Me: *Looks over STWAOES* Hmm… Chapter 59. Yep, I'll do that! IT'S NOW IN MY CONTROL! MWAH HA HA-

Nudge: You know, you could actually start writing the chapter now instead of laughing manically.

Me: Shut up Nudge… -_-

Nudge: I'm just saying! It's one thing to think about the things you're writing, but another to actually do it. Do you wanna become an author Sam?

Me: *sighs heavily* Yes Nudge…

Nudge: Oh, awesome! Then you should totally take all these stories, especially Just Hold Me- that one's the best!- and put em up for publishing! Ooh, and then you could make people fall in love with your books and then before you know it- BAM- children will start doing book reports on you and everything!

Me: I think I'm gonna start that chapter now.

Nudge: Finally. What took you so long?

I shuddered just thinking about that awful day. 'I remember,' I said quietly. 'But I just can't kick him out in the cold with no place to go, no way to survive. Not knowing that the Whitecoats will be gunning for him more. It's only for a few days- just till he expires.'

It felt weird saying it like that. Like retire. Expire. All different words for die. He was seven years old and wasn;t going to live to see eight.

And his first seven years had sucked big time.

Fang poked me hard in the chest.

'Hey!' I said.

He leaned very close, several inches taller than me, and got right in my face. But this time he didn't kiss me.

'You're making your worst mistake,' He snarled. 'And it's going to cost you. You'll see.'

I was taken aback. Fang had never spoken to me like that.

It was like he had just based all of our life together around the whole Ari situation.

I managed to swallow and stared at the ground. Never in my life had I been so nervous. Especially in front of Fang.

'Well?' He was urging me to speak. He always assumed that I had everything to say about every little thing. But this was just too surreal. I had never fought with Fang like this before. It wasn't good.

'You just don't get it, do you?!' Ragingly, I blurted out some words and water now vaguely stung in my eyes.

'All I want to do is help him! To make him see his mistakes. Sure he tried to kill us in the past, but he saved us recently Fang. Doesn't that count for something?! I mean God…'

Just like a rubber band, I snapped swiftly.

Slowly but surely, tears streamed down my face like a water fall. All the things in my sight were cloudy visions and my eyes were now burning.

I could see what I thought was Fang lowering his eyes and now he was taking my hand.

Then my arm. Then his arms came around my back.

He was hugging me. I was about to rest on his shoulder. And I said about.

'No!' I bounced out of his grasp and paced back a few steps. 'No Fang. You can't just hug me and think that it'll go away! It won't.' (AN: Ha, got that scene from Friends)

Now he was finding it hard to swallow. His neck was tence, as was his eyes.

'Well, what do you want me to do?' He asked quietly.

'Just…' I thought about it for a moment. 'Just go away from my sight. And don't try and back-snap Ari. He- he's a good kid.' I managed to say, with my face all moist and salty.

'But Max…'

'Leave please!' My voice turned the attention of my Flock and Ari, but I gestured them to continue on with what they were doing.

'Fine.' Fang spoke softly. 'But we have to talk about this later.'

As soon as he finished with his Grammy award winning speech (hope you noticed my sarcasm), he unfurled his wings and took off into the night sky.

I sat on the porch swing only inches away from me, and buried my face in my hands and cried.

Nudge: What the hell?! You were supposed to bring them closer- not break them apart idiot!

Me: Well, there might be a next chapter if people are nice! Then I'll reconsider the Fax…

Nudge: GAH!! Next chapter. WHOOPIE! C'mon people. Click that review button. This story has got it going on! *waves hands in funny motion*

Me: Yeah, I'm gonna take off… *runs frantically out of room*

Well, you heard me and Nudge's conversation. Review if you want Fax!
