Ella's POV
Well, as well we thought last night went Iggy and I still had to deal with the concisenesses.
I felt Max's eyes burning on the back of my head. Fang had taken Iggy into the back yard because we all knew it would end up in a fist fight. I still didn't understand how Max had no problem with that. Max was pacing back and forth. Iggy had taught me how to identify people by there foot steps. I wasn't very good, with my un-advanced human hearing, but Max's foot steps were so darn obvious. It's hard to explain.
"Ella, Ella, Ella how could you?" Said Max, breaking my trance. "I thought you were my sister!"
"I am your sister Max. That doesn't mean I can't have relationships with your friends!" ok that sounded a lot better in my head.
"Not with one of my flock and besides he's two years older than you!" Max's voice was rising. "I just can't believe you could stab me in the back like that!"
"How did I stab you in the back?" I asked standing up to face her.
"First of all you purposely walked in on me and Fang, then you started laughing at Iggy's comments about us! And last you were making out with Iggy! A member of MY flock! And Fang found the paper you guys wrote your 'plan' onto! Wow Ella! I just can't even," Her face was a purple and red colour. "I forbid you to be alone with him!" she said in a huff.
"What?" My voice squeaked.
"I think you heard me!" She said.
"You know your not my mom!" I yelled
"Yea but I know Mom would do the same thing! And besides I haven't told her yet so if I catch you two alone together Mom's going to find out!" She came back snidely.
I looked up at her and said the only words that came to my mind. "I really can't believe you anymore. I hate you," And with that I turned and ran into my room quickly stuffing clothes and other must haves in my bag. "I really," I mumbled swear words as I packed. Then again I knew Max was the protective type and she didn't want mine or Iggy's feelings hurt but she had no right to forbid me to see him. It's like if I tried to forbid her from seeing Fang. Speaking of Fang I wonder if Mom knows about Fang and Max yet. If Max told on me then I could tell on her! Wait Ella thats the worst plan I've ever heard! Of course Mom knows about Max and Fang everyone does! "God dammit!"I said out loud.
"Watch your language Miss Martinez!"I heard my mom say from my open door way. Wait Mom wasn't going to be home until three. I turned around.
"Gazzy! You scared me have to death!" I growled.
"Yeah whatever, Hey Iggy's outside and he seems really upset. He wouldn't talk to me about it. He mumbled some stuff about how he's going to kill Fang slowly with a butter knife or some kind of shit,"
"You watch your language little boy! I'm 14, but you, your 10! you have no right to say shit!"
"Just going off what I hear!"
"Well stop it!" I seriously couldn't believe that such a sweet kid could talk like that! But I had more important things to be upset about. "Well what else about Iggy?"
"He said he needed to talk to you," then he gave me a confused expression. "He said I had to be there though because Dr. Martinez, I mean your mom, has access to dangerous interments of torture or something," I glanced out the window over the back yard. Iggy sat out there a couple scratches and bruises covered his arms but nothing major. He sat all alone with his face in his hands, crying? Iggy never cried. Oh My God! Something was definitely wrong here! Maybe he's not crying, maybe Fang just got him in the eye. Hopefully. I know that sounds bad but it so much better then one of the flock members crying. "It's ok Gaz just go play or whatever little boys do," I said not really paying attention.
"Ok fine. Oh and Ella?" I turned to look at him. "If anything does happen, I just want you to take good care of him. He's my best friend and I have no clue what I'd do if he was all weird and lovey all the time. Ya know?"
I smiled. "I get your drift," He looked at me suspiciously one last time before exiting my door way.
I exhaled loudly and tossed my bag down out my second story window. It made a loud thud as it hit the ground. I gripped the drain pipe. Hear goes nothing. I held on tight to the pipe as I shimmied down it. Owch. Cut myself. I bit my lip. And jumped the last four feet. I picked up my bag and turn around looking at window making sure Max or anyone else was watching. When I though I was clear I ran over to Iggy and grabbed his wrist. "Stand up. Walk into the house. Pack a overnight bag. Then come out her and meet me I'll be standing by the edge of the woods. Don't talk to anyone. Kay?"
He angled his face up at me. He was crying. We were going to have to talk about that later. But he nodded. I sunk back into the woods. About fifteen minutes later a fair skinned bean pole of a bird kid grabbed my from behind. I squeaked.
"How in the Hell?" I asked in disbelief.
"Now Ella," I he butterflies in my stomach danced when he said my name."First of all we need to watch our language! Second living with fang for 16 years can teach you how to be," he grinned "sneaky,"the last word was said with a major lisp.
"You sound just like the Gasman!" I smiled so did Iggy. His face was less read and blotchy but we still need to talk about it.
"What do you mean I sound jut like Gazzy?"
"He told me to watch my language because I said Dammit, but then he goes off and says shit and thinks it's ok! He's ten!" I said exasperated. I love the Flock living with us but sometimes!
"Sorry he must have picked it up from me," He said sheepishly.
"He might have mentioned something like that," I said rolling my eyes.
Iggy chuckled.
I had lived in this house my entire fourteen years of life and I knew the woods like the back of my hand. I took us down a long nature created path which lead to a small stream. With big rocks lining it. We walked in silence until we got there. I couldn't help to look at him I just wanted to know why could have made him so upset. And what ever it was I needed to do something about it not just because Gazzy told me to but because I loved- errr liked Iggy, a lot.
Iggy felt me looking at him. "You saw me crying didn't you," Wow he was blunt about it.
"Um, yeah," I said twirling my hair, it was my nervous habit.
"Fang told me that," he hesitated.
"That we couldn't be alone together anymore," i finish his sentence.
"Yeah, that."
I walked over to the rock he was sitting on and jumped up on it with him. I leaned my head onto his shoulder. "Do you ever think about what will happen later in life?" I asked.
"What do you mean? Like marriage? A family? Sure I do but I try to shut down those thoughts just in case we actually do have expiration dates," he said calmly. I couldn't believe he, they had to live with that hanging over their heads.
"But just for a second how do you imagine yourself with in say, ten years?" I pried.
"Do you really want to know?"
I gave him the 'uh duh!' expression but then realized it wouldn't work. "Kinda," I was kind of doubting myself because of the way he was acting.
"Well I've always imagined myself living with the flock still, I mean where else is a freakishly tall blind guy with wings going to go. I mean, if you haven't noticed society doesn't really accept a blind guy cooking their food, or handling bombs. I figured we'd always be fugitives or unwanted, in the shadows but truthfully I haven't thought about that in literally years," he bit his lip after dropping that on me. Iggy turned his head to face me. "How about you?"
"Umm well I have the same dream as every other girl my age, to become famous. But I actually have talent so there's that. Wait did that sound conceded?"
Iggy laughed. "No and I know you have talent. Your aware of your acting talent. But what you don't realize is your a good singer too," he paused and grinned. "Ella Martinez double, wait no, triple threat," My silence told him I wasn't getting it. "Actress, singer, and super hot model!" he said using hand movements as if the words were popping out of his hands.
I lightly hit his arm. "Stop it! How would you know?" Oh crap I hope that didn't sound as bad as I thought!
He just smiled. "Well I have my sources."
"Sometimes, i swear," I said looking up at him.
"If I tell you a secret do you promise not to be mad at me?"
I pondered a bit. "No, well it depends,"
"I know this sounds bad but first I didn't think of you as what I think of you know. Ya know?" I looked as though he didn't know how to say whatever he was trying to say.
"umm, sure?" I really didn't.
"Well I know this sounds bad but at first I just kinda, thought you were just, a-a piece of ass I could use to get back at Max and Fang," I looked really regretful for saying that, he had good reason. I was Max's sister and if we had one main thing in common it was blood lust. "But I realized you were so much more it was I first intent but after the first day I actually spent with you I knew you were so much more. I swear!" This was a first ,oh I guess second. He started crying. Wow I was starting to have my doubts about this kid.
I stood up and looked shocked. "ARE YOU SERIOUS!" I couldn't believe what in god's creation I was hearing.
"Ella I know your different know. I really like you! Ella if I didn't like you what I do this?" I had my back turned to him when all of the sudden I felt his large hand on my waist spinning me around. His sightless electric blue eyes burned on me. And then ,he leaned in and kissed me. I tried to pull away but just couldn't not because he was holding me there but because my body wouldn't do what my brain wanted. I know this sounds I was reacting with my heart.
I felt as though we were together for hours. He pulled apart first. "So we staying over night?"
"Why do you think I made you pack a bag dipshit?" I said smiling. "Hey you wanna know a secret but you can't get mad when I tell you,"
"Ok so I'll react like you did," he said smirking.
"Not funny," I said giving him a scowl which obviously didn't work. "And I hope you realize that I'm saying this because I have to come back at you, but you do realize that was my plan this whole time,"
"Really then why did you get so worked up about it when I told you?" I asked smugly.
"You know I really hate you sometimes?" I said playfully.
"But you want in my pants so that makes up for it," he laughed. I picked up a small rock and tossed it at him.
"Shut up!" I whined.
"You didn't deny it!"
And this is were, my good people, I tackled him, to the grownd.
And that lead to, you guessed it, kissing! Well I hope you can all go to sleep now because your caught up in my love life.
