On the Beach after classes for the day

Maia stood on the empty beach, her shoes were on a beach chair and her jeans were rolled up. She was picking up shells and bits of wood and hurling them as hard as she could out into the water. She stood with her bare feet in the freezing water. The waves came in and deposited sand over her feet, when she went to deep she would step up and let it wash over her feet again. Picking up some more beach pebbles she threw them as hard as she could out into the ocean.

((Conversation between Justin and Maia is NFB))

Justin thought whether or not Maia had heard about Lana and him, or if she'd be alright with it; it concerned him deeply that she would be angry at him. He sought her out through out the day, finding her on the beach, he slipped off his socks and shoes. Coming to her side, he just stared into the horizon, "Hello, Maia."

Maia did not turn. "Hey." She said in a soft voice having just thrown a rock into the waves. "How are you doing today?"

"I'm bloody fantastic." he crosses his arms over his chest, "How are you, darling?" he asks as the wind frantically whips about them, it was oddly chilly outside and he wondered why she was here in the first place.

Maia looks at him now and smiles. "Yeah that is wonderful I am happy for you." Maia bends back down and fishes for another piece of wood or a shell. Finding one she turns it in her hands slowly. "I'm good actually. Had to get out of the school for a while you know."

He nods slowly, slightly hypnotized by the crashing waves, "Oh? Did you talk to Lana then?" he cocks a brow at her, intrigued as to what Lana had said about them.

Maia nodded as she threw the wood and watched it hit the waves. "Yeah I did." Maia steps up a bit to move her feet from sinking so far into the sand. "She a great friend."

"Compassionate girl, she is." he nods in agreement with her statement, watching her throw the wood and things into the waves.

"Yeah she is." Maia sighed lowering her arms to her sides. "Do you love her?" Maia did not look at him she was still looking into the waves.

That was a rough question to answer at the moment, the girl was young and a student and he also barely knew her. "I wouldn't say it was love just yet, Maia."

Maia was still very still not reaching for anything to throw at this points. She licked her lips still staring at the waves. "What did we have Justin?"

"Yes, what a wonderful question. What did we have Maia?" he turns the question over to her.

Hearing the edge in Justin's voice Maia finally turned to look at him. She suddenly felt all the pressure of the last few weeks press in on her. "Don't Justin, you don't get to turn the question on me like that." Maia keeps staring at his profile. "You left Justin. I didn't go anywhere, you disappeared and then I hear from one of my best friends all about how great you are and all the great fun you two are having together. So no Justin you don't get to turn my question against me."

He looks startled by her sudden attack on him, he honestly wanted to know what they had; it wasn't much because she had put him down on so many occassions, he figured that he had to move on. "Maia, I came to visit you, I did." a long sigh, "And about Lana..She's a compassionate being, she's a student of mine and she's a lovely young lady." he adds, still having no idea that she knows they had kissed on more than one occassion.

Justin feels all out of sorts now. Bloody hell.

Maia turned back to the waves, emotions choking in her throat. She speaks in a low voice. "You came once, when I was asleep. You didn't come again." Maia stepped from the water now looking down at her feet and then finally up at Justin. "I was falling in love with you." Maia said quietly.

Justin grasped her shoulders, his eyes boaring into her, "No, you weren't falling in love with me. You pittied me because I was grieving, you pittied me because I had lost someone very dear to me." he says as quietly as she, his eyes glassy with emotion.

Maia shook her head tears blurring her eyes. "I was its true. I-I was scared but I knew it was love and last night Lan-Lana told me about the two of you about how you had kissed her." Maia finished, silent tears finally falling. Maia pulled away from Justin's hands. "It doesn't matter now." She swiped her tears away angry at herself for allowing them to fall.

In his face there is hurt, confusion and sadness; he doesn't know what to do and there's only the ocean to calm him down. "I'm sorry, Maia." he says simply, pursing his lips tightly, feeling as if he had down the worst thing in the world. He felt like a sinner, and it rocked his core.

"So am I." She said simply turning her attention back to the waves. "I missed my chance and Lana took it. She is braver then I will ever be I think." Maia sighs "I let you slip through my fingers for a relationship that fell through and will never materialize again all because I was scared of losing the relationship that I have lost anyway despite all I did to keep it safe and with me."

Without a thought, he decides to award Maia what she had been waiting for; slipping his hand under her chin, he leaned forward and pressed a warm kiss against her lips. "There's always a spot in my heart and arms for you." he whispers against the crashing waves, pulling away from her reluctantly. He had to do it, giver her some reassurance that it was alright.

Maia's eyes closed on the kiss, a tear slide down her cheek as she fought to not embrace him. She had missed her chance, he was Lana's now. She stepped back from Justin and nodded at what he said. Turning to fast the ocean she slipped her hand into his and said softly "You always will in mine to Justin."

[OOC: I'm reading this thinking, my God, the ANGST, and feeling as if Lana should be all upset she's come between them even though she didn't know and then the evil part of me had a great desire for Lana to show up just as Justin kissed Maia and oh what a mess!!!]

((OOC: oh no darling no, this was a conversation Justin and Maia had to have due to their earlier attraction it was in no way shape or form to hurt Lana. In fact now Maia can truly be happy for Lana because she has let Justin go. But oh yes that would have been some serious emo/angst thank you for not doing it. LMAO though if I had not promised dear Maia she would be angst free for a while I would say go for it *laughs* my emo loving self itches to throw her into emo world.))
