Maya & Josh (girl meets world)

Chapter 5

~Josh's POV~
I have to go find Maya. I have to find Maya and tell her I'm sorry she had to see any of this. We aren't dating, but it still hurts. It hurts really bad to see someone you like with someone else. It really does.

~Maya's POV~
I came rushing over there, and I walked right into the mall and to the water fountain. There I saw Josh with his hands over his head. All alone, no girl to be seen. What happened as soon as I left? Should I even go up to him? Poor guy, I mean, I have no idea what happened with him and Rachel besides the fact that they kissed, but he seems really upset. Maybe because I saw.

"Heyy, Josh, uh, you seem upset," I said as I walked over there.

He looked up at me with very sad eyes, it seems like he may cry.
"Maya, I'm so sorry you had to witness that, I-"

"Josh that girl texted me and invited me here. I thought it was Riley or something, I'm dumb for thinking that. I feel bad that I made you upset because I saw, I'm leaving now," I tried to walk away but Josh grabbed my arm.

"Her name is Rachel, and she told me you like me. Well she didn't say the actual words but it kind of made it clear when she told me you can't get over me," Josh said to me as I gave him a confused look. First of all, I have no idea who the heck this Rachel girl even is, and second, she knows I like Josh? She said it in a rude way too. 'Can't get over him'.

"Also, I have to say I'm sorry. I know you like me, I mean maybe she was lying about it. Still, I'm sorry you had to see any of that. It hurts me that it hurts you, I didn't like it at all. I didn't even want to kiss her to begin with, and I don't wanna hurt you. I hate Rachel, she's really mean," Josh said.

"Josh, it's nice to hear that. Yes, I do like you actually. So Rachel was right. I told myself I didn't many times but now that I say this out loud, I know I do. I don't know how she knows about me though, that's so weird," I can't believe I just admitted to liking him.

"I knew it. And I yelled at Rachel and I told her I have a crush on you. She called me disgusting after that, but it's just a little crush. You're really pretty," Josh said, not very confident.

Is this..okay? Am I allowed to like him and is he allowed to like me? Butterflies are flying in my stomach because of what he said. It makes me like him even more, ugh screw age.

"So we both like eachother," I said.

"You're 2 years younger than me, and Riley doesn't want this. Can't we just like eachother, and not date?" Josh seems upset he has to say this.

~JOSHS POV~
"Let's just be friends, and maybe we will move on from eachother and be totally fine with it," Maya said while looking at the floor, in a quiet and sad voice.

I don't want anyone else though.

"Sure, yeah, um lets do that,"

I gave her my phone number so we could text, then we both left. Interesting day, I get kissed by a girl I hate, then I yell at her, and then I almost date Maya. Well, maybe not almost date her but we both admitted to liking each other. I didn't ask her out or anything, I won't, and I can't. I am sad I have to let her go, I guess I'm doing this for my own good.

I hope Maya is alright, she seemed sad. I want her to text me so we can talk, or maybe she will even call me. I also really hope she doesn't tell Riley because I know Riley doesn't like this.

I looked down at my phone and smiled because my phone lit up and I'm sure I got a text from Maya.

It was a text from Riley.

"You LIKE MAYA??!!"

I sighed at the text, I don't know why it's such a big deal for her. We aren't dating. I wish we were though.

It took me forever to reply.
"yeah, I do. she likes me too tho" What if Maya didn't want her to know?! Dang it.

"Maya doesn't like you, she told me she doesn't. Sorry, and you can't date her anyways."
I read that text and immediately felt sad. Don't feel sad about Maya, Josh. It's just a stupid girl. After all, she's just a stupid, little girl. Don't let a little girl cause you any sadness.

"oh well I don't even like her I lied to her. she's just a stupid little girl you know I don't wanna date that anyways gross haha" Was I mean? I hope I don't hurt Maya. Well yes I'm going to hurt Maya, if she sees it. Why would I hurt her though? She doesn't like me, I don't like her, she should be happy. Who am I kidding, I like her! I need to quit lying to myself.

~MAYAS POV~
I hate him so much. I'm just a little girl to him? Okay. If he thinks I'm a little girl, then I'll be one to him. He thinks I'm gross? I'll act gross around him.

I am really hurt, I don't ever want to see his face again. It may not be a big deal, but he just really hurt me by the fact he could just say that like it meant nothing to him. I'm done with him, next time I see him I'm just a little girl. A stupid, gross little girl.
