Maximum Ride! What do you think you're doing?!

Kissing Fang.

Don't you know that you could hurt yourselves by doing this?!

Yeah…

Don't you realize that this could potentially split up the Flock?!

No duh.

So then why aren't you running away?

Because I'm up a creek without a paddle.

And that means…?

I'm utterly and most dangerously in love.

Fang's going to get back together with Lissa, you know.

Yeah, because I'll actually let him within ten miles of DC.

What about Sam? Don't you still have feelings for him?

Sam will be Sam. Fang will be hotter than Sam. Case closed.

And Iggy?

Iggy's got the hots for Nudge. I ain't interfering with that affair.

The Gasman?

Okay, now you're just coming up with excuses.

What if Fang suddenly dies? What would happen to the Flock?

If Fang spontaneously combusts, I'll let you know.

Wouldn't this make everything awkward between you two and make leading the Flock harder?

According to the rest of the Flock, we've been together for a long time.

What if the School does an experiment with Fang and he comes back brain dead?

Fang's a guy—he's already brain dead.

What if you catch Fang cheating on you?

Fang values his life more.

Wouldn't you die from embarrassment when Iggy teases you about this?

Nah—Iggy'll be the one on the ground in pain.

What if this leads into a one night stand?

NO FREAKIN COMMENT.

What if Fang writes about this on his blog?

Then he better mention how hot I am.

Starting a family?

I don't think the world is ready to be destroyed just yet…

And what about saving the world? Are you giving up on that?

Right now Fang's my world and he's perfectly safe.

Are you annoyed yet?

What, don't you want to hear more of my snappy come-backs?

Do you care about him?

Is Iggy one of the weirdest people I know?

I mean it—do you really care about Fang with everything?

Have you read the fifth book yet?

I'll take that as a yes.

Thank you, Mr. Obvious.

…

So. When's the wedding?
