Anyway, this chapter has spoilers in it for Nightmare on Elm Street! Yeah...I know what your thinking..."What would Nightmare on Elm Street have to do with Maximum Ride?!".
Well read the chapter and you'll find out lol :P
2. The way their heads always find the right spot on our shoulder.
3. How cute they look when they sleep.
Iggy sat on the couch and studied the car magazine. Ella sat there texting her friends. Iggy was getting really good and seeing colors. Every so often he would reach down and feel the page to see if he could guess the car. He would ask Ella what the car was. 9 out of 10 times he was right. Ella sighed and sunk into the sofa (not literally lol). Her phone buzzed for the hundredth time that night. She dropped her phone on the coffee table in front of her.
"Bored?" Iggy asked as he closed the magazine and looked at her.
"Yes, I am very much." Ella said. She looked at the clock on the wall. It was 11:30pm and everyone besides Ella and Iggy decided to go to bed early.
"Wanna watch a movie?" Iggy asked.
"Iggy, You can't watch a movie." Ella said looking over at him.
"I can hear the movie," Iggy said back.
"Well OK." Ella said getting up.
"Wait! We will watch a movie on one condition. We watch a scary movie." Iggy smiled. Ella stopped in her tracks. She turned to look at Iggy. She hated scary movies. She thought for a moment. This is probably the only alone time Iggy and her had together and they were going to watch a scary movie? Wow how…weird. Then again its alone time, with Iggy!
"Alright. Whatever's cool with me." Ella shrugged.
"Really?" Iggy asked sounding a bit shocked.
"Yes, really." Ella said walking over to their movie cabinet. She looked down and then up at all the movies.
"Hm, how about saw?" Ella asked as she winced from the just the DVD cover. There was a severed leg on it! EW!
"You sure you could handle it?" Iggy laughed raising an eyebrow. Ella laughed back at him.
"Yeah." Ella said. Her voice sounded unsure. Iggy shook his head.
"Ella, if you don't want to watch it. We don't have to." Iggy said.
"Alright then…" Ella sighed. She walked back over to the couch. She sat next to Iggy. "You choose." She said. Iggy nodded and got up and walked over to the movie shelf. Ella saw him pick up several movies and touch them with his hands.
"How about Nightmare on Elm Street?" He asked looking over at Ella. Ella's heart stopped for a second.
"Um sure." Ella shrugged. Oh gosh, she thought to herself. Iggy put it in the DVD player. He turned off the lights and walked back to the sofa and sat down next to Ella.
It only took about a few minutes into the movie for Ella to freak. She was trying hard not to scream. Ella finally lost her cool when Rod saw Tina dead with cuts on her. Ella grabbed onto Iggy's arm. He laughed.
"You OK?" he asked.
"I'm fine." Ella said, her voice shaking a bit.
About half way into the movie Ella was holding onto Iggy by his waist and had her head on his shoulder; Iggy had his arm around Ella.
Iggy was happy. He was so comfortable with Ella there. He also felt bad for Ella. She would jump every time something scary happened. He didn't want Ella to feel afraid. He wanted to make her feel safe.
By the time the movie was done Ella was glued to Iggy. Iggy tried to stand up but Ella wouldn't let go.
"Um…Ella." Iggy said looking at her.
"So-sorry…" Ella said letting go of him. She looked around into the darkness just incase she saw Freddy Kruger right behind her or something. Iggy turned the DVD player off and then turned the TV off. There was a moment of complete darkness. Ella's eyes widened. Ella looked around and thought she saw Freddy Kruger by the kitchen door. Ella jumped up and ran right into Iggy. She hugged him around the waist because he was clearly too tall. He hugged her back. He noticed she was shaking. Ella tried her hardest not to start crying.
"He's gunna get me!" Ella said.
"He's not going to get you" Iggy said as he sighed and held onto Ella. "We should probably get to sleep." Iggy said.
"No way!" Ella said tightening her hold around Iggy. Iggy didn't really mind because she wasn't that strong. Iggy sighed again. He picked up Ella and put her over his shoulder. She tried to hit him and tried to wiggle herself free from his hold. Iggy didn't care and opened Ella's door. He closed her door and turned on the light. He placed her gently on her bed.
"Now go to sleep." Iggy said as he walked to the door.
"Ig." She said before he opened the door. Iggy looked over at Ella who had sad and scared eyes. Iggy felt bad for her. Note to self: Never let Ella see a scary movie.
"Yeah?" He said.
"I'm…I'm scared." She said looking down embarrassed to say that in front of Iggy. He looked at her and walked over to her and sat down.
"OK, well why are you scared?" Iggy asked her.
"What if I go to sleep and he gets me." She said putting her arms around her legs.
"He's not going to get you. I promise." He said looking at her. Ella shook her head.
"You can't be sure." She frowned.
"OK, how about you and I get ready for bed and then I will come back into your room, sound good?" Iggy asked.
"Sure." Ella said putting on a brave face. Iggy nodded and then left.
Ella quickly got changed into pink plaid shorts and a white tank top that had a pink bow on the bottom left side. Ella looked around her room. She was freaked. Every little noise made her jump out of her skin.
She heard a noise outside her window and immediately remembered the scene where Tina heard noises outside of her window. Ella backed away from the window with wide eyes. She thought she heard scratching from out side the window. She swallowed and kept backing away slowly and quietly so Freddy Kruger couldn't hear her.
Ella kept backing up and ran into Iggy. She screamed and Iggy covered her mouth.
"Relax, it's just me." He said hoping Max hadn't heard the scream.
"Freddy's outside my window." Ella whispered. Iggy gave her a look. He walked over to the window and opened the curtain.
"Oh my gosh!" He yelled. Ella gasped and ran to her bed and then hid under her covers. She then remembered the movie again and jumped out of her bed and tripped on the covers while she got out of the bed. She landed on the floor with a thud.
"There's no where safe!" Ella said as she curled up into a small ball into the corner of her bedroom and hid her face.
Iggy walked over to Ella and put a hand on her shoulder. Ella looked up and Iggy saw tears in her eyes. He wiped the tears from her cheeks.
"I'm sorry. I was just kidding. There's nothing there. You're hearing things." Iggy said. He felt like a jackass for making Ella cry. He really liked Ella and this is definitely really low of him to do.
"I can't go to sleep." Ella sniffled.
"He's not going to kill you!" Iggy said. Ella frowned and hid her face again. Iggy shook his head.
"OK, if he kills you he will come after me next. When he's in my dreams I will kick his ass for killing you and Freddy knows that and he doesn't want to mess with me so your going to be fine." Iggy said as he lifted up Ella's chin. She was smiling. He smiled back at her. He loved her smile. Iggy helped Ella up and brought her to her bed.
"OK. So now are you ready for bed?" Iggy asked.
"Yeah..." Ella said as she got under her covers. "Um…" she said as she looked down.
"What?" Iggy asked still sitting on her bed.
"Can you, uh, sleep in here…with me…tonight?" Ella asked nervous. Iggy smiled and nodded.
"Sure but won't Max get mad?" Iggy asked.
"Why would she? Were just friends." Ella shrugged. She died a little inside. She wanted to be more than that so bad.
"True." He said. He got up and walked over to the light switch. "I'm going to turn the light off OK?" Iggy asked making sure Ella wasn't gunna freak. Ella nodded and Iggy turned the light off. Ella got out of bed and took Iggys hand. Iggy's only been in Ella's room a few times and still wasn't used to moving around the room. Ella led Iggy over to her bed. Then they both got into Ella's bed. Ella sighed and faced toward the wall.
"You OK?" Iggy asked. He sounded really close to her and Ella shivered.
"Yeah...just a little freaked." Ella said. Iggy scooted closer to Ella and made a daring move by putting an arm around Ella's waist. He pulled Ella closer to him. Ella didn't refuse. That actually made her feel 100% better.
"Thanks Iggy." Ella smiled and turned toward Iggy; his arm was still around her waist.
"No problem. Now try and get some sleep. I promise I won't leave your side." Iggy said. Ella smiled and closed her eyes and snuggled against Iggy. If Max came in right now they would both be dead meat but neither Iggy nor Ella cared at that point they were both really happy.
It was about 9:30am when Iggy woke up. He felt Ella's head on his chest. He smiled. He really didn't want to get up but it was 9:30 and Iggy was afraid that Max would come into Ella's room and see them together. Not that Iggy was ashamed to be seen with Ella but he just didn't want to get her into any trouble.
Iggy carefully got out of bed and looked down at Ella who was sound asleep. He smiled and bent down to look at her. He moved some hair out of her face. He traced her face gently making sure not to wake her up. He could picture her. She was beautiful and adorable. He wished he could actually see her.
Iggy thought for a second. He bit his lip. He bent down and kissed Ella. He missed and kissed the side of Ella's mouth. Ella laughed a little.
"You missed." She smiled as she took Iggy's face in her hands and kissed him. He kissed her back. They broke apart and Ella smiled while Iggy blushed.
"Um…I should go." Iggy smiled as he got up and walked to the door. He looked over at Ella.
"Yeah, so see you at breakfast?" Ella asked.
"Sure." He smiled and walked out the door. He closed the door and saw Nudge staring at him.
"Do I want to know why you walked out of Ella's room blushing?" Nudge asked.
"No." Iggy said walking to the living room with Nudge. "Oh, don't tell Max." Iggy said as they both entered the living room.
"Sure thing, Ig." Nudge raised her eyebrows and walked into the kitchen to get some chocolate milk. Iggy sat down on the couch and sighed trying to stop blushing. Which really did not work at all!
So I hope you like it :)
