Walking through the storm || Lucaya

Chapter 8

Lucas pov

As soon as Maya left i grabbed my keys and went to Marley's. She only had to go back for a year, so i knew she'd be home. I knocked her door, very anxious to get this over with.

"Lucas? What are you doing here?"

"Look i need to know if that kid was mine. It's tearing my family apart."

"Well i kinda can't do that now. The kid is dead. I can't give you a DNA test."

"When was the due date?"

"December 21."

i did the math in my head. So if Presley was born around october it was like a month after maya and i. Mine would be 2 weeks longer than her exes, so it wasn't my kid. i looked at her and she shook her head.

"dont tell me who's it is. I don't wanna know remember?"

i nodded and walked to my car zooming home. I pull up and maya's car is in the drive way.

I see Presley asleep on the couch and maya coming down naked, rubbing her eyes. My eyes widened.

"Take a picture it will last longer."

"wha-oh sorry. You know that isn't fair."

"What isn't."

" you can't just walk down here like that, and expect me not to drool over you."

"Well sucks for you Huckleberry cause this is how i sleep, and technically this is my house. So get over yourself."

"Two can play this game."

"There isn't any game. Even if there was, there is no doubt i would win, because im not even attracted to you!"

"ouch."

"what did you expect lucas?"

"so your telling me you feel nothing for me anymore?"

"That is exactly what i am saying."

"your lying. Maya you know we have something we will always have something."

"Lucas i can kiss you right now and feel absolutely nothing."

"yes you would."

"No i wouldn't! You want me to prove to you that i wouldn't? Here i will prove it."

she came up to me and gave me a rough kiss. It felt like everything in me was fixed. she pulled away quickly as if it was just normal.

"See i told you nothing. Not even a single part of me wanted to linger onto your lips a little longer."

That was probably the most heartbreaking thing i ever heard. 

"so we are really done? I guess there isn't even a point in telling you then."

"telling me what?"

"Nothing. There's nothing, there is no point. If this is how it's ending the i think we should see other people."

"i agree. i actually have a date tonight."

i nodded and picked up Presley. I put him in his bed and went my room silently crying.

Maya pov

I know its been only a month, but a guy gave me his number and he is really cute. I told him i'd think about it due to the circumstances. Now that we both agreed, can accept that offer and not feel guilty about it. plus that guy was extremely hot.

His name is Zack and he was really sweet. Actually if i want to be on time i better get ready.

This was my outfit. I left my hair down in its natural waves and waited for zack to come. I heard a knock and opened the door to find Zack in a leather jacket and converse. He looked great.

"Wow maya, I don't think i have seen anything more beautiful."

"i'm dressed pretty casual,"

"I'm pretty sure you'd look beautiful in stain covered sweatshirt."

"she does."

i turned around to find lucas with presley in his arms.

"you must be Presley's father. Nice to meet you I'm zack."

"you too, how did you know who i am?"

"we talked a lot. I was actually in a similar situation as you. My girlfriend from high school, went to a different college. Back then i was a Fuckboy and i was willing i change for her. I told her i'd wait. Turns out i waited for nothing, and longer than i had to. When i went to surprise her, i saw her with some guy. I wasn't mad, but i did go up to her and let her know i waited. It felt good to wait."

my eyes were a little watered. He is definitely someone i need in my life. i looked at him and smiled.

"Well aren't we just a couple of broken people."

"yeah. Well if we want to get to the restaurant on time we better get going."

"restaurant?"

"I thought it might be something you wanted to do, unless you want to do something else."

"well before you came my night was going to consist of old classic movies, and takeout."

"what classics do you like?"

"Any elvis movie"

"oh really? i love jailhouse rock."

"Wanna come watch it? i have it in my room."

"sounds great! Lucas are you okay with that?"

"It's my house, we can do whatever we want come on!"

we went to the room and watched the movie. Somewhere towards the middle Zack and i started making out. It was getting very intense until a certain Huckelberry walked in. we quickly pulled apart and looked at lucas.

"Oh sorry my bad-its just- used to this room-well-uh goodnight."

THAT WAS AWKWARD.

I looked at zack.

"I think i should get going for tonight. I'll call you tomorrow."

"Ok."

He gave me one last kiss and i walked him out. Something didn't feel right about that kiss. It wasn't lucas, but i didn't feel anything when we kissed either. I walked back upstairs and heard sobs. I opened lucas' door to find him crying in his pillow. I felt bad, but im pretty sure there was nothing i could do i got undressed and climbed into bed. I couldn't fall asleep. I walked to lucas' room. He was watching tv. he turned around to look at me, then back to the tv.

"hey"

"hey"

"You need something?"

"i cant fall asleep."

"Well i don't know how i can help you."

"Lucas before you were my fiancee you were my bestfriend. You have slept with me before, in both ways."

"fine."

i took his hand and we walked to my room. we laid under the covers and cuddled. i turned around and i was centimeters from lucas' face and we kissed. Passionatley, softly, it was pure bliss. 

"lucas."

"yeah?"

"im feeling things."

"I never stopped feeling things."
