Maia pov
I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and the smell of freshly cut grass. Once I opened my eyes it took me a second to remember where I was. Once I did I decided to get up and take a shower. It was now only 8:30 am I knew Wheezie wouldn't be up she always sleeps in. I got dressed into pink cotton shorts and a white crop top and started blow drying my hair. After I was done with that I decided I would make Wheeze and me breakfast. I grabbed my phone and headed downstairs. I had about 100 text from John B, Kei, Sarah, and Jj begging me to respond. I decided to ignore them and wait until after I had a coffee or two in me. I set my playlist up to the alexa in the kitchen and got to work. Wheezie loved french toast and sausage so that what I decided to make.
Rafe pov
It was now the morning after the fight I had with the pogues. I still haven't reached out to Maia because Topper said that would be best. Now I realized he just wanted to go knocking on her door first to apologize. It took everything in me not to pull into that assholes driveway yesterday when I saw him all over Maia. No wonder he told me to stay away from her he wants me to look like the dick. Well today i'm going to find Maia and make things right. After my morning shower I decided to head downstairs and make a protein shake quick before the gym. I've been trying to get back into a routine to keep my mind of things. As I made my way downstairs I heard Justin Bieber blaring. Fucking Wheezie or Sarah must been down there making one of their stupid smoothies. I made my way to the kitchen shocked to see Maia dancing around cooking breakfast.
"Maia" I said. She turned around and gasped I wasn't sure if it was because she was shocked to see me in my own house or because I scared her. She grabbed her phone trying to pause the music.
"Rafe what are you doing here?" She asked. I could tell she felt stupid right after the words fell from her mouth.
"This is my house." I said smiling at her stupid question.
"Right" she said turning around to flip her french toast.
"What are you doing in my kitchen at 9:30 in the morning?" I asked taking a step closer to her.
"Rose said I could stay here while my parents are gone. I'm making Wheezie and I breakfast before the beach." She said still keeping her back to me.
"Nothing for me?" I asked I was now standing about 10 inches away from her. I got closer and closer until there was practically no space between us. I moved my hands to her waist I could feel her body tense.
"Rafe" she said turning her head slightly to look at me.
"You don't have to say anything I know I fucked up bad." I said using my hands to turn her body so she was facing me.
"Yeah you did and its not just that I just don't understand what we're doing. You say your not good enough and we can't be together and then your trying to make things right I just don't understand." She said her eyes darted from my face down to the floor.
"I know and I want to prove to you that I can be better for you." I said tilting her head up so she was looking at me. "How can I do that you tell me and i'll do it."
"First no more of this pogue vs kook bullshit. We are no better than then we're all human. I'm tired off feeling like I have to choose between you guys. I already talked to Topper about it too and he told me he would try and work something out with them." She said. She had a sad look on her face her lips almost formed into a frown.
"Ok Ok I can do that." I said shaking my head in agreement.
"I'm not saying you have to hang around them all the time. But if you ever around them be nice or i'm done." She said wrapping her arms around my neck.
