Riley convinced her father to let Maya spend the night, it hadn't taken much. Currently Josh was sleeping on the couch although not much sleeping was being done. Josh couldn't believe what had happened to Maya. He thinks back to three months ago, the last time he and Maya had spoken. "Okay Boing your turn. Truth or dare?" Truth or dare had become their way of getting to know each other. As time went on the questions got more personal as they became more comfortable with each other. "Truth." He knew it was a matter of time before one question in particular got brought up and apparently Maya thought that it was the perfect time. "Have you ever slept with anyone?" He wasn't shocked that it was Maya who brought it up first. "No, I want to save that for marriage." "Me to actually." He came so close to kissing her right there, if it hadn't been for Riley barging in when they were millimeters apart they probably would have. He finally lets the tears cascade down his face. Maya didn't deserve to have this happen to her. She was an amazing person, pure and innocent. It was so unfair for one guy on the street to take that all away from her. To take away her joy. She deserved the child hood she never got. She deserved the world and the stars and the sun. But life was unfair. Since he was the only one awake he heard the scream first. He darted to Riley's room to see Maya thrashing around on the floor. "No... Please...Stop... Get off of me..." Josh quickly knelt down by her not even noticing the other people enter the room. She bolted upright and Josh tugged her to him. "It's me. Maya it's Josh, not him. You're safe now. He can't get you here." Maya slowly calmed down but continued to hold on tightly to Josh. "Maya," said Topanga, sitting on the ground next to her and Josh. "What's going on?" "Just a nightmare. I'm fine." She mumbled into Joshes chest. "Maya," says Cory, also sitting down. "You need to tell us what's going on." Maya nodded and turned around, making sure to stay in Joshes arms, not that Josh would even think about letting go. She started to tell them everything she had told Josh and Riley. By the time she is done telling them what happened she's in tears again. Riley joined them on the ground and was helping Josh comfort Maya. "If you decide to keep the baby, we would help and support you." Topanga said. "And I'm sure Shawn and Katy would be there to help you too."
"But I don't know how to be a mother!" Maya's voice is strained.
"That's why we're all here. To help you." Josh strokes her hair lightly. "You don't have to do this alone." She nods lightly and rests against him. Soon she's asleep and the rest of the family goes to bed as well. Josh lays Maya down and when he tries to leave she wakes up slightly and mumbles a small, don't leave, so he wraps his arms around her as she cuddles up next to him. They both fall into a peaceful sleep.
