Gossip Girl (voiceover): According to the Catholic Church, mortal sin can only be absolved through The Sacred Act of Confession, but it looks like a certain W.A.S.P. Princess has recently found herself desperately in need of a little unburdening. And who is the man upstairs to discriminate?

Riley could believe how she had acted last night. Riley is sitting in a room with a wall that separates a priest in the other side of the wall. "Forgive me father, for I have sinned. It's been... A while, since my last confession."

The Priest: "What troubles you my child?"

Riley thinks back to the limo. What started out as kissing turned in to a heated make out session which then turn in to erm..umm well that is why she was there today.

"After being broken up with my boyfriend/long time best friend for like exactly 20 minutes, I succumbed to inebriation, performed at a speakeasy and surrendered my virtue to a self-absorbed ass, who also happens to be one of my closet friend and best friend to my ex-boyfriend. Oh god" Riley cried

The Priest: "Ahem."

Riley: "Sorry, truthfully I'm not even Catholic."

The Priest: "You don't say."

"But losing my virginity to Lucas Friar? I wouldn't be surprise if our friendship is completely ruined of this. Everyone knows he doesn't acknowledge the same girl twice. Tell me what do you and God think I should do to make this the lease humiliating as humanity possible." She hoped to god that gossip girl doesn't find out. Her reputation would be tarnished because in everyone's eyes she and Farkle were still dating.

The Priest: "From what you say if you and this boy are friends I would give him the benefit of the doubt. He might surprise you."

Riley had to think about it; she was so panicked about running their friend ship she didn't consider see how Lucas felt after all this. "Thank you father, it was very good advice. You don't grant birthday wishes, do you?"

The Priest: "I'm a Priest, not a Genie."

"Well, the next time you talk to him, would you ask him, make sure Farkle is doing ok?" she was still worried about him. She knows the kind of expectation the Minkus's had for their son. Plus she needed to talk to him about how to announce on gossip girl about their breakup. She didn't what anybody coming across as the bad guy.

Riley walked down the stair from church wearing all black. She puts on her sunglasses and walks across the road. She senses a car behind her and sees Lucas coming by in his limo.

"Well, this is the last place I'd expect to find you." Lucas tried to play with her.

"Very funny, Lucas" She said coolly. Then ignored him and continues walking. She didn't want to talk to Lucas right now. She had to get everything settled with Farkle and her birthday before she would open that can of worms.

Lucas frowned, he didn't know why she was acting like this but he tried again "Would you consider avoiding me over breakfast?"

"Sorry, but as is tradition on the day before my birthday, I'm heading to the jeweler's to put some pieces on hold for my parents and..." she stopped herself, normally she would say Farkle but they are no longer together. He has np reason to buy her anything.

For some reason Lucas got angry "were you going to say Farkle? Oh I don't think he'll be singing "Happy Birthday" this year." he said a little too coldly.

Riley caught his tone, "Together or not Farkle is still my friend and so what if I was going to say Farkle; up until recently it had always been that way." She bit back. Lucas just scoffed.

Lucas didn't know why she was getting so sensitive about Riley relationship with Farkle and seeing her dismiss him so easily. Normally it would be him doing that but after last night's events he just couldn't get her out of his head. "Riley can you please get in the limo we need to talk about this."

"I'd rather nor Lucas. Gossip Girl still doesn't know about our breakup and I'd rather not have her find out about our transgressions before everyone knows about the breakup; I'd be labeled as a cheater and my life would be ruined. Plus I don't think your best friend would still be your best friend if he knew." Why could Lucas see that this wasn't a game to her?

"If he knew how much I enjoyed the removal of a certain chastity belt in the back of this very limo?" he said lewdly. He loved to push her buttons.

'Ugh' riley thought. "You know what Lucas from this moment forward, the events of last night will never be mentioned again. Is that clear?" if he was going to treat it as a joke they she was going to shut it down.

Lucas was taken aback by her declaration. Forget last night? No way could he ever forget it but it made him mad to think that she would. so he continued, "Not as clear as the memory of you purring in my ear, which I have been replaying over and over."

'I guess the priest was wrong' Riley thought Lucas and I friendship will never be the same I am just a notch under his belt now. "Well erase the tape, because as far as I'm concerned it never happened."

Lucas was seething, "I'll see you at your party tonight." This conversation was not over

"You're officially uninvited." Riley picked up her speed and headed to the jewelry store.

"Never stopped me before." Lucas yelled at her fleeting form.

Gossip Girl (voiceover): Speak of the devil, and he doth appear, wearing his trademark scarf. Careful R, hell hath no fury like a Lucas Friar scorned.

Riley comes out of the elevator and leans on the wall, she scrolls down on her phone and looks at Farkle's phone number then she sees Topanga in her office rummaging thru papers.

Riley: "Hey Mom. I just got back from the Jeweler's and I have to say..."

Topanga: "Riley honey, you're home. Can you come here for a second? You father and I have to talk to you."

She felt a cold sweat run thru her body. 'Uh Oh'

"Riley I must say we are disappointed that your breakup with Farkle." Topanga slaps her husband's arm and he grumps a 'yea' but Riley could tell her dad was happy about the breakup. "Yea I am sorry for how it all came out but we had actually broken up a while ago but Farkle need time to tell his parent"

"I see" Topanga said "and there is no chance of you two getting back together?"

Riley picked her next work wisely hoping her mom would push an further "yea he did something that I couldn't forgive him for"

Topanga was curious "and what was that…"

Riley was torn to bring it up seeing at it was not so long about that it happened to her parents, "he cheated on me" she could see Topanga turn white when she said that know it was a touch-y subject she added "but I still love him and he is still my friend I just don't see a future with him" but she left out that it was with Maya.

Topanga didn't press any further and Riley went up to her room. She needed to see how Farkle was doing.

"Oh and mom please don't stop helping the Minkus's on their case, they are still friends."

...

Stuart, Jennifer and the lawyer are talking about the upcoming case against Minkus int'l.

Stuart: "I don't know what we are going to do if Topanga isn't the lead lawyer on our case. She is the best there is!"

Jennifer: "don't worry honey we'll figure something out."

Lawyer : "I've compiled a list of other lawyers with good references."

Stuart: "there is no one else that can take on a case of this caliber! If we don't have her we won't win and we'll lose the company for sure."

Farkle was standing near the door, he felt really bad about last night. "Dad they are still our friends I am sure if you just talk to her…"

Stuart: "You don't get to talk Farkle; you had one job; stay with Riley and you couldn't even do that"

He was taken back by his dad harshness. but riley and him were still friends "I'll talk to Riley well get this all worked out."

Stuart: "unless it getting back together with that girl then I don't want to hear it."

Jennifer: "Farkle, come with me; there is something we need to talk about"

They enter another room and his mom sits him down

Jennifer: "Riley's birthday party is tonight isn't it?"

"Yeah." he was curious to see what they were going to talk about.

Jennifer: "I was thinking maybe you should give her something special."

Farkle sighed thinking about how he was going to make up what happened last night to Riley, "I'm sure she's already picked out something at the Jewelry store and put it on hold."

Jennifer: "Something more special than that." She take off her rings and puts it in front of Farkle. He was astounded, surely his parents couldn't be that desperate, "Mom that's a family heirloom. I'm not giving it to Riley, it's an engagement ring."

Jennifer: "I'm not asking you to propose, but it's important that Riley knows how much you value her loyalty."

Farkle: "Her loyalty or her mother's?"

Jennifer: "What difference does it make? One day we'll all be family and they won't have a choice in these matters."

Farkle: "I don't know."

Jennifer: "May I remind you it was your own rash actions that got us into this predicament?"

Farkle: "We're in this predicament because dad made a bad business deal. I was trying to help him."

Jennifer: "Then help him. Your father's acting the way that he is because he's scared. He needs you so much right now, more than he ever has. We all do."

She gives him the ring. And Farkle doesn't know what to do or how to think. He want to help his family but he can't help but think that if he doesn't stop know his parent will control the rest of his life.

Gossip Girl (voiceover): Whoever thought monarchy was dead didn't realize it just changed zip codes. So what will it be Farkle, Riley Matthews's hand or your father's head?

Riley was looking in her closet while Maya was on the bed. Maya had just arrives and was telling her about her time last night with Charlie. "I can't believe you slept with him. Please tell me you got your flu shot this year." Riley said theatrically.

"ha-ha very funny Riley. It was actually very romantic and her wasn't too bad himself." Maya remember back to last nights events.

"But was he the best you've ever had." She inquired knowing her blond best friend has had her fair share of partners.

Maya: "I don't think I could tell you that; it's different with every person. Why what do you think it should feel like"

"I don't know…" Riley goes thinks back to her night with Lucas, "I guess it would start of like summer" he voice trials off. "and then a breeze comes up (pause) and then it rains for like two seconds. Then everything glows and there's a rainbow. Then he like knows exactly what you want before you do. His touch burn you skin like fire yet he is as gentle as a summer rain. And his kiss leave you wanting more and your heart swells up and you feel like you are on cloud 9…" she could have continued on her little fantasy land she had with Lucas but she saw her friends quizzical face and stopped. "You know something like that i Would guess" she finished nervously.

Maya looks at her friend stunned at here vivid description: "yea ideally it would be all that."

Now Maya was thinking about how Charlie didn't make her feel anything like that. But there was one boy that did come close. "so have you and Farkle officially broken up.

"I still have to call him to plan out how to tell Gossip girl. I don't want either of use to come out as the bad guy, but he is acting very strangely still" she hoped he had figured everything out with is family. She didn't want any more surprises.

Maya: "But he's still coming to your party right?"

Riley: "I would hope he could come. We're still friends. but if it's too much for him then I wouldn't make him come; just a call at midnight will suffice"

Maya: You're such a good friend Riles. Really, hey um, I'll just pick you up later and we can go together to the party.

Riley was on her laptop searching 'breakup scandals' hoping to find some info on how to handle her and Farkle breakup publically. Then she hears her phone ringing and sees it Farkle.

Riley (On the Phone): "Hi are you okay? Uh, I've been texting you all day."

Farkle (On the Phone): "Yeah, I'm-I'm fine. Thanks I um, just been a little busy." His head was going a million mile per minute on what to do.

Riley: "I know yesterday went a little crazy and I am sorry it came out that way to our families but you went behind my back when you didn't tell your dad about us. They were practically marrying us right there!"

"Yeah, I know I am sorry" he said gloomily.

Riley sighs. "look I just wanted to check on you, see if you need anything. It must have been tough night with you and your parents." There was a short silence. And Farkle kept looking at his mother ring.

Farkle: "Um... Riley, do you think we've been a little. A little hasty with the whole breakup?"

Riley was surprise at his statement "where is this coming from Farkle; we broke up like a month ago. Yesterday was supposed to be our coming out but it looks like Gossip Girl didn't catch wind of it."

"Yeah yeah, I-I you're right. I'm sorry I um, I shouldn't have brought it up." Farkle was feeling very small and useless; if he couldn't get back together with Riley then his parents would think him a failure.

Riley: "Farkle, I know we have a lot of history together, and I hope you know that I will always be there for you. But after yesterday I think I just need a little time apart. I was very hurt by what you did. We don't do that to each other us against our parents remember."

Farkle: "I am sorry Riley…. so I take it you wouldn't want me to go to your birthday party?"

"Of course you can come!" Riley laughs at his him. "But anyway I wanted to talk about how we should annouce our break."

"umm can we talk later Riley, I have some stuff to do my parents" he lied. With his mom's ultimatium he needed more time.

"is everything ok Farkle?" she said concerend.

"yea I am just a little tired" he exhailed. Riley didnt buy his excuse but diodnt press and futher "ok well if you come or not I will come up with a story that doesn't make either of us look bad from the breakup. Just as long as there are no scandles between then, we sould be good" she said jokingly about the last part.

"Right" Farkle ended the call and went to see someoth he could talk to.

Farkle knocked on Lucas's door; he really needed some advice with that do to about Riley and his parents. Lucas stood on the other side as quiets as can be and scared to open it and face his best friend. They hadn't talked since yesterday morning and Lucas was kind of feeling guilty about sleeping with Riley

"Come on, man. I can hear you breathing on the other side of the door. Is she anybody you can get rid of? I just really need to talk to you man please." Farkle sounded anxious.

Finally Lucas relented and opened the door. "Farkle" he stated.

Farkle: "Where's the girl?"

Lucas sits down and hides the gift bag he got for Riley. "In my dreams; I was trying to get some shut-eye. What's on your mind?" he says slyly

Farkle: "It's my mom."

Lucas: "Sounds Freudian."

Farkle: (Sighs) "she wants me to give Riley her ring."

"What? You guys broke up." Lucas voice sounded a little throatier than unusual he hoped it didn't show.

Farkle exhales, "Yeah I Know, but I mean, I figured that since it hasn't been posted on gossip girl it's not real. Everyone still thinks we are together and I was thinking of prolonging the facade so my mom would get of my back but Riley is adamant the we announce out breakup tonight."

"Dude" he said hesitantly, he did want show how much he disliked this, "where is your head?"

Farkle: "Spinning. My mom wants me to give her ring to Riley so Topanga doesn't pull out of their business deal. And my dad is having a meltdown about the lawsuit."

'Ring, as in engagement ring' Lucas thought. A surge of jealousy went through his body but tamed himself so that it wouldn't show. "Yeah. I'm sorry about all that but look, if you're done with Riley be done. Don't cave to your parents' wishes if they're not your desires." Lucas was having a hard time being supportive. He just wanted to tell him he shouldn't get back with Riley.

"Excuse me? Where's my boy? Seal the Deal, tap that ass, money marries bigger money?" Farkle didn't know where this was coming form. Normally Lucas is always pushing him to attend to Riley.

"Look, I care about three things, Nathaniel. Money the pleasures money brings me and you." although it's looking like Riley is replacing Farkle on that list. "I'm just trying to have your back here. Your parents have been controlling you your whole life; if it doesn't end now when will it ever?" Lucas really hoped that Farkle takes his advices. Not just because he wanted Riley for himself but because he is going to lose her friendship if he keeps using her.

….

The party was as one of Sarah older brothers loft. It was a japanese/anime theme and was in full swing when Riley and Maya got there. Drinks were being poured. Salmon was being chopped and sushi was being made. There was origami napkins, the lady passing hors d'oeuvres and people were piling up presents on the table. There is a cartoon on a big screen and some people are playing guitar hero in the living room. Riley and Maya come from the elevator and start laughing.

Sarah, Darby and Iz runs to them wearing a pilot costume "Hi Maya! Riley! Happy Birthday!" they say excitingly.

Riley: "Oh my God Sarah. Your brother's place looks fabulous."

Sarah: "Yeah I know right?"

Maya: "I know it's incredible. Come on guys let's check it out."

There is a man chopping sashimi and rolling it in a mat making sushi. The girls go to it and he then gives one to each of them. "Thank you" Riley was to the man.

Maya: "Hey so where's Farkle?"

Riley: "He might to come later but either way I have announcement to make. What about Charlie?"

"Oh uh he said he's coming but I haven't talked to him since this morning." Maya had been thinking all day about what Riley said. She didn't really feel all those feeling when she was with Charlie. Yea she liked him but now she was having second thoughts

Lucas arrived to Riley party with a mission to talk to her.

Maya: "Oh there's Lucas I bet he knows where Farkle is."

Riley froze. She couldn't believe he had the nerve to come. "oh look party guest who need my attention" and she walk towards the balcony leaving Maya.

Maya just shrugs and walks past him greeting him with a 'huckberry' and sits down to text Charlie.

Brushing past some of the party people Lucas starts following her and ignores Maya greeting. He spots Riley standing near a short wall that has a view of New York.

He takes a breath to compose himself and put a smirk on his face "Are you ready for your present?" He lean in and whispers in her ear. Riley rolls her eyes and takes him by the hair. "'Ow! If you wanted to play rough, all you had to do was ask." He said a little harshly. Some kids from school walk past them wishing her a 'happy birthday'. She lets go of his hair while speaking to her guests "Hi, hello there…Happy Birthday to me." She sighs and turns her attention back to Lucas. "You nauseate me."

"All this talk about you staging the perfect breakup or the world will end; it's starting to look like you are just delaying the announcement to you peers. Face it, it's over Farkle is going to keep this up as long as he can" He felt harsh saying it but he wanted to get his point across.

Riley felt like Lucas was giving her mixed signals. 'Why did he care' Riley thought, "You sound like a jealous boyfriend."

He gave a nervous laugh "Yeah right, you wish."

Riley did know if it was the way he said it or the sad look in his eyes. But it's as if she had a revelation. "Nooo (Pause) You wish."

He felt a nervous sweat. She always could read right thru him, "Please. You forget who you're talking to."

"So do you." she snapped him. Could he really have feeling about what happened the other night? She didn't think he had feeing for anything. "Do you... like me?" she said skeptically.

"Define like." He said unsurely.

Riley's eyes widen. Lucas…liking her… there is no way that could be possible. Sure they were; friend really close friends but he was a womanizing bad boy. She had trouble finding words but eventually she let out an "Oh. Uh, you're kidding."

"How do you think I feel? I haven't slept, I feel sick like there's something in my stomach, fluttering."

"Butterflies?" she defined it for him "Oh No, No, No, No, No, No, No. This can't be happening right now." 'He wasn't kidding' she thought. Riley didn't have time to think about the possibility that kinda, maybe Lucas might like her even just a little bit.

"Believe me no one is more surprised or confused than I am." He confessed.

Riley had to regain control of the situation "Lucas, you know that I adore all of God's creatures and the metaphors that they inspire, but this is all too much for me right now. I need to call Farkle and think about what you just told me."

"Fine." He said bitterly. He wasn't expecting their talk to end up like this. And he want expecting to somewhat reveal the he might like her.

...

Farkle outside the building and was taking his time going to the party. He knew that if her went up it yould mean his parents won beacue he would do what they asked but he also know that if he went home he would have to tell them him and Riley were really not getting back together. He see a girl with an indicisive look on her face. She sees spots him and tries to walk back but he calls her.

Farkle:" Hey you look familiar.." he thinks to himself "your Dan's sister right?

Marley: "Oh, yea. I'm Marley"

Farkle: "So you gonna go up to the party?"

Marley: I was planning on it, but now that I'm here I'm not so sure.

Farkle: "Yeah me neither."

Marley: I wasn't really invited but I though I could give her this presant and she let me stay or she would ban me for like. (nervious Chuckles) I really want her to like me and to be a minion in her group. Maybe you couldgive it to her and put in a good word?

Farkle looked at her. she seemed nice and she kinda reminded him of maya. "Uh, do you wanna go take a walk or something?" he splurts out.

Marley: "With you? Um what would Riley think?"

'what would she think' he thought, Farkle decided that it doesn't matter since they are broken up "Well, Riley's up there. Unless of course you wanna go, it's up to you."

Marley smiled: "A walk sounds good."

...

Charlie comes out of the elevator with a girl. Maya was excited to she him, "Charlie, you're here!" but then cinfused when she say a gril; with him. "And um, and you brought a date?"

Charile: "Maya this is my best friend in the entire would Vanessa. She just got here so I thought in honor of your best friend I'd introduce you mine." Riley looks at Vanessa with disgust.

Maya just smiles and nods and Riley says in hush tones to Maya "Oh sweetie this is such a problem. everyone knows in a relationship the girlfriend becomes the first best friend and the old best friend becomes the second best friend"

Charlie and Vanessa start smiling and Riley waves.

….

Riley is on the table holding her phone. She had been trying to reach Farkle for some time on with no luck. She felt someone come behind here and she didn't need to turn around to know who it was. "Stalk me much?" she was slouching on the table twirling her phone in circles. Lucas frowned, "What are you still doing up here all alone?"

She looks at him 'at least he dropped the whole sleeping together conversation'. "I cant get a hold of Farkle, I wanted to talk to him before the announcement our breakup tonight. It's not like him to do this and he never misses my birthday"

Lucas was getting tired of hearing Riley only focus on Farkle. "Well, I wouldn't count on it tonight." Riley gives him a glare, but he doesn't back down. "Doesn't it strike you as uh just a little bit odd that he isn't here yet?" Riley gives him a confused look, "What do you mean?"

"Well, he promised you that was going to go thru with breaking it off after your dinner last night but yet he didn't because his parent really need help from your mother." Lucas know that this might come back to bit him in the butt but he need to make Riley understand that Farkle was not being a very good friend let alone old boyfriend.

Riley became defense with he said this. "So you're saying that Farkle using me to get to my mother? He wouldn't do that he is just confused because of all of his parent's pressure. Plus I told my mom not to back out because of this."

" Yes he would. If it was to help his family you know he will. And I don't think his parent's think your word is a strong a familial obligation. "Riley was shocked at how aloof Lucas was acting about Farkle "I don't believe that. Farkle and I were friend first. We bonded over how messed up our parents were. no matter what he always at least call at midnight to wish me happy birthday" Riley didn't want to believe Farkle was using her, deep down she wanted to believe the best in people.

Lucas was starting to get irritated, so he decide to do something that would guarantee that she spend more time with him, "Care to make a wager?" he said with an raised eyebrow, " If he calls at midnight I promise to never bring up the events of last night…If he doesn't, you hang out the rest of the night with me." Lucas knew he was being selfish but he had a great time with her last night.

The bet piqued her interest and Riley thinks heavily about it. They could go back to normal, and she wouldn't have to deal with the awkward effects of them sleeping together. So she agreed. "You're gonna lose. I trust Farkle." And if she did loose, well they were going to have to deal with it sooner or later.

Gossip Girl: Careful Riles. There's no safe wager when you bet on a Friar. You just might lose your shirt and your pants.

...

Farkle and Marley are eating a large pretzel and drinking juice sitting on some neighborhood steps.

Marley: "I heard about your dad trial, I'm sorry."

Farkle finished eathing his pretzel and dusted off his hands. "yea thanks... its a bit overwhelming... I just needed to get out of that house."

Marley: "Yeah I know the feeling"

there as an awlward silence and Farkle was fiddling with the ring box. Marley sees it and asks. "what you got there?"

"Riley present" and he opens to show his mothers ring.

Marley: "is that an engagement ring!... wow it's beautiful."

Farkle: "It's my mothers, I'm uh, supposed to give it to Riley tonight."

Marley: "I'm guessing that wasn't your idea."

Farkle sighed. "Riley and I broke up" he admitted

Marley: "oh?" she didnt want to sound to happy about it.

Farkle had been reflecting this whole time about his situation. "Yea and as much as I wanna do the right thing and help out my parents it's just, it's not fair. I mean to me or to Riley. I have already been just a horrible friend to her theses last few days. I just think that, if I do this now, no matter what Iwill be upsetting someone"

Marley: "I guess you just have to figure out whats more important"

...

Maya took Charlie aside and started questioning him. "so I decided not to hang out with you for one day and you're all over some other girl" she said with a raised eye. "what? not.. Vanessa and i have known each other since we were in diapers trust me there is nothing going on there." Maya was still questioning it and Charlie could tell "just get to know her, I am sure you girls will get along great."

Two Guitar hero songs later the girls were laughing and having a good time dishing about Charlie.

...

Riley is on the bench drinking tequila and Lucas goes to her

"12:01, I'm sorry." as much as Lucas wanted to be right he didn't want to see riley like this. "No you're smarmy, there's a difference. If you're coming to collect you can forget it." Riley said coldly too him. Lucas see Maya bringing the cake "Turn around." he tells her.

Riley looks at him in disgust taking what he said out of context "You get grosser by the second." Lucas sighs, "You get older. Look." and he points to the group of people who start singing. Maya is holding her birthday cake.

Maya: Happy Birthday! (Laughs)

Iz: Come on, blow out your candles.

Maya: Make a wish, Riley.

Riley still upset at Farkle just gets up and walks away and Lucas blows out her candles

Gossip Girl: Happy Birthday to who? Forget cake and ice cream I'm saving room for just desserts. Looks like Lucas's wish might come true.

...

Farkle is shouting out to a cab so that he could sent Marley home.

Farkle: "Hey... So I don't know how it was possible given how the day started but um, I actually had kind of a good night. (Marlie giggles) Your parents won't be mad you're coming home so late, right?"

Marlie: "Oh no they think I'm with a friend."

Farkle: "Huh. Well they think right."

They both hug and a girl takes a photo of them

Marlie: "I had fun. (Giggles)"

Farkle: "Me too. You have a good night."

He felt a lot better after talking with Marley. He finally decided what he as going to do.

Gossip Girl: Spotted: Farkle Minkus depositing a mystery girl in a taxi after midnight. All we know about her for sure? She's not Riley Matthews.

...

Riley gets a message from Gossip Girl "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, B!" she opens it and sees a picture of Farkle hugging a girl who is Marlie. She walks off and everybody is getting the picture

Darby & Iz: "Oh my God"

Sarah: "I can't believe Gossip Girl."

(Riley walks to Maya)

Maya: "Riley hey, I'm so sorry. I never would've thought that this would happen."

Iz: "I hope the slut gave him herpes."

Darby: "Cheater totally deserves herpes."

Something inside Riley broke. She wondered if this is what he mother felt like. "He isn't cheating. We broke up, okay? We've actually been broken up for a while now but he wanted to keep it under wraps so that my mom would be obligated to help his dad in the case. (To Lucas) You satisfied?

(She walks off and Maya is chasing after her and Lucas walks off)

Maya: "Riley... Riley stop, You can talk to me."

Riley: (Her voice breaks) "I'm humiliated Maya. Why would he do this? He knows how important my image is. It is the reason why I am queen."

Maya: "Shh. Shh."

Maya wipes her tears and they both start hugging

Riley: "Is it okay if I just wanna be alone for a second?"

She walks in the room and closes the door. Charlie walks us to where Maya was standing "Is everything alright?"

Maya: "Yea Riley is just not feeling too good."

"Charlie: "ok we we are going to head out. need a ride home"

Maya: "no Riley needs me. I think I am going to stay here but thanks. I'll see you tomorrow" she kisses him good bye and goes to attend to the rest of the guest leaving.

...

Farkle walks in and His mum and dad are in the office drinking red wine.

Stuart: "Farkle hey, what are you doing home so early?"

Farkle: "It's after midnight."

Stuart: "We just thought you'd be with Riley."

Jennifer: "How did she like her gift?"

Farkle: "I didn't make it to the party tonight."

Stuart and Jennifer looks at each other

Jennifer: "Well the actual birthday is today. You can call her in the morning, maybe take her to lunch."

Stuart: "It's a good plan, really more special this way."

Farkle: "Dad I know you think the only way to save you is for me to get back together with Riley but I'm not doing this."

He throws the ring box on the coffee table

Farkle: "Riley was my best friend first and I am not going to use her like this"

Stuart: "Farkle, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do to protect our family, and I'm sure you feel the same. I need your support here son and your trust."

Farkle: "I trust you dad, but there has to be another way. I'll talk to Riley as friend. I am sure she can convince her mom to still help us."

….

Riley is lying on her bed and Lucas enters one hand behind his back.

"I'm not in the mood to talk Lucas. This is pretty much the worst birthday ever." She hugged a pillow and lean back on the headboard.

Lucas felt bad about what happened but thought his present might cheer her up. "Maybe it can be salvaged" He walks towards her and sits down next to her. Then he pulls out a jewelry box from his behind him. Riley looks at is skeptically "What is that our sex tape?"

He opens the box slowly (keeping his eyes focused on Riley face) and shows her a necklace

Riley was stunned to see what was inside. "It's the Erickson Beamon necklace. No, I couldn't," as she gently touched the fine piece of jewelry. That was the most expensive piece she put on hold at the jewelers.

"Yes, you can." He whispered as he puts it around her neck. She was looking in the mirror as he did. Then Lucas takes hold of her shoulder from behind and says, "Something this beautiful deserves to be seen on someone worthy of its beauty." She touches necklace and he also goes in to touch it and somehow their hands connect. Lucas kisses her shoulder. "I really am sorry"

Riley did know what she was feeling right now. But with Lucas being so nice to her and the lovely present he bought. She left a lightness in herself that she couldn't explain. Her heart started beating a little faster and she did the only thing she knew would show him her appreciation. She would think about all theses feelings later.

Lucas was caught of guard when she leaned in to kiss him. Happy but it was definitely unexpected considering how she was acting earlier. He lean back and she starts to climb on top of him. He guessed their talk would wait until tomorrow.

Maya went to the room that Riley entered after the Farkle post. She was concerned that her best friend needed some consoling. When she goes pushes the door in the last place to look her mouth drops. She sees Riley and Lucas kissing on the bed looking like more was going to happen. Quickly she locks the door and closes it behind her. 'What are you doing Riley' she thinks and walks away

AN: I don't own GG or GMW

Please let me know if you have any ideas for next part in the show. It's called "Hi Society" which would be about Debutant balls, R+L sneaking around, Farkle seeing Riley in a new light, and a bit of jealously form Lucas.

but since have changed the storyline a bit I need to figure out a way to change the end. (which has Blair and Nate getting back together)
