AN: Max and Fang have never met each other until now. They are both sixteen and living perfectly normal lives with perfectly normal adoptive parents.

But what happens when Max gets the call to come to California, thinking it's a movie shoot, when it ends up being the School.

What will Fang do?

Save the best thing that's ever happened to him or go on living his life?

Max settled down on her bed after a hearty supper, clicking on her search engine.

Her Myspace page loaded up within the blink of an eye, as she clicked and read her new messages and friend requests.

"Max!" Her little brother squealed from the other side of the door.

"What, Nathan?" Max called back, rolling her eyes as she slammed down her laptop.

"Phone!"

"All right, all right. Hold on," She slid off of her bed and walked to her door, flinging it open to find the seven year-old chatting away with her best friend Jewel.

"Nathan! Give me the phone!" Max yelled and dove for the device, only to be out-smarted by the boy.

Little brothers.

"Yeah, Jewel, Max says that she never wants to see you again and that she," Nathan giggled as Max growled and snatched air once again,

"Wants you to have all of her stuff and wants you to write 'Max is a whore' on the side of our house. Uh-huh. Okay," Nathan tossed Max the phone.

"You little lying snitch!" Max hissed as her brother took off down the stairs, laughing and cackling.

"Anyway," Max sighed and ran a hand through her hair,

"Hey, Jewel."

"Hey," Jewel was laughing,

"Did your brother just really say 'whore'?"

"Yeah. And I'm sure Mom heard it. He's going to be in big trouble when she gets a hold of him."

"Definitely. So, did you see Jason and Kate? Oh, my God. They were so making out in front of Joes on Monday," Jewel started and Max sighed, glancing out her window as she logged back onto her mail.

More messages.

And for once, she just wished that she could have that special somebody.

That special someone who she could share everything with.

Even her wings.

Looking out her window, she saw the Northern Star flash as something passed, and Max put her attention back into Jewel's chattery voice, forgetting all about it.

So how can I ever try to be better?

Nobody ever lets me in

I can still see you, this ain't the best view

On the outside looking in

I've been a lot of lonely places

But I've never been on the outside…
