Maya's P.O.V
I wash the tears off of my face after the call to Lucas. The front door of the apartment opens and I hear my mom's footsteps as she walks to the kitchen.

"Maya! I'm gonna be out for some time today because I'm picking out a wedding dress."

I pat my face dry with a towel and walk out. "Wait what?" I feel so confused.

My mom scrubs the counter as she says " I'm gonna pick a wedding dress today. Remember?"

I get a sinking feeling in my stomach when she says that. I had forgotten that Shawn proposed to her. The wedding's in like a month. I don't know why she waited until last minute to choose a dress. Her and Shawn arranged everything else, and already chose the wedding rings, but then she hasn't chosen a dress? God. That's how my mom's always been.

My mom grabs her purse and says bye. She leaves. I feel so heartbroken. I can't believe I told Lucas I love him. I didn't actually mean it, did I? I go on Instagram on my phone to check out what everyone's up to. It's October and everyone's getting their pumpkins ready and stuff. I see Darby is still going strong with Yogi on her latest post. Missy is bragging about her 'best jack o' lantern ever'. Something that catches my eye is Riley's post.

So I guess she's made up with Farkle and now they're best friends? Ugh

So I guess she's made up with Farkle and now they're best friends? Ugh. She's with him right now probably so fuck my plans of inviting Riley over to hang out. I grab my laptop and throw myself onto the couch as I get ready for a marathon of Gossip Girl.
