(A/N: Ow. Dramit. My knee hurts.

(Its really youre own fault, Megan, not to act like Ice Queeny over here.)

-Grumbling- Alex, quiet... it hurts. Really. -Eyes tear up-

(Alex! Why would you say that. Its my job to make her cry. And just because youre ticked off Lady Gaga shot you down, dont take it out on her. -Hugging Me-)

...-Shiver- he asked Lady Gaga out? What the help? Alex... yknow what, forget it. Lets get on with the oneshot... Creepy kid...

Disclaimo: Wait! Why do I even need one of these? Its a fan site, this is what its for! -Lillith glares at me- Grr. I dont own Max Ride. Or Fang. Or Family Force Five and their song Love Addict.

Dramit.)


Dance Like No One is Watching (Fang POV)

I stared apathetically at the wall. I didnt feel the slightest bit tired. Yep, it was definitely going to be a long night...

Should I explain?

Gazzy and Iggy decided it would be hilarious to set off a stink bomb in my room. What they failed to account for was the fact that it wasnt a stink bomb. It was a real one.

I now have a hole in the roof representing what once was, and I have to sleep on the concrete floor, because last week they blew up our only couch...

Sigh.

Also, considering it was New Years Day, and we had stayed up ridiculously late last night, I wouldnt be able to sleep anyway until 5, probably. (A/N Story of my life. Its actually why Im writing right now)

I glanced at the clock: 2 A.M.

I could vaguely hear someone... talking I guess? I should probably tell them to quit it and go back to sleep.

"I have nothing else to do..." I grumbled to myself, getting up and heading down the hall towards everyones bedrooms. I checked Iggy and Gazzys door; not coming from there. Nudge and Angel werent the culprits, either. I knew it wasn't Jeb. He might be crazy and annoying but I dont think he talks to himself. But I wasnt imagining this. Why would Max be making any noise at this time of night? She was always especially quiet so she didnt wake anyone else.

I walked cautiously over to her door, convinced she was either being attacked or having those terrible nightmares again. It was cracked a bit, so I peered inside.

Oh my god.

A grin quickly grew on my face. What? Im a hormonal teenage boy... Oh, right, you dont know what I saw.

Max was in her PJs, and standing on her bed. Quietly singing, if you can sing that kind of thing quietly, she was dancing around like a lunatic. But I wasnt grinning because of this, though that was pretty entertaining; I was smiling because I knew what song she was singing.

I remember it like it was yesterday... oh. It was.

(Flashback... yesterday, everyone but Max and Fang went on a picnic with Jeb.)

I tapped my fingers on the desk I was sitting at, absentmindedly wondering what to do. We had gotten our internet up and running again, by some miracle, and it was my turn to use it.

As I looked around the room I saw a bright orange stickynote. In pretty terrible handwriting, probably gazzy dictating for Iggy, judging by what was written, it said: "Family Force Five - Love Addict."

Weird...

I sighed. I really didnt care about this computer, its not as if I had a blog or anything. Time for some random crap.

Taking the stickynote off the wooden surface, I typed what was on it into Google. Praise Google. Worship it...

Err. Anyway. Apparently it was a song. We never really paid attention to trends, except for Nudge and her clothes, so it was odd that Iggy would know about this. Maybe he heard it on TV.

I decided to play the song, using Project Playlist because I thought YouTube was idiotic and for people who thought their drama was actually important to half the world.

(I believe YouTube is overrun by idiots posting random shiz so they can be fawned over by other idiots just like them. Only a few people on there, from what I can see, have a right to post their stuff, because its actually funny/cool. Sometimes YouTube helps people get noticed, true, but honestly, half of it is complete and utter crap. Sorry. Continue reading)

"Hold up! Wait a minute, put a little love in it!

(Yeah!) Doctor I, doctor I--Ive got an emergency, it seems Im head over heels, a case of L-O-V-E! Its like Im glowing inside, yeah, a light I cant hide, and if this feeling is bad then I dont--want to be right! What Ive got in my soul gives me the--highest delight. Yeah, its better than drugs, in fact, its sin from above... (Huh huh)

Hold up! Wait a minute! Put a little love in it!

(Hey!) Cant kick the habit! (Yeah?) Ive got to have it! (Yeah?) Im what they call a love addict, love addict! (Hey!) Cant live without it! (Yeah?) No doubt about it! (Hey!) Im a symptomatic! Love addict, love addict!

Need a refill cus I just--cant get enough. Ive got a fever, oh yeah, and the--prescriptions love. So lay the truth down on me, cus that is all that I need. (Huh huh)

Hold up, wait a minute, put a little love in it!

(Hey!) Cant kick the habit! (Yeah?) Ive got to have it! (Yeah?) Im what they call a love addict, love addict! (Hey!) Cant live without it! (Yeah?) Go shout about it! (Hey!) Im a symptomatic love addict, love addict!

Im blessed, I must confess. My heart is pounding in my chest. Cus this loves the best. Im just a love addict...

Coming down with something outrageous. Look out now cause it so contagious. This feelings got me reeling, so amped up that I hit the ceiling. Gotta clear my throat. (Huh huh,) Now I gotta have some more!" (Love Addict - Family Force Five)

My eyes were wide with shock, Im sure, and I heard someone laughing when I finally came back to my body. That song was so... loud. Violent. Strange.

I officially love music.

"Hey, Fang, you a love addict?" Max said, laughing full out now, her face turning red. I glared at her jokingly.

"Yes. Whats it to you?" When she started laughing again I decided to take revenge and began tickling her.

End Flashback

I watched in amazment for another five minutes as she danced to the song I was sure was going through her head. She was actually a really good dancer. she could definitely do the choreography for those stupid dance shows better than the actual people whose job it was to do that.

All of a sudden, Max came over and opened the door all the way, pulling me inside.

"Im a symptomatic love addict, love addict!" She sang, pushing me against the door. My eyes widened for the second time in two days, unfortunately. She had me pinned, and was it just me, or was her face getting closer to mine by the second. Just as she put her forehead against mine and her eyelashes were brushing my cheeks, she backed away and positioned herself on the ground, on one knee, her face towards the floor.

"Im blessed, I must confess," her head shot up, looking at me. "My heart is pounding in my chest," she brought her hands, fisted, over said organ and pantomimed it thumping. "Cus this loves the best, Im just a love addict..." she sighed, coming back toward me.

"Whats up?" She said nonchalantly, as if she hadnt just given me a show and stirred up my very undecided feelings about her. I shrugged. She rolled her eyes. "Peeping Tom." I was about to protest. "All right, I wasnt doing anything private, but youre still a Creeper." She smirked.

"Yeah yeah, keep talking. Dance like no ones watching, you Love Addict." She smiled and quickly, as if it was any longer I would push her away or something, pecked me on the lips. It left me wanting more, but she just shoved me out of her room.

I groaned and put my hands in my head. "See? Im not the love addict. You want it more than I do." I could almost hear her sticking her tongue out at me, and I smiled.

"Gnite, Dancer."


(A/N As so many of my one shots do, this one spiraled completely off course of what I meant it to be. For anyone whos interested, or any stalker I might have, I have actually done this dance. I made it up myself. I know it probably doesnt sound very impressive, and I guess it isnt, considering it was random and I was dancing around last night at 2 am, effectively sleep drunk, but the whole thing looks pretty cool to me. :P

I think this was one of the less important oneshots in this collection.

Info: Set before TAE and before Jeb left. Doesnt really coincide with the relationship status of Max and Fang, I know, but I was sick of a flirty Fang and no dominant Max. Max is the leader. Sheesh.

Tell me what you thought.

Hope you enjoyed, and thank you for reading -Megan)
