Maya nodded. "Yeah, I mean there's some scary spiders, but other then that I feel safe there." She said with a small smile. "We take care of each other. There is the verbal fights, but it's all good and fun. Well, sometimes. John can be an ass."

"Okay," Michael said. "If it's important for you, I can promise I'll keep things about you secret to the best of my ability. I can't lie, but other than that, I'll do what I can."

Out of sudden impulse, Maya leaned across the table to place a light kiss on his lips. "Thank you, Michael." She said softly and slowly backed away.

"You're welcome," Michael replied. "I guess I made the right decision... judging by your reaction," there was a hint of a mischievous spark in his eyes, although his countenance remained mostly calm, as always.

"Yeah, I guess you did." Maya said with a smirk. "What are you thinking?" She asked, noticing that spark in his eyes.

"I'm thinking I should make the right decisions more often," Michael replied.

Maya laughed. "You should. Then you get rewarded." She told him with a wink.

"My point exactly," Michael nodded. He finished his glass of juice.

Maya took a drink from her glass, only a few more sips left in it when she set it back down. "Do you remember that song, the Coldplay song you played on your guitar for me?" She asked, she had wanted to tell him this for awhile and why not now?

Michael had played a few, but only one came to mind instantly, for some reason. "White Shadows?" he asked. "Or another one?"

Maya nodded. "Yeah." She smiled. "Before the merge it came on the radio. I was Ava and when it came on the radio Maya, I, started fighting. It's hard to think of us as separate people now, but-" She took a breath. "I just thought I should tell you."

Somehow, it brought Michael some relief. He didn't know the details about her merge; by the way Maya sometimes mentioned it, it sounded like an unpleasant memory, and he preferred not to bother her with his questions or references to it.
"Well, I guess I've played my part in it, then," he said. "That's somehow... comforting to hear."

Maya gave a small nod, smiling. She then finished off the rest of the contents in her glass. She felt good that she told him. She hadn't told anyone that and she knew she could tell him anything. It did, in a way, involve him. "So, I was thinking we should find a music store."

Michael could sense that her small confession made her feel better, and it gave him a more positive outlook on things, too. "A music store?" he asked. "That's interesting... well, okay, let's do it, then." He got up from his chair.

Maya grinned and stood up, placing a few dollars on the table before she took his hand in hers and made her way out of the café and onto the sidewalk.
