A/N Second last chapter…
ALERT! This song is also one that I made on the spot. Don't kill me if it isn't to your taste.
Bold is Max singing
Italicized is Fang singing
Bold italicized is both Max and Fang singing
Chapter 3
As the concert drew to an end, the vocalist said, "For my last song, I would like to invite my best friend up on stage to join me in a duet. Fang." She looked at him. Somehow, his legs seemed to ditch his mind and started walking towards Max, up the stage. That had to be Angel's doing, Fang thought nervously. The whole stadium had gone quiet and watched as he made his way up.
When Fang got to Max, she took down her dark glasses, tucked them into her jeans pocket and looked at him in the eye. Then she handed him a microphone and gave and 'ok' sign in the direction of the Flock. The 'ok' sign had four meanings.
It's for Iggy to drop a bomb. But she couldn't have been telling Iggy to drop a bomb because the stage, along with everyone in the stadium, would be gone by then.
It's for Nudge to start talking. She couldn't have been telling her to do that because there was no tell tale signs of people clamping their hands over their ears.
It's for the Gasman to fill the stadium with his trademark scent. It couldn't be that either because people would have started screaming and pinching their noses.
It's for Angel to use her mind reading abilities. It had to be that, because words started filling his head along with a tune he had never heard before.
Max signaled to the band and said as the introduction played, "This song, is not in the album, it's a song I made for a special someone. It's called 'Unavoidable'." Max patted Fang's shoulder and the words started escaping her lips.
"I've seen you all my life
And I've never expected this
This sense of security
Just by doing this"
Max kissed Fang lightly on the lips before continuing, amidst gasps from the audience and Fang himself, who was gaping at her like a total moron.
"I've never had a chance
To tell you what you are to me
This sense of security
Just a smile for me"
Max smiled sadly at Fang and he started singing in surprisingly clear and nice voice.
"I've seen you all my life
Through sunshine rain storms starry nights
This feeling of warmth you give
I will win all fights"
Fang looked at Max incredulously. She had made this song about them? Giving her one of his rare smiles, he continued as her face lighted up.
"I've seen you all my life
I had wished you were something more
This feeling of warmth you give
Will never ever fall"
Fang grabbed one of her hands and she smiled brightly at him, so bright that it could light up ten stadiums of the size of the one they were in. Then they sang the chorus in perfect unison.
"It's unavoidable
This feeling we push away
We're pretty much in denial
Every hour everyday"
Fang squeezed her hand and she squeezed back.
"It's unavoidable
It's supernatural
This feeling we both have
For each other every hour"
Fang kissed Max on the lips hard, but thank goodness the next verse came about fifteen seconds later and not immediately.
"We'll see each other daily
Every second of our life
We don't know what will happen
But for now we'll enjoy life"
"Oh yes we will," Fang whispered into her ear, "You're not leaving me ever again." Max chuckled and went on.
"We'll see each other daily
Every second of our life
We'll sacrifice ourselves
If one of us takes the knife"
"The knife? A bit too much aren't you?"Fang said and sang his bit.
"We'll see each other daily
Every second of our life
We'll be living in paradise
Every second of our life"
Max tip-toed and whispered into his ear, "Someday we will have our own paradise." She smiled at him and he smiled back.
"We'll see each other daily
Every second of our life
Just promise me one thing
That you'll become my wife"
Max looked at him in shock. 'Just promise me one thing, that you'll become my wife'? That wasn't part of the song! Fang shrugged and said, "Someday I hope you'll consent to that. But first, we'll have to date." Max whacked his arm playfully and said, "Oh, I'll date you alright. Just give me more time to think about that marriage proposal."
"It's unavoidable
This feeling we push away
We're pretty much in denial
Every hour everyday"
"I promise never to let go of you," Fang said to Max.
"It's unavoidable
It's supernatural
This feeling we both have
For each other every hour"
"And I promise there won't be any replacements," Max said. Fang feigned shock and asked, "You mean there are people out there who are better than me?" She swatted his arm and they continued the song.
"You're irreplaceable
Nothing can come between us
You're no ordinary person
You're so special to me"
"See what I mean?" Max said and planted a kiss on his cheek.
"You're wonderful
And you're my everything
You're the only one
You're everything to me"
"You know what?" Fang asked, "I like your song." He buried his face into her hair, she giggled a little and pushed him away. He pretended to be sad and she laughed out loud, in front of everybody. "You're really special, you know!" She touched his nose with hers.
"You're irreplaceable
And you're my everything
You're no ordinary person
You're everything to me"
"Max, you're so gonna stay with us forever. Maybe you should get your band a home nearby so you can continue your singing career."
"You're my world
The ground I stand on
The shoulder I cry on
The person I live for
The person I'd die for"
The song ended and the whole stadium went quiet, then burst into applause. Max and Fang stood on the stage, fingers entwined, smiling at each other like there was no tomorrow.
