Review? I'd appreciate it
Fang's POV
Ugh. Why is Max doing this?
She just called me and told me she changed her mind about staying here with me and going to the University of Nebraska. Instead, she plans to go to New York; she said she had to get away from this town where she was a nobody.
I called up my friend, Christofer; he always knows what to do.
"Hello?" I heard his voice come through the phone.
"Iggy, man, I need your help. It's about Max," I told him. Iggy is his nickname; I've called him it ever since we were kids who lived across the street from each other.
"What's going on?" he asked. I always go to him with my Max-related problems.
"We had it all planned out, man. We'd go to N.U. together, graduate, get jobs, get married, buy a house, maybe even have some kids, and she just called me-"
"What'd she say?" he cut me off, he already knew all about our plans.
"She said she was sick of this town and she had to get away. She said she was going to New York to 'become someone'. I don't know what to do."
There was a long pause.
"Ig? Earth to Christofer, are you there?" I asked, thinking he got sick of my problems and hung up.
"Yeah, man, I'm here. This is too weird, I just wrote a new song yesterday and it kinda goes perfectly with your little situation," Christofer is an aspiring singer/musician.
"Dude, what are you waiting for? Sing it!"
"Okay, okay, chill," I heard the phone click meaning he put it on speaker so I could hear his piano or guitar or ukulele.
(A/N bold=singing, italic=Fang's thoughts)
You say were both little people and you like it that way she had said that at one point
But in time I'm gonna put this body to shame, grow old
Where a suit like my old man
Pack up all my things and get my ass outa town
We've got it good, whether you like this town or not
I know it's small but with a big head it's bound to get hot
In the summer but the summer is a bummer if you can't leave
This pathetic excuse for a town
That holds all your memories this town does hold all our memories
A life time of crushes and your broken dreams we both had quite a few of those
To be anywhere but here
But baby anywhere is away from me that's exactly why I don't want her to go
If you, if you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about? She was yelling at me on the phone when I said I didn't want her to go
This Midwest town is gonna miss you it will miss her
Just go ahead and work it out she always fixes her problems
But first come on and let it out
Scream and shout and tell everybody that you're gonna leave she did that already
In about one year you'll have it all figured out I don't know if I can wait a year
These big city dreams are what you're about
Walking like stranger among these states
Only time will tell how long I can wait I can't wait
We've got it good whether you like this town or not we have it more then good here
I know it's small but with a big head it's bound to get hot she does have quite the big head
In the summer but the summer is a bummer if you can't leave my summer will be a bummer if she leaves
This pathetic excuse for a town this town isn't that bad
That holds all your memories New York doesn't have any of her memories
A life time of crushes and your broken dreams
To be anywhere but here
But baby anywhere is away from me I don't want her away from me
If you, if you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about?
This Midwest town is gonna miss you
Just go ahead and work it out
But first come on and let it out
Scream and shout and tell everybody that you're gonna leave
Me again oh so casually
Would you take the hit for me or the home team?
If you, if you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about?
This Midwest town is gonna miss you
"Dude, how do you do it? That was great, but what am I supposed to do about Max?" I questioned.
"Call her; tell her you love her and if she wants to go off and find herself or whatever then you support her. If the love you guys have is real, and I know it is, she'll go, but she'll come back. It's gonna be hard but the more she thinks you want here to stay, the more suffocated she'll feel and the more she'll want out."
I hate it when he's right, but he was.
"I guess you're right. But now, when Max is gone, I'm calling on you to write me sad songs about how much I miss her," I heard him chuckle.
"Anytime, man. Now go call Max and tell her!"
How'd ya like it? Haha, I made Iggy Christofer Drew:)
Ok, review? I'll probably get Over The Years up later today so look out for it:)
