Nico: You fail.
Me: You… shadow travel.
Nico: Um… yeah?
Me: das hawt.
Nico: O_O
Max POV
Really, I thought that that was it. Then I forgot… those were only commercials of our lives apparently.
"Alright so now I can show you guys actual scenes. Like, future home videos and stuff." Nudge said, grinning. We all nodded.
"Dr. M, would you mind getting the lights?" Nudge asked.
Jeb, who'd been sitting quietly (and angrily… he didn't like me and Fang making out at all apparently… and although I wish I could make him angry some other way, I was happy) stood and muttered, "I'll get it." And then we were back in 'La la future Land'.
"This, is one of my favorite's from Max and Fang's music videos…"
I stared at her in shock. So, I guess we eventually give that guy from Hollywood another chance, eh?
The screen came to life, and I tried not to cringe.
Another piano started to play, and it didn't sound our style at all. But then this guitar picked up again. And I watched as it showed Fang strumming a guitar with an intense air about him.
You come to me with your scars on your wrist
You tell me this will be the last night feeling like this
Fang's voice, but in the music video he would be looking at me, singing to me.
I just came to say goodbye
I didn't want you to see me cry, I'm fine
Not to sound conceited but… I had a good voice. But, question is, where did it come from?!
But I know it's a lie
Fang's voice was back. He sang most of the next part…
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
Your parents say everything is your fault
But they don't know you like I know you they don't know you at all
Right then it showed my parents, not looking much different turning around to look at me.
My voice came back in, sounding more feminine than I thought I could ever really sound.
I'm so sick of when they say
It's just a phase, you'll be okay you're fine
But I know it's a lie
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
The last night away from me
Then it showed Fang with his arms around me, then quickly flashed to my own eyes (which had… wait, was that make-up?! I don't think I'm gonna let any of this happen…) which were brown and looking better than I thought they did.
The night is so long when everything's wrong
If you give me your hand
I will help you hold on
Tonight
Tonight
Fang (on screen) paused. Everything did, the music, everything. Just when the music picked back up and Fang began to sing again, but his hand was on my face, like he was reassuring me.
I won't let you say goodbye
And I'll be your reason why
The last night away from me
Away from me
I didn't notice my jaw on the floor until it finally stopped. I looked at Fang, whose eyes were wide, and then he blinked. Which meant he was unbelievably shocked.
Nudge, Angel, and Ella all giggled. Gazzy scrunched up his nose. Iggy snickered. Jeb glared. Mom sighed dreamily.
"That was a stupid cheesy romantic video that had no point whatsoever." I finally noticed that Total had the decency to trot right in and lay on Angel's feet.
"Hey, I thought it was adorable." Said Ella, tilting her head to side looking dreamy.
"You like that kind of stuff?" Iggy asked, his eyes widening.
"Well… yeah, I mean. It's cute and it shows how much Fang loves Max."
I shoved down the red creeping onto my cheeks and I knew Fang was fighting the red creeping onto his neck.
But I was wrong.
"Well, I think it all matters on what Max thought about the video." Fang said, grinning and turning to me.
I glared. "Well, I think it all matters on what Fang thought about the video."
We glared at eachother and Fang eventually raised an eyebrow.
"I liked it." Fang said, and then turned back toward the screen.
I pulled back abruptly, realizing that I didn't think he'd say a thing. But nope, he'd just straight out said that he enjoyed a music video with us basically professing our undying love to eachother.
But oh heck, I did it in a book, didn't I?
I decided I had nothing to lose.
I crawled over and kissed him quickly. "I liked it too."
I also knew it'd make Jeb mad, so I was a very happy girl. (HAHA I almost put a smiley face right there: ^-^)
Okay again, just go listen to the actual song really loud and imagine. It's the funnest thing to do and it'll get you through long drives unbelievably easily. Seriously, play your favorite song and think of your own scene with the characters! They don't even have to be Maximum Ride! They can be any of your books or movies or even you and your dream guy/girl! I don't usually do that, considering I dream of being single for the rest of my life, but I DO enjoy torturing Fang and Max in my head… BWUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! XD
