Riley's POV:
Maya slept, however, I couldn't.
"Why? Why would she do this to me? Why would she kiss someone else? Why? I thought she loved me." I cried into my pillow. My heart ached. I haven't ever had Maya betray me like that.
"I-I'm sorry..." She said as she hugged me.
"I thought you were sleeping!" I whisper loudly.
"Yeah... Sorry!" She half smiles.
"Sorry doesn't cover it, you kissed someone other than me!" I cry.
"I'm sorry he grabbed my face and kissed me."
"And you kept going and made out!"
She tried hugging me again.
"No! Just leave me alone. I'm going to sleep in the living room." I grab my pillow and another blanket.
"Riley-"
"Don't talk to me either."
"You made us promise each other that we'd still remain friends no matter what!"
"I'm still your friend... I'm just so disappointed in you." I walk out of the room and crash on the couch. I closed my eyes tightly.

Maya's POV:
I screwed up. I screwed up real bad. I had to talk to Riley. I just had to give her time to calm down first. I waited until the next day in the afternoon to talk to her. I walked into her room. She was sitting near her window, looking outside.
"Riley?" I ask, slowly knocking on her door.
"Come in." She said, still looking outside.
"You ok?" I sit next to her.
"I'm fine."
"Good."
"Why'd you kiss him?" She asked.
"I told you, he grabbed my face and kissed me. I guess... I kept going because I got caught up in the moment. I swear though, it meant nothing!"
"Tell me Maya, how can a kiss mean nothing? See if you actually tried to stop it, it would be a completely different story."
"I mean it. It wasn't like a kiss from you, it was just a stupid kiss!"
"Maya you obviously don't take our relationship seriously, and I don't like that. Not at all. I don't think we can go out anymore. I'm not at all saying that we should stop being friends. I still want to be your friend, I just think we need a little time apart."
"NO! RILEY I'M SO DAMN SORRY JUST PLEASE DON'T DO THIS! I'M SORRY!" I cry out.
"Sorry, but it's for the best." She hugged me and kissed my cheek. This was all just great. My life was falling apart again. She walked out as I sat there, tears strolling down my face.
I had to get out. I opened the window and climbed down the fire escape.
