A/N OMGP I am SOOOOOOOOO sorry this wasn't up sooner, School, homework and all. Plus, I had stop the little people in my head from murdering each other! Especially Rose and River. Yes, they named themselves after Doctor who characters. I also had to feed my flesh eating turtles. I have two. One eats grilled human flesh and the other eats deep fried squirrel flesh... ANYWAYS~ on with chapter 7! Also I don't own any songs I use from now on

Everybody says some form of agreement and I let each of them borrow one of my instruments, but not My lucky acoustic, bass, or electric.

"Why can't anybody use any of those?" Gazzy asks, gesturing to the instruments away from the ones we're using.

"I have a lucky instrument for each type that nobody gets to use of touch except me. Most are from my-my dad" My voice cracks on the word 'dad'

Gazzy starts to ask about my Dad, but Ella and Angel shush him. I can feel my unpenetratable mask start to fall into place as I lightly strum my guitar, getting ready to pick one for a song.

"She wants to sing Brick By Boring Brick. It's by Paramore, do you guys know how to play the song?" Angel asks, reading my thoughts.

After everybody agrees, we begin to play.

"She lives in a fairy tale

somewhere too far for us to

find

forgotten the taste and smell

of the world that she's left

behind

It's all about the exposure, the

lens. I told her

the angles were all wrong now

she's ripping wings off of

butterflies

with her feet on

the ground

and her head

in the clouds

well go get

your shovel

and we'll dig a deep hole

to bury the castle

bury the castle

well go get

your shovel

and we'll dig

a deep hole

to bury the castle

bury the castle

ba da

ba ba da

ba ba da

so one day

he found her

crying

coiled up

on the dirty

ground

her prince

finally came

to save her

and the rest

you can

figure out

but it was a

trick

and the clock

struck twelve

well make sure

to build

your house

brick by

boring brick

or the wolves

gonna blow it

down

with her feet

on the ground

and her head

in the clouds

well go get you shovel

and we'll dig a

deep hole

to bury the castle,

bury the castle

well go get you shovel

and we'll dig a

deep hole

to bury the castle,

bury the castle

well you built

up a world of

magic

because your real life

is tragic

yeah you

built up a

world of magic

if it's not real

you can't hold

it in your

hand

you can't feel

it with your

heart

and I won't

believe it

but if it's true

you can see it

in your eyes

oh even in the dark

and that's

where I want

to be

yeah

go get you shovel

and we'll dig a

deep hole

to bury the castle,

bury the castle

well go get you shovel

and we'll dig a

deep hole

to bury the castle,

bury the castle

ba da

ba ba da

da ba ba da (X2)" I finish with a strum on my guitar. (decided to put the whole song for once)

"You're gonna have to sing in choir tomorrow" Fang says from where he's leaning against the wall

"Hm" I mumble thoughtfully. "I guess I'll sing Concrete Angel" I feel my face shut down even more, if possible.

Angel looks sympathetic, knowing what I'm thinking about. I subconsciously pull down my sleeves, even though they're already long enough. Fang seems to notice. "What's up?" He asks

"Nothing" I say quickly, and Fang notices that I said it too quickly, and knows I am lying.

"You're lying, Max" He says quietly

My entire being begins to shut down. I can't talk about him yet."Somebody grab her!" Angel yells.

Fang dashes forward and grabs me just before I go into a flashback.

Erasers. They're surrounding me, so I let my body go into fight mode. The bell rings and they leap forwards. I spin a kick to the Eraser to my left and do an uppercut jab to the Eraser to the right. The one in front of me swipes his claws across my cheek, leaving long angry red lines that almost immediately start to gush blood. The Erasers to my left and right are now out for the count, so I turn on the Eraser in front of me. I aim a kick to the middle of its stomach, and while its trying to regain its breath, I kick the base of its spine and then it's over. The battle is won and I faint from blood loss.

I jerk and immediately try to worm my way away from Fang. "LEMME GO!" I yell

Fang lets go, sensing my distress. I stand up and almost fall, but Fang wraps his arm around my waist, holding me up. I panic, not knowing who it is, but I quickly realize that it's Fang. I push him off me and then I fall of my raised platform trying to walk. My head hits the hardwood floors with a crack and my vision fades to black.

I wake with a jerk and start to panic, but I see my family and the Walkers standing above me. I blink rapidly, trying to remember what had happened. Then it comes to me in a rush: the flashback, Fang catching me, the songs we played, and cracking my head on the floor. I touch my head gingerly, and to my surprise, I feel a lot of gauze wrapped around my head. I look at one of my hands, and there is an IV. God, I hate those things.

"We're gonna get some food if that's alright. Fang said he'll stay" Mom says. I nod, but it makes me extremely dizzy, so I stop. They leave and Fang looks at me thoughtfully. I prop myself up.

"Penny for your thoughts?" I ask

He smirks. "Never thought I'd see you in a dress"

I look down at myself and scowl. "Oh come on!" Fang plops down in the chair next to my bed.

"Hey Max?"

"Hm?" I mumble

"Close your eyes"

"No"

"Why?" Now Fang is staring at my lips.

"I did that once and-" I am cut off by him kissing me out of nowhere.

"Mmph" I say against his lips. He pulls away just as everybody walks back in.

A/N~ Here's your CHAPPIE! It took way too long to write, but I had stuff to do. It may be that I update every other day or just closer to 8:00 at night (my time. I'm in Chicago Time Zone, according to my phone) Guess what? My parents left me at home, they weren't here when I got home like 4 hours ago! :S So anyways, PLEASE REVIEW! I'll give you a feast of doughnuts~ my favorite food. My favorite type is salted caramel.
