Part Eight
***** (Maria POV)
Maria walked into the school halls ways and literally bumped into Isabel.
"Oh sorry Isabel." Maria muttered, Isabel was about to say something snotty but remembered what she promised Michael.
"That's alright Maria. . .listen I wanted to apoligize for being such a. . .a" Isabel looked for the right word.
"B*tch?" Maria asked raising an eyebrow, Isabel looked at Maria startled.
"Yeah, um. . .did you want to go out to lunch today? You, me, Liz and Tess. . .we could get to know each other. My car finally got here so I could drive." Isabel asked quietly, this time Maria was the one to look startled. Maria looked closely at Isabel, Isabel was looking down at her shoes and Maria smiled.
"Sure, let's go find Liz and Tess now. We could use a lunch without the guys." Maria said, Isabel looked up and smiled.
"Okay." Isabel said, the two girls started down the hall not seeing Michael watching them from his locker.
*********(Michael POV)
Michael walked into the school and looked everywhere for Maria. Finally he decided to go to his locker and see if she would pass by. Sure enough there she came down the hall, Michael was about to go to her when she bumped into Isabel. Michael held his breath when Isabel got an icy look on her face, but relief washed over him when she smiled at Maria. The two girls talked for a couple minutes then walked down the hall together talking and smiling like best friends.
"This is good." Michael said to himself.
"Talking to yourself again?" Max asked, Michael turned and looked at his brother.
"Shut up Maxwell." Michael said, the two went to class.
*********(Maria POV)
"So you had to wear uniforms?" Maria asked with wide eyes, Isabel nodded her head.
"Were they at least cute?" Tess asked, Isabel shook her head.
"Wow, thank god we don't have that." Liz put in.
"I know they were the grossest things in the world." Isabel said putting another fry in her mouth. The girls decided to go to the Crashdown for lunch, they all sat in one of the booths while Isabel told them about New York.
"So you guys wanna go to a movie tonight?" Isabel asked
"Sure." Liz said nodding
"Okay, Maria give me one of yours fries." Tess said taking one of Maria's fries before Maria could answer.
"Sounds good to me, but do you think the boys can handle it?" Maria asked, the girls all laughed.
"So what's this Alex like?" Isabel asked
"Oh Alex, we've known him since we were little. Best friend. He's sweet, caring, and really funny." Liz said taking some of Tess's fries.
"He plays a guitar, he's thinking of starting a band called the Whits." Tess said taking more of Maria's fries.
"He's a little taller than Michael and Max, short spiked brown hair and brown eyes." Maria finished as she took some of Liz's fries.
"Sounds like a cool guy, so is he seeing anyone?" Isabel asked
"No." All three girls answered at once, as they continued taking fries from each other. Isabel watched them and shook her head as she started to laugh, the three girls looked at her confused.
"What?" They all asked as she continued to laugh.
******(Michael POV)
Michael looked everywhere for Maria during lunch, finally he went to the table that held Max and Kyle.
"Where are the girls?" Michael asked, both boys shrugged.
"Why?" Max asked taking some of Kyle's chips.
"I wanted to talk to Maria." Michael answered as he took some of Max's chips.
"You going to hurt her?" Kyle asked getting protective, Michael looked at Kyle with big eyes.
"Are you serious?" Michael asked
"Yes." Kyle replied.
"Never." Michael said as he got up and ran over to where the girls were walking.
"Hey Maria can we talk?" Michael asked, the girls stopped laughing and Maria nodded. The two stood quietly watching Isabel, Tess and Liz walked over to Max and Kyle, who were still taking each other's lunches.
"Can you meet me tonight at the garage at eight?" Michael asked nervous for some reason.
"Sure. Why?" Maria asked tilting her head to the side. Michael knew that when she did that she was concerned.
"Nothing, this is just important to me if your there that's all." Michael said, Maria stared at him for a few seconds. The bell rang.
"Okay, I'll be there." Maria said smiling a little.
"I have to go to class." Maria said, she started to walk away but Michael grabbed her arm and pulled her back. Maria turned her head and Michael's lips came crashing down on her's. Maria turned fully around and kissed him deeper, finally they pulled away.
"See ya tonight." Maria said smiling, she gave him one last kiss and walked to class. Michael stood there for a minute smiling a little as he watched her meet up with Tess. He saw David watch her and Michael felt anger go through him, he looked back at Maria and decided he needed to talk to her about the short skirt she was wearing. 'Not a good thing for any other guy to look at but me.' Michael thought to himself before he started for class.
