I don't own Girl Meets World

"Why did you do that Lucas ?" I whispered in bewilderment, I could still taste the chocolate milkshake that he had had 30 minutes prior, lingering on my lips. "I don't know why I did that Maya, I just wanted you to stop!" He said defensively. "Couldn't you think of another way of stopping me?" I yelled, "Not at the time, no, I couldn't !!!" He yelled back me. I sat down on the log and he came and sat next to me, "Maya, I like you," he sighed, "I think I always have, from the moment I saw you on the subway, I was intrigued by you and the wild spark you had in your eyes, I-" I interrupted him before he could finish "Lucas stop, you are not supposed to like me, you're supposed to like Riley, you are supposed to be the Topanga to her Corey.  You. Like. Riley. That's the way it's supposed to be Lucas. Riley is the one who gets the guy and has a the perfect fairytale life, with her knight in shining armour on a white horse, Lucas, that's you!"

He moves closer to me, taking my hands in his and I can't help but feel guilty because of the spark I feel when he touches me. He peers into my eyes and it feels like he's looking directly into my soul and can see everything I'm feeling. "Maya, why do I have to be with Riley, why can't you be the one who gets the guy, Maya, you deserve happiness too," He tells me with such conviction that it makes me realises how much I want to be with him, "Maya, I like you, please give me a chance, give us a chance, please Maya" he whispered, pleading with me.

I stood up, let go of his hand and walked closer to the fire, watching the flames dance around each other, "Lucas, even though I want to, I can't hurt Riley like this, I'm her best friend, her happiness is the most important thing to me." I whispered, "There is no us, Lucas." I murmured softly to myself, hoping that he didn't hear me, but he did "Maya, how can there be an us if you don't give me a chance. One date, that's all I'm asking, and if it doesn't work out I'll leave you alone, Riley won't ever have to find out." He reasoned with me.

It doesn't sound so bad, it's just one date, and if it doesn't work out, then Riley would never have to find out and her fairytale life can go on forever. What Lucas said really stuck, I think I do deserve a tiny bit of happiness and that I should do something for myself. I sighed and said smirking, "Fine, I'll go out with you, but this doesn't mean I won't still use your nicknames but-", "I wouldn't have it any other way, ma'am," he interrupted me, whilst smirking and tipping his imaginary hat at me trying to be funny and make me laugh, it worked. "As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted by a Hee-Haw," I mock glared at him and he laughed and held his hands up palms up in a way of showing he's surrendering and that he's innocent, "I will still use your nicknames, and also I think that I might possibly like you too, just by like this much though," I said holding out my thumb and index finger really close together, about half an inch apart, showing him the tiny amount of space that I may have feelings for him.

He laughed and then he, and I kid you not, he fist bumped the air and whooped making me laugh. We sat down next to each other, quietly smiling from ear to ear, leaning against each other slightly, just watching the fire.

Then he had to go and ruin the atmosphere by trying to hold my, which was in my lap, I glanced down at our hands and asked " Um, what do you think you're doing Hop-along?"  "I was just trying to hold your hand, " he stated like it was obvious. "But why, I never said you could hold my hand," I told him removing our now laced fingers, "Well I just thought that since you said yes to the date that we could-" he began rambling mostly to himself while looking down shyly and rubbing the back of his neck. "Well you thought wrong, the deal was that we go on one date and that's it. There is no hand holding involved, you got that Bucky McBongBong?" I asked him in a faux serious tone and he smiled a bright smile, " Of course Short-stack, I apologise if I over stepping my boundaries, ma'am." He said in an over exaggerated southern accent, I shoved him slightly and he chuckled and winked at me.

He stood up from the log and held is hands out to help me up. We walk silently back to Pappy Joe's, stopping ever so often to look at the stars and scenery. We got to the ranch and parted ways, us I got to the room that I shared with Riley I immediately felt a rush of guilt as a looked at her sleeping peacefully and I thought to myself, "What did I just get myself into," with that final thought I brushed my teeth, washed my face of all the make-up and I changed into my PJ's and fell into a deep sleep where I dreamt of white horses and moral compasses.
