Love Birds In Denial

We were flying somewhere over Arizona. We had just left my moms house after staying there for two weeks. Itex was destroyed as far as we knew but we still like to keep moving around just in case.

"Max?" I turned around and saw Angel, my baby, looking at me.

"Yes, sweetie?"

"Can we stay at a hotel or something please?"

"Yeah! Could we please stay at a hotel for a couple of days?" Nudge had flown up next to Angel and they were both looking at me with Bambi eyes and I just couldn't say no.

"Sure! It won't hurt if we take a little vacation."

I heard shouts of joy from Gazzy and Iggy behind me. I looked around and my heart skipped a beat when I met eyes with the guy I've had a huge crush on since we were at the School. Fang. I quickly turned away and blushed. I really hope he didn't see me I mean he doesn't know I like him and I want it to stay that way. I would be completely embarrassed if he ever found out!

"Don't worry Max, he feels the same way." Angel had said in my mind.

"Angel, what did I say about reading other peoples minds?"

"I'm sorry Max but I hate seeing you two like this!"

"Angel just get out of my mind please and see if you can find a hotel."

"Okay Max."

After flying for another ten minutes we came across a hotel near a small town. We landed in the nearby woods and walked over to the hotel and when we got to the check in desk there was a young man at the door who was staring at me as soon as I got in.

"Hey there, what can I do for you?" He said with a huge smile on his face. The smile decreased when Fang came up behind me and glared at him. I wonder what that was all about?

"Three rooms please." I said while handing him the never ending Maximum Ride credit card.

He quickly typed something in on the computer and handed me the three card keys.

"I want to be with Iggy!"

"Me and Nudge want to be in the same room too"

I gave Iggy the key to one room and Nudge the key to the other. That left me and Fang in the other. Wait, did they plan this? At that comment I heard Angel giggle in my mind. I sighed and Fang looked over me and I just shrugged. We walked toward our room and I was silently praying that there would be two beds but when I opened the door my worst nightmare had come true. There was one queen sized bed in the middle of the room.

"Uhh I'll just grab a pillow and blanket from the closet and sleep on the floor. You can have the bed." Fang said suddenly.

"No Fang, I'll sleep on the floor. You deserve a good nights rest and we'll probably be staying here for a couple of days to take a break."

Fang looked at me quickly and said "No Max, you do way too much for flock and you need a good nights rest."

We argued for about fifteen minutes until I was getting tired of it. "Look Fang we're being stupid, lets just both sleep on the bed, ok?"

Fang gave me a weird look and just gave me a small shrug while whispering a small whatever. As soon was we got into the room a ran into the bathroom to get a shower. I turned on the water and let it run until and got hot before I took my clothes off and stepped in. I don't know how long I was in there but it felt so good until I heard Fang hitting the door.

"Max are you almost done?"

"Yeah Fang, I'll be out in a sec."

I turned off the water and stepped out. I quickly realized that I was stupid enough not to bring in an extra change of clothes with me. There was no point in putting my other clothes on since they were covered in mud so I just wrapped a towel around me and hoped Fang wouldn't see me. I quietly opened the door and noticed he was facing the other way, typing on his laptop. I silently made my way over to my bag and started to pull out some of my clothes when Fang turned around and scared me. I jumped and my towel slipped down, exposing me slightly. Fang's face turned bright red and he quickly grabbed his clothes and ran into the bathroom. After I was dressed I heard the shower start. I jumped onto the bed and started watching TV, trying to get my mind off of what just happened. A little while later I heard Fang walk out of the bathroom.

He was shirtless and water droplets still clung to his skin. He looked so hot like that! What am I thinking? Fang is my best friend. He's like my brother and even though I like him he will never feel the same way back.

"What are you staring at?"

Oh shit! I was still staring at him deep in thought. I quickly turned around and slightly blushed. Fang walked over and sat next to me. Oh no, is he going to bother me about what happened earlier?

"Max I need to tell you something."

"Uhm sure, whats up?"

"I've been wanting to tell you something ever since we met at the School." Wait was Fang acting nervous? Fang is never nervous, this must be something serious.

So what do you think? Should I continue? Comments and criticism is welcomed. Just review and thanks for reading.
