Almost Gone 4

"So, where do you guys usually sit?" I asked Iggy and Fang.

Fang shrugged so I turned to Iggy. "We'll . . . we try to avoid people so it all depends on where there sitting."

"Who do you try to–" I said but was interrupted.

"Fangy Baby!" A high pitch squeal came from behind us.

I raised my eyebrows and looked at Fang. His eyes were wide open with horror. "Fangy Baby?" I questioned. He shook his head and looked at the ground, embarrassed.

Before I knew it, frail white arms were wrapped around Fangs torso from behind him and then a small red-headed girl popped her had out from behind him. "Hi ya, baby. Did you miss me over the summer?" She asked him, her bright green eyes twinkling.

"Uhmm, sure," Fang says as he pries himself from her grasp.

She pouts slightly at this then glances my way. The look on her face is pure disgust. "Who's that?" She asks turning to Fang.

Fang looks up at me, and gives a smile, "Max."

The girl laughs and then looks back up at me. "Max? Isn't that, like, a boys name?"

I crossed my arms, "And what's your name?"

Her mocking smile drops and she crosses her arms just like me. "Lissa."

I give her a twisted look, and sigh. "Ooh, sorry, hon. But I heard the name Lissa means unpopular, plain and . . . well, down right boring."

Her jaw drops and she stares at me, her eyes burning with hate.

"Where as, the name Max means 'the greatest' and 'most brilliant' . . . so, if you must insult someone's name, you might want to start with yours first," I tell her, my voice venom.

Lissa sputtered like she didn't know what to say next, "Well, you . . . you just better watch out for yourself," she threats weakly, "You have know idea what I'm capable of."

I rolled my eyes and snorted. "Right. I'll put that at the top of my 'To-do' list," I tell her sarcastically.

She turns to Fang with innocent eyes, "Fangy Baby, are you just gonna let her talk to me like that?"

He nods and starts walking away from her with Iggy and I, "Yeah. Yeah, I am."

The look on her face was unexplainable. You could practically see her face boiling red with fury.

The three of us walked away to an empty table and put our trays of lunch down, then we started cracking up. "Did you see her freaking face? Oh my god!"

"I didn't even need to see it! The way she sounded was good enough for me!" Iggy said as he laughed and held his stomach.

Fang cackled and tried breathing in deeply to calm himself. "Oh, man. That was good."

We all sighed and relaxed a little bit. "So, who was she? Like, who is she to you guys?"

Iggy shook his head.

"A person we try to tolerate with. She's an ex-girlfriend of mine, and she still hasn't figured it out that I don't want to be with her. She thinks that I'm joking." Fang rolled his eyes and faked gagging. "I hate her. I don't know why I went out with her in the first place."

"Ha ha, well, she sounds like a brat." I start picking at the food in front of me . . . well, at least I think it's food . . . it just doesn't look like it.

Iggy nodded. "She is. When Fang and her were still going out, she would act like such a bitch to me. Whenever the three of us would hang out she'd treat me like her personally waiter. She even threatened to dye all my clothes pink if I didn't go to four different stores and find her yappy little dogs' gourmet puppy food." Iggy finished in a rush.

"Wow," was all I said.

Fang and Iggy both nodded.

"Well, at least you're not with her anymore," I say.

Fang nodded quickly. "Thank God."

"Yeah but there is a con to being single," Iggy said.

"And what's that?" I asked.

Iggy gestured to Fang. "All the girls at this school are in love with Fang. Or, well, his looks. And when Lissa and him broke up, all those girls were asking him out. And he said no to every single one of them so each one of them got all depressed and sad and all."

"Wow." I said again. "You must be like some sort of girl magnet."

Fang shrugged sheepishly. "Iggy's had his share of girls drooling over him, too, ya know."

"I do my best to impress the ladies," Iggy says as he wiggles his eyes at me.

I laugh.

Iggy nudges Fang, "Any new girls this year that you think you might be interested in?"

Fang looked around the cafeteria then stole a glance at me from the corner of his eyes. His eyes locked with mine, "I think there might be one girl that I might want a chance with."
