A guest requested a angst one-shot, but I'm taking it further with a new Rilaya story.

This Fanfic is rated T for injuries and some hardcore feels

Fist-bump*

It was like every normal day for Riley and Maya. Until it wasn't.

The two friends were walking on the sidewalk, just talking and laughing. "Maya! You can't say that!" Riley complained with a giggle and a slight blush.

"It's true though," Maya replied with a smirk.

Riley just rolled her eyes and started crossing the street.

Maya was about to follow, but she saw a car coming; coming way too fast. "Riley! Look out!" she yelled while running towards her. Maya pushed her out of the way in time, but not in time for herself.

"Maya!" Riley wailed when she turned around to see Maya unconscious on the ground. "Oh my gosh, this is all my fault...," she whispered to herself while tears streamed down her face. She got closer as she heard the distant siren of an ambulance.

Maya's leg was bent at an awkward angle, but there wasn't too much blood.

"I'm so sorry," she whispered as the paramedics whisked Maya off to the hospital.

Riley now sat in the waiting room, scared, tired, and crying. She felt so guilty about all of this. If only she had paid more attention to rhe road..

Cory and Topanga were there too, but unfortunately Maya's mom was caught up at the diner.

Riley looked up when a doctor came towards them and immediately asked, "Is Maya okay?! Is she going to be okay?!"

The doctor looked at her for a second, then replied as gently as she could, "Your friend is still unconscious, but she'll live."

Riley didn't know is she should be relieved or sad. "Can I... Can I see her?" she then quietly asked.

The doctor nodded. "Room 208."

Never had Riley ran that fast in her life.

As soon as she got to the room, she hesitated, mentally preparing herself for what she might see. She took a deep breath and opened the door, only for the jaw to drop and her heart to wrench. "Maya..." she trailed off as she felt a lump in her throat. Maya was still unconscious, but she at least looked peaceful. Riley walked up to her side and immediately took her hand and held it gently. "If only... If only I had payed attention... we wouldn't be in this situation," Riley began, holding back tears. She then used her other hand to stroke Maya's cheek. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," she whispered as tears spilled down her face. "Wake up, Maya, I need you," she continued as she cried to her unconscious friend. "... I didn't mean for this to happen..."
