Riley knew something was going on
The whole car ride home had been very silent and both her brother and best friend seemed very tense.
As soon as they got home the girls rushed into Riley's room and as soon as Riley shut the door she started asking questions
"Okay what's going on?" Riley demands
"What do you mean?" Maya asks playing clueless
Riley gives her a look "Come on peaches you and Josh have been acting werd since we left the party"
Maya sighs and tells her what happened with Josh and Sophie
"Oh my gosh" is all Riley can say
"I know" Maya says
"Do you think they actually did it?" Riley asks more to herself and then shakes her head "No I don't even wanna know the answer to that" she cringes
Maya stays silent not wanting to know the answer either
"So you okay?" Riley asks her best friend
Maya nods "Yeah I'm fine" she then decides to change the subject
"So what about you?" Maya asks with a grin
"What about me?" Riley asks trying to avoid looking at the blonde
"You know what I mean, you and Lucas seemed pretty cozy" she teased
"We were just talking"
"Outside, alone"
Riley blushes and looks away " Nothing happened"
"But you wished something did" Maya asks
"We should go to bed" Riley changes the subject and Maya decides not to push her any further.
The girls begin to get ready for bed Riley falls asleep quickly but Maya can't seem to fall asleep, she just lays there staring at the ceiling finally she decides to get up and get a glass of water.
She exits the room quietly so she does not wake Riley, Once she gets to the kitchen she finds someone already there at the table
"Hey" Josh says as he sees the blonde enter the kitchen
"Hey, can't sleep either?" she asks
"Nope" he answers and looks down at his glass of water, Maya grabs her own glass and isn't sure if she should stay or go back to the room. She decides to just head back to the room but then Josh stops her
"I'm really sorry about Sophie"
"It's fine" Is all Maya can say
"No it's not she was way out of line, and she shouldn't have done that to you"
Maya tried to give him a reassuring smile "It's okay, I'm fine really"
They stay silent for a bit till Josh decides to break the silence
"So uh besides that awkward moment did you have a good night" he asks trying to lighten the mood
Maya chuckles "Yeah it was alright, nothing to compare it to"
"Well I'm sure this was the first of many parties" Josh assures
"Yeah I guess"
They stay seated across from each other
"So uh what happened with you and Sophie?" Maya asked curiously
Josh shrugs "I don't know we just drifted apart. We had nothing in common"
"Well I could have told you that" Maya teases "I mean she didn't even know who Moorhead was"
"I know right" Josh laughs
"And when she got you that ugly red shirt"
Josh winces "Ugh I hated that shirt"
"And yet you still wore it" she points
"Only cause she guilt me into it"
"She thought it went with your skin tone" she mimics in a very girly voice making Josh laugh
"I still have no idea what that means" he says
They continue laughing . The laughs die down and they are left just staring at each other
"So how's your portfolio going?" Maya finally asks
"It's good I finally finished"
"Really thats cool, I would like to see it sometime"
"Really?" he smiles. None of his friends were all that interested in what he did so it was nice to talk to someone who was actually interested.
"Yeah, of course"
"Well if I show you my photos you show me more of your drawings"
"Really?"Maya says and Josh nods
"Okay deal" Maya smiles "Well, it's late I should get to bed"
Josh looks at the clock and sees it is 2 in the morning. "Yeah It's pretty late"
"Well I guess I'll see you in the morning" Maya says as she gets up and begins to head back to Riley's room. Josh watches her leave
"Sweet dreams Maya" he says
