Andy Herrera sees Maya Bishop struggling all by herself,  refusing the help of everyone. As Maya's breakdowns become more public and severe, Andy becomes increasingly concerned about her best friend. Will Andy be able to reach Maya in time to help her?

Pre-3x05 and Maya being captain (ie. no Carina yet). As much as I love Maya and Carina together, I thought it'd be fun to explore a budding relationship between Maya and Andy, especially as they navigate the ups and downs of Maya's struggles. I've always thought they'd be cute together.

*TRIGGER WARNING *
Includes graphic descriptions of self harm and suicidal ideation.

Maya has spent five dreadful months in the psychiatric hospital recovering. One she finally is released she is forced back into her boring life. But will things really be so boring still when she meets 'bad-boy' Noah Dalton? He is annoying, rude and always around Maya for reasons she can't understand. Maya is brave, yet also afraid that her choices could lead her spiralling back into a bad place again. Will Noah be able to save her from herself? Or will he be the cause of her destruction? ---------------------------- ~Noah's pov~ 'These,' I slowly run my finger across one of her scars, 'are fucking beautiful.' Before she can object, I carry on. 'Maya you are beautiful beyond perfection. You are strong. You are brave. You are funny. You are sweet. You are incredible. Look at yourself,' I nod down towards the scars on her arm and she slowly glances down at them before meeting my gaze again, 'those scars are beautiful. Do you know why?' I ask her. She wipes a tear from her already tear-stricken face before she shakes her head. 'Because every time you decided to do that to yourself, you didn't go further, you didn't end your life. You decided to carry on living even when you thought you couldn't manage it. Those scars right there,' I gesture to them again, 'show the battles you won against yourself. They are your battle-scars and you shouldn't be ashamed of them. And you know what? I am so proud of you for making it to where you are today because you are a fighter and If I can see that, anyone can.'
