Wouldn't You Like To Know 7

Max POV

So Nudge wants to go boy hunting for me. I don't know how the hell to do that! I get the general idea from the title, but I can't just walk up to a random guy and ask him out. That's weird! And the guy could be an ax murderer or criminal or something! Well, I'm not worried about that really because I could easily kick any full human's ass, but for a normal girl! (Which I am pretending to be for this. See what Fang is making me do!)

Nudge, Angel and I are going to a local café. Nudge thinks it's an ideal spot to get asked out. Basically, we just sit there and wait. Really boring.

"So, we need to find you a boy. He needs to be good enough for you, but still normal." Nudge surveyed the café, "Pick one." What? I can't! How do I do that? I mean there are a couple cute guys here (sort of cute), but I don't think they would just come up and ask me out-

Suddenly, a random cute boy from the café comes up to us. Nudge elbowed me in the ribs and I looked at her. She pointed to the boy subtly.

"Do you approve?" She whispered. I looked at him carefully. He looked fairly cute, but he wasn't hot. Like a certain missing person. I nodded and Nudge grinned evilly. The boy was only a little ways away from our table.

"Hi." He said when he got to our table. He was all nervous. Or, at least, that's what it looked like. It was kind of cute. I smiled. Rare for a stranger to get that out of me but, I want Fang back. I have to do things I wouldn't usually. This way of getting Fang back to normal is also part of his punishment for changing so drastically in the first place.

"Hi. I'm Max." I said politely. Something else that rarely happens with strangers. This boy was around my height it looked like. He had blondish brown hair and brown eyes.

"I'm Jake." He smiled back at me. "The guys over there thought I should come over and introduce myself. I wanted to anyway." He smiled awkwardly. "I was wondering if you would like to have lunch with me here tomorrow?"

That was way easier then I thought. So I said yes. He sat and we talked for a while, then Nudge, Angel and I left the café and went home. His Idiocy was home. Nick was still there. Fang was still gone. 'Nick' is way too bright (and I don't mean smart). It is really getting on my nerves. Only Angel and Nudge are that upbeat usually. Maybe Gazzy, occasionally. Iggy is more a relaxed happy. So basically, 'Nick' is as happy as a girl. This is another reason we need Fang back. He is much more masculine. Usually.

"So, Max. What time are you meeting Jake tomorrow?" Nudge asked me quietly. We didn't want IT to know yet. I have a special way for him to find out later.

"Noon, at the café." I said smugly with a pleased smile. 'Nick' is in for a huge surprise.

LINE BREAK

Fang POV

Max seems to be adjusting to my change now. Maybe she will even like me. The way I want. I am still trying to get used to it. The different clothes are annoying. And I have to talk A LOT more. I also have to smile a lot which I am not used to I usually reserve a real smile for someone special or a special moment. Usually, I only, truly smile when I'm with Max. That's still true to this day.

Max POV

Lunch was fun with Jake. He asked me out again for the next day. He asked me out on a movie date. Perfect. I've heard that's were most girls get there first kiss with a new boyfriend. It will be for me too. Or so Nudge says. She made me watch a chick-flick marathon. That was a main part of the romance movies. Kissing at the movies. That may be what I'm in for tomorrow. Here goes everything.

THE NEXT AFTERNOON

Max POV

Anne dropped me off at the theater. Jake was waiting outside the theater for me. He smiled when he saw me and waved. I returned the smile and walked up to him. He took my hand and we walked into the theater together. When we took our seats in front of the giant movie screen.

Halfway through the movie, Jake pulled the 'yawn-stretch-arm-around-girl' move. Usually, I would have said something witty, but I need this guy to help me get Fang back. So, I let it slide. I even snuggled into him a bit so he would think it worked.

A little while later, Jake turned to me. He bent over to me and kissed me. He was ok, I guess. I mean, he was acceptable for what I need him for. I sound so horrible. But, he was also looking at Nudge a lot so she could have him. It would definitely make her happy. Most likely it would make him happy too.

We kissed for the rest of the movie (which wasn't long) and then he walked me home. Then he left. I actually had fun on the date. I couldn't decide if I had a better date with Sam or Jake. I invited Jake to come over tomorrow. And he said yes.

"You did it! This will be easy." Nudge said after I told her how the date went. She was smiling proudly, like she was so happy I accomplished this and she didn't expect it. A little offensive, but I'll live.

"So, Jake is coming over tomorrow. You both know what to do?" I told the two younger girls. They both nodded, smiling giddily. I smiled at them, a triumphantly evil smile. Fang will be back very soon.
