Rilaya Oneshots

Jealous

I huff in frustration as I watch Zay and Maya cuddle up together on the couch. What did they think they were doing? Maya was my best friend and girlfriend; that should be me on the couch with her!

"Riley, you okay?" Lucas asks me. I put on a fake smile, not taking my eyes off of Zay and Maya. "I'm fine Lucas."

Farkle and Lucas exchange a glance, not believing me for a second.

The five of us were at my apartment, watching The Notebook (Zay's choice). I glare at Zay, not paying attention to the movie. Farkle and Lucas continue to watch me glare daggers, not paying attention to the movie either. In fact, only Zay and Maya were, oblivious to what was going on.

"Riley, stop glaring at Zay." Farkle whispers to me. I shift my glaring eyes to him.

"Okay, okay. Go back to Zay, go back to Zay!" Farkle says again, cringing at my glare.

"Riley, seriously, what is wrong? This is so unlike you. Where's Smiley Riley?" Lucas asks. "Why are you glaring at Zay?"

I sigh. Maya and I hadn't told anyone that we were dating yet, as we were scared of everyone's reaction. I'm not my parents, I couldn't find the perfect guy for me and stay together for the rest of our lives. Lucas and I tried dating but it didn't end very well. We had both decided to just stay friends.

But, I did find my own match. My parents met each other very early and stayed together. Sounds just like Maya and I; I don't know how I didn't see it sooner. I smile when remembering our first kiss. It was just like my parents', Maya had pushed me onto a locker and gave me a quick peck on the lips.

Everyone says that Maya is my Shawn but that can be arguable. While Maya and Shawn do have similar qualities, Maya is more than just my best friend. She's my Topanga, my soulmate.

"Riley?" Lucas asks again, waving his hand in my face. I blink and bring myself out of my thoughts.

"What?"

"Why are you mad at Zay?" He asks again.

"I'm not mad at him." I try to deny it. Lately, Zay and Maya had been spending so much time together. They seemed to always go to the mall or the movies together. Maya even bailed on me one time to hang out with Zay.

"Don't even try." Farkle says. "You've been glaring at him ever since the movie started. Geez, it's like you're jealous..." Farkle trails off. "In fact, you and Maya have been acting weird lately. You never show that much affection in public anymore and you act like you used to with Lucas around her..." Farkle's eyes widen. Uh oh, he figured it out.

"You like M-" I quickly cover Farkle's mouth before he could say anything else.

"Wait a minute, what? Riley, you like M-" Using my other hand, I cover Lucas's mouth.

"Uh, so say hypothetically, I did like her. How would you guys feel about that?" I say nervously.

Farkle grabs my hand and uncovers his mouth. "I would support you. Riley, you and Maya are the two people that I love most on this planet, I want you guys to be happy."

I smile and turn to Lucas. "Lucas?"

"I'd support you guys as well." Lucas says. "I mean, you two already act like a couple, minus the kissing."

I beam at my two friends. What were we so afraid of? Lucas and Farkle already accept us. "Okay, so I'm gonna tell you guys something. Don't freak out."

The two of them nod, waiting for me to continue. "Maya and I are secretly dating. We just haven't told anyone yet because we were afraid of your reactions."

"You had nothing to be afraid of." Farkle says.

"Oh, so that's why you keep glaring at Zay. Yeah, the two of them are sitting really close together." Lucas says, making the three of us glance back at Zay and Maya.

I narrow my eyes when I see Maya put her head on Zay's shoulder. "Riley, she wouldn't cheat on you. Zay and Maya are just friends." Farkle reasons, glancing back at me. "Gah, your glare is back."

"She's been spending so much time with Zay though. She bailed on me several times just to hang out with him." I growl. "Well you know what? Two can play at this game. Lucas, put your arm around me." I command.

Lucas's eyes widen. "What? Riley, I'm not gonna help you make Maya jealous." He whispers.

"Please Lucas!" I beg him.

"No!" Lucas shouts, louder than he should have. Zay and Maya turn in their seats and look at the two of us. Lucas realizes his mistake and sends me an apologetic look.

"Riley, just tell Maya how you feel." Farkle says. "Or else I will."

I glare at Farkle. "Oh, don't pull that stunt again! You have no right to do that anymore, not after New Year's!"

Maya and Zay were watching the scene with wide eyes. "Riles?" Maya says. "Everything okay?"

"No!" I shout at her. "Everything is not okay! You're spending all of your time with Zay and not me; your own girlfriend!" I take a deep breath, trying to suppress my anger. "Maya, do you even love me?" I ask, the question ringing out.

Maya's eyes widen. "Honey, of course I do!"

Zay, Farkle, and Lucas were watching us with wide eyes. The only sound was the colorful noises coming from the TV.

"Well you don't act like it." I mutter, not bothering to watch Maya's reaction. I storm to my room, slamming the door behind me.

I scream in frustration and jump on my bed, slamming my head in the pillows. I hear a soft knock on the door and it swings open.

"Riles?" A soft voice says. I immediately know who it is.

"Go back to Zay." I mumble, not bothering to look up. I feel the bed move under me and I look up to find Maya sitting next to me, her eyes swirling with sadness and hurt.

"Riley, of course I love you. You're the reason I wake up every day." Maya says. I don't respond to her and we sit in silence for a couple minutes.

"Why are you spending all of your time with Zay then?" I mumble.

"Zay and Vanessa broke up and I've been cheering him up." Maya answers.

"Oh." I say, embarrassment starting to set in. I had made such a big deal over nothing. "I'm sorry Maya. Can we just forget that this has ever happened?"

"No." Maya says, crushing my spirits. "I don't want to forget. I wouldn't change any moment I spend with you." She says, making me smile. "Besides, jealousy is a good look on you."

"You know what an even better look on me is?" I say with a sly smile.

"What?"

"You." And with that, I connect our lips.
