When Fang and I got to Mr. Bernstein's room Ari was already there along with Nudge. She was talking to some dude in the back of the room. I went over to Ari who was writing something.
"Hey, Big Guy. Are you doing your math homework again?" I asked him when I saw what he was doing.
He looked up at me and nodded. "Yeah, I did all of the homework that I was supposed to, but math." He replied. Then looked over my shoulder and asked. "Who's that?" pointing his pen at Fang.
I glanced over my shoulder at him. I completely forgot about him. He is as quite as a ghost. "Oh, Ari this is the new kid Fang, Fang this is my brother Ari." I said introducing them they exchanged greetings. "Hey, Ari who is Nudge talking to?" I asked him
"I have no idea." He said putting his hands up in the universal gesture for "don't ask me, I'm too busy to pay attention." Then he went back to his homework.
"Oh, that's Iggy." Fang said pointing to the dude. Iggy had strawberry- blonde hair big blue eyes and was about 6' foot 5". "He's my friend/bodyguard. He may not look like much but he can take down the navy's martial arts instructor." Fang told me.
"Cool." I said then looked at the clock 9:28 exactly. I sat down next to Ari and Fang sat on the other side of me. And Mr. Bernstein came in.
"Good morning class." He said is a sing-song voice. Everyone took a seat
"Today I am assigning a new project. For one month you will work on creating a new and original song .I will assign the partners." We all groaned
"Alright." He said consulting his notes. He said like the first five pairs the said my name.
"Maximum ride, you will be paired with Fang Johnson." I nodded and looked at fang
"Ari Ride, you will be paired with J.J." Ari nodded
"Nudge Parker, you will be paired with Iggy Griffiths." She and Iggy nodded
"Alright everyone, you have the rest of the period. Good luck." Mr. Bernstein told us and we went with our partners.
"OK." I said facing Fang. "You got anything?"
"Nope" he said crossing his arm over his chest. "You?" he asked.
"I might have something." I said glancing at my notebook. I sighed and opened it. "OK, I've been working on one song."
"What is it?" he asked siting up a bit."
"I have sailed the many oceans
I have sored the endless sky
I've tried with all I have
But nothing
Nothing will set me free."
I looked up at him and he was listening to me and smiling as I sang the song.
"All I need is you right here beside me
All I need is to see your smiling face
Oh, whoa, yeaha
Waves thrashed around
Thunder rolled in
Only in your arms I am safe."
I stopped and looked at him he was smiling.
"That was amazing." He said. I felt my face flush
"Thanks. You can wright your part if you want and I can help." I told him
"sure." He said
"But I'm not writing it by myself. You will sing it and I will edit. Deal?" I asked. Then held out my hand.
"Deal." He said shaking my hand. "OK, what about something like, I never wanted to leave I never wanted to hurt you." He sang and held out the hurt. His voice sounded much better without the voice editing
"Good, good what else?" I encouraged.
"Um, for me it was love at first site, I could never let you go." He sang
"Perfect, now let's do the chorus." I said. "How about, you are the one I need, my only love, the only one who can save me. Andwe both sing that I go high you go low." I suggested he nodded
"Sure let's try." He said
"You are the one I need, my only love, the only one who can save me." we sang together. then the bell rang.
skip to lunch time
L.A, Social Studies went by fast. Fang was in all the classes, so we talked about the song. we came up with nothing. we put away our books but i kept my notebook and pencil.
"OK, how about, I've searched for you everywhere on land and in my heart,but I can't seem to find you anywhere." He suggested.
"hm, OK that's good." I said when we sat down at my usual table with Ari, Nudge, Iggy, Angel who is in seventh grade so about thirteen blonde hair and big blue eyes, and Ella who looks a lot like Ari and I same hair eyes but shorter and fourteen. anyway I wrote down what Fang just said the closed my notebook. Fang of course sitting next to me
"Okay, what do we feel like playing today?" I asked everyone.
"Wait, what are you talking about." Fang asked
"everyday we play two or three songs as entertainment during lunch." explained Angel in her sweet voice. "aren't you that famous rock star, Fang that Max likes?" she asked Fang.
i blushed "Ange, this is the one the only Fang Johnson that you also truly adore." I told her. "And that." i said pointing my pencil at Iggy who was next to Nudge. "Is Iggy Fang's one and only friend." I told her. "Who Fang said can take down the navy's martial arts instructor." I said chuckling a little.
Some how Iggy heard me, through all his non-stop chatter and told me. "that is 100% true,Fang saw me do it."
" did you know Ari weighs over 190 pound and most of it's muscle?" Angle said knowingly. we all looked at Ari.
"I promise you all it's true." he said
"But Max can still take him down. Make him fall flat on his back." Angle said.
"I've seen it so many times." Ella said. "Live with them and some times they get at each others throats. but somehow it's always in the basement where we have a state-of-the-art karate work out place type area." she added.
"Okay, let's just figure out what we're going to play." I said trying to get back to business..
"OK, how about Jar of Hearts." Nudge suggested. "OMG, I love that song." the she went on talking about how much she loved the song and how much she wants to and why she wanted to play it.
"IF." I said loud enough for her to hear. "If we play the song, will you stop talking?" I asked.
"Yes." she said with a big smile.
"then let's do it." I said. then we all got up, except for Fang and Iggy, and went to the stage. Ari grabbed his drumsticks and went to the drum kit. Nudge got her bass. Angle went to the grand piano at the corner of the stage. Ella grabbed her guitar. I'm lead singer so I grabbed a mic and went on stage.
"Hey, guys." said into the mic everyone cheered. "So upon Nudge's request." I said gesturing to her. She waved. "We are going to play Jar of are singing this to keep her quite so you're welcome to the people who have Nudge in any of your next classes." they all chuckled and a few said thank you with big dramatic voices,more chuckling. when everything quieted down i nodded to Angel and she started playing at the right que i started singing.
"I can't take one more step towards you
'Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most
I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time
[Chorus:]
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms
And I've learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?
And It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back
here Ella and Nudge joined me singing at different ocvtives
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at allx2
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are"
I finished and cheers erupted in the cafeteria
