*Maya's POV*

I get why Sara's stressed out. But I think she needs to calm down. We still have to time to worry about college..about like 5 months.

"Sara, don't worry. You'll be fine," I tell her.

"Ya, but I don't really know what I'm gonna major in," she adds.

"Didn't you say you wanted to be a singer? Just go to a performing arts college--like Juilliard," I suggest.

"Maya, it's not like you just sign up. Julliard's acceptance rate is like 7%," Sara sounds really intense.

"Well Julliard's just an option, there's other schools," I explain.

"There's no point. My parents will never let me apply," Sara frowns.

There has to be a way...

"Just ask Alex for a little endorsement," I suggest.

Sara shrugs. "..I don't know. That'll be like using him to get there."

"True," I agree. "But just ask."

"Nah, I'll figure it out."

If you're not going to, I'll have to do it for you.

Alex: I was planning this huge surprise for her on her BDAY 

Me: well just do it as an early surprise jeez

*Alex's POV*

I don't know why Maya wants me to do a cover with Sara now. But they are best friends so I'm not gonna say anything...

"Aww, I ship it even more!" Maya exclaims.

"Keep in mind, I wouldn't NEVER act like that when you get a boyfriend," I tell her.

"Um, that'll be when I get taller," Maya jokes.

"Aw c'mon, I'm short too," I awe.

"You're tall compared to me, you're 5"1," Maya frowns.

"Hey. Alex is like 5"10, ok. So I'm the shortie compared to him," I try to make her feel better.

"Ohh, that's where the "Baja and Alto Fight" comes from," Maya realizes.

I nod with a giggle. Ah our banter.

"Are we talking about Alex AGAIN?" Ava groans.

Maya and I look at her, walking away, continue talking.
