I'm on a roll! Whoo! I've just been really inspired to write more chapter for this story!
You guys voted! Some Lucaya will happen. Not a huge amount, but an amount...
Disclaimer: I don't own GMW but it is my everything (At least until OUAT comes back)
"Thanks for coming down, Riley. I really missed you," Maya smiled as the salon worker massaged her feet.
"Of course, Maya. There is no way I was going to miss your birthday! The three hours here were totally worth it," Riley sighed in relaxation.
"Is Lucas doing anything for your birthday?"
"I dunno. Maybe. A few days ago he did tell me he cares about me."
"Aww... That's sweet," Riley gushed.
"We have a little tradition now. Every two Fridays, we have a little game night. I actually look forward to it."
"Aww... So cute! I'm just glad he was able to take your mind off the incident."
"Me too. But can we just relax Riley? I don't really want to talk about that stuff anymore."
"Whatever the birthday girl wants," Riley shrugged. "I can't wait to give you your presents!"
"Presents? As in, plural?"
"Of course, peaches! Some from me, some from my parents."
"You guys are too much. You know I've grown out of that present stage," Maya referred to the one Christmas where Riley's gift was a coat donation to Maya's 'coat foundation' in Riley's name.
"It doesn't matter. You're getting your gifts whether you like it or not. But you'll love them."
Maya plopped on her bed after her time at the spa with Riley. Apparently, Riley had to go run an errand, but Maya suspected Riley was throwing her a surprise party.
"Knock, knock birthday girl," was heard from outside Maya's door. She sat up and said come in.
"Hey, Cowboy. Did you hear at the watering hole, it's my birthday?" Maya said with a country twang.
"As a matter a fact, I did," Lucas took out a bag from behind him.
"Aww... Lucas. You really didn't have to get me anything."
"Well too bad, cause I already did. Open it," he handed Maya the bag. Maya opened the bag and lifted the paint set Lucas had bought her.
"Oh m'god. Lucas you did not buy me the deluxe art set I said I was going to buy myself."
"I would say I didn't, but lying is bad."
"Thankyouthankyou!" Maya hugged Lucas. "You didn't even have to buy me anything!"
"Well I wanted to."
"Best roommate ever. Now go cause I have to brainstorm how I'm gonna use these paints."
"Don't make a mess!" Lucas shouted as he closed Maya's bedroom door.
"Finally, done." Maya said as she wiped her head of sweat. She had just finished her newest painting with the paints Lucas had gotten her. For some reason, Maya's painting was of a vase of beautiful flowers, half in the shade and half in the sun.
Just as Maya's started cleaning up, her phone pinged with a notification.
'I'll miss you, peaches! I hope you had fun last night! Happy belated bday!" The text from Riley read.
"Thanks for last night, Riles. I had so much fun," Maya read aloud as she typed. As Maya locked her phone she saw a spider making a web from her ceiling to her phone. Maya screamed and threw her phone.
"Maya? What was that scream for?" Lucas burst threw the door.
"Spider!" Maya pointed to what it looked like thin air. Lucas' face contorted into confusion until he saw the spider. He quickly grabbed a piece of paper to put the spider and took the spider out to the hallway to be free.
"Please tell me that was the only thing you screamed about," Lucas said with a little smirk.
"Yes. I almost died," Maya grabbed her chest as she panted. "Spiders are horrifying to me."
"Does the night in shining armor get a thank you?"
"Well if her doesn't leave soon, he'll get a knee to the crotch."
"Not having a knee to the crotch is payment enough," Lucas joked. "Also get ready."
"For what?"
"I'm taking you out for a late birthday treat."
"You don't need to take me out. You already got me amazing paints. Which by the, where put to good use right over there," Maya pointed to her newest painting.
"This is amazing."
"Thanks. Now leave. My idiot roommate just told me he's taking me out and know I have to get ready," Maya pushed Lucas out of her room. "Where are you even taking me anyways?"
"To a little arcade place that I think you'll love."
"Well hurry up then! Don't waste time we could be using at the arcade place!"
Maya rushed to her clothes and picked out a shirt and some jeans. Arcades were always special to Maya because the rare nights Katy got off, she would take Maya to a near by arcade place and stay for hours. Maya had gone there only a few times on her birthday since Katy was almost always working then. And since Maya was so busy for so long, Helping Katy at the diner, Maya hadn't gone to an arcade in years.
She had told Lucas on one of their board game nights. And he apparently remembered.
Okay then. I felt like I wrote Maya a little OOC when Lucas gave her the present. :/ Sorry bout that.
There's your little Lucaya dosing. It'll gradually increase. But as of now, I have to write more chapters for my other story and another one shot one of my readers requested.
Chapters will most likely slow down from here on out. Most likely until I get the one shot out of the way.
Thank you for all the super sweet reviews! You guys always make my day!
Love,
