Joshaya V.S Lucaya

Chapter 12

Josh's POV

"Maya, it's been months!" I say, hoping that maybe this will be the time she listens to me. She shakes her head. So stubborn.

"No, Josh. I dont care how long it's been. I didn't do anything wrong, so I will NOT be the first one to try and mend this." She tells me, letting go of my hand and starting to walk faster. All of a sudden she turns back to snap at me again. "Besides, why does it even matter to you?!" She asks. Ouch that hurt.

"Why does it matter to me? Is that a real question, Maya, because it's a really shitty one. It matters to me..." I trail off, slipping my hand around her waist and pulling her close. I lower my voice, and with my lips almost on hers, I tell her. "... because you matter to me. Your happiness matters more than anything else in this world to me."

She smiles and she closes the already minuscule gap between us. The second I feel her lips on mine, a fire ignites inside me. A hunger. A burning desire to touch her in ways that would make a nun swear. Her tongue slides along my bottom lip and I grant her entrance. She tastes amazing. I feel her tugging at my hair. God that feels good.

Suddenly, I feel myself pull away. We're both breathing heavily, and she looks up at me with both innocence and desire ever present in her eyes.

"So... how 'bout that coffee?" She says making me chuckle. She joins in, letting me take her hand once again and we carry on down the street.

"So, since its summer, and we're both off school, I was thinking..." I smile as I trail off. She scoots closer to me, biting her lip. Oh my God does she ever drive me wild.

"You were thinking what, Boing?" She asks me, playfully using her old nickname for me.

"I was thinking that we should go camping for a week. You, me, nature..." I trail off again. I watch her as her eyes light up.

"A small tent in the middle of nowhere?" She smirks and moves her hand to my knee, slowly moving it up. I'm not going to lie, I don't want to stop her. I want to see how far she will go this time. But suddenly, as she has a hundred times before, she moves her hand off of me, and I feel my heart drop.

"Sounds perfect." I say, leaning down and giving her a soft, lingering peck on the cheek.
