“Mason! Come on let’s get going, or we’re going to be late!” I stated as I watched Mason say his goodbyes to his friends.

“It’s only home, nothings waiting for us,” Mason laughed as he made his way to me.

As always we would walk to the bus stop together Mason lived closer to had to get off earlier, but it was still fun. I was so into my thoughts I didn’t realise Mason had been calling me.

“Maya… Maya... MAYA!” Mason shouted gently pushing me back and forth, I looked up at him and smiled, “Maya, you really have to listen more,” He stated looking forwards.

“Sorry, go on, what did you want to say?” I asked a bit curious.

“Can we walk home?” Mason said rubbing the back of his head as he focused his eyes forwards upon the ever growing clouds. Now I was quite anxious, he only ever wanted to walk when he had something on his mind or when he was down.

I sighed and smiled, “sure thing.”

We walked in utter silence, I, as usual, would look down, while Mason would walk with pride but not this time, today he wasn’t looking down, but he seemed as if he was cautious about everything around him. As if he was properly taking in to detail of what he saw. I looked and the grey clouds and contemplated on whether to ask him what was wrong or not.

I took a deep breathe “Is it weird?” I heard Mason say in a small voice.

I looked at him “Is what weird?”

“The fact that I asked you to walk with me?”

“Mason why would it be weird?” I said in amusement.

He shrugged, and walked on. We later came to a wall which we usually stopped at when we would walk, so he could tell me what was on his mind. At this point he was a bit ahead of me. With his back faced towards me he stopped. I could see him take a deep breath as he turned to me looking worried.

“Maya,” He began.

I looked down at my converses saying “Yes.”

He sighed and looked up, “Maya I can’t talk to you when you look down.”

I hated that, when people would say things about me looking down, they usually said I was emo, or a goth, but no, sure I wasn’t your everyday ‘happy go lucky’ girl, but I had stuff in my life, and would sort them out by keeping them bottled up. So what?

“Maya you have a face that you need to show to the world,” I heard Mason smile.

I blushed, was that supposed to mean a good thing or a bad thing? I slowly lifted up my head to find Mason a lot closer then it seemed. I only realised how tall and handsome he was, I was only up to his shoulder, he had dark brown hair, not too dark, kind of like chocolate? He had soft fare skin, and hazel eyes, which you could see green in. I held my breath as I stared into his eyes.

“Maya,” he said taking a long pause “I need to tell you something.”

I remain still and nod

“I’ve wanted to say his for a long time… I have always-” Mason looked up as a raindrop trickled down the side of his cheek, ignoring it he said “I have always lik-” suddenly rain came crashing down. We looked at each other for a mid-second, and ran as I pulled him towards the bus stop near his house. Our clothes were a bit damp
