Roommates (A Maximum Ride Fanfic)

...9...

Disclaimer: I own nothing except the plot.

Max POV

We stayed at the arcade for a few hours then headed back to the girls' house. The drive home was very eventful. We told jokes and sang the music playing on the radio, not even stopping when we passed a police car.

"I think we should play Twister!" Angel suggested later that night after we had gone home.

"No, let's play Monopoly!" Ella said.

"I don't want to play Monopoly! Max made me cry last time we played that!" Iggy whined. We all looked at him and burst out laughing.

"Max…made you…..cry?" Gazzy said wheezing.

"She made you cry when we went up in the ferris wheel and she rocked back and forth!" Iggy defended himself. We all started to crack up again.

"MAX!" Iggy and Gazzy both glared at me.

"What?! It's not my fault you two are total wimps!" I said. "Let's just play Twister."

After getting out the Twister mat we decided that Angel would be the spinner. The game was a mix of limbs and laughter. I was in a crab walk position on the bottom under Fang who was facing me. Iggy's arms gave out and he fell leaving just Fang and I.

"You're going down, Martinez." Fang said an inch above my face.

"I wouldn't be so sure of that, Ride." I said and gave him a small half smile.

"Oh, really?" He said with similar half smile.

"Right hand red," Angel told Fang. The red was on the other side of Fang. As his hand was about to cross my body his other arm gave out and he fell on top of me. Not being able to support his weight along with mine we both fell. Laughing, he picked himself up on his elbows, hovering over me.

"You gonna move anytime soon?" I asked trying to find escape.

"Nah, I like this position." He said with a smirk on his face. By "position" he meant him practically laying on top of me.

I squirmed under him while he chuckled at me. I gave up after awhile of squirming. I glared up at Fang as he smirked down at me.

"What do you want, Fang?"

"Nothing, I just like looking at you."

"AWWWWW!" Angel, Nudge, and Ella said from the background.

"Well, you got your look now let me up." He got up and held his hand out for me, but he pulled with a little more force than I expected and I bumped into his chest. He smiled down at me and pecked my lips then let me go. I walked over to the others.

Everyone was tired after a couple hours of playing games so we settled in to watch a movie. After careful debate, we decided on watching The Hunger Games. (A/N I freaking love that book!) Ella and Iggy shared the loveseat, Nudge and Gazzy sat on the couch, and Fang and I curled up on the floor.

The movie ended and my head was leaning against Fang's shoulder seeming to weigh 10 pounds. My eyelids felt heavy and my limbs like Jell-o.

"You tired?" Fang's deep voice said with an edge of amusement. I nodded and he wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me onto his lap. I snuggled deeper into him. He stroked my hair and I was having trouble keeping my eyelids open. I finally closed them and a few minutes later I was asleep.

I woke up the next morning and snuggled deeper into the pillow. When I felt the pillow move I opened my eyes. My head was buried deep into Fang's shoulder and our arms were wrapped around each other. Normally I would have moved away mortified by this display of affection, but instead I smiled and gripped Fang tighter. His warm breath blew on the top of my head.
