I wanted to say as always thank you so much for all your support.

I'm going to answer some reviews:

Guest: Hi! Well, you'll have to read this chapter to find out what's going to happen


Again thank you so much for all the feedback.

I hope you like the chapter, is longer than usually and a lot of things are going to happen!


-I love you-he said between chuckles.

Suddenly she stopped laughing and her smile faded from her face. So did Lucas' once he realized what he had just said.

-Maya…

She took a step backwards.

-Maya, please don't freak out. It's okay, everything's fine. You have nothing to worry about. Please don't freak out. Let's talk.

But Maya didn't say anything. She just kept looking at him. The moment was interrupted by the guests congratulating Lucas on his birthday, starting with Riley.

-Lucas! Happy birthday again! Did you suspect anything?

-No, no, I didn't actually. Thank you guys for doing this

-Oh, don't thank us, thank Maya-she said turning to where Maya was supposed to be but…she wasn't-where's Maya? She was here a second ago.

Lucas looked too and saw her leaving the building. He started to move towards her but Riley stopped him.

-Lucas what happened?

-I told her…I told her I love her

Riley widened her eyes and nodded.

-Look, um, you know her, she's probably freaking out right now. Stay here and talk to your friends and family, everyone's here to see you. I'm going to look for her and talk to her okay?

-But…

-Stay here, I'll be right back.

And with that Riley turned around and left to find Maya. The rest of the people there approached Lucas and kept him busy for the next half an hour. He was really happy to see everyone there, especially his friends from Texas and Pappy Joe but he couldn't help but think about what had happened with Maya. He knew her, he knew that she was probably thinking of running away right now. He knew he shouldn't have told her he loved her, she had asked him not to at the hospital when her sister was born, she had asked him to take things slow when they first got together but the truth was that he couldn't help it, it came out naturally, without even thinking. He had known that he loved her for so long and he had been eager to tell her and he had been so happy and overwhelmed about the party she had thrown him and her words that he just couldn't help it…he had told her he loved her and he knew it was true, those feelings were the truest, strongest, he had had for anyone in his entire life.


-Hey…-Riley said when she found Maya outside contemplating the sky.

-Hi…

-How are you?

-I'm fine. Why would you ask…oh…he told you…

-Yeah…he did…how are you feeling?

Maya looked at her and shrugged. She bit her lip trying to contain the tears

-I just…I know that I should be dancing and jumping out of happiness right now, I know that this is like a dream come true for any girl and I'm happy, I am but…I guess I'm…

-Scared?

-Yeah…-she said nodding.-Everything's happened so fast and he's perfect…he's more than perfect, he's way better than me and I know he thinks he loves me but…

-He does Maya, and you know that

-Maybe he does now…But eventually he will leave me, everyone does…

-I love you Maya and I won't ever leave you and he won't either. And I'm sure that he's now beating himself up for scaring you and I know that's not what you want…Maya don't push him away, don't let him go. I know how you feel about him and I know that if you lose him you're not going to forgive yourself-Riley said, then she added whispering to herself-trust me, I know how that feels.

-Thank you Riles…I just need some time to think. I'm a little overwhelmed right now.

-Okay, there's no rush. We'll go back when you're ready.-she said hugging her friend.


Back inside, Lucas was talking to some of his friends but he wasn't paying attention, his mind was on a certain blonde. He was about to leave to look for her when he saw her and Riley entering the room.


The first thing that caught Riley's attention once she reentered the room with Maya was Zay of course. But he wasn't alone. He was on the dance floor dancing with Sarah, always Sarah. They seemed really happy and that only make Riley more upset.

Zay noticed the brunette staring and Sarah noticed the boy staring at the brunette.

-Hey, she'll come around.

-I don't know…but thanks Sarah, for being there for me. I don't think that I would've survived these days without you. You're a great friend.

-Thank you Zay. I'm really glad you enjoy my company. And yes, she'll come around. Just look at her Zay, she's dying seeing us together. Did you not see her face this morning? She was so jealous, just like she is now.

-Jealous? Why? We're just dancing.

-Yeah, and that means you're not dancing with her which is what she'd like to do.

-Yeah, I don't think so, she'd never dance with me in front of everybody.

-Hmm…maybe she just needs a little push.

-What are you talking about?

-Just follow my lead-she said and she leaned closer to his ear like she was whispering something.

She put a hand on his arm and rubbed it, then she started to play with his hair.


-Riley? Riley! Are you listening to me? Lucas is coming, what should I do?-Maya asked her friend who was clearly not paying attention-Riley!

-I'm sorry Maya…I need to do something. I can't take this anymore.

Riley left her side just as Lucas arrived.

-Hey

-Hi-Maya said holding her breath.

-Listen Maya, I think we should…

-No way!-Maya said pointing at something behind him.

Lucas turned around just in time to see Riley pushing Sarah away from Zay.


-Riley! What are you doing?!-Zay asked

-Oh god…I'm sorry Sarah I just…Zay…I'm sorry, I couldn't take it anymore. I can't take it anymore, I want to be with you. Please give me another chance, I'm ready if you are.

-Riley, what are you saying?-Zay asked confused

-This…-she said as she took a step closer.

She then leaned in and kissed him and yes, in front of everyone at the party.

-Riley…-he said as they pulled apart-Everybody's looking at us

-I don't care…

-I DO!-a voice said behind them.

That voice, of course, belonged to Cory Matthews.

-Babineaux! Stay away from my baby.

-I'm sorry sir

-Oh you're going to be.

And with that Zay started to run away from him as Cory chased him.


-Lucas! Do something he's going to kill him!

-But…we

-We'll talk later, now go!


Lucas with Shawn's help tried to stop Cory from killing Zay but in the end it was Topanga the one who stopped him.

-Cory! Leave the kid alone! Riley's old enough to make her own decisions and you now Isaiah, you know he's a good boy.

-I like him daddy-Riley said-and I don't care who knows it.

-I like your daughter so much sir, I would never hurt her

-Come on Cory-Topanga said

-Fine…but no kisses in front of me

-Deal-both Riley and Zay said.


-Hahaha, have you seen that?-Farkle, who was on the other side of the room, told Smackle-I'm surprised he didn't kill Zay. I can't believe they kissed in front of everyone hahah.

-Farkle…

-Yes Isadora?-he said turning to her.

She put her hands on his shoulders and stood on tip toes to give him a quick peck on his lips. Farkle looked at her shocked; she had just kissed him, in front of everyone. They had just kissed, their first kiss, and she had initiated it.

-What was that for?-he whispered.

-I guess I felt ready-she said smiling shyly.

-May I?

She nodded. He took a step closer and caressed her face with his hand before leaning in a kissing her softly. It was quick kiss, longer than the first one but still short, he didn't want to go too fast.

-Ehem…-Maya cleared her throat-I'm sorry for interrupting guys but um…I'm going to talk to Riley and Zay…I thought maybe you wanted to come?

-Oh, sure, sure let's go.

-Congratulations by the way-she said winking at them which made them blush.

-Shouldn't we get Lucas?-Farkle asked

-Oh, um…-she looked around and found him talking to Shawn and Cory-he's busy…It's okay

-Are you okay?

-Yeah, sure, I'm perfect. Let's go.

The truth was Maya was not okay, she knew that Lucas and her had a pending conversation but she didn't even know how she felt about what Lucas had said, all she could do was avoid him, at least for now.

The group approached Riley and Zay; they were with Sarah on a corner.

-Hey guys…So…surprise!-Riley said opening her harms.

-So you're together…

-Yes…I'm sorry peaches I wanted to tell you but…

-I knew

-What?

-I knew that you were together.

-Yeah, us too-Farkle said meaning him and Smackle.

-You too?

-Yeah and me too!-Lucas said joining the group. He stood next to Maya, she tried not to look at him and focus on her friends.

-But how?

-I'm sorry Riley but you don't know how to lie, you were too obvious. I mean you always disappeared at the same time, you both looked at each other when you thought no one was looking, and you almost died when you saw him with Sarah, who I assumed knew too right?

-Yeah I did hahah

-So you all knew?-Zay asked-You're telling me that we broke up because I couldn't stand no one knowing about us and you all knew? Unbelievable

-Sorry…But what matters now is that you are together and happy and you can stop making up lame excuses to go and make out.

-Maya!-Riley said blushing

-You know I'm right Riles

-Hey Zay, have you introduced Riley to Asher and Dylan?-Lucas asked

-Yeah, of course

-But as your girlfriend?

-Well no but…

-Why don't you go…like now?-Lucas said. He was trying to be left alone with Maya.

-Oh…um sure, let's go Riles-Zay said taking Riley's hand and guiding her to his friends.

Lucas looked at Farkle expecting him to go too, but he didn't get it. Smarkle did.

-Farkle, I think Lucas is trying to tell us to go.

-Smarkle!

-Wasn't I supposed to say that out loud? Well, sorry, but it's the truth. Let's go Farkle.

Once they were alone, Lucas stood in front of Maya with his hands on his pockets.

-So…about what happened before…-he started.


Well, that's it. I'm sorry for leaving you like that hahah

I hope you liked the chapter

I must warn you there's a lot of drama coming for Lucaya but I promise you it'll be worth it.

Please let me know in the reviews what you think about the story

Thank you so much for reading!
