Hello guys, I've been seeing you really needed an update of this story so here you go. This chapter was more fluffy and borderline M than anything else because I needed to cut off some drama that had been going on and the next chapter will be about Riley and Maya unless I change my mind!
Let me know what you think and thanks for all your sweet reviews! I'll be updating You, again or Wake-Up call or maybe Senior year. Who knows? Maybe I'll reach my goal for tomorrow night!
Hey MayaVasquez! I just saw your review on Fresh Start, I hadn't really thought about it, I think you subconsiously gave me the name of the teacher, lol!
And my disclaimer: I do not own GMW or else Maya and Lucas would be totally going to pools at night.
Maya danced on top of the counter of the bar as people cheer her, she sway her hips side-to-side and laughed. Maya was unquestionably being the one that everyone will remember in that White party, she glance and the people who were cheering her and laughed, she had definitely turned on the party, even some other girls had copy her and were dancing near her. And she couldn't have a better time, she doesn't care about anything, no etiquette, this was the real her. Maya continue to sway her hips as she slowly move her hands up her body and chest around her neck, guys began screaming things and she bit her lower lip. She loved it, the attention and the way the way the buzz had made her a little bit dizzy, a little bit careless, she was the Golden Girl, and everyone would want to see her like that. Maya low down and she started to rise her white long dress, her dress riding up dangerously high, giving a perfect look of her long legs to everyone. She glances at the direction of Josh and he's just looking at her with his sparkly grey/blue eyes and she giggles and gives him a rather racy look, Maya decides to give a spin just to add something but suddenly she trips with her own dress.
There are screams along with the music and Maya closes her eyes swearing this would be the end of her, she was waiting for a rough hit on her back but instead she falls into someone's arms, holding her tightly and the crowd roars happily. Maya opens her eyes, one by one, and she sees Lucas laughing at her, she reciprocated the little laughed as he putted her down on the floor.
"You almost kill yourself there, Shortstack. I know you won and everything but if you want me to keep my promise you might want to be alive for it." Lucas said blissfully and Maya felt her cheeks getting red, right the bet, she thought.
It hadn't been too long before they were both lean down on the counter taking a few shots, the music was starting to get high and so the mood was just starting; but now? Maya was beyond gone, it was almost 1 o' clock. They had to a number of rounds because Maya always said Lucas was cheating, Lucas knew he wasn't and this was just the semi-drunk Maya talking but he surrender to her will of playing more and more; after about 10 rounds with intermediate dancing too low down the drinks on Maya's body. Maya was done and decided to climb into the counter to dance since she thought it was more fun that way, she thought the party was too boring for her and if she wasn't the one doing it then no one would. Lucas couldn't deny, he loved to meet Maya like this, they have talked and she was indeed pretty cool, well when she was drunk and pretty racy too. Lucas couldn't say that he had fell for her, it would ruin things for him if he fell for her, but he needed to focus on the moment, he wanted a game and she was in.
"You know Huckleburry? I might want to go swimming right now." Maya exclaimed triumphantly as she gave Lucas a smirk.
Maya knew back in her head that this was not only for herself, it was also to make Josh jealous but she couldn't deny she was getting some feelings for Lucas. Maybe it was the alcohol acting, maybe it was the way Lucas' chest felt so good against her, how tight he hold her or the fact that she might be interested in him, but really wanted to be with him. Maya giggled and grab his hand, making her way through the crowd making their way to the pool.
"Are you sure? You want to do this?" Lucas asked Maya, he did want to see Maya again like that. It was hard for him to erase the image of that same morning, but he was afraid she might do something stupid and everything would end badly.
"Are you saying you're scared Huckleburry?" Maya giggled as they entered the empty poolroom; apparently the majority of the party was on the little lounge or dancing near the bar.
"Maya that's not it-" Lucas began saying as he look back to see if someone was near in case Maya did something stupid so he could call for help but as he turned around he had a front view of Maya undressing. She was wiggling the dress of, leaving it in the edge of the pool, the light of the moon and the lights of the party reflected on her porcelain skin. Lucas swallowed hard; his eyes lingered to her body once again.
"You promised something, now get your clothes off!" Maya exclaimed as she gave Lucas an alluring expression. But he was frozen and it was the first time it had happened to him, he knew his moves with a girl and he wasn't dazzled with any girls and all the girls he played with where beautiful, but there was something about Maya's laugh and her personality that hooked Lucas.
Maya didn't even care to notice Lucas anxious state, she was in her underwear with the guy she hated since they were kids and now she was yanking off his blazer and shirt. Lucas tried to brush of how his heart was pounding hard in his chest and fall from the trance; Maya's eyes were sparkling with excitement.
"You know, for someone who hates me it seems that you really want to see me naked." Lucas said as he unbuttoned his pants and dropped them, Maya stopped for a second not only because of his previous statement, but also because he look really good, his sea-foam green eyes sparkle with the light of the moon. Maya felt waves of fear and something else striking her body. "What?" Lucas asked when he got his socks off, looking at Maya with a smirk.
"No-Nothing." Maya manage to articulate as she got off her trance.
"So are you still in for this?" Lucas taunted and Maya just nodded with a smile, it seemed like all the alcohol she had, got down by just watching Lucas.
"Uhm, yeah let's do it Huckleburry." Maya stutter, Lucas just contemplated at her and nodded. Maya knew she shouldn't be feeling this, she wanted Josh not Lucas but the thing was, she had a really great time with him taking away the fact that she had almost ended her relationship with her best friend, it seemed like she had a wonderful time with Lucas.
But Maya's thoughts were interrupted when Lucas clear his throat, he was already in the edge of the pool, giving her a side-glance with one of those genuine smiles of him. Maya just laughed and stood right beside him, it couldn't be any crazy, she was with her future husband (at least at the moment), the guy he had hated her whole life, in their white underwear, about to jump into a pool at 1:30 am. Maya never thought she be seeing the day she would have a good time with Lucas, it had only been a week since he arrived and she had talked to Lucas more that day than in their twelve summers together.
"One" Lucas yelled, excited as he glanced at Maya.
"Two" Maya yelled as well and unexpectedly she took a hold of Lucas' hand. Their gazes link together and smile.
"Three" Both yelled at the same time and jumped into the pool.
It was beyond cold but after a few seconds it became bearable, they lasted a few seconds under the water and they both got their heads out to take a breath on the same moment. Lucas pulled Maya tightly against him and Maya just followed his lead placing her hands on his strong shoulders, they gawked at each other, unreadable expression in each other's faces. It was something new in their relationship, maybe this could be the time they could actually try to be something, but both of them were too busy with their own plans, Maya took her hands of and pull Lucas apart swimming until she reached a edge.
"What are you doing?" Lucas asked her curiously, he had notice the abrupt way Maya turned away and he indeed wanted to know.
"Aren't we going to swim?" Maya shrugged. "Let's make a race!" Maya then exclaim, trying to get Lucas lost.
"I'm afraid if we do that, you might drown." Lucas said.
"Are you worried about me?" Maya proposed and Lucas just shut his mouth, the movement of the water being the only sound at the moment, again a stare-down but suddenly Maya looked past Lucas and saw a sneaky Josh walking towards them.
It was the moment to make him jealous.
"No-No." Lucas stutter, trying to mask how red his cheeks were turning.
"Yes you are Ranger Rick, you are worried about me." Maya yelled playfully as she swim towards Lucas and climb like a koala over him.
Lucas restrained a little groan when he felt his arousal against Maya's hot spot. Maya looked past Lucas again, making sure Josh was coming and seeing her with Lucas, unfortunately Lucas notice and he turned around as well, he couldn't deny it hurt a bit to be used, specially by Maya. But it remained him that he had his own game and if Maya wanted to play, he could play too. From one moment to another, without previous notice, Lucas took a tight hold of Maya, pressing her more against him and making her gasp in shock, before pulling her down with him into the water. Maya could swear she swallow a lot of water and when Lucas pulled her out she was coughing nonstop and kicking Lucas away, he laughed.
"You stupid Huckleburry!" Maya barked and Lucas just looked at her. He had ruined her chance to make Josh jealous now that she was beyond furious with Lucas. "What was that for!?"
"If you wanted your prince charming to come, I'm sure he will if he see's you in danger." Lucas spit out with a smirk, he knew this wasn't the best way to conquer her but he was furious and snappy with her too.
Maya turned around, her jaw clenched to see Josh at that moment walking away from the pool. Apparently now that he had seen Maya kicked Lucas, he had been sure there was nothing going on and he left. Maya splash her hands against the water, pissed off by Lucas actions.
"You're a total dick!" Maya scolded as she swam towards him, she wanted to slap him on the face so hard.
"And you're a total bitch for using me!" Lucas replied to her in the same orotund voice, their breathings getting heavy.
"What do you care? You're a man whore, you would dream to have a chance with me!" Maya hissed as she punch him in his chest.
"Oh please, I can't stand you and I would never want to be with you in any level, not even for fun!" Lucas shouted at her and Maya gasped.
"You were fucking awe-struck with me today cowboy, don't think I didn't saw it." Maya began saying defiantly as she got nearer Lucas and he tried to swim away from her, he was saying he didn't wanted to be with her? Well Maya would prove him wrong. Lucas on the other hands swallowed hard.
"Please, you're just praising yourself, you think you're the one girl everybody wants." Lucas replied to her, his voice a little shaky but the sudden change on Maya's eyes, now she gave him a rather racy look.
"Because I am, come on Huckleburry, I felt it." Maya tease him with an alluring expression and Lucas could swear all his blood traveled south. "I know you want me." Maya said each time getting closer to him until Lucas hit his back with the edge of a pool.
"I do-" Lucas stutter but Maya put a hand on his lips softly and he place her legs around his torso, the friction made Lucas release a groan.
"Don't fight it." Maya whisper and then she grabbed Lucas' face with his hand and he could swear he was done after that, the touch of Maya could set him off really easily and he was beyond turned on by her. And Maya didn't thought it will happen to her too but she could swear that the waves of excitement began getting stronger, as the moment pass.
Both of them stare at each other, the air full of tension, the music of the party faraway playing but the strong sound of their beating hearts were the main music for them. It wasn't until Lucas looked down at Maya's lips that they got even closer, he began to lean in and she did the same, it was going to happen they were going for it and there was no going back from that.
Until someone clear his throat.
Both of them pulled apart suddenly at glance at the direction where the sound came from. It was Farkle, hands in his pockets, eyes of them but uninterested. Maya had her heart beating hard in her chest; she wanted to punch Fakrle for interrupting that precise moment, although she somehow was thankful for it as well. It was weird and Maya had to sort out her feelings, she looked back at Lucas who had the same annoyed expression on his face. But then she turned around to face Farkle and Maya immediately knew there was something bothering him for the way his jaw was clenched and his lips pursed.
"What happened Farkle?" Maya asked him, clearly worried about him as she swam towards the stairs of the pool.
"It's Riley, she's… she's not okay. She just told her parents about it and she called the engagement off." Farkle said on a husky voice. Maya stood there petrified, she was beyond worried her best friend, she knew how hard this must be for her but the thing was she was still beyond repulse by Riley's reaction to Charlie's attack. "She needs you Maya."
"She clearly didn't need me when she called me a slut because her boyfriend wanted to molest me." Maya noted in a sarcastic tone as she grabbed a towel that was in a chair, she felt Lucas turning around in the water glancing at her, really worried about it.
"Maya, I didn't know, why didn't you let me help?" Lucas exclaimed as he pulled out of the water. Lucas now understood why she had been acting so weird that day and that's why she had been crying, she felt beyond bad for letting her drink and not helping her resolve the issue.
"Don't worry Prince Charming, It's something between me and my best friend. I can handle it." Maya said with a dismissive tone as she turned around to look at him while he put on his clothes.
"But you don't have too. I know you don't like me but you shouldn't fight this on your own. I'll kill that son of a bitch." Lucas growled.
He knew that he could be an asshole to girls sometimes but force them to do something? It was disgusting, he hated people like that and he cared about Maya, enough to put back aside his anger control and put on the aggressive Lucas he tried to hide. Lucas began to walk furiously to find the bastard but Farkle put a hand on his shoulder to stop him.
"Don't worry Texas guy, I already took care of him." Farkle explain in a husky voice. "They escorted him out since this afternoon, he should be on the police station right now." Farkle said calmly, he then turned to face Maya. Maya glanced at Lucas momentarily, she knew he got very angry sometimes since they were kids but this was one of the first times she actually saw him getting all fire up, he had his hands clenched into fist, his jaw clenched and his breathing heavy. "I know what she said, I know she was beyond wrong to say those things but she needs you Maya."
Maya gave Farkle a frown. Maya knew she wanted to be there for Riley, more than anything it the world but the way she had treated her was somehow irreparable or maybe it was and Maya had to listen to Riley as well.
"Farkle I-" Maya began saying but was cut off by Farkle.
"The only thing I know it's that the two of you can't be apart, it shakes the foundations of the whole world." Farkle explain and Maya just took in the message, it was hard and she had to be there for her friend either way.
"Let's go." Maya then exclaimed and smile at Farkle and Farkle did the same. He turned around and Maya followed him in a hurry. But then Farkle turned around to say something to Lucas.
"Your friend Zay? He's having sex in the second floor with Sarah so, he's a bit bussy." Farkle said as he waved bye at Lucas and continue his path, damn now he was wet and alone, he groaned.
Suddenly Maya came back running to him and Lucas watched her with sweetness, she had her cheeks a bit reddish and her baby blue eyes sparkle so much.
"My driver is on the front of the house, he will take you to my house and thank you, for worrying about me." Maya said softly at the end, she raised on her tip toes and gave him a sweet kiss on the cheek, right in the corner of his lips and went away.
And Lucas simply had a goofy grin on his face.
