Fighting Till Forever

Chapter 5

Max pov
"Fang, with this war going on, I don't think it's a good idea if to get any closer." I say while we sit that afternoon eating breakfast.
"I don't want to loose you okay." He says.
"I know, alright." I say caving in "We can get engaged at the most, I don't ant us getting married while there is a war, plus I'm 17 and your 18, still a bit young to get married don't you think?" I state.
"Yeah, agreed." He says. I think this is the most I've seen Fang excited, ever.
"Maxxxxx, I'm back!" I hear Angel tell from down the hall. She comes to the kitchen with Logan and they sit down. Logan's skin all red and black, pieces of skin look like they are falling off and I try not to barf. "You should get your arm and shoulder checked out kid, it's still red." Logan says to Angel. "I'll be fine." She says and then grabs a root beer from the fridge.
We talk how the fire went and sit there for another two hours before going off our separate ways.

Fang pov

"Nudge, are you in there?" I ask.
"Come in." She says. She's listening to Beyonce and rapping along with it. She's painting her nails as well.
"What's up?" She says turning the music off.
"Okay, I need your help. Don't scream or anything but I need you to help me pick out a ring for Max. We've been....." I don't even finish before Nudge is screaming and squealing.
"Would you shut up, Martians can here you're so loud." I say. She quiets down and then I continue "As I was saying Max and I have been together since we were little kids and we finally started talking and going out. But I don't want to lose her. If something happens in this war and I don't get the chance to at least try. She might be gone forever. "
"I'll help you don't worry, I got this. Just leave it to the professional to find you the perfect ring. I expect to be payed back, just because your family doesn't mean you get a 24K silver ring for $0." She says.
I nod and leave.
2 months go by and the war is not getting any better. Nudge gave me Max's ring today, I hope to propose tonight. I'm not the best at this so I'm going to have to wing it. I'm taking her to the park on a walk, dinner and then back to the mansion. Logan has given me full access to the bike so that's what we are riding tonight. I could have borrowed Bobby's car but I didn't want to make her suspicious. "You ready?" I ask when she hops on. "Don't scratch the bike this time. And yes." I say hopping on.
The night goes great but Nudge isn't on time to take photos so I have to stall. "I hear something, maybe you could check it out?" I ask.
"Sure, be right back." Max leaves and Nudge arrives. I tell her to hide and then when Max comes strutting back saying nothing is there I bend down on one knee and ask "Maximum Ride. Will you marry me?"

Short, I know, but I want to leave suspense! -@taylorann_1426
