Ratchet grinned, taking a huge chunk out of his sandwich. "Man!" he cheered, grinning, after he had swallowed down his food. "This is great! She digs you!"

I glanced at Max, who looked miserable as Angel and Nudge harassed her about something or another. She looked so beautiful…

"No," I replied, glancing at him again. "She hates me. She wants wild boars to kill me."

Ratchet scoffed, waving his hand at me. "Chicks say stuff like that when they're in denial," he informed me. "Trust me. Maximum Ride has a thing for you."

I shook my head. "Doubtful," I replied, my face expressionless.

Just as Ratchet opened his mouth to argue, Nudge and Angel hopped to their feet, and Max's eyes widened as she tried to yank them back down.

Suddenly, Lissa and J.J appeared, grinning as Ratchet whistled. Lissa nodded at J.J, who turned on her iPod, and suddenly What Makes You Beautiful was playing.

Oh God.


:3 I hated writing the chapter after this. So...many...dance moves..
