Okay I have returned, I apologize for the LONG delay. But here you go, enjoy :)

Narrator POV:

There was an awkward silence during the walk back to Emily's dorm between her and Carmen. As they walk up the stairs to Emily's door. Carmen places her arm infront of Emily blocking her entrance.

"Carmen what are you doing?" Emily asked with a confused look on her face.

Carmen just smiles a cheeky smile and opens the door for Emily extending her arm "After you."

Emily smiles and walks through the door to her room as she hears the door click shut. But before she is able to take another step into the room, she feels a slight tug on her wrist. Carmen grabs Emily's wrist to spin her around so that there faces are only a few inches from each other. Emily's mind is blurred as she gets lost in those beautiful green eyes. Carmen is unable to control herself as she looks into Emily's big brown eyes. She presses her lips against Emily's and to her surprise Emily does not pull back. Emily lets out a slight moan as Carmen presses her body into Emily's, pressing her against the door. Emily is on cloud nine during the kiss, she tastes a hint of strawberry and suddenly jerks her head back breaking the kiss. Her and Carmen are both out of breath, Emily is on the verge of tears as she walks to her bed.

"Maya tastes like strawberry's." Emily thinks to herself. She takes a seat on the corner of her bed.

Carmen with a confused expression on her face walks and sits next to Emily.

Carmen felt something during the kiss, but not what she thought she would feel. Almost like Emily was kissing someone else not her. She could tell Emily was not fully there during the kiss. She looks over to see Emily not looking at her but fiddling with a ring that she just now noticed she was wearing on her ring finger.

After a while of silence Carmen breathes in and asks "So who is she, the one you were thinking about during the kiss?"

Emily's head shot up as she looked at Carmen shocked, but the expression doesn't last for long, she knows Carmen always had the ability to read her like a open book. Emily smiles a soft smile as she looks back down at her hand and says "Maya, her name is Maya".

"So is that all I'm gonna get or are you gonna tell me about her? Wait I have an even better idea why don't you tell me while we walk to the gym, I could go for a swim, and I need to see if you've gotten better over the years. You do have an extra swim suit right?"

"She always knows what so do to make me feel better." Emily thinks to herself

"Of course I have an extra"

Emily quickly grabs two swim suits as she rushes out the door, after Carmen.

As they walk down the steps Carmen nudges Emily with her arm "So.. tell me about her, and start from the beginning"

Emily smiles to herself as she begins to recall how her and Maya met.

FlashBack

It was early August, a couple weeks before school would begin. Emily and her friends spent the day at Spencer's having a girls day. It was late in the afternoon when Emily was leaving. Just as she walked infornt of her house, she decided to stop and take a look at what was happening across the street.

Directly in front of her house, a new family was moving in. Into Alison's old house, Emily and her friends knew this for thats what they spent most of there time talking about that day, someone was finally moving into the house.

Emily looked and saw a huge box full of Alisons old things on the curb, she hadn't realized her family would leave so much behind, or Ali did at least. Curious Emily walked across the street, to see what was in the box. She was not surprised when she realized it was a bunch of nothing. Old books and dolls. But Emily was startled when she was broken from her thoughts by an angelic yet raspy voice.

"Hey! You can have anything you want. It's junk that was in my room. My name is Maya by the way Maya St. Germain." The petite girl said.

Emily was taken aback by her beauty from her small yet fit frame, to her deep brown eyes, mocha skin and wavy hair.

Maya laughed a sweet laugh breaking Emily from her trance. She blushed "Oh, no I was just looking these used to belong to my friend her name was Alison."

Maya just shook her head, not really curious about the girl that used to live in her house. She was more curious about the girl infront of her. "OK..." she said.

Emily then blushed again realizing she forgot to say her name. "Oh! I'm sorry my name is Emily, Emily Fields."

Maya laughed and took Emily's outstretched hand and shook .

Both girls jumped a little when they felt a shock run through their bodies, when they touched.

Maya released Emily's hand and smiled "Would you mind helping me with these last few boxes. My parents left out to go and get some food. "

"Sure!" Emily said. Maybe a bit to eager.

Once the girls were done moving the boxes. They sat on Maya's new bed. Emily was looking a bit nervous unsure if she should leave or stay. She had to admit that she did want to get to know Maya a bit more. But luckily for her Maya asked a question.

"So... whats it like in Rosewood does anything exciting happen.?"

Emily laughed "Not really the towns pretty small, everyone gets along. But it can be exciting if you know the right people."

Maya smirked "So.. are you my right person? "

Emily was unaware if Maya was asking a real question or just flirting? "Depends, what do you like?" Emily surprised her and Maya both by her response. But Maya played along trying to be serious.

"Well I would say I am artistic, I like art and music"

Emily was impressed "What do you play?"

"You name it, I can play it. So what do you do?

"Well I swim."

Maya countered "Well I'm not sure if your my person then that sounds a bit boring." Maya stated winking.

Emily was thinking of something smart to say back, but she was interrupted by what she believed was Maya's mom.

"Well, well well Maya your already making friends." She smiled at Emily and out stretched her hand. " Hello, I am Mrs. St. Germain"

Emily shook her hand "Nice to meet you I am Emily, I stay right across the street."

"Well that is good to know, you and Maya can spend alot of time together. I brought food. Why don't you stay for dinner."

Maya winked at Emily and smiled a huge smile when her mom said that. "Uhh, sure I'm sure my mom won't mind"

"Great, well then follow me."

They all walked down and enjoyed dinner. Mrs. St. Germain asked alot of questions, but Emily was having fun just because Maya was there.

(Present Day)

Carmen interrupts "OK first of all this girl doesn't sound very exciting ." She laughs

Emily slaps her arm as she grabs her towel. "The exciting part happens after dinner. She walked me outside and we kissed, not long just brief on the lips. But that's when I knew, I felt it, that's when I knew she was the one."

"So.. you love her?"

"More than anything, but right now she is angry with me."

Carmen looks at Emily confused with her legs dangling in the pool. "Why, who could be angry at you?"

Emily smirks not because something was funny though "Trust me she has a reason to be mad."

Carmen just looks at Emily hoping she will continue "Well, are you gonna tell?"

"Oh yea sorry." So Emily starts from the beginning with Paige, making sure not to skip a single detail.
