Chapter 2
Fang
Reflection of Pain!
The sound of her scream woke me out of my thoughts and I was instantly on my feet, rushing towards her. Max was on her knees by the lake, shaking like a leaf. Without a second thought, I wrapped my arms around her and planted a gentle kiss on her neck.
"Max, what's wrong?" I asked, allowing a bit of concern to be heard in my voice.
All I received as an answer was a brief shake of her head. And I thought guys were supposed to be the ones with egos!
Before I could utter another word, Max turned to me with tears in her eyes and, flinging her arms around my neck, cried, "Oh, Fang."
Not knowing what else to do, I encircled her in my embrace, wishing in my heart that I could force whatever had scared her away forever. We stayed like that for what seemed like hours, but it felt good just to hold her. I felt something familiar press into my back. The ring. No, our promise that we'd always be together. The promise that I made to her that I'd never part from her side.
"Fang, look into the water and tell me what you see," Max whispered in my ear.
I calmly did as she asked. Immediately, I knew why she had screamed and why she seemed scared out of her mind. It wasn't just her imagination running amok. I saw it too and the possibility of what it could mean scared me more than I was willing to let on!
A/N: Yes, got another chapter up! Hope this makes up for my absence. dead silence Ummm, it does make up for it, right?
