Maya's POV:
When I woke up I looked around me and noticed I was in my room. What happened....? All I remember was sitting next to Farkle then bam I fell asleep. I shake my head to clear my thoughts and get ready to take a shower.I grab my brush and towel and head out and notice it was quiet. Too quiet....... I look around and see that Shawn was actually asleep and so was Farkle. I look over at the clock and see it said 8:30 a.m. Woah I have never woken up early in my life, well on my own I haven't. I quietly enter the bathroom and turn on the shower. As I step in I feel the warm water hit my body and I immediately felt relaxed. This, felt good, I felt energized.....is this what it felt to be a morning person...? No wonder why they like it so much. As I finish taking my shower I step out and wrap my towel around me and another one for my hair. I step out quietly as to not wake anyone up seeing as no one had woken up yet. I enter my room and lock it. I don't want anyone walking in on me....I wouldn't be able to live with my self. I quickly get dressed. I pick out some high waisted denim shorts considering it was summer and I wear a crop top that stopped just about where the shorts started. One good thing about being short...... Is that I don't have to worry about showing 'too much skin'. I then get started on my hair. I take my hair towel off and wonder if I should curl it or blow dry it. You know maybe I should try something different. I feel kinda different since I woke up in the morning. Maybe I should just straighten it. I then realize if I blow dry my hair it will wake them up. Oh well I guess I'll let it air dry for today..... I sat on my bed and wrapped my hair away from my face so it wouldn't drip on me. I took out a sketchbook from under my bed and began to draw. It was basically 2 min. Before I heard my door slowly open. I turn to see Shawn poke his head in and he seemed to be surprised to see me. "You're awake...?!" He asked surprised. I smile and nod "I know right?!" I said sarcasm dripping through my voice. He chuckled and said "that's a first...." I smiled but then I felt a sharp pain slice through my stomach. My smile must have vanished because Shawn looked worried and said "hey you ok kid....?" I grimaced and nodded. The pain still lingering in my abdomen. I then felt my back give a sharp sensation. I closed my eyes. What was happening...? Shawn walked over and said "what's wrong?!" In a worried tone. I shake my head to dismiss it. I then realized what happened. "Shawn what day is it...?" I ask out of nowhere. He looks at me questioningly and said "the first day of July". Dammit. "Why you ask...?" He questioned. I shrugged and waved it off, " I'm fine Shawn" I really wasn't, my insides were having a war because of stupid period cramps. I looked at Shawn and he looked skeptical. "Maya are you sure your ok?" I nod my head. I then say "go on shoo go make breakfast or something," he gets up and walks toward the door to leave. "Wait!-" I say before he left. He turned back and said "yea?". I looked down and said "could you buy me chocolate...?" I had to. The cravings!! He looked confused and said "umm-ok" I nodded and said "thanks!" He nodded and left. I got up slowly and felt like I had peed myself. Aww man I just took a shower. I look around my body and see red streaks were making their way around my thighs. Shit. I grab my towel and wrap myself in it. I look in my drawer to see, I didn't have any pads. Double shit. Aww man now what....?! Ok I have 3 choices: use toilet paper as a pad, ask Farkle to buy me pads, or ask Shawn to get me pads. The first one is least embarrassing. I slowly make my way to the bathroom without getting noticed and I entered quickly and shut the door behind me. I could hear 2 voices. Farkle must have woken up. I look around and see that there was no more toilet paper. Triple shit. I look in the cabinets to see if there was anymore and with my luck there wasn't. How could I forget to buy pads when I went out yesterday to buy more color pencils...?! I now had 2 choices left. Farkle or Shawn...... This has got to be the worst day ever. Then I heard someone knock on the door. "Ah!" I yell and fall into the sink. "Oh! Uh sorry Maya!" It was Farkle. "Oh um it's ok Farkle I was just um-brushing my teeth." "Oh ok! Well are you ok...?" I didn't reply. "Maya....?" He asked clearly getting worried. "Uh-um-yea-yea I'm fine perfectly fine." Except I'm not because I'm wearing a towel on top of my shorts to prevent you guys from seeing my period flow. I should probably ask Farkle......he is my boyfriend after all. "Farkle...?" I say. No response. I look under the door and see he was gone. OH COME ON!! I slowly got up and another pain shot up through my abdomen. This was agony. I slowly opened the door to see Shawn and Farkle talking at the counter. I quickly ran to my room and shut the door. Now what?! Riley!!! oh my god why didn't I think of this before...?! I look for my phone. Huh that's funny where did I put my phone...? I had it when I-slept next to Farkle...dammit! I sigh and stand in front of my door. "FARKLE!" I yell. I heard shuffling of feet and I heard his voice on the other side "yea? I'm here you ok?" I glance around and ask nervously "could-you um get me my phone...?" A pause. "Why didn't you just come out and get it yourself...?" He asked cautiously. I sigh and then I heard Shawn's voice "hey what's going on?" I promise things probably couldn't get worse. "I don't know she's acting weird....." Farkle said from the other side. "Maya are you sure your ok?" Shawn asked "hey let me in...." He said wiggling he door knob that I had locked. "I-uh can't do that Shawn" another pause "why not...?" He asked carefully. "I-um- just can't just get me my phone!" I heard someone leave and come back and say "it's dead". Things just got worse. FUCK.... "Maya are you ok...?! Please let us in...." Farkle reasons while trying to move the doorknob. "I place my forehead on my door and say "can one of y'all call Riley....?" "Maya....Riley and auggie are out of town right now they are with Morgan...." I shut my eyes close and yell "DAMMIT!" This probably wasn't a good thing to say because then I heard Shawn say "Maya open the door right now! Are you hurt or something?!" "No!!" I holler back. "Just- something" I mumble. "Somethin what....?" Farkle asked softly. Aw man...... "Guys I'm gonna ask you to do something......and-and I need you guys to know that I will not leave my room for the rest of the week-" I say. "What? What do you need...?" I heard Shawn ask concerned. "I need one of you.... To volunteer to do something......" I say. "Maya come out this is just getting crazy" I heard Shawn say. Ugh they don't understand. "MAYA OPEN THE DOOR YOUR SCARING US!!" Shawn yelled banging the door. "YOU WANNA KNOW WHATS BOTHERING ME?!" I yell back getting angry. "YEA I DO!" Shawn yells back. "Guys lets calm down-" I heard Farkle say. "WELL MY UTERUS DECIDED THEY WERE GOING INTO WAR AND IM BLEEDING OUT OF MY VAGINA THATS WHATS HAPPENING SHAWN!" I yell cutting him off. Silence. That's what I thought. Then I heard a thud. "Um-Maya....?" I heard Farkle say softly. "Yea?" I reply calming down. "Shawn just fainted" my eyes widened and opened the door slightly just enough to look out and see Shawn knocked out on the floor. Oh boy. Shawn then got up and said "I'm sorry I asked" I nodded and he got up and walked away to think about what happened. "Farkle....?" I say and he looks at me and says "yea?" I blush and say "could you go to the store and buy me pads...?" I look up just in time to
see Farkle faint. This is just killing me. "Farkle please!!" I ask. He gets up and says.... "What kind and what brand?" He just made my day.....I told him the brand and what type and before he left I said "could you buy me chocolate?" He smiled and said "yea-sure why not you are having an internal battle after all-" I smiled and with that he left. 25 min later I heard a knock on my door and I yelled out "who is it...?" "It's me" Farkle said. I ran up to the door and said "Farkle you are a life saver....." I opened the door a little and Farkle handed me the bag through the small opening of the door. I grabbed the bag and breathed a sigh of relief. I look inside the bag and see he got everything right. I'm impressed. Then I noticed that he bought extra things, I'll look at it later right now I just need to get cleaned. I looked under the door to see Farkle had just walked away. I quickly make my way to the bathroom. Thank god that's over. I change and put on a pad and get cleaned up. I get back inside my room and change my clothes completely. I changed into joggers and a comfy t-shirt. I am not really putting an effort into my appearance to be honest. I wrap my hair in a bun and decide to look at what Farkle got me. I open the bag and see he had bought Advil, 5 different kinds of chocolate, a box of tissues and a heat pack. This is the best thing that could have happened to me.........he literally got everything I need. How did he even know...?! I walk out seeing as I had fixed myself and I went to check on Shawn. Farkle and Shawn were watching tv. This is gonna be awkward. I take a deep breath and quietly curse at my uterus for making this happen. I walk over and say "Shawn are you ok...?" "AH!" Shawn yelled and flinched and jumped up. I stopped myself from laughing. Why is he so easily scared....? He looked at me and straightened his shirt and cleared his throat, "uh-yea I'm fine you um-scared me-" he said. He is scared that I'm on my period...? His eyes widened and he stuttered "oh-no I didn't mean I was scared of you-I'm mean I was scared of what you did- when-you just walked up-just now-like-30 second ago...." "Shawn, calm down" I say cutting him off. He looked really nervous, if not embarrassed. I sit down on another chair and say "look I'm sorry I yelled at you about all that, it's just you know raging emotions inside-" he cut me off and said "no I am sorry for even forcing you to tell me I probably should have just been patient-it's just that you really scared us," Farkle looked at me and smirked and said "some more than others....." Obviously teasing Shawn for fainting. He nudged Farkle on the ribs and he backed off smiling. I smiled and said "yea well- trust me it was no fun having to say that to you guys that was probably the most embarrassing moment I have ever experienced." Silence. "Um-im gonna go back-in my room so you guys don't have any more troubles.....if you need me just knock." And with that I get up and leave. I entered my room and looked at my bed. Red. "Shit....." I mumble and take the bed sheet off my bed. Just then I heard a knock. "Oh- Um hold on a second...!" I yell. And I stuff the bed sheet in my closet. I then rush and compose my self and open the door. I see Farkle standing there looking a little bit nervous. "Uh-hey...." I say feeling awkward having To face him alone. He looked at me and smiled and asked "can I-uh talk to you.....?" I nodded and open the door wider to let him in. He nodded and walked in. I closed the door and sat on my bed. He walked over and sat next to me. He looked at me quizzically and said "didn't you have a bed sheet...?" I shake my head no denying it. He shrugged and said "um, so how did I do...?" I must have looked confused because he then adds "you know the materials and stuff...." Oh. OH! I smile and say "oh yea it was perfect! How did you know I would need all that?!" He chuckled and said "well Lucas rants on the days Riley had hers and frankly I'm lucky I remembered what he said". I grinned and said "thank you so much......" He nodded and said "well, so can I ask something...?" I nodded. He looked around nervously and asked "why did Shawn faint when you said that...?" I tried to suppress my giggles but some escaped anyway "wait your telling me you had no idea what I yelled...?" He shook his head no blushing. I laughed. This was priceless but I'm glad he didn't know what I said. "Aw man" I say wiping a tear from my eye. He looked confused. "You always fainted in health class didn't you....?" I ask chuckling. "Yea....." He said nervously chuckling. Once I explained everything I saw that by Farkle's face he probably wishes he didn't know what it was. He glanced up at me and said "how bad does it hurt...?" I looked around trying to sum up the excruciating pain I was in just by sitting in this position I was in. I looked at him and asked "what is the biggest number you know?" He looked around and said "infinity" I then said "well it's about right there" his eyes widened and said "wait it hurts that bad...?!" I nodded and grimaced and said "to be honest I'm dying just sitting like this......" He looked at me worriedly and said "then change your position to a comfier one...." I shook my head and said "there are none...." He then said "just take an Advil...." I looked at him and said "that doesn't fix it all babe....." He grabbed my hand and said "well what can I do to help...?" I grabbed his hand and said "not much but save yourself from the trouble...." He arches a brow not understanding. "For Riley Lucas has to sit through her crying and other random emotions and frankly I would give him a trophy for putting up with it, but for me you would have to sit through endless amounts of complaining and whining and random sudden urges of who-knows-what......" I say he nods. I rub his shoulder comfortingly and say "hey thank you for everything though....it means a lot.....you can carry on about your day I'll be here if you need me...." He smiles and says "ok....." He gets up and I get up, walking through the pain shooting around my body. I stopped him and he turned to me questioningly. I gave him a peck on the lips but it soon turned into a deeper kiss. He rested his hand on my waist and I wrapped my arms around his neck. A minute goes by before I realize it's just the hormones. Ugh.... Should I push him away or maybe have.....'it'? Wait what am I thinking?! No! No sex! I broke away from the kiss and we stood there trying to regain our oxygen back. I placed my hands on his chest and mumbled "s-sorry I shouldn't have done that...." He smiled and placed his hand under my chin and lifted my head so I could look at his eyes. "Why would you be sorry...?" He asked softly. "I-um-shouldnt-because-uhhhhh" I stuttered out losing my train of thoughts as Farkle leaned in closer to me. My eyes almost closed but I had to stop this before my hormones took control. "Farkle....." I say pushing him back a little. He looked at me worriedly "what's wrong ...?" I glanced around the room nervously and said "I'm-sorry if we do that my body might take over with the other emotions and well...... Other things happen....." He smiled softly and said "alright so how long does this last....?" I think for a second and respond "about a week" he looked kinda shocked and said "a whole week worth of pain...?!" I nodded. "Be strong and call me if you need anything...." I nodded and he pecked me on the cheek and walked out.
