Landing on you ; Rucas

Chapter Three

   I woke up with an unusual smile on my face, considering it was Monday. I guess it was because I haven't seen Lucas since Saturday, but oh well.

I picked out my outfit, a tshirt, skinny jeans, boots and I decided to wear one of Lucas' baseball hats that he gave me for my birthday.

"Hey Riles, you ready?" Maya came through the bay window.

"Yeah, let's go." I looked into the mirror one last time, and smiled.

Once we got to school, I stuffed the textbooks for my other classes into my locker and grabbed my history one.

The bell signalling the beginning of class was going to go off in two minutes, but Lucas wasn't in class yet.

"Hey, have you seen Lucas?" I asked Maya, but she just shrugged.

"No clue, sorry Hun." Then I asked farkle,

"Sorry Riles, I saw him this morning. He seemed fine, I don't know why he isn't here right now." 

"Oh, okay thanks." I sat back down in my seat as the bell rang. Where could he be?

Lucas didn't show up to art class either. During lunch I tried calling him, but it went straight to voicemail. Pacing back and forth, I started to worry myself.

What if he got kidnapped? Riles' he's too strong for that.

Okay, what if he got hit by a car? Farkle said he saw him by his locker, no cars there.

What if he left school and got hit by a car?

"Riley, stop bugging out. I'm sure he has an explanation as to why he isn't here right now." Maya stopped my train of thoughts.

"I hope so, I'm really worried." I frowned and started to eat my lunch.

I heard Maya's phone buzz and her gasp.

"What?!" I pondered curiously. She showed me her phone. It was a text from Josh.

'Guess who's going to pick you up after school today ?'

"Awe that's cute Maya. What time is he picking us up?"

"UH NO!" She screamed so loudly that everyone in the cafeteria turned around. I looked up at Maya, a little part of me was hurt, but mostly confused.

"I-I mean we're going on a date after school." She blushed.

"Oh okay, I'll just get a ride from my dad." I shrugged and resumed eating my food.

"Actually Riley, can I come over today?" Farkle asked me, though to be honest I forgot he was sitting with us.

"Yeah sure, but I don't think there's enough space for you and I to fit in my dad's car."

"Isn't it a five seater?" Farkle asked confused.

"Well he has a lot of stuff in the back seat, and his ego's kind of big too so..." I trailed off.

"Subway it is." Farkle and I said in unison.

Once the school day was over, Farkle met me at my locker and we made our way to the subway.

"Hey Riles, I missed talking to you." Farkle said to me. I realized that we haven't really had one of our deep talks in a while.

"I missed talking to you too." I hugged him, then we kept walking.

"So, you and Lucas.." He wiggled his eyebrows causing me to laugh.

"So you and Smackle.." I tried to imitate him but I failed miserably causing us both to break out into laughter.
