Me: Help I'm Alive is a project I've been working on for a long time. Since it's my first Fax thing, I had to make it perfect.

Max: What's the song? Cause I love it.

Me: Help I'm Alive by Metric.

Max: Don't forget to R&R!

I tremble
They're going to eat me alive
If I stumble
They're going to eat me alive

I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. My best friend, Fang had just kissed me. And I, Maximum Ride, was freaking out. I sped down the pier and towards the shed.

"Max?" Fang called after me. I heard him get up and run after me. I didn't turn back. I just kept on running.

Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer...
Beating like a hammer...

I ran into the shed and shut the door but Fang grabbed the edge before it could shut properly.

"Max, listen to me." Fang said, walking in and shutting the door behind him.

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.

"No." I managed to say.

"Why not? I'm here to explain." He countered.

"I don't wanna hear."

Beating like a hammer...

"Max," Fang murmured, taking my hands in his. He let go one hand to stroke my cheek. I stood still. "I love you, OK? I've loved you since we were like 12. You're my best friend, the only one I trust. You make an awesome leader and I know that you'll make a better girlfriend." Fang said. I tried to wriggle out of his grasp, but failed.

Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender.

Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Then, he pressed his lips against mine for the second time that day. His hands slid down to my waist and pushed me closer to him.

"MAX! What are you doing? You and Fang are only friends!" I shouted in my mind.

"Tsk, tsk, Max. You wouldn't know your perfect half even if he was right IN FRONT OF YOU." The Voice popped in.

If you're still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn't I do?
I get wherever I'm going
I get whatever I need
While my blood's still flowing
And my heart still beats . . .
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Suddenly, images of two people lying on the grass, hand in hand, popped into my head. The boy had shaggy black hair and the girl had blonde hair with brown streaks in her hair. The picture zoomed in on the girl's hand. There was a ring on her 4th finger. I immediately recognized the two people. It was Fang and me, lying hand in hand in the grass.

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender

Then, something clicked in me and I pulled away. I looked up at Fang, pushed him away and dashed away. I was halfway into the woods when I heard someone behind me.

"Hey."

I turned around to see Fang. "What do you want?" I ground out.

As I stared into his dark eyes, something clicked in me. I walked slowly up to him and leaned in.

When we kissed, every problem around me just melted away. Like my problems was the disease and Fang's kiss was the antidote.

Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train

Fang pulled away, wrapped his arms around my waist and said, "So did you change your mind now?"

"Yes, I did." I replied. Then I pulled him in for kiss number 4.

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer

Thank you very much! Now I need R&R people!
