Mmmm…I hope you liked the last chapter. Here is the next one!

Fang's POV

We were flying up to get out of this wacked up town when I saw Max in front of me just start falling like a freakin' rock.

"Ig! Help me get Max!"

Me and Iggy rush to catch Max as she is falling. We catch her and fly down awkwardly with a limp Max between us.

"Dude. I see a place to land right there on the beach."

We landed and I checked Max out to see if she was hurt. She had strange burn marks on her fingers.

"Hey Ig. Check those out."

"She was burned Fang. I can feel the scorched skin. This is pretty bad. We'll have to stay here for the night to let Max rest."

Perfect. We have to stay in this freaky, messed up town.

We settled down on some trees near the coast. I laid Max down in my lap and took the first watch. Around midnight, I felt her stir.

"Fang? Is that you?"

"Yeah Max. It's me. Are you okay? What happened up there?"

"Slow down Fang before you overexert yourself."

Oh man. She smiled up at me and I think my heart just stopped. I love Max with all my heart, but I don't know how to tell her! Ugh!

"Fang? Did you hear anything I just said?"

"Uhh…No. Sorry…"

"What I said was I was flying and then the air started to get a little thicker and then I hit this barrier thing and it shocked the piss out of me! And it burned my fingers. I blacked out. I didn't know what had happened at first."

"Dang Max. Are you okay now?"

"I feel a little exhausted but otherwise good."

The next thing I did happened so unexpectedly, I went into shock. Without thinking, I bent down and kissed her on the forehead. She looked up at me and I thought…I saw hunger and want in her eyes but I think that's my brain tricking me. We stared into each other's eyes for maybe a full 5 minutes. Then I heard Iggy stir.

"I can take the next watch now Fang. Oh, hey Max."

"Hey Iggy. Well, I am going to bed so I will talk to you in the morning. Night boys."

I looked at her with longing. Oh how I wished for her to be mine!!! She sneaked a glance back at me and smiled. I smiled back without thinking.

"Fang, she loves you."

Angel! What are you doing up?! You are supposed to be asleep!

See, there are some downsides to having an 11 year old mind reader. She doesn't know what privacy means! But it does have it's uses… I fell asleep thinking about Max.
