Queshia went home after that drama and was thinking she wanted to be Maverick's girl next week on the first day of the month, pretty lovely to celebrate on the first day of every month she thought. She then texted Maverick when she got home and she's going to rest. Meanwhile, Maverick just finished with his class, and he read the text and replied saying that she should have a good rest and not to forget to eat. He then went out with his friends to party at the bar like they use to, but unconsciously felt guilty even if he's practically still single, so he texted Queshia that he'd be drinking out with friends, with boys to be exact. He never felt that way before, he does what he wants without any consent from anyone, not even his parents can control him, let alone a simple girl he hasn't fully known, yet he's there sitting amongst the crowd texting and explaining to her. He keeps insisting to himself that it's just a test, a test he's making for Queshia, if she's worth it or not, and it actually worked! He convinced himself that he's still the same old Maverick. But little did he know, he's changing. He shooed away all the girls that tried to flirt with him that night, and that's not how the old Maverick rolls. He bid farewell early that night and told his friends that there's a family emergency, and they bought it. He texted Queshia that he was going home, and like what they always do, they texted each other until they'd fall asleep.
The next day Queshia with her friends, had lunch at the canteen where Maverick eats with his friends. Ken was holding her camera then suddenly Maverick say at the table beside them. Queshia was still shy talking to him in person, especially around his friends. Maverick introduced her to his friends, and she introduced her friends with his friends. Ken snapped some photos of Maverick and Queshia secretly yet obviously, because of course, he's holding up a DSLR camera - like way to go to help your friend look obsessed with the guy she likes. Especially with a narcissist bunch of people - Maverick and friends. Good thing the awkwardness stopped, when Maverick asked if they could eat together, separated to their group of friends - just the two of them.
"Hey...I honestly didn't tell Ken to take pictures...not that I didn't like our want it...I'm sorry...it's just...awkward you know..."Queshia reasoned out.
"No worries...it's not like we're strangers..."
They chatted and chatted until break is almost over.
"Uhm...Queshia...I wanted to ask you a question..."
"Hmm?"
"Can you be my girlfriend?"
"Uhm...well..."
"Is it a bad time to ask? Do you need more time? It's okay really...no need to rush..." 'though I would really like it if you'd say yes now...'
"Ok..."
"Yes! I'll be your girlfriend!"she answered with a burning red cheeks
"Yes!" he almost yelled. He tried so hard to contain his emotions due to fact that they're at a public place, and he doesn't want attention. He wanted to jump for joy at that time but can't do anything but pull Queshia out of the canteen.
