Maya grabbed her toothbrush, "She said she was going on a date with Shawn and that she'd be back late" Maya said Putting her toothbrush under the Faucet. "You don't think they pulled an All nighter do you" Riley said looking at Maya. Maya smiled, "I am just glad she's finally moved on from Kermit" Maya said grabbing the toothpaste. Riley sat down on the toilet seat, "Maya" Riley said. "Yeah" Maya said while brushing her teeth. "I like Lucas" Riley said, Maya choked on the toothpaste and quickly spit it out. "What?!?" Maya said finally putting her toothbrush down and Looking at riley. "I'm sorry, i can't control how i feel! It's just.. when i saw him that time in the hospital i kinda fell for him" Riley said. "So what do you want me to do about that?" Maya said grabbing a towel and Wiping her mouth." Nothing" Riley said getting up from the toilet. "I just wanted you to know" Riley said, "i'm gonna go make us some breakfast" Riley said before leaving the bathroom. "aren't you gonna brush your teeth?" Maya said, "Yeah right after your done" Riley replied walking into the kitchen and Getting out some yogurts. The dor bell rang, Maya andRiley ran to the door. "Why do you have to open the door!?" Maya yelled pushing riley to the side. "Because i'm a Cinnamon roll!" Riley said, "WELL cinnamon roll AND MAC AND CHEESE DON"T GO VERY GOOD TOGETHER DO THEY" Maya screamed shoving riley on the couch. The doorbell rang again, "Coming" Riley said all sweetly. Maya finally opened the door, "Hey Lucas" Maya said Opening the door just a little bit. Riley was trying to pull her away from it. "Hey! is everything okay?" Lucas asked seeing that Riley was trying to pull Maya away from the door. "Yea! Everything is just wonderful" Maya said Smiling at him. "Would you just give me one second" Maya replied. "Uh, Yeah sure" Lucas said. Maya slamed the door and Tackled Riley, "Your not the only one that gets to have crushes on someone!" Riley screamed. "Since when did i say i had a crush on mac and cheese?" Maya screamed back at her. "You didn't have to! I can tell! Because why else would you have wanted to open the door if you didn't like him?" Riley said. Maya looked stunned for a minute, Riley pushed her off of her. Maya screamed and fell on the floor. Riley ran to the door and opened it to see lucas's face. "Hey There" riley said smiling at Lucas, "Hey" Lucas laughed. "Come on in" Riley said opening the door wide enough to for Lucas to walk in. "Where'd Maya Go?"

He walked over to the Driver side and Climbed inside the truck. "I said i was fine walking in the rain you dumbass" Maya said. Lucas grabbed a Blanket from the backseat and Put it around Maya. Maya Looked annoyed at first but Wrapped the blanket around her. Lucas started the engine and Drove down the road. After 2 minutes of silence between Maya and Lucas, Lucas turned on the heater for Maya so she coul warm up. "Why are you being so caring to me?" Maya asked him. "Because i care about you. I didn't Mean to, But we've been Friends since we were five. And ever since them i've cared about you" Lucas said keeping his eyes on the rode.
