Maya's POV

The councilling session lasted 2 hours, before she finally gave up and let me leave, seeing as she didn't want to miss her lunch.

I left the room and found myself walking over to the table where Xander and his friends sit. I sat down on the bench, pulling out my sketchbook and flicking through the pages.

"Hi, Maya. I haven't seen you in a few days. How are you?"

My head shot up as I looked to the girl that spoke, her hair was pitch black, pulled into a tight ponytail and she was wearing a floral dress, similar to ones that Mara always seems to be wearing.

"I'm fine thanks, you?" I replied, looking back down at my sketchbook.

"I'm great thanks," she trailed off as I heard footsteps coming up to me. Sniffing the air slightly, I realized it was Xander and Brody that had come over.

"What's up guys?"

"The sky, what else Brody?" I smirked looking up at him.

"Ha ha." He mocked, while Xander placed himself next to me.

I looked up to him, watching as he smiled sweetly at me. I glared at him, smacking him upside the head again.

"Oohhhh. Someone's in trouble." Brody taunted, causing me to shift my glare onto him for a moment.

"What was that for?" Xander pouted, holding the back of his head.

"Oh,'What was that for?' That." I mocked, "was for ratting me out to that Councilor woman thing." I ranted.

"Thing?"

"She's a thing now." I snapped.

"Okay..." He hushed, "I'm just gonna sit and be quiet."

"Good Idea." I huffed. My face suddenly lit up, as I realized that it was my lunch break.

"It's lunch. Why am I sitting here next to this traitor?" I muttered to myself, as I got up, walking in the direction of the gates.

"Maya, please. I'll do anything, I'm sorry." Xander begged causing me to stop in my tracks.

"Anything, you say?" A smirk tugged at my lips.

"Anything."

"Righty ho then. I'm on my way to the diner to get some lunch. Now, you, are coming too. Alpha Boy, you're going to pay for all of my food." I explained as I continued walking, Xander now trailing behind me.

~~~☯~~~

As we left Jess', I was in a fit of laughter, while Xander just stood, mouth wide open.

"I... How- I can't even." He stammered, only fuelling my laughter.

"Shut your mouth hon' you'll get flies." I patted his cheek, before continuing on in the direction of the forest.

"You bought 4 steaks."

"Yup" I nodded,

"You bought 4 large Steaks." He emphasized,

"Yeah."

"With chips."

"Well duh."

"And you got 2 desserts."

"You goin' somewhere with this?" Xander shushed me, nodding before he continued.

"And you ate all of it. Every last bite...... And I payed for it."
