Chapter 10 (Not again)
I woke up the next morning to complete silence. Oh my god was that all a dream? For some reason it hurt to think that it was all a dream. At any rate I got up, showered and then slipped into some leggings and a red tank before putting my hair in a bun.
I walked out to the living room to find Fang watching Supernatural on Netflix. In the episode he was watching Sam died, so I had no idea what season he was on.
"Dam it you dipshit. How are you so stupid that you keep dying?" Fang says to the TV.
"Yeah, they're stupider than Iggy. Not even he's gotten himself killed." I say scaring him. "Then again you're the one with the death wish. You've almost died as much as they actually do, probably more."
"Ha, ha so funny Max." he says turning back to the TV.
"But you know it's so true." I say plopping down next to him.
"Yeah okay." He grumbles.
"Where is everyone?" I asked as Dean once again did the worst possible thing to survive.
"Your mom's, Iggy tried to sneak out to visit Ella and Nudge and Angel caught him and forced him to take them then Gazzy decided he wanted to take your car for a joy ride and went with them. And before you ask Angel snuck into your room and stole your keys." He informed. Wow full sentences and all useful… now to plan the death of my flock.
"They stole my keys?"
"Yep and I was told to stop you from killing them." He says.
"Will you?" I raise a brow, almost challenging him.
"Nope." I smile and walk into the kitchen.
"You want anything?" I yell.
"Yes, for these idiots to get new fully functional brains." I laugh.
"I meant food wise!"
"Sure," he says walking into the kitchen, "But how about we go get food, I still don't trust you with cooking."
I roll my eye before agreeing. We arrived at a nearby café that was within walking distance from my house. Once we sit down I decide it's time to start my complaining, just to bug him.
"God, I am so tired from that walk." I whine.
"Damn Max, you really let yourself go, the old Max would have killed the kids if they whined like that." Fang joked.
"Shut up." I say proceeding to stick my tongue out at him.
Fang then decided to grab my tongue between his thumb and pointer finger. I tried pulling away but to no avail. He held on.
"This is what you get for being a child." He taunts.
"Wawewer." I say.
"Sorry what's that? I didn't get that?"
I rolled my eyes at him and bite his fingers.
"Ow! What are you? Iggy?" he says shaking his hand.
"When was the last time you washed that hand?" I ask.
"Do you really want to know?" he asked, brow raised.
"Probably not."
That's when his phone rang.
"What?" he asked.
I was going to say something when my cell rang.
"Yello?" I answer.
"Hey Maxi-pad, just calling to let you know that the kids and I are gonna stay with your mother tonight." Iggy's voice came.
"Wait what? You steal my car and don't come back so I can kill you? What the hell Iggy!"
"Love you Max, have a nice day with Fang. Bye!" he then hung up and I knew Angel and Nudge were up to something.
See the Flock had been trying to push Fang and I together since that drunk kiss and the guys were helping. I really hate them.
"No, end of story… I know I left but I had to… That's not my responsibility Maya!" Fang argued.
Maya? Why would she be calling? I mean I know some of what Fang did while gone but it's Fang, even when we together he didn't tell me much. With me pushing him away since he got here I know I'm basically in the dark.
"I left you in charge because I thought you could handle it!... Because I have responsibility here…. Yes it came from a thirteen year old but it's a girl that is way ahead of us all… goodbye Maya."
By the time he hung up he looked way beyond pissed, like how I get when Iggy and Gazzy blow things up that they shouldn't.
"You okay?" I ask.
"Yeah, when I left I created a new team I was the leader at first but you and your clone share the take charge attitude so she took care of most of it. Well, when Angel came to get me I thought they'd be okay so I left and I told them to their faces what I was doing and they agreed. Now Maya's freaking out at me that I left."
"At least you told them in person." I grumbled.
"Seriously?" he glared.
"Sorry, reflex." I say with a weak, apologetic smile.
He rolled his eyes and we agreed that it wasn't a big deal. After we ate we flew back to the house (me not wanting to walk and him just not caring). When we landed in my yard we decided to go inside and watch movies. Well I decided to watch movies, Fang just sat on his laptop and rolled his eyes at my lame horror films.
"What are you doing?" I finally ask him.
"I'm sitting on the couch with my laptop."
"But what are you doing on your lap top?"
"Stuff."
"Fang, stop being so cryptic and answer the question for real."
"Or I could not."
Ii gave up being nice and took the laptop away from him and found his blog.
"Oh my god, you still do this?" I ask.
"Max, give me the computer."
"No way, I'm reading this." I laugh going through his posts.
"Max give it back." He says reaching for it.
I pull away and he comes closer trying to grab it. I get up, laptop in hand, and run as he chases me to my room. I close the door and lock it before he could get to me and start reading.
"Max, open the door, come on!" he screamed through the door.
"Not happening."
He started to curse on the other side of the door but I ignored it and went back to about a month after he left to start reading. It didn't interest me until about a year later though.
I miss them. I admit it I miss the flock. They worked well together and it made sense. I love my team and we are making progress but it's not the same. It is however, getting harder to look at Maya every day. It's like staring at Max and that hurts. I'm glad that I know she doesn't read this because I know she'd want to kill me right now for posting online how much I miss her and love her yet I don't go back, but I did and they were all gone. I wish I didn't care so much but I do. I love her. I'm so screwed.
They went on like that, most just mentioning me or the flock some didn't but the majority of them did. At the end he would sometimes do a P.S. to one of the Flock, or all of us. One was left to me…
P.S. Max if you're reading this I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.
It had been about two years ago that he wrote that and it had nothing to do with what he had been talking about. I honestly wasn't sure if I wanted to cry, punch him in the face, or kiss him. Well I was about to find out.
I opened my door and I guess Fang had given up at some point because he wasn't there. I heard the T.V. and went to the living room. I grabbed the remote and turned it off before standing in front of him.
"Max?" he said carefully standing up.
"I don't know what to say right now." I whispered.
"Are you mad or just upset, because your face is doing that weird thing where you look like you're going to rip my head off and cry all at the same time." His voice shook as he looked slightly afraid.
"I don't know."
"What do you know?"
"I don't know."
"Max…"
"How?" I ask, cutting him off. "After all of that… I went through so much pain. I waited six months to see if you'd come back and you didn't. True we weren't at the house but you didn't even check here. I know I was hoping you'd look for me, that you'd come back but I gave up. I don't know how I should feel about all of those stories and all that stuff about you loving me and regretting leaving when you didn't even check my mom's. I don't even know right now." I say, eyes brimming with tears.
"Max… I'm sorry."
I didn't answer. I couldn't. What was wrong with me? If Dylan had said anything like what Fang wrote, or anyone else for that matter, I wouldn't have cared. What the hell?
"Do you forgive me?" he finally asks.
"I don't know."
He steps a little closer. "I'm sorry Max."
"I know."
"I love you." He whispers.
I didn't say anything because I was crying. Not balling just barely crying.
"Max…" he started but I didn't let him finish, I was too busy kissing him.
Sorry it's been so long but I was distracted and had writers block but I made up for it I think. So there was Fax, yay. I will try to update all of my stories as much as possible but I don't know how well it will work with finals on the way but I will try. Hope you enjoyed the chapter. If you see any mistakes or have a suggestion of what should happen definitely let me know. Till next time.
