FAXimum Ride: It Begins HERE
Chapter Six: A Little Problem

_{We flew back in the direction we came from, back to the flock. They were probably wondering why the hell it took so long just to get some fast food. After all, fast food is meant to be fast. Of course I would tell them what happened…well, some of it anyway. Angel would soon know everything. It was annoying having to live with a mind reader.
Fang flew as close to me as he could, keeping an eye on me.
I only just recently discovered that there is more to him than his silent, emo self. A lot more.
I sighed, staring at Fang.
"What?" he said, giving me a funny look.
I was silent for a moment. I could see the clearing.
"You" I said, and then aimed down towards the clearing. He copied my action, but said nothing. I skidded to a halt in the clearing, and Angel skipped out to great me, followed by Nudge. I handed Nudge the bags of food that Fang had thoughtfully picked up on the way back.
"Oooooh yum!" squealed Nudge, and then looked me up and down. "Nice clothes, Max! You look like you're at least 16!"
Pfft. No thanks to Fang.
"Yeah, I…kind of fell in a lake, and needed new clothes" I muttered.
Nudge gasped.
"How did you fall in a lake? Wait, why did you fall in a lake?! How did you get out? OMG was it cold!? It's absolutely freezing this time of the month…not that I would know what month it is. Maybe we should get a calendar, hey Max. Can we get a calendar?! We could-" I clamped my hand over Nudge's mouth.
"I'm too tired to explain" I said, yawning to prove my point, "Angel, you wanna do the honors?"
"Ooooh yes okay, Max!" Angel exclaimed, nodding her head, a huge grin on her face.
"Angel…" I began, giving her a warning look.
"Max, do you really think I would?" asked Angel innocently.
You never know with you, I thought. I knew Angel could here me, and I really only wanted her to tell everyone the minor details.
Angel pouted and I waved her away. Gazzy, Iggy and Nudge looked very confused, as Angel lead them away to tell them what happened. Leaving the other incidents out of it, I hoped.
For now, I just wanted to go to sleep, so I settled down underneath a tree. Fang sat just inches from me.
I was soon having a weird dream involving a lake, McDonald's, and converses.
Yes, my head was seriously messed up.

My eyes fluttered open as a cool breeze blew through the trees. My stomach seemed extra cold, so I looked down. While I was sleeping, my singlet had rided up almost to my bra. Hehe crap. I quickly pulled it back down before anyone noticed.
I looked around.
Fang had moved to a tree a few meters away from me. His head rested on his hands, like he was…depressed, or something.
I moved over to sit next to him.
"Fang?" I whispered, resting my hand on his shoulder. He shivered, so I took my hand away.
He looked up, bit his lip, and then sighed in relief.
I gave him the most confused look I had.
"Self-control" he murmured, which made me even more confused. He looked at the rest of the flock. They were asleep.
"Um…I don't know how to say this but…" whispered Fang, biting his lip, "Well, my…hormones…are getting harder to…er, control" Fang gave me a desperate look. I was speechless. If I could've said something, it would've been:
!!!!!!!!!!!!
I recovered just enough to say "Huh?"
Fang sighed.
"Max, you're too hot for your own damn good" he muttered.
I blinked, and continued to stare at him. I still didn't get what he was saying.
He reached out and ran a finger down my stomach, making me shiver.
"Try and keep your shirt down, Max" he chuckled.
Oh.
"Was it that much of a problem?" I asked innocently. He laughed quietly.
Suddenly, Angel was standing over Fang with her hands on her hips.
"Fang! Stop already!" she shouted at him. I looked from Angel to Fang. Was…Was Fang…blushing!? I really couldn't tell.
Gazzy stood next to Angel, rubbing his eyes. He yawned.
"Wha's Fang doing?" he asked sleepily, looking at the three of us.
Fang opened his mouth to say something, but Angel cut him off.
"Fang was just telling me a scary story, but it was too scary so I told him to stop" Angel told Gazzy. It sounded so true I almost believed it myself.
Except I didn't, of course.
Nudge skipped up next to Gazzy.
"So Max…" she began, "about that hotel…"
"Oh yeah" I said. I had completely forgotten.
"Well" I continued, "If we want to get there before tonight, we should head off"
"Ooooh yes yes! Like now!" said Nudge excitedly, "Now, Max?"
"Sure" I said, shrugging, "Why not?"
And we were off.}
