Authors Note~ So if you haven't noticed yet unlike the show the chapters are named after Lucas or Maya (mostly Maya..) Anyway, hope ya'll enjoy this one. I've noticed each chapter gets only one or two reviews (which I appreciate! 3) but if you reading please drop a review! .
When Friday had finally arrived Lucas had decided that it was time to ask Maya out, put up or shut up, he told himself. He couldn't deal with the constant paranoia of wether or not she liked him back. Lucas wasn't used to feeling so head over heals like this, he had always been chased and never felt any need to chase, Maya was different, she wouldn't let him feel even a little in control and it made him even more crazy about her.
"Hey Maya." Lucas turned to face her eagerly, of course he didn't show it though.
"Sup SunDance?" The blonde grinned mischievously. Maya knew Lucas took no offence to her remarks, in fact she kind of had the feeling he might even enjoy them. She didn't think he liked her, but she did think he valued her as a friend to some degree.
Ignoring the remark Lucas spoke quiet and nervously "Listen Maya there's som-"
"Morning class." Cory smile happily interrupting Lucas's statement.
It was almost as if the world was trying to tell Lucas not to date Maya. Every time he went to ask the spunky blonde on a date some thing interrupted him, next time he would have to do better, he'd have to be alone with Maya.
"Tell me later, alright Hop-Along?" She winked with a wicket grin before turning back to her desk and the front of the class.
"That girl is some thing.." he thought quietly to himself looking up at Cory.
It was that night that Lucas decided to put his plan into action, but he needed Riley's help. His initial idea was to have a movie, but to have Riley and Farkle leave during it, probably with Maya in the bath room or occupied else where so she couldn't stop them, then Lucas could finish the movie with Maya and walk her home afterwards. Maybe he would simplify it to the point that Riley and Farkle wouldn't even have to come, he could say they got busy, but for now that was his only idea.
"So movie tonight at my house?" Lucas asked his friends by their lockers confirming their plans.
"You know it." Maya smiled.
"Sure thing Lucas!" Riley agreed. She still wasn't "team Laya" but she wasn't going to sabotage them or anything... right?
"Of course." Farkle said shaking his head to the side moving his hair out of the way.
"Awesome!" Lucas smiled to the fact that his plan was coming together.
"See ya there cow boy." Maya grinned getting out of her seat.
"Of course you will Ms Clutterbucket." He smiled tipping his imaginary hat "after all it is my house."
"weak response SunDance." Maya replied rolling her eyes with a slight chuckle as she left the room.
"Get a room!" Most of the class shouted as they finished packing up their book bags and got ready to leave like Maya had.
Waiting for everyone to show up Lucas was preparing for the movie. He had popped some non-buttered pop corn, poured a few glasses of juice and set it all down on the coffee table by the tv, that's when the door bell rang.
"Ranger Rick!" Maya shouted ringing the door bell again.
"I'm coming!" Lucas assured her heading to the door. "Hey!" He smiled after opening it for Maya.
"Hey there buddy." Maya grinned walking on in.
"Please, let me take your jacket." He smiled, Maya wasn't wearing a jacket, he just liked playing their game.
"Of course!" Maya smiled pretending to take off a jacket and hand it to Lucas, who seemed to be very into the game taking the extra step and walking to the coat hanger laying the fake jacket there.
"Where's Riley and Farkle?" Lucas questioned curiously, of course he was happy to be left alone with Maya but he couldn't help his curious nature.
"Riley said she wanted to walk here with Farkle..." She paused "so they're probably awkwardly walking/or hooking up, I just can't tell any more. I used to be able to read Riley like a book." She frowned.
"Aww, I'm sure it won't be like that for long." Lucas smiled trying to comfort Maya.
"Thanks Sun Dance.." Maya said perking up hugging into Lucas.
"Any time Maya." Lucas smiled hugging Maya back, his head was a few notches above hers and he could smell her hair, he liked it, it had a fruity scent, maybe blue berry's?
"Hands get'n a little low on the hug there Ranger Roy." Maya teased, of course it wasn't. Lucas was a perfect gentlemen but Maya loved teasing him and making him panic, it was so easy and brought her so much amusement.
"Oh sorry!" He took his hands off of her immediately and looked away awkwardly scratching his neck "aww-Ermm-aww... Sorry..." He looked down repeating his apology.
"I'm kidding!" She punched his arm gently.
"Good." Lucas sighed in relief.
