Nothing Special

Mia Maya

The next few days of school went by fast... by Friday everyone was talking about me and Jackson. I don't know why everyone thinks we are together. We don't hold hands, we don't kiss,and we don't do anything couple like. I don't understand it but I guess all we can do is ignore it...anyway after 6th period Maya and I went to our lockers. Of course Jackson met us there.

"Hey I gotta go grab my long board out the office, I'll be right back, see ya in a min Lana." He said smiling and making his way to the office.

Maya turned to me and raised and eyebrow,"Lana? Really? I swear you two are hiding something!"

"We are just friends!!!" I said crossing my arms.

In response she crossed her arms too teased me ,"Yea, friends with benefits like spending the night at his house and riding home with him?" She laughed.

"Hey he pulled me into all that!" I poured.

"EXACTLY!! He likes you!" She reasoned."I'll make you a bet if he doesn't ask you out by December I'll kiss Lucas!"

"Ha your on! But remember we you lose I'm making you do it!" I said confidently.

As soon as we finished our little bet. Jackson came back with his long board.

"Hey you ready to go?" He asked.

I nodded and we all made our way to the entrance of the school and started making our way home. Since it was Friday my mom and step dad works late so they let us stay with a friend. I spend the night with Maya most of the time so that's what we were doing today.

Once we reached our street Maya got on her phone and started texting Emily to tell her we were almost there. "Emily says I have to go somewhere real quick and that our mom says you can come over when we get back,we are quickly going to the store we will be right back."Maya said walking towards the direction of her house and getting in the car.

Before I have time to get past Jackson's house he stops me and asks,"hey you wanna hangout until she gets back?"

I shrug "sure"

We head inside his house to see Lucas getting out a coke from the fridge. He closes it and leans against it and opens the Coke.

"Sup" Lucas says nodding his head towards me.

I wave and smile. He smiles back...but even thou his smile was there...his eyes were sad...I could tell something was wrong. The smile was fake...he didn't hate me...I knew he didn't...it was a "help me I'm dying inside" smile. A smile you give someone when you had just spent 3 hours crying and tried to play it off like you hadn't. When you tried and played it off like you were happy. At this moment I was looking at the ground because I hate seeing people hurt. I had only been looking down for like 5 seconds but I felt weird so I forced my head back up and looked at Jackson... he was staring at Lucas in concern. I looked over to Lucas to see his eyes filling with water and not to long after a single tear made its way down his face. The tear reached his chin and drop off and hit the ground. As the sound of the tear hit the ground Lucas wiped his face and turned around and embarrassment and headed to his room. Everything seemed to be in slow motion. It was like time had slowed down just for this moment. It ended quickly as Jackson ran in the direction of his broken brother. I ran in the direction of them when someone's hold had stopped me. I turned around to see Aaron.

"Just let them be for a while... Lucas needs it." He said, sympathy in his voice.

I was going to tell him to let go but I choked it back. I knew he was worried for Lucas. It was his cousin... I had no right to tell him to let me go... He was doing it for Lucas.

My phone went off and I looked down at it to see a text from Maya.

Where are you? We are home...

I looked at Aaron "I have to go. Maya is  home and I have to go to her house."

"Who is Maya?" Aaron asked.

"My friend she lives right across the street from me."

"I'll walk you." Aaron spoke. I knew he wasn't going to give up until I let him so I nodded.

We walked over to Maya's house. Maya was outside in the driveway on her phone. I walked up to her to which Aaron followed.

She looked at him and said " who's he?"

"That's Aaron" I said looking over to him.

"Hi Mia." He said trying his best to remember her name but of course he failed.

"It's Maya!" She replied.

"Well, I'm gonna call you Mia Maya." Aaron replied a smirk on his face.

Maya crossed her arms and rolled her eyes. "Fine." She dreaded out.

"Bye Alana."he looked over at me and said. "bye, Mia Maya." He said in a fake flirty voice.

To this she rolled her eyes and waved "Tata"

After he had left the yard and made it back to Jackson's house Maya turned to me.

"Why? Just ,why?" She rolled her eyes.

"Don't be salty, Mia Maya" I laughed out.

She crossed her arms and rolled her eyes.

"Chill I was kidding. You and your sister can never take a joke." I laughed out once again.

"Ha ha, very funny." She said in a fake enthusiastic voice. "Better?"

To this and laughed and we headed inside.

Emily was on her phone on Snapchat. She was a seventh grader in middle school, she had just broken up with her old boyfriend, Trevor, because he was cheating on her with her best friend from school in Niceville. So, she was ranting to all her old friends about how he was a jerk and she hated him.

She looked over at me and immediately stopped. She got up and hugged me. She smiled and put her phone down. Emily was is the girl you talk to boys about. The girl you would talk about your crush to. She wouldn't be the girl that you would come to with secrets. Unless it was your crush that's the only secret you would tell. Maya was a girl that you could come to with any secret. Even if I was your deepest darkest secret she would keep it. Don't give me wrong both girls I loved with all my heart. It's just that Maya was more trustworthy but they were both my best friends. They were my sisters. I loved them with all my heart and now that they were with me everyday of the week I was happier ,I felt safer, I felt more protected.
