Chapter 1:

Broken Heart

Make That My Broken Heart

Hey, my name's Max but you might already know that. Well, remember my flock; Fang, he's 18 he's also my best friend, my right wing man, my soul mate but recently he also became my heart breaking ex-boyfriend (long story I will explain later). Iggy, he is also 18 like Fang and I. He's also the Gasman's best friend. He is wickedly good at make things explode! Oh I almost forgot he's blind. Nudge, my sister, well not really but sometimes it feels like it! She's a fashion freak and a big mouth 15 year old who thinks she likes Gazzy. Speaking of Gazzy, he's 13 he can also make a bomb out of anything, and I mean it anything! He secretly loves Nudge too but won't admit to it. Lastly Angel, my baby. She's 10 now and she's super powerful. I know what you're thinking; she's only 10! But I am serious; she is freakishly powerful and scary. And I know what you're saying; how can a 10 year old be powerful, scary and strong, but she's not the only one who's strong and powerful. We all are and that's because we have wings.

We all also have special powers like Angel. She can read and control minds, Iggy can hear really well, Gazzy can make anything into a bomb, Nudge can tell stuff by touch, Fang can blend into anything and can breathe under water and me, oh well I can fly at super speed, I can breathe under water. Oh, and we're all really strong.

Anyways back to life. So it's someday in mid-August, 2013. It's night time so the flock's down. If you haven't read all my other books, you must not know that Fang left us about 3 years ago, so now it's just me, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel. At least it was until one night.

"Max," Someone said quietly into my ear, making chills run down my spine. I knew that voice it had to be-

"Fang!" I said and hugged him tightly. At first he was stiff but then fixed his shape making it easier to hug him. After a while I let go and suddenly I remembered I was mad at him for leaving me back at Total's wedding, but seeing him here in front of me, all I wanted to do was hug him, but suddenly blurted out with anger.

"How could you leave me at Total's wedding?"

"Max, I had to." Fang said, looking apologetic.

There was something he wasn't telling me. I looked into his eyes for the answer, but like always I see nothing. His eyes as dark and the moon lit night.

"So what made you come back?" I asked.

"I figured it out!" Fang said with great excitement.

"What are you talking about?" I said, confused.

"Being alone let me think. I want to be with you. I love you." Fang said with a rush of emotions.

"So you think you can just come back and I will forgive you? If you do you're wrong!" What kind of person does he take me for? A girly girl? One who waits and waits for her Prince Charming to come? The kind that kisses every person they see?

"Max, I just told you I love you and you're mad at me. God you're just a stubborn as I remember you!" He said, and right then he gave me one of his very rare smiles. The kind that use to light up my day when everything had gone bad. Back when the flock was still together. God I have missed him.

"So what now?" I asked, not meaning to say it out loud, but to myself.

"We run away! We go live together! I want to marry you! We can be together forever! No more running away! No more anything! Just you and me!" He said his heart full of love.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It was perfect... wait a minute. Nothing is perfect in my world. Nothing came that easy. Something was wrong. Everything was too perfect, this had to be a dream! I pinched myself.

"What are you doing?" Fang asked, confused with my actions.

"This is all a dream! I am trying to wake up." I say truthfully.

"Max, this is real!" He said. Just when I was going to argue with him, he leant in and kissed me so carefully. His tongue begged to come inside and of course I let him in! Just at that moment I didn't care if it was a dream, it was the best dream I had ever had. The last thing I remember was Fang lying next to me in my bed hugging me. Suddenly I woke up. It was 8 am, and my alarm went off. I look around and Fang was nowhere to be found.

"I knew it was too good to be true." I mumbled to myself when suddenly I heard a voice.

"Good morning sleeping beauty."

OMG! It was true! He did sneak into Ella's house! He came back! But more importantly, he came back for me! Just then, Angel came into my room and sat on my lap.

*Max, Fang's back! Now you don't have to be sad! You can be with him and you don't have to worry about taking care of flock now that everyone's gone!* She said into my head.

Without thinking I replied in my head. *But how do you know he wants to be with me?*

She sent me a mental message back. *Sometimes a girl just knows...and you know, sometimes being able to read minds helps.* We both laughed and Fangs stared at us, wondering what we were saying, and then without warning, I smiled at Fang, and something in his eyes just showed me that he loves me.
