Chapter 2

I slowly sat up, a little dizzy from the blood lose. I touched my arm, the injured one. It was wet, the color was red. Blood. I sighed. Why am I the one who always ends up hurt and broken? Fang never had a reason to cut himself, therefore he didn't. He was perfect. I couldn't stop thinking that.

"You awake?" An innocent voice said. Angel.

"Yeah, how long was I out?" I said hoping I was only in here for like 20 minutes.

"A couple hours. You have to stop doing this over Max. Everything will turn out how its suppose to." She said while patting my arm. My arm still hurt.

"Ok how did you know this was about Max? Oh right, never mind. I'm the right person for her?" I asked looking away.

"Iggy, I don't know all the answers, ok?" Just then a knock was at the door. Angel smiled and opened the door.

"Hey Ig, are you ok?" A voice said stepping in. Max.

I sat up straight. "Yeah". I said lying.

"Angel can you go away for a sec sweetheart?" Max said looking hopeful.

"I'll find out about it later, duh." She sighed. "But fine." She walked out.

"Why are you doing this to yourself? Just because I said I didn't like you. I didn't want to lie." She sat down.

"You don't get it. If you don't feel the same way about me, then I can't live. I'll kill myself! I live for one reason. And it's for you Max" I was looking into her eyes. I think. I was holding her shoulders.

"I guess I don't get it. That's the way I feel about," She paused. "Fang." It took my breath away. She didn't like me at all. The kiss meant nothing. I stood up quickly grabbing a White Shirt and a belt. I put them on then grabbed a bag. I stuffed some cloths and some explosives and put the bag on my back.

"I'm out of the flock. Tell Gaz, Nudge, and Angel I'm sorry." I said while pulling the window open.

"What? No! Why? I mean come on, Please! No one wants you to go! You're important to the team Please!"

"Max, I get hurt too much, Gaz is the only one who wants me to stay and I'm not important." I said; almost forgetting the Liter and my Teasers.

"What about me and Fang?" She asked quietly.

"What about you two?" I hissed.

"You told the other three sorry but what about me and Fang?" She said still quiet.

"Fang can be a lucky son of a beep the rest of his life." I started. "The last thing I'm going to say to you, with all of my heart- all of it- is, I love you Maximum Ride." I said then turned around and spread my wings out. I jumped out the window. I felt something warm and rough start bringing me down. Arms wrapped around my chest. I tucked my wings in quickly to turn and face the force. Then whipped my wings back out pushed down hard just barley able to left the force. I heard sobbing. It was Max. For her safety I landed on the roof.

I pulled my wings in. She went to her knees. Holding her head with her arms looking down. Wait. I saw her! Barely but still! I lifted her up and hugged her. Tightly I never wanted to let go. She was holding me just as tightly. I buried my nose in her hair loving every scent. My eyes went back to not seeing at all but that's fine; I was holding the love of my life. She pulled back. I could feel her staring up at me. I looked down. I put my hand to her cheeks. They were wet. I sighed.

"Iggy, Please don't go!" I could hear her sadness in that.

"Max if you say three words I will stay." I said.

"I can't."

I turned. She flipped me back around and her lips pressed against mine. My mind was about to explode. Her lips were so soft and warm. The best thing ever. And what's best about it is She Kissed ME! I was in haven.

Still Sobbing. "I love you Iggy, Please stay with me and the flock forever."

"I love you too Max; I was never going to leave." I wouldn't be able too.
