Ch.11
Fang's eyes shot open. What did Nudge say? Kissing? Fang glanced over at Max and saw her cheeks flare up. He felt his own heat up a little, but he kept a – mostly - expressionless face. Well, this was awkward. So it was up to Iggy to save the day. Yeah, right.
"Awk-ward," Iggy sang in the famous tune. "I think I'm gonna go get some air." He practically ran out the door.
"Me too," the Gasman agreed. Angel followed soundlessly. It was just Max and Nudge now.
"Nudge, sweetie," Max began, "We weren't kissing. We were just talking about some stuff that's been bothering us, that's all." Nudge gazed up into her eyes. Then she looked at Fang.
"Uhm…" Nudge started, but Fang took the hint and held up his ands to say 'I won't listen' and walked away. The room was tiny, so the only place to go was outside.
With all the others.
What fun.
Fang closed the door behind him. Everyone was gathered in a loose circle, chatting. When they heard the door snap shut, they stopped talking and looked at him. Fang started walking in the other direction of the outdoor hallway, but Iggy called out to him.
"Hey," Iggy ran up to him and they turned a corner. "You may not know this, but I'm blind, so I'm inclined to ask you what's happening." He put his hands on his hips. "So?"
Fang glared at him.
"You know perfectly well what's happening." He said darkly. Iggy looked taken aback, but he pressed forward.
"Not really. When your only sources are a six year old, and eight year old, and a random comment from Nudge, you don't really know what's going on."
Fang breathed in.
"Nudge saw me and Max together in a tree, talking about stuff, and she thought we were about to kiss. That's all."
Iggy's eyes widened.
"That's ALL? That's major, dude!" Fang looked at him, confused.
"What's major?" Iggy tilted his head.
"Well, were you? About to kiss?" Fang thought about it, then decided not.
"No." Iggy's face fell, then lightened back up, obviously trying to hide his disappointment.
"Why do you care?" Fang asked sharply, eyebrows bunched together. Iggy looked down, then grinned.
"Thought I was gonna be a best man." Fang hit him on the head, then Max came outside with Nudge and told everyone to get ready to leave.
