The next morning Lucas and Auggie got a small bag ready so that they could spend some time in the park as planned the day before while Riley gets ready.

They join everyone for breakfast when Maya says, "Riles today we are going to spend some time together because we finally have a day to relax today. No wedding talk today because we are having a best friends only day."

Riley replies, "Peaches, I appreciate the idea, but I actually already promised Auggie that I'll spend some time with him today."

Maya says, "Oh, no problem. I'm sure Auggie won't mind if you postponed those plans."

Riley looks conflicted so Lucas replies, "It's alright Riley. Auggie and I will spend some quality brother time today, won't we buddy?"

Auggie looks at Lucas who discretely gestures to say yes so, he nods in agreement.

Riley sighs in relief and leaves with Maya for whatever plans her best friend had in mind for the day.

Lucas sees that Auggie looks a bit down because of the events of the day and asks, "Hey Aug, how about we work on your baseball skills today, huh?"

Auggie immediately perks up and runs to get his baseball equipment which makes Lucas smile.

Topanga says, "Thank you for handling the situation so well"

Lucas replies, "I know that Riley didn't want to hurt either Auggie or Maya's feelings. I could easily handle Auggie, so I told her to go with Maya. Besides, I love to spend time with my new buddy."

Cory says, "I know Lucas, but still thank you. Auggie doesn't really like Maya very much because she usually ruins his plans with Riley, so I'm glad that he has you now."

Lucas nods understanding and replies, "I'll have a chat with him about it later"

Auggie comes out with his baseball equipment and then leaves with Lucas for the park.

-------

At the park, Lucas teaches Auggie how to properly grip and swing his bat before throwing him some pitches to practise. He then teaches the little boy how to throw the ball properly so that they can get the batters out.

After some time, they decide to take a small break and remove the food they had packed in the morning.

Auggie nervously asks, "Hey Lucas, can I ask you something?"

Lucas replies, "Sure buddy"

Auggie asks, "Don't you feel bad when Riley cancels her plans with you because of Maya?"

Lucas chuckles lightly and replies, "I had a feeling we would be having this conversation. But to answer your question, honestly, yes I do feel bad, but it's not like it's Riley's fault."

Auggie says, "Of course not. It's Maya's fault."

Lucas notices that Auggie had said Maya's name a bit rudely and replies, "Maybe, but you shouldn't be mad at her for that."
