Riley decides to stop by her moms shop to grab some coffee. She sits at an empty booth and orders a coffee and a muffin as she waits she is playing on her phone when she hears a familiar voice.
"funny bumping into you here"
she looks up to see lucas smiling at her
"hey" she replies
they stare at eachother with neither of them saying a word unill lucas decides to break the silence.
"so what brings you here" he asks
"um coffee" she points to the picture of the coffee on the door.
"right" he answers feeling dumb for asking, of course she would be at a coffee shop for coffee. Wait to go Lucas, he tells himself.
Riley starts to get nervous again so she starts to look down and play with her hands.
"mind if I join you?" he asks hoping he wasn't pushing it and making her uncomfortable.
"uh yea sure" riley tries to remain calm but inside shes freaking out
lucas smiles brightly "thanks" he sits across from her.
The waitress comes and brings riley's order and lucas orders a coffee for himself.
=====================================================================================
Maya is sitting on her couch drawing on her sketch pad when there is a knock at the door. She puts her sketchbook on the coffee table and goes to answer it. Josh is standing there with a big envelope.
"hey" she says surprised to see him
"hey is shawn here I wanted to show him some of the pictures I took" he says as he is walking ino the apartment
"he's not home he and my mom went out " maya tells the older boy
"oh okay" josh says about to leave
maya stops him "but they should be back soon, you can wait for him if you want" she offers
josh smiles "thanks maya" he sits down on the couch
=====================================================================================
Back at the café
Riley laughs "you did not"
"no I'm not we really did egg the principal's house" lucas tells her also laughing
"wow and he never knew it was you" riley asked
"nope"
They both continue to laugh for a bit till they are sitting there silent
"I really like talking to you riley" lucas confesses
"me too" riley blushes and looks down
The laughter has died down and now they are just sitting there in silence
"riley?" lucas suddenly asks
"yea?"
"I....."
"Lucas!!!"
They both turn to see Missy approaching them and stands right next to where Lucas is sitting
"Hi Missy" Lucas says awkwardly
"Funny bumping into you here" She says putting an arm on his shoulder
"Yea i guess"
Missy finally turns to acknowledge Riley
"Hello, and you are?" she asks with the most fake smile you have ever seen
"Uh..im..." Riley stutters her shyness kicking in
"This is Riley" Lucas answers for her
"So I hear Zay's having a party on Friday, you'll be there right?" Missy changes the subject
"I guess yea" Lucas says
"Cool well ill see you there, bye lucas" she gives him a flirty smile "oh bye Miley" she says to riley before leaving
Lucas turns to Riley "Sorry about her"
Riley tries to smile "it's okay, well i better get going" she stands up to leave
"Oh, ok" Lucas repies kind of disappointed
Riley begins to leave before Lucas calls her back. Riley Turns to look at him
"Um are you going to Zay's party?" he asks
"I wasn't invited" she points out
"Well i'm inviting you, you can even bring your friends" Lucas offers
"I'm not sure"
"think about it" Lucas insists
Riley nods and turns and leaves the cafe.
Lucas watches her leave with a sigh
==============================================================
Riley wanted to get as far away from the cafe as she could.
She knew better than to get her hopes up, . Seeing them together made her realize that they looked perfect for each other and her and Lucas just wouldn't be a good match. Guys like Lucas don't fall for girls like her, they go for girls like Missy, tall, gorgeous, and popular.
Her and Lucas were just in 2 different worlds
=================================================================================
"So how has the project been coming along?"maya asks
"good, I decided to do mine on the beauty of new York I been taking pictures of different parts of the city" josh explains
"that sounds pretty cool, I'm sure it will be great"
"thanks:" josh smiles at her
just then they hear mayas phone ring from her room
"excuse me ill be right back"
she gets up to go answer the phone. While she is gone josh looks at the coffee table and sees a notebook. Curiosity takes the best of him and he grabs it and looks through it.
Maya comes back to the living room
"that was shawn, he and my mom should here any minute now" maya tells him
"did you do these?" josh asks her
maya realizes what josh was looking at and grabs it quckly.
"yea that's nothing " maya tells him avoiding josh's eyes
"maya that is not nothing, those sketches are amazing" josh tells her
"it's no big deal, just something I do on my free time" maya shrugs
"no big deal? Maya you have some serious talent" josh insists
"they're just sketches josh"
"they're not just sketches, its art, you're an artist maya" josh insists
maya blushes at the compliment "thanks josh"
they continue to just stare at each other until they hear the door open
"hey josh, sorry I kept you waiting"
josh looks away from maya and looks at shawn "no problem"
"well lets take a look at what you got " shawn sits to look at the pictures.
Maya decides now is a good time to excuse herself
"ill be in my room" she begins to walk to her room she turns to take one last look and her eyes meet josh's eyes and she quickly turns to her room.
