Our little secret

Chapter 1

"No, I love you more,"

"No, I love you most,"

"Okay we get it. Y'all love each other and I'm gonna stay single forever; stop rubbing it into my face, please," I scrunch my nose.

"Oh Maya..you will find the one soon. Just wait until your prince comes along while you kiss in the rain having the most perfect moment," Riley cheers as Lucas turns his head away momentarily.

He's been like that ever since that day, but in all honestly.. I wouldn't blame him.

~flashback~

"Maya and Lucas, stay here until I come back. I left my sweater in the apartment; I'll be right back" Riley informs before rushing back into her apartment.

BOOM!

Thunder comes upon us and being the person I am -- I didn't bring a hoodie or an umbrella along. Who even carries that around?

"Here," Lucas offers his jacket with a sympathetic smile which I gladly accept.

It smells like his cologne scent and I love very minute of it.

Most people could say I have a little minor crush on him, but I can't ever reveal it because Riley and Lucas are what is definitely fate.

"Thanks," I mutter under my breath and give a small smile.

I look up and my eyes meet his gaze. His brown eyes are plain but they sparkle as if the stars couldn't compare.

Where the hell is Riley?

My mind is paralyzed at the sight of his plain chocolate brown eyes seem to pour into mine, only igniting my body and i feel the intensity as we both meet our desire.

"No... I-I can't do this..," I pull away quickly and turn away, stepping out of the jacket. I regret what just happened and I need to escape this now.

I, also, regret leaving that jacket covering because it is raining like the end of the earth is here.

"Hey I'm back. Let's go quick. Oh and here Maya, I grabbed a hoodie that you left over once. I see you do need it more than I thought," Riley raises an eyebrow at me, handing me my purple slipon.

"Thanks Riles," I say pulling it over my head and pulling the hood over. I back away from Lucas and turn away as they walk ahead of me.

My mind is instantly full of regret and i cant help but feel utterly guilty. This can never be mentioned to anyone.

I glance over to Lucas and to my surprise, he was already staring at me.

"No one can know about this," I mouth to him; hoping I will understand," this is our little secret,"

He nods in agreement, eyeing me once last time and turning back.

Our dirty, little secret.

~end of flashback~

I shutter from the moment back to reality. My.. our moment was all Riley has ever wanted with someone like Lucas and what I've done is something that cant be forgivable.

"Maya.." I feel a soft shake, tearing me from my hideaway thoughts.

If anyone knew what I was thinking -- i wouldn't be alive.

"Third wheel, huh?" a voice who is already recognizable faintly projects to my brain as I follow the open doors to the next hallway up to my last class.

"What can you say. They're in deep love. No changing the way they are," I back up against the lockers and rest my head.

It's true if you think about it. Riley and Lucas are some people who are all about the love sick type. It's like they're meant to be together; and the universe wants them together -- everyone does.

"Love is not written. It isn't planned out and no matter what, at the end, it will work out for whoever it was needed to be," he glances over to Lucas and looks back at me.

"Since when did you become so inspirational?" my eyes dart to the wall at a poster for cheerleading.

Why would i want to be some pesky girl wearing, a god knows how short, outfit, with a ponytail who practically screams "spirit" every five seconds?

"I don't know. It happens when I look at you," he smiles and admires me.

Here's the thing: Farkle likes me. He has always liked Riley and I since the 1st grade. I guess some things never change.

"Cool," is all I manage to say before looking over to the new Romeo and Juliet -- minus the dying part.

"Are you okay?" he asks worryingly, attempting to make eye contact with me, but I turn my head as if looking for someone.

No.

No, I am not.

"I'm fine," I calmly assure him, before sucking in a sharp breath and

"Okay," he sighs, giving me a small smile in which I return so he can, hopefully, leave me alone.

Just to my luck the bell rings and everyone scurries to their usual classroom.

"There goes the bell," I mutter to myself as I dreadfully walk, dragging my head on the lockers while heading to class.

"Okay, class. This Friday is our annual homecoming dance and it's boys ask girls out again," Mr. Matthews narrows his eyes at the couples who have seem to take over every class.

"Oh great, a dance full of lovey dovey people who dance amongst themselves and do the kissing scene every five minutes," I roll my eyes, banging my head on the desk before laying it down subtly.

"Yes Maya. That's exactly what it is. Except for the kissing part," his eyes wander to Lucas as a warning which Lucas understands immediately

The rest of the class was basically learning and whatever as for I never pay attention.

Finally, the bell rings, and I survived another day. I was ready to leave the hellhole when I overheard something.

"I heard Lucas and Maya kissed and didn't even tell Riley."

"Oh my gosh, I heard someone saying that Lucas is cheating on Riley and you'd never guess with who -- Maya," whispers going around the hall, and i furrow my eyebrows.

I was never known great for my anger management so of course something was going to happen.

"Who told you that?" my eyes are already burning with a fire lit inside My cheeks are flushed and heated as i wait for answers.

"Oh, poor Maya. Did ya' miss me?" comes the voice I never wanted to hear in my lifetime again.

Turning around, his face becomes familiar and the dreadful memories jolt back to me.
