secondary crush

Chapter 13

Liams POV//

I'll kill her, Eleanor that is. How do girls always know when something's up! I regret ever having one in the group, why couldn't damn Louis figure out his sexuality sooner. Kidding. But I am slightly pissed that she's decided to hang out with Maya. I need to find a way of getting her over to me, so Maya doesn't see, but she's already ordering her food, and, leading Maya towards our table! For gods sake.

I pay for my pizza and make my way over to the table, Zayn, Niall and Ashton following. Coincidentally I end up sitting next to Maya, earning a small wink from Eleanor, which thankfully goes unnoticed by everyone else. Apart from Zayn, who looks at me then back at her, finally settling his gaze on Eleanor and giving her one of his glares, god if looks could kill, she'd be dead.

Eleanor and Louis are deep in a whisper conversation about something, Niall and Ashton are bickering about something else, and Zayn is moodily staring into space, so I direct my focus to the only over occupant at our table, take a deep breath, and start a conversation.
"Hey Maya" I say, and she smiles at me
"Hi Liam" she replies. "How's your day been?"
"It's been okay, I had an exam first period though and it was torture, how about yours?" I ask in return.
"Mines been okay too I guess, I had an exam too but I didn't find it that bad, hey we have english next, do you wanna sit with me? It's just I have no one else to sit with since I don't really know anyone yet, I know that your friends, Louis and Harry? Are in our class too so it's okay if you wanna sit with them instead-"
She's starting to ramble and I cut her off by laughing, she looks a little shocked, then hurt so I quickly say
"Of course I'll sit with you! You can sit at mine, Lou and Harry's desk, Louis is a nightmare when you're trying to concentrate though, just a warning" she laughs and thanks me. I think we're gonna be friends.
