AN: Heya! So first of all, thank you guys for reviewing on here and commenting on wattpad! Anyway, here's Chapter Nine…
Fang POV:
I ran out the hospital, everyone who had been waiting for me and Max to finish talking to the man gave me a weird look but I ignored them. As soon as I was outside of the hospital, I punched the wall. Some blood came out from my knuckles but I ignored it, it should be painful but I can't feel the pain anymore. Why did my past always come back to haunt me? And why couldn't I forget? Why did I have to remember every single detail so well? I felt bad for snapping at Max...well I didn't exactly snap at her but still...she didn't know what had happened to my dad. But that man… he… his name is James and he did things I know I won't ever be able to forget much less forgive. I can still remember everything so well. Ugh. I was starting to feel like maybe life would be okay here but then he comes and ruins it. I knew he was going to come back. But I also knew that Max deserved an explanation of why I had acted that way. I took a deep breath and started heading towards Max's hospital room. As I reached the door, I took another breath and opened the door. Everyone turned to look at me. "You okay man?" asks Iggy. No, I'm not.
"Yeah. Just wondering if I could talk to Max," I reply.
Iggy nods, "We'll wait outside," Iggy says and they all leave.
"So, how was your walk?" Max asks, looking at me.
"Good." Did I really want to tell her? "I've got to tell you something." Well no turning back now.
"Er okay… you know I'm always here for you, right?"
The corners of my mouth tilt upward. "Yeah and same to you." There's a moment of silence. "Anyway, I think I should tell you about that man."
Max looks at me. "Fang, you don't have to. I understand. It's hard."
"No, I want to. Remember when I said I had to attend a trial for my dad when I was six? Well, his face, the man who hit you with his car, was carved into my mind forever. After I became ten and my mom had told me everything...well later that year, I went to the prison after school and I told my mom that I was going to hang out with a friend. So, I went to the prison and asked to meet the people, who killed my dad. I saw that man and I learned his names was James. James Hower. I learned many things that day, I made him tell me everything and then I asked the people there if it was true. Everything he said had been true. He had been behind my dad's death. Yes, he involved other people but it was all his plan. I left the prison and a few days after he had been found trying to escape the prison and heading towards my house. The police had found him a street off where my house was. Then you remember a few days ago when I was all beat up? Well that was all a result of James. He had somehow gotten out of jail. And the thing is that I had called the police that day and so they told me they put his back in jail once again but somehow he had gotten out of jail again. Somehow he knew you and he hit you. And I know that it wasn't an accident. No matter how much it may have seemed like one," I took in a deep breath. "That's basically why I freaked out today. That man, he killed my father, stole my mom's happiness, and won't leave me alone." I didn't realize but I had been clenching my fists. I could feel my nails digging into my skin. I brought my eyes to Max. I knew she would probably hate me. After all who would want to be friends with someone like me? "It's okay if you don't want to be friends anymore."
Max looks at me. "What? Fang, we are all a little broken. You're my best friend, I'm not just gonna leave you alone here. We are going to get through life together, and the whole entire flock is here for you. It'll be okay."
I give her a real smile. "Yeah okay. Thanks. Best friends, always?"
Max smiles back. "Always."
