Farkle words kept on repeat on my head, Riley still loves Lucas. Is he serious?

I looked at Riley to make sure he was right. She was trying to be calm but she wanted to cry, I could see it in her eyes.

And I thought this Lucas thing would be in the past, she is so hurt. I don't have the courage to tell her the truth. I would lose her forever.

Also, how am I supposed to tell Huckleberry the truth? He will tell Riley, that's for sure.

It was just the three of us on the rooftop, everyone was gone. We sat on a bench there in silence.

What we'll be interesting is... who is with who at midnight. That's what I've heard all day. I was next to Riley on that bench until Lucas got in the middle. Is my life going to be like this forever?

After a while Lucas left, leaving me and Riley on our own. We just kept looking at the stars. I wish she would say anything.

Say anything, anything hurts less than quiet.

"Riley..." She cut me off.

"Shhh. Let's just not talk" She grabbed my hand and looked at me with her crystal eyes. She had so much pain.

That night all we did was stare at the stars, hoping they could give us the answers we needed.

I decided to skip school for three days, I haven't talked to anyone in tha time. I'm scared, I don't wanna face neither Riley or Lucas. But I have to, it's time.

I finally arrived school and I founded Farkle and Riley talking about me by the lockers. I hide behind them in order to listen to them.

"What do you mean you haven't called her yet?" Farkle said.

"I haven't. Give her this week if she doesn't come, I'll go for her" Riley said.

"You are just scared of what could happen" He said.

"No, I'm not. I just don't wanna lose her and if she likes Lucas..." He cut her off.

"What if she doesn't?"

"What do you mean?" Riley asked confused.

"She didn't respond as I spected when I said you still love Lucas" Farkle said.

Damn, he is into something.

"Are you saying she doesn't like Lucas? Come on, Farkle. It's obvious her crush" Riley answered.

You're so wrong honey.

"Well, yeah. I know she is obviously jelaous whenever she is around you two, I know she stepped back and I know that she is always looking..." He stopped for like a minute and then just said "Wow"

Damn, damn, damn. He definitely knows something, I wish it's not about my feelings for Riley.

"Wow... what?" Riley was really confused.

"Nothing. Just call Maya, ok?" He said as he left my girl even more confused by the locker.

After that, I left the school. I couldn't face this situation. And Farkle probably knows about my feelings for Riley, should I go and face him? 

Suddenly I heard someone knocking at my door.  I ignored it, I knew it was probably Farkle.

"Maya, open the door. We need to talk" Farkle said. 

I was right, ot was him.

"This isn't your business, go away" I screamed as he kept knocking my door.
