Chapter 2

Phoebe

They sat in silence for a split second until Phoebe finally asked, "What was that about?" She asked, referring to his uncommon kindness.

"What was what about?" He chuckled, completely lost because of her randomness.

"The apology, the jacket, your kindness, your more tolerable than usual. Why?" She asked, "Let me guess, you want something?"

Her question made Max chuckle even more, which was making her lose her patience. Fortunately he finally said something before she did, "I'm really just in a good mood, Phoebe." He said, "Don't worry I'll be back rude to you by tomorrow." He teased, in a dry tone.

The silence returned, then Phoebe spoke again. "Well, I have to say_" She hesitantly finished, "I had really good time with you today." She said as if it hurt her.

Max beamed at his sister, & it looked strange to Phoebe. She had never seen him smile so big before, & she liked it. It actually bizarrely made her heart throb & her stomach twist, she returned the same delightful gaze back at him. "Yeah." He said, then he looked away at the sunset. "Me too." Then he gazed back at his twin, her stomach was fluttering inside. The colorful sky gave him a beautiful skin tone & his eyes twinkled like the stars appearing in the sky.

Was she _ No, no, no, it must be the Ski Lift. Phoebe was afraid of heights thanks to Thunderman the Ride, so the height must be making her stomach flop all over the place. She must've been looking down with a terrified look in her eyes because Max soon asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." She replied. "Just thinking." She looked back up at her twin, who now was looking back at the sky. He seemed to be admiring the beauty, but of course Max wouldn't go into depth about what exactly he's feeling. Phoebe's eyes couldn't stop looking at him, she was even complimenting his appearance in her head. I mean he isn't ugly. Why haven't any girls have a crush on him in the past_ other than Sarah. Allison is one lucky girl, Phoebe thought to herself. She gazed him for a long time, was she_ no it's just the Sky lift. The Sky lift must be giving her these romantic feelings, this is place where people possibly make out at.

She moved her eyes on the ground, & she observed the many cars that looked like ants. Her palms were becoming sweaty, what was this feeling that kept possessing her emotions toward Max.

He still was a jerk on the inside, he still was annoying as ever, he even said he will still continue to insult me as soon as the day is over, Phoebe thought as she ran her thumb against her palm. Max is jerk, he was kind because he was in the moment. That's all.

She caught herself looking at him again, & she was becoming infuriated with her involuntary actions. "What the frick.." She whispered to herself.

Max immediately looked at Phoebe, "Ooh, see that was close. Now you gotta say it."

"No, I'm not saying it."

"Say it, Phoebe. You know you want to. Best to get it out now than to hold it in as soon as you get in the house."

"No."

"Come on, Pheebs. Let it out." He badgered.

"I'm not swearing, you might like the taste of soap but I don't."

"Okay first of all, that was when we were kids. Now second, we are technically allowed to swear since you & me are both 17 going on 18. And lastly, Free yourself, stop taming your wild side."

Phoebe stared at her twin for a long time, "Fuck it." A voice within her said out loud, receiving Max's eyes to widen in pleasure.

"That's what I'm_" Phoebe crashed her lips into his warm soft lips, just before he could congratulate her. She could no longer resist this new attitude that was attracting her. As soon as she realized what she had done, she became petrified. What have she done? Max pulled his lips away from hers with a staggering stare in his eyes, Phoebe had never felt so humiliated & scared before like how she did now.
