Girl meets Riley and Maya (Rilaya)

ch 5

(Takes place Right after Girl meets Triangle)

"So where are we going?" Maya asked the tall brunette glancing at her curiously. "To find you," Riley replied taking Maya by the hand and running out with her.

In the meantime, Maya had to think. The words he spoke earlier rang in her ears.

"Nothing's going to happen Until those two are honest with each other," Farkle stated his gaze lingering on Maya. And she had a feeling he suspected something else was happening.

Which was the last thing she wanted.

Maya sighed glancing up to see Riley looking at her curiously.

She's the secret I can never tell.

Meanwhile, Farkle was having suspicions. He had a feeling that this triangle was something else. For awhile he had figured that Maya liked Lucas. But something else seemed to be happening. He had a feeling ever since when they got their yearbooks. That maybe, Maya didn't like Lucas.

He never really tried to think about that. But that was the only hint he had found as evidence that Maya didn't like Lucas. He had plenty that she did. And usually in science that argument would win. But he needed more opinions. Opinions from nonsciency people, or maybe girls. Or maybe girls with not a lot of boy experience. Smackle. She would know.

Text conversation:

Hey, Smackle. I need your opinion on something.

Oh yes, my genius husband? What may require my assistance that Farkle himself could not answer?

How do you know if a girl likes a guy?

I am sorry, oh dearest, but love is not something I understand fully. My expertise isn't in that subject.

Well is there anyone else you think would know about that stuff?

The answer lies in who you're asking about.

Maya and Lucas.

Who wouldn't like one piece of hunk like Friar?

Smackle!

I am joking, oh Farkle. Hmm. That does sound like a tough equation, for I do not know well enough the signs. Perhaps you should ask one like Marley Evans, or Zay? Or those giant high schoolers we saw.

Genius idea Smackle.

Farkle looked up from his phone. He didn't even have Marley's number. But he did have Zays. Although he knew that Zay already thought Maya liked Lucas or whatnot.

Oh well, if he failed th- what was he talking about? He never failed in anything but sports and this certainly wasn't sports. So surely he could do it.

Text conversation:

Farkle
Zay

Hey, Zay, I got a question for you

What's up?

How for sure do you know a girl likes a guy.

??Farkle you're dating Smackle. Don't think you need to cheat on her. If I had a girlfriend I would serenade her every night. And love her more than the stars that shine in the sky.

I'm just gonna ignore that last part.

What? Can a guy not dream?

I'm talking about Lucas and Maya, Zay.

Of course, Maya likes him, have you seen them when they're together?

Marley Evans was added to this conversation.

I'm pretty sure if she liked him, they wouldn't be constantly at each other's throats.

Hey, Marley, nice of you to join.

It's unresolved sexual tension, duh that's usually what happens. Guys tease girls when they like them.

Yeah, but do girls do the same as guys when they like them?

Depends on who it is. Usually no, but Maya seems to be the type that would.

But she wouldn't. According to Riley Maya gets all sappy when she gets around Josh, Riley's uncle.

Whatever, this is too complicated. And I barely know you guys. I have to go and study for Matthews stupid exam.

Marley Evans has left this conversation.

I'm with Marley on this one. Peace out.

Zay Babineau has left the conversation.

Farkle sighed putting his phone in his pocket. This really was getting to complicated.
