Riley's POV
I shot up out of bed quickly, my heart beating out of my chest.
I had a dream. A weird one. Okay well, a good weird maybe? I don't know.
I dreamt that Maya and I were dating, and we were being all cute with each other, and I got to wrap my arms around her, and kiss her, and I called her my girlfriend. It was the best dream ever, since obviously none of that would ever happen in person. How come I feel so odd now? Of course, I would love to date Maya, but maybe it's because I know I can't.
~~~
A few days have gone by since I had the dream, and I feel like I have to tell Maya. I've been acting unusual and I know it. I know she's noticed too. So, I invited her to my mom's cafe when I know it'll be closed. I'm going to tell her despite how she'll react. I just can't keep my feelings from her anymore, I've liked her ever since we met. No, I've loved her.
~~~
I sat on the benches in the cafe, about to vomit. The silence was eating away at me, until I heard the door open slowly. "Hey Riles," she smiled at me like she usually does, but I can't help but feel it's different, "Where is everyone?"
"Uh my mom closed early today." I answered.
"Oh that's probably why my mom was home early."
I nodded and motioned for her to sit by me on the bench.
I took a rugged breath and turned towards her. Her facial expression was so innocent and loving. The corners of her mouth were twisted upward into a cute little smile, her eyes begging for me to say something. Anything.
"Is, everything okay?" She questioned.
"Yeah- yeah, fine. I just really needed to tell you something."
"No yeah anything Riley, what is it?"
"I woke up from a dream a couple days ago. And you were in it."
"Oh great, was Huckleberry in it too?"
"No, it- it was just you and I." My eyes flew back and forth between her eyes and my fidgeting hands.
"Oh I can't wait to hear this." She laughed.
I got up and paced away from her, "Well," I started.
"Riles-"
I walked over to Maya and sat on her lap and draped my arms on her shoulders.
"I was sitting like this."
"Mmhm."
I swallowed nervously and trailed my shaking hand up to her face and brushed away a hair that was laying there.
"And I-I did this sometimes."
I laid my head on her shoulder, breathing softly into her neck. I felt her arms snake their way around my waist as she embraced me.
"And sometimes," I lifted my head up, "I would trace invisible shapes on your thighs, and, and I would watch you as you fell onto your back on my bed, and I would rest my head on my hand and smile at your cute face (A/N: kinda like this adorable picture of Coley and Sonya), and I would- I would stare into your eyes and see my whole life, and I would do this," I stumbled across my words and I spit them out all of once, before I was even done rambling my love for this girl I had her face in my hands and her lips only inches from mine. Her eyes were wide but her arms were still engulfing me in a shaky cuddle. I sighed, "I- I did this," I brushed my lips against hers, and she didn't move. Fuck it. I leaned in and met her lips with mine. Eventually I pulled away. "Only it wasn't real. None of it."
She still hadn't said anything and I felt tears welling up. I started to get up but I felt a sharp jolt pull me back down. All of sudden I felt the familiar lips on mine again, only this time, we were moving in sync.
"I wish you would have that dream more often." She said breathlessly, resting her forehead on mine. I nodded and laughed equally breathlessly.
I stood up and took Maya's hand in mine and kissed it. I flourished my arm out towards the door, "After you." I smiled and so did Maya.
She stopped in the doorway and spun around. "I," she held onto my hands, "Am in love with you, Riley Matthews."
I could only smile and hug her.
"Wait, that reminds me of something else that happened."
"Oh, and that might be?"
"I called you my girlfriend." I blurted.
"I can't say I wouldn't like that." She smirked.
"C'mon. I have homework." She said.
She laughed and took my hand and squeezed it. I grabbed her shoulder tightly and pulled her in again for another kiss. This time, it felt kinda normal.
Maya smiled into the kiss. "I, am in love with you too, Maya Hart." I said quietly.
