A/N: I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!
Fang: You're already eating ice cream.
Me: I don't care. (sticks out tongue)
Iggy: What's that on your tongue?
Me: Chocolate.
Iggy: Aah. I thought it was poo.
Chapter 6
Fang POV
"How can you hire the demon daughter of Satan? She's gonna be a bad influence for Angel! How can you? I hate her already! Did you know that she hurt my feelings two minutes ago? Did you?"
I rose a hand to stop Iggy from his shouting. I stood up and left the office. Iggy was right behind me. "Are you even paying any attention to me?"
"Shut up and I'll solve this."
"Oh, I know how you can solve this. Fire her! I say you fire her!"
"And find another maid-slash-nanny?"
"So? You did it so easily. You can do it again."
I glared at Iggy. Clearly he doesn't know what he's talking about. "Just shut up and go back to my room." Iggy sighed and went back to my room.
My heart was beating so fast. I could have knocked but I didn't. I opened her door and my jaw dropped.
"AAAHHH! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE? GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT!" Max screamed and threw a vase aimed at my face. I ducked just in time. The vase crashed to the wall. "CLOSE THE FUCKING DOOR!" I closed the door shut and I saw a slimpse of Max covering her naked body with a towel.
I saw her breasts and... GET OUT OF MY FREAKING MIND!
"What was that?" Gazzy sleepily asked from his room. He rubbed his eyes and looked at me.
"Yeah, Fang. What was that?" Iggy poked his head out of the door. "What the hell was that?"
I shook my head vigorously, trying to get Max's naked body out of my mind. "Nothing."
"Nothing? Are you freaking kidding me?" Iggy slammed his hands on my desk.
I rubbed my face; all I could think about was Max's body. Her first day here and I already saw her naked. Epic fail.
"Iggy, just forget about it. Pick Angel up from her piano lessons."
He nodded and pointed a finger in front of my nose. I looked down at his finger. "Fine. After I get back, I'm gonna get it out of you."
After Iggy left, I went to Max's room. This time, I knocked.
"GO AWAY!" Max yelled from the inside.
"I'm sorry."
I heard Max unlock the door. She opened it and stared icily at me. I looked down at what she was wearing. A purple v-neck shirt and faded jeans. Not naked anymore. Good. "You said your sorry. What else do you want?"
STOP LOOKING AT HER BREASTS.
I cleared my throat. "I want you to meet Angel."
"OK. Lead the way, boss." She called me her boss as if I'm the devil himself.
I took a deep breath and exhaled. I lead her to Angel's room that was only two doors away from her. I knocked on Angel's door. "Come in!"
I opened the door and was almost blinded by Angel's lemon-colored walls. "Like the new color of my room?" We saw Angel standing on a ladder, a paint roller in hand.
"Like it?" It was Max who answered. "You're going to make someone go blind with that color!"
Angel nodded at her. "You're right. Probably hot pink."
"NO!" Max and I shouted in unison.
"What? You hate pink?" Angel frowned.
"YES!" Again, we shouted in unison.
I turned my head to her. "What's up with you copying my answer?" Max asked angrily.
"I wasn't copying you."
"You clearly were."
"I said it first."
"No, I did."
"No, I did."
"No, I did."
"NO, I did."
"Guys!" Both of us turned to Angel. "Stop bickering!" She smiled at Max. "Hi! I'm Angel. You're Max. And I love you already." She went down the ladder and ran to hug Max.
"OK..." Max looked at me kinda funny and patted Angel's head. She forgot our argument that happened three seconds ago.
"By the way," Angel pulled away from Max. "Is everything going OK with you? I heard you say the F-word ten minutes ago."
Max looked at me again. I just shrugged. Yep, she forgot about the argument. Max smiled at Angel. "Oh, I'm OK. I-I... I thought I-I saw a... Rat! Yeah. I saw a rat!"
Now it was Angel's turn to look confused. "OK. Then why did I hear something break?"
"Oh, I used that to kill," She glared at me. I turned away. "the rat. Sweetie, I'm OK."
Angel nodded. "Can you cook?"
"Angel..." I sneered.
Max smiled at her. "I can't. I don't even know how to use the toaster."
Angel's eyes widened. "How can you not know how to use the toaster?"
Max shrugged. "Just don't leave me with any kind of kitchen appliances."
"I'll remember that. Can you dance?"
"I don't dance."
"Can you sing?"
"I can sing."
"Can you sing now?"
"I can. But I don't want to."
"Why not?" Angel whined.
"Because I don't want to." I saw Max winked at Angel and they grinned at each other.
Whoa. It looks like these two are getting along. Angel looked at me. "Yes, Fang. We're getting along. I love her already." Damn. It's like she can read my mind.
I shook my head.
Damn it. She is perfect for the job.
Speaking of perfect, Max's body is so...
SHUT THE HELL UP!
A/N: (pouts) I really hope the UPS truck comes today.
Fang: Why?
Me: Because I ordered some books online!
Iggy: Barnes and Noble?
Me: Yes! I ordered it May 31 and it still haven't arrived. It's already Saturday! It's been five days! Why isn't it here yet?
Fang: Patience, my dear grasshopper.
Iggy: I don't think she's a grasshopper. More like a cockroach.
Me: Shut up, Iggy!
Fang: (laughs) RnR?
