Chapter 37
Fang Pov
"I believe you owe me something." I whispered as we got to the house.
Max gave me a blank look, "Not now."
I rolled my eyes. It wasn't good that she had so much control over me like this but I didn't really care at that moment. "When?" I demanded.
"Later." She answered. I had always had the impression that when in a dating relationship the man got to lead. Not with Max. She got to be in charge no matter what the issue. I sighed and let it be.
"Max what do you think we're doing tomorrow?" The Gasman asked tiredly.
Max laughed a little, "I don't know Gasser, Knowing the pack, it will be something awesome. Off to bed guys. Ella, you can have Fangs bed and he will sleep on the couch."
I still wasn't use to sleeping in a bed, and apparently she knew that. My bed was extremely cushy and you sunk down into it and it became nearly impossible to get out of. I nodded. We stacked and tapped then Ella and the flock headed up the steps. Max waited for them to go out of sight then she hugged me and kissed my cheek before running up the steps after the flock. "Cheater." I whispered after her.
I tapped on the door and waited for Max to open it. I would have walked in without waiting but Ella was in there too.
"What?" I took that as an okay to open the door and walked in.
"Max, I need you to cut my hair." I said holding up a razor.
Max looked over my laptop at me, "Why can't you cut it yourself?"
"I can't see the back of my head." Every once in a while Max has moments where she just acts like an idiot. She always cuts my hair.
Max rolled her eyes and shut the laptop. "Fine."
"Max, if you cut it all off I'll get you." I warned. "I just want to be able to see."
Max sighed, "You should let me cut it short."
"No."
Max sighed and picked up a pair of scissors.
"Hey no shorter than that." I said lightly as she went for a second round of cutting.
"Please?"
"Wow Max I didn't know you begged." I smirked..
Max just shrugged. She snatched the razor off the counter and ran it up my scalp.
"Max!" I cried. She had the longest guard there was on it but it still cut a lot of my hair off.
Max smiled at me, "You really don't care about your hair that much do you? Besides, you can't leave it like that."
I wished I could growl like Merric. "Fine, but I will get you for this."
"It's still long," Max said as she continued. "And it will grow back."
I crossed my arms and waited for her to finish.
"I'm off balance now." I grunted running a hand through my short hair.
"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard you say." Max said. "Besides, I like it."
"I don't care if you like it. I don't like it." I said leaving the bathroom.
The doorbell rang. I sighed and went to let the pack in.
"Nice hair cut Fang." Aaron said seriously. Kale smirked.
"We uh, brought gingerbread." John said holding up a grocery bag. (The reusable kind! GO GREEN!)
Nudge ran down the steps and hugged Kale. "Hey Kale!" She said.
Kale smiled and replied with the same amount of enthusiasm, "Hey Nudge!"
Max came down and smiled at Aaron, "Don't you think Fang's hair looks good?"
"Heck yes." Aaron replied returning the smile.
I rolled my eyes. "He isn't happy about it." Max explained.
"Come in guys." I said.
Angel appeared from the kitchen smiling, "Iggy said we could help him make the gingerbread!" She told us. "I heard you and told him." She added after hearing our thoughts.
"Except for Max!" Iggy yelled. "She will ruin everything if she so much as touches the food!" I heard Ella giggle.
"Let's go." Angel said
"I'm allergic to Ginger." John said hopping on his crutches to the living room.
"I don't really feel like making the gingerbread I just want to make the house." Nudge said following John and Katie. Kale was right on her heels.
Angel sighed.
"I'll help Ange." I said. Angel smiled at me.
"I', horrible at cooking" Aaron said.
"I go where she goes." Merric said.
Max followed Angel and I into the kitchen.
"It's just you me Ella Fang and Max." Angel informed Iggy.
"I said no Max and you get Max and her boyfriend?" Iggy cried.
Ella giggled until I punched Iggy in the gut.
"Hey, don't pick on the blind kid!" Iggy huffed. "Make yourself useful and go get the flour."
I reached under the counter into the cupboards and pulled out the flour. "Done."
"Now spread a little bit of it on the counter here." Iggy commanded.
Max reached into the flour and spread two handfuls of it on the counter.
"Max, I think that's too much." I said.
Max shrugged spread it out a little more.
Iggy and Ella were acting much more professional than us.
"That is way too much get rid of some of it" Ella told us.
Max flicked a pile of it at me. I flicked some back at her.
"Hey, stop playing and help us out." Ella snapped.
I picked up the trash can and held it under the table and stated to sweep flour off the counter with my hand. Max leaned over and pushed a huge pile off the counter. It didn't go into the trashcan. A small white cloud appeared as it hit my shirt.
I grabbed a hand full and dropped it over her head. Angel laughed while Ella looked worried.
Max glared at me and reached into the bag. I ducked and she missed. But she hit Iggy. Iggy turned to glare in our direction. "I was trying to hit Fang." Max defended. Iggy didn't go for it; he reached out and found our pile of flower. He hit Max square in the face with skill that made us wonder if he had gotten his sight back and just not told us. It caked her face to the point where she was able to reach up and scrape a layer off. She missed again and hit Ella this time. And thus began the war of the white flour as it would come to be know. Ella got me and I got Max who mistook me for Iggy who went after me for making Max go after him. It became a vicious cycle. Even Angel who hadn't been part of the fight ended up covered in flour.
Eventually we ran out of flour. We looked around to see that the whole kitchen was covered in flour. "You and Fang are cleaning this up." Iggy said. I suppose Angel sent him a mental picture of the kitchen. He and Ella went back to work on the gingerbread. Max and I went to find brooms.
"Well have fun Max." I said
"What? Where are you going?"
I smirked, "I'm going to take a shower. You have to clean up." I said walking heading down the hall.
"Why?" Max demanded. "You need to help too."
I smiled, "I warned you I would get you back for the hair thing. I think this is punishing you lightly." I said.
Max huffed and turned went to the pantry to find a broom. I went to the bathroom to shower.
So it was kind of short but I liked it.
