Author's Note: Everyone is still the same age as they are on the show in today's one-shot! And before we get started, fan-girl moment right now, but how cute were Lucas and Maya in Girl Meets Crazy Hat?! I love that Lucas was able to convince Maya to do the "right" thing. I really hope this means the writers are planning Lucaya as endgame :) Fingers crossed! Also my favorite extra got her own lines in the new episode, and she was amazing :)

Disclaimer: No Girl Meets World here, or else we would have seen Maya meeting Lucas's mom.

"And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless"

-Fearless, Taylor Swift

"Well it's official." Maya peered over the edge of the Ferris wheel and looked down at the people 50 feet below her. "We're stuck up here."

"They'll get us down soon, right?" Lucas asked shakily.

Maya frowned and turned towards Lucas questioningly. "You okay there, cowboy?"

"I'm fine," he said, gripping the safety rail tightly.

"Seriously?" Maya raised an eyebrow in disbelief. "Because you look whiter than Mr. Matthews when Riley asked him if she could wear eye-shadow."

Lucas gulped and shook his head slightly. "It's embarrassing."

Maya looked over at him dubiously. "Were you or were you not there when everyone found out my great-grandmother's last name was Clutterbucket? I think we're even."

"Fine." Lucas took a deep breath and started to say something just as a small breeze rocked their cart, causing him to let out a small "eep."

"You're afraid of heights," Maya realized.

Lucas could only nod his confirmation, trying desperately to ignore the dizzy feeling that was taking over. He really wished Riley was here with him right now. Riley would hold his hand and tell him everything was going to be okay, whereas Maya would…

...punch him in the arm.

"Ow!" he yelped. "What was that for?"

"Why did you offer to go with me on the Ferris wheel if you're afraid of heights, you dummy?" she asked.

Lucas scratched his head nervously. "I don't know. It's all you've been talking about for the last two weeks, and Riley and Farkle didn't want to go, so I thought I would go with you."

Maya stared at him intently, as if she was debating something in her mind. Finally, she said, "What's your favorite color?"

"What?" Lucas asked incredulously.

"Mine's orange," she remarked. "Like the kind in the sunset. I can still remember the first sunset I ever saw. My dad took me to the beach and put me on his shoulders, and even though it was way past my bedtime, we stayed until it was pitch black."

Lucas was speechless for a moment, shocked that the usually very private Maya Hart has willingly shared something so personal.

"I like blue," he said eventually.

Maya nodded at this information. "When was the last time you went to a fair?"

"Not since my mom and I moved here," he replied. "We used to have one every week back in Texas. And before you say it, no, it wasn't because my family was a bunch of circus freaks."

Maya smirked amusedly. "Actually Ranger Rick, I was going to say look down."

"No way," Lucas declared. "That makes it worse."

"Just look." Maya smiled.

Slowly, Lucas lowered his eyes and saw the terrifying look of the…grass.

He turned towards her in disbelief, "We're on the ground?"

"Yup," she said, smiling wider.

"But, how did I not feel us moving?" he asked in disbelief.

"I distracted you," she explained. "It's something my mom taught me when I was little and scared of thunderstorms. You just talk until it's over."

"Thank you," he said sincerely.

"No problem," she replied. "But you owe me a snow cone, cowboy."

"It would be my pleasure, Miss Clutterbucket," he replied with a smirk.

Maya glared at him and he laughed, tipping his imaginary cowboy hat towards her, before following her to their friends.

On second thought, maybe he didn't need Riley after all.

A/N: Let me know what you think! I forgot to mention this little one-shot was based on a Tumblr prompt I received that said "Local fair, Ferris wheel, they get stuck, feelings come out." Sorry only about 3/4 of those came true! Now, who's ready for the Halloween episode? I really hope we get some Lucas/Maya!
