"Nick-y!" Lissa squealed. She rushed over and hugged me. She attached my lips to hers and my hand to her butt. I wanted to flinch away but last time I did, she bit my lip, splitting it in half. What if Max saw Lissa and me making out and then saw me with a split lip? She'd hate me forever.
Speak of the devil and the devil shall come. Max walked into the room and caught sight of me and Lissa. She heaved her shoulders and then sat down. That kid Billy was flirting with her and it was all I could do to not go over there.
Lissa moaned almost silently as she tried to give me a hickey. (Who wants one? They're so gross.)
"Lissa, stop," I said, pushing her off of me. Just in time too, because a few more seconds and there would be a hickey there and Max would hate me even more.
"But Nick!" she said and I closed my eyes, rubbing my temples. Her voice could give def people headaches.
But I wasn't much concerned with my headache because just then, Max strode over to Sam.
"Hey Sam," she said, smiling one of her almost-genuine-but-not-quite-there smiles. They leaned into each other and I tried to turn away but couldn't. It was like a car crash – you want to, you need to turn away but you can't.
"Ms. Ride! Sam! Please sit. We are about to begin class," Sra. Gomez said, coming in. Lissa moved out of the classroom, trying to grab my 'guy parts' as she passed. As she walked into the hallway, she shot me a trying-too-hard-to-be-sexy look. She looked like a fish with botox.
I drew on my notebook and then, before I knew it, I was thinking about Max.
She was so beautiful and nice, and kind and the perfect girlfriend. Maybe even wife. Mother, too…
Woah Fang! Where are these thoughts coming from? You don't think about bad things like that. Especially when she's your best friend.
But maybe she could be more…
"Nick! Máximo le pregunta cómo you' el re hacer. ¿Qué usted dice?" Sra. Gomez asked me. I snapped to attention. Maximo = Max. What was pregunta?
Pregnant?
Did she just tell me to get Max pregnant?
I couldn't remember how to say that I didn't understand so I had to humiliate myself.
"No habla espanol," I said and Max put her head in her hands. So did Big G.
"¿Cuándo usted escuchará en clase? I' m sure máximo escucha. ¿La derecha, Máxima?" Sra. G said and Max huffed and blew a bit of her still pink-tinged bangs out of her face.
"Sí Senora Gomez," Max said, her calm façade breaking through. She shot me a look and somehow I knew the answer to the question.
"Senora Gomez," I said and she faced me. "Muy bien." Max slumped in her chair and put her head in her hands again. Sra. G tried to stay calm.
"Muy bien, Nick. Ahora satisfaga pagan el attetion en clase," she said, moving on to the next person to torture.
I sighed. It was over. I looked to Max, smiling a bit before I saw that dingy kid Billy, pass her a note.
She opened it and then stopped a laugh with her hand. I stupidly kept staring – not even okay staring. Full out stalker staring. Max almost cringed but instead she wrote on her note and then passed it to me.
I read Billy's message and couldn't keep myself from almost crying (Pathetic, right?). The thing was, tonight I was going to confess my undying love for her.
How hopelessly pointless was I? I smiled, forcedly and then wrote back my little message. I passed it back and she nodded.
Great. I couldn't wait.
So if you have no idea what the Spanish is, just go onto a Spanish-English translator and type it (or copy—paste [where would I be without it?] ) it.
So, go vote on the poll on my profile!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need you to or else I will possibly stop writing them until you do something about it!!!
PS I won't stop writing this cos it's only like four chapters but RotW, MAR:MMC and WDYG will be gone for possibly ever!!!!!
PPS That was evil. I need five reviews on the story (any story. All of them, preferably) and five poll votes and then I'll continue with the winner.
PPPS. I love y'all but ya gotta vote or Maximum Ride will die a gruesome death called 'bad literacy!!!' *Scary music plays* Yes, I will make Max die very unclimaticly!!!!! I have no idea if that's a word but u get my drift!!!
PPPPS. That was very evil also. And you better read this author's note!!!!!!!!!
