Hey, I'M BACK! I know that it's been only like one day, since I've published this story, but... My creative juices are really flowing. Okay, in this chapter we get to meet the new boy. The chapter name ia from one of my favorite movies, Hairspray. And... Lucas chooses Maya. I'm already going to say that, since it's in the summary. Okay, on to the story.

Riley pushed open the doors of Abigail High School. Maya hadn't walked with her to school for days. Riley wasn't sure why. She wished that this whole 'love triangle' never had started. Or at least, wished that Lucas would choose already. Lucas meant a lot to Riley. Maya.. Well she meant a lot too. But she was sick and tired of sharing everything with Maya. Her parents, her family, her room...and now her crush.

Riley realized that it wasn't Maya's fault. It was never her fault. It's just the universe trying to confuse us, Riley was so caught up in her thoughts, she walked right into someone. Riley fell, limbs sprawled out the floor.

"Oh my god! I wasn't looking where I was going. I'm so sorry!" A voice apologized. He picked up the books, and sheepishly ran his hand through his hair.

"Klutzy Riley strikes again," Riley muttered. She opened her eyes and saw a boy. Not just any boy. No, no, no. The most adorable, most handsome, the most charming boy. Sort of like a mini Chris Evans. He reached out his hand and she eagerly grabbed it.

"Hi. I'm Ryan. Ryan Parker." Ryan grinned, and Riley blushed. "I'm new here. And you are..."

"Miley Flatshoes. I mean," Riley took a deep breath and nervously tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. " Riley Matthews. Welcome to Abigail High School. Maybe, if you want.. I could show you around after school tomorrow?"

Ryan's smile grew wider. "I would love to. Thanks." He handed Riley her books. Suddenly, the bell rang. "I guess we've got to go?" Ryan asked.

"Yeah, we do..." Riley replied. And that million dollar smile Ryan gave her made Riley's knees wobble.

Lucas thought and thought. He thought he made the right choice when he called Riley and Maya to Riley's bay window. I'm ready, Lucas thought. When both of the girls had arrived, he cleared his throat.

"I called you guys here today to tell you the decision. I choose..." When suddenly he realized that Riley was wearing a dazed expression. He hadn't seen her all day. Then his mind told him to pick the other Person, instead of the one he had chosen.

"I choose... Maya," He finally breathed out. He turned to look at Maya, who wore sad eyes. Lucas couldn't figure out why, until he realized she was trying not to look at Riley. He then spun around to watch Riley's reaction. She had the dazed face, and... was that a smile? Yes, it was. A genuine smile.

"I'm so happy for you, Peaches! Yaaayyy!" Riley cried. Lucas peered at her, no trace of doubt or hurt. Lucas was a little hurt, he loved Riley. He loved Maya too. Maybe I've made a mistake, Lucas wondered. He quickly shook it off.

"Good luck!" Riley cheered. But Riley's heart hurt so much. She was a great actress. She really wasn't as happy as she let on. And with that, she skipped out of the room, while tears streamed down her face.
