Sorry my chapters have been so short. I just haven't had a lot of time lately.

Gazzy POV
I couldn't believe my luck! Not only do I have something to blackmail Max with, but I was going on a date with Nudge. I wondered if she would agree. I had liked her since we'd moved in and she, Fang and Ella came over to "welcome us to the neighborhood". I knew that Fang liked Max, it was pretty obvious. The way he looked at her, like he wanted to hold her and never let her go, made it a little awkward for me (she IS my sister) but made me wonder, do I look at Nudge like that? Deep down, I wished I hadn't walked in on them. Even though Max was crying, they looked so peaceful. Yeesh. I'm turning into a girl! Not that there's anything wrong with girls, it's just that I don't wanna be one. I walked back to the kitchen to continue my argument with Iggy. All of a sudden, the doorbell rang. Max screeched "I'll get it!" and sprinted to the door. To my surprise, it was Nudge.
"Hey Max, I think I left my phone here can we go check?"
"Sure". They started to head upstairs, but before they could get out of the kitchen, I grabbed Max's arm.
"Don't forget to ask her about you know what!" She rolled her eyes.
"As if I could forget about my little brother's crush on one of my best friends!", she whispered back.

Nudge POV
Before Max and I went upstairs, Gazzy pulled her back. He whispered something to her before she rolled her eyes and answered him. We then left the kitchen. Once we were in her room, Max cleared her throat.
"Hey Nudge, this is gonna sound weird but Gazzy caught me and Fang hugging and he's blackmailing me, so do you wanna go out with him?" My mouth gaped open. Gazzy wanted to go out with me! I tried to stay cool.
"Duh I wanna go out with him! I've liked him since you guys moved here! I can't wait to tell Ella!"

Fang POV
I heard Nudge scream from next door. I wonder what Gazzy did this time? Knowing him, probably something horrible, like blowing up Max's bedroom or something like that. That kid needs something else to do. I swear to God, if he played more sports, none of the stuff he does to get in trouble would happen. The stink bomb(s), the real bomb(s), etcetera. I'm just glad he and Iggy are such good friends. I thought about Max. Her tearstreaked face before Gazzy barged in, her big chocolaty colored
eyes, her sun-streaked blonde hair, her soft pink lips… God. It's official, I'm obsessed. She's so gorgeous! Why doesn't she see that I like her?

Max POV
I was sooooo bored, just sitting in my room while Gazzy and Nudge flirted. Barf. Just then, my phone rang, and I leaped to answer it. It was Lissa.
"Hey Liss. What's up?"
"I have nothing to do! Wanna come to the mall with me?" I sighed.
"Sorry, can't. I don't wanna leave Angel alone with Gazzy".
"So ask Fang to watch her. She's got him wrapped around her little finger".
"Fine".
"Great! I'll come get you in 10, kay?"
"Sure, whatever". I hung up and went to go get Angel.
"Hey sweetie, I'm goin' to the mall with Lissa, wanna see if you can hang out with Fang?" Her whole face lit up.
"Yeah!"
"Kay, let's go ask him". She grabbed my hand and skipped all the way over to Fang's house. I knocked, and Ella answered.
"Hey Ells. Is Fang here?"
"Yup. FANG! Come down here Max wants to talk to you". He came sprinting down the stairs and skidded to a stop a foot in front of the door.
"Yeah Max?" Ella started edging out of the room.
"I'll just leave you two alone for now.." An indignant Angel decided to pipe up.
"Ella? I'm here too!"
"Whatever", and she left the room.
"So".
"So".
"Can you watch Angel for me for a little while? Lissa wants me to go to the mall with her".
"Sure". I sighed with relief.
"Thanks a million! See you in, like, an hour!"

Fang POV
Great. It's a Saturday afternoon, and I, being the incredibly popular guy that I am, am at home babysitting a five-year-old. Just great.
"Alright kiddo, what do you wanna do first?"
"Play dress-up!" I sighed. This was gonna be a long hour.

Max POV
I was so glad I got a break from everything that was going on. I hopped into Lissa's car and caught her staring at me.
"What?" Then I looked down. Oh shit. I hadn't changed out of Ella's preptastic clothes. But Lissa, being the good friend that she is, forgot about what I was wearing and started talking about school and stuff. Once at the mall, we went to stores that fit both of our tastes. When we were in Forever 21, Brigid and her group came up to us.
"Wow Max, you look like an actual girl for once. What's your secret?" The girls standing behind her snickered. I started to grind my teeth together, but Lissa just placed a hand on my shoulder as if to say, "I'll handle this".
"Actually Brigid, I was just wondering how you managed to look normal, instead of like a ho as usual". She huffed and stomped away as I high-fived Lissa.
"Nice one!"
"Thanks, I do pride myself on my comebacks". We linked arms and spent the next hour window-shopping and gossiping.

Hope you liked it! Please review! I need 5 reviews for the next chapter. Thanks!
