It's official! I'm back! This part was written by my new coauthor, Kallik of Gallifrey, and I edited and changed some of it. :)

Max's POV

I can't stop thinking about that kiss, and it seems neither can Fang. All through lunch and the rest of the day he kept looking at me when he thought no one was looking. Including me. But I noticed every one of them and realized I kept doing it to. Maybe living here won't be so bad after all...

Anyway...

That night when I got home I was in such a daze I forgot about Nudge and Ella, who happened to be waiting for me. Ugh.

"So, Max. You and Fang are a couple now?" asked Ella. Crap.

"Yeah, I mean, you two would make such a cute couple. You with your tough act and him with his Emo act. You know, I highly doubt he isn't Emo. I mean, just look at him. He wears black EVERY FREAKIN DAY! I have never seen him in another color. Thinking about that I have only seen him once but-" she was cut off when Ella put her hand over Nudge's mouth.

"Nudge," Ella said in a warning voice, then she slowly took her hand off her mouth.

"Sorry, I just got carried away."

"You always get carried away!"

While they were talking I snuck away. By the time they noticed I was gone I was almost to my room. When I heard them running up the stairs I ran to my room and locked the door.

"Let us in! We want to know-" I cut her off.

"Too bad, you won't be getting in today or anytime in the future or I will kick you into next week!" I answered.

Fang's POV:

She kissed me. She actually kissed. In a closet! In a frickin' closet! She's a pretty sick kisser. It was like a jolt of electricity had run through me when we kissed. Stupid Sam. He had to ruin it. Then there was Ella and JJ. If they weren't there I could have talked to her.

What did they mean by, and I quote, "I guess Iggy didn't need us to get you to together after all"? Oh well. I can ask her tomorrow at school.

I wonder If I should ask her out. I mean, she did kiss me, so that means she likes me. Right? Relationships are so confusing.

Maybe I should call Iggy. He's had many girlfriends before.

"Iggy."

"WHAT? Why are you calling it is like, 9 o'clock and I have a big test!" Silence followed. "...Just joking you know."

"I know, its just that this is really important."

"Wow! A sentence! I am amazed!"

"Iggy!'

"Sorry, couldn't help it. So, what's up?"

"I need relationship advice-" He cut me off.

"SO you ARE going out with Max. Like, for REAL!"

"Yes Iggy, I am, now may I ask my question"

"Sure!"

"So, she kissed me in a closet. Does that make her my girlfriend?"

"What do you mean is she your girlfriend? If she kissed you, for real, with no apparent reason, she most definately likes you! Are you and idiot?'

"No, I just figured I would ask. Night."

"Night."

It's safe to say I didn't fall asleep for a solid hour and a half. And when my eyes finally shut, all I could see was a certain brown-eyed girl.


MY PART! :)


Max's POV

What is the big deal with moi having a boyfriend? It's not like I haven't had one before!

Okay, confession time, I haven't! But, what's it matter? I watch sitcoms! I see movies! Being all lovey-dovey isn't exactly my forté, but it's a free country! I can change!

God, I need to spend less time with Nudge.

No joke.

I jumped. I just heard a Voice in my head... that wasn't mine.

That's it. I'm crazy. Slap on the cuffs and take me to the nuthouse.

No, Maximum, you're not imagining this. I'm not disagreeing with the crazy part, but I am in fact, real.

Jerk. Wow, I just insulted myself... twice.

Maximum, listen. Be careful. This may not make sense now, or tomorrow, but it will in the new future. Beware.

I whispered quietly to myself, "Beware... of what?"

Patience is a virtue. Wait and find out.

Okay... so this 'Voice' is telling to WAIT? God, it's inside my head, and knows NOTHING about me.

I rolled my eyes, and peeked outside my door. No Nudge, no Ella.

Yay.

I slipped through the crack and slowly closed the door behind me.

"Max!" I heard.

Angel...

"Max! I'M GOING CRAZY!"

Me too, Ange. Me too.

I quietly tiptoed to her bedroom.

"Why?" I asked.

She replied, "I think... I just... read Nudge's mind.

"Honey, I don't think so. Here, try reading mine."

Hi Angel.

"Hi, Max."

I nearly dropped my jaw.

Then, Nudge burst into the room. She was holding a paper clip.

"Urm... Max? Angel? I was sitting down and this... thing... just, like, became attached to my hand!" she gasped.

She held he palm facedown. The paper clip didn't fall to the ground.

I ran downstairs. "MOM!"

She looked over at me. Nudge and Angel came up behind me.

Mom's eyes went wide-eyed.

"Confession time," I 'tsk'ed.

What'cha think? I hate it... I just didn't want this story to be all, "FANG! SAY I LOVE YOU ALREADY!" "OKAY! I LOVE YOU!" "I LOVE YOU TOO!" ...the end-y. Ya know?

Wow, my A/N's suck.

YOU HATE ME!

I HATE YOU!

GO KILL BARNEY!

AND THEN REVIEW!
