Maya stood there in shock as she stared at the police officers in front of her. "I'm sorry," she apologized. "Come again?" she asked in disbelief. The police officer opened his mouth again to speak, but Maya cut him off. "You know what? Never mind. I don't see a warrant which means you're not coming in here. Now if you'll excuse me I have a baby to put back to sleep."

Maya closed the door in the officers faces and walked a crying Aiden back to his room. Bouncing him up and down Maya gritted her teeth in anger. "Daddy is in big trouble Aiden," she whispered as she paced back and forth. "Big trouble."

Josh walked into the apartment with a pounding headache. He worked incredibly hard today and literally all he wanted to do was hug his girlfriend. "Maya?" he called out softly, trying not to wake Aiden. "Maya?"

Josh walked into his and Maya's bedroom and saw Maya sitting there with only a lamp on. "What's going on?" Josh asked. "is everything alright."

Maya stood silently and opened a drawer. She reached into the drawer and pulled out a large plastic bag filled with smaller bags that contained a white powder. "Don't tell me this is what I think it is."

"Bags of sugar?" Josh joked.

Maya hurled the bag at Josh and spoke in a low tone. "Now is not the time to be a smart ass." She took a step towards Josh and narrowed her eyes at him. "Are you using? Or are you dealing? Its one or the other Josh."

Josh sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "Maya I-"

"You can what Josh?" she asked angrily. "Explain! That's rich because I don't know any good, logical reason for you to have cocaine in our apartment!"

Josh clutched the bag in his hands and sighed. "Maya," he began. He looked up at her and sighed again. "The job just isn't giving us enough income. I'm trying to make ends meet."

Maya scoffed and pushed her long hair out of her face. "This isn't the way Josh." Josh stared at her and didn't say anything. "We have a baby. What the hell do you think would happen if you got caught? You would be gone! Aiden wouldn't have his father!" she yelled.

"Will you quit screaming!" Josh hissed. "You are going to wake him up!"

"Then let him wake up!" Maya yelled while flailing her arms up in the air. "I am angry Josh! Two police officers came here today asking to search our apartment!"

"Well what do you want me to do about it huh? I am providing for our son!" Josh rebutted.

"Then find another way to do it!" Maya screamed.

Suddenly, Aiden's frail cry was heard from the teenagers' room. The room was tensely silent. "You woke him up," Josh muttered.

Maya dug into a drawer and pulled out an already opened box of Marlboro. "Yeah I did, and you're the one who is gonna put him back to sleep."

Josh watched as Maya lifted a cigarette out of the box and placed it between her lips. "Since do you smoke?" Josh asked. "Aren't you breastfeeding?"

Maya slipped the box into her bag and picked up her house keys. "No," she mumbled. She slipped on her shoes and walked past Josh. "I'm going out," she muttered.

Josh watched Maya as she slipped past him and through the doorway. "Where the hell are you going? We aren't done here and besides Aiden's crying."

Maya turned around and looked at her boyfriend with a dark look in her eyes. "Like I said you're gonna have to get him because right now I'm done."

"You." Kiss. "Are." Kiss. "So." Kiss. "Sexy."

The kiss became deeper as Charlie whispered against Missy's lips. Missy giggled against Charlie's lips as she kissed him back intensely. "Why thank you," she laughed as Charlie moved down to her neck. "Mhm," she moaned.

"Sh," Charlie whispered. "You don't want to wake up Aaron."

Missy nodded and brought Charlie's lips back to hers. "Are you sure you want to do this?" she asked. "We've been doing really good so far and I just want to make sure that you're okay introducing this back into our relationship."

Charlie kissed Missy's forehead and smiled. "I'm very sure."

Missy nodded and smiled. "Okay let's do this."

They started to kiss and slowly remove each other's clothes. The room was hot and heavy as Missy sat there without a shirt. Abruptly, they heard a knock at the front door. Charlie groaned and got out of bed without a shirt. "You've got to be kidding me." Charlie walked out to the front door and opened it as the warm summer night air hit his naked chest. "Maya?" he answered. He leaned his head towards his bedroom and called out Missy's name. "Missy! It's Maya."

Maya heard the sound of footsteps and saw Missy walk out while pulling a shirt over her head. "Maya what are you doing here? Its almost eleven."

Maya looked at the two and frowned. "Yeah," she stuttered. "I'm sorry." She looked between them and shook her head. "It looks like I interrupted something. I'll just talk to you tomorrow Missy. Bye."

Maya turned on her heel and walked away from their house. Charlie closed the door softly and looked over at Missy. "Did you smell cigarette smoke when she came to the door?"

Missy licked her lips and nodded her head. "Yeah I did."

Maya took a drag of her cigarette and released a shaky breath as she felt some of her stress release itself from her body. "You know smoking kills," a voice informed her as they approached her.

Maya looked to her left and rolled her eyes. "Whatever," she mumbled. "What are you guys doing here?"

Zay snatched the cigarette out of Maya's hand. "Missy called me and brought me here."

Maya looked at Missy out of the corner of her eye and scoffed. "Look, if this is about me interrupting your sexy time with Charlie last night I-"

"No," Missy interrupted. "Its not." She took a good look at Maya and noticed the bags underneath her eyes. "I smelled the smoke on you last night." She cocked her head to the side and frowned. "Did you go home last night?"

Zay noticed the bags too. "Yeah," he hesitated. "Did you?"

Maya scoffed and narrowed her eyes at them. "Of course I did."

Zay sighed and looked at the ground. "Well did you go to sleep last night?" Maya didn't answer. "Does Josh know that you smoke?"

"Well he certainly found out last night."

"Maya what's going on?" Missy asked. "This isn't like you."

"Well it is!" Maya yelled. Maya looked at her phone for the time. "Look, I gotta go. Just leave me alone alright? I'm fine. The cigs take the edge off."

Maya walked away and left Missy and Zay standing there. "I'm glad you called me," Zay breathed. "I thought she quit these habits a long time ago."

Missy frowned. "What do you mean?"

"This isn't the first time Maya has been like this." Zay looked over at Missy. "But this time its way worse."
