Fang-
"Abby, please go to sleep" I begged.
"No, explain to me, who is max? And failures?" Abby questioned stubbornly. Emily was snoring quietly on Iggy's chest, with his mouth hanging open, perfectly content.
I opened my arms gesturing for her to come over to sit on my lap. She came over reluctantly and rested her head on my chest. "Please." She begged.
I sighed. "Max was the leader of our flock. She was designed to save the world. And we were designed to help her. But there was one battle that we couldn't get out of. It was either her, or every other person on the plant. So she gave them her life. I was in love with her." Abby looked up at me. Her eyes were gleaming.
"I'm so sorry." She whispered.
"It's ok. You should have seen the flock. I was not much fun to be around. I was invisible most of the time." She stared into my eyes, making a silent plee for me to explain. "Haha. When I sit still I sort of blend in with whatever background im in." She just shook her head.
"Don't distract me. How did u ever get over your love for Max?"
"Well that's easy," I said, smiling down at her. "I found you." And I bent down to kiss her. "So now please go to sleep." I pleaded
"Ok. Night"
"Good night Abby"
