Chapter 1: New Places, With New And Old Faces

Riley's POV

"Under my umbrella ella ella, eh eh eh!"

I sing as rhianna plays on the radio, while I unpack boxes. As I dance over to my dresser, I hear my phone ring. 'IT'S ZAY!' I swipe right to answer his facetime call.

"Hey Sugar, how's the move?" Zay says curiously.

"Okay so far, but I miss you guys! New York is so loud and annoying." I whine with a pout. "But I got my music to block out the car noises so far."

"We miss you too Riles! And I'm sure you will find a way to get used to it." Zay ensures me with a sad smile.

"Zay...what's wrong? And don't say nothing because I know when you're lying!" I exclaim concered. Zay notices the worried look on my face and uses his pointer finger to mimic a tear falling down his face.

"Nothing...for once." He says with a bored tone. Then he remembers-"Oh! Guess what!" He says practically bouncing in his seat.

"What?" I say with an amused tone. Biting my lip trying so hard not to laugh.

"You gotta guess."

Raising my eyebrows, I get a little annoyed. "Zay I'm not in the mood, you tell me or I'm driving down there and punching you in the face."

"Okay. Okay. Relax Sugar! Anyway, the news is that I'm coming from Texas to help you guys settle down this weekend. And I have a suprise for you!"

"Yay! You get to annoy me even more that you already do!" I exclaim sarcastically, throwing my arms in the air.

"You know it Sugar." He tips his imaginary cowboy hat and playfully winks.

I curtsy and blow a kiss, while he pretends to catch it. "We are so freaking lame." I say chuckling.

"You know, an old friend of mine is-" A doorbell cuts Zay off. I give him an apologetic smile and bid him a good day.

While chuckling to myself I walk downstairs and open the door. I see a girl with blonde hair and cerulean blue eyes. She's wearing a 'Bob Dylan Band' tee (tied with a rubberband), black denim skinny jeans, and a leather jacket with cute tan ankle boots.

She greets me with a smile and says "Maya Hart." She holds her hand out in front of me. "You must be the new neighbors."

Gradually I accept her gesture and return a small smile."Riley. Riley Mathews... What school do you go to?"

"Abigail Adams High. I'm assuming thats where you will be going since its just up the block?" I just nod.

Then my mother, Topanga Mathews comes. "Riley, who's at the door?" She walks towards us and holds out her hand saying "Hello. You must be Maya." I look at my mother with furrowed eyebrows and a confused look. I guess she saw because-"I was talking to your parents outside." I look back at Maya and my mom invites her in using a hand gesture. "Please come in." Says my mom.

"Actually I came over to ask if you guys wanted any help with the boxes or unpacking?"

My mother nods and says she can help me unpack my boxes. I glare at my mother groaning lightly so Maya doesn't hear.

My mother returns the glare and I plaster a fake smile and invite the girl upstairs. I swear if looks could kill I would be 6 feet under.

Once we make it to my room, Maya starts talking to make the awkward silence less awkward. Although she does the opposite, she keeps going. "So, have you met anyone yet? Well you know...besides me." I shake my head and play my music. Humming to 'Gold' by Kiiara, I start placing skirts and pants in one of my drawers. Maya starts taking dresses and nice shirts out of boxes and places them on hangers and in the closet.

After a few minutes of no talking she speaks again making me roll my eyes, even though my back is turned and she can't see me. "Well my friends and I would love to take you in and help you survive AAHS. I have to warn you though, they can be extremely annoying when it comes to certain topics like feelings, girls,etc. ... And they are mostly boys." She says with a sheepish smile.

I look at her and scoff. "Trust me I can handle myself. And I know what you mean by annoying guy friends I have one back in Texas." Once I finish she looks at me like she's seen a dragon. "What? Is there something wrong?" I ask with curiosity and worry plastered on my face.

"No. Everythings fine. It's just... I have a friend from Texas. What part are you from?"

"Austin." I say proudly. Walking over to her I realize her eyes have widened and her lips slightly separeted in shock and amusment.

I furrow my eyebrows and ask "Are you okay?" She completely ignores me and pulls out her phone while turning around with a mischievous smirk. I glance over her shoulder and notice she's texting someone. But who? And why? Why did she ignore me completely to text some...some-wait why do I even care? Its not like we are best friends or anything. Heck, we aren't even friends yet. After a few minutes she turns around and apologizes saying she has to go but will be back later. Without a reason she takes off and I'm left alone in my room trying to call Zay again...but nothing. So I just finish putting my clothes away and i take a break. Heading to the garage anyway I take my empty boxes and walk outside. Once I'm outside, the smell of gasoline and cigarettes invade my nostrils. I cringe and start walking the 5 feet to my garage. I put down the boxes and decide to look around and take in my surroundings before opening the garage door. As I look around I see...MY "UNCLE SHAWN!"

"Hey kiddo! How've you been?" He says with a smile.

"Same as always...you know...meh" I say shocked and suprised. "What are you doing here?" Soon enough I see Maya and another lady with blonde hair walk up to Shawn.

"I live here." He says with an arm around Maya and the lady I'm assuming is her mother.

Before I process that information I see my father, Corey Mathews, running out the door and jumping into Shawn's arms yelling- "SHAWNIE!"

While my uncle is yelling "COREY!"

My mom comes out and walks over to Maya's mom. They look at each other and my mom says-"My whole life." With an annoyed smile plastered on her face.

I look to my left and see Maya next to me laughing hysterically over my dad and his best friend. I stand there looking at everyone as if they are crazy. Soon Maya calms down and says-"How do you know my dad?"

"DAD?!" I exclaim shocked yet happy for my uncle.

"Well step-dad. But I couldn't help in noticing that our dads look as if they are married." She says chuckling a little.

I let out a small laugh and start talking to Maya. We talk as if we've known each other our whole lives. I feel so comfortable around her and I trust her more than my own parents. I know this is totally clichè, but after less than a day I feel like I can tell her anything and the whole world will be at peace. After a day we became best friends and even got matching friendship rings. Of course I stole my dad's credit card to get them, but Maya didnt't seem to mind. (Insert I don't care emoticon) ;p
