"You're staring again" Maya her best friend says
"huh" Riley answers
"You were staring at Lucas again"
"No I wasn't" she tries to deny it
Maya gives her a look
"Ok I was " she says defeated
"Here's an idea instead of just standing there like a lovesick puppy why don't you go over there and actually talk to him"
"No way! I cant just go up to him, he doesn't even know I exist:"
"because your always so quiet you never really say anything "
"I cant help it I'm not good when it comes to talking to guys, or anyone for that matter"
"well if you never try you'll never know "
Riley sighs
At that moment Riley's older brother Josh walks by
" Hey Riley, Hey Maya"
"Hey Josh" riley calls back
Maya just watches him as he keeps making his way toward lucas and zay
Riley turns to her "looks like I'm not the only lovesick puppy around here"
Maya blushes "shut up" she tries to hide her face in her locker
"You've had a crush on my brother forever why don't you just tell him already"
"Are you kidding he'll probably laugh in my face"
"josh isn't like that"
"forget it, he has a girlfriend anyway, Sandra or whatever"
so"Its Sophie" Riley tells her
'whatever" lets just get to class. They start walking to their first period class
Meanwhile across the hall with the guys
Josh walks up to Lucas and Zay
"Please dude help me out" says Zay practically begging
"Forget it I'm not doing it" says Lucas as he gets his books out of his locker
"Doing what?" josh asks
"going on a double date with Zay and his girlfriend" Lucas answers
"Come on dude Vanessa says that Missy is totally into you and plus shes totally HOT"
"I'm just not interested sorry"
"dude whats up with you how can you turn down a hot babe like this"
"Zay I want more from a girl besides a nice body, I want someone I can talk to someone who gets me"
"whatever dude it's your loss"
bell rings for 1st period
riley is on her way to her locker to get her books for her next class, while shes looking down so she doesn't see where she is going and she bumps into
someone and drops her books on the floor, she bends down to get them.
"oh my gosh I'm so sorry I wasn't looking where I was going are you all right" says a male voice
Riley looks up and realizes the person she bumped into was Lucas
" I'm fine " she says kind of quietly but lucas can still hear her. She begins to pick up her things that fell
Lucas immediately begins to help her
"thanks" say shes quietly
"no problem" he smiles sweetly at her and she swears her heart skipped a beat
"are you sure youre okay" he asks agiain
she simply nods her head and quickly begins to start walking to her locker
lucas is left staring at her till she turns a corner and disappears
who is that girl he wonders
