Prologue
Have you ever experienced the feeling that no matter what choice you make someone is unhappy? That there is no way you can make everyone happy. The choice is usually either your happiness or your siblings or friends. I made a choice and no one supported it. I kept on telling my-self that it was the right choice, the others will get over it, but I had them constantly tell me that my decision was wrong. Things happened and I could not stay. I had to get out of it all, away from everyone and everything. Away from family, away from home, and defiantly away from Fang.
Birthday
"Happy Birthday, Max"
"Max, I heard it's your birthday"
"Do you what to have your first drink with me?"
I'm 18 now. I can drink…..legally. Sweet.
"MAX" A guy with dark hair and a slight build yelled.
"Evan" I yelled back. He jogged up to me. He grabbed me in his arms and gave me a short kiss on the lips.
"Happy Birthday, baby" Evan was so sweet sometimes " I got you something, close your eyes"
"You know how much I hate surprises," I said with my eyes closed. I felt his lips gently touch the skin at my throat, his fingers trailing lightly behind pushing my chestnut hair behind my ear sending goose bumps all over.
"Evan…giggle…Evan, do you want to get us in trouble?" he then poked me in the side.
"Evan," I smiled, spinning around into his arms. Evan was holding up a simple silver heart with diamonds on a silver chain" Evan it's so beautiful. Thank you!"
"A small gift"
"I love it!"
"I thought that you could use a new necklace"
I touched the frozen black feather around my neck. He didn't have to say it, but I knew that he thought that the necklace was from a lover. He was right; it was.
I gave him a large hug, over his shoulder. I could see Fang looking over at us. His dark silent and perfect figure almost knocked my breath away. I was about to say hi, but he got up and left. He had been acting weird since me and Evan started to go out. When he found out that I was going on a date with him, Fang and I had a large fight before I had left to go with Emma.
"How about we go to the park? I'm sure Fang and Iggy can watch the kids "I knew Fang was not going home any time soon, he was upset; I could tell. It was not like Fang to see me and not say hi. I don't know where he went, and I did not want to go somewhere and not come back until midnight. That's what he was going to do today. Iggy could take care of the kids for awhile, but I still needed to get home before the kids go rowdy from the sweets the sweets that they would steal when Iggy was out of the kitchen, which was seldom.
"Okay Sounds good" Evan and I held hands as we made or way to the park.
