Broken (GMW Fanfic)

21

             The next morning Riley woke up and got dressed. She walked downstairs to a banner and her friends and family. They all yelled "Happy birthday Riley!" in unison and the banner read: "Happy Birthday Riley"

           She smiled "What? Why?" she stuttered out laughing. "Riles youre only sixteen once." Maya said. She grabbed Riley's hand and they went to school.

          When they walked in her locker was decorated. Riley smiled "You dont have to do all of this sixteen is just another number." Riley said smiling.

         Maya pulled Farkle and Zay aside "We need to get Riley and Lucas together." she said Zay nodded, Farkle hesitated but nodded.

         Maya grabbed Riley "Do you still like Lucas?" she asked "Eh a little?" Riley said Maya nodded and left. Zay grabbed Lucas "Do you still like Riley?" he asked "Yeah." Lucas said Zay nodded and left.

           Maya and Zay talked for a while. Zay told Lucas to ask Riley out. Riley was admiring her locker "Hey Riley." Lucas said leaning against the lockers beside her. "Hi Lucas." Riley said opening her locker to get her stuff. "Do you want to go to a movie or something?" he asked. Riley looked at him "Only us?" she asked he nodded.

        Riley hesitated. She hadn't dated anyone since Charlie. She had trust issues because of Charlie. He cheated on her five times to be exact, while she was in Philly.

       "Um," Riley said then the bell rang "Ill tell you after class." she said and went to class.

        Lucas explained everything to Zay, Maya, and Farkle. Maya gasped "Charlie." she said and sighed "We forgot her and Charlie just broke up." Maya said and leaned against the wall. "Why did they break up though?" Zay asked.

          Riley didnt tell them he cheated on her so no one knew. They all realized "Thats what happened to Riley." Lucas said "Thats what happened in Philly." Maya finished.

           They all went to class. After math Lucas caught up to Riley. "Hey about earlier its okay if you dont want to. I completely forgot about Charlie." he said.

           Riley flinched at his name.

         Charlie. Charlie is the one who cheated. Charlie is the one who verbally abused you. Charlie is an evil person. Not everyones like that. Youre worthless.

          "Thanks, Lucas, but i just dont think im ready right now." Riley said. Lucas nodded "I completely understand." he started to walk away when he turned back to Riley "So what happened between you two?" he asked.

         Riley hesitated to tell the truth "Oh we just didnt work out." she said and walked away quickly.

        Her first two classes went by. Lunch. She walked over to her usual table and sat with her friends. Again the topic went to Charlie.

        "He was a good guy. I liked him." Lucas said "Not that good of a guy." Riley mumbled everyone looked at her "What?" Lucas asked. Riley froze but then shook her head ."Nothing." she said and went to throw her food away.

       A/N

        I AM NOT A RUCAS SHIPPER. I just did that to get a lil drama.

         There may be a little Rucas but Riarkle is definately endgame.
