Chappie 13
Max POV
Before on MR5MOTRA:
In the middle of his speech that was conducted in my voice, his arms out stretched as far as he could reach, he stopped and contorted his face into a mask of fear. I couldn't think of a reason that he would stop, well, except for the- fire sparking off my hair, or maybe the win tunnel encircling me, or maybe even the vines around my legs. Rain started pouring down outside, and my hands were lit aflame, curled into fists. I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and cooled off, literally. One of my eyes cracked open the tiniest bit and two deep brown eyes gazed into mine, a few feet away. He was inching forward, not sure if I was going to explode onto him again, or if I was about to pass out from exhaustion. I mouthed water, because his second inference was the closest one to my real reaction. Apparently, controlling the elements really took it out of you. I couldn't move. Fang nodded, and before I knew it, he was holding the cup against my lips. I drank greedily from the glass, savoring it replenishing my throat of moisture. I regained the movement of my body. As soon as I could, I walked over and flopped on the bed. The hairs on the back of my neck rose and I knew Fang was behind me.
"Where's the flock?" I asked, becoming myself again.
"In their rooms. And by the way, did you mean to scare them more than erasers can?" Just in case you don't know the flock that well, he said the second part in a joking tone.
"Why yes Fang, I
do enjoy torturing the people that I love." I said, with a certain
sarcastic tone to my voice.
"So you love me?" He asked,
this time completely serious.
"How could I not?" I replied, returning my face to his, as serious as he was. Don't ask me how I kept my voice so steady, I still don't know myself. His eyes hypnotized me, keeping me locked in a trance. Those beautiful chocolate eyes penetrated my soul, then softened as he leaned forward. I met his lips half way with mine. I don't know how long we were kissing, but we were zoned out of our trance with the creaking of a door. Fang and I both turned our heads at the same time to recognize the flock member in our door way. I blushed seeing that it was Ig, my face probably looking like a tomato, again!
"Am I interrupting something?" He asked with a trademark smirk.
"No." I replied, a little too quickly judging by the growth of Ig's smirk.
"What, Iggy?" Fang asked for me, a hint of irritability in his voice.
"The rest of the flock wanted to go shopping. Max, I beg you to stay here and rent a movie or something. Please, just anything but shopping!" I laughed and looked at Fang. His eyebrows rose wondering what I was going to say.
"Well Igs, I need to rest up and get a hold of my new powers, but I'm sure that you can go with the rest of the flock. You wouldn't mind, would you?" Ig's face fell with my reply, but I knew that he would find some way out of it, or so he thought. Like I predicted, in a last minute effort to save himself from the torture of shopping, he brought the flock into my room.
"Nudge, Angel, you guys are going to go shopping with Gazzy and Iggy. You can get everyone new clothes, but you can't spend more than $300. Ok with you?" Their faces lit up with excitement at my little speech. I handed Ig the Max Ride card and the two other female flock members dragged him off. I laughed and turned on the TV as Gazzy closed the door behind the other flock members.
Hi Guys! I kept my promise! How did you like it? I added another poll choice: Eggy. So far Niggy is in the lead with 5 votes to 2 votes for Nuzzy. I need at least 10 votes before the next chappie is posted, and you can also vote in a review if you are too lazy to go to my profile, or if you're an anonymous reviewer. 2 people already have. If you found any grammar issues in here, or I just messed up, go ahead and tell me. Thanks, Kiara! Oh, and to whoever asked, I play the clarinet. I'll try to update soon, but I change a whole 10 chappies with this one because the mall scene was crappy. Please vote!
