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

Riley spent the rest of the day trying to find out what's the name of the girl who's been on her mind all day. I guess you could say Riley was kind of a player. And basically everybody knew that. But this... This felt different. As Riley turned a corner she ran into someone.

"Sorry I didn't see yo-" Riley stopped for a second and realized it was her.
"Well hello there.." Riley said and smirked. "Hi Riley." Maya said and chuckled a little. "So... Can you finally let me take you out?" Riley asked like it was obvious Maya was into her.

"And what makes you think I'm interested in you like that?" Maya asked. "Oh, you're not?" Riley asked a little shocked. A girl never turned her down before. Usually everyone would be begging to go on a date with Riley.

"No, not really." Maya said not even convincing herself.

Riley took a few steps forward so her lips were almost touching Maya's ear.
"Then I'm gonna make you fall for me." Riley said, confidence flowing from her.

"Yeah good luck with that honey." Maya said totally not believing Riley can do it, but Riley had her ways with girls.

"See, you're already calling me honey." Riley said. Maya just scoffed and walked away to her next class.

But Riley had plan. A plan to make her fall, and fall hard. But first, she has to find out the girl's name.

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

As Riley walked to her class she heard Maya's voice. She followed it and ended up at Maya's locker.

"...Did she say?" Riley heard a guy's voice say, as she hid so Maya wouldn't see her. "Sorry bud, she's not interested." She replied. Riley assumed the guy was Maya's friend that she talked about before.

"Are you sure??" He asked sounding sad. Maya nodded.

"Do you know why?" He asked.

"She isn't into guys..." Maya spoke slowly.
"You're kidding right? She's a dyke?"

"Dude have some respect!" Maya snapped. "So what if she's gay? Does that mean she's any less of a person?" Maya exclaimed.

"Sorry Maya, you're right." He said.

Riley never had someone to stand up for her like that. And she barely knew the girl. Wait... What was the name he said? Maya? It's Maya! Yess! A few seconds passed an the bell rang. Riley quickly walked to her next class with a huge smirk on her face.

As she entered class she saw Maya sitting all the way to the back so she took a seat next to her.

"Hey Riley." Maya said flashing a smirk to Riley.

"Oh, hey Maya."

Maya's smirk became a full on smile.

"Congratulations! So how did you find out?" Maya asked.

"Oh it's a secret." Riley responded with a smirk not even looking at Maya, just keeping her gaze (gays XD) on the board.

"So, there's this party on Friday, are you coming?" Riley asked Maya who was now taking notes in her notebook.

"Probably." Maya replied.

"Cool.."

"Cool."

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

It's the night of the party and Riley wanted to look extra hot. All part of her little plan. She went with a plain white t-shirt, a black fake leather jacket, black skinny jeans ripped at the knees and her black converse. She brushed her hair a little and went out the door to the house the party was in.

She arrived and immediately her eyes began looking for Maya. Riley assumed Maya hasn't arrived yet and went to the kitchen to get herself a beer until Maya gets here. She took a sip of her beer, casually leaning on the counter.

Maya arrived at the party and met her best friend Farkle there. They started to talk and decided it was time for some drinks. They went to the kitchen and Maya recognized that red hair in a second. Riley. Farkle grabbed two red cups filled with beer and handed one to Maya.

"Thanks." Maya said and Riley looked over so quickly that Maya was sure she got whiplash.

Riley couldn't believe it. She was so invested in her phone that she didn't even notice Maya.

"Maya.." Riley said with a smirk.

"Riley.." Maya said copying Riley.

"Farkle.." Farkle said mocking both of them.

"Oh right, Riley, this is Farkle, my best friend. Farkle this is Riley, my... Never mind."

"Sup?" Riley said.

"Nice to meet you Riley." Farkle said shaking Riley's hand.

"You too." Riley replied politely.

"Hey Maya, there's Lucas. Do you think I have a chance?" Farkle said staring at his crush since 8th grade.

"Probably not." Maya said bluntly.

"I'll take it!" Farkle said and began walking towards Lucas.

"So are you having fun?" Riley asked, taking another sip from her beer bottle.

"Yeah I guess."

"Riley!" Someone suddenly yelled. A red haired girl suddenly engulfed Riley in a hug, and the girl was obviously very drunk.

"Bella, are you ok?"

Bella didn't say anything, she just started kissing Riley. and to Maya's surprise, Riley kissed back.

But for Riley, it was an old dream come true. She used to have such a huge crush on Bella last year. But as the kiss began to get heated, Riley realized that was just that! An old dream come true. Her feelings for Bella were gone. But when Riley finally realized that and broke off the kiss... Maya wasn't there anymore. She was gone.
