I'mmaking my fanfic debut with my favorite couple Emaya. I have shipped them since I read the books back in '08, they were my OTP before I even know what that meant lol. I'm planning on making the chapters longer then this one, I just needed to set the story up. R&R :)

Emily POV

I hate Math! Well that's a understatement, I loath Math. I just can't get my brain to process all that information at once. Every time I get bored in Math my mind goes to the most important thing in my life right now, Maya St. Germain. I'm in love, deeply, purely and madly. Maya moved to Rosewood about two years ago. Before Maya I knew deep down that I liked girls, I just didn't want to admit it to myself. So I dated my teammate Ben because it made sense. He was handsome, a star swimmer and he really liked me. Our relationship was doomed from the start, he liked me way more then I liked him. When Ben kissed me I felt like it was a chore, something I had to do. It was always too sloppy and wet. I just always thought kissing wasn't my thing until Maya. Our first kiss was at Noel Kahn's annual back to school party. Maya had been in Rosewood for about three weeks and we had gotten really close in a short period of time. We seemed to have spent every free moment together but I was loving every minute of it. I had really good friends Hanna, Spencer, & Aria. But my friendship with Maya was completely different. We still had inside jokes and made fun of each other like I did with my girls but whenever our skin would brush on accident, I would get a rush of butterflies. I knew Maya felt the same way, I could tell by the way she looked at me. She listened to every word I said like it was the most amazing thing she ever heard and her eyes would always sneak glances at my lips.

"So is it just me or does Sean look really cute tonight?" Hanna asked clearly on the tipsy side.

"Oh believe me its just you" Spencer said probably the only sober person in the whole party.

Me and Aria giggled along while they argued for a while. I had one cup of beer and I still felt perfectly normal. I was starting on my second cup and made no plans of stopping. I needed to forget. Then I felt a soft hand grab mine and I turned around as was greeted by a beautiful face.

"You have got to check out of this photo booth Emily!" Maya said excitedly pulling me away from my friends. Well somebody had been sipping on something I thought to myself. Noel's photo booth was plugged up on the side of his huge estate away from the party. I had to steady Maya the whole way there, what a lightweight. I had to stop myself from checking her out in those tight short shorts she was wearing as she led the way. We crawled into the photo booth and we sitting pretty much on top of each other but I didn't mind. Stop it Emily, I told myself. Maya is just your friend and its just a silly girl crush you have on her, it means nothing. She could have anybody she wanted and she wouldn't choose you.

"Ready?" Maya said grinning up at me and I couldn't help but smile back, she had this crazy affect on me. I nodded and pushed the button. First we made the duck face then Maya made bunny ears behind my head while I stuck my tongue out. The third frame we did our best model pose and the final pose she put her cheek on mine and cradled my face. When the last picture snapped Maya lingered her fingers on my face for longer than necessary and drifted them through my hair, I felt chills run through my body. I took a huge gulp of my beer trying to break the feeling. I started to get up but Maya grabbed my hand and pulled me back down.

"Can we sit for a bit?" She asked. I nodded.

"Ben's friend Tony asked me were you seeing anybody" I said trying to break the awkward silence.

She made a disgusted face and sipped on her drink, "What did you tell him?"

"I told him I would ask if you were interested, he is actually really nice you might like him"

Maya looked up from her drink and looked me deeply in the eyes "He's not my type, trust me! I have my eyes on somebody else" My heart went into my stomach, I couldn't bring myself to ask who I didn't want to know because it wasn't me.

"I broke up with Ben today" Maya seemed to perk up.

"Why?"

"I just-its just I don't like him anymore. I don't think I ever did to be honest" I finally admitted out loud, I could tell the alcohol was getting to me.

"I understand" Maya said.

"I just want to be in a relationship with somebody I'm friends with first. Ya, know?" Maya nodded and I was starting to ramble like I always do when I drink. "I don't know one boy who I ever truly liked in that way, but he has to be out there somewhere. I just have to look really hard. But maybe it's not a boy I'm looking for maybe its-" Maya's head popped up, I stopped talking realizing I said too much.

"Emily.." Maya started but I cut her off.

"I didn't mean it..like..I'm not sure how I" I closed my eyes in embarrassment, their goes our friendship. My thoughts were cut off by the feel of soft lips on mine. Before I could kiss back it was over. I opened my eyes, ours foreheads were still touching.

"I have been wanting to do that since I first saw you" she said smiling softly. I grabbed both of our cups and threw them outside and reached for her. Our lips reconnected and I promise it felt like I was flying, it was way better than kissing Ben. She grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me further into her. She licked my bottom lip asking to enter which was soon granted. Maya tasted like strawberries with a hint of beer, but what a lovely combination. My hand which was in her hair traveled it's way down her back. She took her hand from my neck and traveled down my front landing on my breast and gave it a soft squeeze, causing me to moan. She smiled into kiss pleased with herself. I put my hand on her upper thigh and sucked on her tongue hard and it was her turn to moan. We pulled away from the kiss both of us breathless.

"Wow" was all I could say. She smiled at me and laced our fingers together. Just like that I was officially hooked.

Maya and I dated in secret for a few weeks then I finally told my friends. They all took it well and where really supportive plus they loved Maya. Hanna was the most excited of them all going on and on about how cute Maya was. The hardest part was telling my parents. My dad took it well saying he still loved the same he didn't care who I wanted to be with. My mom on the other hand is still struggling with it over a year later. She chooses to ignore it and pretend Maya is just a friend.

The bell rings snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Oh, class don't forget to pick up your caps and gowns before you leave today" the teacher said as I was walking out of the door. Graduation was three weeks away and I couldn't wait to be out of here. Maya and I were both planning on going to Danby where I got a swimming scholarship. Spotting Maya at her locker changing her books and I made my way to her. She was wearing her signature skinny jeans a flowy red top that looked great on her skin with her hair in soft waves. She turned around and saw me and smiled at me.

"Hey Em"

"Hey" I said back. Funny how her just greeting me can sent chills up my body.

"Walk me to Art?"

"Sure" I said grabbing her hand. I walked her to Art while she talked to me about some big project she had to finish in class. The warning bell rang and I had to head to English with Mr. Fitz.

"Ok i have to go to class" I said turning around. Maya grabbed my hand and spun me around and pecked me on the lips.

"See you later?" she asked.

"Of course. I love you"

"Love you too Em"

I really did love her more than anything and I knew we were going to be together forever.
