My name is Riley Matthews. I am a quirky, silly, 12 year old girl. I love life and always look for the best in people. My favorite person is of course my best friend, Maya Hart.
Maya has been acting weird around me lately. Maybe you can help me figure out why.
"Hey, Riles!" Maya greets as she enters my window. She looks way happier to see me than she normally does. It actually creeps me out a little.
"Maya, did you do your homework yet?" I ask before realizing what a pointless question it was.
"Of course I didn't, silly Riley." Maya says as she pulls me into a tight hug. I hug back but when I try to pull away she pulls me in tighter, not letting me go.
"uh...Maya...?" I say awkwardly as She's been hugging me for a long time and i'm unable to break loose.
"Shh, Riles. Today is a beautiful day." Maya said smiling brightly.
"Okay... well why don't we do our homework together." I suggest and she finally lets me go.
"Alright, alright, if that's what makes you happy, pumpkin." Maya answered. I sat down at my desk and Maya sat on my bed and we both pulled out our notebooks. Maya kept looking at me but if I looked back at her she would quickly return to looking at her notebook.
"Maya are you feeling alright?" I asked genuinely concerned. Maya didn't answer. She just looked me straight in the eye and winked flirtatiously. Butterflies broke loose in my stomach. I turned back to my notebook, but I could no longer focus. I was trying so hard to fight the urge to turn around and look at Maya. I felt Maya's arms suddenly wrap around me, which startled me and caused me to jump out of my chair. Since Maya's arms were around me she caught me.
"Calm down there, jumpy." Maya giggled, now carrying me. She set me down on my bed and climbed on top of me. I was beginning to freak out. This has never happened before. I couldn't move or speak. Maya was looking at me with lust in her eyes. And it looked like her eyes were closing. And she was slowly getting closer and closer to my face. OH MY GOSH I THINK SHE'S ABOUT TO KISS ME!
