Riarkle/One Shots (Completed!!!)

Favorite Orange Turtleneck

Originally titled/Skirts vs Turtlenecks

A/N- I don't remember the time capsule episode at all so I'm just going to wing it. Also don't remember when Farkle really stopped wearing the turtlenecks.)

Zay, Lucas, Maya, Riley, Farkle and Isadora (Smackle) was at Topanga's putting things they found important to them in their time capsule. Farkle pulled out one of his favorite orange turtlenecks.

''You're favorite orange turtleneck.'' Riley said as she remembered him wearing it a lot last year.

''It holds a lot of sentimental value, since it was once something I wore a lot last year. As it means I have changed a lot over the last year.''

Riley smiled slightly remembering the math debate he had against Isadora around that time he had on his orange turtleneck. As Farkle kept his eyes on her as he smiled, remembering the debate back in seventh grade.

Everyone put their special something into the capsule. They all were talking, laughing and having a great time. Finishing up their drinks they all parted ways. Farkle and Riley were walking together.

''Want to go see a movie?'' Farkle asked her.

''Sure, Farkley.''

     After an hour and a half, Farkle walked Riley back to his apartment building. It was a Friday night. Farkle threw his bag in the corner of his room as he flopped down on his bed. As Riley sat her bag down on his desk chair as she sat next to him. ''It's been a while since I've been here.'' Riley told him as he laughed slightly. ''I know.'' His room had a mixture of posters of his favorite bands, science posters, and pictures of him and his parents. ''Awe, you were cute as a baby Farkle.'' Riley told as as she picked up his baby picture on his nightstand.

Farkle blushed slightly. ''I guess, Matthews.''

After a sitting in a comfortable silence for about thirty minutes.

''Where are you're parents Fark?'' 

''Business trip, won't be back for three weeks.''

   Riley couldn't help her heart breaking, his parents are tech moguls. Always away on business trips. 

''Farkle, Why did you bring me here?''

Farkle sighed, he didn't want to tell her that he was lonely as lonely could possibly get as his parents were always gone.

''I'm lonely.'' He told her as he didn't look at her. Riley didn't say anything as she pulled him into a side hug. Farkle sighed after a few minutes, getting up walking around his room.

''Remember the debate I had with Smackle a year ago?'' Farkle asked her looking at her.

Riley nodded.

''My parents promise me that they were going to be there. But you know Business. They told me the night before, that they couldn't make it. I beat Isadora at the debate. I came home to an empty house.''

Riley didn't say anything as she hugged him again.

''When I won, you jumped up and hugged me, wearing my orange turtleneck.''

Riley smiled as she let go of him remembering the day.

''Is that why you put you're orange turtleneck in the time capsule?''

''Truthfully, I don't know why I put it in there.''

''Did you want to get rid of it?''

''No, of course not, I loved that memory of you wearing it.''

Farkle sat back down on his bed as Riley stood in front of him. She pulled his face up to look him in the eyes.

''You're allowed to be sad, Farkle. Okay, you are allowed to feel what you feel, okay.''

Farkle kept eye contact with her, ''Okay.'' After a while goes by of them talking about everything. 

''Come Matthews, let's get you home.''

''Thanks for letting me talk to you, Riley''

''Anytime Farkle.''

''Want to hangout again, tomorrow? We could go get food, or walk in the park or whatever.''

''I would love too'' Riley than kissed him on the cheek. Farkle returned it blushing slightly as Riley giggled.

''My most favorite sound in the world.''

They kept on talking all the way to Riley's apartment building.

Hope you all liked this chapter, as it is obvious I didn't know where I wanted to go with this. I will update again tomorrow.
