I seriously am sorry for taking so long to update for the ten millionth time this year. If I do start taking too long though just let me know. Since I am nice about this, if you guys review my new story, "Murky Sky," I'll give you a sneak peek to the next chapter. Here is chapter 67th, ENJOY!!
Chapter 67 Faxness
Fang's POV
The whole Flock was dead silent that you would be able to hear a fly land on a table. With every second of silence, it seemed like the light started to dim. Even Nudge had nothing to say, which doesn't happen.
I spoke to soon; Nudge was the first one to break the silence, "Why are we freaking out over this if there is no threat on us?" No one answered.
"How about we just forget about this and move on?" Gazzy asked.
Nudge, Angel, and Ella got up from their seats, slowly. "We are going to head up to our room." They raced out of the room before anyone could stop them. We waited for their footsteps to die out before Iggy spoke up.
"I'm going to leave too," Iggy got up too, walked over to Gazzy, grabbed his hand and they walked away. Well, technically they sprinted away. Max glared at them until they were completely out of site.
"They are up to something," she started to get up but I grabbed her wrist.
"Let's worry about that later," a gleam in her eye told me that she understood what I meant exactly.
She got up from her seat on the edge of the couch and raced up the stairs, seeming extremely excited for what was to come.
"Stop being such a slow poke Fang," she called to me from the top of the stairs and she literally skipped, you heard me right, down the hall.
Max's moods change so fast sometimes that I can hardly keep up.
The door to our bedroom was slammed shut before I got to the top of the stairs.
Hmmm, maybe Max is changing into… whoa I'm not going to go there. Angel stuck her head out the bedroom door curiousness in her eyes. The smile on her face was begging me to tell her what I was thinking.
I rolled my eyes high into my head, like I'd ever tell her that.
Before heading into my room, I shook my head at her. Relief ran through me when the door was unlocked.
I searched around the room for Max but didn't see her. A faint sound of water running sounded around me. The door to the bathroom was shut and by the look of the door knob, it was also locked.
"Max," I called to her and a waited a few seconds for her to answer but when no reply came I called her again. "Max, that isn't what I meant when I signaled you to go upstairs."
Again, no reply and the sound of shower hastened. I knocked on the door and waited a few seconds until steam shot out of the small crack in the door.
"Yes?" Max's hair was dripping wet and a pool of water was forming at the edge of the carpet.
I pushed on the door so I could join her but she slammed the door right in my face. Confusion swallowed me whole, why would she do that?
She opened the door again and stared at me with a huge grin on her face. "You should see your face right now, it's so funny." Her laughter sounded throughout the room.
For the second or maybe the third time, I can't remember how many, I rolled my eyes high into my head.
A deathly glare swapped places with the most amazing smile that was on her face.
"Fine," she slammed the door again and I turned the knob before she had a chance to lock the door on me, even though I could probably get Iggy to open the door for me. There was a great weight pushing against the door to shut it but since I was stronger and weighed more then Max, I easily slid the door open.
A towel was wrapped around her waist and drops of water were slipping onto the ground in great numbers every second. In a few seconds the floor would be completely soaked.
I shut the door and leaned against it with my hands crossed across my chest.
"What?" She started mimicking my posture.
Her foot started to tap rhythmically. A smile started to tug at the corner of her lips and it seemed like she was going to give in at any second.
Max broke the silence and staring contest going on between us, "Can you get out so I can take a shower?"
I laughed to myself in my head. "Nah, I think I'm going to take a shower too." I started to undress.
"Fang," there was teasing when she said my name. "There are other people in the house."
I put a finger to my mouth and thought over that for a second. "Wait a sec." Max rolled her eyes, it seems like we have been doing that a lot lately.
The bedroom door was locked; I know I didn't lock it though. Too bad Max and I don't have one of those 'Do Not Disturb' signs that they use at hotels, which would be perfect for us. Angel must have known we were up to something but I thought that she'd love to listen to our conversations instead. I shrugged my shoulders to no one in particular and headed back into the bathroom.
This time Max didn't have her towel on. All I could do was stare at her, and no I don't mean her chest.
"Ready for that shower," she asked with a gleam in her eye.
I opened my mouth but Max sent the breath from me when she strolled up to me and pecked me on the lips. All I could do was nod to her.
"Come on," she grabbed my shirt by the collar, turned the shower head on and pulled me in with her with me still fully dressed.
Sorry again for taking so long to update, school work and lots of drama going on with my friends and family in general doesn't help. The next chapter will be their payback and I decided to put some faxness in this chapter, as you can tell. Thanks for all of the reviews. PLEASE REVIEW!!
