Part three!
Disclaimer: Do you really think that I own Maximum Ride after all this time?
January 24th, 2012-
After a couple more rides, and dodging more characters, Iggy and I dropped the kids off at the hotel so they could play X-box or something. Nudge was twelve, almost thirteen, and I'm pretty sure they could handle themselves.
It was almost nighttime, and we stood in front of Cinderella's Castle. "It's beautiful." I breathed. "If only we could afford something like."
"I'd steal something like that for you." He murmured back as he wrapped an arm around my shoulders.
"That's sweet. But, we're probably not going to be able to weasel out of that one if we get caught."
"We'll find a way. We're bird-kids, we can do anything." Iggy grinned. "Besides, Maxie, I'd do anything for you."
"That's sweet." I repeated and stared off aimlessly into the sky. Weren't the fireworks supposed to start by now?
"Max, I'd save the world for you." His voice had gotten deeper and raspier. What was up with that? But I supposed all men go through it...
"Mhm, thanks Ig."
"I would get captured by scientists for you."
"Thanks again."
"I would grow wings and become a mutant if it meant I could be with you forever."
"Okay, that was a little much, Iggy." I turned to face him, and came face to face with none other then...
The creepy pedophile guy!
While I had been daydreaming, this guy had punched Iggy and took his spot next to me. His grimy hand was around my shoulders and I groaned, wishing we had lost him.
He must have taken that groan as a moan of pleasure, so he leaned forward and kissed me. How dare he? I pushed his slobbery lips away from me and punched him in the face, and then kicking him where it counts.
He writhed on the floor. "Never do that to me again." I spat on him. "Or any other girl for that matter." I kicked his foot and started to storm through the crowd that had gathered to find Iggy.
How dare that creeper! I hope he gets put in jail for forcing himself upon me! I'm Maximum freaking Ride and no one, no one I say, forces themselves upon me! I could still feel his dirty fingers on my shoulder. Ew.
I shuddered as I looked for Iggy on the ground. Had he gotten trampled? Had someone taken him away? "Iggy!" I cried in relief as I saw him sitting up, dabbing his nose.
"He has a weak punch." Iggy said weakly as I crouched down next to him. Iggy showed me his nose, it was only bloody, not broken. I let out a sigh that I didn't think I had been holding.
"Thank god you're okay." I murmured as I sat on the pavement with him.
"Thank god you are." He breathed and pulled me into a kiss. And right as our lips meet, the first firework burst into the air, bringing a colorful array of colors with it.
Thankfully, the creeper didn't show himself to me again for the rest of our trip, but I felt Iggy's grip around my waist get tighter when I thought I saw him.
But seriously, I'm Maximum Ride! The only one I want is standing right here next to me.
