Chapter 4
"Are you okay?" Riley asked her best friend. The two were seated at the bay window and Maya had a somber look on her face.
"What is he doing here?" Maya asked.
"I don't know," Riley said. "I had no idea that he was coming over."
"Why does this always have to happen to me?" Maya sighed. "I just want a normal life."
"Then go out with Zay," Riley said.
"What?" Maya asked.
"Look, you and Josh would be great together. I absolutely think you would but it's not fair to wait. You decided on someday but why should you just sit and wait? You need to live your life too," Riley explained.
"I really like Josh though," Maya said.
"Then go out there and tell him," Riley said. "You have to decide so Zay doesn't get hurt."
"Maybe I should just go out with Zay and see what happens?" Maya shrugged and then walked off to the living room when she heard Zay's voice.
"Hey," Lucas walked into Riley's room and took a seat next to her.
"Hi," Riley smiled.
"So, she decided to give Zay a chance?" Lucas asked.
"Yup," Riley nodded.
"Never saw those two together," Lucas said.
"I think they could be good together," Riley said.
"I guess," Lucas shrugged. "I'm going to go meet Farkle and then we can head out for pizza, okay?"
"Yeah sure," Riley nodded.
Riley watched her boyfriend walk away and felt a twinge in her stomach. Was he jealous? Did Lucas really get jealous over Maya and Zay as a couple? Riley shook her head and stood up. She was letting those girls get to her again. She had to stop this. She had to stop doubting her relationship before she ruined it. She grabbed her jacket off the chair and walked out in the same way Lucas did. She needed to have a good time. She needed to start having faith in her relationship.

"So, how was the date?" Farkle asked the next day. He was sitting in a booth at Topanga's with Riley, Lucas, and Maya.
"It was good," Maya said as she twirled the straw in her smoothie.
"But?" Lucas asked.
"But what?" Maya asked.
"Oh come on, Maya. We can tell that there is something more you want to add to that statement," Lucas said. Riley just watched the two interact quietly. Farkle looked over at the quiet brunette before looking back at the other two.
"How can you tell I have something more to say, Huckleberry?" Maya raised an eyebrow.
"I just can," Lucas shrugged. "So what is it?"
"I had a really good time but all I could think about was Josh," Maya admitted.
"Maya!" Riley exclaimed.
"I know!" Maya groaned and dropped her head onto the table.
"You really have to make a decision," Farkle said.
"I will," Maya promised. "I just want what you all have."
"You will get it," Riley promised and smiled when Lucas grabbed her hand under the table. It made her feel silly for getting jealous.

"Hey princess," Lucas climbed through Riley's bay window and smiled at the sight of her. She was wearing an old t-shirt, sweat pants, and her brown hair was pulled up into a messy bun on the top of her head.
"Lucas! What are you doing here?" Riley jumped off her bed and rushed over to kiss her boyfriend.
"I have something for you," Lucas said.
"You didn't have to get me anything," Riley said as she sat next to him at the bay window.
"I was out with Farkle and Zay," Lucas started to explain before pulling a brown bag out from behind his back.
"What's this?" Riley asked as she took the bag and started to open it. Inside was a piece of chocolate cake and a Coke. "You bought me a cake and soda?"
"I thought you might like it," Lucas shrugged.
"It's perfect," Riley promised and leaned forward to kiss him. "Let me go get two forks and we can share."
"No need," Lucas said before pulling two forks out of his pocket. "I come prepared."
"You really do think of everything," Riley crossed her legs underneath her and grabbed one of the forks from him. She took a bite of the cake and let out a content sigh. "This is so good."
"It really is," Lucas agreed after taking a bite.
"So, what do you think of Maya and Zay as a possible couple?" Riley asked.
"Well I don't think they will ever be as cute as us," Lucas said.
"Lucas," Riley playfully rolled her eyes and laughed.
"I can actually kind of see them together," Lucas admitted.
"Really? You didn't seem to think that last night," Riley said.
"Is that why you were jealous at Topanga's today?" Lucas asked.
"What? I wasn't jealous!" Riley protested.
"Riles," Lucas raised an eyebrow.
"Fine, I was kind of jealous. I didn't want to be though," Riley sighed.
"I don't want you to be," Lucas said. "I don't know how else to prove that it's you I want."
"I think the cake helps," Riley said before taking another bite. "I feel like I'm always apologizing but I'm sorry for getting jealous."
"I'm sorry for giving you reason to be," Lucas said.
"It wasn't because of you," Riley admitted.
"What?" Lucas asked. Riley took a deep breath and then explained what Sarah and Darby said in the bathroom. When she was done explaining she tried to gauge her boyfriend's face for a reaction. She could see the anger start to take over her features. "They really said that?" Lucas gritted his teeth in anger. "Why didn't you tell me when it happened?"
"I guess I was scared to," Riley played with the fork in her hand and looked down.
"Does anyone else know?" Lucas asked.
"Smackle and Farkle. Smackle was there when it happened and she told Farkle," Riley explained.
"I can't believe they would say something like that. Why can't people mind their own business?" Lucas snapped. "I'm going to say something to them Monday."
"Please don't," Riley pleaded. Lucas looked up at his girlfriend's face and could instantly feel himself start to calm down. "I just wanted to be honest with you."
"I always want you to be honest with me," Lucas said.
"I want the same thing," Riley said.
"No more secrets?" Lucas asked. Riley stretched out her hand and Lucas grabbed out and laughed.
"No more secrets," Riley promised before shaking his hand in agreement. The two let out a laugh. It was the kind of laugh they could both get used to for a long time.

"I can't believe all of us are in relationships now," Zay said when the six friends were seated together at lunch that Monday.
"So you two made it official?" Farkle asked Maya and Zay.
"Yeah," Maya said before she smiled at her boyfriend. It felt right. She knew that Riley was right. It was time for her to start living for herself.
"We aren't going to have to do giant group dates, right?" Smackle asked.
"Smackle!" Farkle exclaimed.
"What? I don't want to intrude on either of their relationships," Smackle shrugged. Farkle just shook his head at his girlfriend.
"Well I think a group date is in order," Riley clapped her hands excited and Lucas laughed at his girlfriend's enthusiasm.
"Great," Smackle groaned. "I mean, awesome!"
"What would we do without you?" Maya laughed at her genius friend.
"Riley?" A voice interrupted the conversation. The six best friends looked up and let out collective gasps.
"Charlie Gardner," Lucas mumbled and Riley quickly grabbed his hand when she saw the angry look in his eyes.
