Touching Wings

By Lina

Characters belong not to me! :0)

We sat along the beach. I looked at the kids all splashing and having fun. Their wings were beating to throw water at each other. It was an ultimate water fight, nothing like the ones you petty humans have! I counted the flying figures as I lay in the sand, sifting it through my toes. Uno.. .dos… tres… cuatro…cuatro. I only saw four bird kids out there. Who was missing? I looked at all the figures. Iggy? Check. Angel? Check. Nudge? Check. Fang? Yep. So that leaves… Gazzy.

"Max? Do girls really have cooties?" I heard a little voice ask from beside me.

"Hmmm… let me think…" Giving him a sinister side look, paired with evil smirk, I got on all fours and growled, as best I could, "Yessss so you better RUN!"

Knowing that I was joking, he smiled, but still took off screaming and laughing towards the water. I lauched myself forward from my crouch and kept low as I sped after him, wings spread, like a bullet throwing sand all around me. Right at the edge of the water, I caught up with him. I scooped him into my arms and shot straight up into the air as I let out a fierce battle cry and kept spinning. I didn't flap my wings, so when I stalled in the air, I quickly flipped in the air and shot down into the water with Gazzy still in my arms. Like a dolphin, I made us dip in and out of the water towards the flock. We reached them, and I dropped Gazzy as I flew back to my post on the beach. I laid back and put on my mirror sunglasses the size of my face. I only got them to check out cute guys without them knowing. But please don't tell! My rep would be destroyed.

I looked up as I heard feet walking towards me. I saw Fang, and because I had on my "guy checking" sunglasses, I let my eyes go ahead and assess him. Because you are a simple reader and do not deserve the satisfaction of a full body description, I'll go ahead and tell you that he had a perfectly sculpted, muscular body but just enough of, I suppose, fat to not look like one of those freaky high school boys aimed at looking buff. He had that sexy side swept emo boy bangs look. Yes, that is what I call it, and I myself now have some drool coming out of my mouth.

"Hey Max." He said, smirking at me as he sat to my left.

"Holla! Whatcha doin' over here?" I laid back with my uber hott sunglasses still on my face.

"Just came to keep you company." He replied, lying down in the sand next to me.

"I'm just fine over here. You can go and play with them," I rolled over and stretched. I extended my wings bending them as far backwards as I could to feel that wonderful stretch. "Mmmmm… that feels goooood," I groaned. I snuck a glance at Fang, and I saw he had a look of lust in his eyes. I got an idea in my head, and taking in my wings while flipping onto my back and sitting up, I motioned for him to do the same. He sat up, and looked at me with a single eyebrow up.

"Extend your wings." I smiled as he spread his beautiful, midnight black wings. They were so deep and dark that at times they appeared to be purple. My breath caught in my throat as I slowly began stretching my hand forward. We'd never really touched each other's wings before; it was much like an unspoken agreement not to. I looked to Fang for permission, and saw he had a look of anticipation on his face. My fingers made contact with his left wing and I slowly ran my hand down his wing, reveling in the feel of each feather. It was magnificent. I heard a funny sound coming from Fang, and I saw that he had his head thrown back with his hands covering his eyes.

I stood and ran towards the rockface to our right. It was secluded and I had a feeling that this experience may be more intense than I originally believed it to be. And you pervs with your heads in the gutters, no I do NOT mean that far. Plus, I would like to support my belief that Fang and I just have a Brother and SISTER relationship! I crooked my finger at Fang so that he would follow me as I went and sat in this patch of grass. I sat there and felt the wind in my face. I took a deep breath and sighed. It was clear, refreshing air. I opened my eyes and nearly had a heart attack when I saw Fang laying on his side in front of me.

I tentatively unfurled one wing out towards Fang, knowing that if Fang had been overcome by ecstasy from the feeling of me touching his feathers, then I was going to be even worse.

He looked at me steadily as he reached out his hand and ran it down my wing. I bit my lip to keep in a moan and shook my head as if to rid myself of the intensity. My wing shook and I felt as if I was high on drugs. I looked at Fang and saw him leaning towards me. Instinctively, I mirrored his actions and just as we were about to touch lips, I jumped on top of him instead and ran my hands along his wings in opposite directions. Now, so you readers understand the intensity of Fang showing immense emotion, I once kicked him between the legs, and he didn't flinch. I heard from Iggy that later, Fang was rolling on the floor in his bedroom, moaning in pain, but he had been so set upon not showing that I had affected him, he had kept in that immense pain. So, you can now understand why I flew back in shock at what he did next.

Sitting on top of Fang (PERVERTS BE GONE!), I realized how intense touching one another's wings could be. Fang let out a low growl mixed with a moan as his entire body shook. He was breathing heavily when I flew backwards and into a tree. I looked over the trees blocking us from the kids, and saw them still playing. Good.

I looked down at Fang and saw him half sitting up looking at me. I still had my sunglasses on so he could not read my eyes, but I clearly read his as I saw that he was surprised. I smirked. Seems like I have a weapon to use against Fang. I saw him smirk back at me.

"I'm pretty sure you're thinking about using this as a weapon against me. But may I remind you that you cannot hold in your feelings at all, or at least barely, and so I'm very curious at what will happen when I do the same thing to you." I saw a mischievous look in his eye, and that very second I realized that I was utterly doomed. He was going to use this against me forever. I then remembered how we almost kissed, and I thought of the relationship between us. I then decided to let go of the "brother sister" relationship because then this could be a form of incest. One word: icky. So, I decided to try my hand at being, what do you call it? Oh yea, sexy. Maximum Ride being sexy. Lets see how well this goes…

"Well, Fang, you'll just have to catch me first now won't you," I purred as I nuzzled my face into his neck and kissed his shoulder. I had jumped down from the tree, obviously, and he groaned because I had found his weak spot. I quickly sat back on my feet and launched into the air.

"UGH!" I heard Fang yell as he realized I had totally had him fooled. I smiled. Boys are so much fun.

Touching wings, who woulda thought?
