MAX POV

The next day went pretty smoothly.

We all arrived at the airport, our teacher took attendance, we checked and got on the plane.

Wait, here's the best part: I had to sit in between Sam and Fang.

Perfect, right?

I watched a couple movies and after a while, I got bored.

I decided to sleep.

I let my eyes drift shut, and soon I was gone.

My eyes fluttered open, as I took in my surroundings.

I was covered in a warm blue blanket, and my head was leaning on something.

I looked up at what I was leaning on.

Fang.

"You could have moved me you know." I asked curiously, not moving my head.

He looked away from his mini-tv.

"I know. I didn't want to wake you up."

I smiled.

I sat up

"Didn't you sleep?" I asked.

He smirked,"Trust me, I tried. It's impossible to fall asleep when you're snoring."

I scowled.

"I don't snore"

"Yeah, you do"

This time he smiles.

My breath leaves me in a whoosh

I look away and when I turn back Fang is looking at me, confused.

"You okay?" he asked, concerned.

"Um, yeah, I'm fine," replied brushing it off.

His eyes lock onto mine.

I had to bite my lip to keep myself from gasping.

I'd been avoiding his eyes lately, knowing that if I looked at them, I was sure to get lost.

I was right.

I just couldn't look away.

I felt myself leaning towards him.

Suddenly the intercom comes on.

"Please return to your seats and put on your seat belts. We will be arriving at Paris shortly"

I blush furiously and pull away.

After we land we grab our luggage and walk to hotel next door.

We get some rooms and our teacher tells us to meet in the lobby in an hour.

Ella and I walk to our room and unpack our stuff.

One hour later

We all sat on some comfortable couches in the lobby waiting for Mr.H.

He came down with some other guy.

"class, this is Connor. He's going to help us get around."

I look at Connor.

I can almost hear some of the other girls in my class mentally squeal.

I don't blame them.

The guy was insanely hot.

He was as tall as Fang and he was built too.

His eyes were dark brown, unlike Fang's onyx eyes.

His hair was also dark brown and it hung on his forehead.

Actually, he only looked about a year older than us.

He catches my eyes and winks at me.

I smile and blush.

He claps his hands together.

"Okay," he says in a perfect american accent, "Tomorrow we're going to split into two groups. Half will go with me and the other half will go with Mr.H. We're going to be doing some sightseeing."

We all cheer.

" There are a couple good restaurants nearby, or you guys can order room service. Either way, you all should eat a good meal and get some sleep for tomorrow."

And on that not, we all go back to our rooms.

Ella and I order some food from room service and watch some French TV.

After we eat, Ig comes over and starts making out with Ella.

Ewww!

There's a soft knock on the door.

I opened it and saw Fang standing there impassively with his hands in his pockets.

"Hey" he says

"Um..hi" I reply.

"You want to go for a walk?"

I consider my options: Go for a walk with Fang or watch Iggy and Ella make out.

"Sure" I say

We walk to the park nearby and sit on a bench.

I think for a while.

"What are you thinking about?" asks Fang.

"Nothing," I answer a little too quickly.

I was thinking about him actually.

He puts his hand under my chin and turns my face towards his.

"Max. What's been going on with you lately. Haven't you gotten over Sam yet?"

"I have gotten over him."

I sigh.

" I just have had a lot on my mind lately."

mainly him.

Fang tilts his head, confused.

"Seriously," I say," I haven't thought about Sam all day"

He smiles," Good."

My breath catches again and we lean towards each other.

stop it, I tell myself, he's you best friend, you can't kiss him.

I can't stop myself.

Our lips connect, and fireworks go off in my head.

My arms automatically go around his neck, pulling him closer.

Stop it, Max or you're gonna regret it, says the little voice in my head.

But I don't listen, I'm too preoccupied with Fangs rough lips on mine.

Fang pulls away, breathing raggedly, just like me.

My brain goes into panic mode.

I jump up and sprint back to my room.

Iggy had already left and Ella was sleeping on one of the beds.

I changed into my pajamas and got into the other bed.

I couldn't help but wander into my memories of the park.

Did I want to stop kissing Fang?

No.

Did I want to run away, and make Fang feel horrible?

No

Did I get any sleep that night?

Wait for it...no!
