Hi there awesome people!

Ok, honestly I have had no interest in writing any time soon; like I am so lazy it's not even funny.

But today I got a review from Erin319, and suddenly I had a burst of something, so here I am typing away for you guys.

To: apples are rubbish – No, I have not dated any one, but when I do, I am probably going to date a guy… because I am a girl. :P And no I have never been bullied, but my friend has. And I have not read/seen any anime/magna; I'm not really into that kind of stuff. But thanks for your review!

And to everyone else who has reviewed as well!


Chapter 31 – The Plan

1 New Message From: Lissa

I looked down at my phone again; it was the hundredth message from her. In an hour.

I groaned loudly and threw the phone across my room; it made a loud thud against the wall above my desk.

I don't want to talk to you! I want to talk to Max!

I even stopped by her house after school; apparently she was "taking a shower." I ran a hand through my hair, my fingers gliding through my black fringe.

"Fang! Are you home Fang?" The front door burst open and I could hear Angel running through the living room. I heard her footsteps lead to my room; my door would swing open any second…

"Fang, guess what?" She slammed open the door and raced across my room, jumping onto my bed and landing on my stomach. I closed my eyes, taking in her weight and then opened them, her bright blue eyes twinkling down into my obsidian ones.

I really wasn't in the mood for talking, but I could never say no to Angel. She was my weak point.

"What happened Angel?" My voice was low and sounded rough, I probably sounded like a jerk.

She opened her mouth, then frowned at me, her eyebrows crinkling together.

"What's wrong Fang?" I knew she would notice, nothing gets by this girl.

"Nothing," I smiled and shifted into a sitting position, I moved her until she was sitting on my lap. "Now, what were you going to tell me?"

She crossed her arms and stared at me, her eyes searching mine intently.

"Fang… something is wrong. Did you and Max get into a fight?"

Jeez, talk about getting right to the point.

I sighed and dropped my gaze, I could never hide anything from Angel; it's like she could read my mind.

Her index finger reached under my chin and she brought my head back up, her lips in a small smile. I smiled too, and reached for her hand, my fingers enclosing her little fist.

"Sometimes, I hate that you are so smart." Her smile got wider as she leaned into my chest, her head resting on my forearm.

"What happened Fang, I thought you liked Max."

I leaned into the headrest and looked down at her blond curls. "I do Angel, but it's complicated. It's a long story."

If only she knew how complicated the situation really was, she would never understand.

Her head moved up and she looked at me, "I have time."

We both smiled and I shook my head, "Angel…"

"Please Fang, I promise I wont interrupt."

She was so stubborn, now I had to tell her. Me and my big mouth…

So there I was, Fang Harding telling my younger sister about my love relationship. I told her everything, although I'm sure she knew some things already. She never once said a word, only listened and soaked in the information I was saying.

"And that's when she saw me kissing Lissa, and then she was gone."

I finished my monologue and looked up at the ceiling, I could still see Max's face when she walked through the door.

"I hate Lissa."

I quickly looked at Angel who was now lying down, her head resting on my lap.

"She did that on purpose, just so Max could see. I wish I could rip her guts out, tear off her head, that bitc…"

"Angel!" I cut her off before she could finish, although I was thinking the same thing.

She giggled and sat up, her head turning to look at me. "Sorry Fang, I went too far that time."

I laughed at her, "You think?"

She laughed with me, then leaned down, her head resting on my right shoulder.

"But Fang, you have to talk to Max. You guys are best friends, maybe even boyfriend and girlfriend. You need to defend yourself, tell her it wasn't your fault. You need to get her back."

She sounded so much older, like she was my mother. Her face was set strong and she looked at me with such intensity, it was kinda scary.

"But how Angel? She won't even talk to me."

She put her lips to the side and furrowed her eyebrows; her "thinking face."

After a couple minutes of silence, I groaned again and threw my head in my hands, it was no use.

She would never listen to me, never talk to me, and not be with me. I could not live without Max, she is my best friend.

"I got it!"

I looked up at Angel, her face in a huge grin and her little finger pointed up, like as if a light bulb went off.

I stared at her and gave her a confused face. She suddenly put her hands together and rubbed them like an evil scientist.

Oh no, I knew that face…

"Okay, here's what we are going to do…"

Max's POV

That week at school I avoided Fang at all costs.

I couldn't even think about him… okay fine, I did think about him. But it was one time people! Jeez, it's not like I'm going to go to prison…

I spent most of my time with Dylan actually, the enemies 'brother'.

Ah well, hopefully it'll piss her off.

"But Liesel, wouldn't you want a kiss from me?"

I tried not to laugh as Dylan stepped closer to me, his character voice sounded so not like Dylan.

I looked down at my script, "Why would I want to kiss you Rudy, you smell." I hid my smirk as Dylan pretended to look hurt, his hand covering his heart.

"And cut! Great job Dylan and Max, we will finish the last few scenes next week." Our English teacher smiled as we packed our things, she was happy with mine and Dylan's 'acting' skills. We had started our play rehearsals for our novel, and we needed to work on it.

When we stepped outside for lunch, I saw Ella and Nudge walking ahead of us. Ever since I stopped talking to Fang, I've been distant from everyone else. I mean I still talk to them, but not as much as I used to. And I missed them.

I walked a little faster, trying to catch up to them when Fang stepped out from the hallway and met up with them. I slowed down as I watched the three walk ahead, Ella hugging Fang with her left arm.

I stopped and just stared as they turned into the main quad, their bodies disappearing from view.

"You should just talk to him, hear what he has to say." Dylan's voice came up from behind and I gazed up at him.

"No, I still need… time. Maybe he doesn't like me after all. I would look stupid running after him like a lost puppy."

He put his arm around my shoulder and gaze a small squeeze.

"Max, he would be so stupid not to like you any more. He would be making a huge mistake." I smiled and leaned into his side, his strong shoulder supporting my head.

"And I've dealt with my sister, let's just say we didn't have such a nice 'family meeting'." He smiled down at me, his grin lighting up my face.

"Thanks Dylan, but I think I should wait. I need to clear my head before I do anything stupid."

He chuckled, his chest rumbling from the sound, "Max, when do you not do anything stupid?"

I joined his laugh, and punched him in the stomach lightly, "Shut up."

We walked to the lunch area, already the lunch lines huge, as they were everyday. We tried to pick the shortest line, but it was no use with people cutting in and out.

As I was getting my water, I quickly glanced up and found black eyes looking into mine. He was across the lines, but I could clearly see him. He turned to face me, and I turned towards him. I could tell he wanted to say something; his mouth was open in a small 'o'.

Should I go and talk to him? What do I say? Do I turn and run?

"Max!" Our connection was broken when I turned to whoever was calling me. Iggy came running up to me, his face was so bright and had the biggest smile I had ever seen that boy make.

"Max, I got in!"

I shook my head and stared at my brother, dumbfounded.

"What? Got in to where?"

He held up a letter and put it in front of my face. I read the first line,

Congratulations Iggy Ride, we have accepted you into Notre Dame College. We look forward to seeing you this coming fall!

Oh my gosh! He got accepted!

I laughed out loud and ran into his arms, hugging him around the waist at tightly as I could.

He wrapped his arms around my back and lifted me into the air, spinning me around.

"Iggy, I'm so happy for you! You got accepted!"

He set me down as Dylan came up behind me, "What's all the commotion? Iggy, you're making a scene."

I stepped to the side as Iggy handed him the letter, seconds later Dylan was also being spun in the air.

I just don't know how he lifted him so high…

"Dude, congrats man! That's awesome, I'm so happy for you!" We all smiled as Iggy started jumping and laughing his butt off. This is a whole new side of the Igster.

"Well, I gotta go spread the word!" He smiled at both of us and ran off, no doubt about to tell Marilyn.

"I'm so happy for him, he's going to do amazing." I nodded at Dylan as we walked off to go eat our lunch.

And I totally forgot about those dark eyes that had been watching the whole time.


Yay!

The Igster got accepted to college!
