Max POV:

The next morning at breakfast there was a tense kind of feeling around the table. At first, I thoguht it had something to do with the fact that we were leaving today, but it didn't. Fang wasn't sitting at the table with us. Instead he was in the waiting room like the lone wolf he was.

"What's wrong with him?" I ask as I sit down next to Nudge. Everybody's eyes snapped to Fang and I could've swore I saw him shrink into a little dark ball.

"Are you alright, Max?" Mom was coming over with a plate of bacon. This place keeps amazing me.

"Yeah. Why?"

"Well, only because I heard that you and Fang were doing a little something last night and it ended with you in a horrible state. How's your-" She motioned to one of her breasts. Oh my-!

"Mom, I'm fine! Really, it was an accident."

"Mm-hmm." She wasn't convinced. At all. "I want to talk to you after breakfast. And don't try to leave before then." That wasn't a good sign. Now I had a bad feeling about this. What was Mom going to talk about?

"Oooooooh. Max and Fang were gettin' it.' Gazzy chimed.

"Giggidy giggidy." Then Iggy mimicked Quagmire from Family Guy. This day is just having a beautiful start, right?

"Max, were you and Fang really trying to "do it"?"I turned to Nudge in shock.

"No sweetie! No! It was an accident!"

Or was it?

I just ignore Angel's thought. But I realzied that besides Ella, who was with Mom, there was only one person at the table that didn't say a word. And I was really glad. I glance over at Dylan and see his eyes were on the table. Thank goodness he was saying anything. I take a piece of bacon start to eat. Allow me to sum up the rest of breakfast in two words. Awkward and annoying. Nobody was talking, so I all I could really hear was everyone else's chewing. And everyone was either throwing glances at either me or Fang. So, yeah, it was bad.

After I put my plate in the sink, I go back to find Mom. She in the x-ray room with a little purple box.

"Hey Mom. What did you want to talk about?" She looks at me with that scary mom look I see on movies where the kid does something REALLY stupid and the Mom gets serious. Or something like that.

"Max, I know that you and Fang are growing teenagers and you're learning more about your bodies. Many are good and, well, some are bad." Now she sounds like that Epiduo commercial. "But, Max, I know I wasn't there for you until a year ago, and I know that Fang and the Flock was there for the rest. They know you. Just about everything about you. And you and Fang are getting close."

"Mom, really there's nothing between me and Fang like that. I promise, I'm using abstinence. Don't worry."

"I know you're smart, sweetie. But you're still a female teenager. You're going to experiment with your sexuality."

"Mom!"

"I can't control your urges, but I can control what happens after them." The purple box I mentioned earlier turned out to be a box of condoms.

"Mom! We're not going to be doing that!" She only shook her head.

"I don't know that, Max. It's not that I don't trust you, but you ARE a teenager. All I can say is "Be safe." Oh my freakin gosh! I never thought the first time I'd ever hold a box of condoms would be now. Me and Fang are not going to that anytime soon. Why is that so hard to believe?

"Mom, I don't need these. Fang's-"

"A teenage boy and he's going to more horny than you. Just be safe." Alright, I was blushing so hard that I thoguht I would just pass out right here. In this spot. With these condoms. Wait! Eww!

"Mom, I really don't need these." I place the box on the bed and put on a serious face. "Really. There's no need to worry." I start to walk to the door. "But thanks for being a mom. You're doing a great job." Then I just leave her. Ohhhhhhh! Mom really thoguht that Fang and I were going to have sex! What! We're not even going to do that! Oh man. Please help me great bird in the sky. Did I not mention some time ago that I can't even keep a goldfish alive? Why would I screw myself or the Flock over like that?

I walk down the hall and get back to the front. Fang was still on the couch looking like a ball of darkness. Second attempt at ninja walk, starting...now! I take my first step and he doesn't move. So far so good. I take another small step. Fang was still motionless. One more step and I realized that this was taking waaaaay too long, so I started walking normally. Sheesh, I couldn't be a ninja. When I stood over him I saw his dark eyes on the floor. I kiss his cheek.

"Hey." He looks up and smiles. Yaaaay!

"What's up?" Fang turns on his back, so I really was looking down at his face.

"Well, I couldn't help but notice that you seperated yourself from everyone. Did Mom get you with the sex talk too?" He nodded. "So, I'm guessing she gave you a box too, right?'

"Right. Look at this." Fang pulled the box from his jacket. I just looked.

"What am I supposed to be looking at? It's a box of condoms." Was he so surprised to be holding condoms too?

"Yeah, but look." He pointed to the box. "Trojan extra large. Key word extra. Dr. Matinez must be well aware of what I'm packing in my jeans." Okay, so it took a few seconds before the wheels in my brain started to turn. Wha-!

"Fang!" Did you know that Fang had a goofy horny smile? I didn't until now.

"She just wants to keep her daughter safe. Can never be too much of that." The words don't come to mind. Instead, I get another round of intense blushing. "I love you, Max." I take a few steps back.

"Fang." I manage to straighten myself out. "We won't need these.'

"I know."

"But when we're older and life isn't that hectic I'm positive we will." I come back over and kiss his lips. "Okay?"

"Alright." I back away again and go back down the hall. That conversation had me so off that I hardly noticed Dylan until I was near my room. Something was off about him. Wait, of course something's off. I got the sex talk anf so did Fang. He's just like the rest of the Flock right now. Max and Fang are horny, and we should be aware. Nice. But now, I've got to pack. Back to worrying about the mission ahead.

Fang POV:

"Trojan extra. Thanks Dr. M." I smile a little, but really I wasn't planning on using these things anytime soon. I'm fifteen and "on the run". How will that help any of us? I sit up and throw the condoms on the other side of the couch. Now what to do with the rest of my free time?

"Fang." Damn. I look back only to see Dylan. Damn. Damn. Damn. Damn. Damn. Why the hell was here right now?

"What?" I ask sharply. He comes over and looks down at me. Notice that he looks down on me, but I'm sitting down and he's standing up. I'm not shorter than him. Just clearing that up.

"I know about the condoms and "the talk". What were you and Max doing?"

"Whatever goes on between Max and I is none of your buisness." He looks at my eyes.

"But, you two-"

"Whatever happens between Max and I is none of your buisness. What part of that don't you understand?" He sat on the nearest couch arm. Either he took a really hard hit to the head or he was taking drugs, but whatever came over Dylan that made him think sitting on that couch arm was okay was just wrong.

"Fang, are you and Max really-"

"Allow to me just tell you this. Max and I are not going to have sex anytime soon. Alright, do you understand? If you do, go." This BASTARD has the nerve to reach over me and pick up the condom box.

"Extra large. Hmmm." That only called this up.

"Yeah. Jealous?" He shook his head.

"Not at all. In fact, I think that you don't need these. If anything, they might slip right off. Don't you think?' I take a swing at him and miss. He just made fun of my manhood! Is he serious?

"Wait! How would you know that what my dick looks like? Have you seen me when I'm changing? Sexy, right?' Thank goodnes the Flock wasn't here to see me say such dirty things. Again he shakes his head and puts the box the couch.

Dylan leans in so close that I think "This guy is gay!" and step back, but he only stops a good distance away.

"Oh please Fang. You and I both know that I'm the bigger one."

"Bitch, you wish!" He moved to fast for my punch.

"Bye Fang." I grit my teeth. That dick! And not that one.

Max POV:

I pack my stuff and give everyone else tha word. Luckily, the whole Fang and Max sex thing was over.

"Meet me in the front everybody." I get to the front and find Fang sitting on the couch with a mean look on hs face. More worse than his normal one. "What's wrong with you?" Fang shakes his head.

"Nothing. Ready?"

"Yeah." By then, Mom, Ella, and the Flock were here. Here is another hit of good-byes. The worst part.

"Bye Mom." I give her a hug and feel something poke me. 'Mom, not with the condoms again." I won't need them, really.' I push them back and huig Ella.

"I'm gonna miss you." We say. Jinx! I get up and go outside after the good byes are done. Then, I spread my wings and fly. This was a good time. Got the Flock out and starting the search before noon. Now's the time for Serah. Whereever she is.

That's all this time. Was this good? Let me know in a reveiw! Oh, I'm adding a random question now.

If you were Max and you walked in on Dylan and Fang having that kind of conversation what would you do or say?

I'm curious! I'll try to update soon. Thanks everyone!
