Spoken Of
Chapter Two
Riley's POV
I've been ignoring Farkle since the kiss. I don't know what came to me, I was just too embarrassed to ever face him again. Maya noticed my sudden separation from Farkle, and always climbed through the bay window to ask me about what happened, but I never answered her.
It was Monday morning, which meant school. Five more days of torture and - Farkle. I grabbed my backpack and exited the room, not wanting to face this situation anymore. I met up with Maya at my locker. She just smiled at me and waved.
"Hey Riles!" she called.
"Hi," I spoke silently.
"Come on, you can tell me. What's wrong? Why are you ignoring Farkle?"
"It's nothing. I'll tell you later…"
I walked in the classroom followed by Maya, just to meet eyes with Farkle. I quickly averted my eyes and sat down, hearing Farkle sigh behind me. What's wrong with him? It's not like he got rejected.
"Riley-," he started.
I ignored his voice as my dad started the history lesson.
It was soon the end of school, and I waved goodbye to Maya, making her get the hint that I didn't want any visitors.
My dad drove me home as I ran straight up to my room to start on my homework. I heard a tap on my bay window. Seriously? What did I do to deserve this? Maybe he'll just think the window's locked.
Yeah, right. I never leave my window open.
I tried to ignore him, but heard his voice echoing through the glass windows.
"Riley, if you don't acknowledge me, I'll just let myself in," He chuckled.
I sighed and turned towards him, motioning for him to come in.
"Riles, we need to talk about what happened at the New Year's party…"
"What is there to talk about? You rejected me. Just leave, Farkle. It was a bad idea to come over in the first place."
"Riley, you need to tell me how you feel. Right now."
"I already told you, Farkle. Don't make me embarrass myself again."
"You didn't embarrass yourself."
He walked over to me, and stroked my cheek. I moved his hand away, but he just placed it on my face again. This time on my chin.
"You're my best friend, Riley. I've loved you since the first grade."
"No, Farkle. You only love me as a friend. I can get over what I feel. Don't worry about it. Now, please, leave."
"I won't leave until you talk to me. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Farkle asked.
"I didn't tell you because you just started to date Smackle, and I was still confused about my feelings towards Lucas and you."
"Riley-"
"Just forget about it. My feelings are gone, I'm over you."
"That quickly?"
"Yup. You rejected me. I have to move on."
I gently pushed him out of the bay window. I closed the door, and locked it.
But I knew I couldn't deny that I still loved him. I lied. Lied to Farkle, who's been there for me since I was in the first grade. I loved him still. But he's with Smackle…
A/N: Time to skip to history class the next day.
I sat, listening to my dad ramble on and on about something I didn't really care about. At least not for today. I was too busy thinking about how I was going to get over Farkle. Soon, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around, and saw Farkle passing me a note. Was it from him?
"It's from Charlie," He whispered, knowing I wouldn't take it if I knew the note was from him.
I took it from his hand and opened the note and read it:
Hi Riley,
I heard you got over Lucas, wanna go out?
Charlie
