Listening to Give Me Love Just just to set the mood.

I DO NOT OWN DEGRASSI

MILES' POV

"Olivia was beautiful, and Eric? Well Eric wasn't really happy." I smiled as I continued.

"The first time they met was behind a concert, in an alleyway, on a fire escape. Eric needed to get away and Olivia needed to get in. He gave her two backstage tickets that weren't his to give away. When they got caught, they just ran all night. Two complete strangers who found each other, they never needed to know anything more. So for the first time, Eric felt like he was really happy, like as long as Olivia's smile continued to exist, his hope in true happiness would too, and maybe he already knew that when he first saw her blue eyes. As the months passed, they both fell for each other, and one night, it was just, perfect. They were joking around, suddenly the air got serious, and as the clock ticked, they stared at each other, not uttering a single word communicating through their eyes, and then just like they kissed. They became Olivia & Eric." I smiled.

"What happened next?" Maya was in a listening position.

"One night, they went out for a joy ride even though they weren't old enough to drive. Eric was driving and they got hit. Eric got off easy with a few broken bones. But Olivia? Olivia was strapped to a machine, the doctors told Eric that the machine was giving her life, she was alive, awake, breathing, but one day, Eric's father came by, he never liked Olivia, Unbestknown to them, Olivia listened to their conversation, and then that was it. Olivia pulled the plug. All she left him was a note." I say looking away.

"What was the note?" Maya asked bringing her face closer to mine.

"It said 'It was Enchanting to Meet You, I Owe You an Apology that I Won't be Able to Give.'" I say as she pulls my face to look at her.

"You're stupid if you thought even for a second I would buy your story about different people Eric." She says hugging me.

"I didn't." I say as I hug her back.

"So that Olivia girl, was she pretty?"

"The prettiest." I say reaching in my pocket and taking out Olivia's note. As she takes it from my open hand to read it.

"Well, I knew the girl was true. It was only Eric that was not believable to me." She says.

"You know, it's been two years, but in here." I Say pointing to my chest, "It feels like she's been gone for a hundred." I smile, eyes watering. Maya reaches for my hand.

"This is it, isn't it?" She says squeezing my hand.

"This is what?" I ask.

"This is you. Behind all the sarcastic remarks, this is who you really are. Miles Hollingsworth, it's nice to finally meet you, I wanted to for so long." She says inching closer to my face as she catches me by surprise when I feel her chapped lips on my cheek, "and I absolutely find you beautiful." She whispers.

"How about you Maya? What about your scars? Will the beauty I see in you really be based on your face?" I say touching her face.

And for a while, I'd felt relaxed. Like I was clean and pure, like I wasn't responsible for Olivia's death. Maybe this was what Olivia gave way for. Maybe she knew one day I'd meet Maya and she'd be the one who'll change my life. This may be the chance, the opportunity to make our friendship something more. So I lean in.

MAYA'S POV

He leans in so I think of a different topic.

"So, that Zoe girl is really something huh? She's just your type." I say pulling away a little

"Who the heck is Zoe?" He asks, actually serious.

"Really Miles? You don't know Zoe? She's in our homeroom, she practically wears a sign around her neck that says "Hi I'm Zoe." I roll my eyes.

"Zoe? That sounds like a wart." I Chuckle at his remark cause Zoe was the worst. It's a good thing Tristan's still at Paris until next week.

Soon our chuckles turn into full blown laughter and something in me doesn't stop Miles when I notice him getting closer. Until the laughing died down, and we sat there staring at each other. Slowly, our lips meet, and I swear it's like fireworks during the last day of summer, but somehow, he was the one who pulled away.

"My, you have Cam. Don't lose him." He says unable to look at me.

"Miles, I don't know what to do anymore. I don't know why I wasn't happy when Cam told me he was coming back. But now? I'm happy, here. With you." I say brushing his cheek.

"I'm so sorry Maya, I can't be with you. Not now at least. Friends?" He asks, what else should I say? I don't even know how to react so I swallow the huge lump in my throat and answer.

"Yeah, the Best."
