Chapter 3 : Best worst date ever

Maya's pov:

"Hi sweetie how was your day?" My mom said when I walked in the house.

"It's alright I guess" I say and ran into my room.

I jumped into my bed to watch The Vampire Diaries. Then, I saw a notification from an unknown number. When I looked at it, it was from Lucas. I started jumping and screaming. I usually don't get so girly, but he's just so sweet.

Lucas : hey, it's lucas
Me : hey what's up?
Lucas : Idk, I'm really bored.
Me : me 2
Lucas : hey, let's hang out
Me : sure, where do you want to go?
Lucas : want to go to Santa Monica pier?
Me : sure
Lucas : okay, I'll pick you up in 10 minutes
Me : kay, see you later

I started to freak out. I literally have nothing to wear. I started to make a mess. All of my clothes are on the floor. Then, I decided to just wear a high wasted jean short with a plain black t shirt. Then, I started to do my make up and hair. Then, I go get my black old skool vans and go outside. And I saw Lucas already waited me there.

"Hey, sorry you waited so long" I say getting on the car.

"I actually just got here. By the way you look gorgeous" I started to blush like hell. Then, Lucas turn on the radio and started to sing 'How to be a heartbreaker' I started laughing so hard and decided to sing too.

We finally arrived at Santa Monica pier. We started playing some carnival games and Lucas win me a giant teddy bear. Then, we decided to ride the roller coaster. It was soo fun. Maybe because he hold my hand because I was so scared.

The sun started going down, so we decided to take a walk around the beach. "So tell me about yourself" Lucas said breaking the silence

"Well me and my mom moved here to LA when my mom and dad got divorced" I said, trying to avoid eye contacts.

"I'm sorry. I know how it feels, my parents got divorced when I was four. Me and my dad stop talking since then"  He said looking at the ground.

"Anyways, I don't like talking about it. So yeaa..." I said a bit nervous for some reason and he nodded understandingly.

"what's your hobbies?" he asked me

"Well I love acting, but I like music too, I just never tell anyone" I said smiling at him.

"So if you love acting so much, why do you quit?" He asked me

"I didn't quit, I just wanted a little break. I wanted to be a normal girl. I wanted to go to a party, and go to high school" I explains.

"You know it's not worth it right?" He said and I got confused.

"What do you mean?" I asked him, really confused.

"Quitting all your hard work just for high school. High school sucks. I mean you have to wake up at 6am Monday through Friday, you have to take classes that will have absolutely nothing to do with your future plans in life, you have to stay up until the early hours of the morning doing homeworks on weekdays and weekends, you have to take tests based on material that was barely covered in class"

"Maybe, but if I didn't go to school I wouldn't have met you" I said, a little shy.

I noticed he started leaning in, so I did the same thing. Just when we're about to kiss. There 's a bunch of paparazzi taking pictures and asking me about Lucas. I looked at Lucas and he looks so pissed. And he pulled me to his car and drive home. I see there's a lot of paparazzi following us, so Lucas drive faster which makes me scared. But then we lost them. The rest of the car ride was super awkward.

We finally arrived at my house. "Hey, thanks for today I had a lot of fun. Well, until the paparazzi showed up" I said a bit nervous.

"Yeah, I had a lot of fun too" He said.

Just when I was about to get out of the car, he grabbed my hand and turned me around to kiss him. It feels like electric wire ran through the entire body and there was sense of some shivering inside.

As we pulled away I heard him said "I'm sorry, I'm just really pissed that we got interrupted earlier" I chuckled in responds. "I mean it would be a lot more romantic at the beach with the sunset and all"

"Beach or not, it's still be the most amazing date" I tell him.

"Yeah, it is" He nodded, agree to what I said.

"Thank you for tonight Friar" I said, giving him a peck in the cheeks.
