Chp. 2

Ladder Fun

So I had some questions that I wanted to clear. All of the regular chapters are the chapters leading up to the accident. Okay, so I tried to write a story all by my self but well-how do I put it nicely- it sucked. It didn't meet Alex's standards. This Chp. was so bad I had to like re-write the WHOLE CHAPTER! Well hope you like it because it took forever to write. I like was writing so much that I would get cramps in my neck. I would sit in front of the computer for HOURS on end.

Fang's P.O.V

While the girls watched girly movies like 27 Dresses and all that jazz Gazzy, Iggy, Max, and I played football in the front yard. Iggy was throwing the ball to me and it ended up on the roof.

"Iggy! We haven't even been playing for 5 minutes and look what you did. You threw the football on the roof. My favorite football. Now we have to get it down." Max yelled at Iggy about to tackle him.

"Max chill. I'll go get the ladder." I said to her holding on to her. "Then you can get it down." At that last part Iggy and Gazzy started to chuckle. I go to the backyard-which looks a lot like the front except it's the back; also it has a pool and hot tub. I get the ladder and bring it to Max who-I can tell- is really trying hard not to rearrange his face.

"Here's Fang with the ladder." Iggy said looking a little relived that I got there because Gazzy wouldn't be able to hold her if she tried anything.

"Here you go Max go on ahead up." I said to her laughing with Gazzy and Iggy. I heard her mumble something about doing something to hurt us tonight. Yikes!

So when Max is half way up I then decide to take a restroom break. All of a sudden I hear Max yell. She's either really angry or REALLY hurt. So then I cut the stream, wash my hands, and run out to Max.

What I see out there is not a pretty site. There is blood everywhere, Max is on the ground not moving, and I guess the girls from downstairs, heard Max yell-not scream Max doesn't scream- and are now freaking out.

"Oh this is bad, this is real bad." I heard Gazzy say as I ran over to Max. Iggy had tried to pick her up but it really wasn't working out that well.

"Oh my gosh! Max, are you okay? Someone call 911!" Ella screamed overreacting.

"Ella she's okay now just go inside and tell Angel what happens so she doesn't come out here. 'Kay?" I asked her hoping to calm her down but it didn't work. Ella had already started crying. If Angel came up here and saw all this blood it wouldn't be pretty.

"Uh-huh." She answered going inside.

"Max. Are you okay?" I asked her. "What happened?" I asked Iggy. And then I looked at Gazzy. "Gazzy how about you go and clean up the yard and go make sure the girls are okay."

"Okay." Gazzy said going into the house.

"Okay so what happened Iggy?" I questioned Iggy.

"She was on her way down the ladder and Gazzy tackled me so, I let go of the ladder and well this is what happened." Iggy said acting out the parts and pointing at Max at the end. By the end of the explanation Iggy, Max, and I were inside and we were on our way to the guest bathroom.

When we got upstairs to the bathroom I got the first-aid box from the cabinet. Max had finally had woken up. I sat Max on the counter so I could be eye level with her-Max is vertically challenged- with now 3 covered in blood tissues. I set the first-aid box on the counter and start cleaning her up. I saw her wince once or twice but she never yelled, until I moved her nose to see if it was broken.

"Gosh. What happen- Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! That hurts. What happened?" Max asked.

"Max, don't yell in my ear. I have ears and I plan to keep them for later in life." Iggy told her. "And Yo, dude I'm like really sorry about letting go of the ladder. Stupid ladder!"

"Okay, okay, but all I remember is me going down the ladder with the football. Why is my face bloody?" She said touching her face. "Why is your shirt bloody?" I hadn't noticed that my shirt was covered with her blood. I took my shirt off and told myself that I'd put one on later. I caught Max staring, which made me feel uncomfortable.

"Fang, man. No flashing aloud." Iggy said laughing but turned serious when Ari walked in.

"Iggy what did you do this time?" Ari asked Iggy as he was walking to Max to see if she was okay. I caught Ari eyeing me without a shirt and made me feel more uncomfortable.

"I didn't do anything. Gazzy tackled me and I let go of the ladder and then this is what happened." He said pointing to Max.

"Owe that hurts. Be more careful, will ya?" Max asked me when I cleaned up a cut.

"Calm down Max. I'm trying my best to be careful." I said to her a little annoyed.

"Fang thank you for helping Max. Do you think she's okay?" Ari asked.

"Yeah. She might have did something to her nose but other than that she's fine." I assured him.

"Okay. We'll take her to the hospital to get it fixed after I order dinner. We are having Japanese. What do you want? The usual? Max do you want the usual, too?" Ari asked us both.

"Sure. That's fine." Max nodded her head and then yelled because of the pain.

"Don't move your chin please." I told her. "And sure."

"No dip Sherlock." Max retorted. Ari had already walked out of the room and was on his way down the stairs.

"Then why did you move it? Hmmm?" I asked her getting on her nerves. I heard Iggy chuckle at that.

"Just shut up Fang." She said playfully.

"Okay. I guess I will." I said in a pretended hurt filled voice.

After like 15 minutes I had her nose cleaned up and had the bleeding stopped. As Iggy walked out of the bathroom and was on his way down the stairs, I help her off the counter and we came face to face. Our lips 2 inches apart. I had never noticed how beautiful they were. How full they were. And her eyes were a beautiful chocolate. I don't know how long we stood there looking at each other but Max walked away without a word. Leaving me there wordless. Had something just happened there? I don't know. I was knocked out of my trance when I heard Iggy yell for me to come down so we could take Max to the hospital.

"Coming." I said. I threw on a shirt and walked down-stairs.

"Okay so we are having Japanese for dinner so what do you guys want?" Ari asked the whole group. Max was sitting on the table laughing as Angel tickled her-lightly because of her nose. Max was so cute when she was laughing. Did I just think that?

"Yo. Earth to Fang. Quit staring at Max." Gazzy said laughing with his arm around Nudge's hip.

"I wasn't staring at Max." I informed them even though I didn't know if I was or not. After Ari had all the orders he called in and told them what we wanted. They said that it would take an hour. So, Ari would go out to get it in 45 minutes since we live 15 minutes away from the restaurant.

"Wow Max. Did you order everything on the list?" Gazzy asked.

"Hey, Gazzy did you get all the blood cleaned up outside? Since someone let go of the ladder." Max yelled loud enough for Gazzy to hear. In the living room Iggy was making out with Ella. Max had her back faced towards them so she hasn't seen them-

"Iggy quite lip locking with my sister. Do you want me to call Ari?" she said holding up her phone.

With that Iggy stopped-his lips still on Ella's who was still kissing him- with his eyes open with fear in his eyes. Ella finally got the message and stopped kissing him.

"What's wrong?" Ella asked Iggy.

"Umm Max threatened to call Ari. I really want to stay alive since I've pretty much pushed him over the edge already." Iggy answered.

"Good answer Iggy, good answer." Max replied.

"Hey, Max. I cleaned up the ground." Gazzy answered her question. Everyone walked out to Max's car. I drove Max to the hospital and they fixed her up in record time.

About an hour later Ari and we were all home and Ari gave us the food. Max's nose had one of those white nose casts on. We put in some random movie that I still don't know what we watched because I was to busy looking at Max. Watching her laugh, (or try to laugh. She couldn't really cause of the nose cast) Or watching her punch Iggy or Gazzy when they would kiss their girlfriends since she was sitting in between them.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha" I laughed out loud because Max punched Iggy when he was kissing Ella and he bit down on Ella's tongue. Ella's tongue began to bleed and Iggy felt really bad. "Good one Iggy."

Now Ella and Iggy were blushing a crimson color. At like 10 o'clock we got into our sleeping bags. Angel went upstairs at that time so now we could watch a movie that we doesn't have to be kid friendly. Iggy slept next to Ella, Nudge slept next to Ella, Gazzy sat next to Nudge, I slept next to Gazzy, and Max slept next to Iggy.

I woke up at 5 in the morning when I heard a loud thump.

"Ahhhhhhh gosh what's up with me falling and getting hurt today?" I heard max mumble. "Dang it! I'm bleeding again." I'm not a heavy sleeper so I got out of my sleeping bag and went to go help Max. Nobody had woken up yet.

"Max, are you okay?" I asked her. "Is your nose bleeding again?"

"No. I think it's my head this time. Sorry for waking you up. I rolled over and hit my head against the coffee table." She apologized.

"Let me help you with that." I said helping her up and bringing her up stairs to the bathroom- for the second time today. Max went straight to the sink to wash her head off. Thankfully the bleeding stopped really quickly. When she brought her face she hit her head on my head because I was leaning over making sure everything was okay.

"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry." Max leaned forward to see if I had a bruise. At that moment our faces were inches apart and I felt this weird feeling that I wanted to kiss her. I leaned forward very slowly somewhat asking Max if it was okay. When she didn't comment I kissed her. But what surprised me the most was that she kissed me back. Hard. Then we heard someone clearing their throat.

"Sorry to interrupt but are you okay Max?" Iggy asked laughing quietly. "I heard you and Fang get up and go upstairs." By that time Max had jumped off the counter and was pushing Iggy out of the way and was mumbling to her self.

"Whoa, dude I didn't know you had a thing for Max." Iggy said STILL laughing.

"I don't I was just making sure she was okay?" I said as more of a question than a statement.

"Sure you were." Iggy said on our way down.

"If you say anything to anyone you will regret the day you did. Got it?"

"Sir yes, Sir." Iggy said laughing again. I walked back over to my sleeping bag-only glancing at Max once-who was already asleep- and fell asleep thinking of my first kiss. What bothered me the most was that Max kissed me back. I mean most of the guys at my school would be overjoyed that they were kissing Max and she kissed them back. But what I was worried about was if this would ruin my friendship with her, if she didn't like me. If this was just a one time thing. I don't know what I would do if Max and I weren't friends or anything at all. Part of me wished I didn't kiss Max but the other is happy I did because what if she did like me? All of my questions will have to stay unanswered until I talk to her in private. What have I done!

Did you like it? I hope you did. I enjoyed writing it. Also a special thanks to:
