I must have been up all night. Thinking about, well, everything.
But seriously, when have I ever gotten enough sleep? I mean, come on, it's me, Maximum freaking Ride! I never get any sleep anyways. So, why was this time so much more important?
Good question. I'll tell you when I figure it out.
The alarm clock on my bedside table told me that it was about 6:30 am. Eesh, will I ever sleep like a normal human being? Heh, considering I'm not exactly human, I'll take that as a very strong no. Oh, well.
Sighing, I dragged myself out of my all too cozy bed and slipped some pants and a T-Shirt on. Everyone else was asleep, the girls in the room that I shared with them and the boys in the room next door.
Quietly, I slipped out into the hallway and made my way out into the back of the huge resort. Just in case you're wonderin' we were currently in Lake Havasu, Arizona. We'd fled from out old hotel after that little fiasco back at the other hotel. This new hotel that we found was right on the shore line of Lake Havasu and it was drop dead gorgeous. The resort had a small swing set for the kids that over looked the huge luminous ocean.
Kicking off my flip-flops and sitting down on one of the swings I slowly pushed back and forth, dragging my toes and making swirls in the cool dark yellow sand. I stared off into the distance, getting lost in the beauty, how the small dark waves crashed along the shore line, feeling the breezy mist of the sea water against my heated cheeks, the reddish brown rocks that bordered the water, the warm flamboyant sun peaking over top of them and creating a colorful array of beams of light.
The whole time I was thinking to myself, How the hell did I get myself into this mess?
Slowly, tears trickled down my cheeks without my permission. I let them pool in my eyes for a minute until everything was blurry and then I let them fall down my face, dripping down my chin and my neck. Jeez, I was acting like such a weenie, lately.
I sat there, listening to the waves for what felt like an eternity but was probably only about a minute considering the sun hadn't rised that much yet.
"Want a push?" A voice came from behind me.
I looked over my shoulder, my eyes widening in embarrassment as I quickly wiped away my tears. "Hi." I said to him weakly.
Fang gave me a half smile and came up from behind me, then slowly pushed me on the swing, "So -" he whispered in my ear when I would fall back for him to push me again, "- what're you doin' out here all alone?"
I gulped, "Couldn't sleep."
He snorted, "No, duh. Tell me somethin' I don't know, Max."
I gave him a long steady glare and his face softened. "Sorry," he said. "Maybe I should explain a little more to ya?" He came around the swing and pulled me off and then led me over to another part of the playground equipment, and then pulled me into the small playground tunnel. I ducked in after him and once I was in next to him he rapped his arms around me and tucked me under his chin. He breathed in deeply.
"What else is there for you to tell me?" I asked. "I mean, I've got my memory back. I remember everything."
He sighed, "I don't know, I feel like there's still something for me to tell you but I just don't know what."
I craned my neck around to look at him, "We're okay, right? The Flock and everyone else? Nothing bad happened while I was . . . gone, right?"
"Which time are you talking about?" He asked. "The time when you lost your memory or just recently?"
"Recently. Angels been acting weird lately around me. I wanna know what's up."
His eyes narrowed a little, his jaw tightening just the slightest bit, "Well . . ."
My eyebrows shot up, "Well . . . what?"
"Well, when you were taken Angle sorta . . . wanted to be Flock leader again."
Bam. I didn't see that one coming for me. "She's . . . she's still trying to get rid of me?"
"I wouldn't say get rid of - cuz you know that she still loves you like her mother -but she really wants to be in charge it seems." He shrugged. "The kid wants power she ain't gettin'."
I laughed drily. "Huh." I shook my head slightly.
There was a long moment of silence then Fang spoke, "But don't let that ruin things for you, Max. She wants you in her life - just like I want you."
His lips pressed up against my neck and I let out a slow gasp, not expecting him. My hands came up to cup his face and I turned around so I could bring his lips up to mine. He was sweet and warm. I could kiss him like this forever, and by the way Fang was pressing himself against me, I guess I could say he felt the same way.
We kissed for a few more minutes then we both broke away together, both of us panting. "I love you," Fang told me with affectionate eyes.
I smiled at him. "I love you too."
He sighed as we both entangled ourselves from each other, "Time to get back to our real life, eh?" he said as we went back up to our hotel room where chaos was erupting.
Okay, I thought that this was a pretty good chapter if I do say so myself. So I was searching for good locations and when I saw the pictures of Lake Havasu on Google I was like "OMG it's so pretty there." So, yeah. Check out some pictures online. It's like, soooo beautiful.
Anyway! Check out my other books, bla bla bla . . .!
