Hey it's me again. So I decided to put another chapter up today! Yeah! Here ya go!
Ferris POV:
I walk into school the next day without Danielle, unfortunately for Danielle I accidently "forgot" to pick her up. That's what you get when you mess with Ferris Goldman; ugh I have to get my name changed if I'm going to say that more often. I dressed in my favorite pair of jeans from Pac Sun, a low purple tank top, black stilettos, and a big black leather purse.
To my satisfaction, Danielle stomps into school soaking wet fuming with anger. She walks right up to me and yells at me. Did I mention it was still raining out since yesterday, oops.
"What the hell, Ferris? I wait for you for a half an hour and then I realized you weren't coming. Of course my mom wasn't home and everyone else was at school, so guess what? I had to walk to school in the pouring rain in high heels! Do you have any idea how miserable that is?" She said, her face twisted up in rage, btw was not a very good look for her.
"Sorry forgot," I said and turned around and walked away. I could imagine her with a shocked face after giving her no sympathy, not that she needed it, and she deserved it. I feel a hand on my shoulder, I was spun around and facing Danielle again.
"That's it? Sorry? That's not going to work, you're going to pay to have this dry cleaner. You'll have to work to get my forgiveness. And FYI I doubt you forgot," she said and I completely lost it, so much for calm cool and collected.
"You're right Danielle, I didn't forget. Just like you didn't forget that Brian, that boy you were screwing, is my boyfriend! Yeah I found out, unfortunately for you Brian answered his phone accidently while you were hooking up. I heard you, you are unbelievable! We are no longer friends, Danielle so have fun walking to school and I want all my stuff back," I said and walked away. Just then Brian came over to me. That ****.
"Hey babe, what was that about?" he said and of course I slapped him. He retaliated and pushed me against the lockers.
"What the hell is your problem?" he asked while he restrained my hands. I started to get scared.
"Get out of my face, Brian! I know you're screwing Danielle! You accidently answered your phone when I called you last night and heard a lot of things. You two deserve each other, we're done!" I said. I was shocked enough that he loosened his grip and I escaped. And then I kneed him in the place that should never be kneed, but I was so necessary. He crumpled to the ground clutching his manhood. I stared up at me.
"You should ask Danielle to help with that, god knows she's done it before," I said and walked away. I decided to ditch. I walked out of school and started to drive to the one place that made me feel safe.
I grab my sneakers and emergency school ditching backpack (what I'm paranoid, sue me) out of the trunk of my car. About ten miles away from my town there's a bunch of mountains. In the range of mountains there's a cave above Lake Mead. This place is where I come to think a lot. For some reason it makes me feel safe, and it's the only thing I can remember from my past. And it's impossible to get to unless you have wings, which I have.
I fly up to the lip of the cave and tuck my wings next to my spine, leaving my back nice and toasty because it can get chilly up here, plus it's raining. I grab a change of clothes and lay down a blanket and sleeping bag. I take off my wet tank top when I hear a low voice say my name.
"Max? I mean Ferris. What are you doing here?" I turn around to see Fang on the lip of the cave. Then I realized I had no shirt on. I blushed furiously and quickly put on my dry t-shirt I packed.
"What am I doing here what are you doing here? Are you stalking me or something?" I asked mortified that a hot stranger just saw me topless.
"I always come here, to think," he said. His low voice falling over my ears like black velvet.
"Well so do I, I had a rough morning," I said thinking about this morning's little incident. I feel tears coming to my eyes.
"You want to talk about it?" he asked and I nodded.
"Maybe you should change into dry clothes, don't worry I won't look," I nod again and look for my jeans and quickly put them on.
"All set," I said he turned around.
"You look better in that then what you usually wear in school," he said smirking. I looked down all I was wearing was a pair of ripped jeans, a v neck concert t-shirt that sort of hugs my body, and my old pair of army green converse. Nothing special.
"Um thanks, I guess," I said and then sat down. He came and sat next to me.
"Sorry, about yesterday," he said.
"Oh its okay, it was sort of um, nice," I said feeling awkward.
"Uh thanks," he said and turned to look at me and gave me a half smile. This would make me go weak in the knees, if I wasn't sitting down.
"So, how's the Flock?" I asked.
"Sort of depressed from yesterday," he said with pain in his voice.
"Well, I bet Max will come back someday," I said putting my arm around him in comfort. He stiffened and I pulled away fast. Blushing, ugh stupid cheeks!
"Yeah," he said and then started looking at the hawks. They were beautiful.
"So, how did you find this place?" he asked. I looked at him; he turned and gave another half smile.
"Well, it all started with strawberries…
"And so when something happened we would come here to Lake Mead," he finally finished. I stared at him. I didn't know he could talk that much, I start to laugh.
"What's so funny?" he asked.
"You…talking…so much," I said in between laughs.
"I'm glad I can amuse you," he smirked.
"So why did you kiss me?" I asked, his eyes widened. He looked at me.
"Because I love you, Max," not this Max thing again. I stand up quickly.
"Fang, you and the Flock are really nice in all and I really hope Max comes back. But I am not Max, I'm sorry, I have to go," I said grabbing my stuff, then unfurled my wings and flew home. Leaving Fang and his love for Max in the dust.
