IGGY – POV
Seeing how happy Fang and Max were I realised that I wanted that with Ella. I've loved her for a while now. Not as some sort of crush or anything, but as in the way Fang loves Max.
I walked over to Ella who was trying hard not to cry at Max and Fang who were now just staring into each other's eyes.
"Can I talk to you?"
She jumped at the sound of my voice. "Yeah, course."
I took her hand and pulled her over to a quiet corner of the Hall. All the time I held her hand I could feel electricity running though my body. It felt exactly the way Fang had described the electric current that passed between him and Max.
"What's up Iggy?"
"Nothing. I just wanted to tell you something."
"Go on." Oh, my god. I've never noticed how deep her eyes go.
I took a shaky breath. "Ella, I won't lie to you anymore. I don't love you as a sister like I always say I do. I love you so much more than that. Even if you don't feel the same way about me then even that won't change the way I feel ab." Oh, my god. I've never noticed how deep her eyes go.
I took a shaky breath. "Ella, I won't lie to you anymore. I don't love you as a sister like I always say I do. I love you so much more than that. Even if you don't feel the same way about me then even that won't change the way I feel about you. I love you Ella. Be my girlfriend?"
I never broke eye contact when I said that. It seemed to mean more when Fang had done that when he proposed to Max.
"Oh, Iggy. I... I... I love you too!"
Next thing I knew her lips were on mine. The electric current grew stronger and stronger as we carried on. Her hands had locked themselves around my neck and mine and wrapped around her waist, pulling her closer. We finally broke off for air.
"Can I take that as a yes?" I could feel a smirk appear on my face.
"Yep."
We hugged and turned to find everyone staring at us. I could feel my face flush and turn pink. I looked at Ella and saw that she had gone completely red.
I pulled her over despite still being pink.
Everyone gave us hugs and Dr. M kissed Ella's forehead despite her protests. The night turned out to be very exciting after all. Me and Ella got together and shared our first kiss and Max and Fang fell in love all over again. The night was perfect.
NUDGE – POV
These eight weeks have gone sooooo fast! It only seems like yesterday that Fang proposed to Max. That was sooooo sweet! He was, like, 'Max, you've stolen my heart!' that's all I can remember. Well, I can remember more than that but I can't be bothered to repeat it all over again. That would just be boring. And I'm not a boring person! Am I? No I'm not. Good.
I feel like singing. Well, in my head anyway. Here goes!
I met a man of two feet tall
This man was quite ambitious
In a world that is so vicious to us all
I said, "Hi," as he replied
He said, "Listen to these words
That I have lived by my whole life
"You're only as tall as your heart will let you be
And you're only as small as the world will make you seem
When the going gets rough and you feel like you may fall
Just look on the brightside - you're roughly six feet tall"
I met a man of 12 feet tall
He towered like a giant
In a world that was defiant of his height
I said, "Hi," as he replied
He said, "Listen to these words
That I have dreaded my whole life
"You're only as tall as your heart will let you be
And you're only as small as the world will make you seem
When the going gets rough and you feel like you may fall
Just look on the brightside - you're roughly six feet tall."
I am a man of six feet tall
Just looking for some answers
In a world that answers none of them at all
I'll say, "Hi," but not reply
To the letters that you write
Because I found some peace of mind
Cause I'm only as tall as my heart will let me be
And I'm only as small as the world will make me seem
When the going gets rough and I feel like I may fall
I'll look on the brightside - I'm roughly six feet tall.
"Nudge! You've gone and gotten that song stuck in my head now!" Angel stomped out of our room.
I laughed. She could be sooooo dramatic sometimes. I heard Angel scream in annoyance.
"Nudge? What have you done to make Angel annoyed?" Max walked in and started to try and tame my mess of hair.
"Nothing! I was trying to sort my hair out and I was thinking about how sweet Fang sounded when he proposed when I felt like singing for some reason so I sang 'On the Brightside' by never shout never in my head. What's so bad about that? I mean, come on! Who could be so dramatic? Even I couldn't be that dramatic! I don't even understand how she doesn't like Never Shout Never! I mean, who doe.."
Max had placed her hand over my mouth to stop me talking. God that's annoying.
"You know she doesn't like Never Shout Never so please, Nudge, if you're going to sing in your head, don't do it around Angel. Why don't you try singing in the shower? Wait, don't do that. Now go say sorry to Angel."
"Kay." I skipped out of my room leaving Max behind.
