I DO NOT own Girl Meets World!

First things first:

1.) I am changing most of this episode completely.

2.) The ending will be the same where the kids tell Cory he is going to high school with them.

3.) I am going to add more to then ending.

4.) Lucas finally decides it's time to make a move with Maya but will he actually do it? Lets find out.

"You didn't teach us enough?" Riley said to her father at the table.

"Can't we just have a meal?" he replied.

…

"Maya's the strongest person I know. Nothing could break Maya." Topanga said just before Maya entered the picture.

Maya flung the door open slowly and stood in the door way with a pouty look on her face. She then dropped to the floor as if she had broke.

"Awww, what's the matter?" Topanga said getting up to comfort her. (I think we all loved this moment.)

Maya just pouted her head no.

"Who's fault is it?" Topanga asked knowing the answer already.

"Matthews!" Maya said pointing to Cory.

"Of course." he said dropping his utensil.

"You didn't teach us enough." Maya said walking to the table to sit.

"Yea dad you're more than just a teacher to me. You're like a father to me."

"Thanks?" Cory said confused.

**Jump to school.

Class was semi-normal. The only change was Maya didn't have her arm on Lucas's desk with her body half facing each way so she was in the front and the back.

Matthews was talking about he has so much more to teach them, but their moving on to learn even more. He wished he could go with him but he cannot.

Maya's eyes were glossy because she was feeling uneasy about moving on.

**Jump to scene where the friendship bench is donated.

"We feel that with every obstacle you all should have a place where you can feel safe." Riley said

After the bench ceremony was over the students were told to return to class.

The group had P.E.

"I'm going to use the restroom before I go back." Maya said to Riley walking off in the other direction.

Lucas noticed this and hung back hoping to catch her before she got to far. He let Riley and Farkle walk ahead hoping to go unnoticed. Once he felt it was right he ditched them and ran after Maya.

"Maya!" Lucas shouted trying to get her to stop.

"Huckleberry, not now." Maya said continuing on.

"Maya can we please talk?"

"In a minute." she said walking into the girls bathroom.

Lucas waited.

A few minutes Maya came out looking startled.

"That was more than a minute." Lucas joked.

"Terrible sorry." Maya said heading towards class.

"Maya wait, can we just talk for a second?" he said grabbing her hand stopping her.

"What do you want to talk about Sundance?" Maya said finally acknowledging him.

"I want to talk about us. What we are."

"Were friends Ranger Rick. What more do you need?"

"Maya it's not what I need, it's what I want, and I want you."

"Huckleberry I can't do this right now." Maya said scratching her forehead.

"Why not? Now's a good time as any." he said pleading.

"Can we please just go to class?" Maya asked starting to walk off.

"Maya we need to talk about this."

"There's nothing to talk about."

"Maya."

She ignored him and kept walking.

"Maya!" He said grabbing her arm with her instinctively ripping it away and turning around angry.

"Lucas just stop! I can't do this right now!" Maya yelled at him.

He was completely confused. She always talks to him, he didn't get what was different now.

Maya went to class leaving Lucas standing in the hall alone.

**Jump to Maya's home.

Maya just looked at the envelope. It was from Kermit. She just wondered what could be in it that was worth sending to her. She thought she made it pretty clear she wanted nothing from him and nothing to do with him.

She took a deep breath and opened it. As she was reading she just became more and more confused. Her world was turning upside down and in just one instant her mouth dropped open. She had no idea what to do next.

**Skip to before Graduation Ceremony.

Maya was with Riley. They were talking about what the future holds next for them. Maya was in the conversation but her mind was else where.

Lucas stared at them from afar. He was standing with Farkle and Zay. Farkle and Zay were talking but Lucas wasn't listening.

"Earth to Lucas." Zay said waving his hand in front of his face.

"Huh? What?" Lucas said snapping out of his daze.

"So have you decided yet?"

"About what?" Lucas questioned.

"About Maya. Are you gonna do it or what?" Zay said.

"I think so. I just need to get her alone… again."

"Good luck with that." Farkle said.

All three of them knew Maya was going to be hard to target because her guard was fully up and prepared for anything and everything.

"Someone's gotta distract Riley. Maya doesn't talk to any of our other class mates and our parents aren't here so she'll have no one to hide behind."

"Yea but who?" Zay asked.

They both looked at each other and then at Farkle.

"Why me?" Farkle pleaded.

"Because Riley loves you and she knows anything you have to say is going to be important." Lucas replied.

"Fine." Farkle said looking over at the girls. "Umm, I'm not gonna have to do that." Farkle said.

"What?" Why not?" Zay said.

Farkle pointed. Riley was talking to Charlie and Maya wasn't with them.

"Crap." Lucas said. "She could be anywhere." He headed for the door on a mission to find her.

He made his way through the halls. He found Maya sitting on the "friendship bench". She was staring at something in her hands.

"Maya." he said snapping her out of her daze.

Her head shot up and she immediately hid the letter in her gown.

"Huckleberry." She said faking a smile. "What's up?"

"Nothing." he said sitting next to her.

"So you came out here to distract me for nothing?" She questioned.

He didn't say anything.

They sat in silence.

"Well as much fun as this is I should be getting back to Riley." Maya said breaking the silence getting up.

"Maya wait." Lucas said grabbing her hand.

She sat back down politely.

"Maya I need to tell you something."

"Okayy." she said looking at him compliantly unlike earlier today.

"Maya, I like you."

Maya took a deep breath.

"I know that you said we couldn't have our chance now due to Riley, but I know that she is okayy with it, with us."

"You don' get it do you?" Maya said.

Lucas was confused.

"I know Riley is okayy with us. She's told me."

"Then why don't we take advantage of this?" Lucas asked.

"She's my best friend Lucas. She liked you. She really liked you. I know she still does and is slowly moving on, but the fact that it was you and her for so long… she isn't ready to have a bombshell hit her right now."

"But Maya she said-"

"I know what she said!" Maya interjected strongly. "Look, I can't do this right now. Somethings going on that's a little more important than you & I right now." Maya got up and began to walk away.

This was it. It was now or never. He had to do it now or regret it forever. He got up and ran after her.

"Maya wait!" Lucas said grabbing her arm pining her against the lockers (not in a bad or aggressive way).

"Lucas could you please just-"

"No Maya! I need to tell you this because if I don't now then I don't when I'll get another chance."

Maya stayed quiet.

"Maya I like you. You know that. I've said it many times. You send me mixed signals all the time. One minute were fine and the best of friends and then in the next minute you're shutting me out like you are right now. You know I like you. I want to be with you Maya."

Her eyes were glossy.

"I want to be there for you all the time Maya. You deserve to be happy and I want to bring you that happiness." he grabbed her hands.

She was compliant.

He took a deep breath.

"I am going to try something and I hope that you don't hate me for it. I'm leaving for Texas for the summer and I want to come back knowing that you are mine." he said.

Lucas was all of a sudden leaning in. His forehead was against Maya's. She didn't say anything. She was trying not to cry. He took his hand and grabbed her face gently. He slowly pulled her into a kiss.

Maya didn't resist. Deep down she wanted to do that for a long time, and she never thought that it would actually happen, but it was right now.

Their lips parted and they just looked at each other. A tear escaped Maya's eye. She looked down.

"I'm sorry, I can't do this right now." She said before running off.

"Maya!" Lucas shouted but he didn't follow.

He just didn't get it. He knows that she likes him, so why was she being so resistant.

Maya got to the bathroom and locked herself into a stall and just burst. She was just so overwhelmed with everything that was happening.

"Maya? Are you in here?" she heard Riley say.

She sniffled and replied. "Yea Riles. I'm here."

"Peaches are you okayy?" she asked concerned.

Maya let herself out of the stall and walked over to the sink.

"Peaches what's wrong?"

Maya just shook her head no. She didn't want to burden Riley with her problems.

"It's okayy Peaches, you can talk to me."

Silence.

"Is it Lucas?"

Maya looked at Riley.

"Riles I'm sorry." Maya started.

"Peaches don't be. I know you like him and he likes you so why are you fighting so hard?"

Maya was confused.

Riley just smiled.

"Peaches if you want to be together then you need to let your guard down."

"But what about you?"

"I'll be fine." Riley smiled. "I kind of just made a date with Charlie."

"Gardner?" Maya questioned semi shocked.

"Yea. I know right. Who would've thought!" Riley laughed.

Maya became silent.

"Maya please talk to me."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course Peaches. I'm here for you always."

Maya smiled at that. She took a deep breath and blurted it out.

"Lucas kissed me." Maya slowly looked up at Riley.

"Was it bad? Did you not want him to?"

"No I did. And it was good."

"Then what's the problem?" Riley asked.

"I don't know." Maya finally admitted. "I like him. I really do… but-"

"But you're scared that he's gonna leave just like Kermit." Riley interjected.

Maya wiped a tear from her cheek.

"Maya I know for a fact that Lucas is here to stay." Riley reassured her. "He would never leave you, or any of us."

"I'm scared Riles. I've never done this before."

"I know Peaches. Neither have I. Everything is new territory for us." Riley said grabbing Maya's hand.

Maya smiled knowing that Riley was there no matter what. Riley pulled Maya into a huge best friend hug.

Once they released they stayed silent.

"Are you going to be okayy?" Riley asked.

"I think so." Maya answered. "I hope so."

"I love you Peaches."

"I love you too Riles."

They smiled at each other.

"Are you okayy now? Need to talk about anything else."

Maya stayed silent for a second and thought about the letter Kermit sent. Should she tell Riley? Was now the right time when Maya wasn't even sure if it was real? Maya decided against it.

**While all this was happening:

"So she just ran off?" Zay asked.

"That's so unlike Maya." Farkle said.

"I know. She said something bigger was happening but I didn't bother to ask. Oh god. I was being selfish."

"No you weren't. You had to do it otherwise you would've missed your chance." Zay said.

"But what if she thinks I forced her to kiss me? I don't want her to think I'm forcing her into anything." Lucas said. He was upset with himself now.

"Lucas calm down. " Farkle said. "I've known Maya forever. If something bigger is happening Riley is going to fix it and then Maya will be back."

The two girls then walked back into the gym. Lucas spotted them right as they walked through the doors. They were arm in arm, protecting each other. He just stared at them. Maya glimpsed over for a second but immediately looked away. She wasn't ashamed, but nervous. Lucas of course didn't know this.

**After the Ceremony.

"I'm so proud of you baby girl! You are now the most educated person in our family." Katy joked.

"You didn't graduate middle school?" Maya questioned. "Here." she said handing Katy her diploma.

"It's was a joke. I am a high school graduate with 3 days of college under my belt. It would've been longer if I had taken classes that I understood so take classes you understand baby girl!"

Maya couldn't help but smile.

You all know the end how Cory found out he was going back to high school. Let's add more.

Riley had asked her parents if she and her friends could go for ice cream before they all went their separate ways for the night. They agreed and left the children to be amongst each other. Up on the roof Riley offered to buy everyone ice cream and they began to make their way down.

"Huckleberry wait." Maya said stopping him.

They hung back for a second.

"I'm sorry for earlier. I didn't mean to run off like that."

"No Maya, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to force you into anything you weren't ready for."

"It's not that." Maya started. "I like you too."

Lucas smiled. Maya smiled back.

"It's just…"

Lucas smile faded.

Maya pulled out the envelope and handed it to him.

Lucas took it and opened it and began to read it. He became very confused.

"Maya this says… this says you have a sister." Lucas said looking up.

"I know. Kermit sent it."

"A twin sister." Lucas said looking at it again. "When did you-"

"Today." Maya cut him off. "After school when I got home it was there on the ground inside the door."

Lucas just looked at her.

"That's why I ran off after you… I was so overwhelmed with everything and I didn't want you to see me cry." Maya walked over to the ledge to look at the city lights.

Lucas folded the letter back up, put it back in the envelope and set it on the table. He walked up beside her and grabbed her hand.

"So what does this mean? Does Riley know?"

"No. I didn't tell her."

"Why not?"

"I wasn't sure how. I'm not even sure if all this is true."

Lucas just looked at her. Maya was looking at the city.

"What do you think I should do?" She said looking at him.

"I think you should take time to think. Ask your mom about all of this."

They stood in silence for a few minutes before Maya broke the silence.

"So does this mean you and I are a thing now?"

"I don't know. Do you want it to be?" Lucas said looking at her.

She smiled. "Of course Huckleberry."

He smiled and picked her up and spun her around.

She laughed.

"Heehaw!"

"I'm sorry. It's just I've been waiting for you to say yes for a long time now."

She giggled. Her smile faded quickly though.

"So you're leaving for the summer?"

He took a deep breath. "Yes. My father requested I stay with him for the summer."

"Oh." was all Maya said.

"Maya. Look at me." Lucas said pulling her attention. "I am 100% yours no matter where I am this summer."

Her smile instantly came back. This time she initiated the kiss. She quickly reached up and pulled his head down to hers. She was on her toes with her arms around his neck and his arms were around her waist lifting her up more.

The broke apart and rested their foreheads against one another.

"I'm yours too." Maya whispered. Lucas smiled and gave her another small kiss.

They just stood there for a few moments.

Maya giggled a little before breaking the silence. "We should go before the others think we were kidnapped or something."

Lucas smiled. He held out his hand and she perfectly fit hers into it. She smiled at him and thy went on their way.

**At the ice cream parlor.

Maya and Lucas walked through the door jingling the little bell. Riley, Farkle, and Zay turned their attentions directly to them.

"And where have you two been?" Zay asked sarcastically.

"Yea. We thought you got kidnapped." Riley chimed in.

"No need to worry. We're perfectly fine." Maya said.

"Really now?" Zay asked smiling.

"Really." Lucas said holding up their intertwined hands.

"YAYY!" Riley screamed running over to Maya hugging her.

Lucas walked over and sat in a chair.

"I'm so happy for you Peaches!" Riley exclaimed.

"Thanks Riles." Maya giggled and smiled.

"So everything's good?" Zay asked under his breath.

"Everything's good." Lucas replied.

"Well I don't know about you all…" Riley said as she and Maya walked back over to the group. "But I think this is going to b the best summer ever!" she exclaimed.

She sat down next to Farkle and Maya sat next to Lucas. He put his arm around her.

"The best." he said smiling at Maya. She smiled.

"To us!" Riley said holding up her drink.

"To us!" They all cheered.

Maya was happy right now but she knew it was going to be a long summer…
