Ahhhhhhhh! I'm on holidays! Erk! Bring on sleep-ins and doing nothing!

Me being on break now can only mean one thing: I will probably be updating more often! * cue cheers and applause * So, before I start rambling, I will say this: On with the chapter (which is chapter 17! Erk!)

FangPOV

Straight after school my and the guys in the band met outside the school and walked for Iggy's place. We planned on staying there for the night, seeing as though it was Friday.

We often stayed at other friends places in weekend. For me, my friends are more like my family, seeing as though I don't have much excitement at home, besides of Dylan...

As we walked, Iggy and Gazzy talked science. They were both insane with that type of stuff, mainly bombs. Since middle school, they had been partners in crime, always setting off bombs and causing trouble.

Gazzy seemed a lot happy than this morning, so it was a plus. Gazzy was usually so cheerful and bubbly, and it was so depressing to see Gaz so down-hearted.

"Hey, Fang," said Will from beside me.

I turned to him, "Yeah, Will?"

He smiled, showing neat rows of white teeth, "so, what's goin' on between you and Max, ah?"

I was so surprised, I choked on my own breathe, coughing and spluttering trying to get my breathe back.

Sam came up to me with a worried expression on his face, patting my back as everyone else were in hysterics, bending over in attempt to contain their laughter.

I breathed heavily as I said, "That is none of your business,"

Dylan walked up to me, spreading over my shoulders, "it doesn't have to be, it's actually quite obvious,"

Iggy nodded, "he's right, you can totally notice she likes you, too,"

I noticed Sam stiffen, as I said, "I don't care, cause I don't like her in that way, guys. We're friends... Close friends. Nothing else," I assured, continuing to walk down the road.

"Sure, sure," I heard Gazzy say.

SamPOV

Were the guys right? Is it obvious that Max preferred Fang to me?

To tell you the truth, I don't see what's to like about Fang. I mean, his good looking, and all, but he can be really annoying, when he talks. But, he doesn't talk that often, which can also be annoying. Plus, he always has this look on his face, as if his in pain, and you can never tell what he's thinking.

Me, on the other hand, am willing to help anyone, and am kind-hearted, not keeping anything from anyone... Except for the fact that I like Max, but that doesn't count... I think.

FangPOV

I waited in the lounge room for everyone to assemble. We were planning on watching a movie, but I knew it would end in some game of truth of dare, or confessions... Some stupid game like that, which girls usually play at sleepovers, but Iggy always wanted to know everyone's business...

While I waited, I texted Max:

Wattcha doing?

As I waited for her reply, Sam entered the room, "Hey, Sam," I said.

He looked up, face serious, "oh, hey Fang,"

I look up, "what's wrong, Sam?"

He turned away, mumbling something. I could not hear, so I went to the kitchen to find Iggy making some type of food.

Iggy was a whiz in the kitchen. He could make anything taste delicious, and God, did it taste good.

"Yo, Fang. Is it true that the only reason you added Max to the band was to get closer with her?" he said, wiggling his eyebrows.

I went to hit him, as he ducked out of the way, Gazzy said, "Jeez, Fang. Violence is not the answer,"

When he turned, I hit the back of his head.

I went back to the lounge room, following Will, when I heard my phone go off.

I flipped it up, the screen lighting up showing a message from Max:

Not much, just about to put on a movie, you?

Just then, Dylan walked in, yelling loudly, "I wanna watch 'My Little Pony'!"

Sam scowled as Gazzy nodded in agreement.

Will shook his head saying, "no way, no 'My Little Pony',"

Dylan pouted, dropping to his knees, grabbingWill's left leg, "Please?" he wailed.

"Dyl, get off him!" I ordered. I rolled my eyes and replied to Max's message without the guys noticing.

Guys are being idiots... Really bored!

Sam got up from the couch, "I'm putting it on!" I didn't notice what movie he put on, as through the movie I texted Max.

The movie ended, as did the conversation with Max. I got up from my seat saying, "I gotta pee,"

"Have fun, Fangy!" yelled Dylan from his seat on the blue beanbag. I rolled my eyes as I continued my way down the hall to the bathroom.

Once I got back, the T.V was turned off and everyone was sitting on either beanbags or the floor.

"So, Fang," said Gazzy, "who were you messaging through the movie?" he rose an eyebrow, smirking knowingly.

I rubbed the back of my neck, saying, "Er, no one you know,"

"Really?" said Dylan, "I think you're lying..."

"No, it's the truth," I said, looking at my hands avoiding eye contact.

"Well," said Iggy, lifting rectangular object in his hand, "that's not what I read," I looked at what was in his hand: my phone.

"What the hell?" I yelled at my friends, "They're my messages you read!"

"Yeah," said Dylan, "and they were... interesting," he looked at Will, who smiled widely.

"Argh!" I grunted, sinking lower into my beanbag.

"Fang, is it true you like Max?" asked Sam innocently.

"Will you guys stop about that? Please? Just cause I am close with Max, does not mean that I like her in that way all all! Just, back off, it's hard enough knowing that she doesn't like me back let alone you guys talking about it all the freaking time!"

"Ha! You admitted it! You admitted it!" chorused Dylan.

"What are you-" it was then that I realized that was the first time I had confessed my feeling for Maximum Ride out loud.

There it is... Will update tomorrow!

Sorry, there were no music in this, will have some in the next chapter, though!
