Prisoner- Chapter 65
"Max?" Someone said snapping me awake from my sleep.
I opened my eyes slowly and saw Fang looking at me with a slightly puzzled look.
"Max, why are you sleeping on the couch?" Fang asked crossing his arms and looking down at me with questioning eyes.
Memories of the night flooded back into my brain and I immediately tried to force them out. I didn't want Fang to suspect anything, so I'd have to act normal around him and the only way to do that was to not think about what Gazzy had told me last night.
"Max?" Fang said bringing back to here and now.
"Sorry, I'm just a little out of it."
"I noticed." He said sitting next to me. "How long did Gazzy stay up?"
"Not too long." I said shaking my head.
"He tell you what the nightmare was about?"
"Yeah." I nodded.
"And?"
"Why are you so curious?" I asked looking over at him.
"Because Gazzy sees stuff that's going to happen in the future." Fang explained. "I'd like to know what to expect."
"This wasn't a vision." I lied. "It was just a nightmare."
I made sure to turn away from his gaze, so he couldn't tell I was lying. I felt terrible right now, I wanted to tell him the truth, but I couldn't.
"How do you know?" He asked furrowing his brow.
"It was a nightmare of the day Angel was taken." I lied further in detail.
I looked over at Fang to see him nodding slightly, he bought it. For once, Fang couldn't tell I was lying and I was grateful for that.
"So, why'd you sleep on the couch?" He asked looking over at me again.
I shrugged.
"I was really tired after talking to Gazzy and Iggy, so…"
"You talked to Iggy last night too?"
I mentally kicked myself. How was I supposed to explain talking to Iggy last night. It would just be another lie that I would have to pray Fang didn't catch onto.
"Yeah, we threw a party and decided not to invite you." I said rolling my eyes. "Why are you firing all these questions at me?"
He shrugged.
"Does it bother you?" He asked with a small smirk.
"Yeah, actually it's getting pretty annoying." I said rubbing my temples.
I looked up to see him giving me a weird look.
"I'm sorry." I said with a sigh. "I just didn't get much sleep last night."
He brought his hand up and ran it over my hair, then placed a kiss on my forehead. I laid my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes.
Unfortunately that moment of rest lasted only a couple of minutes, because scuffle of feet could be heard behind us. I jumped up and turned to see Angel and Nudge.
"You woke up on your own." I said shocked.
"Yep." Angel said giving me a proud smile.
I smiled back and gave her a hug then I turned and gave Nudge one too. I could tell she wasn't quite awake yet, but that didn't surprise me.
"Are Gazzy and Iggy still asleep?" Angel asked looking up at me.
"Yeah, I'll wake them soon." I said running my hand over her blonde locks.
"We're awake." Iggy said stepping out of his room with Gazzy behind him rubbing his eyes, he looked really tired, like I felt.
When I had gone to the store with Fang we had gotten enough food for three days, so we'd have to go get more food either tomorrow or the day after.
"Gazzy." Nudge called out tossing him a warm soda.
Unfortunately, he wasn't paying attention and the soda crashed through the window.
Gazzy turned to look at me with wide eyes and Iggy immediately tensed up. I felt my mouth agape and my eyes wide staring at the broken window. Gazzy's dream was coming true and sooner than I'd expected.
"Oops." Nudge said quietly.
I could tell she and Angel had no idea about Gazzy's dream, which was definitely for the better. Reason one, Fang would hate it if he was the only one who didn't know about the dream, well he'd hate it even more at least. Reason two, Nudge and Angel weren't very good at keeping secrets.
I felt my heart racing and my breathing quicken. My body felt numb and almost frozen in that spot. The only movement I made was to get out of the room and fast. I ran outside and leaped into the air flapping my wings furiously to get higher in the air.
I just needed to get away.
AN: Hope you liked it! I know people will want to kill me if Fang is dead, lol. Reviews are love!
