Lucas's POV:

I arrived at Cali a few days ago. I rented a hotel, and I had a bike, to.

I had a job at this fast food place, and was getting around pretty good. Its amazing here. I go to the beach every day.

This would be perfect.. But one thing is missing. Maya.

Maya's POV:

We wake up early, and take the subway to the airport.

I used to be scared of flying, but not really anymore.

After about what seemed like a whole day, we arrived at California.

Its so cool here. Way better than New York.

"Okay, so we need a hotel." Mr. Matthews says.

"Why not rent a cheap beach house?" Topanga asks.

"Oohh, that would be awesome!" Riley exclaims.

"Yeah! Pleaasse Mr. Matthews?" I beg.

"We're not in school Maya, you can call me Corey."

"Dont change the subject, Corey." I point at him.

We all laugh.

"Okay, fine. Beach house it is."

We find a really cheap- but pretty beach house to rent. It has two big bedrooms. One with one bed, another with two. It has an amazing kitchen and living room. Theres hardwood floor everywhere, and it just feels like im in a tropical paradise.

Me and Riley call beds, and dressers to use.

"Hey, you wanna go out to eat? I'm starving." I ask.

"Yeah, sure. Let me tell my dad."

Riley walks out, then comes back.

"He said we can go I just have to take my phone so I can call him and whatever."

"Okey dokey, lets go." I say, and we leave to go eat.
