Disclaimer: Unfortunately I do not own Maximum Ride. And as much as I wish I did, I never will. Ultraviolet is by Alexz Johnson, My Heart is by Paramore, and Deeper is by Alexz Johnson as well. Now on with the story!
This Maximum Ride
Chapter 15 – Max POV
It turns out that writing 'Just Dance' had exhausted everyone but me. And, well, Fang too. He was pretending to sleep beside me on the pullout couch. Since we didn't have any hotels booked on the way back, we had no other choice but to keep driving and sleep on the bus.
All of us were fine with that. I just couldn't sleep. In some ways I was depressed but I wasn't paying attention to those details of my life.
No, I was focusing on my feelings for Fang. I needed at least one sappy-ish song to be put on this album. And Jude knew how deeply I felt for Fang and that those feelings would not change on tour.
I put the pen to the page and my hand had a mind of it's own.
Everybody knows the truth
Everybody sees right through
There's no escaping what you do
Do to me, do to me
I swear that you're just sinking in
Like a stain that's on my skin
I try to fight
But I won't win anyhow
It's too late for me now, 'cause
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn, but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot
Heading for the sun
I don't want what's good for me
I don't need a remedy
No one's gonna rescue me
From myself
I don't care if it hurts my eyes
I'll stare until I'm going blind
You can hate me
I don't mind anymore
'Cause I know you're cure and
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn, but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot
Heading for the sun
For the sun
For the sun
For the sun
And I'm addicted, I can't break free,
You won't resist it,
So don't make me move out from the afterglow
Oh
Your love's like ultraviolet
Your love's like ultraviolet
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn, but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot
Heading for the sun
Your love's like ultraviolet
I can feel it burn, but I like it, yeah
I'm on autopilot
Heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Heading for the sun
Fang was like air to me, he was my rock, and that's how inspiration managed to strike me, the type that could only happen when thinking of Fang. Before I even knew what was happening, I had turned to the next page of my journal and started writing a new song.
I am finding out that maybe I was wrong
That I've fallen down and I can't do this alone
Stay with me, this is what I need, please?
Sing us a song and we'll sing it back to you
We could sing our own but what would it be without you?
I am nothing now and it's been so long
Since I've heard a sound, the sound of my only hope
This time I will be listening.
Sing us a song and we'll sing it back to you
We could sing our own but what would it be without you?
This heart, it beats, beats for only you
This heart, it beats, beats for only you
This heart, it beats, beats for only you
My heart is yours
This heart, it beats, beats for only you
My heart is yours
(My heart, it beats for you)
This heart, it beats, beats for only you
(It beats, beats for only you. My heart is yours)
My heart, my heart is yours
(Please don't go now, Please don't fade away)
My heart, my heart is yours
(Please don't go now, Please don't fade away)
My heart is yours
My heart is yours
(Please don't go now, Please don't fade away)
My heart is yours
My heart is...
My heart really only beats for Fang, like it does until the day I die.
I found out that thinking about what has happened between Fang and I was awesome inspiration to keep writing songs. As I thought about this I flipped to the next page.
If we don't talk that's okay
'Cause I hear everything that you say
You got my heart tuned into you
A hold this hurt inside
It shows and you can't hide
But if we open up we'll break through
You and I go deeper
Down below where no one sees it
When you close your eyes and just believe it
You and I go deeper
Where everything's unspoken
And the world seems so wide open to me now
You got broken once before
Closed your heart up
And said no more
We were trying not to fall
Afraid of letting go
Wait until we know now
You and I go deeper
Down below where no one sees it
When you close your eyes and just believe it
You and I go deeper
Where everything's unspoken
And the world seems so wide open to me now
And the morning shines much brighter to me
Somehow, somehow, yeah
Maybe this can last forever
If we thought, know what we feel
And you love me like I know you will
You and I go deeper
Down below where no one sees it
When you close your eyes and just believe it
You and I go deeper
Where everything's unspoken
And the world seems so wide open to me
You and I go deeper
Down below where no one sees it
When you close your eyes and just believe it
You and I go deeper
Where everything's unspoken
And the world seems so wide open to me now
I was thinking fully of my love for Fang and nothing else throughout my writing. He was the perfect inspiration for writing songs out of absolutely nowhere.
When I looked over to the clock I was surprised to figure out that I had written those three songs in under an hour.
I smiled to myself, I really do love Fang. Although I already knew that.
"What are you smiling about?" A voice asked from beside me. Fang. He was still lying right next to me.
"Nothing much. But I just wrote three songs in under an hour. I think that's a new record." I said.
"What're they about?" Fang asked with no evidence of sleep in his voice. He must have stayed awake this whole time.
"You." I answered simply.
"Can I see?" I handed him my journal and waited while he read over my work. I couldn't see his face while he read, considering he was holding the pages up to his face to read in the low light. But when he put the journal down his face was filled with nothing but love. He didn't have to say it, I could see it in every single part of him.
Without thinking I threw myself on top of him and kissed him with as much passion as I possibly could. Our bodies moved together and our tongues battled for dominance, but I knew we had to stop this before it went to far.
Fang was the one who pulled away first, reading my mind. "We really should stop. If we go any further I'm not going to be able to stop."
"Same here." I said but didn't move from my position. Damn kids. I wish we were back home so we could do what we wanted to. And I hope Angel didn't hear that.
I sighed and slid my body down Fang's, ignoring the hissing sound that came through his incredibly sexy lips, and rested my head on his chest. I think I knew how a drug addict feels when they're going through withdrawl. I felt exactly the same thing right about now, Fang was a drug for me in ways I've never really understood until now.
"Night Max." I heard faintly when I was bordering on the edge of conciousness.
"Night Fang." I attempted to say before I fell asleep in the arms of the man I would love for eternity.
I'm baaack. And I apologize for my 2 month absence. This story is officially..continued. I missed you guys.
The only reason I stuck three songs in this chapter is because I want to skip the recording process yet still post the lyrics in the story. And I added FAX, so that should make up for it. But the next chapter or two will probably also be similar. As of now there's 8 songs for Max's next album so I figure another 3-4 songs should suffice. This is pretty much where I ask for song suggestions. I have a few in mind but I could use some ideas.
So I wrote a story for Rainxface's Writing Challenge. I'll love you guys forever if you read and review it xP It's called 'Sharpie War' and you can find it in my profile.
I also started a C2 with some of my all-time favorite Maximum Ride stories in it so you can check that out as well if you want to. Or PM me some suggestions if I missed any stories.
The only other thing I want to say is...REVIEW. Your reviews always help me feel more inspired to write. I'll also send reviewers a quote from the next chapter as soon as I get that started.
