breaking apart

the longest ride.

Maya's POV

It was currently 12:50am and im here laying in my bed rubbing my baby bump.
"Just 10 more minutes "
I said to myself.
This was getting stressful. Waiting for lucas was killing me.

My thoughts were interrupted by some shuffling in my window.
"Hey sweethearts " someone said in my window.
Lucas.
"Thank god lucas, i thought you weren't gonna come." I said worried.
"Im here princess. Don't worry." He said while giving me a peak on my lips.
"I already have everything ready." I said smiling.
He smiled back, but soon faded.
"What's wrong?" I asked worried.
"There's only one problem. .....your mom."
He said.
Oh my goodness.
I haven't thought about that.
Her shift ended at 2:00am.
She can be here at any moment.
"Maya? Sweetie? " shit!
My mom is here.
"What are we gonna do?" I asked lucas.
"We have to go. NOW!" He said with a worry expression.

I heard some footsteps on the hallway.
I pushed lucas inside my closet and told him to shut up.
I tossed the covers aside and quickly laid myself into them.
I pretended to be asleep so my mom wouldn't bother me.
"Maya? Are you still awake?" She whispered slowly.
"Mom? Why are you doing here?" I asked with a fake sleepy tone.
"I just wanted to know how you were sweetie. "
She said with a sad tone.
I just wanted to cry.
I stood up from the bed and quickly hugged her tightly.
"I love you mommy." I whispered to her.
"I love you to, my baby." She whispered.
Tears were starting to drizzle down my face.
I quickly wiped them away.

"Okay, you have to rest.
Goodnight. " she said giving me a kiss in my forehead.
I gave her a peek on the cheek.
She let go of me and walked out the door.

After a few seconds, i heard her bedroom door close.
Lucas popped his head out of the closet and slowly came outside.
"Is it safe?" He asked.
"Yes." I said.
"Maya? Sweetheart, we have to go. Our flight leaves at exactly 2:00am, and it's 1:30am." He said.
He was right. We had to go.
I put the 4 letters that I wrote on my small desk across the room and grabbed my bags from my closet.
"I'll take this." He said while taking the bags from my hands.
"Thank you." I said smiling.
He opened the window and placed the bags on his shoulders so he can help me get down.
"Lucas. It's a fire escape.
There are stairs. I can do it by myself. " i said smiling.
"Ohhh, tuff little thing aren't you?" He said laughing.
"Yes. Yes I am. Now go down first." I said giggling.
Once he was going down, i dared to look at my room one last time.
Everything was perfectly organized. The letters were in place and my bed was perfectly made.
"Im gonna miss this room." I whispered to myself.
"It's okay maya. One day WE will come back." He said.
I nodded in agreement and started to go down the fire escape.
But something wasn't right.
I felt like if i had forgotten something.
Then it hit me.
"Crap. Lucas we have to go back." I said.
He gave me a confuse look.
"Why?" He said.

"We forgot the car key's." I said.

"I got that cover already." He said.
He reached down his pockets and pulled out a set of keys.
"When did you took them?" I asked.
"When you were hugging your mom." He said.
Wow. I didn't even noticed.
"Nice." I said.
He gave me a flashing smile.
He is such a tease.

Once we got down the stairs, i was exhausted.
Lucas noticed me.
"Hey princess? Why don't you go lay down in the car and I'll fix the bags?" He asked gently.
I nodded exhausted.
I opened the car door and quickly got inside.
It was cold outside.
I reclined myself against the window and the second I knew, I fell asleep.

"Maya, sweetheart, wake up. We're here." Lucas said in a gently tone.
I slowly begun to open my eyes.
I felt the car stop completely.
"Were are we?" I asked groggily.
"The airport. We have to get in there In time for our flight." He said.
I rubbed my eyes and stretched a little bit.
Good enough.
I opened the door and as soon as I did, cold air send chills down my spine.
I ignored it and went to the back of the car to get my bag.
"What are we gonna do with the car? We can't just leave it here." I said worried.
He gave me a small smile.
"I got that covered already." He said.
Oh boy, he wasn't kidding when he said he was ready to go.
He had everything organized and ready to go.
"Okay. Ready?" He said smiling.
"For anything. " i said.
He took the bags away from me and took my hand.

We walked hand in hand to the airport.
Finally i was getting out of here with the person I loved the most.
I will miss New York.
One day, I will come back with my little kid and lucas.

Once we handed our passports to the lady in the entrance of the plane, we got seated in the very front of the plane.
"Can I have the window seat?" I asked lucas.
I wanted to look at New York just one last time.
"Anything for you baby." He said.
I sat down and begun to wonder my eyes out the window.
New york was.......breathtaking.
It was beautiful at night.
Even though it was 2:30 am.
"Please take your seats and buckle yourself up.
Please turn off all electronics devices.
The plane will begun to take flight in a few minutes. " a women's voice said from the speakers.
I looked at lucas and he was already buckle up.
He reached over my seatbelt and begun to pull it.
"Lucas. I can do it. I dont need your help." I said giving him a smile.
He touched his heart and looked at me in a dramatic way.
"Ouch. That hurts." He said. He begun to make puppy eyes.
"Fine." I said bored.
He cheered in happiness.
Once he was done buckling me, his hands wandered my belly.
"How's the baby?" He said.
It's cute when he cared about the baby.
It makes my heart melt.
"No morning sickness yet." I said in relief.
I usually get them at 7 in the morning.
"Good." He said.
He rubbed my belly slowly and begun to draw little patterns with his index finger.
My moment was interrupted by the grumbling on the plane.
I took lucas's hand and gave it a slight squeeze.
He returned it by linking his hands with mine.

Soon enough the plane begun to take an immense speed.

Before I knew it, The plane took flight.
I let out a breath that I didn't even knew I was holding.
"I love you." Lucas said softly.
I put my head down in his shoulder and whispered "i love you too."
This was going to be a long ride.
"You should get some sleep. Its going to be The Longest Ride." He said.
My eyes were starting to get heavy.
"The Longest Ride. I like those words." I whispered sleepy.
"I like those words too.
Get some sleep princess." He said.
As soon as he said that, I closed my eyes and started to drift into a deep slumber.
