Recap...
"Wait you are leaving?"
"Yeah I am because obviously we were never important." What? How could he say that?
He walked out the door. My heart instantly fell because i was now alone.
...
"Hey."
"Hey."
"So."
"So."
"Why? Why my uncle, Maya?" I looked over at my best friend. Riley Matthews, the girl who had everything.
"I don't know Riley, but what i do know is that I need my best friend. I am scared Riles. I feel all alone here." I start crying. It sucked. My hormones were mixed up. I felt abandoned.
"Maya. I just don't want you to be my Aunt. You know my lil cousin is in you at 17 years old."
"I know. You are so disappointed."
"Maya, I am not disappointed, I am just shocked." I looked up at her face. She was crying as well.
"Why are you crying?"
"Because of how I have treated you. You would never have left me if it was me. I'm sorry."
I hugged her.
"Its okay. Really! You are my best friend! My sister. Ring power?" I asked and we held our fingers together.
She smiled.
"I missed you. You know between school, our boyfriends and everything else we never really see each other." She smiled sadly.
"Yeah. But we could do something now."
"Yeah like what?"
She took my hand and waved her other hand around the bay window.
"Talk."
So we did. I told her everything. Me and Josh. Me and Alek. Me and my baby. We talked bout her and Lucas. She says Missy has been giving him longing looks and flirting with him on occasion, even in front of her.
"How dare she? First Alek! Now Lucas! I wouldn't be surprised if she was pregnant."
"Hey!" She hit my arm playfully.
"Lucas would never cheat." I said sarcastically rolling my eyes.
She laughed,"I am actually kind of scared for you Maya."
"Why? Riles, I am a big girl I can handle myself."
"Its not you exactly. Its my grandparents. See they weren't too happy about my mom and my dad. You are still in high school, Josh is still in college. I know you are turning 18 in two months but this is bad." I totally understood her point. If didnt like the perfect Topanga, then what was left for me.
Then I remembered Josh's words from this morning.
I smiled at the memory because he wasn't going to leave.
"I'm okay." I gave her a reassuring smile. To be honest, it wasn't Josh's parents I was worried about. It was my second parents, Riley's parents. Cory and Topanga I was worried about. I don't think Cory would look at me the same or Josh.
...
Nothing like a late night walk around the city with stars on spotlight and people buzzing around you to make you feel at ease. A bunch of questions flared into my mind. What was going to come of me? Would I really be able to do this? Was I in way over my head? This is another human being.
I drifted to my favorite place. Central Park.
I loved it here at night. The stars at clear view, the breeze gentle. I loved looking out into the trees wondering how the little bugs and animals lived. Were theirs' this complicated?
I really need to talk to Alek. I do love him. He is a great part of my life. He makes me feel different, not the Maya who was once broken but a girl who always hoped.
That was until he cheated on me with Missy. That hurted to tell the truth. Trust me I was never planning on sleeping with him in the near future but I did hope for a near future. So much for hope, huh?
"You do realize its 12:00 right." I jumped. But recovered quickly when I saw it was Josh.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him. He took a seat next to me.
"Funny. I was just about to ask you that. But to answer your question, I came here to think." I chuckled.
"Same. To answer your question at least. Mind telling me what you are thinking?" I looked over at him. He was looking up at the sky.
"The stars are so much brighter in Philadelphia."
"Must be from the pollution here to make it look so dull. I like Paris stars better, actually."
"Yeah-" he trailed off.
"I was thinking about going home for the weekend to tell my parents. Would you like to come since its as much of news from you then me." I smiled, taking his hand. His hand was much bigger than mine but it fit perfectly. He was perfect.
"In this together right?" He brought my hand to his lips.
"Right?"
...
So next chapter is A JOSHAYA ROADTRIP TO PHILLY! I HAVE BEEN AWAITING THIS FOR SO LONG! Anyway tell me what you think. I like knowing so I can do better for my next chapters. I really want to get into this Alek character. Figure him out. How could he cheat on Maya with Missy? Come on now! Missy ain't got nothing on Maya or Riley. Yeah! I didn't see that Rucas situation coming either until i finished writing it. I wanted to put some Rilaya in because what's GMW without THUNDER AND LIGHTENING! Wish Maya and Josh luck with his parents! Gosh wish me luck! Oh and what do you think of Maya doubting her ability to be a mother? I think that issue will be brought up in the next chapter, maybe Mrs. Matthews and Maya will have a one on one together. I wonder how Josh will take it when he finds out. Will he be okay? Or will he be a good Matthews and do everything in his power to get through to Maya? Check out the next chapter of Positively Fine! See ya soon.
