So I decided to add another chapter because I felt like the other one was too short& I have nothing better to do, being grounded during spring break and all. Awesome right ?

The boy and I walked into the classroom right when the tardy bell rang. I quickly took a seat next to Nudge and the boy sat next to me. Getting really annoyed at calling him 'the boy' I asked his name.
"Fang," He said. I gave him a questioning look. "Nickname. Real names Nick." Does he know how to speak whole sentences? Then he asked, "Yours?" Guess not.
"Max." I said as the teacher, Mrs. Barry walked to the front of the room.
"And you're making fun of my name?" He asked. That really pissed me off.
"You got a problem with my name?" I asked raising both my voice and one eyebrow.
"You got a problem with mine?" He countered.
"Maximum, stop harassing the new boy." I heard Mrs. Barry's voice say. Tearing my gaze from the smirking Fang, I looked at Mrs. Barry. She introduced herself to the new people in the class and droned on about what an exciting trimester this was gonna be and all that jazz. As she talked, I let my ind drift to Fang. Normally I don't get all mushy and all 'oooh boys!' like Nudge, the girl I'm sitting next to does, who happens to be one of my best friends. But Fang. There's just something about him.
I realized I had been staring at him and quickly looked up to see Mrs. Barry assigning English books to everyone. "Nick, come up and get your book. You have number 56." then a few names later, "Max, you're number 64." As I sat back down, I saw a note sitting on my chair. As I opened it up, I saw Nudge eyeing me and was greeted with the sight of her bubbly handwriting.
Oooh, who's cute new boy? Do you know him? How long have you known each other? Why didn't you tell me about him, Max? He's soooo cute. Are you guys dating?
If you think that was bad, wait until you hear her actually talk, she doesn't stop. My friends and I call her Nudge Channel. I replied quickly, hiding the top part under my book so Fang wouldn't see.
Nudge! No, I just ran into him in the hall for the first time like 10 minutes ago. I'll tell you everything later.
I handed the note back to Nudge and she read it and folded it back up.
When we had about 10 minutes of class left, Mrs. Barry let us have time to talk quietly until the bell.
Fang turned to me, "Where is Mr. Hollenbeck's room?" He asked.
"Oh, I dunno. Why don't you ask someone who has a better name than me?"
He rolled his eyes. "Max, I was kidding around. And you made fun of my name too!"
"No I didn't. And I was right anyway, it was a nickname, not you're real name, Nick."
"Max is a nickname, too, Maximum."
"Whatever, Fangy." I said rolling my eyes. I started to turn towards Nudge.
"Don't call me that." He said so darkly I might have been scared, you know, if I wasn't Maximum Ride. I don't scare easily.
"Awh, why not Fangy?" I asked in a whiny voice.
"Alright whatever, Maxie-poo." He said matching my girly voice.
I glared. "That's not even funny."
"It kinda is." Said Nudge, I forgot she was there! Which is really really weird, because she usually never shuts up. "You two are so cute! And would totally make the perfect couple if you were to date. Is that weird though? Me saying that? But it's totally true! I mean I don't really know you Fang, but Max is totally nice... well most of the time. Okay, some of the time. But she's being extremely nice to you for some reason, its weird. Usually she's all 'ew, boys are stupid. Lets kill em all' but not with you! So you should totally mmph- " I slapped a hand over her mouth. See what I mean? Nudge Channel.
I opened my mouth to apologize for Nudges motor mouth, but the bell rang.
Quickly shoving my book into my bag, I started toward the door, when Fang stopped me. "So Maxie, would you show me where Mr. Hollenbeck's room is?"
"If you don't call me Maxie."
"If you don't call me Fangy."
"Uh-uh. Its either one or the other. Either I show you to class or don't call you Fangy, pick one." I said, walking out the door.
"Well-"
I cut him off realizing it was an excuse to miss some of class. "Just kidding, Mr. Hollenbeck's room is on the opposite side of the school so it will give me an excuse to be late to class. Do you need to go to your locker?" I asked.
He shook his head.
"Okay, come with me to mine then."
At the locker next to mine, was standing the Red Haired Wonder(RHW), Lissa. Her mouth was hanging wide open as she practically drooled over Fang. "Hey, Max, who's your friend?"
"Shut up and move," I growled at her.
"Awh, now Maxie," Fang chuckled at 'Maxie'. "Why don't you be a good little girl, and introduce me to your hot friend?"
I turned around and looked at Fang. "Fang, this is Lissa. She's head of the cheerleading squad and falls 'in love' with every guy and then a week later, she dumps him. She's probably dated almost every guy in this school, I bet if you randomly asked someone, he'd say he's dated her."
"That is not true!" She exclaimed.
"Fang ask a random guy." He looked around and asked a guy that was in our English class, Phil. "Hey," He stopped him, and the guy turned around.
"Yeah?" Asked Phil, looking like he was in a hurry.
"Have you dated her?" He asked gesturing to Lissa.
"Unfortunately," Said Phil. "Gotta go to class, see ya. And take my advise dude, don't get caught up in that."
I started laughing. "See?" I asked Fang.
Lissa fumed, her whole face red. She looked like a giant tomato with her hair and her face practically the same color.
The minute bell rang and I quickly opened my locker, as RHW was still fuming beside me. I grabbed what I needed and started walking towards Fang's class.
"Wait!" shouted Lissa, "Here." She said as she handed Fang a note. Then she walked away, half of her ass hanging out of her mini skirt. Disgusting.
Trying not to gag, I showed Fang to his class room. "Alright, we both have A lunch after this hour so meet me back at my locker after class?" I asked. He just nodded, muttering a 'sure'. "Oh, and sorry about Lissa. She's... well we don't have time for this now, you're already late. So Ill see you after class." And with that I walked toward Calculus.
