THIRD PERSON:
"Maya! You're getting water all through the house!" Katherine shouts when Maya gets back that night
"What did you do? Go swimming?" she asks, Maya walking into the kitchen, dripping everywhere
"No, we were messing about in the rain" Maya chuckles
"And..." she urges, knowing that wasn't the full story
"Hm?" Maya mumbles, turning to get a bottle of water out of the fridge
Her mom was currently following behind her with a roll of tissue, wiping everything she touched, she's always hated things being messy
"You're way too smiley for just messing about in the rain" her mom acknowledges, leaning against the countertop, accepting the fact that the kitchen would need cleaning entirely
"What? It was fun" Maya lies
"Maya I'm your mother, I can tell when you're lying, come on" she smiles, M'[]aya just looking at her, "Well, I know it's to do with Carina so what is it?" she asks,
Maya, shaking her head at her, walks right to the bottom of the stairs before turning back for a second, "We might have kissed" she smiles before bolting right up the stairs, ignoring how her hair was flinging drops of water everywhere
"You did what?!" her mom calls after her, following her up into her bedroom, "You kissed?" she smiles, having trapped Maya in her room so there was nowhere to run
"I'm not saying anything else," Maya says, pretending to zip her mouth up, throwing away the key
"You don't need to; your face says it all. You're all smiley, oh I love it"
"Mom!" Maya groans
"What?! I'm allowed to be excited"
"I know but it's embarrassing and I can't even hide in bed because my clothes are soaking wet"
"Fine, I'll let you smile away in peace" her mom teases, leaving the room
When she was with Carina the rain didn't bother her, the fact that she was freezing cold didn't affect her, the kiss brought more warmth and shelter than jackets and umbrellas ever could but now it was horrible, she was sticky and cold and just felt outright disgusting.
After a while of pouting, she finally started the process of getting changed, trying to dry her hair a bit before getting into bed, her head only just touching the pillow before her phone rang from the other side of the room.
"Oh my god," she groans, pulling herself up to go and get it, sluggishly dragging her feet across the room as if a sign of protest.
Carina, her phone read, a facetime coming through which she was quick to answer.
"Hi" Maya smiles, turning the main light on, leaving the room lit by just a lamp, this time walking rather happily back to her bed, laying down
"Hey" Carina smiles back, also lying-in bed except she was lying on her stomach, her arms outstretched in front of her to hold her phone.
"Everything ok?" Maya asks
"Yeah, I just wanted to see you"
"You saw me like an hour ago" Maya chuckles
"And yet it wasn't enough"
"Smooth" Maya laughs, "How did it go with your mom?"
"Not too bad, I just lied my ass off and promised her that I was careful around your parents" she sighs, just watching Maya through the screen
