AN: Secret First Date Part 1, at your service!
Maya stared at the trees outside, hiding on the steps. She was waiting. It was spring. The leaves were pink and red and green and yellow. It was warm. Suddenly, she saw him... his hair was messy and uncombed and wet but she didn't mind. She thought it looked cute... it was his just-out-of-practice look, and it fit him perfectly. He was always the last out and he had the worst hair.
"Maya..." he smiled and she smiled back. "Are you ready to go?"
She didn't say anything. Looking around and deeming the premises clear, she nodded. "I'm sorry we have to be sneaky."
"Yeah... but I sort of like it." Cam said, walking around to catch her hand in his. She smiled to herself and interlaced their fingers, turning toward him. They were staring at each other for a second before Maya looked down at her shoes. Their silence was comfortable.
"Where are you coming from? You couldn't have just been waiting for me the whole time" Cam asked her, out of the blue. Maya was shocked and looked up at his smiling face. He wasn't focused on the his shoes or the trees, all of his attention was on her. Maya smiled at him.
"Band practice. Like one of those cheesy garage bands, not the Grade 9 Band." Maya said. Cam laughed and Maya giggled.
"What's your name?" Cam asked.
"Whisperhug, we played at the dance awhile ago. My friend Zig is in it and this girl Imogen? You know her?" Cam shook his head. "Well, you probably do... just don't know it's her." Maya's eyes were trained on her shoelaces again, out of shyness. Cam swallowed, staring at her.
He couldn't believe his luck, here at Degrassi. This girl had been in this club with him for two weeks and for fourteen days he woke up telling himself he could tell her how he felt or something and or thirteen nights he went to bed thinking he'd do it tomorrow. And yesterday, he had finally bucked up enough courage to do it and instead of rejecting him like he expected, Maya had admitted her feelings too. For him. And then he asked her out, but when Dallas saw him talking to her... whatever, he could still walk her home.
"Hey! Can I show you something before we leave?" He asked, suddenly excited. Maya looked up, smiled and nodded. Holding his other hand out for her, she graciously accepted it. Cam's hand took her hand and intertwined their fingers. Suddenly, he was racing her down the street and at a really fast pace. They slowed down a little bit to catch their breath but still held their fast pace.
He stopped right in front of a park, the one Maya passes everyday for school that she hasn't played in since she was six . He looked around and entered it. It was filled with screaming children and frustrated mothers. Maya grinned at him.
"Why'd you bring me here?" she laughed as he directed her to sit on a bench. "Not that I don't like this place. Hell, it used to be my favorite place ever."
"Yeah, well, now I get to be in your favorite place ever with my favorite person ever. It's a bonus." he whispered and smiled at her. Leaning in he kissed her, for only the second time, and Maya relished in it.
Your first kiss is never perfect. Her's was a bit messy and wet but they laughed about it afterwards. Maya had never been so elated in that moment. It was a weird feeling for sure, being kissed.
He pulled away and smiled. Maya bit her lip "Is it bad that I like kissing you so much already?
