If age is just a number

What job?

Third person

Maya sucked in a breath of the cool air before opening the door to topangas, stepping inside the warm building. Her eyes scanned the room, Zay and Isadora sat in the corner laughing. She smiled, heading over to the couple,

"Hey!" Isadora hugged the blonde, pulling her down to sit beside her. "I got my college letters back.." Isadora passed Maya the envelopes. Maya smiled, sifting through the ones she had got accepted to, "did you get turned down by any?" Maya questioned baffled

Isadora chuckled, "Yes of course! These are just ones I like..have you gotten yours?" Isadora asked. Maya shook her head No, "I haven't been home yet" she sighed slightly. Zay furrowed his eyebrows, knowing why, "how you holding up?" He asked sympathetically. Maya pulled a slight face "uh..I'm fine..thanks.?" she questioned weirdly

"Oh that's good, I was worried that the job in Texas was gonna cause an argument between you two" Zay grew a soft smile on his face. Maya and Isadora shared a confused look, "what job?" Maya questioned.

The smile fell from Zay's face "..you haven't seen Lucas today..?" He asked the blonde. She shook her head, "No..what job, Zay?" She demanded. Zay shrugged his shoulders, "I don't want to say much..it's his news not mine..he was offered a job Maya..in Texas" Zay spoke softly

Her breath hitched in her throat, her eyes scanning him quickly, "a-are you joking?" She stuttered. He shook his head sadly "I'm sorry, maya" he said barely above a whisper "you should go, he might be over at yours..if you hear him out then it might sound better" Isadora gestured for the blonde to leave

She nodded, sliding out from the booth and exiting the cafe, counting her steps as she walked home. He's moving? Again? And he hasn't told you yet? So many thoughts flew through her brain, she wasn't sure how to feel, whether she was mad, happy, excited or sad.

She reached her apartment, picking up the mail on the way and sifting through it, her eyes landing on thick white envelopes. She ripped them open, dropping the rest of the mail on the table and scanning through the words written on the paper

"Dear Miss Maya Hart,
We would like to congratulate you on your acceptance.."

Her heart skipped a beat, shoving the papers back into her bag and leaving the apartment again, lucas and his job completely leaving her mind. She raced over to Riley's apartment, climbing up the fire escape until she reached her best friends window

Riley sat on the bed with Farkle beside her, reading through the envelope of paper. Maya smiled "you got in?" She asked the brunette. Riley smiled "I did, did you?" She asked. Maya nodded, hugging her best friend and jumping up and down

"So we both got accepted to these" Riley squealed, putting the colleges they both got into in a pile, Maya smiled, biting down on her lip "do you know which one you want to go to?" Riley asked

Maya nodded "yea..I think so.." she smiled..
