Father

  "So, AJ, what's your plans for the dance this Friday?" Lucas questioned the shorter boy as they walked towards their class.

"I doubt I'm gonna go." AJ answered honestly, "I have Friday off but I'll probably either switch with someone or I'll just hang out with my siblings."

"Oh... ok."

The rest of the walk was silent, a comfortable silence but still, it made him a little nervous. Did he say something wrong?

"Hey guys." He heard Lucas greet someone. Looking up, he realized they had stopped right in front of the two weird shiksas.

"Lucas!" Riley beamed, raising her hand for some reason.

"Hand." Maya corrected.

"Lucas!" the brunette repeated, keeping her hand at her side this time.

"Grown-up voice."

"Lucas, hello."

"Hey" the southern boy smiled amusedly.

"Hey hee haw, you going to tick-tock shake your body time? 'Cause you know, it's not a square dance, so not gonna be a whole lotta do-si-doin'." Maya teased, trying to get a rise out of the Texan. It didn't.

Lucas calmly smiled, "Well, then I'm sure I'll have no idea what to do and you can make fun of me."

"You're not playing this right!" Maya scowled, pointed at him.

Lucas smirked, pushing her finger away, "Well, that's certainly not my intention. I'll try harder next time."

"I will break you."

"Well, if that's what makes you happy then I certainly can't wait for it." The southerner tipped his imaginary cowboy hat and sneakily winked at AJ, "Ma'am."

The blonde made an indescribable sound of disgust, taking a couple steps back.

AJ chuckled, watching the interaction between the two. Oddly enough, it kind of reminded him of him and his ex-best friend, Linc, and he shuddered at the thought.

"You going to the school dance, Lucas?" Riley finally spoke up, a hopeful look on her face.

"Thought I would. You?"

Maya pretended to gag at his response, "You hear me?"

She gagged again, "You'll both be there. He'll be the one in the cowboy hat going like this." Maya started doing a little square dance, causing AJ to laugh.

The bell rang so Lucas turned to look at AJ, "So you going to class?"

"Thought I would. You?" AJ mocked the Texan's words.
