It's a short chapter but I hope you all enjoy it!
Chapter 15
It was dark already, somewhere around nine or ten. I hoped mom didn't go to sleep very early because I didn't want to bother her. I was still simmering from my conversation with Fang earlier and everyone had avoided talking with both me and Fang noticing our moods.
I sighed angrily and tried to push the whole situation into the back of my mind. I focused on the ground, trying to remember where the house was located. I followed my instincts and little by little I started recognizing a couple of places. After a bit of flying around and getting a couple of looks from the flock, I finally recognized the neighborhood, and finally the house. I swooped down into their backyard, landing under the huge tree in the corner of the yard.
I could see that they were still up. There were lights turned on inside and the TV was on in the living room. I remembered the last time I had been here, getting sedated, making a fool of myself, I remembered angrily recalling the slurred words I had uttered while under the anesthesia. I held my hands in tight fists, so tight that my knuckles were white. I needed to calm down I realized. I dug my thumb nail into my index finger, something that always seemed to relax me a little bit. I leaned against the tree for a couple seconds and relaxed my breathing. When I opened them I noticed the flock was giving me weird looks. I ignored them and didn't even glance at Fang.
I walked around to the front porch with the flock slowly following me close behind. I walked up to the door and hesitated a bit before reaching up and knocking on the door.
"I'll get it." I heard Ella say.
"It's ok I'll do it." I heard mom say. My heart started to pound. The door opened and we looked at each other.
"Oh my god, Max." Before I knew I was in her arms and I was hugging her back.
"Max!" I heard Ella yell and I felt another pair of arms circle my waist. After a minute of this mom pulled away and looked behind me.
"It's so nice to see you all, I was wondering if I would ever see any of you again." She said looking back at me with a fake frown on her face.
"Well Fang told Max we should come because Max was having all these headaches and she passed out the other day." Angel said before I could stop her. I looked at her scolding her with my eyes. Everything got suddenly quieter and I felt them all looking at me. I ran my hand through my hair feeling exasperated. I hadn't really been planning on telling her first thing we got here. I looked up at my mother and I noticed a worried look in her eyes.
"It's really no big deal." I said trying to break the awkward silence. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Fang look at me with a threatening expression in his eyes. I looked away a bit shamefully.
"Why don't we get inside, it's a little chilly out here." Mom said ushering us all in.
"Have you kids eaten yet?" She asked looking at all of us.
"Can we order pizza?" Gazzy asked.
"Sure what topping are you guys going to want?" They all followed her into the kitchen where the phone was except for Fang and me. I sat down and looked nowhere in particular, spacing out a bit. Fang walked into my line of vision snapping me out of my trance and sat down next to me.
"Were you even planning on saying anything to her?" He asked.
"Yes." I whispered.
"You can go ahead and fool them but I saw that look in your eyes when Angel said that to Ms. Martinez." He said not even looking at me.
"Don't pretend like you know me so well because you don't." I retorted.
He looked at me with a smirk on his face. He inched closer to me until I felt the heat emanating from his body warming my skin. His mouth was next to my ear now and his breath was sending shivers down my spine.
"I know you better than you think, for example I know what you like." He said moving on top of me and nuzzling my neck sending shivers down my back.
"Fang please don't do that." I said, feebly trying to push him away. He was right saying that I liked it but I couldn't help but feel like he had complete control over me and angry tears made their way down my face.
"Get off of her!" I heard my mom yell. Fang startled and quickly pulled away from me. His eyes widened caught as he was on top of me and tears streaming down my face. I wiped away at the tears on my cheeks hurriedly and pushed Fang off where he ungracefully landed on his backside.
"Ms. Martinez, really it's not what it look like." He said trying to defend himself.
"Well then why does Max have tears running down her face?" She asked him looking at me directing the question to me as well. I couldn't tell her, they couldn't know that I was afraid of control, how stupid would that sound to them. It made sense to me but they wouldn't understand.
Fang looked at me asking the same question with his eyes. All their questioning looks were overwhelming me and I did what first came to my mind, I ran out into the backyard and took off into the sky.
