*Matthews' apartment. Riley's bedroom*

Riley, Maya, and I were sitting on the bay window. Riley was in the middle. "I think of this as a personal challenge issued by Missy Bradford to grow up, and to grow up fast. So what do I do?" Riley asked

"Nothing." Maya and I replied.

"Give me advice. You're a genius at this. Grow me up." Riley said.

I gave her look. "Why?"

"Because everybody else is." She said.

I shook my head. "That's not the way I see it."

"How can you see it any other way?" Riley questioned.

"Missy Bradford has decided to grow up fast. That has nothing to do with you." Maya said.

"But what if Lucas takes her to a scary movie? 'I get scared at scary movies. You'll take care of me, won't you?' Barf! Barf, I say!" Riley exclaimed.

"Riley, do you want Lucas to take you to the movies?" Maya asked.

Riley looked down. "Alone? I don't know if I'm ready for that."

"Then what do you want from him?" I asked.

"I don't know. I just, I don't want him with her. Am I jealous?" Riley asked.

Maya shook her head. "You wouldn't know how to be jealous."

"I just, I don't want him taken away from us. She's bad news. Teach me how to flirt." Riley tried to make a flirty face. 

My eyes widen. "Please don't do that."

"Not gonna do that." Maya said.

"Why not?" Riley questioned.

"I don't even know how to flirt. Who our age knows how to flirt?" Maya questioned.

Farkle popped up from the window. "Hello, ladies." He climbed in.

I gave him a look. "Farkle, you were out there?"

Farkle nodded, "I'm always out there."

"Farkle, you're the biggest flirt in seventh grade." Riley said.

Farkle smiled. "Why, thank you."

"Can you teach me how to flirt with Lucas?" Riley questioned.

Farkle nodded, "I would do whatever you asked me."

"But I thought you loved her." Maya said.

Farkle nodded again. "I love all of you. I want you happy."

I smiled, "you're sweet Farkle. You know that?" I kissed his cheek.

"Oh no." Farkle froze and fell to the ground. 

*John Quincy Adams Middle School cafeteria*

Riley, Maya, and I were sitting at a table together. I was in the middle. 

"So you think he'll sit with us or, her?" Riley looked at Missy who was sitting at the table in front of us.

"I try not to worry about things I have no control over." Maya said.

"Really? Because that's all I do." Riley smiled.

I laughed, "oh we know."

Farkle walked over. "Hey, can I sit with you guys?"

Riley smiled. "You better."

"So you think he'll sit with us, or her?" Farkle glared at Missy.
