Maya's Hart

Chapter 17

Maya's POV:

I waved as Riley walked out of her apartment with Lucas. My blood boiled as he held her hand. I closed the door and plopped on the Matthews couch.

"Why didn't you tell me about this before? I don't want boys! Boys. No," Mr. Matthews snapped at Topanga.

"She's growing up, they left, what are you going to do about it? Plus we've still got Auggie, and we can always have some more," Topanga says.

"You're kidding right? You're not pregnant are you because-?"

"Of course I'm not pregnant!" Topanga laughs. I switch the TV on as soon as they stopped their little interesting talk.

"Maya, not that we don't like you here or anything, but what are you still doing here? You do know that Riley left, right?" Mr. Matthews asks.

"Yeah I know, I just wanted to chill here until Riley comes back," There was no way I was going back to my house.

"What about your house? I heard your dad came back, don't you wanna spend some time with him?" Topanga asks curiously.

"Nah I'm good,"

"Maya I've noticed you haven't been wanting to go to your house lately. Everything ok between you and your dad?"

"Geez, stop asking me all these questions, my show is on!" I say, pointing to the TV.

Riley's POV:

My date with Lucas was awkward and cute. We barely knew what to talk about and we kept giggling. After 30 minutes, we left and he offered to walk me back to my apartment.

"You're beautiful," Lucas smiles.

"Thanks, you're pretty good looking yourself," whoops. That's not exactly how I wanted that to come out. We both blushed and paused for a second. He put his hands around my waist, we started to lean into each other, and we kissed.

Maya's POV:

I finally left the Matthews apartment after so much talking, questions, and lecturing. I had to go home before my dad got suspicious and angry.

I opened the front door slowly. There was my dad, sitting back on the couch, sipping on his beer. Did he ever do anything else?

"And where have you been?" He asks.

"I stayed after school to-"

"DON'T LIE DUMBASS I SAW YOU WITH THE BRUNETTE. I TOLD YOU I DIDNT WANT YOU HANGING OUT WITH HER!"

"You can't just make me throw away 8 years of friendship,"

"Oh yeah? Watch me!" He got off the couch and pushed my head against the wall. He kept banging my head against the wall repeatedly. It hurt like shit and I got extremely dizzy. My vision was very blurry and I felt light headed. He then punched me straight in the nose. I heard something crack and my nose bled.

I got up and struggled to open the front door. He threw an empty beer bottle at my back as I finally opened the door. I ran out. My whole body ached as I ran up the street. I was willing to go anywhere but my own house. I ran to the Matthews house with no thought on what they were going to do when they saw me.

I buzzed and they buzzed me in. I ran up to their apartment, I knocked, and collapsed on their door step.

"MAYA!?" Was the last thing I heard before I fainted.
