I just got back from a competition at Disney in Florida. Our school band competed. P.S. We got the top grade we can and we won a Silver trophy. :3 I'm so proud of our band!
"Max..." Ella said, trying to regain herself, "What the hell are you doing here?!"
"Well.. You see.. I... I was..."
"Meddling like the little bitch you are! I was waiting to tell him you piece of shit!"
I felt tears burn my eyes.. It's not like I meant to.
"I can't take it back! And it's not my fault! You haven't talked to me in a month! How was I to know you didn't tell him?!"
Ella looked so hurt and ashamed by those words. She dropped her head and stared at her shoes and mumbled, "Get out..."
"Wha-?" I said, not hearing.
"I said. GET OUT!" She screeched the last two words and I hastily took off.
"When did you turn into this little satanic bitch?! Tell me that!" I said storming off.
Fang had been waiting for me in the car. He had watched the whole fiasco play out. As I got in the car he gave me a strange look I didn't recognize. Almost pained and humored. As soon as we got back to the house he fell over into hysterics.
"I don't see how this situation is at all funny." I said glaring outside the passenger window.
Fang was still laughing.
"Okay, what is it?" I grumbled.
"So I'm guessing the family reunion didn't go well." He chuckled.
"How is this funny?! Besides it wasn't truly 'family' it was two!" I yelled.
"Sorry, I just... I over heard Ella and Nudge talking the other day about how you were taking the baby if Ella didn't take care of the baby. That whole fiasco kind of proved you'd be a terrible parent."
"Oh, and you'd be so much better." I responded.
"Now I didn't say that." He said, rolling his eyes.
"Just take me home." I muttered, beyond the level of pissed.
We sat in silence the rest of the way. I felt tested and tired. I kept thinking of the person Fang used to be and how he acted. I couldn't trust him to help take care of the kid if I wanted to. He practically poisoned Sam once... Although Sam wasn't all that trustworthy it still kind of felt wrong. Maybe it was deserved though. I did go on two dates. But it was obvious what had been going on with the cheerleader had been going on for a pretty long time... But Sam would never cheat on me... Would he? Then there was Fang, I had known him for so long. Since we were practically ten. He had never acted so crazy as he did when Sam was around. His jealousy is practically terrifying.
"Were here." Fang stated.
"Great." I breathed, thinking so much about him that I had gotten a little afraid.
He turned his face toward mine silently expecting a kiss. Without looking at him, I opened the door and walked out. As I began to open the door he rolled down my window and said, "Whats wrong?"
I didn't turn around and just went in, flinching at the slight bitterness of his tone.
I ran up to my room and lied down on my bed, facing the fact I was out of people to turn to. My sister is gone, Nudge won't talk to me, Fang is gone, Gazzy and Angel are stressed enough, and there was no way I was turning to Sam. Then again I had Iggy. I could call him if I needed to. I sat there and thought about the position I was in and how I felt. I needed to call him.
After two rings he picked up.
"Iggy?" I tried.
"Huh?" He sounded out of breath, "Who is this?"
"Max."
"Max, hey! Are you okay? You sound upset."
"No, I'm not okay. I don't know what to do. My sister hates me-."
"Now that's not true."
"She said it. And I'm pretty sure she meant it. Not to mention Nudge is mad at me.
"She's mad at everyone." Iggy sounded beyond upset.
"I have no one I feel like I can trust. I've lost trust in Fang and I don't know what to think. Please help me."
"You can trust me... Now tell me why you can't trust Fang?"
"I just don't know what to think about him anymore. He was mean to Sam and me while we were dating, nice to me while we are dating. I just don't know what to think. If Ella doesn't take care of the baby I will have to and I can't trust him not to do his terrible jealousy explosions if I do have to take care of the child."
"Max, calm down. Fang only did that to protect you."
"And imagine what will happen if he did that again."
"Max, he won't. There is no one who knows him better then I... Okay, maybe you. But it'll be okay. I know he won't do it again."
"Thanks Igs... I'm glad I can always turn to you."
There was a distant sound in Iggy's voice when he said, "Yeah... Me too."
He hung up with a click and I just kind of stared at the phone, confused at what just happened.
Don't judge me if my 'p's aren't there. The key isn't working well lately.
Two more things, first of all, I apologize this is very short.
Secondly: I'm thinking about making a blog (practically about this story) on Tumblr, where there are posts from Fang's point of view about whats going on. And different sections where there are posts from Ella. Let me know what you guys think!
