Hey, so this chapter won't be nearly as long as the last chapter, but it will be just as emotional. I think. I'll get started right away this time, as long as you remember to view Chapters 18, 23, and the chapter I posted late last night, Chapter 25. Anyways, I hope you enjoy Chapter 26! :)

Maya's POV:

I can't let this happen. I can't let Riley lie to Lucas like that. I can't let two of my three best friends be that upset for no reason.

"Hold it. Hold it. This shouldn't be happening. Lucas, she is just kidding. She's going through her mood swings right now. Lucas, she doesn't mean anything she said. At all, in fact, she means the complete OPPOSITE of everything she said." This isn't working! "Lucas despite what some stupid online test said, despite what anyone else says, including you and her, there is one thing that you can tell just by looking at her. That's that she is in love with you. No, Riley, put your hand down." She sighs, and lets me continue.

"Riley always talks about you during everything she does. Every single thing she does she has to ask someone if Lucas would approve of what she's doing. She always talks about how you are the most charming, handsome and sweetest person in the world, and every night I sleep over she always comes up with some secret weapon or plot or outline to try and get you to fall in love with her." Riley Grumbles, not liking I admitted her little secret.

"Riley, you know you love Lucas... Why would you even be so bored as to even take one of those stupid things anyways! Your mom and dad would probably get a zero on one of those things."

"I heard that Maya!" Her dad says and we all laugh.

"Riley, I, and your mom and dad understand you're growing up... You just need to realize how to control your anger ness towards people, especially us five when you feel mad. Just because your growing up doesn't mean you have to cry about some stupid test you took and say Lucas told you you don't like him."

"Really? Is that what this is about? If it wasn't so serious, I would be laughing right now." Riley just frowned. Good. She should be ashamed.

"Riley, I get that you are changing, and well, your dad, your boyfriend, my boyfriend, and your best friend, and especially your mom, are all here for you. Now, you may apologize." I feel like an adult! This is fun!

"Maya... Do I have to? To who?" Aw... Poor little girl...

"Well, you can start with dad."

"I'm sorry I made you worry about something pointless. I love you." Really? "Oh, and I'm sorry about yelling at you." Mr. Matthews gave her a hug. "Now who Maya?"

"Me."

"Maya, I'm sorry for getting you involved in this stupid thing. None of it's your fault. Just remind me to hide my diagrams when we get home." I accept her apology and see what she says to Lucas... Oh, and I'm not hiding them!

"Lucas, I'm sorry for lying to you and for overreacting and for doing something stupid. None of this should have ever happened and Maya's right, I didn't mean anything I said. Lucas... I... Do. Love you. I think."

"Riley... No! Bad Girl! Baaaaad girl!" She blushes.

"Fine, I do. For real. I love you Lucas..." Aw...

"I love you too, Riley." Of course they have to kiss and hug and stuff, and at least they are back together. You're very welcome. Oh wait... Farkle is here?! Did he... Did he...

"Farkle? Did you see them kiss?" He nods.

"Yeah, I did. It's so... Peaceful."

"Do you think we should?" I ask Farkle.

"Oh my goodness Farkle! Why are you still waiting! Kiss her!" Riley shouts.

"Farkle, just do it. I have to go back to finish in... 15 minutes." F-F-Farkle... K-K-Kissed... M-Me. AH! I win! Woo HOO! I have done it. I have finally done it. VICTORY SHALL BE MINE! (Yes, that's the Stewie Griffin phrase lol) I'm not even in High School officially yet! Oh my goodness I can't believe I just did that. Wow. I feel so happy and joyful and Excited and... And... And... Relieved. I feel... PERFECT!

Riley's POV:

I haven't seen Maya smile like that in a long time. One of the only times I've seen her smile like that was when I first met Lucas and she tried to get me to tell her I liked him. Ah... Lucas... I'm starting to feel weird around him... I still love him, just like I have for awhile, but something else is changing... Instead of being all nervous around him... I'm really excited sometimes, a little bit angry for no reason, a little sad for no reason, etc. I have to ask Maya about this. Or mom... Hmm... Who to choose? (She would choose her Mom, and find out she's going through her 'Girl Growing Up Problems' as her mom would call them.)

Cory's POV: (Yes, I know I don't do much Cory and Topanga, but in this they aren't major, they are recurring cast.)

*Evil Laugh* I've got it. I have gotten this on Camera. HAHAHA! Riley, and now Maya... I have both their first kisses. HA HA HA! Now time to make them want them! And think of some way to bribe them. Hmm...

"So, I have both your first kisses. You want to see them and keep them?" Heh heh heh.

"Nah, I'd prefer to just keep it with me in my mind." Maya said. "Plus, I still have theirs." UGH.

"Fine, I'll delete them then." Maya is sad. Good.

"Why? Why would you do that? What about 25 years from now?" Ugh...

"Fine. I'll keep them. Only as blackmail for the future." AHA!

"Keep our first kiss pictures from us as Blackmail? What else do you have on us?"

"Well, I have a lot on you, because I've known you forever. I have quite a few things on Maya still, and some of them are quite bad. Oh, and I have some stuff on Lucas too."

"If you don't mind me asking, how have you gotten stuff on me?" Haha. Not giving it up.

"Grades, Riley moments, all kinds of stuff from your mom... You know. Oh, and teenage boy things."

"Okay, I dare you to say one thing you have on me." Maya... Hmm...

"Well, I know what makes you laugh..." I know, I know... It's lame.

"Ugh... Fine. Don't say it." Good.

"Riley, would you like to know what I have on you too?" Haha!

"Yeah. Sure. Say one. Just one." Oh, she asked for it.

"Fine. One time, I took you to the doctor, and you were crying so loud while they were brushing your teeth because you said you don't like noise." She seems unfazed... "Oh, and one time, we started playing the itsy Bitsy spider song and you did all kinds of hand motions... You were so cute back then!" Why is nobody responding! They're all just like this is nothing! "Oh, and then there was one time when you were at your preschool, and you were playing duck duck goose, and-" Aha! I found one!

"Okay dad, not that one. Keep going. Some of these are actually funny."

"Okay, fine. I know about your diary in your room. It's where you write all your deepest darkest secrets." I thought that would work!

"Dad, I stopped doing that last year when I didn't need to write about Lucas every day. That's old. Keep going." Ugh... She's right.

"Your favorite Halloween costume is a witch with no broom." She just laughed. "How is that funny!" She just said to keep going. "Ugh... You already have your whole entire life planned out and it starts with-" YES! Another good one.

"Dad! Not while Lucas is here!" Nope. Not going to take it.

"Nope, you asked me to say one, so I'm saying it. Lucas, you might want to hear this. Can you stay for five minutes?" He nods.

"Okay, so when she was younger she took a piece of paper and wrote down all kinds of goals. The first thing was that she would meet a boy who would be sweet and charming and she just crossed that off her list." Riley is blushing! Good!

"Then she said that she wanted to get more As than Farkle, even though Farkle has an A in his name, and she said that she wanted Maya to marry Farkle because she thought they were cute together, and then she added some stuff about Lucas, like she wants to get married, have a boy and a girl, and she wants one of her kids to fall in love with one of Farkle and Maya's kids, and she wants all four of you to be successful and go to college together and become whatever job person you want to be." I hope that was good enough. "Oh, wait, she wants her daughter to look just like her but have Lucas's personality, and her son to look just like Lucas but have her personality. Farkle and Maya's kids the same thing." There. That's, good enough.

"Wait, you want us to have kids?! When?!" Farkle asked.

"The same time as her and Lucas do."

"Riley, you know I wouldn't make a good mother..."

"Why not? Especially with Farkle? Not only would your kids be pretty, but they'd be smart."

"Riley, I'm... Look at how I was raised by my mom. She's always gone, I'm all alone..."

"Maya, no you're not! First, Farkle would help. Second, you're NEVER alone, and third, worst case scenario you have us."

"Yeah, but I would just be a burden, and your kids playing with my kids..."

"What's wrong with it?"

"All they would do is compete with each other and try and prove they are smarter than each other. I highly doubt they would fall in love."

"Maya, I can dream. I'm sure you have dreams about you and Farkle having kids and getting married and my mom and dad walking you down the aisle to join with Farkle for everlasting love. Just like I do Lucas." SHE SAID IT NOT ME! It is nice to see them working things out though.

"Yes, yes, I do... I'm only saying this because you admitted to wanting to marry Lucas. Also, that doesn't mean Farkle and or Lucas are going to be walking down the aisle to get our kids married." Riley looks sad.

"I don't want to hear about my very far in the future grand kids, let alone my grand kids getting married. Save this for another time. Like... Later. Please."

"Fine. Lucas how much more time do you have on your shift?"

"I have 15 minutes. But that's if I start in five, so I'll see you guys in 25 minutes." Riley hugged Lucas, and we just decided to stay and wait. A half hour in a car with my daughter and 2 of her three best friends?! It should be entertaining.

General POV:

Really, nothing happened the rest of their Freshman year. They went to a football game every week, then basketball, then baseball, their dad didn't teach any life lessons, only school lessons he was forced to teach, and everybody got As in all their classes, including Maya who thought "High School is so much easier than Middle School" but that was really only because they had each other. They were building a friendship connection so strong, that it would be impossible to break. Not even any of Missy's antics could stop them anymore, I'll she just decided to give up on bullying and became a good kid herself over their freshman year summer. Lucas went on all kinds of dates with Riley, some amazing, some, just good. The worst thing that happened between any of the four, was they all disagreed on an answer on their History Final Exam review, but for some really odd reason none of them got it right. In reality, High School was very boring for them. It was just same old same old every year, and nothing new happened. They took the ACT, and yes, Farkle and Riley did have a competition, but they both got a 32, so they both won. Lucas got a 30 and Maya got a 28. Their Senior year is when things started to get more interesting... That's, when the four friends would really start to meet the world. That's when their journey was just beginning. They had their biggest challenges and decisions to make, the most important year class wise to choose their classes, and a lot of feelings to release. What's happened so far, (even though this is halfway over) is only there to lead up to what would happen next. Will Maya undergo Senioritis? Maybe Farkle has to escape a mysterious force at work who he doesn't know exists? Maybe Riley and Lucas disagree about something that could drive them apart, not just for a short period of time, but maybe forever? Or maybe they don't, and they continue to live happily ever after, just like their Junior, Sophmore and Freshman years. Only time will tell what happens next, in... Table Set Four Two!

Thanks for reading guys! I'm sorry for the big time lapse, but really, nothing interesting happens at all. Updates starting with next chapter as I mentioned will be starting to move slow, as I now have my Junior year schedule ahead of me, including AP Gov, so please, review, follow, favorite and of course read, because it means more in September and October now more than ever. I hope you all had an amazing summer, and I will see you guys soon, maybe sometime before Friday if I'm lucky! :)
