Claimer: I totally own Pretty Little Liars. They are mine. Seriously, ask them, Emily and Maya are sitting on my couch right now.

Disclaimer: Hee Hee! JK, I don't own them, but god I wish I did.

Note from author: sorry I haven't been updating. I got a severe case of writers block and just recently found the cure: glee.

Chapter 6

We walked into the Rainbow Bar, and for once I wasn't scared of having all eyes on us. It was obvious no one else in the club cared either. I looked over to Maya, who was obviously getting antsy with anticipation.

She grabbed my hand and pulled me toward the dance floor. "Lets dance!"

"Maya, I don't dance."

"Come on," she stopped close to the middle of the dance floor, pulling me in by the waist. "It's easy. Just do what feels right."

The bass was pounding as the techno music moved our bodies. She rested her hands behind my neck, mine on her waist. The rest of the club seemed to disappear. After a while, the dancing became natural. Our bodies held contact as we moved against each other. At the end of the song, she pulled me down to where our lips met. As we parted she tugged on my bottom lip wanting more.

A tap on my shoulder pulled me out of my trance. "Emily," My gaze started at her shiny heels and worked it's way up taking in every detail. Lauren had on a black skirt that came up just above the knee. She had on a green top, her hair fell over her shoulders.

"Hey Lauren, you look nice," I blushed and looked at Maya, who was giving the club president a questioning look.

"You guys look great," she looked over to Maya. "I was wondering if I could steal your girlfriend for a dance."

Maya smiled and nodded, pulling her arms from around my neck and giving me one last peck before she walked over to the group.

The song changed to "Fall For You" by Second hand Serenade. I watched Maya leave then turned back to Lauren. She grabbed my hand and spun me around until our bodies touched.

Then I felt it. The same feeling I had with Ben. Like I needed her, but not as much as I needed Maya. But hold your breath because tonight will be the night I will fall for you... Our hand positions were in reverse compared to Maya and I, faces a few inches apart.

"You look really beautiful tonight Emily," she held my gaze with her hazel eyes. "Maya's a very lucky girl." She looked away on the last part. I looked across the room to see Maya's back to us as she talked to the group. I turned back to Lauren, seeing nothing but want in her eyes.

"Lauren, we can't..." I was cut off when our lips met. Closing my eyes, the kiss was nice, but nothing like Maya's. I pulled away after a moment, looking over to Maya. She was storming out the door. I ran after her hearing Lauren call from behind.

Maya was waking down the the side walk past the bar. "Maya," I called once I was a few feet away. She turned around, arms crossed, and a tear streaked face. I reached out to give her a hug, but she turned away. Lauren ran out side. "Emily I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

"Oh please!" Maya yelled as she turned to keep walking.

"Maya, stop walking away." I grabbed her arm as she turned looking at me with hurt eyes.

"Don't tell me you didn't see this coming. Don't look at me in the eye and say that none of this is you're fault."

I looked at Lauren then grabbed one of Maya's hands. "I'm not saying I'm completely innocent, okay? Maya, I would never do anything to hurt you."

She shook her head still holding my gaze. "Then why did you kiss her?" she said in almost a whisper. She pulled her hand away, making her way to her car.

"Maya don't leave." I call out once she got in. The car pulled off and zoomed down the street. I couldn't believe she left. I sat on the edge of the side walk as tears ran down my cheeks.

Lauren walked over resting a hand on my back. I shook my head looking up at her. "I want you to know I'm in love with Maya. Nothing's ever going to change that."

She nodded, "I know."

I stood up giving her a hug. "Thanks for understanding."

" I shouldn't have kissed you. I see how close you two are, I wouldn't want to mess that up." She looked down at her feet.

I pulled her into a hug. Checking at my phone, 12:52. "I have to see Maya."

"Can I give you a ride?"

"That would be great, thanks Lauren." She nudged my shoulder as we walked to her gray Subaru.

The ride back was filled with meaningless conversation. I couldn't get the image of Maya crying out of my head. She meant the world to me, and to see her hurting killed me. About 30 min later we rolled up to her house. "Thanks again Lauren."

"No problem, anything for a beautiful girl." Her smile went away when I glared at her. "Okay, okay. No more flirting."

I gave her a hug. "Bye Lauren." I bolted out of the car.

I ran up to the door, not hesitant to knock. After a few moments Maya slowly opened the door. "May I come in?"

She walked away from the door towards the kitchen. I closed the door behind me then followed. "Where's your mom?" We were on separate sides of the kitchen.

"She working late at the hospital," she said plainly. The silence carried until it became unbearable. "Would you like something to drink?" she opened the fridge. "We have pop, juice, or if you just want..."
"No," I walked over, taking her hand in mine. "I'm not thirsty. We have to talk Maya."

She blinked back tears. "Why did you kiss her?"

"I'm not going to say it's not my fault. I lead her on, without thinking about what it might do to us. I care about you too much to see you hurting.

She looked away as tears started to fall more freely. I pulled her into a hug, and held her for until her crying subsided. I took her hand and sat down at the kitchen table, pulling her onto my lap. My hands went up to wipe away her tears. "I... I love you Maya."

Ending note: I'm debating on continuing this story. If I do, next chapter will probably be the last, and there will contain sex. :). so I should maybe change the rating to M. Please review! it keeps me motivated, and post your ideas of where you think this story should go.
