A Former Y/N Story

Chapter 9

"It's been a long time, Y/N"

I stood there shocked. It's been so long since someone called me by that name. And him, I mean he's just shown up out of nowhere.

Be strong, Jessica. You're not the same girl you were when you dated him.

"Why are you here?" I looked him with scorn "I thought I made it pretty clear when we broke up, that I don't want anything to do with you."

"Oh, but bluebird. You should know you can't keep me away that easily." Lyon edged in closer "Perhaps I should shove you against a wall, for old time sake."

Lyon whispered into my ear "I know how much you like when I do that."

That's a lie.

I pushed him back "Why don't you go fuck yourself?"

"My...someone's being a naughty girl. Did you forget that I own you?"

I laughed so hard in his face "Own me? Since when did you get that idea? You don't own me, you never did. Even if at some point that was true, it's certainly not now. I. BROKE. UP. WITH. YOU."

His stupid cheeky grin then changed into an evil looking glare "Well I tried doing this the easy way, but there's this guy waiting with my payment. Therefor..."

Lyon then grabbed my wrist "you're coming with me, whether you like it or not."

I tried pulling away but remembered just how strong this guy's grip is.

Just when all hope seemed lost, someone taps Lyon on the shoulder "Hey! I believe she told you to leave her alone."

It was Maya, and beside her was Lukas and Jason. They all looked at Lyon with quite the disapproving glare.

"This is none of your concern" Lyon tried to push Maya aside but she wouldn't budge.

"Considering she's my friend, I think it is. Oh, and I would think what you're going to do next, my buddy is recording this entire conversation"

I looked over and saw Jason had his phone out and he indeed was filming.

Maya kept going at Lyon "I'm sure the FBI would be very interested in this footage of a toxic male kidnapping his ex-girlfriend for, payment was it? So that's kidnapping and human trafficking. When I do the math, you'd be spending a lot of time in prison. Is that what you want?"

Lyon was practically sweating in fear before he released my hand and left.

"Thank you" I said to Maya.

"Hey it's what we do for each other" Maya said as I saw that warm smile she gave the day we first met.

"Jason" I turned to the guys "what are you going to with that video."

"I'm keeping it. Just it case."

We all laughed. Then maya turned to me, blushing a bit.

"There was actually something I wanted to ask before Pad Boy McJerks interrupted."

"Go on."

"May I have this dance?"

Another slow song was playing as Lukas and Jason were returning to the dance floor.

My heart was practically beating out of my chest "Yes, I'd love to dance."

I took Maya's hand, as we danced the rest of the night away.

At that moment, it was like my encounter with Lyon faded away. All there was, was Me and Maya.

If I could freeze time to just this moment, I would.

It's confirmed. I definitely have feelings for Maya.

When Maya dropped me off at my apartment, there was a moment where we both stared at each other uncertain until...I don't know what came over me but

...I kissed Maya.

She looked at me, shocked "Jessica, did you just..."

Oh no, she doesn't like me back. Abort abort.

"I'm sorry, that was uncalled for!" I blurted out as I slammed the door behind me.

Maya's POV

Jessica and I stared at each other uncertain, until she quickly leaned in and kissed me.

I stood shocked. She really does return my feelings, wow.

I began to ask if she meant to kiss me but she then blurted out "I'm sorry that was uncalled for" before slamming the door behind her.

She didn't even let me kiss her back.
