started for the door but I grabbed his hand and turned him towards me, linking my hands in his I looked up into his eyes and asked the question that had been haunting me for a long time.

"Fang…do…do you love me" I whispered into his ear and I heard an intake of breathe, then he hugged me tight to him and whispered back into my ear.

"Always have done, always will do, when didnt I" he laughed on the last bit nudging my hair slightly and breathing into it which tickled.

"You really want me to answer that" I sighed remembering the arguments we had

"Max, I would stand with you no matter what, I would help you even if it killed me. Because you all I have Max and although the kids make me happy, they will never make me as happy as Mrs. clumsy can…I…If anything happened to you Max, im not sure I could live anymore" I couldnt believe what I had just heard, I laughed gently but a warm feeling was circling around my heart and my stomach was doing flips. Yet I knew with slight dread that it was true.

"What, that had come out from the depth of my heart and what do I get for it, a laugh"

"Oh the muscle man has a heart; I thought it was an ice block"

"Yes, well it was melted by a hot tempered girl" I stared up at him with a raised eyebrow but before we got any further there was a shout from inside the house. We both turned out heads towards the house, for now the conversation was over, perhaps later but for now some little monsters were in trouble and it was time for dinner anyway. Holding my hand carefully in his hand fang led me to the door, then gently let go and started for the stairs.
