Maya's Hart

Chapter 32

Maya's POV:

It's been weeks since I started living with Shawn. It was the day before Christmas Eve. Every Christmas I'd usually be laying in my bed, feeling jealous over all the gifts everyone was getting, and not going over the Matthews because their family itself would make me jealous. But this year was different, because I had an actual dad to spend it with.

Shawn came home that day, carrying a huge ass tree and a bag of ornaments. He also bought a bag of wrapping paper and Christmas decorations.

"Alright now, are you gonna help me decorate or what?" He asks with a smile.

"Sure."

"Alright, you hang the ornaments on the tree and I'll take care of everything else."

And so with that, I started ornamenting the tree and Shawn was out decorating the front porch.
----

"Wait so you're 13 right?"

"Yeah."

"Oh no." Shawn looked like he was going to faint.

"What?"

"You're going to be dealing with girl stuff real soon you know."

"I know."

"I don't know a lot about girl stuff." We both laugh.

"Don't worry, I'll go to Topanga for this kind of stuff you big baby!" I playfully punched his arm. He started tickling me, and I fell on the floor laughing.

Riley's POV:

I was laying on my bed, writing out my wish list. I had my laptop on, searching through specific things I might find interesting. I also wrote down some things I might like to buy for Maya and my friends.

Maya suddenly knocked on my window.

"It's open!" I shout. She opens up the window, crawls in, and shuts it. She lays down besides me, smiling like crazy. "Ooo Maya you're smiling! What for?"

"Shawn and I had a lot of fun. We decorated our Christmas tree and the whole house. Then we had a funny little talk and after that he had to leave to buy gifts."

"So how does it feel to finally have a parent?" I ask, smiling too.

"It's one of the most wonderful things ever! That, and having such an amazing girlfriend!" She winks.

"Just for that you get an extra gift!" I write down something on my paper.

"Lemme see!" She tries grabbing my paper.

"Not so fast! It's a secret!" I pull the paper away from her and got off my bed. "If you want it you gotta catch it!"
I raise the paper as high as I could. Maya jumps up and down, trying to grab it.

"Shorty!" I laugh as she was still jumping.

"Oh yeah?" She goes across the room, grabs a water bottle, and pokes the cap with something. Then, she pointed the bottle at me and squirted me with water.

"Hey! You cheater!" I say, trying to block the water from getting at my face. Maya then grabs the paper from my hand. She opens it.

"A big kiss, huh." She read. "Why don't you come right here and give me an early Christmas present?" Maya smirks. And with that, we hoped on the bed and made out.
