Fang P.O.V

I was going to my first class, when I heard Lissa screeching about something. I started to walk faster to get away and I saw who she was yelling at. It was a new girl and it didn't look like she cared what anybody thought about her, she just kept being herself. She walked away flipping the slut the bird.

I smirked and told her, "hey, sorry 'bout her. I'm Fang."

She got a white board out and wrote It's fine. It'll just make the fights funner. I'm Max.

"You're mute?" I asked. She nodded, waved and started to walk away. I yelled, "wait, what is your first class? I can show you it."

She showed me her schedule and we had most of the classes together except I was in Latin when she had Spanish. We walked together in a comfortable silence until we got there. Sitting beside Iggy and Nudge, I raised an eyebrow as I heard something about a pink unicorn and peanut butter.

"Hey Fang! Who is that girl you were with. Is she new, what she like? I wonder why she is wearing that, it isn't cold out yet. Well I guess it isn't my business why she would. Anyway what is her name. Is she nice." Iggy finally cut Nudge off her rant with his hand. While I shrugged at her questions.

Iggy shook his head at her and questioned, "Who is she?"

"Don't know. Name's Max"

went to the front of the room and explained, "Class this is Maximum Ride, she is new and I expect all of you to welcome. You can go sit behind Nudge and beside Fang,okay Max."


Max P.O.V

I sat beside Fang and a chocolate colored girl while the teacher said something about politics. Zoning out, I looked around the class and saw mostly sluts and cocky looking jocks. Annoyed I took out the song I was working on out and started thinking about lyrics, chords and other music appliances. So far I like but I can't think of anything else to write, singing in my head I started to write.

Uh, uh, some deep shit, uh, uh

Momma please stop cryin, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you
said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you'll see
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

I thought a little bit and came up with the rest of the song.

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can't stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says
its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love
you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have
no choice, no way
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I've seen
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, let's act like it comes
naturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays
I don't want two addresses
I don't want a step-brother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her
last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do
anything)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
Let's play pretend act and like it comes so
naturally
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave)

Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my
shining star?
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Don't leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
I'll be so much better, I'll tell my brother
Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner
I'll be so much better, I'll do everything right
I'll be your little girl forever
I'll go to sleep at night (Family Portrait by Pink)

When I finished writing, we only had two minutes left of class. I put my book away and stood when the bell rang. Fang said he would show me all my classes and his friend Ella would take me to Spanish. I went and waited for him at the door. He introduced me to his friends then we continued walking.


I'll try updating more. I'm just in summer school and have band along with other stuff.
