Chap.5

Breakfast

I stormed angrily out of my room, leaving Fang still sitting in my bed and Iggy dying from laughter.

Idiot! I fumed silently in my head. Son of a bi- uh, GUN!

Max? said Angel's voice in my head. Why are you so mad?

Iggy was being silly, sweetie, I replied tiredly.

Oh. Max?

Yes?

What's 'bitch'?

Whoa. Where'd she learn that one? Grown up words, Angel, I replied.

Okay… I'm hungry, Max! Can Iggy cook something?

Sure, honey. Get everyone downstairs, 'kay?

Okay! And with that, Angel 'left' my mind.

Downstairs, I found a bemused Dr. Martinez listening to the flock rant.

"And then I opened the door, and they were just sitting there -"

"And he started screaming for me and Iggy and I was like, OMG, 'cause their hair was ll messed up, and Fang was, like, sitting in her bed, like he'd slept overnight, and -"

"Nudge," Mom interrupted. "You cannot say 'like' or 'and' more than 3 times in a sentence before it becomes a run – on."

Nudge blushed.

I pretended to walk in loudly and clear my throat. They all jumped up in surprise. "Well," I said pretending to be oblivious of their… previous conversation. "What's for breakfast?"

Mom was the 1st to regain her composure. "Not sure, Max," she said calmly. "Gazzy, you go ask Iggy."

Iggy who was still obviously howling with hilarity, came down the stairs about 2 minutes later.

"I'm -" he said, between bursts of laughter. "Making French -" laugh. "Toast with eggs."

"I want mine scrambled!" said Angel.

"Sunnyside up!"

"Powdered sugar, too!"

When everyone was done personalizing their orders, Iggy went to start breakfast.

I looked down to inspect myself. I was still wearing the old sweats I had slept in last night. I went back to my room to change.

In my room, I found a pair of shorts and a t-shirt, and strolled into the bathroom across the hall.

I opened the door, and then BAM. Bumped into Fang again. Whoa. A total déjà vu moment. How does he manage to be so "Mr. Tall and Dark"? I'll never manage to find out.

PAGEBREAK, BABY!

Iggy POV

When I finally finished all seven of the jumbo – sized breakfasts, the whole flock, Ella (sigh.) and Dr M. were already at the table. Max and Fang were probably off somewhere making out again. It made me want to laugh, just thinking about it.

Nudge, still babbling endlessly, continued her daily morning talk.

"So now, I have these reaallyy awesome beige capris, and I don't have ANY top to go with it! I mean, pink with beige is too light, and black or blue would make me look emo or something, and red, orange or yellow, are like, sun colors. BEIGE with sun colors is just too bright!"

Ella (another sigh) who was soaking this girl talk all in, said, "Well, beige looks really good with purple! I have this purple top, and it's all sparkly…" I didn't bother to listen to the rest. I was already blind. I didn't want to be deaf too.

A/N: A little humor on Iggy's part. I actually combined 2 chap. to make this one longer. IGGY LIKES ELLA! :D I'll update soon. REVIEW!
