Chapter 3

He was pretty much conflicted, Guy had felt this way for a while but after Maz got hurt his feelings hit him like a bus. He always compressed his feeling because he wanted to focus on being SheZow and him feeling all sappy wouldn't help, well in his mind he thought it wouldn't at least. It was then he got the sudden realization...

"What if I just waiting for him like I did with Wanda?" he said to himself. Thought of it almost made him cry, almost. He just sucked it up and went to sleep.

The next day, Guy just stayed in his room. His mom wanted him to go outside but he just wasn't feeling it. He was eventually made to get dressed and go outside because according to his mother it was "nice outside ". He knew he would run into Maz if he did since he went to their house almost everyday.

Meanwhile at the Kepler resistance, Maz was also thinking before his mother made him go outside because she thought it was nice. He was thinking about what Guy had said to him before that awkward hug. "What did more than just a sidekick mean?" he thought, "Maybe he said that because we're best friends! Friends...huh" He could have sworn his cheeks were feeling warmer but shrugged it off because it was the middle of July. He sat on the porch when he saw Guy skateboarding down the street. "Hey Guy!" he yelled. Guy felt way too mixed up inside to say anything, but Maz was still his best friend so he couldn't just ignore him. He waved and continued on his way. Maz could tell Guy wasn't acting normally so he grabbed his skateboard and went after him. Guy noticed and started going faster but Maz caught up to him.

"Guy, what's the matter? You aren't talking to me." He asked with concern. Guy didn't answer and just went faster.

"Did I do something, you can't just ignore me." Still not saying a word, he skated faster and faster until he hit a rock and fell flat on his face. He wasn't terribly injured, the most he got were some scrapes and a nosebleed. "Guy are you ok?" Maz helped him up saw his nosebleed and got scared.

"I'm fine I promise, I'm gonna home." Guy said. He was about to walk away until Maz grabbed his arm. Guy turned around and they made direct eye contact. "Look, I can tell there's something wrong and i wanna help, but i can't if you don't talk to me, what's wrong" Maz had a serious tone of voice.

"I just feel weird, I can't think straight..." Guy answered.

"Do you know what you're feeling?"

Guy shook his head no. It took a lot of thinking but he actually did know what he was thinking, he was just at a loss for words. Maz really didn't know what to do, so he just gave him a hug. Was it awkward as heck, yes indeed, but Guy just excepted it and the two just hugged, right in the middle of the road without saying another word.
