A/N: Well look at what we have here. Another chapter you say?! Goodness me. I am on a roll! Kidding. But here is chapter 21 and I hope you like it!!!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

During class, Christine and Marcus had kept looking my way, pointing at me and whispering. Whatever they were talking about, I didn't really care. Although he was now my ex-best friend, I still had this big crush on him.

Life was complicated.

Maya suddenly starts laughing during the lesson. I look at her curious to why she was laughing at the wrong moment.

"Maya, what the fuck are you laughing at?" I whisper, people around the room were starting to look at us.

"I just remembered Christine's little speech back there. She thought we were going to be insulted by calling us punk rock and Avril Lavigne? Nope." She says, starting to laugh again.

Once the teacher scolded for her, she immediately stopped.

"I actually like Avril so, I don't get why she even said that." I retort, causing Maya to quietly snicker. Or at least she tried to stay quiet.

Her trying to breathe, and laugh made this wheezy noise come out of her mouth, which of course caused me to burst out into laughter.

"Maya and Riley, do you both have something to tell us?" The teacher says, scolding us at our behavior.

"No Miss." I say.

"You're such a goody-two shoes." Maya says, "I wanted to call Christine out."

She folds her arms and huffs.

"You're acting like a child. Maya, I don't want you to get detention or expelled because of me." I snap playfully at her.

"Ugh, fine. Lukeyy! Come herrreee." She whines, whispering from the middle of the room.

He rolls his eyes playfully at her childness, and asks the guy next her to move. Politely of course.

"I'm friends with good people. And I'm here. Being the rebel." She says, sticking her tongue out, wrapping her arms around Luke.

I snicker, causing Maya to give me a glare.

"You look like a koala, clinging onto it's bamboo or something." I laugh quietly.

"Whatever." She snorts, clinging onto Luke tighter.

My head traveled to the thought of how I wished that was still Marcus and I but, now all that I see is Marcus doing that with Christine.

After class was over, we headed towards the cafeteria. Luckily, we arrived as soon as it opened. There were less kids, and the tables weren't that crowded.

"You know, the juniors and the seniors get to go out for lunch?! I mean, how lucky is that?!" Maya screams, jumping up and down.

"Babe, we're only freshmen. We have at least 2-3 years to wait for that privilege." Luke says, trying to calm her down.

Her face became blank as Luke delivered the news.

"Why do we have to wait so long Lukey." She whines.

"Maya, and you say I whine a lot." I say.

She gives me a playful glare, something she liked to do quite a lot now, and grabbed a cereal bar.

Her mom had packed lunch for both us, such a sweet mother. Speaking of which, when were my parents coming back from rehab? They've been gone almost 2 weeks now, guessing they had to stay longer.

On my tray, was an apple, some weird chicken nuggets, and a orange juice box, with pudding on the side.

We sat outside, not wanting to go into the cafeteria which was filled with different groups. Our group was never categorized, until now. We were now considered the "nerd/outcast" group. In what way, were we nerds? I don't get it. But, I mean, I never get anything anyways.

----

School was finally over, and we, as in Luke, Maya and I had decided to go to a frozen yogurt shop and have a sleepover.

Now, if you're wondering why Luke was in this, he wanted to join. We invited Zach and Keinah to join, so Luke didn't have to be the only boy there. Unfortunately, Keinah and Zach couldn't make it, leaving two girls and one boy. He didn't mind though.

We reach the yogurt shop, leading to me jumping off the car, and running towards the door. Maya had jumped onto Luke's back, and had yelled, "Onward trusty stead!!" from across the parking lot.

They finally reach the door, eyeing my smirk that I had on my face.

"Wow Luke, already having you ride you. That was easy." I say but, I bursted into laughter a few seconds later.

"You know, for someone that was sad not so long ago, you seem to still have that dirty mind of yours." Luke says, chuckling.

"Come on, you two." Maya blushes, grabbing both our hands and opens the door.

----

After the constant argument between what I should get, I had insisted on getting plain vanilla, with white chocolate syrup, colorful mochi and, some fruit. Maya and Luke shared a large one, one of them saying they would never finish one themselves.

It was pretty much an excuse for Luke to feed Maya and share the same spoon.

----

We finished our yogurts, had arguments whether chocolate or vanilla was better, during the ride home, and we finally made it back in one piece.

Luckily, Luke had more spare clothes in the back, no idea why but, I won't ask anyway.

Throughout the night, we actually did things that were meant for sleepovers. Such as, watched movies, threw a pillow fight, did each others makeup -including Luke's, which is now sporting a red lipstick- and many other things.

We even modeled some clothes and we were now tired. It was around 5 in the morning, on a Saturday. Luckily, it was a Friday and we had never even noticed.

I was the first to fall asleep, my arms and legs spread around the comfy bed.

-The Next Morning-

I woke up the next morning with a happy looking Maya, and a still asleep Luke.

"It's still weird that your mom was fine with Luke sleeping over." I say, as I rub my eyes.

"Well, that was me, when you know who did the same." She said, still smiling.

"What's gotten you so happy all of a sudden, look at you. You can't stop smiling." I laugh at her wide smile that never seemed to fade.

"Well..." She trails.
