The whole way to Riley's apartment, Maya tried to make sense of the whole situation. Why was her best friend drunk? Did it happen at the party? Why hadn't her date brought her home? Why had her date let her get drunk in the first place? Once Maya got to her best friends building, she made her way up to her door.
Knock knock knock
There was no reply. Sighing, Maya opened the door. What she saw, she couldn't believe. Riley, her best friend in the whole world, was laying on the floor passed out. She rushed to the unconscious girls side and noticed that she was soaking wet.
"Riley?" She said shaking her gently.
Riley gave a soft moan.
"Riley?" She shook her a little harder.
Riley's eyelids slowly opened.
"M-Maya? Why are you" hic "in my room?"
Maya gave a small smile.
"Hey kid. You're not in your room, Riles. Why are you on the floor?"
Riley looked around dazed. Maya was worried about her. She had never seen Riley so out of it before.
"I... I don't" hic "know why I'm on the" hic "floor." Turning to her friend, Riley tried to remember why Maya was over at her place.
"Maya?"
"Ya, little plant?"
"Why did" hic "why did you come over?"
Maya looked at her drunk friend.
"You called me, remember? You called me and asked if I would come over, cause you weren't feeling good."
Riley thought about this for a moment.
"Oh ya." Riley said.
"Come on, let's get you on the couch." Maya said helping her up. Maya put arm under her arm and around her neck so she was supporting Riley's weight. Once on the couch, Riley laid down on her back, only to lean back over the edge of the side and vomit. Maya, not really sure of what to do, went over to the sick girl and rubbed her back until she was done. When she was done, Riley laid back down on the couch and passed out. Maya looked at her friend. Sighing, she picked up her phone.
To Farkle and Lucas: Hey come over to Riley's place. It's an emergency. Come through front door. Details when you get here.
From Farkle: OMG on my way. Be there soon.
From Lucas: Is Riley okay? What's wrong?
To Lucas: You don't listen too well do you cowboy? Just get over here. I need your help.
While she waited for her other friends to get there, Maya decided she needed to clean up Rileys mess.
When Maya put away the cleaning supplies away, she heard a knock. Not wanting to wake Riley up,she walked over to the door, opening it to reveal two boys.
"Hey, come on in." She said leading Lucas and Farkle in until they were in front of the couch.
"What happened to her?" Farkle asked. Both boy's faces full of concern.
"I don't know. She called me when she got home from her date and asked me to come over. When I got here she was like this. But guys, that's not the problem."
"What's the problem?" Lucas asked.
Maya, biting her lip, looked both boys in the eyes debating whether or not to tell them. But she needed their help, that was after all why she called them. She sighed.
"Riley... Riley's drunk."
"WHAT!" The boys yelled in unison.
Maya hushed them loudly when Riley moaned loudly grabbing her head.
"How is she drunk? Who would let her get drunk?" The boys asked in unison again, yell-whispering this time.
"I don't know you guys. I just got here and she was passed out on the floor, I got her onto the couch, she vomited, I text you guys then I cleaned up it up and here we are!"
The three friends sighed, looking at their friend on the couch, who still had her head in her arms.
"What do we do? I've never dealt with a drunk before..." Farkle said.
Maya got mad at his comment. She grabbed the front on his shirt and pulled him close to her, with anger in her eyes.
"Riley is not a drunk! This wasn't her fault. Somebody did this to her."
Lucas jumped over and got between his two friends before something bad happened.
"Maya, Farkle didn't mean it like that." He looked from Maya to Farkle. "What he meant to say was we've never dealt with someone who is drunk," he looked back to Maya, " I mean, we're only kids. Nobody is saying Riley would get drunk on purpose, it was probably just an accident."
Maya turned around trying to calm herself down. Cursing at herself for jumping at Farkle. She turned back around to the boys.
"I'm sorry Farkle, for jumping at you like that."
"It's okay, I'm sorry too. But, huh..."
"What?" Lucas asked warningly.
Farkle glanced from Lucas to Riley to Maya.
"What... What makes you think that someone did this to Riley?"
Silence filled the room. When Lucas went to say something, a different voice filled the room.
"No Cooper"
The three friends turned to their friend on the couch
"No, please Cooper. Don't do this."
"Cooper?" Lucas whispered to Maya.
"Her date" came the reply.
That was when things got bad. Riley started thrashing, like she was trying to get someone off of her.
"No stop Cooper. I don't like this. Stop." Lucas and Maya rushed over to the couch while Farkle was frozen in fear. Maya got so Riley's head was on her lap and Lucas was at her side. They held her down so she wouldn't hurt herself while thrashing but that only seemed to make things worse.
"GET OFF OF ME! COOPER LET ME GO! GET OFF OF ME!" She screamed. The three friends were shocked by their friends sudden outburst. Maya looked down with tears in her eyes. Something bad had happened to her best friend when she went on her first date, something that should have been a good experience. And it seemed that her date was behind it. When Riley's eyes suddenly snapped open, Maya saw that she had tears in her eye and she was also shaking. Maya helped the girl up so she was sitting, and they hugged each other tightly. The boys, still stunned, just stood where they were. The apartment was soon filled with the sound of the girl's cries.
"M-Maya..." Riley said, when they both calmed down. She looked at her friend with her big brown eyes full of tears and her stomach starting to feel queasy.
"Ya Riles?" Maya said wiping tears away from her little plants eye as well as her own.
"I... I don't feel so-"
Before the girl could finish, her stomach decided it couldn't wait any longer and she vomited all over herself. Her two guy friends jumped up and went to get towels while Maya jumped up so she wouldn't get hit. When she finished, she had tears in her eyes again. Maya, who hated seeing her friend like this, also had tears forming again in her eyes. When the boys returned, Maya sent them away again so she could take off Riley's soiled shirt. After she had it off, she wrapped one of the towels around her and had Lucas help her take Riley into her bedroom, knowing that she wouldn't be able to walk the distance. When they got to her room Lucas laid her on her bed and went to help Farkle clean up the mess on the couch. Maya helped Riley into sweats and a tank top and into her bed.
"I'll be right back Riles." Maya got up and walked back into the other room. Lucas and Farkle were trying to clean the soiled couch. Maya walked over to the kitchen got a glass of water and a pack of crackers and walked back.
When she got to her best friends door, she stood there and looked in. Riley was laying on her bed with the covers pulled up with a garbage can beside her bed in case she needed it, shivering. Maya turned, walked to the bathroom, grabbing the thermometer and went back to her friends side.
"Riles, here, open your mouth." Maya said, taking the thermometer out of its package and putting it to her friends lips. Riley weakly opened her mouth and Maya put it under her tongue. After a few seconds, hearing it beep, she took it out and looked at it.
102.7
Maya silently cursed to herself. She knew that that was not good. Riley moaned. Sighing, Maya helped her to sit up and helped her take a sip of water. When Riley had had enough water, she put the glass down on the bed side table.
"Maya?"
She looked at Riley.
"Ya? What do you need?"
"I'm hungry. Can you have my" hic "mom make us some pancakes for breakfast? I'll" hic "be ready for school in a few minutes."
Maya sighed, looking at her delusional friend.
"Riley, it's friday night, your parents are in Philadelphia visiting your grandparents and... we only have crackers." She replied softly, the last an obvious lie.
"Oh ya, I knew that," Maya smiled. "Well can I have a cracker then?"
Maya opened the package, taking a cracker out and helped her best friend eat it slowly. When she was finished, Maya helped her lay back down. The boys walked in.
"How's she doing?" Farkle asked.
Maya looked up at them. They could see in her eyes that it wasn't good.
"Well, she has a 102.7 fever, probably from being out in the rain, and she's a little delusional. I don't know if that's from the fever, or being drunk, or both. I'm going to go look and see if the they have any cold medicine."
"I'll help." Farkle said, sensing she was upset. The two walked out of the room, leaving Riley and Lucas alone. Lucas walked over to the side of her bed, sitting down grabbing her hand in his. He stayed silent, just watching his crush sleeping, for a few minutes.
"Riley... I don't know what to say," he said quietly so she wouldn't wake up, looking down at their hands.
"Lucas..."
Lucas looked up at her. Riley slowly opened her eyes. When she saw him, she smiled in her usual goofy way.
"Lucas, hello."
Lucas grinned. Even when she was sick, she was still the same Riley. Still his princess.
"Um... Lucas?"
"Ya?"
"Why are you in my room?" She asked weakly.
"Well, Riles. You came home, sick and drunk. So, me, Farkle and May Mayacame over to take care of you cause your parents are out of town." Her eyes got wide.
"Oh my god! You can't tell my parents, Lucas. Promise me!" Riley said sitting up.
Lucas was shocked by her language.
"um... I won't call your parents and tell them Riley. But if they ask, I won't lie either." He said.
Riley laid back down and put her hands over eyes and let out a soft moan.
"Riley, are you ok?" Lucas asked concerned.
"Ya. Just my head hurts, really bad. I don't know why..." She put her hands back down by her sides.
Lucas gave a small smile. He moved so he was beside her.
"Its because your drunk, Riles. Its called a hangover."
"Oh. Don't tell my parents that I'm drunk too. Okay?" She said as her eyes felt too heavy to keep open.
Lucas chuckled.
"Ok Riley. I won't. I promise."
He leaned down and softly kissed her forehead and walked out of the room.
