This is based off the song I Got The Boy by Jana Kramer. Let me know what you think! :)
I Got The Boy
I saw your picture in a paper, Honeymoon in Jamaica, she's a lucky girl
You look so grown up in your black tux, from a ball cap in a pickup, seems like another world
You and me and our big dreams, falling in love
We were two kids in the backseat, all fearless and young
"It feels weird being back here for this wedding, doesn't it?" Maya asked as Riley sat at the vanity putting on her make up.
"Aww, come on Peaches, we all knew it'd happen eventually, I think we're all just glad to see Lucas finally being tied down!" Riley replied with a laugh.
Maya walked over to the bookshelf where she saw pictures of their group from when they were younger. There were pictures of her and Riley, pictures of the two of them and Farkle, some with all 6 of them, pictures of her and Lucas, and pictures of Riley and Lucas.
I got the first kiss and she'll get the last
She's got the future, and I got the past
I got the class ring, she got the diamond and wedding band
I got the boy, and she got the man
"Hey Riles, do you ever wonder what would've happened if you and Lucas didn't break up?" Maya wondered aloud as she picked up a picture of both of them kissing Lucas on the cheeks.
Riley walked up to Maya and leaned her head on her shoulder. "Well, I think that over time Lucas and I would've drifted apart, and we wouldn't have been able to end our relationship so easily. We probably would've never been able to be friends with each other, and then you and Lucas wouldn't have gotten to start dating each other in high school. I think that what he and I had together made it easy for us to move on from trying to love each as a couple to loving each other as friends."
"You make it sound so easy Riles, I guess I just don't really know what I'm feeling today." Maya said as she grabbed one of the old yearbooks off of the bookshelf.
Yeah there's the old you that I knew,
Fake IDs to get into those spring break bars
Back woods on a four wheel, hanging on tight, I can still feel my racing heart
And now you're cleaned up with a haircut, nice tie and shoes
If things were different and I had a choice, which would I choose?
Maya sat down on the bed and started flipping through the yearbook, stopping on the page that had a picture of her and Lucas captioned, "Cutest Couple." Maya smiled at the memory.
"Hey Riles, remember how Huckleberry and I won "Cutest Couple" for like 3 years straight and we weren't even dating? It's crazy to think that our classmates saw the chemistry between us before we did."
"Peaches, I know you didn't want to act on your feelings for Lucas because you wanted to spare my feelings, but it's okay to talk about it now. See?" Riley said as she lifted her hand into the air. "Ring power. And on the other hand, engagement ring power. If l hadn't have gotten over Lucas, I never found what was right there in front of me. Thunder."
Maya grabbed Riley's hand. "Lightning. It's still so weird to me to think that you're engaged to Farkle!" Maya said with a giggle.
"Six more months and everyone will have to be back here getting ready for another wedding!" Riley replied as she and Maya fell back on the bed in a fit of giggles.
I got the first kiss and she'll get the last
She's got the future and I got the past
I got the class ring, she got the diamond and wedding band
I got the boy and she got the man
After a few minutes of just laughing and laying together, Riley turned to her side to face Maya.
"So what's the real reason for all these questions? We both know that Lucas and I are just friends and that I'm glad he found someone who brings out the best in him. Have you talked to Lucas about these feelings, Maya?" Riley asked.
"I don't know Riles, it's just, being back here is stirring up all these old thoughts that I used to have and I don't know what to think anymore." Maya answered despondently. "I used to be this cool badass who could somehow get rid of Texas Lucas when he came around, and now he's Dr. Perfect Veterinarian, and I'm just me."
"TALK TO HIM." Riley said sternly as she grabbed Maya's face and looked her in the eyes.
"How? It's not like he's gonna take time out of getting ready to come over here and talk to me because thoughts from my past are bringing up doubts." Maya replied.
"Well, actually, that's exactly what's gonna happen." Riley said with a sly smile. "I already texted Farkle to send him over here so you could talk to him before the wedding."
I got the first kiss and she'll get the last
We each got something, the other will never have
I got the long hair, hot head
She got the cool and steady hand
I got the boy and she got the man
As soon as the words left Riley's mouth there was a knock at the door. Maya jumped as the knock startled her from her thoughts.
"Who's there?" Maya shouted towards the door.
"It's me, I was told that I was being summoned for a very important conversation before the wedding." Lucas said through the door.
"You can't come in here, we're not decent." Maya yelled back towards the door.
"Well good thing I'm coming in with my eyes closed, since it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding anyways." Lucas replied as he opened the door.
Lucas walked into the room with his hand covering his eyes, making sure that he couldn't see Maya.
"I'll just let you two talk it out." Riley smiled at Lucas as she walked out of the room, shutting the door behind her.
"It's alright Huckleberry, you can open your eyes, it's not like we actually believe in this superstition anyways since you saw me this morning when we woke up." Maya said as she sat down on the bed.
Lucas moved his hand from in front of his face, his breath catching as he saw Maya. "Shortstack, you look gorgeous."
"Thanks Huckleberry. I'm sorry that I'm causing all this commotion today, I know how much you wanted things to go smoothly." Maya spoke as she looked down at her dress.
"Babe, I want things to go exactly how we make them go, if you have thoughts or regrets or anything, I want you to tell me, I want us to talk about them." Lucas sat down on the bed beside Maya and grabbed her tiny hand in his larger one.
"Lucas, I really want to marry you, it's just that being back here, especially back at the Matthews' house has brought back a lot of thoughts and old memories that I thought I was over, but now I'm not so sure. I'm starting to feel guilty that I stole you from Riley, and that she might still love you, or that you might still love her. And I guess I'm just nervous because of how my parent's relationship ended up, and I don't want that to happen to us." Maya said as tears started to well up in her eyes.
"Maya, it's okay to have some fears about taking such a big step. We've been together for almost 6 years, and to tell you the truth, I knew I wanted to marry you after the first month of us being officially together. You're right though, I do love Riley. I love her like a sister, and she loves me like a brother. And I know you're worried that this will end up like your parents, but look at your mom and Shawn, they're as happy as can be." Lucas picked up the yearbook that Maya had been looking at earlier. "Cutest Couple". Lucas smiled at the picture. "Remember this was the first year we actually were a couple? Definitely the best decision I ever made was getting together with you."
"So do you still wanna marry me today?" Maya asked as she started to wipe the tears from her eyes.
"Are you kidding? I'd marry you right now, I'd marry you tomorrow, I'd marry you on the hottest day in July in the middle of a corn field in the giant state of Texas, heck I'd even marry you on the moon." Lucas answered as he gently rubbed his thumbs across Maya's cheeks. "Now the real question is, do you still wanna marry me today?"
"Yes, I do still wanna marry you today. I want to become Mrs. Lucas Benjamin Huckleberry Ranger Rick Bucky McBoing Boing Friar." Maya replied with a giggle.
"Our poor kids are gonna have the hardest time getting that name to fit on their baseball jerseys." Lucas said with a laugh.
Maya smiled at the thought of having kids with Lucas.
"Thank you for coming up here to talk to me Lucas, I'm sorry if I scared you into thinking I didn't wanna get married."
"There was never any doubt in my mind about that Shortstack, I just knew that you'd need some reassurance that you deserve good things in your life, and as your husband I'm gonna make sure you get that every day." Lucas dropped a kiss to Maya's lips as he stood up. "Now, I'm gonna walk out this door and send Riley and Smackle back in. I will meet you on the roof in an hour. I'll act all surprised so my parents won't know I've already seen you, and I'll probably cry. I love you Maya, and I can't wait to marry you."
"You're such a sap Huckleberry, I love you, and I can't wait to marry you." Maya replied with a smile.
I got the boy and she got the man
At 4:37, in front of all their friends and family, Maya let go of her doubts and fears as she officially became Mrs. Lucas Benjamin Huckleberry Ranger Rick Bucky McBoing Boing Friar.
