So What?! Spank Me!
A/N: please realize that this is a play on words. Sue Me!-meaning I don't give a rats butt anymore- is change to Spank Me! I think you'll realize why as you read.
Flair's P.O.V.
"Flair!" Max's voice boomed. I got to my feet and trotted upstairs, trying not to look worried.
When I got to their room I slowly stepped inside. There she stood. I thought of bowing, but that would probably just get me smacked. I jammed my hands in my pockets and stared at the ground.
"We told you not to leave," Max started. I nodded.
"Because we knew that you, uh, we're wanted," she continued. I didn't budge.
"Would you look up!" She ordered. My head whipped up to see her standing there, arms crossed.
"What?" I snapped. She barred her teeth and stared me down.
"You almost killed Gwen, that's what!" She screamed. The guilt hit me again. It was worse then when I found Gwen laying on the School's tiled floor.
A tear leaked from my eye. It rolled down my cheek as Max pressed on.
"And for what?! Just to save someone who really wasn't in immediate danger! Flair I've told you a million times to stay put! You put Gwen's life on the freaking line for selfish reasons!" Max's hands were now flailing.
"It wasn't selfish! No one should be kept in a cage!" I barked. Max fell silent.
"They weren't in cages!" She shrieked.
"They could've been! They were under lock and key!" I defended.
"You didn't just risk your own life, all of our lives were laid on the line! What if they would've caught you and made you talk?!" Max moved on.
"I wouldn't have!" I promised.
"We can all say that, Flair!" Max rolled her eyes.
"Gwen didn't! She didn't sing like a canary when they asked her! Heck! They even shot her!" I interrupted.
"And we are lucky that's she's faithful, but that doesn't change what could've happened, Flair. The group is expanding rapidly. Six new members? What are we gonna do with half a dozen new members? Hmm?! And considering one can't even fly well…" she went to far.
"Jes is a strong kid, Max! It's not his fault he's so young," I broke loose. She looked like she wanted to take that part back, but she didn't say it.
"He's only seven, and he's very sweet, but uh…he's weak," she whispered.
"He's keeping his humanity! Something that you failed at!" My voice was rising.
"Excuse you!" Max glared at me.
"You heard!" Oh gosh, I was using Ice's words.
"I've kept this family together long before you came here!" She bellowed.
"Don't pull that card on me! That's bull crap! And about this dysfunctional family…!" I hollered.
"You are in no place to tell me what to do!" Max snapped.
"You are in no condition to be leader! Why don't you and your emo husband just keep your noses in you're own dang business! We'd all be so much better off if you'd just back off!" I shrieked. Then we had a stare down, and I was loosing.
"I was afraid of loosing you, Flair. Don't make me regret it! Can't you just admit that you did something wrong, for once?!"
"Only if you can!"
"That was stupid Flair!"
"Saving my sister is not stupid!"
Then she was silent. Steam was about to roll out of my ears. I was really mad.
"Is that all you wanted to rant about? I'm done here," I turned and stomped off, leaving them flabbergasted.
Max is an idiot! How dare she…ugh!
But one thing was true- I put Gwen's life in danger- and I felt terrible.
Then I heard her call me back upstairs.
"I don't care anymore! Spank me!" I threw my arms in the air and stalked off, daydreaming of ripping that lady's tongue out. Stupid, stupid, STUPID!
Ok! Review! How did you like the fight between the two? What will happen next?! REVIEW!
