"I killed my birth parents." It comes out and I freeze.
"NOW THAT I'VE TOLD EVERYONE WHAT I WAS TRYING TO HIDE TO SAVE PEOPLE, CAN YOU LET HIM GO?!" I screamed at Missy.
She laughs. "Nope." she puts her finger on the trigger, but I jump on her. I grab the gun, and throw it behind me.
"Maya, catch!" I hope she did.
Then the doors burst open. "Police! Freeze!" and we all do. "Where is she? The girl that attempted murder...twice!" a officer yelled. We all pointed to Missy. Her eyes grow wide. Two officers cuff Missy and lead her outside.
"I'll get you back, Matthews! All of you!" she screamed.
I look around the room, to find that everyone is staring at me. I look down.
"Look, guys. I know that you weren't expecting that. You guys can leave me if you want. I'll understand." Tears fall down my face. I collapse to my knees, and sob. I feel someone hug me. I look up to find Lucas.
"Riles, you are still you. We'll never leave you, ever. We love you for you, no matter what your past is." he then grabs my chin and kisses me.
"Okay, you guys. Nope! Not ready!" Dad pulls us apart.
"Dad! Seriously?" I face palm. "Ow, bad idea." Maya laughs. I turn around and see her behind me.
"Peaches, we'd never ever, ever leave you. We love you. For your quirky, silly, happy, stupid self." she chuckles. And then kneels down and hugs me Farkle and dad all join.
"Thanks guys." I smile and wipe my tears away.
"Oh! I totally forgot!" Maya jumps up and walks over to the book self in the corner. "My hidden camera!" Hidden camera?
She must've seen the look on my face. "To prove what Missy did in court. They're going to need some proof." she smirks. She kneels back down next to me. I wrapped my arm around her. "Have I told you that I think you're pretty fierce?" I smile, and she laughs.

Maya's POV
"A lot has happened this year, guys. Farkle and I got together. Missy freaking ruined everything that she knew about. She put a gun to Riley and Mr. M's heads. They almost died. We told each other things. Sometimes not in the best way." I look at Riles, and she chuckles. "We've hung out a lot, and there are days that I'll never forget. Ever. But, the things that makes those moments so special, is you guys. I love you guys." I wrapped an arm around Riley and Farkle. Lucas wrapped an arm around Riley. Hint of jealousy shaken off. We all smile.
"I love you guys, too." Riley repeated along with Farkle and Lucas. We smiled, and walked out the doors, to our new lives.
I turned around, to find Mr. M, watching us, and smiling.
"Thank you." I mouthed.
He nodded.
Thank you.
A/N
