Chapter 6

"Max!!" Nudge yelled. "You just ran into a tree!"

"You think I didn't notice that?" I asked sarcastically. "Report," I said.

"I'm okay," said Nudge from the back seat.

"I'm okay too," Ella added.

"I want to go talk with him," Angel said calmly, looking out the window.

"Angel, I—" I started, and the stopped as I looked in the direction Angel was staring. Running towards us was Gazzy, closely followed by Iggy and...well you know who else was with them.

"Shit," I muttered, as people started crowding around the car. "Shit, shit, shit!"

"Since when do you cuss?" Ella asked, trying to open the door.

"Since now," I snarled. I glanced out the window and was horrified to see that Gazzy had made it to the car and was opening the door closest to Angel.

"Angel!!" he said grabbing her out and giving her a hug. "I never thought I would see you again!"

"Shit," I said again, as Iggy pulled open Ella's door.

"Ohmigosh!" exclaimed Nudge. "I only so you guys from far away, so I had no idea it was you!! Omigosh!! Max it's—"

"I know, Nudge," I said angrily, shoving my door open.

As soon as I got out of the car I saw Fang (I should probably get used to thinking his name again) smirking at me.

"You ran into a tree," he said looking at the car, that had obviously hit a tree.

"I noticed," I said back.

"Did you think it would look good to have a big dent in the front of the car, or where you trying to look like an idiot," he said, his smirk getting bigger.

"Could you just shut up please?" I said. I felt like I was about to cry from all the stress and she sure as hell wasn't helping.

"Are you alright?" he asked, looking concerned suddenly. I forgot how well he could read me.

"I'm fine," I said, feeling tears starting to spill over. "I just need to leave."

I started walking away, heading over to an area where I could take off, when Fang suddenly grabbed my arm, stopping me from going anywhere.

"I'll come with you," he told me, grabbing my arm and yanking me over.

"No you won't," I said, trying to get away. He's stronger than I remembered.

"Yes, I will," he said calmly, pulling me over behind the school. I watched as he pulled off his sweatshirt and whipped out his wings. "Well?" he said, turning to me.

"Right," I muttered. I quickly took my hoddie off and shook my wings out. "Where are we going?"

"Not sure," Fang said. I watched as he took off, looking amazing and graceful. I couldn't help but admire him for a moment before taking off too.

I followed him for a couple of miles, when we landed in a clearing in the middle of a forest. As soon as we landed I sat down with my back against a tree and he sat down next to me. I could feel the tears still threatening to fall, so I decided I probably shouldn't talk. I figured he would say something eventually. Maybe.

"Well?" I said eventually. "What do you want?"

"Did I do something wrong?" he asked after a couple of minutes.

"Huh?" I said, confused. "What do you mean?"

"I mean, you left," Fang said. "Obviously I did something wrong." He said it calmly enough, but I could tell that he was really upset about it.

"You didn't do anything wrong," I explained. "I was the one who was stupid."

"Why couldn't we have talked it out?" he asked, his voice getting louder. "Why didn't you stay? Do you know how upset Gazzy was? Angel was his sister, and you just took her away! No contact for years!! What the hell where you thinking?!"

For a minute I didn't know what to say. I'd never seen Fang lose his temper like that, ever. Too late I realized I was crying right in front of him. "I'm sorry," I whispered. "I'm so sorry."

"I am too," he said, already sounding calmer. "I didn't mean to make you cry."

"That's okay," I muttered, wiping the tears away. I looked down, waiting for him to say more, and was surprised to hear silence. I looked up to see his face very close to mine. And then he leaned in and kissed me. This was one crazy day.

So, I have a little Fax in this chapter. There will be more in the next one. It might seen OOC for Max to break down like that, but she's been beating herself up about leaving Fang and his flock so the whole mental break down thing was bond to happen sometime. And now Fang's there to comfort her!

R&R!!
