One night, Max was lying in her bed at Anne's house. Max was thinking about when she was on the beach a while ago. That night, after a battle with Ari, she had kissed Fang. She was shocked that she had, and so was Fang. Ever since then, Max had been debating over who she liked more. Fang or a boy from her class at school, Sam. Suddenly, there was a knock at Max's door.

"It's open!" Max yelled.

"Yeah, I can tell." Fang said, coming in.

"Oh, hey." Max said. "Is everyone asleep?" Max was talking about the rest of her 'family'. Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy and Angel.

"Yeah."

"Ok. Good."

"You seem sidetracked. Is everything alright?"

"I was just thinking."

"About…"

Max didn't want to say. She would feel to embarrassed.

"If you don't want to say, that's fine."

Fang reached over to Max and kissed her.

"Get some sleep. You look beat." Fang said to Max.

"Good night."

Max fell asleep. The next morning, Max came downstairs to find that Fang and the flock had already eaten breakfast and were out flying around in the field. Max went and joined them.

"Morning everyone!" Max said to the flock.

"Morning!" Said the rest.

"Hey Fang. You wanna go to the movies tonight?" Max asked.

"Just you and me?" He asked back.

"Yeah. No distractions. The others will be fine with Annie."

"Sounds good to me." Fang replied.

Later that night, they went to see a movie. They got popcorn and sodas. They found two seats near the front and watched the movie. It was a horror/action/romance film.

"Kinda looks like our life. Doesn't it?" Fang asked.

"Yeah. It does." Max said.

Fang leaned in and kissed Max. Max went with the flow and kissed him back. Just as they were kissing, the two characters on the movie screen were kissing.

Two mutant bird-kids, or Avian American as Max prefers, in a movie theater, kissing. After the movie was over, they went back to Annie's. Iggy was still awake.

"Where were you?" He asked.

"Mapping out the neighborhood." Max lied.

"Ok. Good night." Iggy said, tapping fists with Max. Fang had already gone to his room.

Max went into her room and fell asleep. She was dreaming about what happened in the theater. She was happy for the first time in ages.

THE END
