Hey guys! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE REVIEWS ON THE PREVIOUS PART. Now before you read this is sort of a filler (I will explain after why) but yeah! Also don't get used to daily updates cos I have work and stuff but I've been wanting to write a new part all day and will try and update as much a possible. I hope you enjoy this part :)

Maya had the spent the last few days before school started again hiding away from everyone. She hadn't spoken to her friends much, not like usual anyway. A few texts here and there and that was it. Riley had tried to come round a couple of times but Maya had told everyone she was 'sick' and would just see them back at school. She knew she couldn't hide away forever, and that people would start to get suspicious if she continued the way she was but she just couldn't bare facing them yet.

She did miss them all though, she missed Riley, her little ray of sunshine the most. She missed her constant happiness, and her smile that made everyone around her smile . She also missed Farkle regardless of the fact he's not been there for her that much since Texas. Did she miss Lucas Friar? However much she didn't want to admit it apart of her did.

She had a knock on the door and she knew instantly who it would be. She skipped to the door and swung the wooden frame open. "Babineaux" Maya said smiling "Hart" Zay responded walking past Maya and settling right down on the couch, Maya joined him after shutting the front door.

Zay had been keeping Maya company the last few days. He was Lucas' friend but he didn't like the fact that Maya was isolating herself from the rest of the group, so came and kept her company. Zay hadn't really mentioned the situation much, and they would just watch movies and re runs of impractical jokers which still made them laugh every time.

"You do realise school starts again tomorrow and you're going to have to deal with this situation you know that right" Zay said

"Yes, and thank you for reminding me again" Maya said rolling her eyes

"I'm sorry Hart, but this isn't just going to go away" Maya sighed, she knew Zay was right. "Why can't you just tell him how you feel" Zay asked "It's clear you have feeling for him, even if you continue to deny it"

Maya stayed silent, not knowing what to say. She didn't have an answer because she doesn't know what she's doing "Zay, its not that easy" she muttered "Everyone knows that Riley loves Lucas, and everyone is doubting if I feel anything like what Riley does. Riley and Lucas are perfect for each other, they are exactly the same people but in different bodies"

"Have you ever heard that opposites attract, Riley and Lucas may be alike but that's not always a good thing sometimes it can be a terrible thing" Zay said

Maya sat in silence, she was confused with what to do. This was a mess, life was just easier when no one knew. Why did Riley have to push? Why did she have to tell Lucas that she had feelings for him?

"Look Maya, you don't have to say anything. I just want you to know that whether Lucas has feelings for you or not or whether you ever admit how you feel" Zay paused for a minute "Someone will care for you how you should be cared for, you're a great person Maya"

"You know, people might think you're going all mushy like Riley saying stuff like that" Maya laughed

He raised his hands in the air "Remind me never to say anything like that again"

Maya gave a smile "Thank you though, you're actually okay yourself"

Zay left shortly after Maya's mum returned from working a shift at Topanga's. Maya decided to go to her room and get an early night, something she didn't do often.

Maya checked her phone like she did every night before bed. She still hadnt replied back to Lucas from the other day and she started to feel bad, and she felt it might be awkward tomorrow at school if she didn't reply with something.

A/N: So another note lol. So this was a filler because ive always liked the idea of exploring Maya's friendship with Zay. I feel like they would be so badass if they were close so what I did! I'm basically trying to fulfill everything I want the goddamn writers to do in the show :) ANYWAY I'm off to start chapter 3 cos I'm enjoying this! goooooooooodbye xx
