Chapter 20
"soooo, How did it go??" Nudge squealed
I had put up with this pestering for ages, may as well tell them before Angel decides to sneak into my mind when im not looking (or, thinking… I guess)
"Fine, I will tell you guys what happened, But then you have to shut up ok?" I told them sternly
Nudge just nodded and sat there, with an eager look on her face, Ella managed to match this, and Angel smiled sweetly, like only she is capable of… like an Angel.
I sighed, I really didn't want to tell them anything, but they would find out eventually. They had waited for Fang and I to get home, before ambushing me in my own room.
"We went to the movies, I didn't want it to be serious or anything, and he let me pick the movie, so I picked Avatar, and we watched it, and came home, ok? There done" I said in a rush
"Max, lying is bad" Angel sung
"stop reading my mind" I snapped at her
She giggled and then said "tell them what really happened"
I replayed it in my mind, not caring if Angel saw it, I just had to come to grips with it.
We had been sitting in the movie theatre, and the movie was reaching its climax, then, the main characters kissed and at that exact moment, Fang slid his arm around my shoulders. I had looked at him and he looked straight back at me. Our eyes met, and then he kind of… leaned in and kissed me.
And it wasn't just a little kiss, we got really into it, really quickly.
Angel giggled AGAIN, and I found myself staring at the ground intently.
Nudge and Ella looked at each other, looked at Angel, and then at me, and exclaimed
"HE TOTALLY KISSED YOU!"
"yeah, um, so?" I said quietly
This is exactly what I didn't want happening, UGH.
"I like, totally knew you guys would end up together, its so cute!" Nudge gushed
"It's late, you guys need your rest and all" I told them
"fiiiine" they droned in chorus, but to my absolute horror (and enhanced, ENHANCED hearing) began giggling and talking about me and fang.
I sat there, on my bed for an hour,
Realization dawning on me
Fang kissed me
I mean, I was over the freakin' moon.
FANG KISSED ME.
I fell back onto my bed, I needed to get some sleep anyway
I stopped. A cold fear gripping my chest. 'I needed to get some sleep anyway'. Oh God. How could I forget, how could i?
"Max, you're freezing, are you all right?" Fang asked
"what? No, I'm fine" I answered "I don't feel cold at all"
"Are you sure?" Fang asked, putting his hand onto my cheek
"yeah, I'm fine"
Fang was going to find out.
Tomorrow either because of me or Iggy.
I guess it would be much easier on him If I broke it to them softly, but that didn't matter. How could I let Fang kiss me, or even go out on a date with him, when I was immortal and he isn't.
He would grow old, and die,
And here I would still be, 16 year old Maximum ride.
This wasn't going to end well, I just had that feeling deep down in my chest

Anyone ever played L4D? The next chapter relates to the tagline of the survival map "THE LAST STAND"
In a way (you don't need to have, I just like placing random little clues)
