Max POV

When I heard Kayti's shrill, "MAX!" I knew something was up. "MAX!" I shot up from the bed and ran down the stairs—right into the rest of the Flock. "Outside! Under The Gasman's window!" Iggy cried.

Forget the front door! We all leapt out of Gazzy's window and circled around Kayti and The Gasman. Kayti was staring at Gazzy, her eyes wider than the moon itself and her mouth agape.

"What happened?" I asked. Kayti didn't move. Neither did The Gasman. They just stared incredulously at each other. I grabbed Kayti's shoulder, making her turn to face me. "What. Happened." I grit out.

Kayti shook her head, blinking as if she had just woken up from a dream or something. "He… and I… It's back… I didn't…"

"What are you talking about?" I cried in confusion.

"Fayte's back," Gazzy breathed.

Oh. Oh joy. Oh goody.

Another anniversary surprise.

Fang POV

After we got everybody to calm down Max went upstairs to take a nap. She said she had a huge, freaking, unbearably, painful headache coming. Last time she'd said that she nearly killed herself.

So, naturally, I went upstairs to check on her.

Max was sprawled out on our bed; one hand tucked under her neck the other clenching blankets. One leg was curled up and the other was barely bent. Her hair was spread around her head like a halo. Well… maybe not exactly a halo… they're not that dark… She was breathing softly and her face was relaxed. Not crushed under pressure like it had been…

(Fang's flashback)

"I'm HUNGRY!" Nudge whined.

"I've got a really bad stomach ache Max," Gazzy complained. He was flying slowly, one hand clutching his stomach. He was green, as though he were about to hurl. I told him to take deep breaths and swallow repeatedly. Honestly, if he did throw up—I would have hated to be anybody underneath us.

"I think there's a storm coming," Iggy warned darkly. Oh. Another something to add to our bundle of fun!

"I wanna hold Total!' Angel snapped.

Max turned to face all of us. I was the only one who hadn't said anything. All of a sudden they were speaking at once. "I wanna go back to that toy store—Max can we get matches—Celeste needs a bath—and we could have hot dogs, and ice cream, and candy and—Iggy! I might throw up on you—and chocolate… oh chocolate… MAX!"

Max whirled and stopped flying. "I swear to God If you guys don't shut up…" she left the threat unfinished. Everyone stopped talking and flying at once.

Later on that same night, everyone was asleep but Max… and me. Duh.

I came up to her and silently put my arms around her. She leaned into them and put her face into my chest.

"Can I do anything right Fang?" she whispered.

"Yes," I replied. "You stayed. That was right. You saved Angel, all of us… me" Whoa. Too much! Too much! But all Max did was snuggled closer. Snuggle? I felt her breathing on my slow and her chest rise and fall steadily under mine… she was asleep.

(End of Fang's flashback)

That was how Max was now. Calm and relaxed. Not thinking of Fayte. Not thinking of how the younger kids in our Flock have a lover, or how…

I shook my head and blinked a few times. But when my eyes shut… another flashback came?

But it wasn't a flash…

A boy and a girl, the boy maybe two years older than the girl were playing together. They looked around eleven or twelve. They were playing in a field, similar to the one in our backyard. They each had a ball and were throwing them both back and forth.

And then another child came running. She looked around nine or ten and tripped plenty of times before finally reaching the other two children.

"C-can I play?" she stammered.

"Essie…" the boy sighed. The little girl stuck out her lower lip.

"C'mon J! Just let Esperanza play! It couldn't hurt!" The girl shrugged.

J, apparently, sighed and then nodded. "Be a good little sister Essie." She nodded ecstatically and then ran about ten feet away from the other kids.

The older girl sent J a smile and he just rolled his eyes…

I snapped myself out of… what just happened? I looked around. I was back in me and Max's room. And by saying back, I'm saying that… that thing made me feel like I was actually there.

Who was J?

Who was the other older girl?

Who was Esperanza?

What the hell just happened to me?

I didn't want to know.

Max POV

Max. Wake up.

Jeb… I've got a headache. I've just realized that the thing that killed Kayti is back. My daughter can throw ice and it's my anniversary day. Let me sleep… please?

No! Oh—happy anniversary.

Oh thanks. And YOU'RE the one who walked me down the isle. Love you too.

I'm so sorry Max, but that isn't important. Fang found his power!

Yeah right. We're twenty-five. It's probably just some stupid wedding trick you're playing me.

Ouch. I'm not lying! Go ask him what just happened!

I sighed before opening my eyes to a very confused looking Fang. He was staring into space, his brow furrowed and his mouth hanging open in confusion. "Fang?" I asked gently. His head snapped over to me. "Are you okay?" I muttered.

He shook his head a few times and rapidly blinked. "Y-yeah."

"No you're not, silly. The... Jeb told me that you just found your power. What is it?"

Fang tilted his head, showing more emotion than I thought capable for him. "I did?" he blinked. "Oh… that's… what was it?" he was thinking. "Can I see the future?"

Precisely.

Oh my God. Fang can see the future. "You can…" I breathed. I shot up and threw my arms around him in an unbreakable hug. If he were any normal human I would've snapped his neck right in two with my loving hug… but he wasn't. So I didn't.

Fang hugged me right back. "That was so… weird though." He murmured to himself.

"What was?"

He then proceeded to tell me his 'vision'. "What did the kids look like?" I asked afterwards.

"The… J? He had silver blonde-ish hair that came up to his ears. Essie? She had the same colored hair, just little streaks of sort of regular—like Iggy's hair color. And… The other girl her hair was a darkish color. She was really tall, as were all of them. Her hair was sort of wavy." Fang explained.

Think about it Max. Silver blonde… Iggy's… sort of wavy…

And then it all clicked. "Oh…oh!"

"What?" Fang was oblivious to what the voice had just explained to me.

"You just saw our kids grown up," I replied, as though I had just told him to go with a six- year old Angel to pick strawberries. His eyes nearly fell out.

"What?"

I rolled my eyes. "My God. Is Fang getting old and we're only twenty- five…" I teased him. He smirked at me.

Oh no.

I'd seen this look one too many times.

Fang leapt and pinned me to the bed.

"Fang…" I warned, but of course I didn't mean it.

"You know you love me."

Iggy POV

I was just about to knock on their door. Fang had told me that he wanted to make sure Max was still in one piece. I raised my fist, heard, thought twice and spun on my heel, walking back to the Flock.

"Max is fine," I said stiffly. Everyone stared at me with a peculiar look.

"Ew!" Angel finally shrieked. I wonder whose mind she'd peaked into. Mine, Fan's or Max's. Hard to tell, but whosever it was really grossed her out. She buried her face into Bones' shoulder, giggling. "Ew!!! Make it stop!" she paused for a second before calling upstairs, "Max! Fang! You two are disgusting!"

The entire Flock burst out laughing.

Iggy winced. He sat down next to Kayti and shook his head, sighing. She leaned into his shoulder, laughing hard, like there was no tomorrow. Iggy smiled up at her, confused.

Angel suddenly stopped laughing and turned to glare at The Gasman. She was still laughing some though. "Gazzy!" giggle. "How," giggle. "That's sick!" giggle, giggle, full blown laugh.

The Gasman blushed. "I'm a teenaged boy, slack please!"

Nudge gawked at him. "My God Gazzy! I don't even want to know. I do wonder what it would be like to read minds though. It's gotta be kind of fun, right Angel? Well, not for us, because it's our deepest secrets that you're hearing. But then again, we've lived with each other for so long that we don't have very many secrets. Isn't that strange? How people become so accustomed to each other that anything seems fine to say out loud. Kind of like s—"

"NUDGE!" They all yelled in unison. Nudge immediately shut her mouth, guaranteed to be turning pink underneath the dark skin.

I shook my head, joining into the laughter.

Suddenly Max come flying down the stairs and jumps behind the couch. "Shh!" she hissed to us. We continued laughing as though nothing had happened.

Fang came walking casually down the stairs. "Max!" he called. "Come out, come out, wherever you are… olly- olly-oxen -free?" he tried.

We all burst out laughing twice as hard as before. Fang frowned. "Where is she?" he growled. We all shrugged but the look on his face sent us all into another fit of laughter.

I don't think I remember us laughing this hard ever before. Wait…

There was the once when Fang and I attacked Max with pillows while she was asleep.

But there was another…

It was at me and Kayti's wedding.

"Cut the cake! Cute the cake! Cut the cake!" Multiple people were chanting. So Kayti and I did. We each took a bit before she… snatched the plate away? I was about to protest but icing and sugary cake got in my way.

I wiped it out of my eyes. "You did NOT just cake me?" I breathed.

She twiddled her fingers and took off running. When did she get the chance to take off her heels?

And then cake was flying everywhere. I saw Max dive underneath a table and come out in… a cami top and shorts? What the…?

It was obviously a set up.

I got another cake to the face and turned. You could barely see anybody through flying pieces of cake, brownies and cookies. It was actually kind of funny. I grabbed a handful of cake and dove to the floor, looking for Kayti.

I found her…

She was sitting in a chair, wearing almost the same thing that Max was now, dodging flying food. She was chucking anything that flew past her that she could catch. I came up behind her, put my hand in her face and…

"Iggy!" she shrieked.

I could only laugh.

That had been fun. My wedding. Max's and Fang's were even more hysterical…

Their wedding had been outside. It was a beautiful day and the plan was just irresistible.We had all just started to eat when a water balloon went whizzing through the air and hit Ella in the back. She wheeled around to see Angel, hands behind her back, whistling innocently.

Suddenly, Max dove underneath a table and came out wearing the same thing from my wedding. And… she had a handful of water balloons. She chucked one at me and pelted me in the chest.

And then balloons were everywhere. I was soaked to the bon and realized… nobody had bothered with that cake…

I took a handful of the cake and chucked it, catching the back of Max's head. She whipped around, narrowing her eyes at me.

Suddenly the entire Flock was running towards me. They all pounced on me, causing the table holding the cake to snap and tip backwards. I landed in the cake, as did the Flock. We were all covered in it, laughing, throwing it into each other's faces…

"Earth. To. Iggy. Fly Dog checking in. Earth. To Iggy."

I turned to glare at Total. "What?" I snapped.

He only gave me a wide doggy grin.

I sighed. Good times. Good, sugar filled, soaking wet, weddings…

A/N—Whoop whoop!!! I liked that chapter. Did you guys? I did…. Lmao. The wedding scenes were so much fun to write. (sigh)
