Maxs POV: Chapter 14
I woke up to see Fang was resting his head on top of mine so I didn't move trying not to wake him. I could tell he was asleep because his breathing was slow and so was his heartbeat. I gently started to pull my head out from under his after a half hour of just sitting there. Once I got free his arm shot out and grabbed mine, "And where do you think you're going?" He said with a playful smile on his face.
"I'm going to take a shower," I said trying to pull away again, it didn't work, he's just so strong! "Mmmm, not right now you're not." He said while pulling me back into his arms. He nuzzled my neck and I breathed in his scent.
"Faaang! I have to take a shower!" I whined knowing I wouldn't get my way, but not wanting to back down at the same time. He laughed and pulled me even closer making sure I couldn't get away. Then I had an idea.
I completely relaxed my entire body knowing that he would think I'd given up on struggling. I was right and he started to loosen his grip just enough for me to snatch my clothes and dash to the bathroom door. But, as he was faster than me on foot he made it there first with a smug look on his face. I scowled and pushed past him into the bathroom and heard laughter from our room. I quickly undressed and saw that there was a radio in the bathroom and turned it on, listening as Natasha Bedingfields Unwritten blasted through the speakers.
I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned
I listened, and decided right away I liked this song. Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
As I listened I was just letting the hot water beat down on me for a second, loving the way it felt. Man I missed showers.
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
God how I wished this were true. I can't live my own life, speak what's on my mind (even thought the rest of the Flock would know anyways – Angel), or create my own destiny. All because I have to save the freakin' world. Oh, oh, oh I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way
That part did apply to me. I broke tradition because I wasn't evil like most Itex experiments and I was made to not make mistakes, but we did anyways. I decided to just listen to the rest, feeling a slight headache coming on. But it wasn't bad. Staring at the blank page before you Reaching for something in the distance Feel the rain on your skin Staring at the blank page before you Reaching for something in the distance Feel the rain on your skin Oh, yeah, yeah
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

I got out of the shower and dried off looking around for my clothes. Where were they- Fang! "Fang!" I shouted as loud as I could.
I heard laughing from behind the door and opened it up a little but and saw Fang sitting on top of my clothes. Oh he was going to get it. "Fang gimme my clothes!" I shouted again, he just crossed his arms and smirked. Ugh, I was going to have to do this the hard way. I closed the door and wrapped my towel around me making sure it was secure, and walked out. He smiled when he saw me come out and I saw he wasn't sitting on my clothes any more. Knowing Fang I probably would never find them, so instead I walked over to my drawer and saw he hid those too. Oh man, he was really gonna get it!
I turned around and saw him still sitting there with a smile on his face. I went ove to his drawers and pulled out a shirt and some boxers, this would have to do until I could beat the crap out of him and get him to tell me where the H-E-Double Hockey Sticks my clothes were. I walked back into the bathroom and changed. When I came back out I jumped on Fang and held him there, threatening to tickle him instead of beat him knowing how much he hates being tickeled. His eyes got wide as he tried to move and couldn't, I could be a lot stronger when I wanted to be.
"You have till the count of 5 to fork over my clothes," I said in a menacing yet playful voice. I could never be totally angry with him, I'll have to work on that. "1," I said pausing slightly in between. "2." "3." "4-"
"Ok! You win! I gave them to Iggy." I stared at him in shock and then heard Angels thoughts, No he didn't Max, he's just trying to get you off of him.
Thanks Angel, I thought back. "Now where did you really hide them?" He looked at me with a questioning look on his face and before I replied I heard Angel again. He hid them under the cabinet in the bathroom. I thought thanks again and she said no problem. I got up and dashed to the bathroom catching him off guard and took my clothes from under the cabinet, or at least the ones I was going to wear. Now check under the bed she said. I did and there they were. All of my clothes. I looked up and smirked, "Angel." I explained and saw his expression go from shock to anger to playful in like 3 seconds.
Fangs POV:
Once Max came out, dressed in her own clothes we went to go get breakfast. Iggy said he didn't feel like cooking so we went out instead to the waffle house. Once we sat down a waitress came up and took our orders. She stayed a little longer than she needed to and smile flirtatiously at me. I saw Max scowl at her and I put my arm around Max's shoulders and pulled her close, showing the possibly 16 year old girl that I was taken.
"Well," said Max once the waitress walked off, "Aren't you the ladies man." I smiled at her and all her tension melted away.
"I'm hungry." Guess who that was.
"I know Nudge we all are. We just have to wait for our food," replied Max. No one thought it was weird how much food we ate any more thanks to Angel. So the waitress had to have 2 other people come out and help her. One was a guy about the same age as the waitress who was flirting with me earlier and kept glancing over at Max. I felt her tense up beside as she noticed and I kissed her on the cheek and she relaxed a bit and smiled. The flock each had a shocked expression on their faces except Iggy who sat there whispering in Gazzy's ear asking what happened. When Gazzy told him he burst out laughing. We all started talking about where to go next. We didn't want to go back to the hotel right away and decided to go to the beach because everyone wanted to swim.
"Yay!" Shouted Angel once we left, having eaten three breakfast platters each. "We're going to the beach!"
"I want to go seashell hunting. And then we can play water tag and maybe fly around and play! But we can only do that if we can find a deserted stretch of beach where no one can get there unless they can fly! Aww man I hope we do! That way we can play regular tag also! Oh! And maybe we can- Hey where are you going?" Shouted Nudge as we all walked off hoping it would shut her up, which it did.
