Disclaimer: I do not own Max ride.
Fang POV
During the entire movie, Max didn't even glance at me once. Angel kept sending me reassuring thoughts but I couldn't help but be skeptical. Lissa had her hand intertwined with mine and her head on my shoulder. Soon the movie came to an end and max stood up and stretched, yawning.
"Well that was boring." Iggy remarked, knowing that Lissa was the one who chose it, but she ignored him.
Angel had fallen asleep on the blanket that was spread on the floor, Gazzy was halfway asleep and Nudge was on her laptop, which she ran and got ten minutes into the movie.
"Ok guys, An-I mean Mom, has to work late tonight, so I'm in charge. Get your butts in bed." Max ordered.
"Gladly." Iggy said dragging himself out of his seat and up the stairs Gazzy in suit.
Nudge shut her laptop down and placed it on the desk in the corner, then followed Gazzy and Iggy upstairs.
Max sighed and gently lifted Angel into her arms, "G'night Nick." Max whispered so as to not wake Angel, completely ignoring Lissa who had been shooting Max death glares throughout the movie. She walked up the stairs and soon I was left alone with Lissa.
"Didn't you like that movie Nick?" Lissa asked smiling at me. I nodded not saying anything, thinking that I'd dump her tomorrow during school so that Max would hear about it throughout the gossip line.
"Liss, it's late you should get home." I told her, she nodded.
"Yeah we've got school tomorrow anyway. I'll be by tomorrow before the party." She said standing. She leaned back down to give me a good night kiss and I couldn't help but think: This is so damn disgusting.
I mean it didn't feel right kissing someone who wasn't Max not to be mean to Lissa or anything.
"Yeah sure." I said, I walked her to the front door and watched as she walked down the driveway, then I closed the front door and locked it. Sighing I turned off the lights and headed to bed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning I grudgingly dragged myself out of my bed and to the bathroom. I walked out of the bathroom door twenty minutes later and accidentally rammed into Max who was showered and dressed in her school uniform and was walking down to breakfast.
"Sorry Fnick." She snickered upon seeing my annoyed and grudging face. "Breakfast is ready, you should get going or you're gonna be late." She said and she walked down the hall. I rolled my eyes and then realized I was in a towel, I scurried into my room and pulled on my stupid uniform, hanging my tie loosely around my neck and shaking my head to mess up my hair. I pulled on my sneakers and I grabbed my backpack. I sprinted down the stairs and skidded into the kitchen. Iggy was already up and making breakfast, Anne was nowhere in sight, Angel was talking to Total about something Nudge was rambling about grape juice and how it doesn't taste like grapes to a very unhappy looking Gazzy and Max was arguing with someone on her cell phone.
"JJ no, I don't want him to ask me to be his girlfriend. I don't wanna go to his retarded party and I sure as heck don't want to be caught dead in any form of dress, skirt or high heels." Max was saying. Nudge and Angel turned to look at her, scrambling out of their seats to try and put their ears next to her phone, while she unsuccessfully tried to shove them away. I snickered quietly as I sat down and Max shot me the bird.
I rolled my eyes.
"You know what? Fine! I'll go to the stupid party, but don't expect me to be in a good mood." Max said sighing before snapping her phone shut and running hands through her open hair, she looked hot doing that I thought, and Angel giggled. I glared at her.
'Not. A. Word. Angel.' I thought angrily. She only giggled some more.
"What's for breakfast Ig?" I asked, getting up to poor some juice.
"Pancakes, Bacon, scrambled eggs, toast, hash browns, and home style fries." I nodded.
I sat back down. "Look who's up." Max said leaning back in her chair and grinning at me. I rolled my eyes,
"Good morning to you too Max." I said sarcastically and she grinned again.
"So, how's life?" She said.
I shrugged, "Pretty good, considering we're kids with wings, and we have bloodthirsty wolves and psycho scientists chasing after us. Add that to the fact that our 'mom' might be evil and we have an absolutely perfect life." I said.
Max smiled and shook her head, "Yeah, Anne does have that crazy scientist vibe doesn't she?"
I nodded, "Yup. So you're going to that kid's birthday party?" I asked nonchalantly.
Max groaned, "Don't remind me. JJ, Angel, and Nudge are going to stick me in a dress and heels they even have Ella in on it and she's in Arizona! If I trip and fall, breaking my neck in the process it'll be on their consciences and yours too."
I laughed, "Why me?"
"You could save me, by doing…something!" She pouted cutely and Angel giggled again.
I raised an eyebrow, "Something?"
Max laughed and whapped me over the head, "Yes, something, anything to save me from the torture."
I laughed again, savoring the fact that this was the first time in a long time I actually spoke and hung out with my best friend.
Then my phone rang.
I pulled it out of my pocket, and answered, "Hello?"
"Nick!" Lissa's screechy voice greeted me.
"Hi Lissa." I said, watching as Max's eyes darkened and she stood up to help Iggy with setting the table.
"Hey so for tonight you wear a tux and I'm going to wear like a pale blue gown okay?" She said speaking quickly.
"Uh-huh." I interpreted 'gown' to be super short dress that looks like it could be a shirt.
"Okay then bye!" She said and the line went dead.
I closed my phone and tucked it back into my pocket. Max sat back down after everyone was served.
Breakfast passed without another word.
A/N I know it's short but I'm trying to update all my other stories too. Tell me if you like it. Next chapter will be school and the party, so…it should be some what long.
