Okay, I told you a couple hours didn't I? Well here it is!

You guys don't like cliffs, huh?

Max

Iggy pulled up into my house with Gazzy a couple minutes later, and I climbed in.

"To Fang's house then?" he asked. I shook my head but then realized he couldn't see.

"I highly doubt he's there. We'll check the gym first." I said. He nodded and sped off toward the gym.

"Mind telling me exactly what happened?" Iggy asked.

I looked from him to Gazzy, and then said, "Fang told me he loved me," I whispered, looking down.

"And you did…?" Gazzy inquired. I looked at him, an apology in my eyes.

"I ran,"

Iggy hissed and said, "Are you intent on destroying Fang? He's been in love with you for ages, and when he finally admit it, and don't even pretend like you don't love him back, you run away?"

"I'm sorry! I was…confused. And I need to make it better,"

He and Gazzy shut up and we pulled up into the gym. I got out of the car and ran inside, looking around. The gym was practically empty.

I went back outside to where Gazzy and Iggy were waiting.

"He's not here," I said.

Gazzy's eyebrows furrowed.

"Then where can he be?" he asked.

I leaned against the car and thought back to all the time I had spent with Fang, to his different moods and what he revealed about himself. To the romance books…

"I think I know where he is," I said,

We got back into the car and raced toward him.

He jumped out of the car and ran towards the lake, and looked around. No one was there. I was about to turn away, disappointed, when I saw a mess of oddly familiar dark hair poke of from behind a tree.

Hesitantly, I walked towards it, to see Fang sitting there, his head in his hands.

I stayed there watching for a moment, but I must have made a noise because his head suddenly snapped up to stare at me.

And then he looked away, as if the sight of me hurt his eyes.

"Fang, I-," I started, but he cut me off.

"Max, you need to leave."

I looked at him blankly for a second, willing him to explain.

He sighed, "Look, Max. I don't want to hurt you, and I know that I'm just going to make you uncomfortable, so let's just…leave each other alone,"

I just kept looking at him, not moving from my spot.

He sighed again, knowing I was way too stubborn to actually listen.

"Max, I really mean-,"

Before he could finish his sentence, I swooped down and met his lips with mine for a second.

He looked stunned for a second, his dark eyes searching my own, when he smiled the most brilliant smile I had ever seen on anyone's face.

I collapsed onto his lap, pulling his face towards mine, kissing him fervently before pulling away again.

"Catch my drift?" I said, and he smirked.

I laughed and leaned against his chest, staring out into the waters.

We watched the sun go down together, lighting our world with a warm orange glow.
