Chapter 13- What To Do With Katie
Max's POV
"MAAAAXXXX…!" As we were flying, Nudge's whine burst through my brain cells like a metal bat slamming into a twig. So you could imagine my enthusiasm when I heard her.
"What Nudge?" I simply replied. Actually, I wasn't in the mood to talk. We were on our way back to mum's house and I was extremely exhausted.
Maybe it's just me- but every time we're on the run again there's more stress and pressure. I'm just saying…
"I'm hungry!" Of course! Of course she was going to say that.
Uhhh… Max? Katie's starting to wake up.
That could be the one and only Fang. Ever since I could kind of read his mind now and vice versa for him, things between us have kind of gotten a bit intimate, dare I say it. Wait, hold up.
Crap, what do we say to Katie? She might try to kill us…
Oh well. We've gotten through tougher things before.
"Mmm…" I heard her starting to awake as she nuzzled again Fang's neck. My eyes narrowed as I tried not to think about what dreams Katie might be having…
Relax Max, it's not like she's-
"Don't even finish that sentence." As I cut through Fang's thoughts like ice, I noticed I said that aloud. I'm gonna need to work on my mind-reading skills.
"It takes time!" Angel said sweetly. I smiled at her as I lowered my wings down to fly next to Fang.
His face directed towards mine and a glint of curiosity in his eyes. "How long before you think-?"
"AAAHHH!" Fang's question was cut off by a blood curdling scream, followed by hyperventilating noises.
"I think she's awake." Iggy said amusingly.
Sending a glare his way for a split second, I turned onto the situation at hand.
"We're-w-we-we're- we're flying!"
I swear, if I wasn't so worn out I would've just grabbed the nearest solid object I could find and hit her with it. Then I would say 'Well done O Observant One'.
Gazzy, holding Total, also got her stupidity and began to snicker. "Yes and the sky is blue too!"
We all had to hold back a snicker as Katie frowned suddenly.
"Did- did we leave Itex?" Wow, this chick just kept getting smarter…
"Don't worry, you're safe. We're all going back to my mum's house and then we'll decide what to do with you there."
"What to do with me?!" She seemed shocked. Huh.
"Uhh… Max?" Angel's blue eyes contacted mine. "She knows Jeb."
Obviously reading Katie's thoughts, Angel was just as surprised as we were. All of our eyes widened to the size of dinner plates.
"And- and-" My little Angel tried to continue on, but her voice was in too much shock.
"If you tell them anymore, Jeb will be sorry." Katie's voice was a meer blur in my ears.
"Ange, tell us." Fang urged her on, ignoring her notion.
"Well, Jeb made us forget about her. She's one of our siblings. I just don't know which one…"
Well, fuck.
