MAYA POV

The rest of the morning went fine and uneventful. Lucas hadn’t left the room since he stormed off. Cameron was still sleeping so it was just me and Farkle in the house. But after a few hours I said I would leave to get changed out of my muddy clothes from the alley and I promised I would return back afterwards.

However, Farkle being the gentleman he is, offered me a ride home which I was very thankful for as I did not want to spend the rest of the day walking in the chilly British air.

As soon as I arrived home I barged in my home and raced up towards my room. I quickly grabbed the first set of clothes I could find before making my way to the shower.

After I was ready and happy with my appearance, I texted Farkle saying that I was ready so he could pick me up again. I made my way outside and sat on the edge of the pavement so that I could spot Farkle easily when he came.

I sighed as I waited. So much had happened in the last 2 days. First I meet a crazy but horny guy who just wants to get in my pants and then I see a guy almost die in the middle of the street. Just a regular start to a new life. I shake my head and chuckle to myself.

After a few minutes I started to get bored so I just started looking aimlessly around the area. As usual, it was deserted. It is such a lonely place to live in. I don’t know how people do it. I don’t even know how I am doing it…

As I move my gaze around, I spot light brown orbs already staring back into mine. My eyes widen as I instantly realise who those eyes belong to. Her dark brown hair flows down her shoulders in waves reaching her back. As usual, she had cakes of make up on but now she had tattoos and piercings just like everyone else in this place.

Missy.

A surge of anger washes through me as she continues to stare at me, still holding her never changing smirk. Why is she just staring at me? I hope she doesn’t recognise me or else my plans will go down the drain. I am snapped out of this “staring contest” with the sound of a rather loud horn. I jump, startled, as Farkle begins to pull up to my house. Missy's eyes widen in realisation that I know Farkle. Does she know Farkle too? Wait… Of course she does! She’s still friends with Lucas stupid!

I quickly hop into the passenger seat of the car, avoiding Missy's gaze completely. Once I got in the car, Farkle sped off not taking a single notice of Missy. Did he not see her or something? However I shake this off as we make our way back to the house.

As soon as we arrive at the gloomy house again, Farkle and I quickly make our way over to the front door. Each of us eager to know if Cameron is awake yet.

As soon as we open the door, we are both instantly engulfed in a pair of muscular arms. I inhale the familiar scent of the person.

“Thank you guys so much! Seriously, I would have died if it weren’t for either of you!” Cameron says in his ever entertaining accent. God I love his accent so frickin much! I give Cameron the biggest but genuine smile before turning to Farkle. He also has a similar expression, but his whole face drops again.

“Camer, we need to talk.” He says seriously. “In private if that’s ok Katy?” He asks turning to me.

“Yeah sure” I nod. I guess I don’t have much of a choice anyway! But I really want to know what is going on! Damn me and my curiosity!

They swiftly make their way upstairs making sure to lock the door behind them. What was so secret that they couldn’t say in front of me? As ever, my curiosity gets the best of me and I make my way over to the door that they had just gone through…

“Do you think this had something to do with the 294 house?” I hear Farkle distinctly ask. I hear a sound like a shuffle before I hear a reply again.

“I think so.” Cameron replies sadly. WTF is the 294 house?! I remember Cameron saying something about that back when he was giving directions to the alleyway to Cameron.

“Camer, you know that what happened at the 294 house was not your fault…” I hear Farkle say quietly almost as if he were trying to comfort Cameron. I hear footsteps then I hear a small creak indicating that someone had just sat on a bed.

“I know but it just hurts to know that we could have done something about it but instead we just sat and watched…” I barely manage to hear as Cameron was practically whispering now almost as if he were on the brink of tears. Whatever happened at this 294 house must have been something reaaallllllyyyy bad. I needed to find out more!

Just as I was about to listen to more of their conversation, I feel and hand clamp down on my left shoulder causing me to jump in shock. I quickly turn around to find that the owner of the hand is no other than Lucas Friar. He looks at me dead in the eyes while holding his smirk.

“Were you spying in on their conversation?” He asks amused while raising and eyebrow. I cross my arms and look at him also dead in the eyes.

“Nice to know that you are feeling calmer after your little tantrum earlier on.” I reply sarcastically also evading his question. This causes his mood to drop once again. I love pissing him off its so much fun!

“Stop fucking talk to me like I am a hormonal teenager.” He hisses at me. Well you certainly act like one that’s for sure! I roll my eyes at him angering him even more. He flinches a bit as if he were going to hit me again but he manages to control himself this time. He lets out a deep breath and I hold back the urge to chuckle at him so vulnerable like this.

“Now back to my earlier question, were you spying on them?” he asks seriously. How do these mood swings not confuse him? How do the boys put up with him? They must all be going insane by now!

“No I was not spying on them.” I lie looking him dead on in the eye.

“Don’t fucking lie to me I saw you with my own eyes!” Oops…

“So what if I was?” I shoot back at him.

“It’s a private conversation!” he replies frustrated.

Well it’s not like you’re going to answer any of my questions! He gives me a weird look and I cover my mouth in horror. Did I just say that out loud?!

“What type of questions?” he asks slowly. Ah well fuck it now! I might as well ask seeing as I’ve already fucked up.

“What is the big deal with this 294 house?”
