Hey guys. Thank you everyone who reviewed. I am soooo sorry guys. I realize now that the last chapter stunk soooo badly. Whoops!! Then! On top of that! I called Ella Bella! Uhh! This just shows how sick I am! Lol.
Sorry if it seemed like Max was a little harsh on Fang. I do agree that it was a little unnecessary to punch him, but its too late now... I will make it up to Fang though. Don't worry. ; ) lol. I'll stop blabbering now. Here is chapter 26!
I looked up at him, and him down at me, and we kissed. It was a sweet, make-up kiss. Fang then wiped away any tears that were still on my face and then we got up. We decided to walk back home. We walked hand-in-hand, and in complete silence. It wasn't one of those awkward silences, it was actually nice. When we had about a fifth of a mile left to go I suddenly remembered; ELLA IS COMING HOME TODAY!
Chapter 26–Excitement, Special Treatment, and Disappointment
Fang's POV
I don't know what has gotten into Max. She totally freaked out on me. I told her that I basically understood where she was coming from, which I did, but I wouldn't have freaked out that much, even with showing more emotion. Does she have her period or something? Ok, this is just getting odd. Let's think of something else shall we?
Oh my god that girl can punch. She didn't break any ribs or anything, but I am probably going to bruise. Well that doesn't sound gay at all...new subject...
Max then tensed up beside me and stopped walking. I looked over at her and excitement and happiness was glowing off of her face, and I could probably feel it a few miles away. She then turned to me, with the huge smile still on her face. She then said, "Ella is coming home today!"
I didn't even remember about Ella. Aw man! This could cut into my Fang-Max time! How about for now on we call it Fax time! Yea! I'm sounding really gay right now! Yea!
"Yep. Do you know what time she is coming home?" I asked.
She then went form happy and excited to worried and anxious. Is she bipolar now! "I don't know! She could be home by now and I just didn't know! Can we fly the rest of the way back?"
I then said, being such a good sport, "Sure. Come on. Let's go." Even though it hurt when I flew before because little miss PMS bipolar princess here punched me. That is why I walked most of the way!
We took off, hand-in-hand. And even though Max was really anxious, she didn't go super speed on me. Which is always good. We did get back to the house in about 2 minutes though. When we landed in the front of the house, Max stormed in, and I walked slowly behind. "MMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!"
Iggy then came over to me and pulled me to the couch. "Lift up your shirt." I did as I was told. I flinched when he touched where Max hit me. But after a minute, Iggy said, "No broken ribs or anything, but you either are already bruised or going to bruise soon."
I looked down and then said, "Already bruised Ig." Max and Mom walked in the room at that point. They both stopped walking when they saw my chest.
Mom immediately said, "I'll go get you some ice." She left the room, and then came back about 15 seconds later with this HUGE! bag of ice. She then said, "Keep it on you chest. If it gets too cold put it on for five minutes and then off five minutes; then repeat." She then left the room and dragged Iggy with her.
They were going up the stairs when I hear Max start to speak. She said, "Oh my god Fang! I didn't mean to hit you so hard. Are you okay?" She was still on the opposite side of the room. Too far away for my liking.
I then said, "I would be better if you came over here." She was still upset, but she had this smirk on her face as if she was planning something. I was sitting in the middle of the couch, and she sat near the arm of it. She then said, "Swing your legs up onto the couch and bring your head over here." I did as I was told. I kicked my shoes off, and then brought my feet up onto the couch. I thought that it would be very annoying if I kept my shirt on while I was "icing" so I got rid of that too. I then put my head on Max's lap. Max took the ice, and softly put it onto my chest. Once it was in place, she started playing with my hair. We weren't really talking too much at first. It felt really nice when she was playing with my hair. I closed my eyes and just relaxed. But then I heard someone coming and opened them up. Oh great.
Eventually someone had to come and ruin the moment. Of course it has to be Nudge! She came skipping down the steps towards the kitchen when she saw us. She then said, "Oh, my god! You guys look so cute together! Well, except for the ice pack. That kind of ruins the picture. But still--"
Then, Max and I at the same time said, "Shut up Nudge." I then added in, "Why don't you go shove some food in your mouth so that you cant speak? Hm?"
She then said, "Jeeze! Why are you guys getting all defensive? Hmpf!" and then stormed into the kitchen.
I closed my eyes and shook my head no once she left. Max was holding back a laugh. And she almost lost in keeping it back.
After we saw Nudge leave the kitchen with a cookie sticking out of her mouth and a whole bunch of food in her arms, we relaxed a bit more and started talking again. I asked, "So when is Ella coming home?"
Max said, "The bus is planning on being back at the school around 12. It's around 11:15 right now if you were wondering." But she frowned as she said this.
I then asked, "Why do you look upset about that?"
She sighed and then said, "Well, Mom said that we couldn't go. If we showed up at a school in the middle of the day in the middle of the week, it might look a little suspicious as if we weren't going to school. Which, obviously, we're not. Mom is worried that they will either force us to school, send her to jail for not sending us to school, or take all of us, including Ella, away for not being a good parent."
I then said, "Ooh. Well you can be the first one to say hi to her when she get's home."
She smiled a bit and then said, "Yeah. That was my plan."
Hey guys. That was chapter 26! Woo! My one of my friends at school told me that you usually plan for your story to be long, but it ends up being 15-25 chapters. So ha! Lol.
