Chapter 9–Jolliness, Shopping and Attempts
Max's POV
Is it morning already? It shouldn't be. I'm too comfortable. That tickles. What is that? I felt something on my neck, like, someone was breathing on it. I turned around and almost screamed. When I turned and then opened my eyes, Fang was no more than two inches away from my face. I jumped out of bed causing Fang to wake up. He looked up at me with worry in his eyes, and then blushed, realizing how close together we slept last night. I grabbed my clothes and went to the bathroom to change.
Fang's POV
I don't know what happened. I remember Max telling me that she loved me in her sleep, and then the next thing I know, Max was jumping out of bed. I had no idea what was wrong, that is, until I realized how close I was to where she was sleeping. She grabbed her clothes and went to the bathroom. I sat there for a few more minutes and then got up to change. Thank god we are going shopping today. I mean, I don't particularly like shopping, but I REALLY need new clothes.
I took off my pants that I used to sleep in and threw it into the basket in the room for the wash for Dr. M to do. I grabbed the shirt that I was wearing yesterday, since it was the least torn up, and was bringing it over my head when Max walked into the room. I got my shirt on and she was already half way out the door. I quickly put my pants on and then told her it was ok to come in.
"Sorry Fang. I forgot to knock." She was blushing so much at that point. I wanted her to blush even more though. I love it when she blushes. It makes her look so young and small. Like an innocent little girl who didn't grow up in a cage.
"At least I was wearing what I was wearing and not less." As if on cue, she blushed another 5 shades redder. I gave her a quick smile, but her head was down and she didn't see it. I have got to tell her that I love her back tonight. At least I know that she loves me back. I will have to gain all of my confidence today. I can do this; I hope...
Angel's POV
Oh, my, goodness!!! Fang is going to tell Max that he likes her!!! I have to tell Nudge!
"NUDGE!!! NUDGE!!! NUDGE!!!"
"WHAT?!?!?!!!!!!"
I was gasping for breath at this point, "you'll never...guess...what Fang...was just...thinking!"
"What was he thinking?"
"He is going to tell Max that he likes her!!!"
"Oh my god!!! No!"
"Yea. He is going to tell her later tonight."
"We soooo have to watch it. Or if not, at least listen."
"I know!"
Iggy's POV
All of the sudden, I hear Angel screaming on the top of her lungs. I was worried that there was something wrong so I hurried to their room. I was at the door when I heard them talking about Fang telling Max that he liked her. Finally!!! "You know you guys are way too loud, right?"
Both of them must have looked totally shocked that I was there. It is moments like these that I really wish that I could see. "Uh, you won't tell, right?"
"Of course I won't, I just want in."
Fang's POV
I am so happy today. Nothing could bring me down. I must have been smiling because all of the sudden, Max gave me this weird look. "Are you feeling okay?" she asked.
"Yea, why wouldn't I be?"
"You are showing...emotion."
"Is that I problem?"
"Not really. I can tell how you are feeling now, but why are you suddenly starting now?"
"I don't know. I guess that I am having a good day today."
She smiled, but then looked a little scared again. "You are talking more too. Are you sure that you are feeling okay?"
I laughed a little and then said, "Yes, im sure that I am fine."
Then mom yelled, "Breakfast is ready! Come down if you want to eat!"
We looked at each other, smiled, Max blushed, and then we started Making our way down stairs. I am having a pretty good day so far.
Gazzy's POV
Iggy told me the plan for listening to Max and Fang. Finally! I even knew that they liked each other. When mom called breakfast, I was the first one down and sitting at the table. Mom looked a little shocked when she saw me suddenly sitting at the table. She put down eggs, pancakes, hash browns, waffles, and cereal It looked all so good. I didn't know what to pick. So, I picked a little of everything! Everyone eventually made it down. Max and Fang were the last ones down though. Max looks like she was just blushing. I wonder what about. Oh well. I'm still hungry, I think that I will take more.
After all of us had at least one helping of food, mom made an announcement. "Ok guys. As soon as you are done eating, we will head to the mall to get you new clothes." Everyone smiled to show that they agreed. We all had way too much food stuffed in our mouths to say anything weather we wanted to or not.
Dr. M's POV
Wow. If I didn't know these kids already, I would have thought that they haven't eaten in years. I made the announcement of us going to the mall as soon as they were ready, and I got a round of smiles. As soon as they did finish, they just freshened up a bit and then we headed out to the mall.
Max's POV
I didn't want mom to have to pay for all of the clothes. We basically all needed new wardrobes. I wouldn't feel comfortable if she did that. It is enough that she has to pay to feed us all. As we were approaching the mall, I triple checked that I had my Max Ride card. I did. We decided in the car ride over that we would go youngest to oldest for clothes.
I sent mom away to do some errands that she wanted to get done. We obviously started with Angel. I let her get as much as she could carry. She was so excited about that and got enough that she would just be able to fit it into her closet. We then moved onto Nudge. She got the same amount as Angel if not more. She did make me buy this one outfit. It was a cute purple T-shirt and a skirt. Surprisingly, she didn't make me get a mini. Thank, god! I did like the outfit though, but I don't have to let her know that. We then moved on to Gaz. He was quick which I was happy about. His clothing theme was kind of skater boy-ish, but not to bad. I actually think that it make him look adorable. I didn't want to tell him that though. It might have mad him not get it, and I didn't want that to happen. Next was Iggy and Fang. They both got clothes at the same store. The styles that they got were very similar as well. Iggy's choices were just more, colorful. Then it was on to me. I got dragged into a couple of stores, but I was okay with it. I could get nicer clothes now because I don't have to worry about them getting ruined in battle. I am loving my new life more and more by the minute. After we finished with my basic clothes, Nudge gave the boys some cash that I had on me for them to go to the food court. She then dragged me to the dreaded, gulp, Victoria Secret. It was kind of awkward. Having an 11 year old and a 6 year old help me find bras and underwear. I felt like I couldn't do this on my own. But, then again, I can't.
When we finally finished, we met up again with mom and started heading home. When we got home, we all went upstairs to put our new clothes away. As I was heading up the stairs, Fang ran my me, and ran into our room. He then came back and stole all of my new clothes. I chased him up the stairs, but he took them two at the time. He did get there before me and I saw him on the bed, looking through my bags. I did see that he but my underwear near the closet, showing me that he didn't touch it. He found that nice outfit that Nudge made me get and held it up to himself. "How do you think I look?" he asked.
"Aw, you look so pretty!" I replied.
"I think that it would look so much better on you though. Can I see it on you?"
I blushed at that and then said, "Sure, just let me put my other stuff away first. Deal?"
He looked like he was deep in thought, though, I knew that he already knew the answer. "Deal."
We put the rest of our clothes away in silence. I went to the bathroom and changed. I hope he likes it.
Fang's POV
Ok, I'm going to do it. I sent Max to go wear that really hot outfit that Nudge made her get. I knew that she liked it though. Weather she admitted it or not, I knew.
Angel's POV
I sent a message to everyone that Fang was going to do it and to hurry up. As soon as we heard Max leave the bathroom, we all scrambled in there. Iggy said that there was a weak spot on the wall where it was really easy to hear what was going on in the other room. As soon as I saw that everyone was settled, I went over to their door and just like I hoped, it was open just a crack so that I was able to hear what was going on. This is going to be good.
Max's POV
When I came back into the room, Fang was sitting on the bed. I walked into the middle of the room and he just looked at me. He then told me to turn. I spun quickly and he told me that it was way too fast. So I went so slow just to see if it would annoy him. When I was turned back around, Fang was almost in the same position that I found him in this morning. Except now, he was at least 5 inches from my face. He was just staring into my eyes. I started to lean towards him, only 3 inches left, and then... BOOM!
I turned around and saw that Angel was on the floor right outside of our room. I went over to her and she started blushing. I then called out, "WHEREVER YOU ARE, COME OUT RIGHT! NOW!!!!" I heard shuffling in the bathroom next to our room, and the rest of the flock came out and held their heads down. I told them to look at me. All of them did, and then, I just shook my head and went outside. I need to fly.
Fang's POV
I was about to kiss Max! I was almost there and then she turned her head away. I thought that she was rejecting me, but then she opened the door and there was Angel. She was yelling and then she took off, probably to fly. I then waled out, looked at the rest of the flock and just said,
"Thanks guys, thanks a lot." I turned back to our room, and locked the door. I almost did it. But then the flock had to ruin it. I though that it might be good that they knew. I guess I was wrong.
