Here Comes a Thought

Love In What Way?

Here comes a thought
That might alarm you

Maya's POV

Riley Matthews. My best friend, my hope, my sunshine. I love her more than anything in this world. She's my extraordinary relationship. But, you already know that, don't you. The thing is, I don't care. I'm Maya Hart, rebellious, troublemaker, broken. I don't care if you see the way I look at her, the way I speak to her, how I fall apart at her touch. Wait, that sounds.... Am I in love with her?

What someone said

And how it harmed you

Riley's POV

My best friend is a blonde beauty. She has these golden locks that perfectly frame her face, and these beautiful blue eyes that light up when she paints. I'm just an average brunette with lanky limbs and a name like Riley Super Klutz. I already know how I feel about Maya. I'm in love with her. Don't think I haven't noticed the way my parents look at each other and the way I look at Maya is the same.

Anyone paying attention can see it. Unfortunately, they have. Lucas' girlfriend notices the way I look at Maya and I guess she never heard the phrase if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. I don't care, though. Something I picked up from Maya.

Something you did
That failed to be charming

Maya's POV

Here comes Smiley Riley. Oh boy, she looks especially beautiful in this moment. I walk towards her to close the distance and end up tripping over my own untied shoelace and looking like I just kissed the floor. I guess I picked up this clumsiness from Riley, ugh.

"Uh, Maya?" Riley asks as she chuckles. Cutely, I might add.

"Oh, hi Riles. I'm just here, uh, giving the floor some appreciation. Y'know, for always supporting us no matter what."

Wow, that is so lame.

"Aw, you've always been full of Hart." She chuckles again at her little pun.

We link arms and head to the bay window to have our daily make out session. Just kidding. I wish I wasn't though.

Things that you said are
Suddenly swarming

Riley's POV

Wow, Maya is so adorable. She reminds me of Pluto and I just want to kiss it on the face. Pluto even has a heart! Okay, I'll just say it. Here I go.

"Peaches?"

"Honey?" Maya replies in a sweet voice.

"Uh...."

Okay, her voice caught me off guard, but you would be too if you thought you heard an angel.

"Uh, Peaches, I-uh, what I wanted to say was, uh-"

She then grabbed by chin and lifted it up to eye level. Wait, that's my thing!

"Honey, whatever it is you want to say, just say it."

I didn't say it.

I was too surprised at the spark I felt when I realized I leaned in.

Maya's POV

WHAT, OH MY GOSH, RILEY MATTHEWS IS KISSING ME!

Her lips are so sweet, of course I kissed back.

She pulled away and started apologizing.

"Oh no, Maya I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to do that, I-"

"Riley, it's okay. I'm in love with you."

She smiled a smile so bright the sun couldn't compare. I became blinded by this angel in front of me.

"I'm in love with you too."

Take a moment to think of just
Flexibility, love, and trust
