My hidden silence (on hold)

Chapter 16

Maya's POV

After 3 hours of finding our dresses for the gala, we found the perfect one's. Considering the fact that the gala is tomorrow.

The day of the gala.

I signed as I continued to stare at the ceiling. I have one peaceful hour before Riley forces me to get dress for the gala.

I heard a knock on the door when I was to about close my eyes and fall asleep. 'Coming in' I said as sat up and leaned against the headboard, the door slowly opened to relieve a lucas with his hands on his pockets.

'Hi' he said grinning, 'hey huckleberry, what brings you here?' I asked him as I pat on the bed for him to sit down. 'Their playing some game down stairs and I was bored' he said taking a seat, 'weren't you into that kind of stuff before?' I asked him remembering the times when he was dating Riley. 'I was pretending for Riley' he said chuckling, 'so what were you doing before I came in?' He asked me.

'Thinking about life' I said sighing as I leaned my head on his shoulder. 'So you thought about college?' He asked the question I've been avoiding, 'I don't know Lucas' I said closing my eyes. 'Maya I'm pretty sure any college would offer you a full scholarship once they see your art' he said taking my head and giving me a gentle squeeze. 'Stop the serious talk huckleberry' I said not wanting the conversation to go any further. 'Fine but we will talk about this later' he said getting up. I frowned on disappointment.

'No stay' I whispered staring down at my hands. 'What you say?' Lucas asked turning back around. 'Stay' I repeated myself this time much louder. I heard him inhale deeply before sitting next to me again. I laid my head on his shoulder again before closing my eyes.

'Get up both of you' I heard Riley's voice as I got hit by a pillow, I blinked my eyes open to see lucas fast asleep beside me. Our legs tangled up, his hand wrapped around my waist tightly and my head using his chest as a pillow.

I quickly untangled myself from him, I felt myself frown from disappointment.

'So are you guys finally together?' Riley asked me making me look up at her. I forgot she was even here. 'What? No! We don't like each other like that' I whispered as I felt Lucas shift. 'Really? It seems to me like you two were married for 2 years when I saw you sleeping' she said smirking, 'Riley keep it down' I whisper-yelled at her as I felt heat raising from my cheeks. 'Okay peaches whatever you say' she said still smirking. 'Ok now get up we have 2 hours to get ready' Riley as she went over to Lucas who was still fast asleep.

I watched my best friend as she took the glass of water that was sitting on the night stand and she poured it all over her ex-boyfriend. I stared at them in shook before burst out laughing as Lucas jumped out of bed screaming.

'Riley what the fuck' he yelled whipping the water from his eyes. 'Sorry Lucas, I knew thats the only way I could wake you up' Riley said giggling. 'Oh you find this funny?' Lucas turned to me with slight smirk in his face, 'I found it hilarious' I said still laughing uncontrollably.

I immediately stopped as I felt Lucas picking me up bridle style, 'no put me down' I dramatically cried as he carried me to the bathroom. He put me down before going and I heard Riley scream. Lucas dragged Riley and placed her beside me before taking the shower head. 'Oh no I just got out of the shower' Riley yelled before Lucas attacked us with water, 'Lucas stop, I think I lost my contacts' I yelled through riley's screaming and Lucas' laughter. Lucas immediately stopped the water before coming to my side, 'maya I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to, let me see' he apologized, I opened my eyes slowly with a smirk on my face. 'Wait a minute-' I cut him off by grabbing his shoulders and turning him around to face Riley. 'Payback is a bitch huckleberry' I whispered in his ear before Riley turned on the water.

'What is going on here?'
