Forever & Always

Goodbye

Emily's POV

Saying goodbye is hard, but I don't know if I want to say goodbye, but I guess that's what I have to do.

I'm at the airport with the girls and Maya. I didn't want to tell Alison because I just didn't. No reason at all. I just didn't want her to know about Maya.

"Well this is me." Maya said looking back at me. "This is where I go off."

I was about to cry, but I was holding it in. "Take care." Maya looked into my eyes, and it felt like she was about to kiss me, but she didn't. So I pulled in closer and gave her a quick kiss on the lips. As soon as it was over, my eyes widened and I was still.

The girls looked at me as if I was naked. "Ouuuu. Okay Emily." Hanna was smirking at me. I gave her a dirty look.

"Emily?"

That sounded like Alison's voice coming from the back. I turned back, and it was her! She was wearing a light blue blazer and a yellow scarf. Alison looked amazing. "Alison? What are you doing here?" I asked her. "I was trying to call you, but no answer so I asked Hanna where you were, and she said you guys will be at the airport? Why, are you leaving?"

"Um, no. My friend, Maya is." Maya waved at Ali, and smiled.

"Maya? That name rings a bell.." Alison looked disappointed and a little aggressive as she gazed at Maya.

"Yeah, and so does Alison. You know, Emily once had a friend named Alison. Yeah and she was dead." Maya looked irritated, so I had to cut in and say something to break off their heated conversation. "Have a safe flight, Maya." I gestured for us to turn around and leave. The girls walked away and got Spencer's car, while me and Ali waited at the entrance.

"So that's Maya..." I could tell that Alison was upset.

"Yeah." I replied.

There was a long silent moment, until the girls arrived with Spencer's car. We got in and Spence drove us to her house. It was a long car ride, and I was in the middle of Hanna and Alison in the backseat. Alison's head was on my shoulder, she was fast asleep.

Alison's POV

I wasn't really sleeping, I was just closing my eyes, thinking about what had happened. How could Emily not tell me that Maya was back? And if she thought I didn't see the kiss, she thought wrong. I saw what she did. She kissed her! And I was furious, but I didn't want to show my anger. I admit, I was a little jealous, and the same time relieved because I know that Maya left for California. I just really had to tell Emily my real feelings for her.
