HERE IT IS! THE LONG AWAITED EXPLANATION FROM FANG!!
OK…he's kind of OOC but give me some credit guys! Lol hope u like it!
NO POV
After Lucy stormed out we all went quiet.
"I- I'm sorry Fang." Said Iggy, averting Fang's eyes.
"I know. Me too." They walked forward and did that whole 1 handed hug thing that guys do.
"Happy 4th of July guys." Muttered Gazzy and they all laughed halfheartedly.
"Well, I'm gonna go make a big lunch seeing as we all missed breakfast. Wanna come help Angel?" offered Iggy and she nodded and they left the room.
Gazzy muttered something about football and headed outside calling for the kids. Nudge started cleaning up the endless mess that came with having all these kids in one house and that left Fang, Max, and Jay all averting each others eyes awkwardly.
"Look," started Jay apologetically, "It was my fault and I'm-"
"You're sorry. We know Jay. Why don't you go play football with the others ok?" said Max not looking at him. He nodded and then walked out side without another word. Max and Fang stood there uncomfortably looking anywhere but at each other.
"Max-"
"No Fang." Max interrupted. "That was ridiculous. Just-." She sighed and looked up at him meeting his dark eyes for a second before looking out the window. "Go." She said
"What?" Fang was confused.
"Go. Go after her. Talk to her. Just-. Go." She looked back up at Fang and nodded. He nodded back and turned to walk upstairs. When he had reached them, he put one foot on the stair case and then turned. He walked slowly back to Max and stood less then a foot away from her putting his face close to hers. She looked into his eyes startled and was about to take a step back when he leaned forward and kissed her forehead lightly.
"Thank you Max." he whispered and then he was gone, running up the stairs toward Lucy's room leaving Max shocked and fighting back tears. She felt so confused, and appalled, and hopeful... and frightened. She rubbed her temples in frustration and then walked slowly outside to watch the kids play football.
LUCY POV
I was still looking for answers when I heard a voice from below me.
"Can I come up?"
My heart skipped a beat as I looked over the edge of the roof to see Fang sticking his head out my window and looking up at me.
"Sure." I said trying to keep my cool but the word came out unsure and a little squeaky.
Fang chuckled and jumped out the window spreading his midnight black wings, flying in a small circle and then landing lightly next to me blowing my hair slightly from the gush of wind his wings created. He sat next to me and for a few minutes we sat in silence.
"What do you want from me?" I said so softly I didn't even know if he could hear me. But he did. He laughed and shook his head. "What?" I asked a little annoyed.
"It's just; I asked your Mom the same thing once when we were 14. It was before we were really together but I guess in some way, we were always together in some strange way. She was just sooo stubborn and such a pain!" I looked at his face, off in his memories. He smiled. "But god did I love her. Even back then, I knew. I knew that she was the one for me no matter how many times she ran from me. Did she ever tell you about our first kiss?"
"No. She never told me anything." I said softly and he looked at me for a second before returning to look ahead.
"It was on a beach. I had just got in a fight with Ari and I was in pretty bad shape. Your mom thought I was gonna die. So she told me to just live, live and be ok. And then just like that, she leaned down and kissed me. I was so shocked but happy at the same time. After that, it was never the same. She and I were never the same. When we were 15, she finally admitted that she felt the same way I did and after that, we were inseparable. I would have done anything for her. She was my world. We fought just like we always used to but we both loved each other too much for that to come between us. When we were 18, I took your Mom aside one night and led her deep into the forest. I had set up a candle lit dinner just for the two of us. Then afterwards, we went on a fly and I told her to land on a small beach under us. I don't know is she remembers, but that was the same beach that she had 1st kissed me. I leaned on 1 knee and told her that no matter what, we would always be together. I told her that I loved her more than anything in the world and that I would always be there. Then, I asked her to marry me. Of course, being your mom, she said no. But later that night, as we were lying on the beach, she said that she loved me so much and that she was sorry. She agreed to marry me but not yet. She promised me that she would marry me but that she wanted to wait. I would have waited forever for her so of course I was fine with that. I kissed her and then well…." He broke off but I understood. My mom was 18 when she had me. You figure it out.
"Anyways, a month later, we were living in a house in Colorado. I kept hearing all these storied on the news and got a few emails from some experiments we knew a while ago. Itex was back. I knew it but your mom, she didn't believe me. I wanted to marry her, to start a family but I knew that it could never happen while Itex was still at large. So I left. She's probably told you how I said that family didn't matter. She's right. I did. I knew that she would never let me go so I said whatever I had to. Really, it was the opposite. I was doing it for my family. For her. I flew for a long time all the while regretting my decision. I was gone for months. Visiting old contacts and destroying every Itex I could find. Finally, the last one. Me and a friend discovered it in Death Valley. It was the school that me and the flock grew up in. They were expecting us and well, there was an explosion. No one survived. Except me. Jeb found me. He took me to his apartment in San Francisco and I stayed there until I was better. I wanted to come home, really I did. But, Jeb told me that your mom hated me. He said that she'd moved on. He told me that when he had told her that I was alive, she had said that she never wanted to see me again. After that, I moved to New York going jobs making websites here and there. I thought of coming back so many times. I visited out house in Colorado, but found it deserted. Every day, I regret leaving." He turned to look at me and I was shocked as I saw tears in his eyes. "Lucy, if I could go back and change one thing, I promise you, I would have never left. If I had known, I swear I never would have left. Please Lucy. You have to believe me…Lucy. I-I'm so sorry."
Tears were falling from my face as I looked into Fangs pleading eyes. I wanted so bad to forgive him. I wanted to forgive him more than anything in the world.
"I-" I started but then…
"LUNCH!!" yelled Nudge from the porch.
"We better go." I said and then jumped up flying off the roof and into the kitchen through the back door. I felt bad for leaving him like that but I just didn't know what to think at the moment. I wanted so bad to forgive him, but I just-.
GOD! Why did everything have to be so complicated!
