Farkle was bouncing up and down in his seat, everyone was excited of course but Farkle was out of control with happiness.
"She's coming home!" he shouted. Maya looked at him annoyed
"We know lover boy" Farkle didn't reply as his phone lit up and from the grin on his face everyone knew it was Riley. Since Riley had gone she had kept in contact with everyone but mainly Farkle. Everyone could tell when she had talked to him because he was usually ecstatic afterwards.
"She nearly here?" Lucas shouted. That was another thing that had changed, Riley had decided to mend her friendship with him. They had come to a mutual agreement that they were better as friends than anything else. The other thing Riley had instigated was the newfound relationship between Lucas and Maya, she had said that they felt a deeper connection than herself and Lucas and had fully supported their relationship.
"You know, it would be better if her parents could actually see!" Zay shouted as everyone clambered around the Mathews in hopes of seeing Riley first. The Matthews didn't mind as they tried to contain Auggie who was bouncing with excitement.
When her plane finally landed she was the last one off, following her uncle Eric off the plane. Auggie got to her first and gave her a toothy smile whilst pulling her into a hug. Maya and Lucas found her next hands linked and identical smiles covering their faces. Riley screamed in excitement
"Finally, oh my god Kodak moment!" she said taking out the camera that Shawn had given her all them months ago and took a picture of her best friends. Lucas laughed and pulled Riley into a hug, Maya doing the same. When Zay got to her he messed up her hair.
"You actually ready this time, no more repeats?" he asked. She nodded profusely and showed him squishy toy.
"The councillor said when I get stressed out hurt this instead of myself" she explained.
"That's the greatest advice sugar" then he kissed the top of her head. Her parents followed and showered her with hugs and kisses. Saying how much they had missed her.
Last was Farkle who had kissed her deeply whilst Lucas and Zay wolf whistled. Riley pulled back and hugged him.
"I missed you, I had no challenge in class and people actually thought Pluto wasn't a planet" she exadurated. Farkle laughed
"Well they know nothing" he said as they walked to the car. Riley sat next to Farkle on the way home and told everyone about her recovery.
Later that night Riley turned to her boyfriend
"You know I've been thinking, maybe we should stay on earth instead of mars, I figured out that Earth is actually pretty great when you take the time to look around" Farkle smiled at her warmly.
"It is pretty great"
