A/N I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. I was busy and I still have writer's block. Here you go! Iggy's here! :)
Disclaimer: I only own the plot.
Max POV
It had been about two months since Fang and I had confessed our love for one another and we had been extremely happy since then. Everyone noticed. Nudge and Ella had asked me a ton of questions until I finally spilled the beans. They had squealed and jumped up and down with happiness. My mom hadn't interrogated me like them but I could tell that she knew and she was pleased. Fang and I said it almost casually around the house now so I'm sure she'd heard us.
Christmas break had finally arrived and it was time for me to meet Iggy. I sat in the passenger seat of my mom's red jeep and Fang sat in the backseat behind my mom. He was jittery. I reached my hand back and took his in my own. His gaze swiveled over to me and a small smile found its way to his lips. I smiled back and then turned my attention back to the road in front of us without taking my hand away from Fang's.
After a few minutes of riding, mom pulled up next to the curb of the pickup area at the airport. She got out of the car and leaned against its side as she waited for Iggy. I turned around to look at Fang and saw him staring out the window on the opposite side from him. I squeezed his hand.
"Are you nervous?" I asked. He looked at me and nodded. "It's okay, Fang. He's your best friend. He's not going to think any differently of you for being sent out here." I said and rubbed my thumb across the back of his hand.
"It's not that, it's…" He trailed off.
"Fang, what is it? You can tell me anything." I said and tugged his hand so he'd look at me.
"I just don't want you to not like him. Or him to not like you. You're the two most important people in my life besides my little sister, Angel. I couldn't stand it if you couldn't stand to be in the same room together." He said and I smiled at him.
"Fang, there's nothing to worry about. I'm sure we'll like each other. From what you've told me, Iggy seems like a funny and nice guy." I said and he nodded, doubt starting to slip away in his eyes.
I looked out my window to see a pale, tall, strawberry blonde guy walking up to my mom with a cheeky grin on his face. He had piercing blue eyes and a backpack slung over his shoulder.
"That's him," Fang said and got out of the car. I followed. He and Iggy exchanged a quick bro-hug and Iggy shook my mom's hand.
"Hi, I'm Iggy. You must be Max." He said and stuck out his hand for me to shake with a wide smile on his face. I smiled back and said a polite, "Nice to finally meet you." He nodded and we all got back into the car. Fang and Iggy talked in the back while my mom and I quietly listened. It was nice to meet someone that Fang trusted and loved like a brother.
"How's Angel?" Fang asked.
"She's doing good. Missing her big brother." Iggy stated and I could feel Fang's head drop in guilt. I turned and slipped my hand in his.
"Hey, don't feel bad. It's not your fault." I said and he looked up into my eyes. He nodded and gave me a small smile. I squeezed his hand and smiled back then felt Iggy's eyes on us.
"Am I missing something here?" Iggy asked gesturing to our locked fingers.
"Iggy, Max is my girlfriend." Fang stated simply and smiled in my direction. I blushed and his smile grew.
"Ah, I see. That would explain the hand holding and you glancing at her every so often. I thought it was just you who dug her and were too much of a wimp to ask her out." Iggy chuckled and Fang glared at him. I laughed.
"Okay, kids. We're here. I have to run a few errands today so I won't be back until this evening. Max, can you and Fang take care of everything until then?" I nodded and shut my door after getting out of the car. I waved as her car pulled out of the driveway.
"Follow me, Iggy." I waved over my shoulder to him and walked into the house. The extra guest bedroom was right next to Fang's so it was quite convenient. I led Iggy inside and he let out a low whistle.
"Nice," He said and I nodded. "If you need anything, you can ask Fang or I. I'll be downstairs finishing up some school work." I said.
"You weren't that nice to me when I arrived." Fang complained and I smirked.
"Yeah, well, Iggy wasn't a cocky troublemaker who pissed me off from the second we met." I countered and brushed passed him on the way out.
"Ouch," I heard Iggy say. Fang reached and grabbed my hand to pull me back.
"You really think I'm letting you escape after calling me that?" He said and I smirked again.
"Why Fang, whatever do you mean? I'm just a poor innocent little girl who has no idea what you're talking about." I batted my eyelashes up at him. He rolled his eyes.
"Drama queen," He leaned down and kissed me.
"Gross, dude, kiss her on your own time. Right now, help me unpack." Iggy said and shielded his eyes. I laughed and pulled away from Fang.
"Just for that," Fang pulled me up against his chest and bent so that he was holding me up, my back to the ground. His mouth crashed down on mine and he kissed me passionately.
"Ahhh! The horror! Make it stop! MAKE IT STOP!" Iggy cried in the background. Fang pulled away and chuckled before setting me on my feet. I smiled and turned to walk out the door. I swear to God that I felt Fang swat my butt as I left.
I was sitting at the table doing some English paper. The sound of footsteps coming down the stairs echoed throughout the house. I finished revising it and put down my pen, stretching.
"Hello, love." Fang said as he walked into the kitchen and over to the fridge. Iggy followed.
"Hey," I said and got up from my seat. I went and sat on the counter across from the fridge.
"Love? You two must be pretty serious." Iggy said and glanced at me and then Fang.
"We are," Fang said and came out of the fridge holding a bunch of ingredients. He set them on the counter next to me and came to stand in between my legs. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he smiled at me. "How's the homework coming?" He asked.
"I just finished." I declared and leaned my forehead against his chest. He pulled me to him so that my legs were circling his waist.
"Good," He rubbed small circles in my back. "Iggy thought it would be nice to cook you dinner for letting us stay here." Fang said and his chest vibrated with every word.
"I would protest but you know how I can't cook so…" I said. My voice muffled from being buried into his shirt. He chuckled.
"Yes, I know."
"Well, I see you got ingredients for spaghetti so I'll make that." Iggy said and scooped up all of the food. I pulled my head up from Fang's chest and rested my chin on his shoulder to watch as Iggy worked. His limbs moved as if it was instinct. He grabbed this and poured that and sprinkled a little of this. It was quite fascinating.
"You like him?" Fang murmured into my ear. I nodded and whispered a quiet, "Yes," into his ear. He smiled. "Great,"
I pulled away from his shoulder and stared into his eyes. "I love you,"
"I love you, too." He pecked my lips before letting me get off of the counter.
I walked over to all of my school stuff and shoved it in my back pack. I zipped it up and carried it into my room to dump it on my bed. Fang was sitting at the dining room table when I got back down. I was feeling really cuddly tonight so I sat on his lap. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised and I just snuggled into his neck. He wrapped an arm around me and pulled my feet up so that I was sitting across his lap with my upper body leaning on him.
"You tired?" He asked and I nodded, practically already asleep, comforted by Fang's warmth. My eyelids drooped and then I was asleep.
A/N Eh. Not terrible but not that bad. I hope you continue to enjoy this fanfiction! After I finish this one I have one all ready to post. I'm prewriting it. Testing the waters. I already have 5 of the chapters done. I won't tell you what it's about because I don't want someone to steal the idea but I think you'll like it. FlyOnMax, your review confused me…a lot. What? Just wondering…. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed and I'll try to update as much as possible!
