I'm not totally dissatisfied by this chapter. Thanks to everyone who reveiwed. Oh and I'm not gonna make romance big inthis story just so you know. Oh and this is before book three, so she doesn't know all this stuff yada, yada, yada... blah, blah, blah...
There is always a time when the human mind believes it is best to hit their head on something hard when faced with a difficult, life changing, or even a slightly insignificant choice. I was at that crossroads. So I took the road that looked the most appetizing.
I sighed and banged my head against the table, satisfied by the loud crunch and the jumping of people I heard. Only two people did not jump. Nohemi, who was on my right, and Marcus who was across from her. What can I say? They know me too well.
Fang jumped up and softly placed his hand on my back. I didn't care to move and ruin my beautiful position. I call it, "Nose Kissing Table" by Maximum Ride. (A/N: He he he...)
Now I bet all you fan girls are drooling in anticipation at what I could say next. I could say at that very moment I felt a sliver of heat work its way down my spine. I could say I enjoyed his touch. Or I could say it brought back all the memories and I knew at that moment I still loved him… NOT!!!
Ooo. I had you going there. You really believed that didn't you? Well I will tell you the truth this time. I felt anger. No, not the petty ordinary anger I usually feel on a daily basis. I felt extreme anger, maybe even hatred. I could hear Marcus inhale sharply.
You got that right, bro.
I reached up, grabbed Fang's arm, twisted it behind his back, and pulled. If I had done that to a human, their arm would have popped out of it's socket. But since Fang was unfortunately an Itex creation he didn't even wince. I think he got the message. I let him go and continued my face plant.
Oh metal table, you astound me with your silver beauty. I am amazed at how you could have easily broken my nose. But alas, you decided it was better for you to make an indent to accommodate my nose. And for this I am grateful…
Marcus chuckled. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Fang glare at him. I rolled my eyes.
Lighten up.
"What is so funny?" He spat.
Marcus ignored him and kept laughing. "Hey Nohemi. This reminds me of that time when that one guy accidentally bumped Max on the shoulder?"
They were both laughing now at the memory, and I was trying my hardest not to smile.
"Oh yeah," she giggled, "Max got so mad I thought her eyes were turning red. She smiled at that boy and I knew he was gonna have a heart attack."
They couldn't stop laughing at what happened next. I couldn't help but smile. I decked him. He was about six foot ten. Went down like a girl.
I sat up. "Shut up. I didn't hit him that hard."
"Uh-huh, sure."
I looked at Jeb. "Got any food?"
He shook his head. "Maximum, Maximum, of course we got food."
I stood up. "Good. Let's go get it."
He got up shaking his head.
"No Max, you and your friends stay here."
"But Jeb," I whined, "I don't like it here. It's cold and boring." I stuck my lip out like a child.
He chuckled and walked out the door. Guess whom he left me? Fang.
Oh, joy.
(Raises eyebrow) I don' t think that's a cliffie is it?
