Chapter 2: Love Triangle
Iggy's POV
"I just don't know," I said, "I'm not sure what I'm feeling.
"Of course you do! It's so obvious you're in love with Max," Gazzy said.
"Shhh! Don't say that so loud! And I am not in love with Max!" At least I don't think I am...
"Whatever man." And with that, Gazzy left the room.
Maybe Gazzy is right, maybe I do love Max. I don't know, she's so beautiful and strong and confident; but being in love with Max just doesn't sound right. Anyway, she and Fang are, like, made for each other. Everyone can tell that they like each other, it's no secret. Why would Max love me back if I did love her anyway? She's too focused on Fang; she would never care about the blind guy...
Fang's POV
Just looking at her makes me draw in a breath. I know it sounds stupid and un-Fang-like, but it's true. All I can think about is the short moment I was able to kiss her before she flew away. Max is such a great leader and she is so beautiful even though she doesn't know it. But why does she keep pulling away?
Max's POV
Okay, I have to break it to Fang. This is going to be so hard, but I need to tell him how I'm feeling.
"Fang!" I called.
"Right here," said a calm voice from behind me.
I swiveled around to see Fang leaning against my bedroom wall in the corner.
"How many times have I told you not to do that!" I said, filled with outrage that he can' t respect my personal space. Note to self: start off talks about feelings without yelling at Fang first.
He put his hands in the air as he walked towards me, "Whatever you say."
I took in a deep breath. I hate talking about feelings. It's harder than fighting off Erasers or having broken ribs. I hate feelings. Why can't we just go through life emotionless and not have to deal with any of this stuff? But I guess going through life without emotion would make me like the evil scientists at the school.
But I needed to talk to Fang, to explain to him that we can only be friends. Well here goes nothing.
"Fang, I need to talk to you."
"Go ahead."
"I-I-," drawing in a big breath, "I think we can't go on with this." Fang looked at me questioningly, but I could tell he knew what I was talking about, but didn't want to hear it. "It's the best thing for the flock. Us being together will only make it harder to focus on saving the world."
"Why do you only think about saving the world!" Fang's voice was beginning to get louder, "There are more important things. We don't have to save the world; we can leave it all behind and go live on an island or something!"
"Fang, you know we can't do that; as much as I want to. Right now, are main priority should be taking care of the flock and saving the world.
"Whatever." Fang said, with a sharpness in his, voice as he left the room.
Once he was gone, I fell on my bed and cried. I just cried my heart out. I know what your thinking: I'm Max, the strong one who never cries when she's hurt or after a battle. But physical pain is nothing compared to a break of the heart.
