Max's POV
"What?" Chace pushed me away, grabbing my shoulders with his large rough hands. My eyes grew wide.
"I said I loved you."
"You said you loved Fang." His nostrils flared. This cannot, under any circumstances, end well.
"Come on Chace, your hearing things," I tried to shake it off, and gave an uncomfortable laugh. He just stared.
"Who are you fooling Max? You're obviously not over the guy!" his hands made wide sweeping circles and he looked from side to side. He stood up and started to step back slowly.
"It's not like that Chace, it was an accident, a mistake!" he looked hurt, and I was on the verge of tears. The great Maximum ride can only handle one dosing a night.
"It was a mistake kissing me?" he shook his head sadly at me. I tried to stand up and run next to him, grabbing a hold of his shirt. "Max don't bother, your just using me," he carefully removed my clutch on his shoulder.
"But I…" I stuttered, and my tears betrayed me once again.
"Don't even. I understand Max; it's not me you want. I wish you both the best!" He started to step slowly back. "Why don't you call him by his real name? As if you could even find him? He prefers Nathanial now." Shock crossed my face.
"How…what?" I stuttered.
"Oh come on Max, you have to give me more credit than that." Suddenly I was angry.
"You knew all this time?" I shouted out, furious.
"I only did it to protect you from your past, because I loved you. Key word: Loved, as in Past-tense." He turned to walk away, but then looked back.
"You know what max; I bet you knew all along though, right? You just didn't want to know the truth." I snorted.
"That's ridiculous, I told you how I felt, I loved them, I'd do anything to find them."
"But you were afraid. Afraid of how they'd treat you, if I do remember right, you betrayed them Max." he looked me straight in the eyes.
"You never planned on finding them, you were just going to pretend like everything was fine, and let the guilt eat you up inside." He shook his head and laughed.
"Go to hell." He frowned.
"I can't."
"And why is that?" My arms crossed by themselves.
"Because I need my heart back Max." a tear fell down his cheek.
"It never belonged to me in the first place Chace."
