OMG! they are going to be so mad at me what is Maya thinks the reason I left with my mom was because of our fight? I feel like i'm being that person I was before I left for London I can't be mad at Maya she probably only did it because she got mad at me right? I wonder what its has been like without me there, Guess i'm about to find out. These where the thoughts in Riley Matthews head as she walks up the stairs into her old school but for her last year of high school. She has been gone for so long she does not even know if her friends will know who she is, She started getting stuff out of her locker for her first class which is history
"R-Riley?" A voice came from behind her it was none other than Zay, Riley turned around and smiled at him
"Hi Zay..." Riley turned around and closed her locker then looked back at Zay
"Your your really back?" He started jumbling his words like he did not know what to say to her she has been gone for so long he is just so happy to see her, he jumped up and hugged her
"Yes, I'm really back. What is your first class?" She asked Zay as they start walking up the stairs
"History you?"
"History." They both smile then started to laugh. They walk into their classroom and all eyes are on her Lucas could not stop looking at her like if he looks away she is going to go away again Farkle was jumping up and down with his face glowing but... Maya was not there Maybe she has a different class this period Riley thought she sat down in a empty seat next to Lucas he kept staring at her "Are you okay Lucas? Your acting like if you look away ill disappear." Lucas smiled
"Yeah, just happy your back. Maybe if you stick around things will go back to normal."
Riley looked confused "What do you mean back to normal?" She started to get her history book out of her bookbag
"Well because you left Maya-" Lucas was cut off by a slam of the door
"Okay enough talking time for my lesson." It was he got his old job back and now he teaches history again Farkle's face lit up again with his big smile
"FARKLE TIME!" He yelled and flipped over his desk tag and started talking to the class about how much he missed Riley
"Riley it has been hell without you here, I have missed you so much! Please never leave again make everything the way it was-" The door swung open making Farkle faint
"He did it again!" Lucas said while looking at the door and rolling his eyes when he see's a police officer holding Maya by her shirt
"Hello officer nice to see you again today." said smiling at him
"Yeah keep this one. This is a bad habit you got Short stuff don't keep it up or you be in the same place as your best friend Charlie." The officer pushed her in the room a little bit while she looked around she stopped at a face that she remembered but it was in her spot Maya walked over to Riley
"Hi peaches." Riley gave her a smile even though she was so scared of Maya she wanted to cry right now.
"Move." Riley whined and ran to a different seat that was beside Zay
"What happened to her?" Riley was scared she saw that it was Maya but that was not the Maya she knew
"After you left she had no good influences so she went back to the streets the only place she felt like she belonged."
Zay look at who was talking to the officer after walked away the officer pointed at his eye's then Maya and everyone looked at Maya and she did the same thing back at him. Then the officer started laughing and Maya laughed to
Once the class started Riley could hear Lucas and Maya talking Riley got really annoyed and without thinking she turned around and looked at Maya "I'm trying to liste to my fathers lesson so if you could keep quite that would be great."
Maya turned her head and gave Riley a death glare while Everyone slapped their heads "What did you say to me?!" Maya said threw her teeth
"I said be quite i'm trying to listen."
Maya started laughing "You think i'm going to listen to what you say after what you did to me? Bitch, you think you can just come back into our life's and expect us to just welcome you back with open arms? think again hoe."
Riley knew she could not win this battle and she gave up "Sorry..." She said silently
"Sorry does not cut it this time. It never has it never will."
Lucas grabbed Maya's arm "She said sorry calm down Maya."
Maya shoved his hand off her "Are you really on her side?" Maya looked at him with a cold dead stare
"No..." Lucas said and then looked away
"Riley Matthews you are DEAD to me."
The bell rang and Maya quickly left the room, Lucas was right behind her before Riley stopped him
"Why is Maya being like this?"
Lucas tried to push past her but she wanted her answers "Why don't you ask her now get out of my way." Lucas pushed her off him and walked away
"He has not been the same ether..." Zay patted Riley on the back and walked out of the room
"I missed you Riley." Farkle hugged Riley and walked her to her next class which happens to be Maya's next class too
"What are you drawing?" Riley asked Maya and Maya did not get mad
"I'm just drawing what I feel." When Maya draws it lets all her anger go away and she is her calmest at this point and time this is her safe spot from when Riley left this is the only place she felt safe
Riley smiled "What did I do? How bad has it been from when I left?"
Maya does not answer she just keeps drawing "Did I do something?"
"No you did nothing, that's the problem." Maya put down her pencil and picks up her paint brush
"What did I not do?"
"You did not want to stay." Maya put down her paint brush and looked at Riley
"What?"
"Ypu did not fight to stay here it's like you wanted to leave me like I was not your best friend anymore."
