Maya, Farkle, Cory, and Topanga were sitting outside of Riley's room. They were all waiting patiently for the first word to be spoken. They were all pretty tired considering it was 9:30 p.m and the two have been in the room since 7:00. All four of them fell asleep at around 9:45, they didn't know the first words would be spoken only 15 minutes later.
*****Back to when they first speak*****
"Look, we've spoken to each other plenty of times before, why is it so hard now?," Riley said.
"I don't know, but can we talk about why we're really locked in here because I think we both know why," Lucas replied.
"What are we supposed to say, we broke up," both Riley and Lucas winced when she said this," Why did we?," Riley questioned. She meant the last part to be a thought in her head, she hadn't realized she said it aloud until Lucas looked her straight in the eye.
"I don't know why we broke up. We thought it would be for the better but it turns out, everything has just gone downhill since then. You're the one who brought it up though," he said kind of in a harsh tone. He didn't realize how harsh he had sounded until he saw a tear slide down Riley's cheek. There was a long silence after he said this.
"You think I wanted to break up!,"she finally said breaking the silence," I waited for all of 7th grade for you to ask me out and you think I wanted to blow that! Really Lucas, you think I would cause both of us that much pain. You know why I brought it up?," she yelled at him.
"No," he said looking down at the floor.
"Because you told Farkle you felt like we were rushing things. I wanted to bring up breaking up first so I wouldn't experience so much pain when you would eventually bring it up, turns out I caused myself more pain then I would've ever felt if you brought it up," she told him.
He just sat there with a blank expression. It was true, he told Farkle he felt like things were being rushed, he thought they've ran out of "firsts." They already went on their first date, they had their first kiss, they experienced their first time having to comfort each other, and last but not least, their first I love you. He thought they ran out of special memories. He told Farkle this after they said "I love you" to each other.
"How did you find out?," he asked softly.
"You really expected Farkle not to tell Maya, they've been together since the middle of 7th grade. And of course Maya told me, she told me the reason too. You really thought we ran out of firsts?," she asked more softly this time.
"Yeah, I thought we ran out of special moments. I was scared of rushing things, we told each other 'I love you' in 8th grade. Not most couples do that. I thought we would be done with all of our special moments before the school year ended," he explained.
"Lucas, we could never run out special moments. We obviously meant the 'I love you' because we wouldn't have said it if we hadn't meant it. Lucas, if you felt like we were rushing things, why didn't you talk to me? We could've avoided all of this," Riley said barely over a whisper.
"I know, I was afraid you would think I was crazy and break up with me but I guess we did that anyway," he said in the same tone as Riley's.
"Well we experienced another first," she said to Lucas.
"Our first break up," he finished for her, "And now we can experience our first get back together," he said hopefully.
"Is that your way of asking to be your girlfriend again?," she asked him.
"Yeah, I guess it is. Riley will you be my girlfriend…... again?," he asked with a small chuckle at the end.
"Of course," She replied back to him. He went over to her and kissed her. It was a long, passionate kiss that put all of their feelings they've been feeling for the past few months behind it. It was now 12:00 a.m and they were both super tired.
Riley went under the covers of her bed and Lucas went next to her. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed the top her head. They were both out like a light, they didn't know how tired they really were.
Maya, Farkle, Cory, and Topanga woke up at 1:00 a.m. They didn't hear any talking so they decided to peek into RIley's room. They saw Lucas's arms around Riley and Riley looking so peaceful.
Cory told Maya and Farkle to sleep in the living room and he would call their parents. He told Topanga to go into their room and he would be their in a minute.
He called Maya, Farkle, and Lucas's parents and told them they crashed at his apartment and their parents were fine with it.
He walked to his room and took one last look at Riley and Lucas. He smiled at the two and went to go to sleep.
Riley woke up at 7:00 a.m and saw herself in Lucas's arms. She recalled everything from last night and thought I have the best friends, family, and boyfriend ever. Then she fell back into her peaceful sleep.
