"Remember last year when I made a lesson on trust?" Rhetoriced my dad. "Well this will be an addition to that."

"You already said what you need to say Mathews!" Farkle rolls his eyes.

"Which is?" My Dad asks.

"The truth will come out whether you want it to or not." Maya smiles at Lucas. "I know from personal experience."

"Farkle?" My dad asks.

"Even if you lie with good intentions..." I feel his eyes burn the back of my head "It will come out sooner or later."

"What happens next?" Dead silence. "Does the person forgive the liar? Does the friendship end? If you don't have an honest relationship it's not a good relationship, a relationship built on lies by you or another are doomed at the start."

*************

At lunch I sit down in between Farkle and Maya. Maya is next to Lucas and next to Lucas, Zay.

"So I was thinking Lucas tonight we should go out to Topanga's" said Maya, he shrugs, not really paying attention. As she talks his eyes drift over to me as I toss my hair back. Our eyes meet, then I redirect.

"So how are you and Charlie?" Farkle asks me sarcastically. I kick him under the table.

"It's fine, he is nice, still no talking or holding hands, perfect." I say. Lucas shoots me a look of jealousy, but I do my best to ignore it.

"That sounds just like us hop-a-long! It's fate!" She says smiling at him. He turns to her.

"I guess..." He says with an unsure smile as they playfully nudge each other, I stand up.

"I'm going to go to the bathroom real quick" I say.

"With your food? You haven't took a bite!" Maya says, Lucas looked concerned.

"Not really hungry, throwing it away" I say.

"Well at least give it to me! So selfish!" Zay whines.

I give him my tray and leave the cafeteria.

I go into the hallway and walk outside, the sky is so extremely beautiful today, a deeper blue than earlier.  I wish I could fly up and touch the cotton candy clouds, just spill into the pools of the sky and forget it all.

A tear rolls down my cheek. I quickly wipe it I then go into the school courtyard. It's not too big, there are only just a flew flower beds, garden tables, and umbrellas, I walk on the stone paved path when a voice behind me says;

"I will do it."
