A/N: Went to the 1D concert in Toronto on the 2st and was front row at the 5SOS acoustic show 1st, so this week was eventful. How you guys doing? Life is lovely. If any of the questions you guys asked are not answered in this chapter, let me know and I'll make sure to let you know where the story's headed.
Chapter 2: Yes? No? Maybe?
"Hello Mrs. Serendipity" Hanna whispers to the 2 girls beside her, earning a giggle and exploding fist bump for the girls.
The laughter seems to gain the attention of the distraught raven haired girl, who has been staring at their new house guest for the past 5 minutes, bringing her back to her senses and causing her to move out of the doorway to let their new guest in.
Maya awkwardly shuffles into the room, dropping her bags and luggage in the corner beside her and taking in her view.
The room was about the size of a large high school class room. To the immediate left, 2 doors hung open revealing a marble tiled bathroom and the other revealing a shelf stocked walk in closet. Near the back of the room on opposite sides laid 2 queen sized beds, both accompanied by night stands, which were both currently being occupied by a brunette and a blonde. In between the 2 beds sat a computer and work desk. On the right side of the room were 2 dressers, a fully stocked bookshelf and a closed door that leads to another room. There were multiple fancy, expensive looking paintings on the wall hung over the floral wall paper and a rather large golden chandelier hung from the ceiling in the middle of the room.
"Emily Fields" Maya's eye wandering was put to a halt when the tall, caramel skinned beauty extending a welcoming hand. Maya grabs the soft hand, jumping slightly at the electricity felt when the two hands united.
"That's, Aria" Emily says pointing to the vertically challenged brunette sitting on the bed. Aria offered a 'hello' which Maya responded.
"That is Spencer" Emily gestures towards the hazel eyed skyscraper sprawled out across the floor.
" And that's Hanna" Emily says pointing to the blue eyed blond sitting on the other bed who surprises everyone by getting up off the bed, launching herself towards the new short brunette and trapping her in a hug.
Maya gasps, surprised by the blonde's actions but never the less, returns the hug. "Hi" Hanna says releasing the girl and staring at her, standing barely a foot away.
"So what's your name newbie" she asks
"Uh Maya" Maya shutters out, slightly intimidated by the blond.
"Hmm, Maya" Hanna ponders "I like that" she takes a step back before turning around making her way to the back of the room. "So this is your bed" she says pointing to the bed on her right. "You can put your stuff in the red dresser and on the left side of the closet." Hanna continues to inform. "If you ever get lost or need anything at all Emily's the nice one, I'm sure she'll be happy to help." Hanna smiles sweetly at Maya, knowing Emily is throwing dagger stares at her from her place at the door.
"Actually now that you mention it I was hoping to get a guide to this orientation presentation I have in about 20 minutes" Maya says, turning around towards Emily, away from the enormous grins that have found a place on the other 3 girls' faces. "I mean, if you don't mind" she asks innocently.
"Oh no, she doesn't mind at all, " Spencer interjects, getting up from her place on the floor and moving towards the darker girls.
"Ya, it's not like she has anything better to do" Hanna adds
"You to kids have fun, and don't stay out to late" Aria finishes as the 3 push the 2 out the door, ignoring the objections heard.
"Check" Spencer starts
"And" Aria adds
"Mate" Hanna finishes as the 3 girls lean against closed door in triumph.
"So, Han, I think you can cross that off your list" Aria remarks sending the group into a laughing fit.

A cute tan couple taking a stroll around campus, is how any normal person would describe Maya and Emily as they walked. But through the eyes of the RP students, the pair symbolized so much more. Maya and Emily feel hundreds of pairs of eyes stare as they continue their journey to the auditorium. Emily remains unfazed by the stares while Maya remains visibly uncomfortable.
"You get used to it" Emily ends the silence that had enveloped the two.
"What" Maya responds, slightly frazzled as she pulls her focus out of her own head.
"The stares" Emily enlightens "You get used to it"
"Why are they staring in the first place" Maya questions, confused as to why they are so interesting to those around them.
"New year, new students. Me and my friends are the most interesting things at this school. People just like to stare" Emily shrugs.
"Oh, I see. So I'm rooming with the plastics"
Emily giggles at the comment. "This is not Mean Girls and we are definitely not the plastics." Emily re-affirms "We're just...well known"
"DAMN EM, you best be hitting that" A boy sitting under a tree in a RP varsity jacket yells with a 'YEA' echo from his fellow varsity's.
Emily flips off the group of boys causing them to all fawn hurt.
"Come on Em, we all know you get more pussy than all of us combined" the boy says, referring to the other guys around.
"Go suck a dick Ben" Emily says to the boy, grabbing Maya's hand and speed walking down the sidewalk.
"I would say the same to you but it seems you like sucking on something else these days!" Ben yells after the girls.
After about 3 minutes of light jogging, the pair stop in front of a big building marked 'Auditorium'. They stand in silence for a minute, Maya staring at Emily and Emily staring at the ground.
"You wanna talk about it" Maya says, breaking the silence.
"What" Emily says, pulling herself out of her thoughts.
"That guy, whatever he was saying, you wanna talk about it" Maya clarifies.
Both inwardly smile at the realization this exact thing had happened earlier with swapped positions.
"Uhh, no it's ok. My ex just doesn't take rejection well. You need me to pick you up when this is done?" Emily asks, desperately wanting to change the subject.
Maya catches on and doesn't push "Yea, sure, if you don't mind"
"No, I don't mind. Like Hanna said I have nothing"
"So I'll see you later?"
"Yea see you later"
The pair stand there awkwardly for a minute.
"You gonna go inside?" Emily questions
"You gonna give me my hand back" Maya inquires, starring down at their intertwined fingers.
"Oh Shit, sorry" Emily responds, releasing Maya's hand and red replacing the tan on her face.
"It's alright, I didn't mind" Maya smirks, slowly stepping towards the entrance of the building. "Bye Emily" she says, slipping into the door before Emily has a chance to respond.
"Bye" Emily whispers, a grin slowly finding its way onto her face as she spins around and begins walking back to the dormitories.

"Ok, so should we focus on party planning, prank planning or boyfriend planning first" Hanna says, plopping down on the beanie chair, observing her list.
"Well Han, as hard as this may be for you to hear, this is school so I was going to focus on actually learning. You know, since we're graduating and kinda need to get into a college to get somewhere in life and not end up as a bunch of hobos on the street" Spencer's voice of reasoning rings around the room.
"Oh please Spence, your parents have more money than the president, you could have dropped out of school in grade 2 and still be living like Kim Kardashian for the rest of your life" Hanna remarks.
Spencer crosses her arms over her chests and rolls her eyes at the blonde. Just as she was going to respond, Emily comes bursting through the door, trying desperately to remove the smile that seems to be permanently plastered on her face to no avail.
"Thank God you're back, it's your turn to watch the kids" Aria says, moving into a sitting position on the bed.
Spencer narrows her eyes in Aria's direction. "I am not your infant"
"Tell that to your demeanor" Aria shoots back.
Spencer sticks out her tongue at Aria then turns to look away.
"And point proven" Aria says triumphantly.
"Wow, it's like coming home to a kindergarten class" Emily says, closing the door behind her and making her way to the bed to sit beside Hanna.
"Pretty much, but you love us anyways" Hanna grins "So how was your walk with Maya?" Hanna asks, wiggling her eyebrows up and down.
The inquiry seemed to gain the focus of everyone in the room.
"What do you mean? I just walked her to the auditorium" Emily answers only receiving silence and raised eyebrows from her friends. "Seriously, I just walked her there and told her I'd pick her up" she affirms
"Hmm, so you offered to pick her up?" Hanna asks
"Well since you guys drafted me to be her babysitter I couldn't let our little duckling get lost on her way home, now could I" Emily says.
"Aww, guys, she already has a cute pet name for her new girlfriend" Hanna comments, pouting out her bottom lip and looking at her other to friends.
Emily rolls her eyes at the comment and begins making her way to the door on her right.
"I'm gonna go take a shower" she says, retreating into her room.
"Yea, we get it, gotta smell fresh for your girl" Hanna yells after her as Emily closes the barrier between them.
The 3 girls left in Spencer's room burst out into laughter as the one in the other room's mind is being bombarded with hundreds of questions.

"Em" the blond says shaking her raven haired friend. "Em wake up"
"What" Emily says groggily arising from her slumber.
"It's almost 4. Don't you have to go pick up Maya" Hanna asks.
"Oh yea, shit" Emily says, getting out of bed and walking towards the mirror to fix her hair. When satisfied with the results, she begins making her way towards the door, being followed by Hanna.
"Mind if I come with, I don't really think I have the energy for another duel with Spencer right now" Hanna asks.
"Yea, sure. Let's go" Emily says as both girls exit the dorm room.
The blond and brunette journey across campus, being stopped multiple times by friends they hadn't seen over the summer and new students who bombarded the girls with questions.

"You sure she's coming? It has been like 20 minutes. I'm pretty sure we can find the dorms on our own" the beanie wearing brunette says to the short girl beside him as he adjusts the bag he's wielding over his shoulder.
"Yes I'm sure. She said she would and I believe her" Maya responds confidently.
"You've known the girl for less than 24 hours, you are obviously trust to easily. But I'll take your word for it kid" the long haired brunette smirks.
"See, she's right there" Maya points to the approaching caramel skinned figure " And please don't call me kid" she says just as the pair reach her.
"Hey Maya you uh ready to go" Emily says, eyeing the boy standing next to her. He stands awkwardly staring at his shoes under the brunette's gaze.
"This is Caleb" Maya interjects the nonverbal interrogation. "He came a little late and missed the tour and needed a little help finding his dorm room" she says politely "If you don't mind" she finishes
"Yea, I'm sure Hanna wouldn't mind showing him to his room, right Han" Emily says, looking at the now wide eyed blond standing behind her.
"That hat is not regulation" Hanna says looking at the scruffy looking boy.
"It's a beanie actually and I'm pretty sure those 6 inch heels aren't regulation either, now are they princess" Caleb throws back with a smirk on his face.
Hanna cocks up an eyebrow, staring at Maya, telepathically saying 'you have a great choice in friends'.
"Sorry about him, he has a thing for nicknames" Maya says apologetically.
"What dorm are you in" Emily interjects, trying to contain the friction.
"Uhh, 124 sub-section C" he says, looking at the paper in his hand.
"Great so Han, you show Caleb to his room and I'll see you at home" Emily says, pushing the 2 in the direction of Caleb's dorm.
"I hate you so much right now" Hanna whispers to Emily as she begins to walk away.
"Love you too" she yells after the blonde receiving a middle finger in return. Emily giggles slightly before turning her attention back to Maya. "So, you hungry?" she asks as the 2 walk away from the auditorium.
