Maya and Lucas were on the phone.
"Have you settled into your house yet?" Maya asked.
"A little bit, there's some boxes we haven't un-packed yet." Lucas answered.
"It's been only 2 weeks and I miss you already" Maya frowned.
Lucas sighed. "I looked it up and we're, 2,916.8 miles away".
"Lucas! Who are you talking to?" A girl asked Lucas.
"Who's that?" Maya asked.
"No one, I got to go. Bye Maya" Lucas hung up the phone.
"Katie, I wasn't talking to any one" Lucas smiled.
"I'm so happy you moved here. I missed you so much" Katie smiled.
"I know right. I haven't seen you, since you dumped ice cream all over my shirt, in fourth grade" Lucas laughed.
"Yeah, because I had a humongous crush on you" Katie told him.
"Please I should be the one who was nervous. You were so pretty, with those cute little pig tails" Lucas smiled.
Katie kissed him. Katie had long dark brown hair. She had gray eyes, and always wore some kind of dressy attire.
"No but seriously Lucas….who was that on the phone?" Katie frowned.
"No one, she's just another girl" Lucas spoke.
"Other girl, to memorize how miles you are away from each other?" Katie cocked an eyebrow.
"Kate, babe; you've got nothing to worry about. I had a crush on her, but these 2 weeks changed me" Lucas smirked.
Katie smiled, and hit him in the chest.
Maya checked the mail, and went back inside.
She was watching Family Feud with her Grandmother.
"What did Lucas say?" Her grandmother asked.
"Oh, he just said how many miles we are away. How cute is that?" Maya smiled. "But then I heard a girl on the phone. Its probably nothing" Maya frowned fiddling with her hands.
Her grandmother's face changed, from happy to angry. "I told him not to hurt you! I'm going to hunt him downnn!"
"Grandmother come on!" Maya frowned.
"No! I'm calling him right now" Her grandmother yelled.
Maya's eyes widened.
"Hello?" Her grandmother said over the phone.
"Who's this?" Lucas asked.
"You hurt my daughter! And you're going to pay" Her grandmother growled.
"Who is this?" Lucas questioned.
"Maya's grandmother! You didn't even say miss you too! You just got your kiss and left! I thought you said you like her!" Her grandmother yelled.
Maya smiled "He said that?!"
"I do like Maya. I'm crazy about her. It's just I'm trying to move on. I don't want to be hung up on her, and never see her again. I'm dating an old classmate. But…I don't think it is working. Every time Katie and I kiss, I don't feel the same spark I felt with Maya. I'm already having a problem functioning with me thinking about Maya all the time. Imagine if I fall in love with her. I'd be messed up." Lucas explained.
Her grandmother gasped. "You are one hung up guy. You know what. I'm going to mail you a surprise"
"Maya's going to visit me?" Lucas asked excited.
"No. That'd be crazy! You'll see" Her grandmother hung up, "Maya you should have heard him. He's crazy about you".
"You're lying" Maya frowned.
"No, I'm not. To prove it to you….I'm flying you and I to California for a week! If you're not satisfied we come back. If you are…you know- we stay" Her grandmother smiled. (Let's just call her Rosie from now on)
Maya raised an eyebrow. They started to pack, got their passports; they already had, and went to the airport, by a taxi.
"We don't even know where they live grandmother" Maya frowned.
"Stop being a downer Maya" Rosie smiled. "I'll call him"
Lucas picked up. "Hello?"
"Where do you live so I can send the package?" Rosie asked.
"You're now sending the package? Okay" Lucas answered. Lucas gave Rosie the address.
Rosie hung up, and got a rental car.
They arrived at his house. But left their luggage in the car.
Rosie and Maya went to the door. They rang the doorbell.
"I got it!" Ariel yelled to her family. She opened the door.
"Maya! And a old lady!" Ariel jumped in Maya's arms.
"Hi Ariel!" Maya smiled.
"Kids, these days and their bad grammar" Rosie snapped.
"Oh you're just mad because she called you old" Maya smiled putting Ariel down.
"You came at a bad time Maya and the old lady" Ariel frowned.
"Why?" Maya asked.
"Because Lucas and his girlfriend are making out in his room" Ariel pointed to a door.
Maya's face turned angry as she went inside. She went to the door, and banged on it.
"Ooh, girl power!" Ariel and Rosie snapped their fingers while smiling.
Maya heard a thud.
Lucas opened the door, and his shirt was unbuttoned.
"You have something on your face" Maya nagged.
Lucas wiped his lips off.
Katie stumbled out his room, causing tears to form in her eyes.
"I want to kill you Lucas. Why would you do this to me? You knew I was coming, and you just brought another girl in your room?" Maya voice trembled.
"Maya, I-" Lucas began.
"No! You never cared about me! If you did, you couldn't move on this quickly! On the phone, you didn't even say you missed me. I was just some girl you made out with, and watch that zombie show with. And went to get coffee with. Right!?" Maya's voice cracked, as she wiped away her tears.
"No, that's not it at all. Look Maya, I thought I would never see you again, so I had to try and move on. I can't just keep you, but never see you. If that makes sense" Lucas stuttered.
"IT DOESN'T!" Maya screamed.
"Who are you? You don't waltz into some ones house, and yell at them" Katie butted in.
"Who is she?" Maya asked Lucas.
"My girlfriend Katie" Lucas frowned.
"Your girlfriend?! We haven't even been apart for a month!" Maya frowned.
"Maya, we were never even going out" Lucas educated.
Maya frowned. "Right" Maya sighed. "I'm sorry Lucas. Of course you would never return the same feelings. You're Lucas. You can get any girl, why would you choose a nerd?" Maya frowned.
Lucas shook his head. "No Maya that's not what I meant".
"You don't have to feel sorry for me. Have a nice life" Maya started to walk away.
"It wouldn't be a nice life without you" Lucas admitted.
Maya turned around and smiled.
"Yeah I said it. I'm crazy about you! If I never saw you again, I'm pretty sure, I would have gone mental" Lucas walked up to Maya.
Maya blushed hard.
"You're special to me, and I wouldn't hurt you on purpose. May be we can try this again?" Lucas questioned.
Maya had a goofy smile, as she nodded.
"What about me?" Katie said almost in tears.
"We're no longer together" Lucas said to Katie.
Katie ran out the house.
"Yeah get out of here! I didn't like her at all!" Ariel snapped.
"May be you can stay here?" Lucas asked Maya.
"Like in your house? I don't know if that's cool with your parents" Maya told.
"They're good. Go get your bags" Lucas smiled.
Maya looked at her grandmother. Rosie smiled.
Maya giggled and went outside.
Lucas smiled.
