Maya's P.O.V.
I had just come back from work. It was half three in the afternoon.
I was very worried about meeting Alice at six, it was all I could think about.
I was glad that I never talked to Makayla too much, if I did, I could have been in a lot of danger.
Holly was at her mums house and I was sat with Jackson in the living room.
"So, Maya," he had a cheeky grin on his face.
"What?" I slowly said, unsure of what he was going to say next.
"Hudson, huh?" he nudged my shoulder.
Oh god.
"What about him?" I tried to act clueless. He raised his eyebrows, running his hand through his hair, his green eyes full of mischief.
"Don't try to act dumb, Maya. I know you better than that."
"There's nothing going on between us," I shrugged.
"Okay," he lifted his hands in surrender. "But just so you know, you're in denial."
"Whatever," I didn't have the energy to defend myself.
"Remember the first day you came here?" he asked after a while. I turned to look at him. His eyes were no longer playful, he looked serious.
"You looked lost, empty, whatever you want to call it," I nodded my head, wondering where this conversation was going.
"You don't look like that anymore."
"What do you mean?" I didn't get his point.
"There's not much more to it," he carried on. "I'm just saying you look happier."
"Your smile's brighter, you're more active. I've never seen you like this before."
When I thought about it, he was right.
