Eleventh grade is not what I expected...Just fuck everything. :/ Haha, so I just wanted to giving you guys something so I can have at least one good thing going on. I'll try to update as frequently as I can. :) Anyways, here's a new story! Hope you all enjoy.

Chapter One: You Keep Making Me Weak (Cam's POV)
Day fifteen. Today was the fifteenth day since I have been in love with the most amazing, beautiful, and extraordinary girl, Maya Matlin. Of course you would think that we are dating, hahaha no. I don't even know how to start a conversation with her, and that is was really pisses me off. I'm such an awkward creep around her, but I can't control it. I should just get some guts and just go up to her and say just a simple 'hello'. Why can't I just do that? Doesn't seem that hard.
"Cam, you listening?" I felt someone shove my shoulder snapping out of my trance. "Uh, sorry what?" I asked holding my shoulder that he shoved. Ow. "I said: You gotta wake up, man! We have a game tonight! I need you in the zone if we wanna make it to the cup!" Dallas said obviously aggravated with me. "Oh, right." I said looking down at my feet. I honestly do not want to play hockey tonight. The only thing that made we so happy back home now making me miserable and unhappy. It's that not I hate to sport. I just hate my so called 'family' that I call my teammates. Well... not all of them per say but most of them are just a bunch of douches.
"Okay, what's wrong? You've been like this all week." Dallas turned to me towering over me because of our height difference. "Yeah, it's just my family. Can't help but miss them." I half lied. It's not that I didn't miss my family, I did. A lot actually... It's just hockey just isn't what it used to be. I used to have a lot of fun playing it with my brother Justin, even though he would shoot for my face. It's like it lost it's spark after I joined the Ice Hounds.
"See man, that's why you need a puck bunny. I bet you'll feel better if you uh...get it in. If you know what I mean..." He said as he chuckled nudging my arm with his elbow. I rolled my eyes, "Uh. No thanks I'm okay without that." I said disturbed. Not only was I not interested in puck bunnies. But um, gross.
"Okay what ever you say. So how's it going with chicken cutlet?" He asked as he turned around from me and packed up his bag to go home and prepare for the game tonight. "Please don't call her that. And nothing, I don't even know what to say. I've only talked to her a total of probably three times!" I said hopelessly. Why do I have to so shy, it's pathetic! "Sorry, bro. Maybe you should invite her to the game tonight. Didn't she have that band practice thingy after school today? Maybe she hasn't left yet." He suggested.
I shrugged my shoulders, "Okay, I'll go check." I said grabbing my bag and bolting to the exit and opened the door stepping out. I made my way towards the music room where they have band practice to find them packing up their things, "Maya, that piece was great! Keep it up." Mo commented as Maya flashed his her amazing smile. Cam stepped aside to let the band members out of the room.
The last one was Maya. She stepped outside of the music room and looked up at me and smiled, "Cam. Hey, what are you doing here?" She asked. I smirked nervously. It's okay, Cam. It's just talking; you got this. "Well, practice was over so I was just wondering if you were still here. Which, you obviously are." I said then smiled at her. "Well now that you're here, I have a walking buddy. Care to join?" She asked holding out her arm for me to link them together. My heart fluttered, was this really happening? Was I going to walk Maya Matlin, herself home? Oh snap out of it, Cam. It's not like she's the queen of England, calm down. "I'd love to." I finally answered linking my arm with hers.
We walked down the hallway and out to the front steps of the school. I was probably smiling like a complete idiot the whole time trying to contain my excitement. About half of the way back to her house she asked something that caught me off guard, "Does the team hate me? You know ever since I threw the cutlet thing at Owen's head..." I looked over at her as we stopped walking.
"Nah, girls do that all the time to them. It's normal for them to get chicken cutlets thrown at their heads." I joked making her giggle. Oh my god, why is she so adorable? "Well, that's good I guess." She replied. Okay, maybe it's time to grow some man parts and ask her...But what if she says no? That'll be really embarrassing. Ugh! This is getting annoying! Why can't I just ask her for Pete's sake! Alright, here goes nothing...
"So, now that you know the hockey team doesn't hate you, if you're...um. Not doing anything later...do you maybe want to go to my hockey game tonight...at six? If you can't that's fine and-" I babbled nervously but was cut off by her finger on my lips making me shut the hell up. I looked down into her piercing blue eyes and was instantly lost in them. She looked up at me through her glasses and gave me her famous Maya smile, "Cam. I'd love to." She said removing her finger from my lips.
I smirked, "Well okay then." I said as we continued to walk to her house. On our way there we talked about everything and nothing. Just a normal conversation, but it still made me unbelievably nervous. I honestly was nervous because I was afraid to say something that might scare her off...I have the tendency to do that. We arrived at her front door in 20 minutes. I stood across from her in front of her door. She smiled, "Thanks for walking me home." She said to me.
"It was no problem. So I'll see you tonight?" I asked raising my eyebrows. She smiled, "Yes, you will...Thanks for inviting me to your game. I bet you'll do great!" She thanked me again. No, thank you for agreeing to come. "You're welcome. So I'll Facerange chat you before the game, so be online." She added while winking. I felt the butterflies soar in my stomach as I smiled hugely like a moron.
"O...kay." I said as my voice cracked from shock. What is this girl doing to me? She smirked, "I talk to you later, Cam." She giggled from my response and walked into her house. I mentally slapped myself when she shut her door. Jesus, Cam. Way to be cool! She probably thinks you're a socially awkward freak! She was laughing at you! Wow, I'm such a dork. And- My thoughts were interrupted when I heard the door open suddenly.
I snapped back around to see Maya looking at me, "Hey." I said simply. What? "Um...I kinda forgot something." She said hesitantly. "Wha-?" I asked but I was cut off from her bringing her lips up to my cheek. I felt my cheek burn as I felt her soft lips touch them. She pulled away smiling lightly. I returned it as she turned around back to her door. She looked at me, "I'll talk to you later, Cam." I spoke. And with that, she shut the door behind her.
I brought my hand up to the cheek that she kissed. I can get used to this...
Eh, this one was alright. I think the next ones are going to be better, y'know? Okay, so review if you liked it! :) Thank you, lovelies!
