Fang: You know the drill.
Me: *growls* FANG, THAT WILL NOT DO IT IN COURT!
Fang: *sigh* James Patterson owns Maximum Ride, although this lunatic has gotten her hands on me, Angel and Nudge.
Me: DAMN RIGHT! MUAHAHA!
Angel: If her story is similar to yours it was not intended and please let her know.
Nudge: Otherwise, this story is all her idea.
Me: Mhmm! Now please review, I'd appreciate it muchly!
Chapter Cinq!
ANGEL POV!
"ANGEL TELL ME!" Nudge practically screams.
I almost got mauled by her by letting Max off the hook. What is a period, anyway? God, I have no idea why she wants me to not tell anyone.
"No, Nudge! She will kill me!"
"COME ON, I WON'T TELL ANYONE!"
"I'm sorry Nudge, but I can't." I sigh, I want to tell her now. But I can't! "I'm gonna go to bed, night Nudge!"
FANG POV!
... I still have no idea what is with Max. Obviously something is up with her, and she isn't letting Angel tell anyone. Nothing bad, I don't think. Angel didn't cry or even look upset. So, what is it?
Don't ask me.
GAZZY POV!
I didn't notice anything up with Max, at all.
Meh, I don't think it is big. I don't even notice it now. Well, I suppose she is in bed.
Anyway Iggy and I have this COOL plan for a bomb...
NUDGE POV!
I will get this information out of Angel.
I wonder if she talks in her sleep?
That'd be... Handy.
I could just listen for specific words.
I'm so going to do that. But I'll have to wait a bit, since she is reading. ARGH! I'll just go and get some ice-cream while I wait. Which sort... Cookies and cream, lemon sorbet, vanilla with chocolate sauce or vanilla with sprinkles? SO HARD TO CHOOSE! OH MY GOD THEY ARE ALL DELICIOUS! Hmm, maybe all of them in one? No. Not nice. I'll have lemon sorbet. I love lemons, they are so nice!
IGGY POV!
What. Is. Up. With. MAX?
I need to know, right now. Something is up, very, very obviously. I wish I could have seen some facial expressions earlier to help with the solving of this .. thing .. but I'll have to deal. So, how did Angel sound? Sad? Angry?
No. No.
Happy? No.
Confused?
Hmm.
Confused?
Possibly.
Quite possibly.
This is intriguing, maybe Angel doesn't even get what is up with Max, she just listened so Max wouldn't kill her.
Hmm.
Angel is only six, after all.
MAX POV (..the next morning..)
BAHAHA! I feel great today. Little to no cramps, Angel has not gone and blurted everything and I still have some chocolate.
Yay, much?
I walk down to the kitchen, smelling delicious bacon and eggs cooking.
Mmm!
Iggy looks at me suspiciously, and I glare at him. Weirdo!
The eggs and bacon are delicious!
"Max, everyone else needs to eat, too, you know?"
"Whatever, Iggy."
Mmm... delicious.
FANG POV!
Breakfast. Was. Fantastic.
Yep!
After that Max and I walk to my room to just, talk.
I do not dare mention that she's a bit weird. I would get stabbed.
MAX POV!
"Fang..."
"Yep, Max?"
Breathe, Max. Breathe.
"I think we should give the kids the talk."
There, I said it! Not so bad.
He chokes. "WHAT?"
Maybe not.
"Well, they kinda need it."
"Angel is only six!"
"Better earlier, we don't have to do it again later."
And the fact she needs to know what a period is...
He sighs. "Fine, but I'm not doing it."
"Fang," I start, sternly. "You, Iggy and I are all taking part in telling them what they need to know."
"Bu-"
"No buts, Fang."
"Fine," he sighs.
IGGY POV!
"GOD, NO, MAX!"
"Yes."
"WHAT ON EARTH BROUGHT THIS ON?"
She pauses. Hmmm...
"Nudge is over 11, now."
"And?"
"We got the talk at 11."
"Still."
"You are helping, Iggy. Whether you like it or not. At least later we shouldn't get awkward questions."
I'm onto her.
MAX POV!
"FLOCK MEETING!"
Lord help me.
Everyone races into the room, including Total.
"Total, you don't have to be here."
He'll never let me forget this.
"Oh, I'm fine."
Stupid dog.
How do I do this, lord?
FANG POV!
"Well.. Since you are all mature enough now, we need to give you a talk," Max starts.
I snicker, she'll have to do most of the talking. She actually went out a bought a book for the girls, though, so she might just shove it towards them. I doubt she will though.
"A talk about what?" Gazzy asks.
"Well, as you get older lots of things happen to you.." She blushes. "And different things will happen to boys and girls and you need to know."
Ten minutes later...
"WHAT? EW? HAIR! OH MY GOD!"
"You get to take over, Fang. I've done the first bit." Max tells me.
"Nope."
"YEP."
She glares menacingly at me.
Another ten minutes later...
"EW, GAZZY! THAT IS SICKENING! EW EW EW, IGGY, FANG GET AWAY FROM ME!"
"Iggy take over or die."
Yet another ten minutes later...
"So, I don't get a bra?"
"No, Gazzy."
"Is that all, Max?"
"Sadly, no. But Gazzy and you guys can leave."
"Nah, it is fine."
MAX POV!
Help me lord, now I need to explain.. the thing.. the monthly thing... AND GAZZY, IGGY AND FANG ARE FREAKING STAYING! FU- I MEAN FREAKING IDIOTS!
God, if I had the opportunity to leave I'd be gone! BUT NO!
Idiots, probably figured it wasn't that horrible, just something like girly that was not necessary.
YEESH!
"Ohkay..."
"Well.." I glare at Fang and Iggy. Idiots.
"Hmmm?"
"When a girl gets to a certain point in her life," I start, my cheeks flaming, "they become a woman."
I hate you Fang and Iggy.
"Oh.. and?"
Help me!
"The girl can tell this by seeing ..." help help help! "blood on her underpants..."
"Oh my god? I AM GONNA BLEED!"
"Shh, Nudge." Help . Me . "And this is called a period."
I can practically hear Angel's "oooohhh".
"It is perfectly normal and you can just come to me."
Breaathheee Maaxxxx! YOU HAVE DONE IT!
"Technically you might not get it though..." I hear Fang. Oh . My . Fucking . I mean freaking . God .
"Huh?"
"Well, we don't know if the school has messed with you girl's ... things."
Help. Still. I take it back me being safe.
"Um."
"yeah?"
"AHA!"
Oh god. "Iggy, what?"
"Nothing," he said quickly. Too quickly. Hmm.
"Well.. anyway.. Yeah. So you'll get a period, and that's it."
"Maybe."
"FREAKING HELL FANG!"
"What?"
"Stop with the maybes."
"Just telling the truth."
"FREAKING HELL FANG! THEY WILL GET THEIR PERIODS, OKAY?"
"Um, it is just they might not."
Iditot. IDIOT!
"THEY WILL BE GETTING THEIR FREAKING PERIODS BECAUSE I HAVE MY FREAKING PERIOD! OKAY? YEAH? GOOD! MY GOD YOU ARE AN IDIOT!"
To be honest the expression on his face is priceless.
"Oh."
"Um, yeah." Idiot, idiot, idiot.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
I stare at him. "Why the fu...dge would I tell you?"
"I am your boyfriend."
"I wouldn't tell you if you were my freaking anything!"
Now I know what a period is... And I doubt I'll be forgetting it, Max.
I forgot the kids were there.
Right.
"Oh, wait. Umm, Nudge and Angel here are your books," the books are something like 'The Girl's Guide to Puberty!'... "and here."
Some, er, supplies, so they aren't taken by surprise, like I was.
"AWW, HOW COME I DON'T GET STUFF?" Gazzy yells.
"Cos you aren't special enough," replies Angel, grinning.
AWKWARD! Lol, anywayz. Thank you for reading thus far! Okay, any suggestions? Write out by review. Any questions? Review. Any mistakes? Review.
Am I forgetting something?
Oh yeah, review!
BTW I am thinking of Eggy or Niggy. Which one? I'll choose by myself if I don't come up with suggestions, though. So not life threatening.
But please...
Review!
