Hey!
Yeah, It's chapter five.
Umm, clarifications? Max said, "The worst part is, I think I killed his girlfriend."
Thanks. So I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Alright?
NOTE: If you see any typo's, please point it out NICELY. Hopefully, this would be a better chapter.
I was almost there when I saw Fang and Ms. Pretty Face sitting on a bench, holding hands. Keep your cool, Max, I thought to myself. I'm not going to act badly. Behave! I took a step forward but stopped when I saw little Ms. Pretty Face holding Fang everywhere. I mean everywhere! I'd rather not mention where.
I turned around and decided to leave, but something made me change my mind and turn back around.
I ran towards them in full speed and pushed her away from Fang. Fang was yelling my name to stop but I didn't listen.
The next thing I know was I was on top of little Ms. Pretty Face strangling her until she was unconscious. My eyes widened and I let go of her and stood up and ran away, tears falling from my face.
I suddenly woke up from my nightmare (although it really happened), breathless.
I looked around and didn't see anyone else in the room. I expected to see Fang there, but he wasn't.
What did I do?!
I took a fast hot shower, grabbed my coat and left my apartment. I ran towards the hospital, where the smell of antiseptics was killing me (I still can't believe I'm doing this) and grabbed a few flowers from a vase.
I asked the nurse the way to Tracy's room but she said there were a lot of Tracy's. I described her. Strangled, blond hair, blue eyes, tall and a teenager. The nurse brought me to a big room and I went inside.
Oh my God - the smell was worse in here. I looked at the bed, and Tracy was right there. She opened her eyes and said, "Fang?". He probably didn't visit her yet. I wonder why. When she figured out who I am, she began to yell at me to go away. I was startled, but I'm not going out until I'm done with what I'm supposed to do.
"Look, I'm sorry! I didn't know what went over me, alright?" I said, my voice cracking. She ignored what I said and told her mom, which was beside her, to make me leave. I quickly put the flowers on the bedside table and then I ran outside.
When I got outside of the hospital, I looked back and thought to myself, I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I started to walk back to my apartment which was still a few kilometers away, giving me lots of time to think.
I passed by the park then I suddenly had horrifying flashbacks. Her face full of horror, Fang's face of grief and worry and my anger and stupidity. Why did I have to do that?! Tears started to blur my vision, so I decided to ride a taxi instead of walking back.
When I arrived in my apartment, I quickly ran into the bathroom and took a hot shower.
It felt good. It felt really good. It relaxed me a bit. Just a little. The warm water falling on my head and cleansing my face was just so.. relaxing. It was like a waterfall.
After my shower, I jumped onto my bed and closed my eyes, trying to get some rest. It was somewhere around 2 o'clock in the afternoon and my shift was at 8 so I took a short nap. It would only take a few minutes..
I felt movement beside me, but I figured that it was just me. I looked at my watch and it was - Oh my God, it was 9:30! I quickly sat upright, but suddenly, a voice said, "Could you move a bit?" My eyes widened. I looked beside me and saw Fang.
What?! He was actually talking to me?!
I stood up and pointed at him. "What are you doing here?!" I asked in a menacing voice. He opened his eyes and said, "Why? You don't want me here?" he asked. I swallowed. Do I?
"Umm, No - I mean - I don't know." I said. He made me sit down beside me and pulled me closer to him. "Sorry for bailing out on you last night. I had to leave. I had classes yesterday. I'm so sorry.." he said and then kissed the back of my ear while he said his last word. I shivered and pushed him away a little bit, hoping that I didn't offend him. "Wait - aren't you mad? I don't know if we should, you know.." I said nervously. He looked at me with a confused face. "Mad? But why? You didn't kill her, at least. And as I said - if you react badly, which you did, I'm breaking up with her. I did, so I don't care about her anymore." he said then he laid down on the stupidly uncomfortable bed and pulled me with him. "Oh. But still! I almost killed an innocent girl, which just so happens - " he shushed me by kissing me real hard and then he put his hand behind my neck, and one arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I struggled to push him away, but I was overwhelmed. I just went with it. I kissed him back with all my strength and pulled him closer to me too. I felt his lips against mine curl up then he pushed me away a little then he said, "Tracy is my girlfriend not because I loved her at all but because - I only pretended to move on. I've always loved you, Max. Especially when you wore that beautiful silver dress during our dinner. You just simply took my breath away." he said then I blushed and he kissed me again just like 30 seconds ago. I didn't argue.
Let's just say that that evening was like a fantasy.
Oh, and just so you know, my dumb boss called me and fired me for being absent for two days. Great, news huh?
But then - who cares?
I woke up beside Fang on the really stupid and hard-as-rock bed in my apartment. I looked at him and he was still asleep. He looked so freaking inhumanly beautiful. Or 98% humanly beautiful. I chuckled. I pushed him off the bed and heard a THUD! He woke up and looked at me quite pissed. "What was that for?" he asked. I laughed. "I needed some space." I said, trying to put an innocent face but failed. I laughed. He laughed too and got back on the bed. He wrapped his arms around my waist tight. "You do know I don't have a job anymore? I'm going to have to start looking for one again." I sighed. He snuggled me. "You could study with me. Trust me - it's not as bad as it sounds." he promised. School - I suddenly remembered some bad memories I had in school. I shook it off by shaking my head. "No, no thanks." I said then I grabbed my clothes and ran into the bathroom.
My hair was a tangled mess and my face looked refreshed for once. I felt a gust of wind behind me and knew that Fang had followed me inside. "Everything alright?" he asked me. Well, damn, was he hot. Wait, no. I shook my head. "Yeah. I just looked at myself." he raised his eyebrow questioningly. "You looked in the mirror?" he asked, his voice draped in shock. "I think so." I said, just as shocked then we both laughed. He suddenly pulled me closer to him and he was leaning in closer when his phone beeped. Damn phone.
He went into the bedroom (AKA living room, dining room and kitchen) and got his phone from his jacket. He read the message and then he told me, "Max? I gotta go now. They announced to all the students in my school that we're having Saturday classes for the next two weeks." he said, annoyed. He let out a deep breath and then he fixed his clothes and put on his jacket. He came over to me and kissed my forehead. "Goodbye, Max." he said.
He was heading for the door when I caught his wrist. I rolled my eyes at him. "Oh come on! Forehead?! That was so seven years ago, Fang!" I said and then I kissed him. He kissed me back. He smiled and the caressed my cheek for a few seconds. "I love you, Max." he said. We both blushed. Did he just say that? I smiled then he left.
I was still smiling five minutes after he left. I ran into the bathroom once I snapped out. I took another hot shower.
Did I mention how much I adore hot showers? It helps me relax and think. Amazing, huh?
I stepped out of the shower and got dressed. I was going to look for another job today, even if I don't have any of those paper-thingys.
I grabbed my jacket and opened the door.
When I did, I got the biggest surprise of my life.
Or is it?
Not really a good chapter, but I hope it made up for the last one. I hope you liked it even a bit. Sorry it's such a short chapter.
Review!
