Expectations
Epilogue
Thank you to everyone who read and reviewed. I really hope that you enjoyed this story. This is the last chapter. This is just wrapping stuff up. I'm considering a sequel but I haven't decided yet.
Note to TIGER and LILY: Well I'm sorry that you found what I wrote so "HORRIBLE! SICK! PERVERTED! TWISTED AND NOT FAIR! GET RIDE OF IT IMMEDIATELY FOR THE SAKE OF MMY FREAKING SANITY!" I actually had a huge paragraph written out to you, a whole page on Microsoft Word. I was really angry, buy then I went over it and realized that I was a bit rude. All I want to know is what is so bad about it. You didn't really explain, so explain what is soooo absolutely horrendous. I don't mind constructive criticism but there was nothing constructive about that.
Max POV: (6 months later)
Hey readers! It's Max here. Well you left off with us still on the ship up north. Well we are home now in the states. We have been for a couple months already. We're living the life now. Apparently Jeb worked something out with the government. They kind of owed us since we saved all their lives…
Now we're living happily ever after… sorta.
"Gazzy stop annoying Total!"
"Where is my other shoe?"
"Who moved the cinnamon?"
"You cretan. You aren't fit to lick the mud off my paws!"
"I can't find my shoe! You know the purple one!"
"Someone moved my BOMBS!"
"Where did Total go?"
"Hello do you all want to eat breakfast or what? Who moved the cinnamon?"
"My SHOE!"
Ahhh the drama! Anyways back to what I was saying. Jeb worked it out so we didn't have to go back to that school that they built… thank god. Though we all have to take online classes… but it's better than normal school at least. So we got a house in California on a beach. It's really secluded and no more freezing weather! Yes!
Everyone is pretty content. I've been talking to Jeb lately and he has been trying to help me understand the whole voice thing. It is really complicated but he's been a big help. I still don't trust him completely, I don't know if I ever will. But I'm letting him back into my life, though I'm watching him like a hawk.
My mom and Ella visit us all the time. They don't live too far away and my mom worries about us. It's all pretty good.
"Max do you know where my shoe is?" Nudge ran into the living room where I was channel surfing.
"Nope Nudge, did you try looking under your bed?" I replied. She ran upstairs probably to check under her bed. I felt a prickling at the back of my neck. Without even breaking my pattern of channel surfing I said, "Stop doing that!"
"What breathing?" I heard a low voice say from behind me. I just rolled my eyes and stopped on the Oxygen channel. Ohhh they're playing Pride and Prejudice. Ella made me read the book last time she was here and I've got to say it's really good; for a sappy love story that is.
Fang flopped down next to me on the couch and scrunched his face up at my choice. "You seriously want to watch this?" He grumbled.
"No I stopped on this channel because I don't want to watch this." I retorted.
Fang rolled his eyes but I knew he wasn't offended. He just sat there silent while I watched my movie. We've actually gone pretty much back to normal just with some small changes. Fang is back to being silent and one word answers, but he smiles and laughs much more often now. I'm still sarcastic but not as much as before. Also Fang and I kept to the not being mushy thing… usually.
Every now and then we get a little mushy. I remember once Jeb stayed with us for over a week. So one day Fang asked me if I wanted to go flying. I said sure and that I need to stretch my wings. So I followed him and he flew for about a mile before he landed so I followed. As soon as I had landed Fang was kissing me. I was just sort of stunned. So we sat down on the sand and when I asked him what that was all about he just said that he hadn't been able to do that for a while, so thus he just had to kiss me again or he'd die.
See that's what I mean by mushy. Anyways that's enough about us. Iggy and Gasman have been experimenting with bombs and I've been confiscating them, but more and more just pop up. I doubt that will ever change. The other day they blew up a tree. Why? Because they're just dumb like that. They're still grounded… yea I'm still the bossy leader.
"I found my shoe!" Nudge ran in, "Ohh Pride and Prejudice." So she plopped down on the couch too. Angel and Total walked in and Total wanted to watch too, apparently P & P is his favorite movie. Iggy came in with plates full of French toast and Gazzy followed him in too. So the whole family sat around the TV eating.
After we finished the movie Iggy and Fang went to wash the dishes. I took the others outside to play. Gazzy, Nudge and Angel kicked around a soccer ball and I went to the Swings.
Swinging really is sort of like flying. I was off in La La Land with my eyes closed when I felt warm hands on my back. My eyes popped open and I looked behind me to see Fang grinning. I smiled back at him and turned around watching Iggy join the kids in the game. I saw Iggy and Gazzy were against Angel and Nudge. Iggy made a goal on Nudge and he high fived Gazzy.
Nudge and Angel gave each other a look and suddenly Gasman and Iggy fell backwards onto their butts with confused expressions on their faces. Nudge clapped while Angel curtseyed. I started laughing along with Nudge and Angel. Iggy and Gasman ran after the girls and started to tickle them. I was too busy laughing to notice that I wasn't moving anymore and was silent until I felt Fang hug me from behind.
"Everything is pretty good now." Fang mumbled in my ear.
"Perfect," I agreed.
"Fang let go of me to take hold of the chains and spin me around so I was facing him. He leaned forward to kiss me. After about a minute I heard the front door slam shut and my mom and Jeb say, "We're here."
Fang groaned and hit his head lightly with my shoulder.
Sorry it took me so long to end it. Not my best chapter and I don't think it flows but I like the idea of it if not the actual writing.
I hope you liked it. This is cheesy but I found it cute. And I'm a sap for happy endings… so yea.
I hope you enjoyed the story. I want to thank everyone who has read and reviewed.
Thanks
