Riley Matthews shut her locker with a loud bang she turned around smoothing out her floral print skirt in the process, she looked up to meet the electric blue eyes of her best friend Maya Hart.
"Good morning honey" Maya said while smiling at her as she purposely opened her locker then slammed it again smiling in satisfaction as the teacher in the other room let out a yelp as they came out covered in dust. Riley gave a gentle smile as the loud heartfelt laugh of her best friend filled the halls Riley bit and slightly chewed on her bottom lip unsure is she should tell Maya what was on her mind.
Maya tilted her head and stared up at Riley "Something on your mind honey?" Riley exhaled and sat down in front of her locker Maya joined her on the floor seconds later leaning back with her head in the crook of her best friends neck.
"I just....." Riley started, she turned to her best friend brown eyes meeting electric blue "Feelings are confusing have they always been like that?" Maya played with a loose thread on her jacket she had long since decided since she was a little girl it was better and less painful not to feel anything at all.
"I don't know honey I may not understand what you're feeling but I'll always do my best to stand by your side" Maya gave a slight smile in hope to cheer up her normally bubbly and cheerful best friend, "Thank you Maya" suddenly the sharp piercing sound of the school bell rang they both grabbed their backpacks and headed into their history class. Riley stared at the desk behind her the brown haired blue eyed genius was late which he never was before she could ponder it further said boy came through the door disheveled and sweaty with an object in his hand he gave a quick apology to Mr. Matthews and as he passed placed the object on Riley's desk.
Riley's attention wasn't on the awareness that he now had sat behind her or Maya's questioning gaze or even the fact that her father had begun the long awaited topic of Belgium 1831 no it was on the extra thick strawberry banana smoothie with a spoon.
It was just the way she liked it...
She then whispered the only three words that came to mind: "you get me"
