Maya stood by the side of the building, glancing around, waiting for Ethan where he told her to meet him. She was doing her damnedest not to be seen, the last thing she needed were her friends butting in. 

"Hey there gorgeous." Her head whipped around to see Ethan standing beside her. He leant against the brick wall, eyeing her with a wicked grin. She crossed her arms and tried her best to keep the smile off her face.

"What are you doing here?"

"You remember how I told you that my parents were at a meeting?" She nodded, still a bit confused.

"Yeah, but what has that to do with what why you're here?"

"Well, they decided to transfer me to live with my aunt out here. Turns out they'd been planning it for a while. Took me by surprise. Actually explains why they've been so perky lately. I expect they were just bursting with joy at the prospect of getting rid of me. I was going to call you, but I figured I'd surprise you instead. So...? Are you surprised?" He prompted, eyebrows wiggling in the most unusually becoming way. She glanced him over with a bored expression, before breaking out in a face splitting smile. She grabbed his jacket and wrenched him toward her body.

"No shit Sherlock. Now kiss me." He chuckled before giving her a bruising kiss. She smiled into the kiss but quickly deepened it, wrapping her arms around his neck loosely. She moaned a bit when he began to kiss down her jaw and neck, sucking at her pulse point. She wanted to stay there forever but eventually the need for oxygen forced her to push him away. She was definitely out of breath and he was panting something fierce.

"Why'd you stop?" She sighed, glancing over at her watch with some reluctance.

"Because lunch period is almost over and I have Spanish next period."

"So what? Skip it." He replied, pulling her back in for more. It was even harder for her to talk herself into separating from him this time, his thumb stroking her cheek was awfully distracting.

"Ugh..."

"C'mon Maya. Just this once. My aunt isn't home. She's a nurse. Doesn't get home til one in the morning. And we've got plenty we could do until one." He said, nuzzling her neck. She bit her lip weighing her choices. Sticking around for her easiest class or have amazing sex with her kind of boyfriend. The choice was, all in all, quite simple.

"Hey Farkle, is that Maya?" Asked Riley, spotting her best friend standing around by the side of the school building. She seemed to be looking for someone. She began to walk towards her when Farkle grabbed her arm to stop her. She turned to berate him when he pointed back to the scene.

"Look. Isn't that the new kid?" She whirled around to see Ethan approaching her best friend. Maya turned to face the boy with a serious look on her face, and they seemed be deep in conversation. When Maya grabbed his jacket and dragged him to herself she nearly walked over there, until they began to kiss. Riley jerked back out of view and turned to Farkle who had a similar shocked expression on his face.

"I'm not imagining things am I? That really just happened." He nodded slowly, eyes still bug wide. Riley turned to investigate, when Farkle grabbed her upper arm. She turned to him and he gave her an almost pleading look.

"Riley. We should go back to lunch. Now." Riley gave him an uneasy look but he merely raised his eyebrows, intensifying his point.

"We have Spanish next. We could ask her what's going on there." Riley seemed dazed by how out of sorts the entire situation was, but agreed. She would definitely be asking her what the hell was happening next period.

"Maya Hart? Maya?¿Dónde está la Señora Hart?" Asked Señora Feinstein-Chang, looking towards Riley for an answer. Riley merely shrugged her shoulders, she'd like to bloody know that too.

"Oh, bueno, supongo que solo será marcada como ausente." The teacher said, and continued with roll call. Riley, on the other hand, was nervous. Where was Maya? Surely she hadn't skipped? Who was she kidding? That was classic Maya. Though, come to think of it, "classic Maya" hadn't made an appearance in some time. Where on Earth could she be?

"That...was... amazing." Maya panted, turning over to look at her bed partner. He smirked at her expression, happy that he managed to make her feel like that.

"What can I say? Practice makes perfect. Cigarette?" He asked passing her the one he'd already been smoking. She smiled and took a long drag before passing it back.

"How did you do that thing with your tongue?" He laughed at the wonder in her voice.

"Oh Maya, I haven't even showed you a quarter of what I can do in bed." She smiled at him and rolled over so she was on top.

"Well then show me. Ready for round two?" He quickly snuffed out his cigarette in the ashtray and grabbed a new condom from his side drawer, doing that inexplicably sexy eyebrow wiggle of his.

"I'm always ready." She giggled as he smacked her backside, pulling her in for what would be yet another round of amazing sex.

"So you're sure you haven't seen her?" Riley asked the policeman in the station with a crestfallen expression.

"Yes ma'am. No one matching that description has come through here." Riley sighed and nodded. Lucas had come with her for support and safety, and he squeezed her hand to try and console his girlfriend.

"Well thank you anyway." Riley waved the man off, hurrying back towards her complex, and tried Maya's phone just once more. She prepared herself for another voicemail message when she heard the telltale click of someone picking up the phone.

"Hello?" Riley was surprised to hear a male voice answer. Lucas gave her a look as she held up a finger as the signal to wait.

"Um, hello. Is Maya there?" 

"Sure, she's just in the shower. Can I take a message?" Her eye's widened and Lucas gave her a look of, "what the hell is happening".

"Uh, can you tell her it's Riley? Wondering where she is."

"Yeah, no probl- Oh wait, here she is. Babe, it's some girl named Riley calling for you." She heard a mutter of, oh shit, and heard some scratching as the phone exchanged hands.

"Heyyy Riles."

"DON'T YOU "HEYYY RILES" ME! WHERE ARE YOU?" She shouted and listened as Maya mumbled something unrecognisable to the male voice. Lucas stared at his girlfriend in some disbelief. He'd never really seen Riley this angry before, and to be honest, it kind of scared him.

"Uh, doesn't really matter. I'll be home soon."

"Maya, it's 11:00! Where have you been?"

"Shit, it's 11 already? Damn." Riley could then hear a mumbled sentence that sounded suspiciously like, 'hey babe, pass me my shirt.'

"Maya! What were you thinking? I was so worried! Why do you keep doing things like this to us? It's so irresponsible!"

"Chill, Riley, ok? I'll be home soon.

"You come to the bay window straight away!"

"Fine, fine. I'll be there as soon as possible." She hung up the phone before Riley could speak again. To say she was shocked would be an understatement. Her best friend never acted like this anymore. Anytime she would be out late she always checked in with Riley. Always. There had to be something wrong. There just had to be. Lucas rubbed her shoulder and gave her a hug.

"I'm sure she's ok Riles. C'mon, your dad's probably worried sick."

A/N: Hahahaha, I'm literally driving myself insane with the angst anticipation. Oh it's coming, and it's gonna be goooood. Hope you enjoyed loves, until next time.
