Hi guys,

Sorry for the long wait, I hope you enjoy this chapter x

Maya's POV:

Two days.

I have to endure two days with the person I hate the most.

As you can tell, this was in no way my idea. But my mom's persuasive words lured me into believing that maybe this could turn out to be a good thing. So stupidly I agreed to spending a weekend with Saffron, in the hope that we could improve our relationship.

Bad mistake.

"Bye girls, have fun. But not too much fun, alright?" My mom warns us, as Calvin lugs two suitcases out the front door.

"Of course Katy, I can't wait to spend the weekend with Maya. Thank you so much for letting us do this!"

Wow, she's really laying it on thick. I resist the urge to roll my eyes as she says this, if only they knew what she was really like.

We both plaster on smiles, assuring them that we'll behave as they leave. Saffron's smile drops as soon as the door shuts, but is quickly replaced for a smirk.

"I hope you're not going to remain dressed like that" her voice is venomous as she scans my outfit up and down. I tug at my sweatpants suddenly feeling cautious.

"What does it matter? it's only the two of us" I point out. The elaborate dress and shoes she's wearing seem more ridiculous to wear in the house, than my sweatpants.

She pulls her hair over her shoulder, and her smirk widens "Don't say I didn't warn you"

I sigh and turn on the TV, ready for a lazy weekend in. After 10 minutes the door bell rings, and Saffron rushes to answer it.

I turn to see who it is, and to my absolute horror a swarm of people from my school walk in- including Riley.

For a moment I can't comprehend what's happening, until I notice Saffron taking out stacks of red solo cups.

She's throwing a party.

Anger. Anger takes control before any other emotion has the chance to. I push through the crowds of people, and grab Saffron's arm, leading her to my bedroom.

"How could you? Mom and Calvin trusted us, and you've gone and betrayed them" My voice drips with rage, and I can feel my body shaking. I never thought that she was this obnoxious.

"Get real Maya, did they honestly think that two 16 year olds would sit around all weekend, and talk?" She dusts off her dress and applies more lipstick before sashaying away.

I sit on my bed and run my fingers through my hair in stress. My mind is so absorbed in thoughts that I nearly miss the fact that I'm still in my sweatpants. Looking through my closet is useless, because I already know that I have nothing to wear. Great- yet another think to worry about.

"Need some help?" I look up to see Riley leaning against my door frame, and in her hand is a beautiful navy blue dress. "It's for you" she tells me.

"Thank you so much Riles, what would I do without you?"

"Probably go into a deep depression" she teases

She turns her back and I chuck a pillow at her.

"That hurt" she complains, only causing me to throw another one at her "I will not hesitate to return this dress" she warns me playfully.

But before I can react, I'm being knocked off my bed with a pillow.

After 15 minutes I'm ready. I glance at myself in the mirror, tugging at my dress to increase the length.

"It's fine Maya, you look beautiful" Riley reassures me.

I give her a weak smile, although I'm still a bit wary about the shortness of the dress.

"The length's fine, trust me" She says, detecting my evident uneasiness "Now come on, let's go join the party!

She grabs my hand and drags me into the living room, which is over filled with people.

We dance together for a while, until Lucas (her boyfriend) asks her to dance, leaving me to dance alone. I search for Farkle and Isadora, so I won't look like so much of a loner, but their already dancing together. My eyes travel to the sofa, which appears empty, until I see a mop of curly dark hair- Josh.

He looks uncomfortable and his eyes dart across the room, as if he is looking for someone. He then notices me and smiles, but instead of smiling back, I find myself walking towards him.

"Hey" I say, as I sit beside him.

"Hey, Maya. Great party by the way, it seems like everyone's really enjoying themselves"

Everyone but him, I can't help but think.

"Are you enjoying yourself Josh?" I ask him.

His smile falters slightly, but he seems grateful that I asked "Parties are not really my thing, but Saffron said it's a rule that boyfriend's attend their girlfriend's parties"

His eyes meet mine, and I look away doing my best to prevent a blush.

"What do you enjoy then?"

His eyes light up as I ask him this, he must have a real passion.

"Art. No doubt about it, although it's kind of developed into photography over the years" he tells me, his blue eyes sparkling.

I can't help but smile at this, my head is already filled with all the art related topics we could talk about.

"Art's my passion too. It's cheesy, but I feel like I can do anything when I'm painting or drawing"

We discuss art for a little more, which reminds me of my room.

"My rooms kind of like a blank canvas right now, but I have no idea what to do with it. And I've been thinking, that it would help to have another artists perspective. Basically what I'm asking is... would you like to help me with my room?" I ask him.

"That would be awesome. We could tour the city for ideas, you can always find inspiration within city life..."

I don't hear the rest of what he's saying, because I'm too busy, trying to control the kingdom of butterflies fluttering around in my stomach.

Thank you guys for all your follows, favourites and comments, they really do mean the world.

Until next time,
