A/N: Fluffy! Very fluffy! Kind of pointless, but come on. It's a one-shot song-fic. It can't have much of a point…:O Anyway, read if you like Fax fluff, if you don't, don't waste your time reading and flaming. :D
Set after Maximum Ride: Saving The Worlds And Other Extreme Sports.
Max POV:
"Okay. Iggy, you're in charge," I instructed. Fang and I were leaving to go buy supplies. Our current location was a cave in the middle of nowhere. And, just because you're wondering, yes. There was a whole dialogue before that okay. I just decided not to bore you.
Fang and I walked out of the cave and jumped off the edge. We flew in silence for a while, scoping out any possible sign of civilization. None, nada, zilch. Not that we would have been able to see much anyway. It was pitch-black, and had surprisingly few stars for a place where cars and human beings had not polluted the skies.
"Its getting dark," Fang said, stating the obvious.
"Mmhmm. And your point is?" I replied.
He shrugged, if its possible to shrug while in mid-air. (Note to self: Find out this valuable piece of information.) Then, he replied, "Its not supposed to be dark. Storms coming."
"Oh," was my oh-so-wonderful comeback. I know, genius. "I guess we better find shelter for a while then…"
We found a deserted-looking cliff and landed there. I started a fire, beginning to feel a sense of De-Ja-Vu. Fang's next action simply added to said De-Ja-Vu. He kissed me, and once again I was faced with the this-feels-amazing-but-do-I-want-this? debate.
Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid you're never satisfied
I kissed him back, surprising even myself. I knew, though, that next time it would just be my same runaway game. We carried on kissing, my brain and emotions having a very intense battle that I knew would torment me all night.
Here we go again
We're sick like animals, we play pretend
You're just a cannibal,
And I'm afraid I won't get out alive
No, I won't sleep tonight…
I began to get more and more into the kiss, deciding that it was actually a possibility I wouldn't run away from now on. A small possibility, but a possibility nonetheless.
Oh-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.
He began to back me against the cave wall, alarming me. I knew he would never hurt me, what with him being Fang, but it stilled worried me as to where this was going.
Here we are again,
I feel the chemicals kickin' inIt's getting heavy, and I wanna run and hide…
I wanna run and hide.
Fang POV:
Just as I began to believe that maybe she wouldn't break this kiss, she did just that. I closed my eyes, unwrapped my arms from around her waist. I didn't hear her jump off the cliff and unfurl her wings, however. So either I was pinning her to this wall, or she wasn't leaving this time.
I blew it every time,
You're killin' me now,
And I won't be denied by you,
The animal inside of you.
Whoa-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.
After what seemed like a world of silence, she broke it by saying, "Fang…I don't know if I want this…"
I sighed inwardly, wishing she would just make up her mind. "Okay," I replied, nearly betraying my vow of one-word or very short multi-word answers.
Hush, hush,
The world is quiet.
Hush, hush,
We both can't fight it.
It's us, that made this mess,
Why can't you understand?
Whoa, I won't sleep tonight.
I won't sleep tonight.
Another world of silence, and her lips were back on mine. And this time, it was her choice.
Here we go again…
Oh-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?Take a bite of my heart tonight.
We kissed for a very long time, as long as our little bird air sacs could handle.
Oh-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting…
(Here we go again)
Oh-oh
(Here we go again)
Oh-oh
(Here we go again)Say goodbye to my heart tonight…
Oh-oh,
I want some more.
Oh-oh,
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Still out of breath, she mumbled, "I'm sure now…I want this…"
Those words began the dawn of the Fax era.
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.
A/N: So…Yeah. Just a quick song-fic, 'cuz I was bored and felt like writing something besides my long fiction. Not my best, not my worst. Review if you like.
