Hey, guys. I might not update tomorrow or the day after. I just found out my best friend is moving so I'm going to be spending her last few days here, with her...okay? But I am updating right now, so be happy!

Max:

I'm so done with him. Iggy, I mean. I stood in the doorway, glaring at him while he just-wait, maybe I'm getting a little ahead of myself...you guys have no idea what I'm talking about.

Let us go back...about, what was it? 1.5 months.

-1 and 1/2 Months Earlier-

"Max.. ." Iggy said, right after I had told him about somebody raping me. Oh great, prepare to be showered in the fucking sympathy. "I think...it might've been Fang..."

I don't know if he was done, because I had yanked the door open and ran inside, upstairs and into the room that Fang was standing in.

"Max..." He said, as he saw I walked in. "I'm so sorry that I let Lissa say those things to you last night."

"I need to ask you..." I said, catching my breath and ignoring his apology. "Where...were you last night?"

"Um...my house...?"

"the whole night?"

"No, he wasn't" Ella spoke up suddenly. Fang looked at her.

"What?"

"Remember, we sent you out to get food and then you came back, all muddy and wet?"

My mind suddenly flashed to last night, when lightning cracked and I saw that the man was wearing a leather jacket and it was covered in mud. I still couldn't see his face though.

"What was he wearing?" I asked, knowing it was a weird sounding question.

"Uh...what?" Fang asked.

"JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION!" Iggy and I yelled.

"Uh...he was wearing a...uh...gray shirt and um,...ripped jeans?" Ella said, and even though I wasn't happy with her, I was so happy.

I heard Iggy sigh with relief and I spun around, and hugged him.

"It wasn't him" I whispered in his ear.

"I know" he whispered back and I smiled.
Even though I didn't know who it was, at least I knew it wasn't Fang and I knew it wasn't Iggy. Iggy has strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes.

I let go of Iggy and kissed his cheek. I know, so not like me, but who cares? I was happy. I noticed Ella glaring at me, out of the corner of my eye, but I ignored her.

He smiled.

"Um...does someone want to explain that to me?" Ella asked. I was still pissed off at her.

"Um...well...let me think. You? No" I said, before smiling and walking out of the room. I ran downstairs, to where my mom was cooking. The most amazing smell-EVER- hit me. COOKIES!

I ran into the kitchen. "mom. You made cookies?" I asked. She smiled and nodded.

"Just the way you like" she said.

I grabbed 10 and put 2 in my mouth.

"Maximum, save some cookies for your friends and sister."

"Do I have to?" I whined.

"Yes...besides, if you eat too many of these, you'll get sick."

"No I would!" I protested.

"yes"

"No!"

"yes" she said, kissing my head and walking out of the room.

"NO I WON'T" I yelled, needing to have the last word. I heard her laughing.

The doorbell rang and I ran to get it. I swung it open to see, Nudge, Angel, Gazzy and...Lissa.

"Nudge, Ange, Gaz...come on in." I said, opening the door for them. When Lissa tried to get in, I laughed.

"Uh...hi. You are not invited in this house, not ever."

"I'm hear for Fangy."

"Fangy?" I asked. "Really? Was that the best name you could think of?"

She growled-at least she tried-at me.

"Again: really?" I said, smirking.

"Move!" she said, trying to get past me. When her hand touched me, I screamed.

""OMG! GET THIS SCUM OFF OF ME!" I mimicked her from my last day at my old school.

"I'm not scum! I'm too hot to be scum!" she said. I heard Iggy and Fang come down the stairs.

"What's going on?" I heard Iggy say.

Before I could answer, Lissa started 'crying'.

"Fangy! I just came to apologize to Max...and...and she just started insulting me!" she 'sobbed'.

"What?" he asked.

"WHAT?!" I practically screamed. "No! That's not what happened! Ask them-!" I said, pointing at the younger kids, who I thought were there, but had apparently left the room.

"What, happened?" Fang almost growled, and honestly, it scared me a bit.

"She came in, and tried to push me." I said.

"I would never." Lissa fake sobbed into Fang's chest.

"I kind of believe Max" he said.

"WHAT?" Lissa shrieked. SHRIEKED.

"I believe Max...she wouldn't just insult someone without a good reason...I think.."

That's not true, but I wasn't about to say that.

She stomped her foot and then stormed out of the house, making me roll my eyes. Everybody moved into the next room to watch tv or whatever.

"W-why didn't you agree with her?" I asked, after everybody else left.

"Well, I don't know...something just...made me believe in you" he said, shrugging and turning into the next room. Something about the way he said it, made my heart race. Did I, Maximum Ride, just think that? Oh my god, I'm turning into Nudge and Ella. Ugh.
