Maya Meets Honesty

To: Josh Matthews

You literally wouldn't believe my luck right now.

From: Josh Matthews
Why? What happened?

To: Josh Matthews
*heavy eye roll* I'll just have to show you when I get there. Just be prepared, there's a lot of blood and quite a bit of missing skin.

Almost as soon Maya hit send her phone began ringing. "Hello?" She sighed.

"What happened?" Josh said immediately.

"Well hi to you too."

"Yeah, hi. What happened? Why are you bleeding?"

"I totally bit it..." Maya said with an eye roll.

"What?"

"I was just walking to my car, minding my own business and I don't know... missed the curb or something... anyway, you can practically see the bone on both of my kneecaps."

"What?!" Josh exclaimed. "Where are you?"

Maya sighed, "I'm turning into the parking lot now. Where are you?"

"I see your car, pull in to the left." Josh said assertively.

Maya pulled her brows together, "I don't see you..."

"Keep coming down, just park over to your left."

Maya finally saw Josh, he was standing outside of his car, leaning against back of it, foot propped up on the bumper. Maya's heart skipped a beat seeing Josh in a pair of slacks, a button down with a tie and a suit jacket hanging behind him on his finger. God he's gorgeous. Maya pulled into an empty spot, putting her car in park and immediately rolling her passenger window down.

Without missing a beat, Josh's hands were on Maya's window, his head hunched down to where he was looking at the blonde girl he couldn't stay away from. She was wearing a beautiful wrap dress, her hair curled delicately and pulled to one side. God she's gorgeous. "Maya,"

"Josh," Maya said looking up at him through her thick, dark, lashes. She nodded in, signaling to him he could get in the car.

Josh quickly joined Maya in her car, his eyes immediately taking in her look once again. "Let me see," he requested.

"Ugh," Maya sighed as she rolled her eyes. She pulled her seat back, wincing as she turned toward Josh. She wasn't kidding, it looked as if Maya had torn three layers of skin off both of her knees. There was blood running down her pale legs, and there was still bits of gravel buried in the open flesh.

"Maya," Josh practically gasped. "Jesus..."

"Yeah... i tried to clean them up, but they hurt so bad." Maya said looking down at her own legs.

"I bet... God. Do you have any napkins or wipes or anything in here?"

Maya shrugged, "No. I used what I had... I figured I'd get more inside."

"Yeah... let me see if I have anything," Josh said and quickly stepped out of Maya's car.

Maya sighed.

Moments later, Josh was opening Maya's driver-side door, a small first-aid kit in hand.

"Of course you have a first-aid kit," Maya teased raising her eyebrow.

Josh shook his head, his focus on Maya's torn up knees. "This is going to hurt," He whispered, placing an alcohol pad on Maya's right knee, the one that was the least injured.
