Sitting in the trees next to Fang, the memories of the night before flashing throughout my eyes, I was so relieved.

I was relieved I was able to forgive him.

I was relieved he was able to forgive me.

I was so relieved he felt bad for what he did, even if it is somewhat human emotions.

I was relieved people knew we are there to help them.

I was relieved we got to have fun.

I was relieved because all these things were relieved. And almost everything that had been relieved was because of Fang.

Man, I just realized that. "That sucks."

"Hey, Fang."

"Nnn."

"Thanks."

"Mhhm...no problem whatever I did...take that Ari...ha ha"

"Are you asleep?"

"Mhm. Now leave me alone."

"You have spilt personalities, you know."

"Yeah...now get over here and cuddle with me you weird muffin. Yeah, you.. the one with the face that looks like a turkey..."

I smiled and rolled my eyes but obeyed. Probably unaware that I was cuddling with him, he wrapped his arms around me and muttered, "My turkey muffin!"

Chuckling quietly, I went to sleep as soon as I heard Iggy's alarm go off.

Fang P.O.V

I was halfway in dreamland when I heard "That sucks." I was about to ask what sucks when she turned to me. Pretending to asleep, I heard her say, "Hey, Fang."

Mumbling a incoherent, "Nnn."She thanked me for something, and I 'no problem-ed' it and muttered something about Ari. She asked me with I was asleep and I replied. Eventually I just told her to cuddle with me, talking about a muffin with a turkey face.

When she fell asleep I opened an eye and smiled. I murmured into her hair, "I love you, Max."

Lissa's P.O.V (never saw that before, did ya?)

I was perfectly, internally, freaked. Nick's sister, And Nick has wings! Ohmigosh, that's so weird! Even though I admit I really like Nick, it's nothing but physcial.

And damn, Nick's so F-in' hot, I'm not leaving him alone until we share a bed. Mmmmm...

So that's why I placed a tracker on him when I hugged him. So now I'm following them, and I'm watching Freak 1 and Freak 2 on a tree cuddling. I'm a long way away, probably three miles with very strong Binoculars. Freak 3 was up, his eyes closed but he seemed at attenion.

Ugh, Freak 1 and Freak 2 are still cuddling and it's grossing me out. His arms are wrapped around Freak 1's waist, raising her shirt slightly and gently rubbing her belly. Freak 1 is sleeping into the palm of his other hand, her hand holding his. I think they're to tightly pushed together, but neither seemed to be turned on.

It's strange. Is this what they call love?

The next morning, 5:30 A.M,

Streching and packing up the campsite, I called a flock meeting. Everyone sat in something like a semi-circle.

"As we decided eariler, we're going to find a permanent home. So I think we should start looking again. But a another state, please? Which state?"

"WISCONSIN"

"KANSAS"

"NEW YORK"

"LOS ANGELOUS!'

"Why don't we go to South Dakota?"

I was surprised. Fang had, for once, suggested a perfect idea. South Dakota, not very popular, no real big cities, a long way away from Virginia.

Perfect. "We have company." Iggy announced, not to worried. "Behind me, to the right three miles away. Let's go. Smoke bomb." And he threw down a smoke bomb and flew up. Everyone, following his lead, flew to the place he had directed.

There whipping binoculars around lamely, was Lissa. Motioning everyone to stay where they were, I flew down and gently set myself on the brach she was sitting on, barely moving the branch. She continued to look around, and finally I just coughed. "Ahem."

She nearly fell of the branch and I sighed, "Look. You've caused me a lot of misery and this," I motioned to her and the binoculars, "Is just weird. I mean your stalking F- nick. He's not going to get in bed with you anytime soon, red-hair-wonder. And I can say that because he is currently flying above us, a mere five or six feet, with a grossed out expression."

Lissa looked up, and extended her arms as in 'hug me' and squealed, "NICKY!"

Fang, instead of hugging her, hid behind me instead, peeking over my shoulder whispering, "Happy thoughts. Happy thoughts."

I sighed. Girls always had to do the dirty work.

I picked her up by her collar. "How'd you find us?"

"Not going to tell you, Freak."

"Okay then."

I dangerously dangled her over the edge of the branch, which was about a twenty foot fall.

"EEE! Tracker! Tracker!"

"Where?"

"On his back, in his shirt!"

Fang practically ripped his shirt off and glared at the tracker. Her threw away the shirt and pulled out a identical shirt. And he pulled it back on.

"Now get lost, Red-haired-wonder."

And I dropped her onto the branch and flew off.

Damn, She was ONE crazy lady.
