Chapter 8

Maya's POV:

The first night at the hotel was better than I expected. Instead of coming right back to our hotel rooms, I stayed a little longer with Lucas and we just hung out. I never had the moment to do this since I was always around Riley.

We were able to have a normal conversation without anyone getting nervous.

I just hope Riley's having fun with Farkle.

Riley's POV:

As we sat down, I noticed time by time that Maya and Lucas had been gone for a while. The more they were gone, the more I got quiet. And I'm guessing that Farkle noticed.

"Thinking 'bout Lucas eh?" Farkle suddenly exclaimed.

"Farkle... Stop I'm fine."

"I've known you for a while. How could you lie thinking that I don't know that truth."

"It's nothing Farkle, I swear."

"Listen, if you love Lucas, you should be able to embrace that. I know you love Maya, but once in a while think about yourself too."

"DON'T YOU THINK I'VE TRIED? MAYA MEANS SO MUCH TO ME. I WANT HER TO BE HAPPY."

"Maya's right Farkle, how can someone not like Lucas? Ya know Farkle I don't want to talk about this on vacation."

"I know they like each other. And I want them to be together. I know love when I see it Farkle. So just stop." I said. Feeling a lot better.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Farkle never said anything until Lucas and Maya got back.

"Well you guys were out huh?" Farkle said turning back to me. Was he trying to make me jealous?

"By the way, tomorrow were going to the Blizzard WaterPark. Starting off calm on our first day. Kay?" Maya informed us.

It was about 11:30 and surprisingly I wasn't tired. Also, I didn't have my parents to boss me around about when to go to sleep. This truly was a paradise.

I hope things will be fine with me and Lucas tomorrow. But for the meantime in the hotel, I was forgetful about Lucas. We played Truth or Dare and watched "Boy Meets World."

Maya had to pull some random girls pants down, Farkle told us the worst thing he did. Which was step on grass with a "Do Not Touch" sign. Total bad boy. Lucas had to complain to the office that he can't find his phone when it was right in his hand. As for me, I refused to do anything. Truth or Dare wasn't really my kind of game.

I layed in bed on my phone watching music videos. Its what I do on my spare time. Also, I didn't really want to do anything with Lucas at the time. I was embarrassed. But I wanted him to spend time with Maya. She's hid everything for so long. Now its my turn to do the same for her.

1:53 AM

I was getting tired, and my eyes slowly closed. I didn't fall asleep quite yet because I heard whispering from the other side of the room.

Lucas and Farkle never went back to their room, therefore, they slept at our room. But I could hear Lucas and Farkle whispering to each other.

They had thought Maya and I fell asleep. Well... It's obvious Maya was asleep. The room across could hear her snore.

But the Riley I am, I listened to the conversation. I repeatedly heard them say my name, and I knew exactly what they were talking about.

"So you had fun with Maya." Farkle said to start the conversation.

"Well yeah."

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Do you like hanging out with Riley or Maya more?" I can't believe Farkle just asked that.

"I can't choose between them Farkle. Why would you ask that?"

"Because... Riley still likes you." After those words slipped from his mouth, I got up, grabbed Farkle, and brought him to the hallway. He seemed surprised. I'm not sure if it was because I was up, or I knew about what he said.

"Farkle how could you?"

"I knew you weren't going to tell anyone, so I did. Lucas needs to know."

"I didn't want him to know. I told you that Maya and Lucas need to see what I see between them. Farkle. I don't see you the same way."

"Riley I- I-"

"Don't bother." I turned around to the room. Lucas was standing right there. I ran past him with my head down, sinking myself to the bed. Wishing I could disappear. It was all part of Farkles plan to come out to the hallway.

How does Lucas feel though?

We'll just see how it goes tomorrow I said, as I closed my eyes, hearing Farkle and Lucas go back to their OWN rooms.
