A/N: Hi peoples! Sorry I haven't updated in forever. I probably won't be able to update soon. Sorry! School started, and I'm really busy. Anyway, here's the next chapter!
I didn't get up for breakfast that morning. I was still sad that Fang had left us. How could he do that? How could he do that to us? We needed him. I needed him. Ugh. I was crying now. I felt a strong pair of arms wrap around me. I looked up, hoping to see Fang, but it was Iggy.
"We all miss him, Max." I looked at Iggy solemnly. His best friend had just left him, and he was comforting me. I'm the leader. I should be comforting him.
"Yeah," I said, finally getting up. I looked around, seeing what everyone was doing. Angel was whispering quietly to Celeste, the Gasman was tightly hugging a pillow, Dr. Martinez and Ella were washing dishes, but where was Nudge?
I walked down the hallway, looking for her. I heard a small whimper come from inside Ella's room. I opened the door to find Nudge on the floor, curled up into a ball, crying softly.
"Nudge?" I barely whispered. She looked so, so not Nudge. She looked up ate me with a tear streaked face. Her eyes were dark, almost black. Nudge always looked happy, cheerful. Now Nudge looked...depressed.
"Nudge?" I said again, crouching down to her level. "It's ok." I stroked her hair.
"NO IT"S NOT OK!" She suddenly screamed at me. I looked at her in shock; she had never yelled at me.
"Nudge, calm down."
"Fang left, Max! We have no idea where he is, or where he's going!" Nudge was sobbing heavily, her tears soaking my shirt. Iggy appeared in the doorway.
"Nudge," Iggy said soothingly. "Fang left because he had to. They were his family."
"Yeah, but h-he still left us." I knew how Nudge felt. I was sad too. I couldn't believe that he did that. But they were his family.
"Maybe later we can look for him, you know, just to talk and stuff." Iggy and Nudge looked at me.
"Yeah?" Iggy asked softly.
"Yeah." I replied, a smile coming over my face.
"Oh, thank you Max!" Nudge practically jumped on me. "Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" Nudge was overwhelmed with joy. She really loved Fang. I almost cried. I hadn't seen her this happy in what, years?
"Ok," I said after Nudge had gotten off of me. "Let's go get some lunch."
A/N: Ok, I know it's short, but I have discovered that I cant write long chapters. I'm trying, I really am. Sorry this hasn't been updated in a while! Please review! Please? I love reviews.
