I know this story was supposed to be a one-shot, but I decided to make them a bunch of Niggy one-shots.
"So you know that's flour?" A voice said drifting from the kitchen table.
The girl occupying the seat was staring at Iggy's back like it would suddenly grow a face and confess its love for her.
'Yeah, because the color." He kept on working with the ingrediants in front of him. Ignoring Ella. He wanted to finish before Fang and Nudge came back.
"It's so sweet of you to throw a surprise party for Nudge." Was she trying to flirt with him? Iggy gagged. This motion went completly unseen by the girl.
Iggy didn't even think Ella liked Nudge. From what Gaz told Iggy she was practically giving death glares to Nudge all the time. Except her glares couldn't kill a fly.
Iggy suddenly felt even more uncomfortable. Ella was jealous of Nudge?
"So when will they be home?" The we, was Fang and Nudge. Fang had been the one to volunteer to take Nudge out while they set up. Angel told them she became suspicious immediatly when Fang came up and told her she could do anything she wanted for the day. Max had cracked a joke saying Fang would rather have swollen ears then help.
Iggy heard a chair scrape against tile floor. Followed by the pounding footsteps of Ella coming towards him. Iggy quickly grabbed the pan walked over to the oven to put it in. He was thank full when Ella's footsteps ceased, but then forced a groan when they made their way over to him. What the hell did she need?!
"Ella..." Iggy started, but he was taken off guard.
She had fastened his hands to stay wrapped around the oven handlebar.
The burning hot handle bar.
His back was forced up against it too. He was about to question her and her need for him to have blisters when her mouth cut him off. Iggy, who couldn't much act with pain in his hands and back, made a pained noise in his throat. Ella who had forced her tongue into his mouth in a plain nasty way took it as a moan.
Iggy quit acting and froze still as a statue. He was in so much pain. He couldn't concentrate on anything else.
Thats why he didn't hear Nudge land outside.
Thats why he didn't hear Fang's protest of "Don't go in there!"
But he did hear Nudge's gasp. Ella had heard it too. He felt sick to his stomach. Of all people to walk in...
...it had to be Nudge. Not anyone else. Ella was in for some anger from him. Didn't everyone, but Nudge, know Iggy had a little crush on Nudge? Because certainly he didn't listen to her talk for hours for nothing.
"Oh, I'm sorry was I interupting something?" It was short and sad. Ella was the only one who could see the tears welling up in Nudge's eye. For Ella had made a contest (that Nudge didn't really know about) to see who could win Iggy first. She'd been planning a moment like this for weeks ever since Nudge had a girl-to-girl chat about her massive crush on Iggy. Which Ella also had. He was one hot bird-boy.
But Ella was angry. She saw how Iggy acted around Nudge. She was mad that since they'd known each longer that Nudge would get to date him.
Ella put a humurous smirk on and pushed the urge to laugh at the tears that went spilling out of her eyes. She was about to answer when Fang rushed into the house.
"I'm sorry she got curious!" He then took the scene in. Ella smirking and looking at Nudge with laughter. Nudge who was silently crying. To Iggy whose face was filled with pain, "looking" down at his hands. "I guess I'll just go find Max and tell her." He ran from the room.
Ella then grinned. "Yes you were." Iggy finally looked up and scrunched his eyebrows together. He heard a sniff from the entrance of the kitchen. Nudge was crying.
"Oh," Nudge said. She looked at Ella one last time and ran upstairs. Before Iggy could correct the situation. Man, girls always leave before guys can explain. (AN/ No we don't, but this is Iggy were talking about) Iggy felt anger bubble into his stomach. Nudge barely cried, but when she did...
Ella turned and looked at Iggy. Gasping, when she saw his eyes. Filled with anger. He was mad at her.
"Why'd you do that?!" But Ella didn't answer just back out of the room. Only to be stopped by Max. Who also had anger in her eyes...directed at Iggy.
"What did you do?" She hissed. Ella stumbled to take a seat at the table. Who was joined by the rest of the Flock. All glaring at Iggy.
"Do?" Iggy asked. He didn't do anything.
"Nudge came running upstairs crying her eyes out saying something about you!" Max yelled. She hated seeing anyone in the Flock sad.
"I know what happened," Ella said raising her hand, awkwardly.
"Darn right you do!" Iggy yelled in the direction she thought she was in. Dead wrong though. But Gazzy didn't see the need to correct it. Just pretended he was actually Ella.
"Well you see...Iggy was cooking and I got up to help him, and then he kissed me and...well, Nudge just can't seem to control her feelings." Iggy went slack-jaw. He kissed her?
"Excuse me?! Look at my hands! You kissed me! I'm gonna have blisters!" Ella put on a pity look when she saw her work. She didn't want to lie, but it just came out that way. Iggy was supposed to be hers. Angel let out a gasp. Oops.
"You knew Nudge liked Iggy! He isn't property Ella." Angel said. Max balled up her fists. Fang noticed them and sent to work to unglue them. All seething at Ella.
Except Iggy.
Nudge liked him
Liked
Oh sparkly peanuts!
Iggy dashed out of the room and up to Nudge's room. Not caring if Ella was eaten by the Flock. He pulled the door open and ran in. Slamming it shut behind him.
"Nudge it was a complete misunderstanding. She kissed me! I wouldn't kiss her because I like you! So wouldn't I want to kiss you?" Nudge stared wide-eyed at Iggy. Completly forgetting she should be angry and crying.
"You like me? Not Ella. Not anyone else? Because well you looked like you were the one kissing her. --Oh man your hands Ig. The oven must've been hot..mpffm"
Iggy stopped the short kiss and grinned.
"I like you." He said simply.
Nudge grinned and pulled on a british accent. "Oh the joys of being thirteen!"
