MAYA POV

"I have."

I felt those butterflies again. He likes me. He actually likes me. I am speechless. I look over at the two girls in front of me and studied their reactions.

Jamie looked horrified but kept her cool. She quickly looked over at Missy in worry and I did so too.

The look on Missy's face was priceless. I had to stifle a very inappropriate giggle but I couldn't help but look at her in amusement causing her to send me daggers. She looked a mix between hurt, sadness, jealousy but most importantly, angry. She was pissed. But she snapped out of this and masked her emotions with an extremely fake smile surprising all of us. I honestly thought she was going to go ballistic and throw a tantrum or something and I'm guessing the others did too.

"Well aren't you two the happy couple? Well don't let us intrude. Come on Jamie." She says faking a sweet tone while she tugs on her worried friend's hand. They eventually leave the house leaving Lucas and I alone again.

Not a second had passed until I heard the screaming I was waiting for. I heard a number of profanities being shouted but they were muffled.

Yep. Missy has serious anger issues.

I wince when I heard something shattering loudly outside. Man she was pissed....

I look over at Lucas and he looks down on me with a sympathetic look plastered on his face.

"I'm sorry about Missy. She'll cool down....Eventually." He says sadly while reaching out his hand and tucking a loose strand of my hair behind my ear. Why was he being so sweet goddamn?!

I gulp trying to rid of these damn butterflies. I so did not need this right now.

"It's ok." I send him a small smile leaning in to his touch. I couldn't resist ok?! He looks deeply into my eyes.

"I meant what I said you know." He says seriously. I sigh.

"Then why did you abandon me after that night?" I ask sadly. He looks at me and guilt flashes through his eyes.

"I don't know....I guess I was scared." He says then pulls a weird face to which I raise an eyebrow at.

"It's just that you wouldn't expect a gang leader like me to say anything like this." He explains before chuckling. I smile at him in understanding.

"Just...Don't leave me again." I say worriedly. I don't actually know if I was faking it that time. It came out so real. Oh dear.....

"I wouldn't dream of it." He promises before he grasps my cheek with the palm of his hand. He slowly leans down and places his lips onto mine. This kiss wasn't lustful or passionate like the others. It was sweet and almost....loving?

Ok wtf is up with all of his sweetness? Something's not right but I play along anyway.

Why is he so confusing?

LUCAS POV

I did it. I told her I liked her and she believed me. I am one step closer to figuring out who this girl is. I am 100% sure that I have seen her somewhere before especially since I saw those scars….

Then why do I feel so fucking guilty about it? She’s been lying to me. I know she has and yet I feel guilty and it’s pissing me off. It’s like those words came out of my mouth naturally.

Do I like her? Of course not! Nope. No. And No.

Yeah you do dickhead.

Fuck. I need to get out of here.
