Pretend- A Peybrina fanfic

Chapter 5

Sabrina's POV

Peyton and Michael walk over and sit down. Michael passes out the scripts to everyone. The title reads "Girl Meets Mistletoe". Our holiday episode this year.

"Okay, everyone ready?" Michael asks. We all nod.

Ben starts us off. "How great is this? I mean, we thought last year was special. But Morgan and Eric will be here too today!"

We turn around to see the door open, revealing Will Friedle and Lindsay Ridgeway. We all cheer. Ben and Danielle run over to greet them. There's lots of hugging and chatter, but eventually we settle down and get back to the script.

"Merry Christmas, niche," Will says.

"Uncle Eric!" Rowan and Auggie exclaim together.

We read a while longer. Mostly reunion stuff, for the Boy Meets World fans. Then we come to the point of the episode where there's a Matthews Family talent show. Rider gets to sing with Cheryl, who plays my mom. Rowan gets to dance with Auggie. Then it's my turn to perform.

"All I want for Christmas, is you," I sing. Boy, is it weird to be singing christmas songs in July. I look around the table and catch Peyton staring at me.

"Maya, can I talk to you?" Peyton asks.

"What do you want, Bucky McBoingBoing?" I reply.

"I was just wondering," he begins. The stage directions read to walk towards the fireplace, where mistletoe is hanging. We don't do that, since we're just reading, but I can imagine what it'll look like when we actually shoot that scene.

"Wondering what?" I ask.

"If you'd mind if I did this."

Lucas leans in for a kiss. The stage directions read. Maya does too.

"Wait, what?" Corey asks. The adults all laugh.

"Don't worry Cor, your kiss with Rowan is in the next episode," Michael jokes. Row turns bright red. We're all laughing now. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Peyton keep glancing over at me. I can't help but blush a little. Well, this could be an awkward.

And it's in front of Bradley! Shoot, I forgot he was coming Thursday. Maybe he won't now that we're broken up. But knowing him, he'll probably come anyways just so the girls in the audience will fangirl over him. And he'll find some way to embarrass me while he's at it. 

My life just got a lot more complicated.
