Hey you guys!

If you haven't already, please check out my new story Hanbleceya. I'm alternating updating stories. I'd really appreciate all the support I can get on both my stories, so if you could please tell your fellow FanFictioners about my story that would be awesome :) Claire is also in Hanbleceya.

Ah, shameless self promotion... :)

The song from the last chapter was Mood Rings by Relient K. No fans? That's alright. On with the chapter?

DISCLAIMER: I ONLY OWN CLAIRE AND THE PLOT

Max

I sighed. Why would any mother, much less my own, do something as terrible as disowning her first born child! It's just makes no sense. Yeah I 'dishonored' my family and kept Angel and Gazzy instead if getting an abortion. I also became a 'teen mum' and that apparently makes your family lose all respect for you. It sucks.

During our ride back to my apartment Nudge called me. She told me useless things, like the latest fashion styles, how dreamy Iggy is, how she wishes she was famous, etc. She also told me that she was back at the apartment with the twins.

Claire looked over at me. "Are you sure you are alright? We don't have to go to the service if you aren't up to it," She looked back at he road. "But it is an excuse to see Fang. Don't even try to deny the fact that you two have something going on, or that you are going to have something go on..." She trailed off, allowing me time to think about what she had said.

I blushed slightly and put my head down. I don't need an excuse to see Fang! I could go to his apartment, or I could call him. I don't need an excuse, do I? We also do not have anything going on. I'm not not denying anything either! It's just simple facts. Facts are Facts, no question about it.

While I had the internal debate in my head Claire pulled up to my apartment. "Hey, Max? We're back at your apartment," She said as she looked for a spot to park. "Is this a good place to park?"

I looked up and nodded. She was right in front of my apartment next to a black beat up truck. Could that be Fang's by any chance? If it is, then he would be with the twins and Nudge. This could make for an interesting entrance to my home.

We went up the three steps to my apartment. I unlocked the door and slowly let it swing open. How's that for a dramatic entrance? What I saw next, I almost couldn't comprehend.

I just about burst out laughing when I went inside my apartment. Fang was there sitting in a metal chair I didn't know that I had with his hand tied up with rope. He was in front of a metal table that I also didn't know I had. All the lights were turned off except for a table lamp that was shining directly into his eyes. Nudge, Angel, and Gazzy where standing on the other side of the table interrogating him. Claire had began to laugh which was actually alerted them from their session. All four looked up at us.

"So would you guys like to tell me what's going on?" I asked.

"Well," Nudge began. "He knocked on the door, like, right after we came inside! I was, like, 'Who the heck is that?' and Gaz and Ange were, like, freaking out! Cuz, it couldn't have been you, because you would have used a key, and it couldn't have been Claire, cuz she was with you. No one ever comes to our house, and when I saw that it was a tall dude dressed in all black, I was like 'Fang? What is he doing here?' So I let him in and then we started asking questions about you and him. I asked him about all the juicy details, and he was, like, 'What?' and got all confused! So then I started to explain what I meant-"

Saved by Gazzy again. I gave him a thumbs up sign. "Basically we took your boyfriend, bound him with rope and asked, well more like Nudge asked, questions about you and him." Angel elaborated.

Great, now they think I have a boyfriend, I should set the record straight. "Fang is not my boyfriend." Nudge opened her mouth to speak, but I continued before she could say anything. "If you want to know what we have been doing, I will tell you this now, it will not have any 'juicy details' or anything of the sort, now let him go, we are going to a church service at seven. Do you three want to come?"

Nudge looked at Angel and Gazzy who both shrugged. "Nah, thanks for the offer though Max. You guys can go and scope the place out for us. Unless its Journey, because we used to go there, remember Max? Well you still sort of go. Like the Wednesday night thing. How was that by the way?"

"It was okay Nudge, I'll tell you more about it later though, okay?" I looked at the cracked clock I had hung up on the wall. It read 6:40. "We have really go to go."

"Okay, have fun you three!"

"Can you untie me first?" Fang asked. I looked down at him, smirked, then looked at Nudge.

"Don't look at me, I don't know how to untie knots! Angel and Gazzy tied him up!" That was from Nudge.

I raised my eyebrow at Angel and Gazzy, who both in return shrugged. I sighed and went over to Fang who had now stood up. "Give me your hands and follow me."

I lead him into the bathroom where I kept my scissors and cut the rope. It took a minute or two to cut all the way through it, because it was tied a couple of times around his wrist. I am impressed by my twins tying abilities, though.

When we return, Claire is having a conversation with Angel and Gazzy while Nudge is on her phone, probably talking to Iggy. When I walk up to the three the conversation ceases to exist. Claire looks around and whistles, trying to make it appear like no scheming was going on. Angel giggled and grabbed Gazzy's hand. They ran back into their room.

"What are you plotting, Claire?" I asked seriously.

"Nothing, don't worry about it." She gave a devilish grin."Shall we head out?"

Fang nodded and went out the door, glad to leave the apartment of 'crazies.' Claire and I follow him. When I was locking up they asked me, at the same time I must add, which car to take. They then began to state all the pros about their car and the cons about the other car. I just shook my head.

"We should take Fang's car. I haven't been in it yet. We were in yours all day today, Claire."

"Okay, fine." Claire huffed and got in the back seat I got in the passengers seat and Fang got in the drivers seat. Then we were off.


How was that guys? Good chapter? I made it a little longer, and when I say a little I mean a little (only 1,300+ words) since I am on my laptop C:

Next chapter will have only a little bit about their church experience, so don't worry, I'm not going to make you listen to a service...

SOTC:

May he turned 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
"Just a day" he said down to the flask in his fist,
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year."
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles,
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it.

Thanks for reviewing :3 Maybe we can get to 65?

I hope you guys all had a wonderful and safe day!
