Prompt. Farkle comes too Topangas' after school with a black eye.

Word count: 979

Genre: fluffy angst (if that's a thing)

I'm thinking of writing two different versions of this prompt but it'll still be Riarkle. Would anyone want that?

________________________

Farkle walked into Topangas hanging his head low. It was 10th grade this stuff shouldn't be happening anymore. He sat down in his usual spot and started on his homework avoiding any conversing or anything that could cause him to look up, even when Maya and Riley walk in.

"Farkle?" Riley asked but got no response. She stood up and walked up to Farkle, "look at me Farkle"

He didn't. She reached out and lifted his head. A gasp coursed through her. He stood up. "Farkle who did this to you?"

"Don't touch me!" He yelled slightly and pushed her out of the way. He fled Topangas in fear of making him solve the problem. Riley tried to follow after him but Zay held her back. When Farkle got home he cried. He cried until he passed out from exhaustion.

Riley looked back at the group with a worry struck face. "Something just started" Riley whispered.

The next day he didn't go too school calling a sick day. Let's just say Riley was more than just concerned. She paced up and down the pit before school

"He'll be here" Maya promised

"No he won't peaches" Riley sighed. A frown appeared on her face.

"He's never missed a day of school Riles" Maya said trying to reassure her

"He had a black eye, Maya!" Riley exclaimed before stomping of to her first period.

Farkle decided to wonder the streets for a bit. He was skipping school he couldn't face everyone especially not Riley, not after he yelled at her.

Some how he stumbled upon Riley's bay window. Who was he kidding he walked there on purpose! He needed her. He doesn't even care if she's mad at him.

He climbed through the window. Man how has she not gotten robbed? He waited there and just thought. The bay window is a sacred place for feelings right? maybe it could help.

So he sat there and stared at everything in Riley's room. From her bunny night
light to the photos on her wall. Yes he knew it was kind of creepy but he felt bad for yelling at her.

School ended and Riley decided not to go to Topangas' just yet but to her bay window to think of what to do about Farkle. When she found Farkle at her window she dropped her stuff. "Farkle?" She walked slowly towards him.

"I am so sorry riles" he said and engulfed her in a hug. She settled into the hug and wrapped her arms around him. All of sudden he just broke down into Riley shoulder. It hurt to see her best friend like this. He pulled away tears streaming down his face "he said I don't deserve you, that I don't deserve my intelligence. That I shouldn't be allowed to live"

"Never let anyone say that ever! Do you hear me" he nodded "I need you Farkle. We all do. If you were gone I don't know how I could live with myself."

"They keep telling me over and over again that they're gonna beat me so hard that I would wish that I was dead"

"Tell me who did this and I swear I will mess them up" Riley said she was now pacing her room.

"I can't he'll hurt me again"

"Fine, but you are staying the night" he obeyed. After Riley had calmed him down they laid in her bed and watched a movie. Farkle fell asleep in her lap from exhaustion. She turned her computer off and set it aside. She slid down slowly were he was on her stomach. Riley stroked his hair before eventually falling asleep.

In the morning before they left Riley put some makeup on Farkle to cover up the fading black eye.

"Do we really need to do this?"

"You can't go to school with a black eye"

"Fineh"

"Fineh" Riley responded "now will you just tell me who did this?"

"I can't"

"Then I'll tell my father"

"No!" Farkle pleaded

"I will if you don't tell me who did this."

"Look it was some kids I ran into after school" Farkle sighed "I don't go that route anymore"

"Fine but if they do this again please tell me if it happens again"

"I will"

When they got to they're lockers at the school Farkle froze in his place, Riley almost walked into him but stopped "Farkle?"

"Riley?"

"Is that him?" Farkle nodded. Riley turned Farkle around by the arm and pushed him up against a column.

"Riles what are you doing?"

"You're worth everything in the world, Farkle don't ever think differently" she grabbed his face and put her lips to his. Everyone in the hallway went silent and stared at them. Farkle was stunned but eased into the kiss. He slowly put his hands on her waist. She pulled away leaving them both out of breath.

"What the hell was that?"

"I don't know I felt like it"

"You Ms. Riley Matthews are super weird you know that?"

"Of course I now that, but I'm your weirdo" she said putting he hand on his chest.

"Ahem?" They both looked to Maya.

"Yes?" They both said at the same time.

"Would you please explain"

"Its complicated" they both said at the same time. And looked back at each other. Riley smirked,

"I'm gonna call this one my black eyed bird" Riley said pointing to Farkle's eye. Farkle smiled,

"Black eyed bird it is"
