♡Maya's POV♡
  "Riles? You ready?" I asked, watching her burying her face in her phone. Hey... don't say I'm being mean or anything but she was probably on her phone typing some sappy love message to Bucky McBoingBoing. He had better treat her well or else I swear I will hunt him down and kill him personally.
  I grinned, imagining Ranger Rick's death by my hands. "Maya! I'm ready!" Riley's voice brought me out of my daydream.
  I always met Riley at her house and after that we would take the subway to school together. And damn does her mom make great pancakes!
•••••••••••
We arrived at school not a moment too late. The bell rang as we stepped in together. We took our seats beside each other, Riley in front of Farkle and me in front of Lucas. I checked my timetable, it was History for first period.
  I looked up and there was Mr Matthews confirming my thoughts.
  "Today the Trojan War. " Mr Matthews said as he wrote 'Trojan War' on the board.
"But sir! We already covered that topic!" Farkle said.
"Oh not entirely. We are going to be focusing on the love triangle between Helen, Paris and Odysseus. You see Helen was the fairest woman throughout the land. When Odysseus was not with her, there were many people trying to court her. They were all jealous of Odysseus and took that opportunity to try get Helen fall in love with them. But Helen refused. And Odysseus came back and killed all the suitors. Lesson Over. " Mr Matthews said, staring at me. 
What. Was there something on my face? "You may leave now. " He said just as the bell rang, signalling for second period. I had memorised when my art lessons were as they were my favourite lessons. I grabbed my art supplies and made my way to the art room for Ms Kossal's art lesson.
•••••••••
"That's a very interesting piece there Maya. Would you care explaining it?" Ms Kossal asked. I looked at my painting. Never before have I added so many colours inside one of my artworks before. It honestly felt more like a rant than a art piece. It had all my doubt and fears inside. Somehow it felt private, something I would not be comfortable with sharing with the class. I shook my head gently then continued painting.
The next time I was interrupted was when i heard loud laughing sounds coming from beside me. I raised my gaze to give the person my signature 'killer' glare. When I saw it was Riley and Lucas, I softened. It was natural for a couple to do this Maya. Stop behaving like you've got a stick up your ass! I told myself harshly. I have got to stop behaving like a bitch seeing Riley and Lucas behaving like that. Wait...was I jealous of them for... STOP. I forced myself to stop thinking about this matter now and proceeded with my art piece, a class that I was actually good at.
•••••••••
The lesson next was math, held by Mr Morris. He usually turned a blind eye on people who were not paying attention so I was free to think then.
I think I am jealous of Riley and Lucas's relationship. What if I never found someone I could be with? My thoughts unexpectedly floated to Joshua Gabriel Matthews. He was my first and current crush. I had told him about my feelings but he brushed it away. Telling me I was too young. But the girl always gets the boy. Right?
