Opposites Attract

My Future?!

Maya's outfit above
Maya's POV
I didn't have much time to get ready. Josh was going to pick me up at 6:30 and it's already 5:00. What was I doing this whole time! Oh right I was pondering on how life hates me. I had taken a shower the night before so all I did was curl my hair. I decided to twit some of my hair back and pin it with some bobby pins. I went over to my closet and grabbed my dress form the hanger. I spun around in it and I felt like a princess. I know cheesy but I still loved it. I didn't go that extraen for my make up. Jus some foundation, mascara and some red lipstick. I heard the door bell ring and I started panicking. Josh wasn't supposed to be here for another half hour! I ran to the door with my shoes and coat in one hand and phone and purse in the other. "I'm coming!" I yelled. I opened up the door and of course there stood early Josh. "Hey I came a little earlier then expected- Wow you look beautiful," he exclaimed. "Thank you. And it's fine I'm almost ready any way. I sit on the couch and put my shoes on. I stand up and realize I'm almost as tall as Josh. The one time I'm actually tall! I grabbed my purse and keys and we headed out the door. He kept trying to make conversation but I didn't feel like talking. I spoke any way because I didn't want him to get suspicious. "So how's school been?" He asks. "Pretty good," I respond. "Oh well that's nice." The rest of the way we tried not to talk. We were siting in silence when Let it Go by James Bay came on. It was my favorite song so I sang.

So come on let it go
Just let it be
Why don't you be you
And I'll be me
Everything's that broke
Leave it to the Breeze
Why don't you be you
And I'll be me.

When the song ended I caught Josh staring. "What are you stating at," I ask. "Nothing it's just that I don't see you as the signing type," he says. Ok I got to be honest, that kinda hurt. "Really why?" I ask. "Oh don't get me wrong you sound fine it's just that you don't strike me as a singer. I see you more as a Pediatrician." Ok was he freaken serious. Did he just say Pediatrician? As in a doctor! "Uh really why a Pediatrician?" I ask. "Well you want a well paying job don't you. Especially if we're going to have three kids." Ok now he was full on scaring me. "Three kids?! Josh I'm barley 15! Slow down," I tell him. "Your right, I'm sorry. I just get excited about our future together." He's already talking about our future! I don't even know what I'm going to eat later and he wants me to start figuring out my future! Oh and do you hear that? Oh yeah that's the sound of my dreams being flushed down the toilet!
When we arrived at Riley's we saw a couple of other people already there. I walked in and hung my coat up. "Peaches!" Riley said as she ran up to me. "Hey Riles! Wow the place looks amazing." "Thanks. I couldn't have done it without you," she says. She spots Lucas and runs off to him. Josh was talking to Cory and Topanga so I walked over to the window and sat down. I sat silently listening to different conversations. I kinda wanted to go home but I didn't want to disappoint Riley. I heard a knock on the door and Riley running to the door. "I GOT IT!" She yelled. She opened the door and there stood Farkle and Smackle. I suddenly got this feeling in my stomach that I didn't like. I felt sad, angry and jealous all at the same time. Why won't this feeling go away! I decided to get up and walk around. I needed to get my mind of if this and just socialize. I went over to the food and drink table to poor myself some punch. "Hey." Someone came up to me and startled me. I turned around and saw Farkle. "Oh hey Farkle. Enjoying your self," I say. "Yeah I am," he responds. "You look beautiful by the way," he tells me. "Thanks Farkle. You look nice too." I kinda blushed to I turned away so he couldn't see. "Um where's Josh?" He asks. "Oh he's here..somewhere." "You shouldn't be alone. Come on let's go dance," he says and extends his arm to me. I had the urge to take it but I couldn't. "I...um..should probably yeah I should probably go," I say. I run out the door and walk up to the roof. Once I got there I started crying. I can't do this! I can't be around someone I love and know that I can never be with them! Why does this have to happen to me?! I sat down on the bench and just look out onto the city. I feel so small whenever I look out onto the city. Kinda makes me feel like my problems are just as small. I closed my eyes and just breathed in the cold air. I heard foot steps coming up the stairs AN turned around. I course it was Farkle. "Maya what the heck! I have no idea what has been going on with you! Two days ago you were fine and now your acting like I don't even exist! Did I do something cause I don't think I did anything wrong!" He was right. He didn't do anything wrong, I did. I shut him out, I ignored him, I did this all to myslef. This is all my fault. "I'm sorry," I say. "No sorry isn't going to cut it! I've been trying Maya to talk to you but you just shut me out! You know how hard it's been to talk to you!?" "Oh you think you've had it hard! Try seeing the one person you think you love be with someone else because you were too of a coward to tell them your feelings!" My blood was boiling. I had never spoken to Farkle like this before. "What the heck are you talking about Maya!?" He asks. "I love you Farkle! Ok you hear me, I love you! And I've been in love with you I guess since last year I just didn't know it till now! And now I have to pretend to like Josh and pretend it doesn't hurt to see you with Smackle!" Oh my gosh it felt really good to with that off my chest. Farkle wasn't saying anything he just stood there staring at me. "Farkle say something," I tell him. He didn't say anything. "Maya why didn't you tell me?" He asks. "Because I thought you would leave like everyone else in my life. And you can if you want. Just go, be with your girlfriend," I tell him. "No," he says. "What?" I ask. "I said no. I'm not going to be with Smackle because she's not the girl I love," he told me as he got closer. "The girl I love is tough, she's courages and speakers her mind. She's not afraid to defend herself and she's the most beautiful girl I have ever met. She's a bit short and has long curly blond hair. Her eyes are bluer than the ocean and I get lost in them every time." He got closer and closer till we were basically sharing the same air. "When are you planing on telling her?" I ask. "Now," he says. He grabs me by mywaist and pulls me closer. Our lips touch and I feel this spark I've been waiting so long to feel. I have heard people talk about how when you kiss someone it feels like fireworks but I didn't feel like that. It felt like...I was home.
