Max's POV

"Uh, Can I help you?" I asked, I turned my head back to the room, everyone was staring at the guy in the door way.

"Can we talk?" he asked nervously. I gave a short nod and shut the door behind me. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kissed you like that. It made me look like a jerk and well I'm not. It's just...It's just hard to explain without sending you running for the hills." he gave a nervous laugh.

Try me, I wanted to say but I settled for a simple "uh-huh."

"I want you to understand, and know." He was having a hard time choosing his words.

"It was really nice for you to come here Jacob ,but we are leaving town tomorrow."

"You can't!" his eyes went wide with shock. "If it is because of me, I'm really sorry. Let me make it up to you." His face made the Bambi eyes, so I looked at my shoes. I really needed new ones.

"It's not because of you. We just need to move on." I said still staring at my shoes.

His hand cupped my chin and pulled my face up to meet his eyes, "One more day. Please. I'll make it worth it. Promise." Oh, man...

"Okay" I heard myself answer him, and I was pulled into a very tight hug; I didn't want to leave his arms. He pulled away, gave me a kiss on the cheek and walked back down the hall. When I couldn't hear him anymore I gave my forehead a good smack with the palm of my hand. I turned around and walked back into the room, everyone looked at me.

"Max, that is so cool!" Angel screamed.

"What? Whats going on?" Nudge said, looking between Angel and I.

"Max is going on a date." Fang said. I looked over at him. He looked at me with sad smile.

"Really! Cool! Is it with that guy you kissed today?" Nudge asked, I nodded, "Wow, he seems nice and can I please, please do your hair for your date?"

"Yeah, I can to your make-up too!" Angel screamed. Before I could say no, Nudge and Angel started talking about which color went with which clothes, I couldn't stop them now. I looked over at Fang, he just got up and walked out of the room.

"Max, why is there a red mark on your forehead?" Gazzy asked.

Jacob's POV

When I got home everything smacked into perspective. Max was going out with me. Me. I can not believe she said yes! I mean I can't believe that a girl like her would go on a date with me! Oh, crap; where was I going to take her on this date that I said would be worth it? I could take her to the beach, but she has been to the beach; or a walk, nope not going to work. I started pacing, and thinking. I knew where I was going to take her.

Max's POV

"Enough!" I screeched. For the past two hours, Angel and Nudge have been pulling, yanking, and redoing my hair. I grabbed a simple hair bow and my hair and put it in a ponytail. "This is good enough for me." I said, they looked as though they wanted to fuss with me.

"That's okay. We still need to work on your clothes." Angel said, running over to where my clothes are in a pile on the floor. Ugh, here we go again.
