“Oh, look, the lights are so pretty,�� I said dreamily, having just noticed
them.
I smiled at the way the lights were dancing overhead, pink and yellow and
blue. I felt some pressure on my arm and thought, I should look over and see
what’s going on, but then the thought was gone, sliding away like Jell-O off a
hot car hood.
“F���Բ�?��
“Yeah. I’m here.��
I struggled to focus on him. “I’m so glad you’re here.��
“Yeah, I got that.��
“I don’t know what I’d do without you.�� I peered up at him, trying to see
past the too-bright lights.
“You’d be fine,�� he muttered.
“No,�� I said, suddenly struck by how unfine I would be. “I would be totally
unfine. Totally.�� It seemed very urgent that he understand this.
Again I felt some tugging on my arm, and I really wondered what that was
about. Was Ella’s mom going to start this procedure any time soon?
“It’s okay. Just relax.�� He sounded stiff and nervous. “Just...relax. Don’t
try to talk.��
“I don’t want my chip anymore,�� I explained groggily, then frowned.
“Actually, I never wanted that chip.��
“Okay,�� said Fang. “We’re taking it out.��
“I just want you to hold my hand.��
“I am holding your hand.��
“Oh. I knew that.�� I drifted off for a few minutes, barely aware of
anything, but feeling Fang’s hand still in mine.
“Do you have a La-Z-Boy somewhere?�� I roused myself to ask, every word an
effort.
“Um, no,�� said Ella’s voice, somewhere behind my head.
“I think I would like a La-Z-Boy,�� I mused, letting my eyes drift shut
again. “Fang, don’t go anywhere.��
“I won’t. I’m here.��
“Okay. I need you here. Don’t leave me.��
“I won’t.��
“Fang, Fang, Fang,�� I murmured, overwhelmed with emotion. “I love you. I
love you sooo much.�� I tried to hold out my arms to show how much, but I
couldn’t move them.
“Oh, jeez,�� Fang said, sounding strangled.”

“I was breathless, talking as fast as I could. I was afraid if I stopped talking, even for a second, I’d start sobbing again.

“Whoa, there.�� Fang smiled and reached up, tracing a hand down the side of my face, winding strands of my hair around his fingers. “Stop talking and let me just tell you how great it is to wake up staring at your face. Okay?”

“He nuzzled my neck, inhaling deeply. “Mmm. You smell so good.��

“Oh, yeah,�� I said, smirking. “I call this new perfume ‘Le Jungle grime et tropical BO.�� ��

“Dirt and sweat. Very sexy.”

“Max.
God, but she was stubborn. And tough. And closed in. Closed off. Except when
she was holding Angel, or ruffling the Gasman’s hair, or pushing something
closer to Iggy’s hand so he could find it easily without knowing anyone had
helped him. Or when she was trying to untangle Nudge’s mane of hair.
Or-sometimes-when she was looking at Fang.
He shifted on the hard ground, a half-dozen flashes of memory cycling
through his brain. Max looking at him and laughing. Max leaping off a cliff,
snapping out her wings, flying off, so incredibly powerful and graceful that
it took his breath away.
Max punching someone’s lights out, her face like stone.
Max kissing that weiner Sam on Anne’s front porch.
Gritting his teeth, Fang rolled onto his side.
Max kissing him on the beach, after Ari had kicked Fang’s butt.
Just now, her mouth soft under his.
He wished she were here, if not next to him, then somewhere in the cave, so
he could hear her breathing.
It was going to be hard to sleep without that tonight.”

“He rolled his eyes and took my hand. His hand was hard and calloused, tough with muscle and old scars.
The night settled around us like a blanket. I could hear the water lapping against the dock. We were totally alone.
“You’re . . . ,�� he began, and I waited, heart throbbing in my throat. “Such a pain,�� he concluded.
“What?�� I asked, just as his head swooped in and his mouth touched mine. I tried to speak, but one of
Fang’s hands held the back of my head, and he kept his lips pressed against me, kissing me softly but with a Fanglike determination.
Oh, jeez, I thought distractedly. Jeez, this is Fang, and me, and . . . Fang tilted his head to kiss me more deeply, and I felt totally lightheaded. Then I remembered to breathe through my nose, and the fog cleared a tiny bit. Somehow we were pressed together, Fang’s arms around me now, sliding under my
wings, his hands flat against my back.
It was incredible. I loved it. I loved him.
It was a total disaster.
Gasping, I pulled back. “I, uh��,�� I began oh so coherently, and then I jumped up, almost knocking him
over, and raced down the dock. I took off, flying fast, like a rocket.”

“Max, you can change your mind.�� His voice was like autumn leaves dropping
lightly onto the ground.
“I don’t know how.��
Then my throat felt tight, and I rubbed my fists against my eyes. I dropped
my face onto my arms, crossed over my knees. This sucked! I wanted to be back
with the oth-
Fang’s hand gently smoothed my hair off my neck. My breath froze in my
chest, and every sense seemed hyperalert. His hand stroked my hair again, so
softly, and then trailed across my neck and shoulder and down my back, making
me shiver.
I looked up. “What the heck are you doing?��
“Helping you change your mind,�� he whispered, and then he leaned over,
tilted my chin up, and kissed me.”

“Alex:
OK, that sounds like a challenge! Well firstly, I would have brought you to a hotel along the coast so that your suite would have the best sea view in the hotel. You could fall asleep listening to the waves crashing against the rocks, I would sprinkle the bed with red rose petals and have candles lit all around the room, I would have your favorite CD playing quietly in the background.
But I wouldn’t propose to you there. I would bring you to where there was a huge crowd of people so they could all gasp when I got down on one knee and proposed. Or something like that. Note I have italicized all important buzz words.
Rosie:
Oh.
Alex:
Oh? That’s all you can say? One word for the most important night of our lives?”

“That dress you're wearing..." Kraven says to Annabelle. Her eyes rise, meeting his stare. "It's quite expensive."

Annabelle makes a face. "Don't worry, I'll give it back. You're the one who wanted to have this ridiculous dinner.”
