Behind these Midnight Eyes

Chapter 33: Behind these Midnight Eyes

Max POV

We landed on the top of the hotel Red-Haired Wonder and Sam were staying at. It wasn't even a heartbeat I discovered Fang wasn't with me anymore. I scoped the scene, hoping to see Fang jump out and give me a heart-attack. No such luck.

That's when my mind drew a blank as my eyes glazed to see…

No, it couldn't have been. I'm positive it was just a trick of my imagination. It made as much sense as a girl in the sky with kaleidoscope eyes.

Down in the hot tub, nestled into each others' arms, were none other than Sam and the Red-Horned Wonder themselves. Gosh, I had been replaced? And that quickly, by her?

The next moment Fang jumped out in front of me, a devilish grin light up his face. Then, as I stared still in dumbfounded mode, he plopped two hands full of yogurt on my hands. I looked at his face, expecting an explanation.

"After you, my lady," He smiled. There was a pause of silence, as I squished the stale tasteless yogurt in my possession.

Suddenly, he threw long shot at the two of them below. The reaction was quick and hilarious.

"Ahh!" shrieked the Red-Horned Wonder, "I told you curse of the pageant was real! What the (let's just say mother goose) is this?"

Fang didn't give Sam the chance to speak. He launched another attack straight into the mouth. Something sparked in me. Without any further thought, I got closer to the edge of the roof, and gave my arms the work out they've been wanting for the past two years. I was like an automatic pistol, using the yogurt as the ammo.

It was freaking hilarious, the undoubtedly the most fun I've had on this island. The two of them were slipping like monkeys on ice covered in yogurt, and the two of us were laughing our buns off. Every time they would try to find the source, we'd duck down, holding our sides from splitting apart.

Once we were on our knees, I giggled at Fang and spread some yogurt on his nose. Man, he looked fine either way. He then spread yogurt all over my hair. We were rolling around in the yogurt, laughing. Next thing I know, he was on top of me and pressed his lips against mine ferociously.

Behind those midnight eyes was my better half, the apple of my eyes, dare-i-say, my love. It only took my whole life, but I finally discovered what he knew all along. It just hits me, he was the one, the only. After a while of just doing what teens do, we continued the raining on their parade.

Lissa and Sam had appeared to be in a heated argument.

"I'm not a flamingo, you gerbil!" Lissa pushed Sam into the pool.

"You know what?" He said once he surfaced up. "We are over, and I want the hula outfit back!"

Then we pelted them with more yogurt.

It was indescribable pure happiness.

Later that day,

"But you guys have to watch it." Nudge said, "How can you resist the sparkly sequins and fashionably outrageous hairdos.. Ew, that one is what I call a hair-don't "Her eyes were glued to the TV for the past half an hour.

Fang took a seat and I followed, rolling my eyes.

We were all finally together, the whole flock in total harmony, bonding with stupid cheesy local shows. This one was particularly stupid.

"Now we have the pleasure of Miss Lissa," the TV boldly announced. And there she was, walking onto the stage clean as a rose, yogurt-free. Ugh.

"And look at that posture, so graceful, so elegant, certainly one that-" The TV announcer was cut off."SPLASH!"

"AHHHH! Not again!" the camera closed up to Lissa's head erupting from the Koi pond, her cheeks redder than any blush could have made them.

My eyes immediatedly turned to Fang's in a did-you-just-see-what-I-saw? Angel giggled behind us. "That's much better." Instantly, we turned to her.

"What? I had to, Fang's thoughts told me too."

"Who wants to watch this with frozen yogurt?" the Gasman came up behind Angel.

I glared at the TV. Then I felt a reassuring tap on my hand that was already entwined with Fangs. He gave me a smirk that melted my insides. Despite all the ribbons she could have recieved, I knew right then, I won.
