Author's note: I'm bored and wanted to make this for ya'll. Orginally this idea was for Faya (Farkle and Maya) but now that I'm all for Lucaya, it's well them now. I started shipping Lucaya second season and thought of this during the first. Here's my one-shot, "Always" I don't own GMW
Maya's POV
I did not do this because I'm a bad mother. I did not do this because I didn't want him. I did not do this because I hate him.
I did this for the exact opposite of those reasons.
I gave my son to Lucas because I'm a good mother. I gave my son to Lucas because I want him. I gave my son to Lucas because I love him.
I gave Dylan Michael Friar to Lucas because I couldn't give Dylan the life that he deserved.
Let me explain myself.
7 Years Ago February 2018 Maya's POV
"Lucas, can I talk to you for a second?" I say with more fear in my life than ever. Millions of butterflies fly around in my stomach. I cannot believe this happened to me.
"Yeah, sure." Lucas says.
I bring him into Riley's bedroom. We're all hanging out at the Matthews' and I thought this is the perfect time. I just need to get it off my chest.
"Is everything okay, Maya?" Lucas is such a sweetheart. What did I do to ever deserve him?
"Lucas, I'm going to give you something. Don't freak out." I hand Lucas my positive pregnancy tests.
"Oh, Maya." Lucas pulls me in for a hug. I cry into his chest, "Maya, look at me. We'll get through this together. Okay?"
I nod.
Did I mention we're 16?
May 2018 Maya's POV
Me and Lucas don't really have a plan yet. However, we do know that we are keeping it. Speaking of it, we're finding out what it, is. I'm really hoping it's a girl. And Lucas thinks it's a girl too. As long as it's happy and healthy. That's all that matters.
I invited Riley, mom, Farkle, and Lucas's older sister, Nicole. Me and Nicole have gotten really close. She's 22 and has a 2 year old daughter of her own. Her name is, Abigail Grace. She's beautiful. The father died a month before Abby was born. Nicole was devastated. He wanted their daughter to be named Abigail Grace, so Nicole did exactly that. Nicole and her late boyfriend, Liam, were going to get married after Abby was born.
It didn't happen.
"Maya Hart." Dr. Rachel Jordan said.
I stand up and walk to meet Dr. Jordan. My friends and family follow.
"Dr. Jordan, these are my 2 best friends, Riley and Farkle. And Lucas's sister, Nicole. And her daughter Abby."
"Hello to everyone." Dr. Jordan said, "17 weeks. Hoping to find out if it's a boy or girl?"
"Yup." Lucas said.
"Any bets?" Dr. Jordan, "I get it a lot."
"Me and Lucas both want a girl but, in reality, as long as it's happy and healthy." I say.
"Let's get started."
Dr. Jordan spreads the gel and moves the wand.
"Your baby is slightly bigger than average."
"Will it be okay?" Lucas asks.
"He'll be just fine." Dr. Jordan says with a smile. WHAT?!
"It's a boy!?" Me and Lucas say at the same time.
"Congrats on your baby boy." She pauses, "I'll be right back." She leaves.
"Who knew it was going to be a boy?" Lucas said.
Nicole and Farkle raise their hand.
"The rest of you wanted a girl?" I say.
"I did." Riley said.
"Mom?" I say.
"I knew it was going to be a boy." Mom said, "Just by the way you acted and the way you're carrying him."
I smile at her, "Abby, do you want a boy or girl cousin?"
"Girl!"
"Abby, Aunt Maya is having a boy." I've always been Aunt Maya to Abby. It's just easier.
"Oh."
"Is that okay?" I ask Abby.
"Yeah. He cool." She runs over to me. I pick her up. She hugs me.
"That's your cousin." I point to the screen.
"Why he there?" Abby said.
"That's where babies are until they are born."
"Oh. Okay." Nicole gets her.
October 16, 2018 Maya's POV
"Lucas, I can't do this. I've been at it for 29 hours and been a 6 for 4 of those." I say.
"Here comes Dr. Jordan." Lucas said.
"Maya, we're going to do a quick ultrasound." Dr. Jordan said, "Just to make sure everything is okay."
"Okay."
A few minutes later, Dr. Jordan knows what's wrong, "Maya, your baby's head it tilted up."
"Is that okay?"
"Not really. When babies enter the cervix, the tuck their head in. Your baby is doing the opposite. That's causing you not to dilate."
"What does that mean?" I ask.
"It means we're going to have to give you a c-section." Dr. Jordan said.
"Oh." I start to cry. Lucas holds my hand, "Are you sure?"
"It's the safest way."
"Okay. Whatever's safest for him." I say, "He's all I care about."
October 16, 2018 4:24 PM Maya's POV
Lucas hasn't let go of my hand. My mom is behind me. Normally only 1 person is allowed when it's a c-section, but since I'm 16, my mom is allowed in. Thank God.
I hear the cry of my son. He's here. Lucas rushes over.
"Cut it in between the 2 clamps." They're talking about the umbilical cord.
"It felt so good." Lucas says.
"6 lbs. 15 oz. 19 in. He's a little guy." Dr. Jordan said.
"Hi." Lucas says to him, "You're so perfect. You're mine forever." I see him kiss him.
They wrap him up and bring him over to me, "Hi." I say to my son. He's so perfect in every way possible. He looks just like, "Lucas, he looks just like you."
"Do you have a name?" Dr. Jordan said.
"No. Not yet." Lucas said.
About 20 minutes later, I'm back in mu hospital room. My son is perfectly okay. They just needed to check him since he was in a weird position. He's a little swollen. But perfect, neverless.
"Cody James?" I say.
"I like it but, it's not his name." Lucas said.
"You're right."
"Andrew Jacob?"
"I don't see it." I say, "What about Dylan?"
"Dylan. Dylan. Dylan." Lucas said. He pauses, "It's perfect."
"Dylan Michael Friar." I say.
"Dylan Michael Friar." Lucas says.
6 Months Later Lucas's POV
I wake up and Maya's not there. Maybe Dylan woke her up? I go over to the crib. Dylan's sound asleep. I pick him up. He wake up.
"Hey buddy. Do you know where mommy is?" Maya moved in with me 2 months before Dylan was born.
I walk into the kitchen, hoping to find Maya making breakfast or something.
I find a note.
Dear Lucas,
I thought I was ready, but I'm not. It's as simple as that. I can't give Dylan the life that he deserves. But you can. Raise Dylan. I'll be back. I just don't know when. I love you to the moon and back. And I love Dylan Michael to Pluto and back.
Love,
Maya Sydney Hart
"Well, Dylan, I guess it's just you and me now."
I kiss Dylan's head. What am I going to do?
Current Time May 18, 2024 Maya's POV
I knock on the door to his apartment.
"Hey." I say.
"Hey." Lucas said.
Should I continue and make it a two-shot?
Review it up.
