RandomWriter23: Well that was...interesting, to say the least :P But seriously, James needs to not fuck this up. And yes, totally! Kreyna and Jaya ftw! :)

"That was so not cool!" James threw his hands up in the air after I got my fifth- that's right, fifth- strike in a row.

I smirked at him and pretended to buff my nails on my shirt. "You're just jealous of my skills, pretty boy. I told you I was gonna win."

"Sure. Alright, M&M, it's so fucking on right now. I'm gonna win this."

"Hafta catch up first!" I teased in a sing song voice.

James caught me by my waist and spun me around. I laughed as he stopped. I turned around in his arms and we were so close I could smell his cologne. James stared at my face intently, our eyes locked. I felt the corners of my mouth turn up in a smile. "Maya..."

"Girls,

We run this mother...yeah!"

I blushed and looked down. This is a fucking perfect time for my phone to ring. I was about to get some Maslow! James laughed and let me go. "You'd better get that," he chuckled.

"Right." I stepped away and answered my phone. "What?"

"Well hello to you, too," I heard Reyna say.

I sighed. "Sorry, kiddo. There's just um, stuff going on. What's up?"

"KENDALL ASKED ME TO BE HIS GIRLFRIEND AND MOM SAID IT'S OK MAYA I'M DATING KENDALL OHMYGOD OHMYGOD OHMYGOD!" she shrieked.

I smiled widely. "That's amazing!" Kendall and Reyna have been hanging out every day of the past week. I'm so happy for her. "Tell me all about it when I get home."

"Will do," she said breathlessly. "Now I can tell you're dying to get back to James, so have fun!"

Reyna hung up and I laughed. God, she knows me well.

I made my way back to James. "Sorry about that. It was Reyna."

James smiled at me. "She told you, huh?"

I nodded. "Yeah. I guess Kendall consulted you first?"

"Yup. So uh, Beyoncé...interesting. Women's empowerment song. Didn't peg you for that."

"Oh shut up!" I shoved his shoulder. "I really like Beyoncé. That's all, you dumbass."

"Mmhm. Sure."

I rolled my eyes. "Just go bowl."

"You mean win?" he teased.

I smirked at him and crossed my arms. "Really? You think you can beat me? Look at your score, James."

"Ha. Just watch it go up, hon. Imma come back and win this."

"You can talk the talk, but can you-"

"Bowl the bowl?" he finished for me with a smirk.

I laughed. "Sure, I guess so. Now go!"

He stuck his tongue out at me as he grabbed the 16 pound ball, the heaviest one. Ooh isn't he so strong.

James smoothly flicked his wrist and ended up finally getting a strike. He raised his arms in the air triumphantly. "Fuck yeah, one for Maslow!"

I raised an eyebrow as I passed him and picked up my lucky ball. I bowled down the lane and got another strike. I imitated his motion and shouted, "Fuck yeah, SIX FOR MITCHELL!"

He rolled his eyes as I walked by. I patted his shoulder. "Ha. Sucks to suck."

James winked at me. "Don't tempt me."

I covered my mouth with my hand after he turned to go back to the lane. Did he...really just say that? I shook my head to clear my thoughts. No, I think I took it wrong. But how do you take that in any other way?

Ugh, James, stop confusing me.

We finished our third game an hour later and tallied up the scores.

I smiled at James. "Not bad, Maslow, but ya still didn't beat me."

James sighed and laughed as we handed our shoes back and made our way to his car. He draped an arm over my shoulder in the parking lot. "I'll win next time."

"So there's going to be a next time?" I asked to be sure.

"Well, yeah. I really like hanging out with you, Maya."

"Me too," I said with a smile as I processed what he said. So this wasn't a date then...

Awesome.

James dropped me back home and gave me a hug before leaving. I waved to him as he pulled out of the driveway. I rubbed my face before opening the door and going inside. "Mom? Dad?" I called.

"Up here!"

I made my way upstairs and found my parents in their room. "How'd it go?" Mom asked with a smile.

"It was fun."

"Did you beat him?" Dad teased.

I put my hands on my hips. "Yes, Dad, I did as a matter of fact."

He laughed and nodded. "Well done. By how much?"

"Adam!" Mom laughed and playfully smacked my dad's arm. "Maya, I think you should go to Reyna's room. She's been dying to tell you all about what happened tonight."

"Ok." I went over to them and gave them both a hug and kiss goodnight. I walked down the hallway to Reyna's room and knocked on the door. No answer came, so I opened the door and poked my head in. "Reyn- OHMYGOD REYNA!"

She jumped apart from Kendall and waved to me. "Um...hi Maya!"

I stood in the doorway and crossed my arms. "Alright, Kendall, isn't it time for you to head home?"

Kendall blushed and nodded, then stared at me. "Hold on just a second, Maya. I believe I'm older than you," he smirked.

I raised an eyebrow at him. "And you're dating my little sister. Your point?"

"Goddammit, you win. Goodnight girls." Kendall leaned over and gave Reyna a quick kiss.

"I'll walk you out," she told him.

I grabbed her arm as she walked by. "I'll be in my room. Come get me when you're upstairs."

"Will do." She held Kendall's hand as they walked down and he turned to wave to me. I waved back and couldn't help the smile that played at my lips. I think Reyna's finally found the right one.

REYNA'S POV

I burst out laughing as Kendall and I went down the stairs. "Oh god, that was so awkward!" I giggled.

Kendall laughed. "You're telling me! Thank god you're sister's chill, though."

I smiled and nodded. "Yeah, she's awesome about this stuff. That's only cause she likes you, by the way."

Kendall grinned at me. "Sweet."

I opened the door and stepped out onto the doorstep with him. I bit my lip and looked up at him. "Goodnight, Kendall. Tonight was amazing."

Kendall cupped my face in his hands. "Well thank you for being such an amazing girl." He leaned down and gave me a sweet kiss. "Sleep well, Reyn. See you tomorrow?"

"Definitely," I said breathlessly. "Text me when you get home so I know you're ok."

Kendall winked at me as he opened his door. "Of course. Goodnight, angel."

I wrapped my arms around my torso. "See you tomorrow, Kendall."

He left after blowing me a kiss and I made my way back upstairs to Maya's room. I opened the door and she was sitting at her desk. Maya turned around when she heard the door open. She pointed to her bed. "Sit. Details now."

Oh dear lord, here we go.
