Hi There! So this popped into my head yesterday and, due to my sister's prodding, here it is!

Everything You Want

Fang stared blankly at his laptop. He had absolutely no idea what to write. Of course, his blog was entirely about his life, but he wasn't going to map out absolutely everything. That would be suicide. He'd already updated the basics, but there was one thing, or rather person, he couldn't get off his mind. Max. How many times had he been rejected? Twice. How many times had Sam been rejected? That's right, zero, zip, nada.

When she had gotten home that night from her date, all she'd gone on about was how perfect it was. He'd heard her talking to Nudge, who had wanted to know everything. "He says everything right at the right time! It's amazing!" she had said. "When I was unsure, he knew what to say, what to do. I wish I were more like him..."

"Why?!" Nudge had said. "You're great Max!"

"But there are just some things Nudge... Like I wish I could be as reserved, as still and quiet. I admired that about him. He wasn't in a rush. He just went with the flow. Well, time for you to go to bed. Off with you!" Max smiled.

As Nudge was leaving the room, she had quietly said, too quietly for Max to hear, "You know another person like that Max. And he's everything you need." But Fang had heard from where he was standing outside the door.

And now he was in his room, pondering the meaning of what Nudge had said, while he was supposed to be writing a riviting blog. Typical. Max distracted him at every turn. 'So I'll just write about her.' he thought. The idea had just come to him. 'It's not like she reads my blog anyway. Whenever she takes my laptop she's researching.' And with that, he began to type.

After a long period, it was done. And with that, Fang fell sound asleep.

The next morning, Max was up before everyone else. She'd had another nightmare, and couldn't get back to sleep. So here she was. She meandered out to the hall and checked everyone's rooms; they were all sound asleep. Lastly, she cam to Fang's room. When she opened the door, she found him slumped on his bed, his laptop in his lap. His email for his blog was up and there were hundreds of messages, and more coming in by the second. Max walked into the room and picked up the laptop. She clicked on a message. It read:

Fang,

OMG, is that for Max?! Shed luv it! I kno I do! U should tell her how u feel! Maybe she just doesnt know and thats y she doesnt notice u.

Max was confused. What's for her? She clicked another message.

Fang,

Dude, you gotta tell your lady. Max, I'm guessing? You write killer songs man. I wish ya luck.

Max sat down at the end of the bed and checked to make sure Fang was sound asleep. He was. She opened his blog up, and read through it. It read,

Hey, Fang here. So I have no idea what to write, go figure huh? Some of you keep asking if I have a girlfriend or if I like someone, etc., etc. Well, no, I don't have a girlfriend, but I do like someone. The trouble is, she just doesn't like me back. But since she doesn't read this blog, I figured I'd write a song about her and see what you guys think. Here goes nothing.

Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return

[Chorus]
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

[Chorus]

But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return

[Chorus]

I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know

So you guys can comment or whatever... See ya later.

-Fang

Max just stared at the screen for a minute, absolutely speechless. Inside her head of course. Yeah, like she was gunna wake up Fang right the second. Suddenly, she got the feeling that someone was watching her. 'Oh great.' she though, and turned her head slightly. Fang was right there, reading over her shoulder.

"I'm a very light sleeper you know." He swiftly picked the laptop out of her hands and closed it. He got up and set it on his desk. "What were you looking for in here?"

Max struggled to speak for a minute. "Well, um, I was uh, up early and was just checking on everyone. And you're, uhm, laptop was on..." Her voice faded. She tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear.

"So you choose now to read my blog?" Max stood up defensively.

"I was just curious." Her look softened. She was slowly realizing that Fang really did love her. She was scared of what would happen of their relationship was more than just platonic. Fang came towards her.

"What all did you read?" Max looked at the ground.

"Your song. Was it really about me?" She looked up at him through her lashes. They distantly heard the doorbell ring. Fang walked over to his window and peered out.

"It's your boyfriend. Go see him." Fang walked in front of her again, pausing on his way to the door. "It's always been about you Max, and in my world, it always will be." And with that, he left to go get the door.

Well, that's it. Let me know what you think.

XO,
