While showering, I heard a loud thud coming from the room next to me. Craaaap. I could only guess what had happened, since it was Iggy and Fang's room. I quickly rinsed the rest of the cinnamon scented conditioner out of my hair, and turned off the water.

I wrapped one of the hotel towels around myself and ran out of my room, grabbing my card as I went out and yanking on the door to Fang's room.

It was no surprise that it didn't open, but I kicked it, hoping not to have to break down the door. I would have to though if no one opened it soon.

The handle moved and the door opened to show a frantic looking, purple, set of boys. I burst out laughing. Fang looked slightly confused, but Iggy smiled gratefully.

"I hope it's washable." I said, trying not to let them off the hook that quickly. Iggy continued smiling at me and then made his way into the bathroom and got into the shower, clothes and all.

Fang just stood there. His nostrils twitched, and I wondered if he had smelled something weird. I sniffed the air, but all I could smell was the cinnamony-ness of my hair.

"Max...why are you in a towel?" He blushed, but I didn't understand what was wrong.

"Because I just took a shower? Which you should actually go do now." I used to wear just a towel around back home, and thought nothing of it. I didn't see what was wrong. But I grinned at him anyway, and almost dropped my towel in surprise and happiness when he smiled back. This was not good for me, not good at all. Nuh-uh.

All of a sudden he looked furious, his eyes looking at something beyond me. Huh?

I turned around to look out of the room, and saw an assortment of young men outside the open door, openly staring. Darn it. I had forgotten that this was NOT back home.

I looked back at Fang, who made a rumbling sound in his throat as he looked at the guys behind me. Was he...growling?

I was sure that I was blushing so hard that my face looked like it was on fire, and so I quickly muttered "I have to leave now." And ran back into my room, locking the door behind me and collapsing on the bed.

Fang POV

Iggy was showing me him and Gazzy's new bomb, which they had named: The Colorater.

I guess they couldn't think of anything better, but the name did really suck.

"One...two...three!" The small box-like thing exploded, and I fell over.

After the cloud of purple dust had dissappeared, settling onto my skin as well as Iggy's, I stood up.

I groaned, why purple?! Iggy started cracking up even though he couldn't see me, I knew he didn't expect me to laugh, so I just smiled slightly, amused at the sight of the now purple room.

The handle of the door started jigalling crazily, like some sort of a monster was behind it. The entire door shook then, as if someone had just kicked it, I swear I could see a slight imprint like the shape of a foot in the wood, but maybe it was just my imagination.

"Can you get the door Fang? I think Max wants to get in." He grinned at me. Oh that guy was good, he could tell it was Max even without looking. "Whatever." I answered. He chuckled.

I went to open the door. Standing outside was Max. I was immediately shocked speechless, she was standing there in nothing but a towel, obviously having just showered a few minutes before.

Was she really that stupid to walk around a hotel in a...in a towel?!

She started laughing as she saw us, probably a good sign, meaning that either she wasn't that mad at us, or she was going insane.

I'm voting for the first option.

"I hope it's washable." She managed to say after she finally stopped laughing.

Iggy smiled at her happily and went into the shower without taking his clothes off.

The fans in the room ruffled my hair with their breeze, sending a delicious smell to my nose. It smelled like cinnamon. I looked wonderingly at her, for the scent came from her. I noticed her beautiful, freshly washed hair. Oh. That must be it. I blushed, though not visibly. She eyed me curiously and sniffed the air.

Trying to direct my thoughts in a different direction, I said "Max...Why are you wearing a towel?"

She just looked at me, and I blushed hard enough to notice.

"Because I just took a shower? Which you should actually go do now." She smiled at me, and though I tried desperately not to, I smiled right back. The fact that I had smiled seemed to amaze her greatly, and she stared at my face with an expression of...what is it? pleasure? No way. I had already figured out that she didn't like me in that way, she proved it by running away as I was about to kiss her again at the cave.

Fang. I love you both, but it gets tiresome how stupid you and Max are sometimes, you're both too thick-headed to notice how the other cares about you.

I didn't have time to answer Angel, because as I looked behind Max out the door she was holding open, I saw a crowd of guys all staring at her.

She must have noticed something change in my face, because she turned around and looked to see what I was looking at. She blushed furiously and I could tell how horribly upset she was.

Stupid bastards! I growled at them. Making my Max upset! Whoa. I was getting way out of control here, going as far as saying Max was mine in my mind!

That was wrong. Because even if Max liked me back, she would never be mine. No. Max would never be anyone but herself's, she belonged to nothing but the sky, I knew that for a fact. If you tried to catch her, she'd just fly away, she would always, always be free.

"I have to leave now." Startling me out of my poetic thoughts, Max turned and ran for her room, the guys leaving after they saw me glare at them.

Stupid me, burning with stupid jealousy. I knew I would never get over her, she was part of me, it nearly killed me when I left her. I knew it hurt her too but she seemed to be doing fine without me...

Stop it Fang! Do not even, ever think of leaving again! You didn't see Max when you were gone so don't talk like you know everything! Max doesn't...

Max doesn't what Angel?

I can't tell you.

I promise not to tell Max. Kay?

Fine. Max doesn't know what she'd do without you Fang, she doesn't know how to live without you. She admitted it to herself, you are her everything. Okay I'm leaving now. Bye bye.

Her presence in my mind faded, leaving me with nothing but a headache of confusion.
