Iggy: :S Read the story!

Max POV

Soaring high in the air, I'd never felt so free. All was peaceful for once. The Flock were happy, I was happy. I had my family; Mom, Ella, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy and Angel. Oh, and Total of course.

I circled once more around the house, then descended for my open window, lading lightly so not to wake anyone.

Ever since we blew up Itex and then, of course, The School, we'd been free. And by free, I mean NO Erasers, NO whitecoats, NO more danger.

I glanced at my clock. The numbers glowed through the semi-darkness of my room.

6:34am

I grabbed a towel and creeped down the hall to the bathroom. Just as I reached for the door handle, the door opened and something, no, someone tall and dark walked straight into me.

Fang instinctively reached out to steady me. "Shiii-sorry Max". He seemed to look slightly worried. I suddenly noticed I was in a low-cut top and shorts, whereas he was in his boxers. My eyes darted back up to his face, and realized that he noticed our clothing at the same moment. He cleared his throat.

"What are you doing up?" I asked.

"Hmmm..... I was gonna ask you the same thing." He flashed me one of his half-smiles. I felt my cheeks start to burn.

"Couldn't sleep," I mumbled. "gonna shower, then get the Flock up for breakfast"

"Don't let me stop you" he said, and with that he turned round and walked down the hall. I stepped into the bathroom and locked the door.

Why couldn't I get the image of him in his BOXERS outa my head?!

Fang POV

I clicked the door shut behind me and let out a breath of relief. Every time I saw her, every time, and it was like nothing else existed.

Get a grip Fang! I thought, lying down on my bed. I glanced at the clock.

6:37am

Why was she up at this time anyway? I got up and put my ear to the door. I could hear the faint sound of running water. It's a good thing Angel wasn't awake to hear my thoughts right now.

Max POV

I stood under the hot shower for a long time, letting the water sooth the muscles in my shoulders and wings. By the time I was out, dried and dressed it was nearing 8am. I left my room and knocked lightly on the door of the room to the left of mine. Creaking it open, I saw no movement. I tiptoed over to the two beds, grabbed a corner form each duvet, and pulled.

Iggy POV

I woke with a cold draft of air passing over me. "Wha...!" I mumbled, realizing someone had pulled my duvet off my bed.

"Max!" Gazzy yelled from beside me.

"Up and At'em boys! Gotta get ready for another day!"

"Urghhh, Max." I sat up.

"Breakfast in ten." she replied.

"I don't wanna get up" i mumbled, reaching out for my duvet.

"Fine!" Max huffed, "I'll make breakfast"

"I'm UP! I'm UP!" I yelled sitting up"

"Thought so." I heard the door click closed behind her.

"Here Ig," Gazzy said, handing me some clothes.

"Cheers"

Max POV

I left the boys room and went to the door on the right of mine, pressing my ear against it instead of knocking. No sound. I opened it a tiny bit and peered in. No Fang. Open window. I sighed, closed his door and crossed the hall to the next. Tapping lightly, i poked my head round.

Angel POV

There was a light tap at our bedroom door and Max's head appeared round it.

"Oh, your up already," she said surprised.

"Do you want me to wake Nudge up?"

"Please. Breakfast in five."

...I wonder if Max is getting everyone up. No sound from her room....

"Oh Max?" I said, as she turned to leave.

"Yes, sweetie?"

"Fang's back"

Max POV

Soon breakfast was well on its way, and around me at the breakfast table were 3 sleepy bird-kids, Iggy busy making eggs and toast, and Fang.

"Max.....?" Nudge yawned.

"Yes sweetie?" Did i want to know?

"Well... Yesterday when we were flying i saw this really neat mall near the park and since we havent been shopping properly for ages and all my clothes are nearly falling apart and..."

i cut her off. "Do you want to go shopping Nudge?"

"PLEASE!!!!!" She looked across the table at me with her big Bambi eyes. What else could i do?

ME: Ok so let me know what you think, if you like it i'll write more

Iggy: if u say something nice i'll bake you all cookies :)
