Ok, other than the songfic I wrote, this is one of my first MR fanfiction. Please read and review, and I'll another chapter if I get 3 reviews.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Maximum Ride or any of the other characters(although we all wish we owned Fang).
Claimer: I DO own, the plot and the OC coming.
"Truth or dare?" Angel asked out of nowhere. Oh no, not again. We were in a cave, sitting around a nice little fire, eating some fish that Angel so conveniently convinced to jump out of the water, killing their selves.
"Angel, Hun, we played Truth or Dare a couple of days ago. Let's give it a rest." She looked so sad, that I quickly looked away to look at Iggy, who usually had a blank face.
"Max, please!" Nudge begged. Great, just what I needed. A six year old and 12 year old begging to play a game I was sure me, Fang and Iggy were not interested in. Gazzy smiled at me with a pleading expression. I sighed
"No means no." I said firmly. Angel looked at Fang.
"Fang, can we please play truth or dare?" She dared asked him. She was becoming more stubborn by the minute. Fang shrugged carelessly.
"Max said no, so I guess not." He replied. I knew he really didn't want to play, that he was just trying to act nice. Angel pouted, and I made the terrible mistake of looking at her. I gave in quicker than I normally should have. Was Angel controlling me?
"Fine. But just for a moment. And we are not playing for another week." I compromised. Of course I couldn't resist my baby's sad little face. Fang gave me a I-can't-believe-you-gave-in look, and I stuck my tongue at him. In my head.
Iggy sighed in annoyance, and I knew exactly why. You see, the thing about playing truth or dare with a six year old mind reader and mind controller, is that she can, and most likely will, make you do what she knows you fear most. This is why I was so reluctant to play. But no, I had to be weak and give in to her sad puppy faces.
"I go first, I go first!" Nudge said excitedly. I heard Fang sigh, and Iggy plucked a pebble in annoyance. I was so going to get it later from both of them for making them play.
"Ok, truth or dare…Gazzy?" Nudge said.
"Truth." He said wisely.
"Is it true that you can't control you digestive system?" She asked. Jeez, this was cornier than last week's game.
"Yes." He replied. I started making unrecognizable shapes in the floor of the cave as the others played. Thankfully, no one bothered to pick on me.
"Truth or dare, Max?" Angel finally asked me out of the blue. Crap, I didn't want her to call on me.
"Umm…Truth I guess." I said dully. She gave me an evil expression that I regretted.
"Is it true you think about Fang a lot?" She asked boldly. Everyone, including Fang, turned to look at me. I felt my cheeks heat up, as if I was actually lying down in the fire we were sitting around.
I swallowed, and thought of the perfect way around this. If I lied, she'd snitch, and of course they had to believe her, I mean, she does read minds.
"Yep, along with Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy and you." I covered. She frowned. She couldn't turn that around. I smiled inside at my escape and continued playing in the dirt.
"Max," I heard Fang say suddenly. I had zoned out, in my own little world, playing in the dirt and enjoying myself. I wasn't paying attention to the game.
"Yeah?" I replied, still drawing squiggles in the dirt.
"I love you." He said. I coughed suddenly and snapped my head up.
"Fang, what?" I asked astonished. What the heck was going on? Everyone was sitting around calmly.
"I said I love you." He said. Fang's head was down as he spoke. I cleared my throat. I didn't know what to say.
"ok…" I started. Suddenly Gazzy bursted into a hysterical laugh. I glared at him.
"Gazzy don't do that again, you gave me a heart attack." I scorned.
"Why? Because you thought your life dream was coming true?" He teased.
"Gazzy, shut it." Fang said coolly. Gazzy looked at him sheepishly. I continued to ignore their game and played in the dirt some more. I know what your thinking: I'm acting so childish, but playing in the dirt is much more fun than you'd think.
"Jesus Christ! Iggy, Fang, keep it PG! Oh, I can't believe you were thinking that!" Angel shouted suddenly after about ten minutes of playing. I snapped my head up and saw that Iggy had a shameful look on his face and Fang had an amused expression.
"I told you to stay out of my mind." He said calmly.
"Angel, why are you reading my mind anyway?" Iggy said, his eyebrows coming together.
"I just wanted a good dare to give the two of you!" She defended.
"What's going on?" I asked. Angel stood up in her spot.
"Oh I won't, you can count on that." She said. Me, Nudge and Gazzy looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
"Angel, what happened?" I asked again.
"And you're making it worse!" She exclaimed. I stood up too.
"That's it, I quite." Angel said irritably.
"Angel?" I asked. She ran towards the opening of the cave and flew out.
"I need to clear my mind, I'm scarred. Badly." She explained. She started flying in circles around the cave entrance, where she knew I would see her. I turned on my heel and looked at Iggy and Fang accusingly. Unfortunately, Iggy couldn't see.
"What did she see? What were you two thinking?" I demanded. Fang was still smiling a half smirk, and Iggy's face was red.
"Come on, spit it out." I said.
"None of your business." Fang replied. I was shocked. I walked over to him and picked him up by his shirt.
"You better tell me what you did to scar my baby, or I'll beat it out of you." I threatened. And Fang did something I never knew he could do. Yep, you guessed right. He laughed. Not snicker, or giggle (A/N what if Fang did giggle??) but laughed.
I glared at him.
"What's so funny?" I said.
"Trust me; you don't want to know what I was thinking." He pulled my arm off of his shirt and walked into a corner, still grinning and suppressing a laugh.
"Iggy?" I said, not forgetting about him.
"I was thinking about…burning people." He lied. I knew he was lying, because Angel wouldn't have reacted that way. That's all Iggy ever thought about, or at least, that's what the rest of us thought.
"Fine I'll ask Angel. If I get it from her, you'll pay." I said. I walked to the edge of the cave, but before I could call to Angel, someone had my arm.
"Ok, I'll tell you. But don't laugh, or say it out loud." Iggy gave in, his face redder than a rose. Fang continued to sit in the corner, relaxing like nothing happened. I smiled triumphantly.
"Humor me." I said.
O.o What was Iggy and Fang thinking about that frightened Angel?? Find out in the next chapter…or at least what Iggy was thinking about. Please review and tell me what you think. The OC should come in the next chapter, or chapter three…if there will be a next. Depends on the reviews I get.
