Last Chapter:I sighed and fell asleep feeling safe in Fang's arms.
Fang's POV
I woke up and looked down at my arms and looked at the beautiful woman sleeping in them. She looked so beautiful sleeping, her angelic face, the silky feel of her hair, the way she fit perfectly into my arms. I could go on forever listing all the things I liked about her but there would be no end to it. She looked so peaceful and I wish she was like this when she was awake too. I regretted having been such an ass yesterday and having made her cry. I stroked her cheek and she flinched. She opened her eyes and frantically moved her eyes around the room and finally they rested on me. Her body tensed but then relaxed and she gave a tiny smile.
"How're you feeling?" I asked her stroking her cheek.
"Mmmm good." She said nuzzling her face in my hand. I pulled her up and hugged her against my chest. We sat there for a couple of minutes with her resting against my chest. She rubbed her hands over my arms and she started fiddling with my fingers.
"You have really smooth hands, you know that?" She said turning around and grinning at me. I laughed quietly and I turned her face towards me and kissed her gently on the lips. I felt her hands against my chest almost trying to push me away. I let her go reluctantly missing the warmth of her mouth instantly.
"What's wrong?" I said confused. She didn't say anything, she didn't even look up at me.
"Max did I hurt you?" I asked her worried that I might have. I looked at her physical appearance and she seemed fine so what was wrong with her.
"No Fang you didn't it's just that I-." She looked down at her hands and I noticed she was wringing her fingers nervously
"Max tell me, what is it?" She looked up at me and I noticed her eyes were glistening with unshed tears. I started to panic. What had I done to her? Did I hurt her? I looked her over again but nothing seemed to be hurting.
"Max come on talk to me, what's wrong." She looked up at me and it broke my heart to see her like this on the brink of tears.
"It's just that I'm confused about this, you, us." Her voice broke towards the end. "Yesterday when you kissed me I really liked it but I don't how you feel. Fang I want you to be truth full with me. I don't want to be your little play thing, I don't think I'd be able to take that." I didn't know what to say to that. I wish I would've known she was feeling this way earlier.
"Max you're not, I would never see you as a play thing, I care too much about you to do that." I said pulling her into my arms and hugging her. She wrapped her arms around me and she nuzzled her face in my chest.
Max POV
I nuzzled my face in his chest feeling a little relieved after him telling me he wasn't just playing around with me and my feelings. I looked up at him and smiled. I still had my doubts though, if it wasn't just hormones why had he kissed me. He nuzzled his face against my neck and I felt his warm breath and it sent shivers down my spine. It also made me completely loose track of what I was thinking about unfortunately.
"Fang stop." I said. I didn't like being distracted and not completely in control of myself.
"Stop what, this?" He said amused. He kissed the crook of my neck lightely and it made me loose all coherent thought. I hated the control that he was having over me right now. How was it that a simple one of his kisses could be making me act like this.
"Fang no!" I half yelled half squeaked as I felt his teeth biting into my skin. I turned to jelly in his arms and surrendered to his caresses. I was infuriated at how he was controlling me but at the same time I enjoyed it. I started to feel scared. No one had ever been able to control me not at the school, not even Jeb and here I was being done just that by Fang. I felt so vulnerable, this was a feeling that was completely new to me and it frightened me. I pushed him away and stood up off the bed. I was shaking on the spot completely confused. I hadn't wanted to push him away but I felt vulnerable around him and it was something that I couldn't get used to.
"Max what's your problem seriously?" He asked me with a confused and almost pained expression on his face.
"You don't like it when I don't show any emotion and when I do you go ballistic and push me away." He said with a frustrated tone in his voice.
"This isn't the kind of emotion I want, not now. I can't be distracted I have the flock to take care of." I said in mock defense.
"You can't be distracted or you won't allow yourself to be?" I didn't know what to say to that. I didn't want to tell him the real reason that I felt scared and vulnerable not being able to control myself in his arms. The way he had complete control over me when he kissed me and when he touched me.
"I don't know how to." I whispered.
"Let me teach you." He said. For a fleeting moment I felt like I could let him.
"No, I'm just not ready for it." I said wiping angry tears away from my eyes with the back of my hand. He stood up standing in front of me. He took my chin with his fingers and raised my face so I would look at him. My chin quivered in his hold. I didn't want to cry.
"You're not telling me the whole truth are you, I can see it in your eyes. Why won't you trust me?" I could tell he was hurt by how I was acting and in turn it hurt me to see him like this.
"Fang you're the person that I trust the most in this world but-." I said my voice breaking.
"But what Max? Come on tell me the truth." Looking into his eyes I almost did but I looked away before I made that mistake.
"I just can't Fang I'm not ready." I said looking down at the floor.
"Ok, I won't make you tell me because sooner or later you're gonna want this." He said referring to himself and smirking at me. I looked opened mouthed at him not believing what he had just said and blushed a deep red.
"I'm always right." He whispered in my ear.
Ok I'm going to leave it here. Please review don't be lazy. lol
