MaxPOV
Location: Ella and Iggy's Apartment
Date: June 2; 8ish AM
Fang grabbed two cans of Pepsi and handed my one before opening his and I took a swig. After the second can of Pepsi/Tequila we took out the Tequila part.
Fang looked at the can and slowly brought the can to his perfect lips… The hell did I just say?!
"You kissed a guy?!" I laughed and smirked a little
"Yeah but you kissed a girl." Fang replied with the same smirk I'd been getting all night
"She kissed me! We were drunk!"
"I was dared to kiss Iggy a couple nights ago. Grossest thing ever to kiss your little sisters boyfriend who is also your best friend. Never have I ever, gone to Alabama." We looked at each other neither one of us taking a drink. I took his phone and read the next one.
"Never have I ever smoked pot." Fang took a drink and I stared at him in disbelief.
"At a party when I was 16; hated it and have stayed far away from that group of people ever since." I nodded and Fang started to read off the next one.
"There you guys are," Iggy stood in the doorway to the balcony. "Max, do you think you'll be able to join us for breakfast?" I looked at my phone and shook my head.
"My cousin should be at my apartment soon so I should be going." I stood up and turned my back to the city skyline.
"I thought you were meeting somewhere," Fang said standing
"Well, I still have to shower and change."
"Fine, I guess you can leave for that. But you're missing the best damn breakfast you'll ever taste." Iggy smiled and moved to the side so I could go inside.
Grabbing my things I went to the door and let myself out before entering my apartment.
I locked my front door, threw my things on the chair and went into my room. Closing the bedroom door I pulled my clothes off and walked to the closet in my under garments.
I pulled out some clothes and walked into the bathroom. I put the shower on medium warmth.
After my cold shower I donned a pair of dark blue wash skinny jeans, a deep red tank top, a black lace shirt, and a pair of black flats.
Grabbing my house keys I exited the apartment. I locked it and headed down the stairs walking in the direction of Sally's Diner.
I sat at a table in the diner and pulled out my phone to check the time.
"Max, coming in on her day off?" Amber laughed and handed me a menu. "Cherry Pepsi?"
"Yes and yes." I smiled; Amber nodded and left to get my drink.
The door chimed and a blond walked in, he had Justin Bieber's 'shaggy' haircut. He went to the take out counter and flipped his hair. I watched him as he waited for his take out. When he got it he paid and turned around. I quickly looked back at my menu. I looked up as Bieber sat across from me.
"The names Dylan Gunter-Hagen, but all you need to know is my first name so you can be screaming it tonight." He winked at me and I looked at him in disgust.
The door chimed again and Fang walked in. We made eye contact and he came towards me. Fang slid in the booth next to me and wrapped his arm around me and kissed my cheek.
"Hey Baby, was he bothering you?" Fang said looking me in the eye his eyes saying 'You're welcome.'
"Well he basically told me we were going to be having sex tonight and I'd be screaming his name." I answered Fang, I had always hated it when a guy called me 'baby' but when Fang did it, it sounded a lot less douchey.
"I didn't say that, I was just telling her my name Fang." Dylan's eyes grew as Fang glared at him
"Well, that's impossible for you to be screaming his name when you'll be with me tonight. So Dylan, get your ass away from us." Dylan nodded and he practically ran out of the diner.
Fang's arm left my waist and he moved to were Dylan was sitting across from me; I instantly missed him being next to me with his arm around me. I wish Dylan would come back in and Fang would kiss me again but this time on the lips. I totally did not just think that… I barely know the guy…
"Here ya go Max, do you want a drink?" Amber set my drink down in front of me and looked towards Fang.
"Cherry Pepsi," Fang said looking at Amber
"Bills separate right?" I nodded and Amber left again to get Fang his drink.
"Shouldn't you be having breakfast with your sister, Iggy, and Nudge?" I asked setting my menu aside.
"Told them I got called in to work."
"Ah," I looked at my phone for any messages
"Shouldn't you be meeting your cousin?"
"She cancelled," I sighed and sat back in the booth; Fang mirroring me. "You know, I didn't find out much about you through our game of Never Have I Ever."
"Well, 21 Questions would change that a little."
I nodded, "What's your favorite color? Mine's red."
Fang smirked before answering, "Black," he gestured to his clothes a little and I smirked at him. "How many siblings and what are their names? Three; Zephyr or Gazzy, Gazzy's twin Angel, and Ella."
"Only child, what's your dream job?"
"Hm," Fang thought for a minute, "Probably going into the Air Force or Army. What about you?"
"Probably paramedic, but I doubt I'll be able to." Fang smirked at me
"What? A paramedic?! I thought you'd say you already have it as a diner waitress." Fang cracked a small smile and I think a saw a little teeth in his smile, and for whatever reason my heart skipped a beat.
"I know, waitressing is like the best job ever!" I smiled a little
"Favorite pop? Cherry Pepsi but it has to have Grenadean not the flavoring the Pepsi puts in it."
"Cherry Pepsi in general, but you just got Cherry Pepsi."
"You obviously haven't made a Cherry Pepsi yet have you?"
"Oh yeah, we put Grenadean in it. I'm blond at heart." Fang looked at my hair and smirked
"Max, you are blond."
"Shit, I knew my secret would be exposed!" I laughed and got a little laugh and head shake from Fang
We eventually ordered food and ate while continuing our rounds of 21 Questions.
After we finished eating I knew a lot about Fang and I think he knew a lot about the new me but not the old me that I left in Phoenix. Fang dropped me off at the apartment building and left. I made my way up the stairs and to my apartment feeling exhausted.
Once in my apartment, I pulled the curtains on all the windows closed making it pitch black in the living room. Flopping on the couch I pulled a blanket over top of me.
I closed my eyes and fell asleep instantly.
FangPOV
After Max got out of my truck, she headed to her apartment. I watched Max walk into the apartment before I left.
When I got home I grabbed two of my dad's old army duffle bags. I filled them with clothes, a pillow, bathroom stuff and some food.
I grabbed a bottle of Pepsi and started out of my small house. I threw the bags in the bed of the truck and closed the hard top lid. Pulling out my phone, I called my mom and got in the truck.
"Hi Fang, how are you doing?" I started up my truck as Mom answered.
"I'm fine, how about you?" I pulled out of my driveway and on to the road.
"Just fine,"
"Could I come stay with you for maybe a month?"
"Yeah, are you bringing Ella and Iggy?"
"No, I'm coming alone."
"By the background noise, I'm guessing you're on your way already."
"Yes, I am considering it will take a couple hours to get from Houston to San Antonio and I don't want to get there when it's dark."
"True, call when you get close to home."
"So you know how much time you have to finish dinner before I arrive?"
"No, why would you think that?"
"Because that's what always happens." I smirked as I turned onto the interstate.
"I never do that!" I could tell she's smiling on the other end of the phone "I'll let you go so you can pay attention to the road. Drive safely, love you."
"I will, love you too." I hung up and instantly called Iggy
"Hey man, what's up?" Iggy answered
"Hey, I'm driving to San Antonio for about a month. So could you mow my lawn every other week?"
"Sure, but I'll miss you little vampire. Hey isn't it a little bright for you or are you one of those sparkly vamps?"
"Iggy, you should know the answer to that already!"
"Sorry Edward,"
"Fuck you man, I have my daylight ring and I'm not a sparkly vampire how many times have we been over this?!" I spun my class ring around on my finger.
"Oh right sorry, Fangles must not have gotten has beauty sleep last night… Oh wait!" Iggy laughed, "Alright but I'm just making sure my little vampire is safe!"
"Iggy I'm older than you and I will be safe; now go before I crash and they realize I'm immortal." I smirked again and switched lanes.
"Love you Fangy-Wangy!" I hung up with a sigh and put my phone in the cup holder.
It buzzed and I grabbed it and started to read the message.
I guess my Fangles doesn't love me as much as I love him… and his sister… but I guess that's a vampire for you. Love Iggy.
I shook my head and put my phone back in the cup holder. I plugged my iPod into the tape player cord and started blaring Skillet.
Location: Just Outside San Antonio
Date: June 2, 2013
"Hey Mom, just calling to tell you I'm just outside San Antonio. You don't have to call me back. Bye." I hung up and got off the interstate, turning the radio down.
MaxPOV
Location: Max's Apartment
Date: June 3, 2013
I woke up to loud knocking on my door and someone's frantic voice.
"Max? Max its Sarah and Joey open up!" More knocking came as I opened the door rubbing my eyes. "Thank God!" Mary and Marshall entered my dark apartment.
"Sorry, my air conditioner was broke so I didn't sleep at all, and now that it was working I fell asleep on the couch." I said opening my blinds to see it was dark and storming outside.
Marshall turned the light on as I yawned and stretched looking at the clock on the oven for the time. I grabbed my phone and found 5 missed calls.
"We got a call from Sally that you hadn't come in yet. I told her you were sick." Mary said as I rubbed my forehead.
"I'm sorry Mary. I didn't get any sleep last night. Like I said my air conditioner broke so it was about 90 degrees in here."
"It's fine; Sally told me someone tripped you yesterday. Are you alright?" I nodded and went into the kitchen and pulled out a bottle of water and some Mio flavoring.
"Do you guys want some water?" I asked shaking my bottle of water mixing the water with the flavoring.
Mary's phone rang and she answered it. She pulled Marshall towards to door still on the phone and waved a small goodbye before she and Marshall left.
I looked through my missed calls; 3 from Mary, 1 from Sally and 1 from Ella. Ella had left a message so I listened to it.
"Hey Max, its Ella. I was wondering if you wanted to have coffee with me. If you would call or text me your answer that would be great. Thanks, bye." I erased the message and dialed her number.
FangPOV
Location: Martinez Household, San Antonio
Earlier That Day
I stumbled down the stairs rubbing my eyes.
"Fang!" Angel, my 16 year old sister, ran over to me and hugged me.
"Hey Ang, aren't you supposed to be in school?" I looked at my mom and held Angel's shoulders as I walked us back over to the table where Angel and Gazzy were doing math.
"Yeah but my big brother barely comes and visits, and when he does he's barely home."
"Angel, I'm sorry. I will try to fix that. Now go back to your homeschooling."
