Life With Max and Fang

Chapter 12

"How come there's always a happy ending?" I asked Jenny.

She sighed. "Like I said last time, it's a show! Max, quiet criticizing things."

I nodded, knowing that she was right. I had been staying at her house sine Fang and I… broke up two weeks and one days ago. I hadn't called him or anything because I knew that if I did I would start crying and end up with him again. Ella and Jenny agree that I just need to forget about him.

"So, you have work tomorrow?" She asked. "I'm off."

"Me too." I paused. "So is Fang."

"Max."

"What? He is."

Jenny sighed and stood up. "Come on!"

"What?"

"Come on, we're going out." She said, determinedly.

"Where?"

"To get you a guy. And, if I'm lucky, find Roger along the way. He owes me some money." She said.

"But I don't want a guy!"

She looked at me. "Oh. Is that why you broke up with Fang? I didn't know that you were 'on the other team'."

"I'm not! I meant that I don't want another guy. I want Fang!"

She sighed. "You're the one who left, remember?"

"Yeah but he was supposed to stop me!" I yelled.

"Please, you couldn't seriously think that Fang was going to stop you." She laughed a little. "You're both so damn stubborn. You would have probably let him leave too."

"Do we have to go?" I asked and she sighed.

"No but aren't you bored of just watching TV, eating, going to work, and then sleeping?" She asked.

"No, not at all."

Fang's POV

Up, down, up, down, up, down, up- "Working out all the time isn't going to bring her back."

I looked at the person who dare interrupt my work out time. "Go away Nudge."

"No." She crossed her arms. "I thought that you had a date tonight."

"I do." I said. "Now go away."

"You should get ready." She commented. "Unlike Max, other girls don't just let it slide when you look like a slob."

I grunted in reply, continuing my push ups. Down, up, down , up, down, up, down.

"You never listen." Nudge said. "Now wonder she left- Never mind."

Nudge ran to her room before I could say anything. Sighing, I got off the ground and headed to my bedroom. I had a date with Cara tonight. It's the third one! I know you're thinking hey isn't that Jonny's girlfriend? She is but I don't care. It's not like I'm going to keep dating her. It's just that she was the easiest to get at first. And plus, I just want sex. Really, really bad. Sure, I would much rather have Max but… as you know, that is no longer an option. It's been to freaking weeks sine I've had sex. Max and I normally do at least once a week, except this on time when she was sick but still! What does she want me to do? Wait forever? That is so not me! She left, not me. I've waited until this date to have sex, hoping that Max would come back but bitch didn't so I have to do something while I wait!

Max's POV

"See anything you like?" Jenny asked, pointing to a group of guys that walked by.

"No."

"Max."

"What?"

"At least try to have a good time." Jenny smiled at me. "Maybe you'll find a guy that will make Fang jealous. Ever think of that?"

I sighed. "Yeah but I don't want him to want me because he's jealous!"

We were at a burger place, eating at one of the outside tables, while watching guys go by. I still haven't seen anyone that can even come close to Fang! I want him so bad but Jenny says that it's best to just let him go. What does she know? She's still with a guy who steals from her. I miss Fang. I bet he's dying with out me.

Fang's POV

She moaned as we moved backwards, towards her bed. What? Did you except me to take her to my house? I don't care if Max is gone or not, that's our bed. I sat down and she straddled me. This felt so good. I've only been with Max. I mean sure, I've made out with like ten girls besides Max but Max was the only one I had ever slept with. Still, I couldn't get Max out of my mind. What if she's somewhere alone, having no place to stay but a cheap hotel, crying for me to come and get her? Nah. She'd never do that… Unless me being gone has finally made her creak and she's turned into a weak, crying, mess? Cara's hand slipped under my shirt, running her hands up and down my chest before tossing it somewhere in her room. She pulled out of our kiss and smiled at me.

"Show me your wings Fang." She instructed and I opened them so that they showed. She reached out and ran her finger down the right one. Max… She's the only one who has ever stroked my wing like that. I got up, causing Cara to fall. I grabbed my shirt, pulling it on.

"What's wrong Fang?" Cara asked but I just walked out the door. "Fang!"

I ignored her and walked out the door, to my car and got in. I drove around for a while, forgetting for about an hour where I live. I'm serious! I couldn't remember it at all. Eventually I found the apartment building and walked up to Max and- I mean my apartment.

Max's POV

I sipped the Pepsi, nervously. Jenny told me not to come here. That things were over between us but you know me, I don't listen to anybody! Finally, the door opened and Fang walked in. He walked into the kitchen, where I was sitting on the counter, not even noticing me. He grabbed a drink and then, for the first time in two weeks, looked at me. He stared at me for a moment.

"What do you want?" He asked, his voice have an edge of iciness in it.

I gulped. "T-To talk."

Fang looked me up and down, as if looking at me for the first time. "No."

"Fang-"

"Leave."

"No."

He raised an eyebrow. "Fine stay! See if I give a fuck.'

"Fang, I just want to-"

"To what? Yell at me some more?" Fang took a deep breath. "I'm not changing for you. If you don't like that fine. Leave."

I held my breath, thinking. "I want you. I don't care anymore about how you act."

"You want me?"

"Yes."

"Do you love me?"

I closed my eyes, looking deep inside of myself, forcing myself to get rid of all of my pride and fear. "These past two weeks, all I thought about was you. I couldn't sleep, eat, or even work with out wondering what you were doing, if you were sad.. It wasn't even if you were sad about me! I was just afraid that you were keeping it all in and having no one to tell it too. Is that love?"

Fang nodded slowly. "Yeah."

I jumped off the counter, setting my drink down. I walked over to him and hugged him. At first, Fang didn't hug back but then he did, hard, like he was never going to let me go. Eventually, he did though.

"I know that it was only two weeks but," Fang paused. "I missed you."

I smiled. "I missed you too."

Fang leaned down and kissed me, I responded, like always, by opening my mouth and wrapping my arms around his neck. Fang lifted up my legs and I wrapped them around his waist. Fang pulled back.

"Nudge?" He asked.

"I gave her forty dollars and told her to go somewhere and then spend the night at Mom's."

Fang nodded. "Bedroom?"

I smiled at Fang. "Horny Fang?"

Fang nodded, walking towards our room. God, I love the word our. He closed the door with his foot and then laid me down on our bed. Fang smiled at me, lying down next to me.

"How many?" I asked as Fang started to pull off my shirt.

"Hmmm?" He looked up at me.

"How many," I kissed his head, "girls did you have sex with?"

"None." Fang answered. "Almost with one tonight but started to think about you and couldn't do it."

I pulled his shirt off and started to run my fingers up and down his chest. "Do I know her?"

Fang kissed me. When he pulled back he said, "Yeah. Jonny's girlfriend Cara."

"Her?"

"Yeah." Fang kissed me again. "She was pissed when I left."

I moved Fang's hands from the bottom of my shirt. "You are never allowed to see her again. Understand?"

"Yes ma'am." Fang saluted me before going back to my shirt and taking it off. "I'm glad you're back."

"Yeah, I know. You sent me twenty text, tried to call me at work, and called my cell a hundred times, at least." I commented.

Fang shrugged. "You wouldn't talk to me. And you forgot all the messages I left on Jenny's answering machine, and Dr. Martinez's. I think that I called Ella five times."

I kissed Fang. "I love you."

Fang smiled. "I know."

Fang's POV

I woke up and opened my eyes, expecting to see Max lying there but instead, she was gone. What she ever even here? I jumped up and headed for the living room. Max was lying on the couch, now dressed in my shirt and a pair of shorts, watching TV. I sighed and walked back into the bedroom. I pulled on my jeans, incase Nudge had decided to come home, and walked back in there. I lay on top of her and she smiled at me.

"You're heavy." She complained.

I smiled at her. "So are you but I let you lay on me."

"Yeah but you're Fang! You don't feel pain." She joked.

I kissed her for about the thousandth time in the past seven hours. "I felt pain when you left me."

Max rolled her eyes. "Aw."

I got off of her and went to the kitchen, Max following, curiously. "All I'm doing is getting a drink."

"Oh."

"Hey bitch?"

"Yeah?"

"What could you possible be watching at four in the morning?" I asked, going over to the couch and grabbing the remote. I turned off the TV and walked to the bedroom, knowing that Max was following.

"Nothing really." Max said, lying down. "It was just that I couldn't sleep and didn't want to wake you up."

I took off my jeans and crawled into bed next to her. "I love you."

She smiled. "I love you too."

"You off tomorrow?" I asked.

" You mean today. And yes, I am." She ran a finger down my chest. "Are you?"

I shook my head. "No."

"What?"

"I changed jobs, remember honey?"

"Oh." She sighed. "What time do you go to work?"

"Six at night and work until three in the morning." I told her.

"Oh." Max smiled. "Then we can spend the day together."

"Yeah." I kissed her head. "Tired?"

She shrugged, snuggling against me. "Night Fang."

"Night bitch."

I woke up and looked at the clock. Ten. Hmm, Max didn't seem like she was getting up anytime soon so I gently removed her from my arms and laid her down. I kissed her head and got up. I got dressed and went into the kitchen to make Max breakfast. I hope eggs are okay…

The front door opened and Nudge walked in. The first words out of her mouth were, "Are you guys back together? Or did sluty come home with you and ruin it?"

"First off, her name is Cara and secondly, Max and my love life is none of your-"

"Shut up Fang." Max said, walking out of our bedroom. "Nudge, where's my change?"

Nudge looked at Max like she was crazy. "I spent all the money."

Max glared at her as she walked over to me. She sat on the counter, watching me. I smiled at her. "What Max?"

She shrugged. "Nothing."

"Fang! Are you making me food too?" Nudge asked, grabbing a soda.

I sighed. "I wasn't."

"Make her food Fang." Max ordered.

"Anything for you." I mumbled.

Nudge rolled her eyes. "Max?"

"Yeah?"

"Can I have forty dollars?" She asked sweetly.

"What do you think?"

"I can have sixty!"

"No wonder you're failing." Max commented.

Nudge glared at her. "I need some money."

"Why?"

Nudge shrugged. "Stuff."

"What stuff?"

"Important stuff."

"What kind of important stuff?" Max asked, clearly agitated.

"Wait, she's not about to say something about girl stuff is she?" I asked.

"No." Nudge stuck her tongue out at me. "I can buy that stuff on my own. I own somebody some money."

"Is that what you did with the last forty dollars I gave you?" Max sighed.

"No. I bought dinner too."

Max got off the counter. "Don't you have money from work?"

"About that-"

"She got fired." I interrupted.

"Why?"

"She hadn't been going for the past two weeks."

"Thanks for ratting on me Fang." Nudge mumbled.

"Thanks for having me make you food."

"You need to get another job." Max told her.

"Fine." She glared but then smiled. "Max, you mom wanted to know why I was staying over so I told her that you and Fang were having make up sex and that it would involve the whole house."

"You didn't." Max looked like she was about to kill Nudge.

"Yeah I did. She was so angry it was funny." Nudge smiled. "She had already gotten Iggy ready to ask you out."

I growled but Max put her hand on my arm in an attempt to calm me. I sighed and grabbed three plates and then put eggs on each. I handed Nudge hers and then carried Max and mine to the living room. I sat down on the couch, my favorite person in the world sat next to me and I handed her her plate. Max smiled at me and started eating.

Max's POV

Fang and I were lying on the couch, me lying on top of Fang. I had the remote and was flipping through channels, bored. How come there is never anything on TV on Saturdays? Fang was kissing my shoulder, biting here or there. I elbowed him in the chest, hoping that he would stop. He did but started to run his hands up and down my stomach. I sighed, letting him. I liked when he did stuff like this. And I really liked it right now because I had been with out him for two weeks.

"Can you guys go to your room or something?" Nudge asked from the chair. "Or give me forty dollars and I will-"

"No Nudge." I said, finally deciding on CNN. "Don't you have homework?"

"Yeah but I'll do it later." Nudge waved the question off. "Next week is my last week before winter vacation!"

"Do you still have to do those book reports over break?" I asked her.

"Yeah." She sighed.

"Wait, we never did those." Fang said.

"No we never did but I did." I told him. "I did yours for you each year and the one over summer break."

"Oh." Fang kissed my shoulder. "Thanks babe."

I rolled my eyes. "Hey Nudge?"

"Yeah?"

"How did your date with Kevin go?"

Nudge shrugged. "Alright but Demarkis still doesn't want me back."

"Oh. Did you break up with Kevin?"

"I was never his girlfriend." Nudge said. "It was just one date and I told him that it wasn't going to work out."

"Are you guys still friends?"

Nudge shrugged. "I'm still ordering him around if that's what you mean."

I sighed. "Nudge, not only were you using him but now you're making him feel like a-"

"Whatever you use Fang all the time!" Nudge countered. "You always had him do stuff for you in high school and even now."

"Yeah but he was my boyfriend and still is. I can do that."

Fang's hand grabbed the remote and changed it to ESPN. "Let me watch this bitch."

I rolled my eyes. "Fine."

Fang kissed my shoulder. "Thanks."

We all sat there for the next hour, switching through channels. I finally got up and went into the bedroom, Fang following. He closed the door behind him. I went to the closet before remembering that my clothes were in the bag in the living room. Fang seemed to get what I was thinking because he smiled and went into the living room, coming back with my bag. He sat it down on the bed and I walked over to it. I grabbed the stuff I needed and watched as Fang started to put my clothes were they went.

"I can do that." I offered.

"No." Fang answered. "Go take a shower."

I kissed his cheek before walking to the bathroom to do just that.

Fang's POV

I put Max's stuff where it belonged, making sure that everything was in the exact place it was two weeks ago. After I was done, I laid down on the bed, waiting for her. When she walked in, she laid down next to me.

"Hey Max?" I asked after we laid there for a few minutes.

"Yeah?"

"Never leave me again."

Max moved closer to me and laid her head on my chest, causing me to respond by wrapping my arms around her. she smiled and kissed my chest.

"Okay Fang." She agreed.

"Promise?"

"Promise."

"Good." I took a deep breath. "Since you can't leave, let's talk."

"About?"

"Why you left."

"I was mad." She said as if that was enough of an answer.

"So? I get mad and I don't leave you for two weeks."

Max sighed. "Fang we needed a break."

"That doesn't mean that you leave and don't call or anything! I was worried about you." I got angry. Did she think that I would just forget about how she left and everything would be okay?

"I'm sorry okay? I needed time to think."

I held my breath. "How do I know that you won't need time again? What happens if you do and you leave? Do you think that I will always wait on you?"

"Fang I know that I love you now." She reasoned.

"Yeah and when we were fifteen, you said that too. And I thought that you were sure until you said you weren't." I sighed. "Max, all I'm saying is that you're never sure of anything. Last night you could have told me anything and I would have let you come back to the apartment if it meant getting you back. But now that I have you back, I want to be sure."

"Fang, you're over thinking things."

I held her as close as possible and kissed the top of her head. "Maybe I am but I want to be sure."

Max looked up at me and I immediately felt bad for questioning her. "I love you Fang."

I sighed. "Max-"

"I love you so much." She leaned up and kissed me on the lips gently. "More than anything."

"Max-"

"And it hurts when you say that I don't love you."

I knew she was playing me but she was Max, she had done it all her life. She kissed me again and turned so that she was lying on top of me. She pulled back and smiled.

"Fang, let's go eat lunch. It's already three. You leave in three hours."

I sighed, standing and picking her up. "What do you want for lunch?'

Max sighed as I sat her down. She faced me, a smile of her face. "Whatever you want Fang."

I nodded. "You're on your own for dinner."

"I know." She told me, walking out of the bedroom, me following.

Max sat on the couch. "I'm coming to see you tonight."

I nodded. "Good. It's going to be a long night."

"I'll come at ten and leave at-"

"You leave at twelve and go straight home." I instructed.

"Why?"

I shrugged. In truth, I didn't want her out late. I know, she closes at one all the time but I can't stop that. But I can stop her from being out on nights when she's off. I took out my cell phone.

"I'm ordering pizza." I told her. "Tonight, you and Nudge can eat that or go out."

"Okay." Max agreed.

Nudge walked out of her bedroom. "I'm hungry."

"Pizza for lunch." I told her.

"Fine." Nudge walked over to the couch and sat down.

Max's POV

My cell went off just as Fang had finished ordering the pizza. I sighed, standing.

"Hello?" I asked, walking to the bedroom.

"Max?"

"Hey Mom." I closed the bedroom door.

"Is it true?"

"Is what true?"

"That you're back with that… thing?'

I took a deep breath. "His name is Fang and yes I am back with him."

"Max, he is clearly violent." She told me.

I rolled my eyes. "Why? Because he hurt your precious Iggy?"

"Max I'm just trying to-"

"Mom I don't care! I'm with Fang and I hate you and the rest of you who hate Fang and me being together! I'm tired of all of the shit! Just leave me, Fang, and Nudge alone!"

I hung up just as Fang walked in. He walked over to me and hugged me. I let him, hating myself for yelling at my mom. Fang kissed my head.

"We heard you yelling and I came to see if you were okay." Fang explained. "Who was on the phone? Your mom?"

"Yeah." I hugged him back. "Hey Fang?"

"Yeah?"

"Ever wonder what our the people around our apartment think?"

"What do you mean?"

"We're either having sex, yelling at each other, or yelling at other people. They have to hear most of it."

Fang chuckled. "I guess you're right. But are you okay?"

I sighed. "I guess."

"Good because my shows on." Fang let me go and grabbed me hand, walking back into the living room.
