Maya's POV:
After Lucas had walked into the kitchen, I got up and followed him.

Obviously, this was a struggle since I only had one good leg and no crutches.

But, I couldn't get myself into the wheelchair right now and I really needed to talk to him.

I walked, more like hopped on one foot, into the kitchen.

I saw him on his phone, not facing my direction.

I went up to him and tapped his shoulder so he would turn around.

"Lucas we need to talk." I said.

Lucas turned around and saw me. "Maya what are you doing, you aren't supposed to be walking!"

I caught my breath, holding onto the counter. "I know, I'm sorry but we need to talk."

Lucas sighed. "Not now, Maya."

It was starting to really hurt standing on my one good leg.

"Lucas please! I'm tired of feeling like you are always keeping secrets from me. Don't you trust me?"

"Yes." Lucas said.

I smiled a little and started going back to the living room.

Suddenly, I felt myself getting picked up and I looked at Lucas.

"You know you aren't that heavy." He said.

~~~~
We sat on the couch and I sighed in relief.

I don't understand why the doctor didn't get me crutches.

Well, that's not really the point right now..

Before either of us could say anything, we heard Annie from her playpen.

Lucas stood up quickly and grabbed her.

"Should I feed her lunch?" He asked me.

I shook my head. "I fed her two hours ago. I think she just wants our attention."

I looked at Annie to see her smiling at both of us.

Lucas sat down and put Annie on his lap, placing her on his right leg.

I examined both of them and said, "you know I've always thought Annie looks most like you."

"Really?" 

I nodded. "yeah. that's what i've always thought..."

It was silent for another moment until Lucas spoke up. "So, the problem is... I got fired from work."

I sat up. "What?! Why?"

Lucas shrugged his shoulders. "You know missy is my boss."

I rolled my eyes. "Oh my god, that is so stupid."

Lucas nodded. "I know. But i'm fine with it, i don't want to deal with her anyways."

I could understand that.

"So what are you gonna do?"

"Well i'm gonna start looking for another job, but i have to take care of you first."

I bit my lip. "Lucas you don't have to---"

"But i want to."

Lucas pulled me closer to him so i was leaning on his shoulder.

I sighed. "Lucas are we ever gonna not have drama?"

"I don't know. But we'll get through it, okay?"

I smiled. "I know."

"just wait, whenever we set the date, you'll be Mrs. Lucas Friar."

I made a face. "Oh grossss." 

I was obviously teasing him.

"Oh, you're excited."

I leaned up so i was facing him. "You're right, i am. But we haven't even started planning yet." 

"We probably should wait until your leg is better."

I nodded in agreement and looked down at Lucas's lap to see Annie rubbing her eyes tiredly.

"Can you take Annie to her crib please?" I asked Lucas.

He nodded and stood up, carrying her up the stairs.

I took my phone out of my pocket and looked at my recent reminders.

I got to a recent one and read it. 

Lucas's birthday is tomorrow!

I facepalmed myself as i read the reminder.

Oh my god, how could i have forgotten?

I'm just surprised Lucas hasn't said anything...

I needed to get him a present, but there was really no possible way for me to get it with my broken leg.

That's when i got an idea and went to my contacts.

I'll just get Riley to help me.
