Thanks for reading this chapter and I hope you enjoy it! BTW, I know the pictures can be a little blurry so sorry about that. Sometimes I use my tablet to write these chapters, so like do not judge me.

Maya
I sat on my bed trying to text Riley, but no answer.

You hurt her, Maya.

She will never talk to you again.

Why did you kiss him?

You ruined your friendship.

All the voices in my head weren't even helping the situation.

I did want to kiss Lucas, but not in that way.

My phone was buzzing like crazy and I looked at it.

Five new messages:
7: 12 - Lucas - i am so sorry about that kiss
7:19 - Lucas - please answer me
7:21 - Lucas - is riley okay?
7:22 - Lucas - i know that i probably ruined everything, but please answer
8:57 - Lucas - riley is mad

I picked up my phone thinking of whether or not to respond to Lucas.

I felt horrible because Riley was mad at me since I kissed her crush, but I really had to respond.

Maya: Tell Riley that I'm sorry

I turned my phone off and sighed in frustration.

I picked up my sketchbook and started drawing something.

..............
The next day...
I walked inside of school to see Riley walking over to me.

"Look, I'm sorry. Can we be friends again?" I asked.

"Totally! Now I was thinking that we could go to the ice cream parlor today, is that okay?"

"Sure."

Riley was taking this really well and honestly I can't believe that she is.

Lucas walked up to us.

He looked at me as we made eye contact.

We just stood there looking at each other until Riley spoke up.

"Lucas, we're going to the? ice cream parlor later. Want to come?"

"I don't----" Lucas got cut off by a smirking Riley.

"Awesome, see you at 5!"

Riley grabbed me by the arm as she walked off.

Lucas waved goodbye to us.

I got out of the arm hold Riley had me in.

"Riley, what was that about?" I asked her.

"I was just inviting Lucas, you know. My crush."

The school bell rang and we walked into Math class.

Riley

Maya had no idea about anything I was doing, I was going to break her heart like she broke mine.

I can tell Lucas likes me and not troubled Maya.

Me and Maya walked out of Math class as she was telling me about how her rat isn't bonding with her anymore.

"So, my rat keeps jumping through its hole whenever I tell it about how boring that my neighbor is."

I made a fake laugh as we walked to our lockers.

As I looked around, I saw Lucas slipping something into a locker.

Wait is that Maya's?

Maya walked over to her locker and opened it, the note fell out of the locker.

She picked it up and read some of it.

Maya folded it up and put it into her pocket.

"What was that?" I asked.

"Just some note from a teacher. I'll see you later, I have to go to History." Maya said.

"Oh I'm in history, but you knew that right?"

Maya gulped and nodded her head.

She grabbed her books and walked to History class.

I got mine and walked to History class.

She doesn't even suspect a thing.

My plan will work and Lucas will like me.
