Wanted (Lucaya)

Beat around the bush

~Lucas~

I knocked on the big wooden door. Not a minute later Farkle opened up. "We need to talk." He said dragging me in. He pulled me to the living room and I straightened myself up. "Geez, what do we have to talk about?" I asked. Farkle glared at me.

  "Well I'm just gonna say it. You have to tell Riley. No beating around the bush." He told me. I nodded. I've been thinking about that for awhile. "Well I mean we probably should not say everything..." I trailed off. "What?" Farkle asked.

  I sat on the couch. "Well Farkle it's not that easy. I can't just say I've been hooking up with Maya since high school." I explained. Farkle looked down. He knew I had a point to some degree. "Yeah but she'll figure stuff had to happen for this to happen." He replied. Damn, he was right. "We'll just ease it on her." I suggested. Farkle rolled his eyes. "Yeah that'll work. Just slowly tell your fiancé about your affair." He retorted. "It wasn't an affair!" I exclaimed.

  Farkle chuckled. "Okay. Whatever the hell you call what you and Maya are-" I cut him off. "Were. There's no more Maya and I. She doesn't like me like that. And I shouldn't like her that way either." I explained. Farkle looked toward the kitchen. "Point is that you have to tell her." He finished.

"Why can't Maya tell her?" I asked. Farkle rolled his eyes. "Because then it'd be worse. If her own fiancé wouldn't tell her then it's not worth it." He explained. I nodded slightly. "This is a fucking mess." I muttered. "Yeah it is a fucking mess Friar. But you two are going to fix it. Right?" Farkle asked.

I gulped. I hadn't talked to Maya in over a week. Then again we went years without speaking. "Yeah, of course. We're going to talk it out." I replied. Farkle nodded. "Good." He said.

I walked into my house feeling nervous. Riley will hate us. Without a doubt. I sighed and headed to the kitchen.

"Watch it huckleberry." Maya warned. My eyes widen. "O-Oh I didn't see you there." I replied. Maya glanced up at me. "Is there a problem?" She asked. I went to reply but Riley walked in. "Maya what's taking so long?" She whined. I gave her a small smile. "Oh just this giant almost trampled me." She replied annoyed. I smirked. "Sorry shortstack." I sarcastically apologized. She rolled her eyes.

"You guys are so childish." Riley said giggling. Maya smiled and walked towards Riley. "Alright come on Riles we've got a movie to watch." She announced. Riley nodded and the two left. I sighed again. Riley loves me. And I took advantage of that. I never really thought too much about it. But now I don't know if I could even forgive myself.

  "Lucas are you coming?" Riley called from our room. "Yeah." I replied walking towards them.

Hey guys so I was gonna surprise you with two chapters but some family issues came up and I really just wanna focus on that right now. But yes right now it'll be slightly awkward for Lucas. But now to fear I have it all apart of the plan.
