"You want me to go home? I'll go home." Maya said those lasting words to Riley as she climbed down the fire escape. She was furious at Riley. Just because she straightened out her hair and wore nice clothes that Shawn bought her every now and then didn't mean she was Riley Matthews 2.0.
She was continuously wiping the tears from her cheeks as she walked.
What Maya didn't see was a red truck. A drunk driver was behind the wheel. Maya was in the middle of the road when she saw headlights and a red car that was speeding towards her.
But it was too late as the car hit her hard. She flew a few feet up in the air and fell on her head rendering her unconscious. A biker that was riding in the middle of the night saw the horrific scene and called 911.
The Matthews as they were having dinner heard the loud car crash outside not too far from their house. They all ran outside. Neighbors also wanting to see what the commotion was about went outside.
Cory went up to Ms. Franklin to ask what happened. "Oh dear, they said a drunk driver had hit a small girl with blonde hair and that there was a lot of blood." Riley immediately knew it was Maya and she pushed past people and ran to the front.
"Riley!" Cory yelled as he grabbed his wife's hand and carried Auggie with the other as they tried to catch up. Riley was fighting with the police officer and the police officer was trying to calm her down.
"Riley calm down you can't run off like that." Topanga scolded and pulled her back. Then Riley kept on saying it was my fault over and over and started to cry in Topanga's arms. "Baby what's wrong?" Topanga asked in concern as she rubbed her back softly.
"I-I told Maya she was trying to act like me and she went away. It's all my fault she got in the c-car crash!" Riley had stuttered out and started crying again. Topanga looked at Cory solemnly. "Its okay. She is stronger than this." Topanga reassured her.
"Cory get the truck." Topanga asked as she dialed Katy's number. Cory nodded his head and took a still crying Riley away from Topanga. Katy picked up on the second ring.
"Hey Topanga what's up?" Katy said as she was in the living room watching a movie with Shawn.
Topanga was trying to be strong. "Katy Maya's been in an accident." How are you supposed to say those words to a mother. She had a hard time even saying those words herself. Maya was like a second daughter to her. "What!" Katy yelled to the phone.
Shawn looked at her in alarm and paused the movie. "A drunk driver hit her and it looks to be serious." Topanga said looking at the paramedics assessing her in the vehicle. "Topanga can you please be with her in the truck I'm on my way to the hospital right now." Katy's voice was cracking. "I'll make sure of it. Bye." Katy said bye and hung up.
"Maya is in the hospital we have to go." Katy was crying. Shawn went to grab the keys on the table next to the door. He grabbed Katy's and his coats from the coat rack next to the table. Katy grabbed her coat and opened the door.
Shawn closed it behind her. They rushed to the minivan parked in the street. Shawn reversed out of the driveway and made a left. He reached over holding her hand. Just thinking about that small blonde girl getting hurt made his stomach curl.
He cared a lot about her and was like a daughter to him. He had to keep it in for the both of them even though he felt like crying a river.
Lucas was in his room on his bed throwing the baseball up and down with his hand. He thinks of the two girls. Riley is kind and innocent and that he always liked her for it. I mean she fell on his lap. But then... Maya is something else entirely. She makes fun of him and she is more loyal and caring than anyone he ever met.
Matter of fact, she is beautiful on the inside and out. She pushed Riley into his lap in the first place. She thinks she deserves nothing and would only would put Riley's happiness before anyone else even herself.
That's when he came to the realization that it's Maya he loves. He wants to give her every inch of happiness she deserves. He wants to make her happy more than anything in the world. He wants to hold her hand and kiss her. He is all the more determined to head towards her house when his phone rings.
He sees that it is Zay calling him. He picks it up. "Hey Zay what's up?" "Lucas you need to go to the hospital now." Zay answered frantically. "What's wrong?" Lucas immediately gets up from his bed and puts on his sneakers and jacket noting the worriedness in his best friend's voice.
Zay took a deep breath. "Maya she got in a car accident..." that's all Lucas heard and he replied he will be there. Maya was hurt. Maya was injured. He raced down the stairs. He told his mom that they need to go to the hospital and that Maya was hurt.
Lucas's mom Liz also cared about Maya like she was one of her own. She grabs the keys from the counter and they head out. Traffic wasn't all that bad and they made it there in fifteen minutes. Lucas runs in the hospital.
He sees Riley crying and hugging Auggie on her lap. He sees Zay with a sullen look and Smackle holding Farkle's hand. Maya's parents looked disheveled and the Matthews weren't any better. He came just in time as the door opened...
