FANG POV
I followed Ms. Martinez inside. Everyone except Ella was crying- and she looked like she would cave any minute. Max headed upstairs as I started to tell her mom what I'd witnessed. She seemed not to have wanted to relive what could have possibly been the worst moments of her life.
As I recounted the events, I saw Ms. Martinez's face change from sorrow, to shock, to disbelief and finally anger. She didn't interrupt me once. When I was all done, she said,
"Thank you, Nicholas, for saving my daughter." I nodded. "But listen to me, and listen to me carefully. If you ever overstep your boundaries and tell me that I don't know my own daughter, it will be the last mistake you ever make. Are we clear?" Her voice had fallen to deadly tones.
Well, now we knew where Max got her personality from.
"Yes, ma'am," I answered.
"Good. Now would you like to stay for breakfast?" she asked with a smile.
"No, thanks." I told her. "I have to get back to my little sister."
"Aren't your parents home?"
"No. They went out for the week. They should be back today, though."
"Alright. Well when they get home, could you ask them to give me a call, please?" she asked, handing me her business card. "My home phone's on it."
"No problem, Ms. Martinez," I said as I headed out.
When I got home, I saw a silver BMW parked outside. Mom and Dad were home.
"Hey, Mom. 'Sup, Dad," I said when I saw them in the family room.
"Nicholas," my mom greeted me sternly. "Where were you?"
"Dropping a friend home," I answered.
"And, just out of curiosity, who might that friend be?" Dad asked.
"Max."
"I thought Angel said that a girl was here," Mom said suspiciously.
"Max is a girl," I responded slowly.
"Did her parents know that she was here?"
"Yeah. Her mom knows," I said, realizing that they thought I had brought a girl over and 'done stuff". "And as a matter of fact, her mom wants to speak to you." I tossed the business card that Ms. Martinez had given me at my parents and stormed upstairs.
I was going to find Angel and wring her pretty, little blond neck.
A/N: *screams and hides behind the creepy bookcase* I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry. I've been super busy. I haven't even been able to give the books i intend to publish attention. Pleease don't kill me. And I'm really busy even now. The only reason I'm able to upload now is because I don't have any exams tomorrow. This set of exams is really important, cause it helps to determine if i go on the Honors' list when i graduate next year. Also, I've entered a competition and it's really taking up alot of my time. Again SSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRR RRRRRRRRRR sorry!
