Maximum Ride's Big Chase

Part 10

Wow. I'm on my 10th chapter. In what? About a week? Anyways, on with the story!!!

Fang's POV:

I could tell after we got home, wow, never thought I'd say home and be talking about Max and me, oops sorry rambling.

Anyways, after we got home from our ride through town, I could tell Max wasn't herself. She was putting on an act, and I was determined to find out what was wrong with her.

"Max, you alright?" I started my questioning. She gave me a look that said I was crazy, then she raised an eyebrow and asked,"uhh... yeah, why?" Man I loved the way she looked when she made that face...

"You've seemed off ever since the ride." I stated. She sighed, knowing I wasn't going to give up till she told me, she gave in," I seen this kid going into a 'No Trespassing' zone in the woods, it's nothing."

Knowing there was more to it, because if it was nothing she would still be herself, I quietly said," if it was nothing, you wouldn't be acting like it was something." She glared at me.

"Fine." She snapped," I don't have a good feeling about it. Just let it go Fang it's probably nothing." Not wanting to upset her more, I let it go.

I now had yet another thing added to my list to ask her. Well I really only had 2 things to find out that she wouldn't tell me. Number one, her dad. And number two, what her gut feeling is telling her.

'You know what? I'll stop pestering her about it,' I thought,' we can go explore woods behind our house.'

There was forest area everywhere, it would be nice to get out and explore it. "Max," I shouted, she came out of our room, looking at me in confusion. "Wanna go explore the woods?"

I smiled, it was the smile I knew she couldn't resist, I know this because her eyes light up anytime I smile. This was my smile for Max.

Just as I thought, her eyes lit up and she smiled back," sure."

She disappeared back into our room and came back out with her black combat boots on," let's go." She  basically skipped to the door.

Turning around and giving me a flashing smile, she rushed," come on, I wanna see things." I snapped out of my little trance, smiled, and followed her.

We had been walking down a trail we had found for about five minutes, enjoying the comfortable silence, when I randomly announced," You know, we never finished 20 questions..." She looked at me, thought about it for a second, then smiled and said," My turn."

Rolling my eyes I waited for her question," why did you want to 'explore' the woods with me?" I was at a loss of words, what do I say?

"Well..." I drawled," I really like your company, and thought it would be better to go and explore instead of doing nothing."

That was a half lie, I love her company, not just like it, but I did want to do something rather than nothing. She studied my face than nodded at my answer. 

I was thinking of something to ask her, not noticing our surroundings, but Max had noticed them.

One minute I was standing on a ledge by her, the next being shoved off of it and falling through the air. Shocked I didn't have time to process what happened before I hit water.

Oh, she hadn't pushed me to my death like I thought. We had been standing over a small body of water on a ledge that over looked it. I was too lost in my thoughts to noticed.

As I surfaced I seen Max clutching her sides laughing, "you scream...like a girl!" She got out between her fit of laughter.

Glaring at her I yelled," get in here so I can get you back!" I moved to the shore to take of my shoes and socks. I seen Max making her way down to where I was at.

Taking in the scenery I noticed a small waterfall, and it looked like there was a cave behind it. "Next time pay attention," a smiling Max came up to me.

Already barefoot, but she had taken off her shirt, leaving her shorts on. I let my eyes travel her body, she was toned, had a nice tan, and great abs.

She snapped her fingers in front of my face," my eyes are up here." I jerked my head up, opened my mouth, then closed it, I probably looked like a fish.

She started laughing, then ran into the water. Joining her, I splashed water on her," Your so on!!" She shouted, splashing me back.

By the end of our splash war, we were laughing so hard we were having a hard time swimming.

We linked arms and started floating, after about five minutes Max let out a sigh, and stopped floating, forcing me to stop floating also.

"Wanna go check out that cave under the waterfall?" I asked, she nodded, then suddenly yelled," Race you!"

I wasn't counting on her being a fast swimmer, she shot off. I had trouble keeping up with her, she was only a foot ahead of me. I'd like to say I won, but I didn't.

We both were awed by the sight under the waterfall. Everything had a bluish tint to it, and there was a good size ledge that could fit the both of us.

We pulled ourselves up onto it. Max shivered, so I draped an arm over her, "cold?" I smirked, already knowing the answer.

She lightly blushed, and sent a glare my way. Leaning down, I pressed my lips to hers, she kissed me back. Smiling onto our kiss I thought, 'man I love her lips.'

Pulling back, I rested my forehead against hers. She smiled at me, have I mentioned how much I love that smile?

"It's my turn for the question." I stated, she raised an eyebrow, silently asking me what I meant. I continue, "will you be my girlfriend?" I was nervous for her answer, I know what you're thinking Fang Nervous? But this is Max we're talking about.
