Disclaimer: I haven't been doing these so I hope I don't get in trouble but I seriously doubt I will, aaaanyways, I don't own anything I'm merely fan, thus FANfiction.

Max POV

"Max, get up!" Nudge yelled for the fifth time. It was Monday morning, time for school.

"No.." I murmered turning over.

"Come on Max you only have like twenty minutes before we have to leave! Fang and Iggy are already here to walk with us. You're the last one up. I mean, it's going to be so fun! It's my first year of high school! It's your second year but it'll still be fun and-"

"Ohmygosh Nudge shut up." I said crossly, sitting up.

"Yay you're up!" she said, "Now get dressed."

She left and I got ready, putting on a pair of dark blue ripped skinny jeans and a black baggy Paramore shirt.

Nudge walked back in, took one look at me and said, "No."

"Come on, Nudge. I look fine." I said.

"No. At least let me pick the shirt." she pleaded, using bambi eyes.

"Fine." I said grudgingly.

She looked through my closet and threw me a tank top and a shirt. It was one of the outfits her and Ella picked out for me. It was a white tank top with a flowy low cut black top over it. Actually, seeing as I was expecting pink frills, it wasn't so bad. I pulled it on and Nudge smiled.

"Now for the hair and make up." Nudge said grinning.

"I can do my own." I said. I don't generally wear a lot of make up, but sometimes a little mascara and eyeliner.

"I won't do a lot." she said.

"Fine." I agreed, mostly because we were running out of time and I knew she'd break me down eventually.

She lead me into the bathroom and told me to close my eyes. Five minutes later she told me to open them. She had applied light purple eyeshadow, mascara, and a little lip gloss. For my hair, she'd brushed it straight and let it be. She worked fast and did a surprisingly good job.

"Thanks, Nudge." I said.

She grinned and launched into another rant about how cool high school was going to be.

We walked downstairs and into the living room, seeing as I'd woken up too late for breakfast. The others were all sitting around already ready. Iggy was wearing jeans and a red and white striped shirt. Fang was of course wearing his all black jeans and a t-shirt. Nudge and Ella both had jean skirts and brand name t-shirts on. Gazzy was wearing jeans and a T-shirt with a bomb on it, and Angel had an adorable pink dress on.

"Let's get going guys." said Iggy, standing up. We had to drop Gazzy and Angel off at the elementary school and then walk to the high school. I couldn't wait to get my license so I could drive.

We started out walking and dropped Angel and Gazzy off.

"Bye guys!" said Angel happily. She skipped off pulling Gazzy with her.

Soon we reached the Dreaded Root of all Evil... I mean school. As you may have noticed, I don't like school. The teachers, the home work, the other kids, I dislike all of it. But maybe, just maybe, it will be different this time. At least I knew Fang, Iggy, Sam, and Dylan who were all in my year.

I felt someone squeeze my hand then let go. I looked up and saw it was Fang. He gave me a reassuring half smile as we walked in the building.

I pulled out my schedule and looked at it. I had every class except Science with Fang, and had the other guys in most of my classes.

First off, was first period intermediate French. Fang and I took seats at the back of the classroom right before the bell rang and the teacher, Ms. Collins, started drabbling about her 'expectations for her students'. All I can say is she better not 'expect' more from me then showing up.

Finally, the bell rang and we went through a similar routine for second period math. This time Sam was with us as well. Then was history, where the wonderful teacher sat Iggy directly behind me and I had to endure an hour of being poked repeatedly. And lastly before lunch was creative writing, which wasn't so bad.

I bought lunch and sat down at a table with Fang, Iggy, Dylan, Nudge, Ella, and another girl I didn't know. Apparently Sam was sitting with the football jocks.

"Nudge, Ella?" I asked, perplexed. "Why are you guys here? Aren't you freshman?"

"Yup." said Ella, "But the school's so small they don't do lunch times by grade."

"Oh, cool." I said smiling.

"Hi, I'm Claire." said the short blond girl at our table.

"Oooh, Claire." I said raising my eyebrows at Iggy, remembering the mall trip. "I'm Max." I smiled and she grinned back.

"So, you and Iggy have a thing, eh?" I asked, purely to mess with Iggy. Him and I have that kind of friendship: always messing with eachother. It worked. He turned bright red and glared at me.

She laughed, patted his cheek and said, "He wishes." I decided then that I liked her.

I laughed and Iggy pouted. "Just kidding." she said and hugged him. He hugged her back and mouthed 'revenge' to me, over her head.

"Hey, Chris!" he called to a guy that was passing our table.

The guy, Chris, turned and said, "Yeah Iggy?"

"My friend Max here wants to ask you out, but she's too shy." he said gesturing to me.

"No!" I said quickly, "He's delusional, didn't take his meds today. So, run along now." Chris left looking very confused.

"Iggy!" I said angrily. He just laughed and high fived Fang.

"Traitor." I muttered to Fang.

Fang just chuckled and said, "It was funny. Chris actually looked excited there for a second."

"Shut up." I said glaring. But my glare wavered and soon I laughed too.

My next class was science, where Iggy succeeded in blowing up his book. And the sad thing? We weren't even using any chemicals, it was biology.

Then was woodshop which was pretty cool. And lastly, gym, where since it was the first day, we did nothing but listen to the teacher talk.

Then, finally, my first day of school at Glenley Woods Tower, was complete. I burst through the front doors of the school with Fang, Iggy, Nudge, and Ella at my heels.

"Freedom!" Iggy yelled over dramatically. Fang rolled his eyes and puched Iggy in the shoulder.

"How dare you lay a hand on me, my dear brother?" Iggy said in a mochingly outraged voice. "That's it. I'm leaving and taking these two with me." he grabbed Ella and Nudge, who were giggling madly, tucked one under each arm, and ran ahead of Fang and I.

"That boy has got issues." I said, shaking my head.

"Come on, Max," said Fang, "We all know you're the one with the issues."

"At least I'm not emo." I said, knocking my shoulder into his.

"For the last time," he began.

"I know, I know," I immitated his deep voice, " 'Just because I wear black and am quiet does not make me emo.' "

He stared at me blankly. "Was that voice supposed to me, or a dying walrus?" he said.

"Shut up." I said, knocking my shoulder into his. "It sounded just like you."

"All I can say is, don't try to get a job doing impressions." he said.

I glared at him. He smirked. "Very intimidating." he said dryly.

Suddenly, he stopped and stuck his arm out, blocking me too.

"Fang?" I said curiously, looking at him.

He getured curtly towards the three people crossing the street about twenty feet in front of us. It was Carter, and his two freakishly large friends.

Once they were out of sight I said, "We didn't have to wait for them to go. I'm not gonna skirt around them like-"

"Max" Fang said, talking to me like I was a five year old. "We're just going to stay far, far away from them, ok?"

"If you honestly think he's-"

"I do." Fang said, cutting me off. "Just promise you'll stay away from him?"

"Whatever floats your boat." I said.

He gave me a look. "I promise." I said, sighing. What was with him? It's not like I was going to walk up to Carter and start talking to him.

A few minutes later we reached our houses, seeing as the others had gotten Gazzy and Angel. He followed me into mine as I'd expected him to. We saw Iggy, Ella, and Nudge in the front room. We headed up the stairs to my room, when Angel came barreling past, followed by Gazzy.

"Ugh." I said plopping down on my bed. "I'm so tired."

Fang layed down and I put my head on his stomach so we formed a T. "Maybe if you went to bed earlier then two a.m. you'd wouldn't be." he teased, all thoughts of Carter forgotten.

"How do you know when I go to sleep?" I asked indignantly.

"Well, what time did you go to sleep?" he said.

"...two." I mumbled.

"See, I know you." he said smugly.

"Yeah, whatever." I said, closing my eyes as he idly played with my hair.

"Guys!" yelled Nudge running into my room.

"What?" I asked, sitting up.

"Iggy got invited to a party on Friday and he gets to bring whoever he wants and of course he's bringing us. So, we're going to go, and yes, you two WILL go. It's at his friend Adam's house and it's going to be so cool, especially considering I'm only a freshman and it's mostly a sophomore and junior party, but anyways Iggy told me to ask you two, but I'm telling you because I really, really want you to go." she said in all one breath. That girl has excellent lung capacity.

"Um..." I said, "There's a party on Friday you want us to go too, with you and Ella and Iggy?" I asked, clarifying.

"Yes." she said happily.

"Uh..."

"Oh please Max? Please, please, please." she unleashed the bambi eyes and I found myself nodding.

"I guess." I said.

"Yay! Thanks, Max!" she squealed and left.

"Do I get a say in this?" said Fang.

"Nope. If I have to go, you have to go." I said, laying back down.

"Fine." he said, "But only 'cuz you asked so nicely." he added sarcastically.

"Shut it, emo." I said.

"Didn't we already have this conversation? I. Am. Not. Emo." he said, pronouncing each word slowly.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say."

Suddenly, he was on top of me, pinning me down. "Am not." he murmered.

I felt my breath quicken as the atmosphere changed and slowly, slowly he leaned closer and closer, until our lips met. At that second, everthing shorted out. I couldn't think, couldn't feel, couldn't taste anything but Fang. I pulled him closer, deepening the kiss, running my fingers through his hair. His arms snaked around my waist holding me against him. I pulled back with a gasp, needing air. I felt my eyes widen as I processed what had happened. His dark eyes stared back into mine, a look of wonder in them.

"Fang...what...what are," I couldn't get my words out right.

He sat up, pulling. me up with him. Still he said nothing, just kept staring at me.

"I...what..." I couldn't think straight for two reasons. One, I had just freaking kissed my best friend. And two, I could still feel where he'd kissed me and I kept thinking of how I wanted him to kiss me again.

"Well," he said slowly, looking at me shyly, "I've been wanting to do that for a long time."

"You have?" I said, surprised.

He nodded and opened his mouth to say something else, just as Gazzy came running into the room.

"Guys!" he yelled excitedly, "Come see what we made!" and with that he grabbed both of our hands and dragged us out of the room.

A/N and they kiss!:D yay fax! And don't kill me, I had to make someone interrupt them because at the party in the next chapter, some stuff is gonna go down. So review please! Tell me what you think. And please help me with ideas for what happens at the party. Should Lissa or Jessica or someone be all over Fang? Should Carter and his creepiness be there and mess with Max? Should Dylan be all icky and Dylany? I love your suggestions and opionins:)
