Alright guys! I decided to write another chapter tonight because I was too excited to wait till Sunday, plus I love you guys and the reviews I got. FAX FAX FAX!
Fang's POV
After my little feud with Sam, I was too mad to go back to the party and socialize. I left Sam laying on the ground then walked furiously back to my truck. As I turned my truck on, I glanced up and saw Sam walking back to the group. I gripped my hands on the wheel and threw my truck into reverse, getting as far away as possible before I hurt the guy bad.
When I got home I checked to make sure my mom wasn't there, and luckily, she wasn't. I went to the kitchen to get a drink when I saw a note on the fridge that said
Going out to eat with Val, Gazzy, and Angel tonight. Be home late tonight, don't worry to much. xxx
I silently thanked the lord, I didn't want my mom bombarding me with questions while I tried to blow off steam. I grabbed the milk out of the fridge and took a few swigs from the gallon. Then I went up to my room and laid on my bed, trying to clear my head from all the questions coming up. But I couldn't stop them
I know it didn't seem like what Sam said bothered me, well yea it probably did show that it bother me given that I slammed him on the ground, but that's beside the point. The point is, I can't stop thinking about what he said to me. He asked if I was afraid I was going to lose or something... And it's not like I am scared I am going to lose. Because Max isn't just a prize. She is much more than that... She's the love of my life... And the fact that Sam thinks of her like that makes me sick to my stomach. But what makes my stomach churn even more is the fact that I could lose Max.
I could lose Max if I said the wrong thing and freaked her out. She might not feel the same... I could lose Max by her thinking I'm a jerk that I am trying to keep her and Sam apart. She doesn't like Sam like that though... Does she?
That's when I knew what I had to do. I got up off of my bed and put my shoes on, then checked my phone. I had three missed calls from Iggy and eleven from Max.
Oh no... I thought, putting my hand to my face, Now Max is probably mad at me for not answering... Or maybe she is upset because she thinks she did something. Maybe she thinks I'm mad at her.
I looked at the time and it was already almost midnight. Hoping that Max was already home, I ran out of the house and jumped in my truck, then started heading for Max's house.
Max's POV
Sam returned from his truck looking white as a ghost. I looked around for the fifth time, hoping to find Fang but I didn't see him anywhere. Then I looked toward Fang's truck and it was gone.
There was an emptiness in my chest that I tried to ignore, but I couldn't shake it. I can't believe he left without a goodbye or anything... I looked at Sam again, realizing he was standing farther away than he usually does.
Wait a second... Did Fang say something to Sam? Did Sam say something to Fang? Was Fang mad for some reason because Sam asked me to dance? He can't honestly think that I like Sam like that... But wait... Why would Fang be jealous about Sam?
My head started to reel as questions flew through my mind. The bonfire started to fade away and I became less focused on the conversations going on around me. I walked away from the fire because it was getting to hot, but also to call Fang. I called him eleven times and he still didn't answer. I became to get frustrated, wondering what was going on. I went up to Iggy very quietly, telling him I was ready to leave. He argued at first but then saw that I was frustrated and upset and told me he would see me at home later and that he planned to go to Ella's house after. And that was perfectly fine with me... I told Nudge that I wasn't feeling well and she said that she wasn't either and wanted to go home. I was so relieved that she wasn't staying the night because I wanted to be alone.
"Really Max, it's okay. I'll get Tyler to drive me home." She said with a shy smile on her face and I winked at her.
I said my goodbyes to everyone, but skipped Sam. I went straight to the truck and got in, ready to be home.
When I got home I went to my room and flopped down on my comfy bed. I didn't realize how tired I was... I got under the covers in my bed and tried to get comfortable. But that wasn't going to happen. I then realized I was still in my clothes from the bonfire. I groaned and got up out of bed and slipped on my favorite pajama pants and a white t-shirt.
I went to the mirror in my room and but my hair in a big messy bun on the top of my head. Right when I was taking my earrings off I heard a thud. I paused, confused and stood still, seeing if it would happen again. My mom was out with Fangs mom, Gazzy and Angel so I know they weren't home, but I knew Iggy wasn't home either.
The noise thudded again, making me jump. It sounded like it was coming from my window...
I walked over to my window, taking very quiet steps and looked out into the darkness. I jumped whenever I saw a black figure lurking on the roof outside of my window, and just when I was about to scream Fang's face came into my view.
I yanked my window open dramatically and he crawled through, stepping in front of me with a big grin on his face.
"How the hell did you get on my roof Fang?! You scared the crap outta me! Why are you here?! I called you like twenty times and you wouldn't answer! Why did you leave so early?!" I said, bombarding him with questions that ran through my mind.
"Hey hey hey, no need to get angry. Just thought I'd drop by for a little bit." He said smirking and sticking his hands into his pockets.
"Why did you leave the bonfire so early? What happened with Sam? He went somewhere, then you went somewhere, then he came back and looked white as a ghost and you just left without telling anyone bye!" I said, bunching my eyebrows up and poking him in the chest.
"I just didn't want to be around all the people. And nothing happened with Sam. It was just a coincidence." He replied quickly pressing his lips in a tight line.
I suddenly got very angry that Fang was lying to me. Then a great idea popped into my mind...
"Okay well you should probably go now. I have to get back downstairs..." I said, stepping away from Fang and looking towards the door then back at him.
Fang's eyes squinted at me and he took his hands out of his pockets, folding them across his chest, "Why do you need to get back downstairs...?"
"I invited Sam over to watch a movie and I just came upstairs to get... Comfy." I said trying not to smile at my lie, and made a poker face. And by his reaction... He bought it.
"Are you fucking kidding me Max? What the hell is wrong with you! What is going through your mind!" He said with gritted teeth and started to walk toward me with tightened fists and smoke coming from his ears.
"AHAAA! I knew there was something going on between you and Sam! That's it. Fess up." I said crossing my arms and smirking.
His face was priceless. He started to stutter but then gave up on his attempt to lie.
"It's nothing... It's just that I don't want Sam being around you too much.. He is a selfish ass hole who only cares about himself and I don't want you to get hurt. That's all." He said looking at his feet and stepping closer to me.
"No no no Fang, I do not like Sam like that. He is just my friend, nothing more. When he asked me to dance I felt bad so I just did it to get it over with... But I have a question... Why does it matter to you that Sam is an ass and him getting close to me?" I asked looking at his chest, unable to look him in the eyes.
"Because I care about you Max." He said, as if that was the easiest question in the world.
"I just don't understand... You used to hate me... But lately things have been different with you... Why don't you hate me anymore?" I said looking at him square in the face.
"I have never hated you Max." He replied, looking right back at me and holding his hand out, "May I have this dance?"
My stomach dropped and my heart began to pound. What the heck was going on? I laughed as I felt my face turned red, "But there's no music-" I started but was cut off when he pulled out his phone and played 'Give It All We Got Tonight' by George Strait.
He held out his hand again, and I took it. The music played around us as he twirled me around, making me laugh out loud. He pulled me into his chest and we danced slowly. I rested my head on his shoulder while he put his chin on the top of my head. I felt so comfortable with him.. It felt like I belonged there, in his arms as he rocked me back and forth, gripping my lower back with his hand, holding my close.
He pushed me away and twirled me again, taking me by surprise, but then picked me up to where my face was equal with his. I held my arms around his neck and leaned in as he did. He pulled me closer, if possible and all I could focus on was his lips. He closed the space between our lips, barely brushing his against mine when a loud slam made us jump apart.
ALRIGHTY YOU GUYS! Thats it for that chapter! Hmmm... Maybe if I get a bunch of reviews I will post another surprise chapter?(: How does that sound?!
