i do not own the maximum ride series all rights go to james patterson. AND THANK YOU to all the commenters and the readers for this story as a thank you gift I have given you wonderful people a long chapter
" OH. MY. GOD." I flinched at the frequency of the squeal "is that THE new Dylan Hall t-shirt, I like, so wanted to get one but they were sold out, like, OMG, where did you get it?"Lisa shrieked. Quickly changing my stance I smiled at her.
"Like my BFF Let me borrow hers, she got it at the last concert, and I was like, so jealous"I said in a nasally voice flipping my hair. I pursed my lips pretending to evaluate her while stealing a glance at Fang hoping he hadn't recognized me. However, he caught me looking at him and flashed his trademark smirk followed by a wink. I inwardly rolled my eyes I don't think I need to worry about these two fools.
" I would be so jealous of her too,OH MY GOD we think alike, we could be like twins! " Lisa exclaimed giggling. I let out a high pitched laugh
"Totally babe. Like, great minds think alike" God, my throat hurts how does she do this every day? I eyed the doors behind her so close to freedom yet so far, please just leave and take the dog with you I inwardly growled as Fang started to eye my chest.
Her shrieking brought me out of my thoughts "I just thought of like, THE. BEST. PLAN. EVER! my boyfriend here," she said as she patted his chest "said he didn't want to come for the backstage experience thing, and like, my daddy spent a lot of money so I could like meet Dylan and like get his autograph but I cant go alone, because I would like, look like a complete loser. You know what I mean right. so do you want to come?" she said as she flashed a disgustingly sweet smile at me.
As much as I didn't want to spend more time with her, I really couldn't let this opportunity go by. Think about the pro's; I don't have to be tortured by this crowd and I don't need to figure a way to sneak backstage. I just need to find the room where they store the fan mail get Nudge's letter and be gone before the performance starts. Wonderful, absolutely brilliant, and a time saver.
" OH MY GOD. Of course, I would like, love you to pieces if I could go with you" I said with a fake sugary tone as I hugged her
"Great" Lisa said as she hugged me back, she turned to Fang and demanded he go find us three a seat "Make sure it is one with a good view" she hollered to his back
She turned and strutted towards the backstage area flashing the two passes as she passed by the guards blocking the door. I followed behind her quickly analyzing the guards as I passed by. Looks like they have no major weapons. more like massive muscles. a piece of cake to take down.
I found myself in a blinding white hallway full of several doors. "Wonderful" I muttered to myself, how the hell am I suppose to find the room with the fan mail in it before getting booted out? Lisa stopped walking suddenly as I bumped into her back " Why did you stop walki-" I started to say annoyed.
She interrupted me and screamed "DYLAN" as she ran towards the figure in the distance, who turned around at the sound of his name. The bodyguards surrounded him in a matter of seconds and blocked Lisa who attempted to jump on him. She kept screaming his name as she violently attempted to break free from the guards grasps.
The whole situation was quite entertaining. I was bit on my lip hard trying not to laugh at Lisa. I approached her and Dylan, stopping in front of them right when he told the guards to put her down but not release their grasps on her.
" Hey there, thank you for being my dedicated fan and as part of the backstage pass you can take a picture with me. " He said flashing her the same cheesy smile that was on my t-shirt. Help! I can't see! his teeth are too bright.. noooo I am slowly melting awayyyy "of course, I don't let just anyone take their picture with me, only if I think you are worth it" he said as he winked at the both of us. I couldn't help but snort, and I thought Fang was arrogant, this bonehead just took it to a whole new level.
" Oh, Dylan I am so worth it" she said dreamily as she batted her eyelashes and smiled weirdly. "You don't even know how much, but I can give you a preview." Don't you already have that guy who is saving us seats to show the preview to?
" And your beautiful friend can take a picture with me too " he said as he smiled at me ignoring her statement.I didn't bother replying instead my eyes followed a young man carry a big bag of letters and packages past us and into the door that was next to the one marked restrooms.
I observed the door. It didn't look like it required any keys or any password punch code key. Of all the doors, the most convenient one to break is the one they pick to store letters. Well then again they are letters not gold. I smirked the job should be a piece of cake. now to get rid of the unwanted company, they have served their purpose.
" Umm Hello aren't you coming with us?" Dylan said as I faced him, my attention back at the present situation, he had an annoyed expression as he turned and walked with Lisa following him.
" Hey Lisa" I called out "I have to go to the restroom so like, I will catch up to you later. Don't wait up babe."She ignored my comment and kept walking. I turned around and quickly walked into the restroom. After waiting for five minutes I slightly opened the door and poked my head into the hallway. Looking both right and left I squeezed through the gap and gently closed the restroom door, wincing as it made a barely audible creak.
I faced the door I saw the young man enter and lifted the edge of my shirt up. Wrapping it around my hand I used it as a barrier between my hand and the doorknob to prevent fingerprints. I squeezed through the gap and left the door open a crack so the light could filter in.
Bags. Bags as far as the eye could see. Honestly what do these girls see in him? How am I suppose to find Nudge's?Well you aren't M for nothing, no point standing around and gawking at the mess. I reached into the pocket and brought out the envelope that had my ticket close to my face. I squinted trying to discern what color green it was. Stuffing it back in , I ran my hands through my hair Lets get started. Unceremoniously dumping the content of the first bag I shifted through the colorful pile of letters and packages.
Timeskip
By the time I had opened the third bag it was evident this would take longer than I had hoped for it to have. How is this freaking color so popular? As a matter of fact how is this guy popular? I swear if I have to open another green letter to have glitter and pink handwriting in it I will go crazy. There has go to an easier solution. I scanned all the letters I opened. Judging by the way Nudge talks the letter should be nearly two inches thick. Probably the same size as the file she mixed it up with . She doesn't seem like a complete idiot to mix up the the size of the letter and the files.I picked up the closest letter, the date was yesterday same thing with the package on the ground. Idiot, how did you miss such a crucial detail! the whole bag was from yesterday, meaning I was on the wrong side I need to start from the other side.
So I walked over to the bags leaning against the wall on the opposite side and paused. She mentioned she sent the letter four days ago... knowing the postal system here it may be in the second bag. I grabbed the bag and pulled it open, and emptied it. A flash of green caught my eye, Gotcha, the gold among the brass. As I reached down to pick it up the door opened wider.
I looked up and found myself face to face with the man you dropped off the last bag of mail. Oh shit!
" Who are you? What are you doi-" He started to say as I quickly grabbed the letter and did a roundhouse kick square to his face. He crumpled to the floor and I jumped over him into the hallway. Two of the guards heard the commotion and started to come towards this area. I stepped back into the room and closed the door behind me. I looked around no window. No ventilation. The only way out is the only way in. I picked up the closest empty mail sack.
Stripping down the guard to the briefs. placed his body into the bag as far as it would go, leaving room for the head and arms to stick out. He can get himself out when he come around. Quickly pulling on the uniform and slipping Nudge's letter inside, I stepped out into the hallway and closed the door behind me. I saw the guards approaching as I headed towards them with my head down.
"Hey you" one of the guards said as he approached me, " We heard some noise coming from the mail going on?" He eyed me suspiciously
" It must have been me you heard. you know how boring it gets back here man." I said shooting him a grin "I mean you can go check if you want to, I have to go get the rest of the bags from the truck" I said looking at them and down at my watch.
" Why are you wearing makeup if you are only delivering the letters?" the other guard asked.
I shrugged "I was told to dress up because I was suppose to attend the Dylan Hall concert but my stupid boss didn't mention how I would be attending."
The other guard smiled " Yeah I get you. I was assigned as a guard. I thought I would be a body guard at first to Dylan but then they assigned me to these stupid hallways. Haven't seen another person in here except for this lug" he smacked his partner
" Yeah I got to get back to delivering letters. But have fun." I said as I sauntered off towards what I assumed was the back exit.
I finally found myself out side away from any guards and sprinted while shedding off the uniform. I held on to it until I reached my car. I have to find a useful place to dispose this so the police don't get the DNA off of it. I threw the clothes into the backseat and placed the envelope in the pocket behind the drivers seat. I quickly pulled out of the parking lot and sped down the road towards my place.

I delivered the letter to a tearful Nudge who promised to payback the favor and gave me a paycheck. On that happy note I got on the bus Monday morning, However my smile was short lived when I heard Lisa shrieking. Did she figure out who I was?
"LIKE OMG! can you believe it! Over the weekend I like convinced Dylan that he should come to our school and he like, totally agreed with here is the biggest news. HE STARTS TODAYY!AAAHHHH! I could only silently groan at my fate. Fang is already someone to watch out for now I had a another fellow to be careful of. My sanctuary, the carefully crafted life I created at school it would all go down the drain once either of the two figured out who I was. Like I said the universe likes to watch me squirm because once I got off the bus I spotted a neon green scarf similar to the envelope I was requested to get. I narrowed my eyes pushing up my glasses. When I saw the person who donned it I froze. Its gone. Its done. Bye bye M. Rest in peace. WHY ME?
Thank you for reading and dont forget to comment :)
