A.N- AriLivesnotDylan- I barely understood you but thank you and I will:)
Dopeycookiemonster- I'm really sorry to tell you this but your idea won't work for this story because of a huge detail that you all can't know of yet… BUT, I really like your idea haha. And I like drama too so I think I'd rather them throw punches and hate each other hahhah.
SPOILER: (don't read this if you don't want to know!) I actually like Fang BECAUSE he's all silent and stuff and don't worry Mylan haters. Because in this story Max will end up with Fang, even after all the stuff I make be in the way… and trust me… there will be a LOT more (well one huge thing).
MCH- will do:D
XXAustenGirlXx- Thank you so much!
Mary Kenson- I think it will go in this story because that vote is winning 3 to 1. Oh and, good to know- I'll put yay instead of yey now…
Half 'the Secret's Out
I had somehow managed to get to Fang's hide-out without throwing up or doing anything out of the ordinary, which I was extremely proud of might I add.
As soon as we landed though, my stomach churned in the most awful way possible. I ran straight into the woods nearby and left the flock (not so much Nudge and Iggy) a little frazzled. As soon as I knew no one could hear me I puked my guts out behind a bush.
A minute later, when I felt better, I got up and wiped my sweaty forehead. 'Ugh…' I thought. 'Voice, please tell me this won't be a normal pregnancy. Please say this will be a heck of a lot quicker.'
'I wish I knew Max' it answered a few seconds later.
I hadn't expected it to actually answer, but I won't complain.
(Nudge)
We had separated from Fang because of how we traveled and we'd been following them to a location that I'm not allowed to say. But when we finally got there it was a little sooner than Fang and his group because of all the forest. We could easily fly over it but Fang had to walk on foot for a while with his gang. But He'd told us where it was so we could see if we could find the door, and just check out the outside.
Right as we landed though, Max bolted for the trees. Dylan didn't think twice about following her so Iggy and I (who know why she'd ran) had to both hold him back and convince him it was just nature calling. After a few minutes we had managed to sit him down.
Iggy and Max had told me they'd figured out what the voice meant and that they were sure Max was prego. I was so excited and still am. I mean I'm going to be an aunt for Pete's sake! But they'd made me shut up like usual.
I don't even get why Max wants to keep it a secret. I think it'd be safer for the baby if everyone know, so we could be careful. And plus the dad should know… Or the 'maybe' dad… She probably doesn't want Dylan and Fang to fight or something…
That's why! But I think telling them sooner would lessen the badness of it. So they won't be mad they didn't know sooner. We all know Max is going to eventually show and they'll all find out-
"Nudge could you go check on Max? See if she's ok- or needs something I mean" Iggy says lowly.
I nod and Dylan gets up and looks at Iggy "Iggy why are you nerves and scared? I thought you said she had to go… Why wouldn't she be ok?" Dylan says getting louder and louder and then looking at me.
"She is" I say quickly "she told me she had to go before she left… She must have forgotten to though. And you know Max… haha… she might have… tripped... over a…" not knowing what to say but knew I had to say something quick; I say the first thing that came to mind "stick?"
Iggy gives me a 'really?' look and Dylan tilts his head to the side confused "trip over a stick? Max is the most coordinated person I know-"
"Thanks Dylan, means a lot to me" Max says coming from behind some bushes.
"Max!" Iggy screams relived. Wow that boy had really been worried…
(Max)
"Nice to see you too Iggy. Has it really been… two minutes already, wow" I say looking at my invisible watch. "Where does the time go?" I exclaim sarcastically.
"Sorry we just thought you'd… tripped over a stick…" he says looking at Nudge.
"Um did I miss something?" I say looking around. "Never mind. Hey where's Gazzy?" I say noticing he wasn't in sight.
"Oh he's, um Dylan where'd he go?" Nudge says now looking around.
"Gazzy!" I scream getting really scared.
Gazzy then walks in from around the corner of the large boulder we'd landed in front of and says "calm down, I'm right here."
I run to him and hug him now feeling super sad that I'd almost lost him and start crying.
"Max calm down we hadn't even lost him. I knew where he was the whole time." Dylan says coming over to me and notices I was crying.
"Shit" I hear Iggy say.
"Oh you did? Gazzy you scared me! Dylan why didn't you tell me sooner!" I say angrily now.
Nudge and Iggy look at each other nervously as I realize I'm over exaggerating. "Sorry Max" Dylan says and I feel myself calm down.
"Thanks" I say and then add "sorry I over exaggerated."
Right then Fang came out of the woods with his group behind him. "Was that you screaming?" he asks me looking worried.
"Uh yea sorry. Misunderstanding though, so no biggie" I say.
"Ok? Well anyway, did you all find the door?" he asks.
"Well they didn't even look. But I couldn't find it" Gazzy says disappointed.
"What did you all do then?" Maya asks. I think that's the first time I heard her talk, isn't it? I don't know. Who cares?
"Max had to pee" Gazzy says nonchalantly.
I look at him and then at Nudge and Iggy. They nodded and I just figured I should go with it. Better that then to raise suspicion with the truth "yup, pee" I say nodding, my head, ignoring the fact that I probably looked and sounded insane.
Gazzy looked at me and then back at Fang "and then the rest of them just stayed here and talked to Dylan.
"Oh well ok do you all want to look for the door some more? Or do you believe me that this place is safe?" he says crossing his arms and leaning on the boulder.
"What do you guys want to do?" I ask looking back at my flock.
"I want to look for the door Max, please?" Gazzy begs coming up to me and looking up at my eyes.
"I do too!" Nudge squeals, which surprises me since she usually wouldn't want to go around a mossy forest and look for a hidden door she might not even find.
"Same here, I really want to see the look on people's faces when the blind guy finds the hidden door" Iggy says smiling.
"Hate to break it to ya Igs," I say coming up to him "but I don't think you're considered blind to the world anymore."
He looks down at me and just stays quiet, frowning.
I hear some people snicker and then turn back to Fang "ok, well I think we'll stay here for a while until we give up."
… about ten minutes later
I'd given up about two minutes into the search and just sat on a rock because my head hurt. Fang had joined me instantly since he was actually right behind me as I searched, and Dylan joined us a minute later looking tense about Fang being so close to me.
They just sat there awkwardly till now when I spoke up, affectively breaking them away from their glaring contest. "Guy's I'm really sorry about the other day" I say looking at the ground between them. They were both sitting on the ground in front of my rock about a foot away.
They both looked at me and were about to say something until they realized what I'd said. Both their faces went blank and they stared at me, then at themselves.
"You mean you… with both of us?" Dylan asked confused.
I nodded my head slowly still looking at the ground. When an awkward silence was firmly set up I snuck a peak at their faces to see what I was in for.
First at Fang who was looking at me. He was expressionless like usual, but I could see the corners of his mouth tilting ever so slightly downward. That usually meant he felt awkward and didn't know what to do. I could also see that his eyes were a tiny bit narrowed which meant he was mad. Anyone who saw him though might say I'm crazy and that he just looked bored, but I knew him, I knew his every expression.
Then I looked a little over to Dylan. He looked a little hurt before he turned to Fang and just looked straight up pissed. "You" he said simply.
Fang was still looking at me and didn't even flinch when Dylan said that. Even though he knew quite well he was talking to him. He stared into my eyes and as I looked in his I saw how much my words had hurt him. "I didn't mean to" I say getting a teary eyed.
He just kept looking at me and now actually let the pain show on his face. "Fang I'm talking to you" Dylan says reminding us he was there.
I sniffled trying to keep my nose from being runny. Dylan got up now and looked down at Fang "How could you sleep with her? You probably forced her to too!" he bellows angrily.
Fang gets up now and looks away from my eyes to Dylan "oh shut up."
"Don't tell me to shut up runt" Dylan says to him. He was only a few inches taller but noticeably bigger so I got scared that he might actually hurt Fang if provoked.
"Whatever and you can't say anything cus you did it too!" Fang says getting angry.
"Stop!" I say as I get up too.
They completely ignore me though and Dylan just pushes me back softly with his hand "yea but that was different. She actually wants me, she doesn't give a shit about you after you left her" Dylan says.
"Cut it out!" I scream as I get closer again "and quit talking about me like I'm not right here Dylan!"
Iggy then comes over with Nudge, Gazzy, and all the others after they hear the commotion. "Oh oh" I hear Nudge and Iggy say at the same time.
"Not again" Star says aggravated.
Kate looks sad about another fight and starts walking over to stop it until Ratchet grabs her shoulder and says "let them work it out."
Maya simply shakes her head at the situation.
"Max move" Fang says looking over at me right before Dylan shoves him back. "Don't" he warns Dylan firmly.
"What are you gonna do about it?" Dylan threatens.
Iggy looks at me and looks scared. Not from Dylan and Fang though, but for me.
"Dylan" I say coming from his left to his front and looking at him trying to feel as calm as possible.
"Max move" he says and pushes me to his right now. I'm closer to the others now, and Iggy comes and grabs my hand. He tries to walk me back to where the others were, further away, but I stubbornly stay and shake my hand free.
"You guys better not fight over this. It was my fault! I'm the one who did it with both of you. Neither of you knew, so Dylan there's no way it could be Fang's fault so shut up!" I say, so angry now that they were angry, that I actually wanted to hit someone.
Dylan looks at me and gets what I was saying.
Fang had already got it but still wasn't very mad, just sad.
Dylan looks at Fang "sorry. I over reacted didn't I?"
Fang makes a 'ya think?' face but then looks at me again "Why?"
That one word made me feel more awful than any other thing I can remember in my life.
Now Dylan looks at me too "yea Max, why'd you do it?"
A.N- Sorry guys this isn't one of my best chapters but I got stuck and didn't really know how to make this happen. I tried a bunch of things until I got to this and it looks weird, I know…
Oh and by the way, I try to make this story as realistic as possible but I realized that what I'm going to make happen is so completely unrealistic and that no one could ever guess it. I mean I knew already that it was impossible but I see how weird it is now. But oh well, it'll make this story pretty original and creative:)
Love,
