Chapter 8
Thanks for all of the reviews. I want five more reviews for this chapter before I post the next chapter. Yes I'm perfectly fine with bribing you :D Oh and I know that my kissing scene sounds exactly like everyone else's but I couldn't think of any other way to write it. Though I did add the hearts beating thing which I haven't read in any fan fictions …yet. Oh and I'm trying to move things along a bit after the kiss. My story has just taken three days and at this speed my story is going to be like 200 chapters long before we even get to the headquarters so sorry if it seems a little rushed.

Max POV:
Fang leaned back a little bit and looked me in my eye. I think that he saw something there because he laughed softly. He has such a nice laugh. Fang took his hand and lifted my chin up. He took advantage of my mouth being open, since you know; my jaw dropped. He leaned down slowly, so slowly. I couldn't take it anymore and I leaned forwards. Meeting my lips with Fang's.
I think I've died and gone to heaven! Fang's kiss was just…breathtaking. At first when I leaned forwards Fang was kind of shocked for like, a split second. He then seemed to get his bearings and put his hand on the small of my back and pulled me closer to him. He started the kiss off gently. Just a light brush of the lips, but then he slowly deepened it. I raised my arms on instinct and put them around Fang's neck. Oh my god, his lips tasted so sweet. I don't know how to describe it. I was enveloped with Fang's scent, and just an essence of Fang. His other hand went to the back of my neck slowly tracing circles while pulling me even closer if it's possible. He is so warm and strong. I hesitantly started to kiss him back.
Fang's POV:
Oh god! Do you have any idea what if feels like to kiss the girl you've secretly been in love with for like ever? Let me clue you in. It feels awesome. Max's lips were so soft moving against mine. I was floating on cloud nine. Max seemed a little shy when she started to kiss me but she soon lost all of her shyness and kissed me with a passion I don't think she knew that she had. Max felt so soft…and she tasted so good. Her lips tasted of…Max. There is no word to describe her. No word in the world can capture the essence of Max. She is just… I don't know but it's good. This has got to be the best kiss I've ever had in my life. The kiss in the cave was really good, but this time Max seemed to really get into it and I'm happy to report that she is a really, really, really good kisser. I could feel her heart thudding against mine. Max was all mine and nothing was going to ruin this moment. (Sorry he sound out of character)
Max's POV:
I heard a small sound from deep in his throat. At first I thought that I had done something wrong and started to pull away but Fang just held me tight and continued moving his lips against mine. That's when I realized that the sound he made was a good one. Fang's hand moved from the small of my back and traveled upwards slowly tracing my spine. One of my hands became tangled in Fang's dark hair and I sighed in happiness. Fang pulled back for a second and chuckled. He then leaned in towards me and he kissed me again. I don't know how long we were kissing but my lungs were starting to burn. I ignored it, but after a while I felt dizzy and it felt like my lungs were on fire. We finally had to break apart. Fang leaned his forehead against mine while we both gasped for breath. I listened to the thudding of Fang's heart blending in with the thudding of mine. I felt his chest rise with each labored breath. I was in heaven times 10. We just sat there in comfortable silence trying to collect our bearings. I looked into those chocolate brown eyes and couldn't look away…"I can see that you are completely healed now, aren't you?" I said and then Fang grinned (my entire world seemed to brighten) and leaned towards me again. We kissed…again. (LOL naughty birdies) Just as Fang gently bit my bottom lip and I opened my mouth slightly, we heard coughing. "Cough, cough, hmm, cough." We sprang apart and guess who was standing in front of us gloating.
Iggy
Oh my god, I am going to kill him. "I knew it! I knew you two liked each other." Iggy was having a laughing fit. Yet somehow he still managed to look smug. I just wanted to wipe that look off his face. He then continued "If you two love birds haven't noticed it's time for my watch. I see that you were…preoccupied in other ways. But you two can go to sleep now…though I don't think you want to. Hahaha just wait until the rest of them hear about this."
"Iggy if you value your life you will keep quiet. If I hear a single peep from you, you will die in the most painful way possible. I'm considering mummifying you. You do know that they would pull your brain out through your nose right?" Iggy visibly gulped and nodded. "Okay Max, but umm does this mean that you and Fang are now official?"
"Iggy shut up before I pull your tongue out!" I felt the hear rise up to my cheeks. Iggy just smirked and walked over to the fire. I turned and saw Fang looking at me. "What?" I know I shouldn't have snapped like that but I was embarrassed to the core. Fang just shrugged. I laid down and turned so that I was facing away from Fang. This was going to be one long sleepless night.
Fang's POV:
This is really funny for me. I know that this is not the time to be amused because Max could really do some real damage but when I saw how red her face got…this is just the best night of my life so far.
The Next Morning:
Max POV:
Rise and Shine, wake up Max.
Shut up Jeb, I'm sleeping.
I know that you didn't get much sleep last night after the…incident but you've got to get moving. You know it's not good to stay in one place too long.
Okay I'm up, I'm up. Oh and don't mention the incident again, or I will mentally strangle you.
I see someone is very touchy this morning. Well actually someone was very TOUCHY last night too.
'Shut up JEB!' I mentally screamed in my head.
I can't believe that he just said that. How would you feel if your dad said that to you? I even actually heard amusement in his voice. God kill me now!
I forced myself to my feet and went around waking people up. Iggy was still on watch. Apparently he wasn't tired so that meant that Fang wasn't on watch now. So that meant that he was asleep and that I would have to wake up Fang…when I got to Angel I just told her to wake Fang up (so what if I made her do my dirty work) and I went to HELP make breakfast. Well Iggy actually wouldn't let me help. I was just allowed to get stuff out of the bags. Apparently he thought that I would set him on fire. But that was okay with me, just as long as I looked busy. As soon as everyone had breakfast (Nudge and Angel fed Light pieces of food, and total was getting jealous) I had everyone pack up. "Okay up and away everyone." Iggy and Gazzy flew behind everyone whispering; I have a bad feeling that something is going to get blown up. Angel and Nudge flew together talking. Fang sort of flew to the side of me and I was in front with Light leading the group. I'm actually surprised that the little guy can keep up with us, but he can. We flew until noon when we stopped to rest and have lunch. A couple granola bars and some fruit. We then took to the skies again and everything was going pretty well. Gasman kept everyone laughing and Nudge filled up any awkward silences. We stopped around three for another break to rest and then we kept flying until the sun started to set. That's when we made camp, ate dinner, and slept. Watches would change without comment and nothing seemed that out of the ordinary, on the surface that is. Though everything was completely different beneath the surface.
We continued to travel this way for a couple days. One day as we took to the skies after breakfast; Light decided to inform me that by sunset we should have reached the MIA headquarters. This was news to me but I'm not going to admit that to my flock and look like I don't know what I'm doing. So I just told the flock and acted like I knew this the entire time. Fang however raised a disbelieving eyebrow and shot me a look. How can he do that? He reads me like a book!
Our day passed normally, flying and then stopping for breaks and then more flying. YAY! (Not) I actually feel really lucky that we haven't been attacked by flyboys yet. By the time the sun was setting Light had led us to the east side of the state to a heavily forested area. In this part of the forest the trees were huge and formed a sort of canopy. (I have no idea if this is what the state is like, probably not. But it's my story so I just might be changing states geographical features. Sorry) "Light, what is going on? The sun is setting and you promised we would be at the headquarters by now. What are we doing in some stupid forest? Shouldn't we be in one of the towns or something? Hello Light, answer me." That was actually me and not Nudge. Odd right?
"Shh!" He shushed me! He shushed ME the great Maximum Ride. He is going to regret this. I was about to grab him and make him explain himself when he said "We're here." I looked around and guess what I saw? Trees! I was going to beat that bird so bad… "What do you mean we're here? Where is here? There is nothing here at all." I know I'm being kind of a jerk but I'm not used to handing over my reigns as leader. Besides Fang has me all messed up. Light just ignored me and went over to the tallest tree in this whole dang forest and tapped at it three times and then he blew on it. Yes you heard me right, he blew on it. All of a sudden out of nowhere the MIA headquarters appeared. I looked around. What the heck?
So how was it? Sorry that the kiss went on for like ever, but I just wanted to get that out of my system. There will be more FAX later on though. The next chapter will explain all about MIA and the headquarters. I have an idea for the headquarters that I haven't read on any Fan Fictions yet so I'm hoping that you will all like it. Huge hint that will spoil the next chapter for you: Tarzan. I've said too much! Oh well. Oh and you get to figure out who the leader person is. No it's not Tarzan. I left a hint about who it was in Chapter 6 but only one reviewer caught it. So congrats to maxride08 thank you for actually paying attention to my story. The rest of you might want to go back and read the last paragraph. Or you just can wait until the next chapter. Oh and REVIEW! Or you get no chapter at all. Remember that I want at least 5 reviews. More than that will make me update faster.
