Chapter 37

(Max)

"What?" I exclaimed jumping up.

Fang sighed, "I don't know, but one day something in my head told me I had to help save the world."

I narrowed my eyes at Fang and he avoided my gaze.

"Fang." I said slowly, "When did this happen?"

Fang sighed and looked up at me, "Before Total's wedding."

"Was this before or after I saved your life?" My voice getting colder.

Fang avoided my gaze again, "After."

I gave a sigh of frustration and glared at Fang, "You never told me this because?"

And then it hit me.

"Don't tell me-"

Fang nodded. I sat back down and glared at him.

"So you left because a voice told you too?"

Fang nodded, "Yea."

I put my head in my hands.

"Wait what?" Iggy asked.

Fang opened his mouth, but I cut him off.

"Fang's been keeping a little secret to himself," I said sitting upright again and glaring at Fang.

"Oh...Wait I still don't get it." Iggy said.

"It's not just me," Fang said looking at Maya, "It happened to Maya too."

I looked at her and she nodded.

"Well," I said leaning back, "This just makes everything more confusing."

I sat there and thought about all this new info. Does that mean everyone has a voice or something. Or is it just my voice. Was the Voice causing all this anyway. That thought has never occured to me until now. I could ask, but it probably wouldn't answer me. Besides if I did ask it wouldn't tell me anything useful and I really didn't want another headache at the moment.

"So what now?" Fang asked.

I closed my eyes. I was tired and upset. We haven't found anything useful as to what the Doomsday Group was up to, and we still haven't figured anything out. After a while I opened my eyes and saw that everyone was looking at me. I looked at the clock. It was midnight. I sighed.

"I'm beat," I said standing up to stretch.

"Good night guys," I said waving my hand.

I opened the door and I saw the door to me, Nudge's, and Total's room close. I sighed and unlocked and opened the door to my room. Nudge, Gazzy, and Total were lying down asleep.

"Alright," I said clapping my hands, "Get up you guys."

Nudge, Gazzy, and Total sat upright right away.

"Don't lie to me," I said sternly, "Were you guys eavesdropping on us?"

Nudge and Gazzy slowly nodded. Total casually licked his paw.

"Total?" I said sternly.

"Well I wanted to hear what was going on too," Total said.

I sighed and sat down on a bed. Gazzy sat next to me and Nudge came over to sit on my other side. Total lied down In my lap.

"How much did you guys here?" I asked.

"All of it," Nudge said.

I looked at Gazzy. His eyes watery.

"Do you really think she's alive?" Gazzy asked.

"I hope she's alive Gazzy, I really do," I said.

Gazzy nodded sadly and put his head on my shoulder. Soon Nudge and Gazzy were asleep. I carried Nudge to her bed and gently put her down. Total was already lying down next to Gazzy.

I grabbed a blanket and a pillow and headed to the little couch the room came with. I curled up into a ball and closed my eyes.

I don't know why, but I was angry. Angry that I wasn't able to protect Gazzy and Nudge from what they heard. Angry that I still haven't found Ella. Angry at the Doomsday Group. Angry and the Voice. Angry that I wasn't getting anywhere close to figuring this puzzle out. But mostly...I was angry at Fang.

He left and broke my heart all because a voice told him to. Even I wouldn't do that.

After I had stabbed him in the heart, don't worry it saved him, I actually thought everything would be ok again. That we could be happy again, but that whole time. That whole entire freaking time Fang was already planning on leaving me.

What made it worse is he never thought of telling me this until now. I always told him everything. So why couldn't he tell me this one little huge thing. We could've figured something out or...something.

What's happened in the past is in the past. Right now I couldn't be upset over this stuff. Forgive and forget. Except I don't forgive and I never forget

There was a knock on the door. I sighed and got up from my comfortable position. I walked across the room and opened the door. Standing in the doorway was Dylan.

I sighed, "Gazzy's gonna sleep here tonight," I said, "I don't want to carry him all the way to his bed."

Dylan nodded, "Are you ok?"

I nodded, "Yea I'm fine."

"Everything's going to be ok Max," Dylan said.

I sighed in frustration, "How do you know?"

Dylan chuckled making me even more annoyed.

"Because you're the great Maximum Ride," Dylan said," Everything will end up ok because of you."

I rolled my eyes and stood there frozen as Dylan's lips reached mine. My heart pounded in my chest. I didn't know how to feel.

Behind Dylan there was a shadow in Fang's doorway. Fang. I was angry with him all over again, but why should I let him bother me like this. Like Angel had said not too long ago he could stay and weigh in or just stay out of my life. He'd already chosen. He left.

So right there in that very hallway I closed my eyes and put my arms around Dylan's neck. Just like I've done with Fang before.

Except this time it was perfect. Everything was perfect. We were just a perfect match. I heard a door close, but I didn't care.

Soon me and Dylan broke apart. He grinned down at me. His blue eyes full of emotion. Mostly love. I smiled up at him then frowned.

"What?" Dylan asked.

"I still have no idea why you like me besides the fact that you were made to like me," I said.

"Even if somehow I wasn't made to like you I would still like you Max," Dylan said.

"Yea, but why is that?" I asked, "All I know is that you think I'm beautiful which I know is a lie."

Dylan chuckled, "It wasn't a lie."

"So," I said crossing my arms and leaning against the door frame, "Why do you like me?"

"Well," Dylan said, "Like I said your beautiful-"

"Lies."

"Your smart-"

"Lies."

"Your strong-"

"Ok now that I believe."

Dylan chuckled.

"Really?" I said, "That's all you got. Two out of three of those were lies."

Dylan rolled his eyes.

"Come on," I said, "What is the one main reason you really like me?"

Dylan stood there for a while then he finally answered me, "I don't know why Fang likes you," Dylan said, "But the main reason I like you is when your stuck in a corner being threatened or hurt and when your life starts to become more and more confusing and messed up you still fight. You never give up, and that's what I love about you."

Then Dylan was gone and I was standing there in the doorway thinking about how he had said the perfect thing.

You'll find out who Max ends up with in the end. Right now I'm just being evil. Mwahaha. Since a lot of you have been wondering I'll tell you now. The next chapter has Angel in it.

Ok this is totally random, but you know how people combine their favorite couple's names. Like Fang+Max=Fax and Dylan+Max=Dax. Then there's those really crazy ones like Figgy (Fang+Iggy) and Giggy (Gazzy+Iggy). Well I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but if you put Fang and Dylan together you get Dang. I can't be the only one who finds this funny...
