Maya's POV

I woke up on Saturday, November 4th, earlier than usual, but there was a good reason to. I went into the kitchen and grabbed a cookbook. I opened it to the crepes section. I made simple crepes and then put sliced peanut butter and bananas in it and put maple syrup on top after I folded it. I took it to our room and put it on her nightstand.

"KC, wake up!" I said. She stirred a bit but opened her eyes.

"Morning," she said.

"Happy Birthday!" I said. She looked over and saw the crepes. She got a big smile on her face.

"Thanks Maya," she said. She sat up and started eating the crepes. "Is anyone else up?"

"Nope," I said.

"Maya!" Our mom called. "Were you in the kitchen?" We went into the kitchen.

"Yeah, I was making KC breakfast."

"Oh ok," mom said. "Happy birthday, Katy Carmela!" She hugged KC.

"Thanks mom."

"My oldest baby's 18," mom said.

"Mom," KC said.

"Well you are," I said with a laugh.

"I know," KC said. "Thank you for giving me life mom."

"You're welcome," she said. "Oh, be right back." Mom went into another room and brought out a big wrapped box.

"Mom, you didn't have to get me anything."

"I know, but I wanted to," mom said. "It's also from both Shawn and I." KC unwrapped the present. It was a keyboard piano.

"I have wanted this for a long time," KC said. "I never had the money. Thank you!" KC hugged mom. "But how did you know?"

"Well, we talked to Lucas," mom said. "And he said you'd always play the piano at the church every chance you got. He also said you talked about how if you had the money, you'd get one."

"He remembers little details," KC said. "He's such a great brother!"

"You should get ready," I said.

"Why?" KC asked.

"We're going over to Riley's," I said.

"Okay."

We got to Riley's at about 9am. We let her walk in first. Everyone shouted, "Happy Birthday!"

"Thanks guys!"

Topanga's POV

Everyone sat down and started talking. I asked Riley to help me finish preparing the food, so I could put it in the oven. Derrick, KC's boyfriend, showed up shortly after her and her family did. He spoke very respectfully to Shawn and Katy. He seems like a nice guy.

Farkle's POV

I started talking to KC.

"So, how's your birthday been so far?"

"Good," KC said.

"That's good."

"We're all going to a movie after the party as a group. You wanna go with us?"

"Maybe."

"You could bring Derrick."

"I'll see."

"Hey, KC, Maya," Shawn said. "Your mom and I are going to go get the birthday cake."

"Okay," they said in unison.

"We'll be back in a bit. We're taking Luke with us," Mrs. Hunter said.

"Okay, let him pick the ice cream," KC said. They agreed and left.

"I'm going to go get some punch," KC said, standing up. Derrick grabbed her by her hips and pulled her onto his lap. "Derrick! Let go," she snapped at him. She broke his grasp and went to the kitchen. I debated on whether I should say something. I decided I should.

"That was inappropriate," I said.

"Excuse me?" Derrick said.

"What you just did," I said. "She was going to get a drink, and you did that."

"Why don't you shut up and mind your own business."

"She obviously didn't want you to," I said. "You should respect her."

"I will do what I want in my relationship," he said. What exactly did he mean by that? KC hadn't come back yet. She was getting punch, why isn't she back? I glanced in the kitchen. KC drank from her punch and poured more in her glass. Am I the only one who noticed it? "What do you think you're doing looking at my girlfriend?!" Derrick said.

"I was just checking to see if she was coming back over here, yet," I said. I thought that was a reasonable answer. Apparently not.

"You don't need to," he said. "She's not going to sit on your lap. She's mine."

"I wouldn't want her to, I actually respect boundaries," I said. "I just think you should respect her enough to not do something that makes her uncomfortable like that." That must have been the last straw for him. He pounced and grabbed me by my shirt collar.

"I told you to mind your own business," he said. 'Now you're gonna get it."

"Derrick, let go of him," Lucas said.

"What are you doing, Derrick?!" KC demanded. "Let go of him!" He threw me to the ground.

Marley's POV

I was talking to Maya when we saw Derrick grab Farkle. He looked like he was about to beat him up. Lucas, and then KC, told him to let go of him. He threw Farkle to the ground.

"Fine," Derrick said. "We need to talk." He grabbed her arm and led her into the hallway. Soon we heard shouting.

"He's one of my friends!" I heard KC shout at one point.

It kept on until Derrick erupted from the hall and left the apartment, slamming the door in the process. KC came out shortly after. She was crying but was wiping her eyes.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Why does everyone keep asking that?"

"Because you don't seem like it."

"I'll be fine," KC said. "I'll talk to him later, when he's cooled down."

"You wanna open presents?" I asked.

"Sure," she said.

"Here," I said, handing her a present. "Open mine first."

"Okay," she said. She opened it. "A journal?"

"A song journal," I said. "So instead of having a bunch of loose papers, you can write them in there and won't lose them."

"Thanks," she said. "This definitely proves you pay attention," she added with a laugh. We both laughed.

"Open mine next," Topanga said. KC took the present. It was really small. She opened it, and there was a key in it. Mr. and Mrs. Hunter came in just then.

"What's this for?" KC asked.

"It's a key to Topanga's," Topanga said. "You had asked early on if you could have a job there. I didn't have a spot then. But now, I've promoted Katy to manager, so I'll need a new waitress. You still up for it?"

"Sure," KC said. "Thank you, Topanga."

"Now mine and Riley's," Lucas said. She opened it and it was a wood carved heart with:

Jaxon M. Friar

Forever in Our Hearts

Carved into it.

"Thank you," KC said, hugging the both of them.

"I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot," Riley said.

"It's fine," KC said. "And just know even though we're not really friends, that doesn't mean we can't get along."

"I know."

Farkle's POV

"Here's mine," I said. I handed her the envelope. She opened it. She read it and hugged me.

"What does it say?" Maya asked.

"It says," KC said. "The 'Jaxon Friar Foundation' will go into effect on January 29th, 2018. It will aid victims effected by accidents caused by drunk drivers. It is a nonprofit organization."

"I talked to Lucas and my mom, and we were able to get most of it ready," I said. "I wanted to give you something that matters."

"Thank you, Farkle," KC said.

"You're welcome."

"The Lasagna's ready!" Topanga said. We all sat down and ate. Topanga revealed that this was KC's favorite food. We all talked throughout the dinner.

"So, you wanna go to the movie with us?" I asked.

"Sure," KC said. KC, Marley, Riley, Lucas, Maya, Zay, and I left for the movie.

Topanga's POV

Cory, Shawn, Katy, Auggie, Ava, and I cleaned up and then sat down. Ava, Auggie, and Aaron went to play in Auggie's room.
