The gang decided they just wanted to hangout in the hotel for a bit, so they went up to the room to relax before they continued their adventure. Riley and Maya sat on the floor together and decided to talk more about their fight. Riley couldn't help but glance up at the bruise on Maya's forehead.

Maya noticed and whispered, "I know you're just being protective, but it's okay. I'm okay."

Riley looked at Maya's eyes and sighed a little, knowing she was right. She kissed Maya's cheek. "I'm just worried about you."

Maya knew that she couldn't fight with her about that. She had every right to be worried about her. Maya placed a hand on Riley's cheek. "I know, and I honestly dont blame you, but I'm okay."

Riley leaned into Maya's touch and looked into Maya's eyes again.

Maya smiled warmly and stroked Riley's cheek a little.

"I love you, you know," Riley whispered softly.

Maya's smile widened and she gently kissed her forehead. "I love you too."

Riley leaned against Maya's shoulder. "I'm sorry about yesterday, I was kind of... annoying about it."

Maya leaned against Riley's head and whispered, "It's okay. You meant well, I just took it the wrong way."

Riley moved her arm so It was around Maya and sighed. "I don't deserve your love and forgiveness, but thanks anyway, Peaches."

Maya kissed Riley on the temple and whispered, "You deserve all the love in the world, Riley."

Riley had to choke back her tears. "After everything I've ever said to you... you still think that?"

Maya smiled. "I just don't think that, I know you deserve it." Maya then smirked and continued, "Besides, now we're even. I accidentally hurt your head and you accidentally hurt mine. It's all even now."

Riley laughed a little. "Well when you put it that way, it makes it seem like everything is fine." She carefully touched her forehead to Maya's, smiling widely. "You know how much I care about you, right?"

Maya nuzzled Riley cheek. "No, I have no idea, please tell me," she replied sarcastically.

Riley smiled mischievously.

Maya raised her eyebrow, but said nothing.

Riley's smile widened as she loosely wrapped her arms around Maya's neck. "I care about you so much, I can hardly even put it into words."

Maya eyes started to water as she looked into Riley's eyes, seeing how serious she was.

"And with that comes me being overly protective," Riley continued, "and I'm sorry I was protecting you from me."

A tear escaped and silently rolled down Maya's cheek.

Riley wiped it away and smiled.

Maya smiled back. "Oh, c'mere, you." She wrapped her arms around Riley's waist and hugged her close.

Riley relaxed into the embrace and smiled again.

By that point they had forgotten Cory and Shawn were in the room with them. They had seen the whole thing play out. Cory looked at Shawn. "I think we can officially say we are tied for the best friends ever, because that proves a lot."

Shawn nodded. "Agreed, that we honestly kind of sweet."

Cory looked at Shawn for a moment, then hugged him. Shawn hugged him back and asked, "Why are we doing this?"

"Because they do it, so why can't we?"
