I apologize if you got a notification about an update earlier and went to read the chapter and it wasn't there because I deleted it. I'm sorry. I jumped the gun and posted the chapter when I was debating on some things for future chapters like if I wanted to include other characters's point of views like Maya's or strictly keep it Riley's and Farkle's. I regretted it instantly after I posted the chapter and deleted it quickly just in case I changed my mind but I decided I'm including other characters's point of views like I originally planned. First up Maya!
FYI, please remember this is an AU story while I kept some things from the show to keep it familiar it is not like the show. Please read and review.
Chapter 3(Maya)
"Something is not right?" I put out there as I look at myself in the wedding boutique's mirror.
My best friend looks up at me with tears in her eyes. "You look perfect" she says while fanning her eyes with our eyes locking gazes in the mirror.
I run my hand down what will be my wedding dress as soon as I say yes to the dress. It was perfect but I shake my head "Not me. Not the dress" I say catching her attention as if I already didn't have it. "You" I watch her closely.
"Me?" she gasps.
"Yes" I nod, turning to face her instead of staring at her in the mirror. "Something is not right and I know you are lying to me."
"I'm not lying to you."
"You are and you have been lying for a while. There is something going on. I know it."
"Today is not about me. Today is about you and finding your wedding dress for your wedding?"
I cock my head with my eyes zooming in on her. "So you are admitting I'm right and something is wrong?"
"Maya there is a million things wrong with me but now is not the time to get in to it."
I keep my eyes on my best friend "Riley" I sigh when she takes her seat. I know she is trying to throw me off of the subject at hand so I'll drop it but I can't. Not anymore.
"Maya not now."
I shake my head "You and Farkle"
"Are happily married" she cuts me off and doesn't look me in the eyes.
Now I know she is lying. Something is going on with her and Farkle. I always felt they rushed their marriage. One minute I find out they are dating and the next they are getting married. I tried repeatedly to vocalize my opinions about them rushing she would shrug me off like I didn't know what I was talking about. She would constantly tell me they are at a different stage in life than what I was. She was a mother and Farkle was getting ready to take over a company. I wouldn't get or understand their love but I didn't have to. Farkle had a look of love while Riley never had it. I only saw that look from her one time and it wasn't with Farkle. It was with the man who she walked away from so he could live his big dream of becoming a star. I couldn't but wonder what Lucas was thinking letting his family walk away from him. A family he was suppose to love and care for.
"Today is about you. Not me" she reminds me and smacking me out of my thoughts. "Are we done talking about this?" she asks when she finally looks me back in the eyes.
I slowly nod and turn back to get a good look at my reflection in the mirror. She is right. Today is about me. I may be dropping the subject today but this conversation was long from being forgotten. As soon as my wedding is done and over with I have to find out what is really happening between Riley and Farkle but right now I need to concentrate on what will be one of the best days of my life. I was going to marry my Boing and nothing was going to ruin this moment for us and that includes the trouble that may or may not be happening between my two best friends. Is it selfish of me? Yes, but I deserve to have this day to be the best day of my life as much as anyone so I don't think anyone will think blame me for putting my wedding first.
"I think Josh is going to pass out when he sees you in this dress" she smiles. "Are you saying yes to the dress?"
I bite my lip at the thought of Josh standing at the altar waiting for me to come down the aisle with a huge smile as he fights back tears flashes through my mind. He was going to love this dress. I feel like my heart is about to burst out of my chest as I thought about the man I love. "Yes" I grin, knowing I was one step closer to my wedding day.
"Your wedding day is going to be the best day ever."
