Two Worlds Collide

Chapter 8

Maya POV

Lucas and I have been texting quite a bit ever since our date the last night. We planned on hanging out this weekend while Lily was at her Dads.  Lucas said he was going to have his best friend Zay's girlfriend keep Jordan again. After Lily and I arrived at her school this morning I decided that once Lucas got there that I was going to leave and wait for him outside the classroom. I felt if I wanted to keep our relationship on the down low from Lily at first that this would be the best way to do it. Once he got there I went out and stood outside of the classroom door and waited for him. Only 5 minutes went by until he came out. 

"Maya? What are you doing." he asked confused once he saw me standing there. 

"I was waiting for you." I answered. 

"Oh good! I was afraid you were mad at me." he chuckled as we began to walk out of the school together. 

"Oh my goodness, no not at all. I just figured this would be better so that Lily and Jordan don't see us leave together everyday." I laughed.

"Good thinking. I'm glad you want to see me again." he replied as entered the parking lot. 

He walked me to my car and we stopped to talk for a few minutes before we had to leave. I wish that we had more time but unfortunately duty calls and we needed to get to work soon.

"Of course. I can't stop thinking about that kiss from last night." I blurted out. 

Lucas looked at me and smirked "It was that good?" he chuckled and I blushed. 

I leaned up against my car and crossed my arms against my chest before looking up at him and smiling "Look at you smirking. You're proud of yourself for that aren't you?" 

Lucas stood in front of me cupping my cheek with his hand "Yep. I'm glad I had that effect on you." he answered before slowly leaning in and kissing me but this time putting a lot more into the kiss. 

We broke a part and I looked up at him with a smile "Couldn't help yourself could you?" 

"I've been wanting to do that since I saw you this morning." he answered truthfully. "And I hate to leave you hanging but I got to go to work." 

I rolled my eyes at him "Yeah, me too and don't even lie. You love leaving me hanging." 

"Yep, I do." 

"Whatever, Huckleberry. See you tomorrow." I replied. 

"Did you just call me Huckleberry?" he asked confused. 

"Yep." I said as I started to unlock my car door. 

"Later short stack." he said as he walked away and I couldn't help but chuckle. 

Today was a slow at work and I didn't have to worry about picking up my baby girl today since her Dad would be picking her up after school today. I decided to just have a lazy night at home tonight. I was laying on the couch watching an episode of Pretty Little Liars when the doorbell rang. I assumed that maybe it was Riles stopping in. 

"Coming." I yelled as I ran up to the door and opened it. Imagine my surprise to see Lucas standing on the other side. "Lucas?"  I said as I saw it was him on the other side of the door. 

"Hey." he said with a smile. "I know this is random for me to pop in but I knew Lily was at her Dads and since Jordan wanted to hang out with Zay and his girlfriend Vanessa I figured I'd see if you wanted to hang out?" 

"Yes. of course! Come in. I was just watching an episode of Pretty Little Liars." I replied as I stood to the side so he could come in. 

Lucas and I walked over and sat down on the couch. He was looking so handsome and I swear one of these days he was going to say something about me staring at him. 

Lucas looked over and smiled at me "You know how glad I am that you listened to Riley?"

"You're so sweet, Huckleberry. I'm glad I listened to her too." I said with a smile. 

"Jordan talks about Lily nonstop. I'll be forever grateful for her being so nice to him. He was honestly so worried that he wouldn't make any new friends at his new school." he replied. "You've done such a good job raising her. I know I've told you that before but I wanted to say it again." 

"Lily adores Jordan. Riley told me they are inseparable at school." I replied. "She says that are best friends." 

"We should get them on a play date sometime. We don't even need to let on anything." he suggested. "Like we could just take them to the park and let them play together." 

"I'm okay with that. Eventually if this continues we will have to tell them at some point." I replied and for the first time ever I was actually starting to like the idea of Lucas and I as a couple. 

"Yeah of course. Maybe once we see where this goes we could sit them both down and talk to them at the same time. The two of us together." he replied. 

"I think that's a good idea." I said in agreement. 

Lucas looked at me with a smirk upon his face "How did you like that kiss this morning?" 

I rolled my eyes and smiled "I liked it. It was even better than the first time." 

"I have to agree with you there." he replied and I chuckled. 

"Can I admit something to you?" I said as nervousness I bit my bottom lip. 

"yes you can tell me anything."  he replied. 

"I hope things work out with us because I really like you." I replied "And I know that may sound a bit crazy but I do." 

" You aren't crazy at all. I feel the same way." he said with a smile. 

I scooted over to Lucas so that I was closer to him. I bit my bottom lip nervously debating on whether or not I wanted to kiss him. I decided to just go over it. He looked at me and smiled as I looked him in his beautiful green eyes. I slowly leaned in as I cupped his cheek and closed the gap between our faces gently placing my lips on his. I licked his bottom lip wanting more access and he gave it to me. I put more into the kiss and after about 30 seconds we both came up for air. 

"I love kissing you." I said causing him to smile. 

"I think I love kissing you too." he answered as he leaned in and placed his lips on mine again. 

Lucas and I ended up watching a movie on Netflix. He left around 8:30 to go pick up his son and go home. It was nice to hang out with him here at my place. I was really liking where things were going with him and I. I can't wait to see what the future brings us.
