and now...on to the action!

He drew back, but didn't get far, as I had already started pulling him in for another kiss.

Max POV

Have I ever told you how much I love Fang? Have I ever told myself? Maybe I have, maybe I haven't, but I do love him. Everything about him is perfect…his eyes, his finely toned body, his lips…we were just sitting there, kissing each other, for what seemed like forever. He pulled back and laughed at the look I gave him, I was enjoying myself there.

"Max?"

"Hmm?" I was looking at the fire, trying not to fall asleep, he was rubbing my back in-between my wings and it was hypnotizing.

"I love you." I looked up at him then. He was looking at me, a worried expression on his face. If he thought that I didn't love him back he was mistaken. His expression changed to one of misery. "I knew you wouldn't feel the same way. I'm so sorry. I hope things won't be akwa-"I stopped him with my lips. I pushed him down onto the ground and kissed him harder. I felt him smile against my lips.

"So does this mean you love me?" Fang asked me after we broke apart for air.

"This means I love you so very much…so much that it hurts me."

He smiled and pulled me back on top of him. Before I knew it, he was laying on top of me, kissing me harder than he had ever before. He pulled away, and despite my every effort, a whimper of longing escaped my throat.

"The flock's coming back."

"Fine." I was still upset, I was really having fun.

When the flock landed they immediately ran over to where I sat by the fire next to Fang.

"Alright Fang, we have what we need to fix Max up. Where should we put it?"

"Let's just put it here, Gazzy, and we can get started on fixing Max up."

"Um, Fang, I don't like where this is going. What are you going to do?" I was getting worried; I didn't like the look on his face.

"We're just going to fix you up Max, don't worry."

"Hmm…somehow that doesn't make me feel any better." I said to Fang under my breath.

"Max, you need to go to sleep so we can make you better." My Angel said.

"I'm really not that bad off Angel, I think I'm just gonna stay up."

I saw Angel's eyes narrow at me, but it didn't do anything, so Fang walked over and started rubbing between my wings. I felt drowsy, and tried to keep my eyes open, but Fang won in the end and I fell asleep.

Last thing I saw/felt was Fang lifting my shirt off to see where I was wounded, then I blacked out.
