These are just going to be little bits and pieces from Angel (mostly) I think that could have been taken into greater detail! Let me know what you think! (:
Declaimer: The amazing James Patterson owns Maximum Ride
I woke up in the middle of the night to feel the warmth of someone next to me. It was nice considering I was lying on the cold hard floor of a cave. Then I realized just who had their arms wrapped around me. Dylan. I tried not to gasp aloud. What the heck was I doing? Here I was cuddling with this guy while Fang was out there somewhere thinking of me for all that I knew. It felt as though a knife was being plunged through my heart as that thought crossed my mind. I try to think of Fang as little as possible because each time it seems to have disastrous side effects.
I tried to catch my breath before I broke down crying. You are Max. I told myself, you don't need a guy, you don't need Fang you can do everything on your own. I felt Dylan stir besides me and I turned to make sure that I hadn't woken him up. In his sleep he's gorgeous. Don't get me wrong he is awake too but something about the way all the lines on his face are gone and he isn't being all smart-alecky seems to make all the difference. His hair was sticking out in multiple directions and it only seemed to add to his hotness.
I find myself smoothing out his hair and my fingers trace down his jaw. He's perfect. I see his eye lids twitch and that's when I realized how stupid I was being. What was he doing to me? One minute I'm upset over Fang and the next I'm all over Dylan. I had officially lost my mind.
I jerked my hand back quickly but Dylan was quicker and caught my hand and brought it to his chest. His eyes bore into mine daring to take my hand back. Strangely enough I didn't try to pull back. His eyes were just so blue that I felt as if I could stare into those eyes forever. We laid there for I don't know how long until he spoke.
"Are you ok?" his eyes showed deep concern for me and more emotion than Fang would ever openly let on. I didn't know how to respond. What would I say? Yes I'm fine I'm here lying with you while I'm worrying about Fang who I still love. Oh but don't get me wrong I like you too and this is great. Also you're kind of gorgeous too.
There was no way in heck that I would ever say any of that. So I just nodded and gently pulled my hand away and turned over so that my back was to him again. He scooted over closer to me and wrapped his arms even tighter around me that before. It was nice though, his arms felt so strong and safe around me. Safe. That's usually not how I would describe myself feeling. I leaned towards him and cuddled into his shoulder figuring as long as I was confused nothing else would hurt. I could feel him smile and then he slowly pressed his lips into my hair before settling back down to sleep. I just lay there stunned. Something so simple but it felt right almost. I wanted to throw myself over a cliff. I was all over the place with my feelings and I sure don't like rollercoasters.
I laid there awake until I slowly felt Dylan's grip loosen as he fell asleep. I wanted to sleep too but my mind wouldn't stop running. I love Fang I knew that much. Even if he did leave me, I mean the flock. Angry tears threatened to spill over as my thoughts continued to rage about how selfish Fang was for leaving. I mean he left a note! Only a freaking note! He could of at least given us a little bit more to hang onto. My thoughts then drifted to Dylan and how unselfish he was and how he seemed to be ready to take a bullet for me without a thought. I knew Fang would do that too but without him here it seemed less and less likely he still had feelings for me with each passing day. In general I was in a pretty screwy condition. But one thing was for sure. I no longer completely hated Dylan. I must be losing my mind.
Please rate! I'm new to Fanfiction so anything is appreciated! (: Also if you have suggestions of other bits I could do from Angel or any of the books let me know! (: Thanks! (:
