Girl Meets A Whole New World - Chapter 1
Riley Matthews and Maya Hart are sitting in their most favorite place in the world, the bay window.
Riley - "Maya! We need to start our homework."
Maya -"Riley the project isn't due for a week."
Riley - "Yes but if we start it now, we can take tomorrow off from it, do some more the next day, take the following day off from it, then finish it on Friday and have the weekend off. That way we can get a little of it done here and there and take some time off from it in between, and most importantly not have to do it your way and try to cram it all in on Sunday the night before it's due."
Maya -"Sweetie?"
Riley - "Yes Peaches." Riley says with a big smile on her face looking at her best friend.
Maya - "You are way too rational in your thinking for your age."
Riley - "It's a good thing Maya you just don't realize it yet. Now let's go, it's homework time."
Maya - "Let's go! That's a perfect idea. Let's text the other guys and have them meet us at Topanga's. We can hang out, have a smoothie and chill for a little while. Then we can come back and do some homework." Maya says with her own big smile and shaking her head yes hoping it convinces her friend to go along with her idea.
Riley - "That sounds great Maya!"
Maya - "Really?"
Riley - "Yes. But we're going to reverse it. See we're going to do some homework for a couple hours first, so we ACTUALLY DO the homework. Then we'll text the guys an meet up with them later."
Maya doesn't like that idea at all so she playfully sticks her lower lip out in a pouting form.
Riley - "That's very sexy Maya but it's not gonna work on me."
This comment shocks Maya as she backs away a little and looks at her friend in mild bewilderment. This comment also shocks Riley even though it came out of her own mouth. Riley just stares ahead for a moment.
(Inside Riley's head she thinks to herself.) "Where the heck did that come from? I mean I know Maya is very attractive, anybody with a working set of eyeballs can see that, but...WHERE THE HECK DID THAT COME FROM?!"
Maya - "Wow Riley, I never knew you thought of me that way." The blonde girl says to her best friend playfully.
Riley turns towards her best friend and stammers. "I I I'm sorry Maya. I have no idea where that came from" She then laughs nervously.
Maya - "Oh you're sorry? So you don't think I'm sexy?" Maya says, once again in a playful manner.
Riley - "Let's just get started on the homework. The faster we start, the faster we get done, the faster we can text our friends and go hang out."
Maya - "Again sweetie, you're thinking way to rational for your age. just calm down and relax and go with the flow." Maya says as she waves her hands in motion with the way she's talking.
Finally the two girls get started on their homework. after a while Maya looks at her phone and in an over exaggerated voice yells at Riley, making her best friend jump in surprise.
Maya - "Riley Matthews!"
Riley - "WHAT?"
Maya - "We've been doing homework for 2 hours and 3 minutes! That's 3 minutes longer than you said we'd have to do it!"
Riley - "Wow Maya, too bad your not that time oriented when it comes to being in class."
Maya - "Oh I'm sorry Mr. Matthews. I thought I was talking to your daughter. Can you please have Riley come back now?" Maya said, her words dripping with sarcasm.
Riley - Real funny Peaches. Fine, you text Lucas and Zay and I'll text Farkle and Smackle and we'll meet them at Topanga's."
The girls text their friends. It didn't take long to get answers back. Everybody was to meet at Topanga's in a half hour.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Riley and Maya walk into Topanga's and plops down in the bay window area joining their friends who are already sipping on their smoothies.
Maya - "Ooh right, smoothies!"
Riley - "I'll get them Peaches. You want the usual?"
Maya - "But of course. Thank you Honey." She smiles at her best friend.
Lucas - "So Shortstack, you actually get some homework done tonight?"
Maya - "Yes Moral Compass. Ms. Princess Dancing Sunshine wouldn't let me out of it."
Lucas - "Well someone has to make sure you do it." Lucas says with a smile.
Maya - "Ugh!" Maya simply says, rolling her eyes."
A few minutes pass by before Riley makes her way back over with both hers and Maya's Smoothies.
Riley - "Here ya go Peaches." Riley says with her usual smile handing Maya her Smoothie.
Riley - "So what do you guys wanna do?"
Maya - "After being forced to do 2 hours worth of homework. I just wanna sit and relax."
Zay - "Sounds good to me. After school I did an hour's worth of homework, then helped my mom make dinner, then had to do the dishes after dinner. So relaxin actually sounds great to me."
Everybody else eventually agreed with just staying at their hangout and relaxing.
Maya - "Hey you guys wanna hear something funny Riley said tonight?"
Riley - "Maya no!" Riley said quickly turning red in the face.
Farkle - "Ooh Riley's turning red. Now we gotta hear it."
Maya - "Riley called me sexy." Maya says flicking her eyebrows up and down.
Lucas/Zay/Farkle/Smackle in unicy - "Whaaaaaat?"
Riley - "Guys stop. I was just joking. I just said it, I don't know where it came from." Riley's face started turning even redder.
Zay - "Ooh Riley are you secretly crushing on our little Blonde Beauty over here?"
Riley - "Yes Zay. I am secretly in love with my best friend who just happens to be a girls like me." Riley says sarcastically.
Maya - "It's ok Riley I will always love you to Honey. Maya says jokingly, then shoots an evil glare at Zay. "You got a problem with that Ballet Boy?"
Zay backs up with his hands up surrendering. "No Ma'am"
The whole group laughs, well all except Riley. She really wishes Maya didn't bring that up.
The group hangs out for a while longer until...
Lucas - "Well guys it's getting late. We should probably head home."
Maya - "Oh no not you too Huckleberry."
Lucas "What now Shortstack?"
Maya - "Both you and Riley think way too rationally for your age. You need to"
Riley - "Chill and relax and just go with the flow." Riley says both with her mouth and her hands very sarcastically mocking what her best friend had said earlier.
Maya looks at her friend in complete shock. "Riley Matthews! Did you just mock me?"
Riley "Yea! What are you gonna do about it?"
Maya - "Oh honey, oh sweetie I thought you were cute before but when you try to be a jerk you are just downright adorable."
Riley smiles big. "Thanks Peaches."
This causes everyone to chuckle.
Smackle - "Alright alright, I agree with Lucas, time to go home. We all need our sleep so we can be bright eyed and bushy tailed tomorrow for school."
Maya - "Ugh! Smackle I love ya sweetie but you make me sick."
Riley - " Alright miss negative! Time to go."
They all said their goodbyes and went home.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Riley and Maya make it back to Riley's place and climb through the bay window.
Riley - "So what do ya wanna do now?"
Topanga - "Ah nothing."
Both Riley and Maya jump in surprise not expecting anyone else to be so close.
Topanga finishes walking into Riley's bedroom. "Girls it is 9:15. Time for Maya to go home and you to go to bed Riley."
Riley - "But mom we just got back." Riley complained.
Topanga - "Yea from hanging out all night with each other. Time is the time and rules are the rules. Both you girls know that."
"OK" they both said bowing their head in a over dramatic pout. Topanga just smiles and shakes her head as she leaves Riley's bedroom.
Maya - "Hey Riles."
Riley - "Yea Maya."
Maya - "The faster we get to sleep, the faster we can get up, and the faster we can be together tomorrow!"
Riley thought about this for a second then a huge smile forms across her face. "You're right Peaches!"
Maya rubs her forehead while shaking her head laughing.
Riley - "What's so funny?"
Maya - "Honey I was mocking you. Just like you did to me earlier."
Riley - "Oh. Well it's still true."
Maya still laughing "Yes it is sweetie. Alright I'm gonna go. Love ya Honey."
The girls like a zillion other times wrap each other in a huge hug and Maya kisses Riley on the cheek. But this time Riley freezes. A jolt of tingles fill Riley's body.
Maya "See ya tomorrow Riles."
Riley - "Night Peaches." Was all Riley was able to choke out.
Maya jumped out the bay window and headed off to home. Riley still stood there frozen while her body from head to toes was filled with a tingly sensation.
(Inside Riley's head.") "What is this?! What is this feeling? Maya and I have hugged and kissed each other on the cheek Thousands of time and I have never felt this way. It is a very different feeling, yet in an odd way very familiar."
Topanga walks back into Riley's room. "Riley are getting ready for bed yet?"
Riley completely lost in thought, didn't here her mother at first. Topanga notices this so she claps her hands snapping Riley out of her daze.
Riley - "I'm sorry, what mom?"
Topanga - "You ok sweetie?"
Riley - "Yea mom I'm fine. Guess I'm just more tired than I thought."
Topanga - "Good. Get changed and go to bed. You got school in the morning." Topanga kisses her daughter's forehead. "Goodnight Sweetie."
Riley - "Yea, goodnight Mom."
After Topanga leaves Riley's room, Riley changes into her pajamas and jumps into bed. Riley pulls the covers up tight. Still feeling the tingly affect of Mayas hug and kiss on the cheek, Riley closes her eyes. "Seriously! What the heck was that?!"
