CHAPTER 7
Max P.O.V
Fang had started closing the gap between us further; I could feel his breath tickling my face. I put my arms around his neck so to get closer, I wanted this for so long and now it appears he wants it too, either that or he's just feeling sorry for me. I couldn't do this could I? No don't spoil the moment Max! This could be my last chance or the start of something amazing. Our lips brushed together and Fang tilted his head just a little, and our lips connected again sending an electric shock around my body. Our lips were moving flawlessly in sync, trying to get even closer. His tongue ran across the edge of my lips I let it in teasingly slowly and I could feel a smile stretch across his lips, he held me closer his hands finding their way up my back.
"Oh Fang" escaped my mouth it would have been barely audible if we hadn't been this close together, and I instantly felt my cheeks heat up as he pressed his lips further and more passionately into mine. His tongue entered my mouth again and as they passed I'm sure I felt an electric shock come off of him. I ran my fingers through his sleek black hair and purposefully getting them tangled up while Fang's hands were making their way towards my sides. Our kisses slowed and became less hungry and soon we were resting our foreheads together breathing heavily. I flickered my eyes up to meet Fang's gaze, I slid my head down onto his shoulder and he kissed my neck before hugging me closer still. I didn't want to let go but I had no idea how long we had been together on our own so I released my hold on him. Our arms hung loosely around each other; we were both smiling, still breathing quite deeply. I turned slightly looking up the stairs leading to my bedroom and looked back at Fang; he seemed to understand that we had to go up to my room.
I took one step towards my steps and it was as if someone had shone a bright light in my eyes and my head started throbbing so painfully I had to squeeze my eyes hard shut. I gripped what could have been Fangs shoulder; I let go not wanting to hurt him and battling against the pain.
"What's up? Max?" Asked Fang worriedly as I staggered backwards clutching my head as images flashed across my vision, I couldn't make out what they were or who were in them. I crashed into the wall behind me and I slid down it so I was sat on the floor my knees up against my chest, resting my head on them. The pain had now become excruciating it was like someone was drilling a hole in the back of it or something, I prized my eyes open to see Fang falling to his knees beside me. He pulled me gently onto his lap and rocked slightly, I was still clutching my head. I heard a door creak and the sound of feet running getting louder until there was a minor crash.
"Max!" It was Gazzy's voice and he was pulling my arm slightly
"Gaz?" I asked trying to sound like it was all normal but the pain surged back again and I buried my head into Fangs neck
"Max what's up?" He asked a hint of worry in his voice
"Nothing... nothing I'm fine" I tried reassuring him with my eyes seemingly welded shut. I could tell he didn't believe me and he tries hard to be strong bless him, I prized my eyes open once again and lifted my head – which felt like it weighed a ton! – So I could see my little brother clearly. His blonde hair and blue eyes were the only features recognisable in the dark, it struck me at that moment how alike Angel and he looked – scary.
"See fine..." I croaked pain filling my head again but I fought against, he gave me a worried look but got up all the same.
"You're stubborn" He whispered as I pulled him into a hug
"Shut up and get to bed!" I said pushing him slightly and he pretended to look hurt but wandered off; I watched him over Fangs shoulder looking back every so often until he reached his bedroom and walked in.
"Max?" Asked Fang looking at me anxiously, I tried getting up but the room started to spin and I started falling back down Fang caught me before I fell on him. Someone was drilling a hole in the back of my head again and I squeezed my eyes tight and the pictures flashed up again more clearly this time. I could make out the face of a man before they flew away again I think it was my dad, I can't be sure I hadn't seen him in years. A tear welled up behind my eyelid as I remembered that last time I saw my dad.
(Flashback)
I ran as fast as I could up the drive of our house. I had just seen my dad's car drive by he hadn't changed it since I last saw him which had to be about six months ago. My friends thought my family was weird, and took pity on me because my dad wasn't around a lot. I didn't mind, to me this was normal waiting next to the phone, every ring could be my dad but usually it wasn't I could hope though and I did. One night last week I was in luck I picked up the phone and it was dad! I was so excited it was unbelievable I hadn't slept since that call it was almost like Christmas night for me. I had crossed the days off until today, today was marked with a big circle on my calendar with 'DAD'S COMING' written inside it surrounded by literally hundreds of exclamation marks.
Only the last little bit of the drive and I'd be back with my dad again. Our last encounter had been painfully short he was there for just two hours! My legs were hurting from the biting wind pushing against them as I ran faster than I had ever ran before. If only my athletics teacher could see me now, how proud would she be? Very I'm guessing but first things first Dad. A week had been too long; six months had been even longer. The door was within arm's reach now I launched myself at the handle yanking it open as fast as I could, my hair whipping around my face as I stood looking into an empty house. My shoulders sank they had to be kidding me. What was wrong with me? What's so wrong with me that he didn't want to see me?
I threw my bag down and it skidded along the polished wooden floor and someone stopped it from going any further, I couldn't see who it was for the shadows but I ignored it I had some crying to do. I shrugged and wandered off towards the stairs, someone grabbed my arm and I instantly turned around and got out of their hold and twisted their arm around their back so one point to me.
"Maximum you're late" They said in a sing song way
"What do you mean late?" I growled pulling her arm further around her back, Ella, she could be nice, she could be understanding but underneath it all she was evil, constantly making my life a misery. Everything would be my fault, and I actually believed it was I said sorry and carried on being the eldest and stay out of the way.
"I mean your precious father has left because you were late" She said sweetly
"He wouldn't! He knew how much this meant to me!" I shouted just as the front door opened and light flooded in except for a giant long shadow. I dropped Ella quickly and her being the drama queen she was laid on the floor as if in pain. Ugh I'd sort her out later, she annoyed me so much how she had the whole family wrapped around her finger what she said usually goes.
"Max?" It was my dad's voice I grinned looking down at Ella and smiled innocently at her before running the little way to the door
"Dad!" I shouted happily and he looked at me then looked behind me at Ella who was still crumpled up on the floor, I looked up at his face. His usual placid face had turned a bright furious red shade.
"What have you done?" He roared, even he had a soft spot for Ella?
"Nothing" I squeaked as he pushed me out of the way and lifted Ella to her feet, she tried to look shaken as if I had beaten her up but I could see right through her little act. She started sniffling then started crying, I rolled my eyes how many times had I seen her pull this one? Too many times! I folded my arms trying to look like I didn't care I didn't care much for her but the fact she was spending time with my dad when I should be! That I cared about and she knew it.
"She pulled my arm and nearly broke it!" She whimpered
"Oh you poor thing. Max say sorry!" He demanded hugging Ella
"No" I said giving her my signature death glare.
"What?"
"I. Said. No!" I repeated
"Max come on its one word" He said almost begging
"There's one thing to say it and there's another to mean it" Cut in Ella her tears suspiciously absent.
"Max come on"
"No you can't make me" I growled pulling my dad's arm trying to get him away from her
"Let go Max!" He shouted angrily pulling his arm away but hitting me around my face, I staggered backwards away from him. I held my face where he had hit me, his red face softened and turned back to its normal pale colour. He stood up and walked to me but I ran past him and pushed Ella over before running up the stairs tears streaming down my face. I looked around for somewhere to go; I took a right and ran down the hallway to my bedroom. Nudge hadn't come home yet she was out somewhere helping out at the local hairdresser, she went there most afternoons just somewhere to hang out and help around the shop. I jumped into her room and rolled underneath her bed I could just see the door from the floor.
"Max?" Called my dad softly his head peering around the door "Max I'm sorry"
"Go Away!" I shouted
"Max, please..." He begged looking at me; I shuffled so I was laid on my side, my back against the wall and my knees up touching my chin. I shook my head just a little; he sighed and laid on his stomach his head resting on his arms.
"Max I have something to tell you... You won't see me for a long time and you should know I do still love you ok?" I nodded it can't be as long as the last time he said that "It'll be longer than last time I'm sorry" great. He got up as I started crawling out from under the bed. As I stood up he picked me up and hugged me tightly, before setting me down and kissing my head then leaving the room. I stood there for a few minutes just watching the door waiting for him to leap back in and tell me it was all a joke and everything would be ok and he was staying with us. But to my disappointment he didn't and I walked out to the top of the stairs one hand on the railing looking down at my dad walking out of the door. Ella looked up at me and grinned evilly.
"Well done" I snarled walking through the front door and watched my dad leave, this was even shorter than last time now I don't know when the next time I'd see him would be...
(End flashback)
"Fang" I whispered the pain subsiding from my head, the pictures disappearing and I opened my eyes more easily. He looked down into my eyes again apprehension filling them wholly.
"Max?" He answered as I lost myself in the mysteriousness of his eyes again; I blinked a couple of times then shook my head smiling.
"Help us up" I kissed his cheek 'cheekily' and tried getting up. Fang stood up and put his arm around me and I put my arm around his shoulders and he helped me up. We walked slowly towards my stairs and stopped at the bottom looking up. Fang looked behind me and I turned to see my mum and Ella climbing the stairs as if she had some sort of terminal disease. I looked up at Fang hating him just a little bit for pointing them out but I hugged him crying into his shirt again.
"Oh look can't find a boyfriend on her own, has to hit on the ones already taken" Sneered Ella I had never cried in front of her or anyone (except Fang)ever. I let go of him wiping my eyes and turned to look at her.
"YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME! NOTHING! YOU HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT MINE AND FANGS RELATIONSHIP!" I screamed, I actually had no idea about of our relationship are we just friends? More?
"Touchy" I gave her my best death glare as my mum tried to drag Ella away and I just stomped up the stairs with Fang close behind me. I stopped a few steps before the door and hugged Fang again tears streaming down my face staining his shirt again. I buried my face into his chest breathing deeply taking in his familiar comforting scent.
"Max? Come on lets go in I can hear them behind the door" He whispered right into my ear
"Ok..." I sniffed lifting my head out of him and looking at his tear soaked shirt "Sorry" I mumbled
"It's ok" He said pulling the door open and pulling me through.
