♡♡♡♡♡Maya's POV♡♡♡♡♡

TODAY IS THE DAY THAT I HAVE MY FIRST DATE!

Pfff, not that I'm overly excited or anything.

I mean, if I was I'd be jumping up and down on my bed.

"Maya, quit jumping on the bed in there, the neighbors called to complain!"

Oops?

I hop off my bed and run to my drawers. My closet isn't where I keep my clothes, it's where I keep my art supplies.

I pull out a Zoo trip ready outfit (Picture on top! Instead of sandals, she wore converse) and leave my hair down. No make up was applied other than lovely chapstick and ya know, and I grab my phone, doing one little adjustment that will make Lucas happy.

Instead of "My Temporary Texas Ranger ♥"

He is now "♥ Mine ♥ "

I grin at my phone before stuffing it into my pocket and heading to the living room. As I enter the Livining room, my mom sits there laying back watching ridiculousness.

"Uh, hey mom. Watcha doin?" I ask her skeptically before rounding the couch and sitting next to her.

She had a bag of potatoe chips in her lap and when she pulled one out she pushed it in her mouth then turned to me. "Oh, hey honey bunches. What's cookin'?"

"Um, nothing...? Uh, mom, why aren't you at work?" I ask her pulling a chip out of the bag myself.

"Oh. About that, I kinda took the day off. I wanted to spend it with you, but you have a date." She says with a wink at the end.

"Aw, you're so beautiful, sugar." She tells me with a small smile, running her free Non-Greasy-Potato chip-hands through my blonde hair.

No, im not.

I laugh a small laugh and grin. "Thanks mom" I reply," But uh, you really didn't have to take the day off ya know?"

She frowns. "Are you sayin' you wouldn't wanna spend time with me?" She asks.

Where did she get that?!

"What?!" I scream," No mom! Thats not it. I just---if you you wanted to hang out all you had to do was say so and we could could of scheduled ahead of time."

She grins sofly. "Oh." She chuckles softly," Sorry hun. I just don't wanna end up the kind of mothet that has a daughter that dumps her for men. My momma did that to her momma....my mom commited suicide just becuase of that..." She explains as her voice cracks.

Oh gosh....this cant be good.

"No mom I would never do that to you okay? I love you so much. You're the only parent that stayed...." I tell her in a whisper as i hug her.

"I love you too babe" She whsipers kissing the tip of my head," I will be right here. Always."

Before I could respond a knock at the door woke me up.

"Bye mom!" I beam with a smile before hopping up and going to the door and opening it.

The door unveiled a masterwork of art....

Lucas.

"Hey..." I whisper as I look into his eyes and smile.

"Hi..." He smiles back.

I smile a little wider before nodding. "We should go." I say stepping out of the house.

"I agree. Oh and by the way" He begins before leaning in," You look gorgeous as always."
