Hey! It's Christine. Yay! Today is my birthday; January 31! Yes, you write me a message either in my inbox or in my profile. I would appreciate it. Anyway, I am being nice by posting a new chapter today for all of you. You've been so nice to me and I owe it all to my cupcakes and followers. So, please vote, comment and like my chapter because it took me a half a hour to write this chapter. Happy reading! :)

We were still in the school dance just having some fun. The song, "Same Old Love", stopped playing and the song, "Written in the Stars" by the Girl and the Dreamcatcher started playing. (A/N: If you haven't seen or heard the song, the video is above the chapter. Thanks!) Things went down tonight, like Riley yelling at Lauren.

We (Lucas and I) danced and chatted a little. We were smiling at each other as we dance together in the day of love.

"So, do you like this song?" I asked.

"It's my first time hearing it so, no." Lucas replied. "So since today is the dance and it's also Valentine's Day, I wanted to give you this." He took out a small black box out of his pocket and laid it on his hand.

I smiled and gasped. "Lucas, I-"

"Open it, Maya." He gave the box to me as I quickly grab it from him. I open it and I see a heart shaped necklace that said L + M together. I looked at it, smiled at it, and at him too. I took it out and looked at the heart.

"Oh my, goodness. A necklace, I love it. Thank you, Huckleberry." I replied and complimented when he gently took the bracelet out, turned around behind me, as I hold my hair up and let him put the necklace on my neck. When he was done, I looked at and gave him a hug behind him.

"That's me, being a great boyfriend."

I kissed him on the lips again. "I love you."

He widened his eyes. He couldn't believe I just said that. "Maya... I... uh..."

"Come on! It's not like you didn't hear those three little words before! I have to say that, because we're dating and I really love you." Yes. I said those words. I had to because I loved him so much and I never had the decency to tell him yet.

"I love you too. Thanks for being my girlfriend. Not only you made an big impact on me when I came her on my Texas self, but you light up my whole world."

I hug him, then I pull away. "Thanks. And I would want to say thanks for telling me advice that are really helpful, and being there for me, if I ever get insulted by that stupid Missy Bradford."

"No problem. We're always there for each other." We hugged and kissed once again as we heard a voice that was saying "aww!". It was Riley.

"Aw!" Riley grinned and looked at us. We turned around as we saw her holding Farkle's hand.

I turned around and rose an eyebrow at her and crossed my arms. "Really, Riley? We were just having a couple moment here."

"Yeah, sorry for ruining that. I really like seeing you two together all the time, Maya." Riley smiled as she walked over to us, letting go of Farkle's hand.

"Me too. When we're together." He puts my arm around me. Riley looks down and Farkle walked to her and looks at her.

"Riles, what's wrong?" He asked. Riley looked up again and smiled.

"Nothing. I'm just thirsty. I should go grab a cup of fruit punch." Riley walked out of here, which that leaved me, Farkle and Lucas concerned and confused.

"I should probably go after her. Later!" Farkle walks away to where Riley went near the appetizer table.

"What was that about?" I questioned.

"I don't know. But whatever it is, it doesn't look right."

A/N: OMG! Is Riley's feelings getting a little crazier? Why did she walk out the conversation? Maybe, just enjoy the upcoming chapter.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTINE! :)
