Chapter One

Maya and I were sitting on the couch, watching a movie we had rented this evening. It was called "Love in the Midst"; some popular romantic film between these two random confused teenagers. I've only heard good things about it, but these romantic films weren't really my thing. However, since I would be spending time with her, I thought it couldn't really hurt.

'O. M. G. Ema, isn't that just the cutest thing?' Maya asked me in a deep sigh.

I looked towards the screen; what a tedious task. In the movie, a man was writing a love note for his girlfriend: 'You're as beautiful as the moon in the dark night. You're as bright as the sun in the middle of a summer day...' I immediately looked away and started to gag.

Maya bore a curious expression on her face, which I could see at the top of my eyes. 'Are you alright, Ema?' She asked with deep concern.

'Yeah, just bad salad,' I said with a fist clenched near my chest. Of course, it wasn't the salad I was eating that was bad; it was the movie.

Nevertheless, she bought the lie and continued to watch the movie. Of course, I had to continue watching the dreadful film, also. After all, I didn't want to look too out of place especially since I was the one that suggested the movie night. I mean, there would even be times during the movie where I felt I had to shout out random crap just to make it look like I cared. An example of this is right now.

'Ohhhh my god. No. Way.' I articulated. I knew it would be a good time to say this cause some bitch in the film just swore at some random guy.

Maya turned to me. 'I know, right? That woman has serious issues.'

I nodded forcefully. This was really painful. I just wanted to be with her... that's it. Should I really have to bear through the torture of watching this film? I mean the pain and suffering I was going through now was even greater than the torment I go through when I watch "Grey's Anatomy" or "One Tree Hill"... and even "Gossip Girl"; god those shows are bad.

She turned to me again. 'Did you see that?!' She yelled.

I jolted out of my seat. The voice that girl has... it can pierce your ears. My lord.

'Well, did you?!' She repeated.

I put my finger up to my lips to kind of give her the message I was trying to focus on the film. I could see out of the corner of my eye that she had turned back to watch the movie. Good thing to, because I had no idea what the hell just happened.

* * *

I was getting really tired and it was hard to keep my eyes open, never mind keeping them open AND watching the movie. Maya's gaze, in contrast, was still wide open like dinner plates facing towards the screen.

I lied down on her shoulder; she didn't seem to mind. She was still too busy watching the film.

'I think I'm going to go to sleep on your shoulder,' I said jokingly.

'Okay, have a good sleep,' she responded mindlessly. Again, she was probably too focused on the film to care.

Pleasantly surprised, I snuggled up beside her, still with my head on her shoulder. I stroked her arm, feeling the smooth, silky skin she bore. It was so soft. I was almost just tempted to get up and kiss her right now. We could make love for hours, passionately kissing as the terrible movie played in the background. It would be nice.

However, I also considered, she would never kiss me. She's not into that sort of thing as far as I knew. She spent so much time with Phoenix, it would come as no surprise if I found out they were a couple.

I groaned.

'Something the matter, Ema?' Maya asked me, taking her focus away from the film.

'Nah, I was just stretching and kind of made a weird noise,' I lied blatantly. 'Just watch the movie, I'm actually just about to fall asleep.'

She laughed a bit for some reason and then wished me a good night.

I wish it would be one. However, each night I spend knowing we're not mutually in love with each other breaks my heart.

I lightly kissed her shoulder and murmured, 'I love you.'
