My Hero[Discontinued]

Chapter 14

Don't listen to song until you get to car!

"Adam, I'm fine!" I snapped. Everyone exits the call, then I hear a knock at the door. I motion him in. He comes in and shuts the door. After a minute of silence, "I'm sorry, Adam. There's a lot of things on my mind, confusing things."

"It's okay, Maggie. Let's go."

"Wait."

"What?"

"Don't you want to know what's going on?"

"I do, but I don't ask. You know this...."

"I need to talk to you."

"Alright, give me one minute." He walks to the door, open it and sticks his head out. "Max, Ross, Michael!" They come and stand in a line, hands like a salute pose. I laugh. "Go wait for Maggie and I in the Office Antics room."(Which is across the office.) He closes the door as they walk over there, laughing, then sits on the floor. I sit next to him and almost cry. "What's up?"

"I tried asking him out...."

"What'd he say?" He says, in a protective voice.

"Nothing. I didn't get to ask him."

"Why?" He says, jokingly.

"You know why." I say, seriously. "Adam, I can't tell him I like him, though. You know I've never liked a guy like this. I GIGGLE around him."

"Yeah, I've noticed...."

"Adam, I know, deep down you really don't want me to talk to him."

"How would you know?"

"Umm, you're a protective brother, and I'm trying to ask out your second best friend?"

He hugs me. "Mag, I wouldn't have you give up what you want, though. You know this."

"I know, but I'm scared."

"Of?"

"Rejection."

(A/N, aka, Author's Note)

I just noticed I wrote why I haven't told a person I like that I like them..... Anyway, sorry, back to the story.

"Maggie. You're not scared of a lot of things. Just treat this like a fear of heights."

"I can't, after my accident."

"Oh, right, sorry. Then, try to treat this like your fear of crossing bridges." (Yes, it's a real thing.)

"Oh, you mean Gephyrophobia. I could try." I think for a minute. "Wait, Adam? What's your other gift?" 

"Something." He says, mysteriously. Then I hear him mumble, "Or someone." 

"Adam!"

"You heard that?"

"Yeah! What the fuck?"

"Maggie, I'm just trying to help."

"I know, I'm sorry. Let's just go." I get up and help him up. We get the others and head downstairs, piling into Ross's car. He turns on the radio, and my favorite song comes on! (Above. Sorry if you don't like it, but I thought it was perfect, especially after the whole Smash Bros. flash back, thing.)

I sing along and look at Adam, who sat in the back with Max and I, Max being in the middle and Adam and I on either side. He smiled and looked out the window.

(Max's POV)

Maggie was singing along to the song on the radio, that almost described my life. She looked over to Adam and he looked out to the window. Then, I feel her slip her hand into mine and lock her fingers with mine. I squeeze her hand, gently, letting her know I was okay with it. I couldn't stop smiling, so when we got to the restaurant, Michael asked, "What is up with you smiling?"

(Your(Maggie's)POV)

  When we got to the restaurant, Michael asked Max, "What is up with you smiling?"  I look at him and he seriously has a smile on his face.
