Riarkle no more

"Alright Farkle help is on the way" Lucas said as he slowly walked out to the sidewalk. "Maya's coming?" He said hopefully. Lucas threw his hands up. "Apparently Maya went to my house, no one can reach her. Anyway, Riley's coming she has a key to the house." He watched as Farkle's face fell. He slowly started to sink down until he was Laing on the ground, snow falling all over his back. "Farkle get up out of the road, you're gonna get run over. "Good" Farkle mumbled. Lucas sighed "do you wanna tell me what happened?" No response. He sighed again "okay. Well she should be here soon."

Riley got in her car and turned on the accelerator. It came to life, a little slow and unwillingly. Once She pulled out of the drive way she started thinking.
Flashback

Riley skipped into the art studio Farkle had been taking a class at for a few weeks. "Hey babe you ready for lunch?" She said skipping in. Farkle whipped around and paled. He started shuffling some papers around. "Umm yeah babe could you like...uh- wait outside?" He stuttered out. Riley frowned and walked towards him. "What are these?" She moved a few of the papers he was fumbling with and she tilted her head. "Farkle, what is this?" She moved a few more around and under almost 20 paintings were beautiful, time consuming, sketches of the same girl, that was not her, smiling a beautiful smile. "Now- now Riley it's not what it looks like." He warned standing up to match her height. "Farkle are you ready?" A sweet girly voice called from the other room. Riley's eyes widened and he nostrils flared. "Who was that?" Farkle held his hands out. "Riley please...please just sit down." He said in a warningly tone. He started to move all the sketches back into one pile as riley started running for the back room of the art studio. Farkle whipped around "Riley- no!" She pushed through the door. "Are you ready now, Farkle, I don't have much time." In the room was a girl, Riley could only see the back of her head as she was sitting in a a roll chair turned away. "Farkle?" At once she turned. Her expression changed once instead of Farkle, she saw a teary Riley. Riley immediately recognized her from the drawings, but the worst part, all she was wearing, was a robe. At the moment Farkle crashed through the door. He stood starring at Riley who was starring at the girl who was starting r the floor. "Who the hell is this?" Riley turned to him. "Riley it's not what it-" Riley rolled her eyes and picked up her wallet that had fallen on the floor. "You know what? Just stop I don't want to hear it." She pushed through the doors and started running out of the art studio, wanting to get out of there as fast as she could. "Riley wait!" She heard Farkle call as she slammed the door to her car and drove off.

She turned down Maya's road, the ice nearly knocking her off. She approached the car and saw Lucas standing on the sidewalk. But there was something else....riley squinted to get a better look at the blob laying in the road. She frowned and lowered her eyes, Farkle. She sped up closer to them and kept her gaze on him. It wasn't until she was maybe 10 feet away that she slammed in the brakes. She hopped out of the car "your savior is here" she said doing a little curtsy. Farkle stood up and hunched over as they both followed Riley down to the front door. "Farkle, go into the bathroom and get a towel, you're soaking wet. He nodded and walked off. "So you wanna make some cookies?" Riley said raiding the cabinets. "Riley what the hell was that?" He said gesturing out the door "you nearly killed him!" Riley shrugged "would that really have been the worst thing in the world?" Lucas sighed "okay cookies."

As Riley grabbed a mixing bowl, Lucas urged her to talk. "So, you guys broke up. What did he do?" Riley furrowed her eyebrows "what makes you think he did something?" Lucas sighed "well there was that thing where you almost ran him over" he said sarcastically. Riley sighed "I don't wanna talk about us." She said quickly, then she smile "what about you and Maya huh?" Lucas blushed. "Well that's something I would like to talk about." A voice said from down the hall. Riley and Lucas whipped their heads around. Riley's jaw dropped "oh my god Maya?" Lucas dropped the stick of butter he retrieved from the fridge. "You left the door opened, that's why you didn't hear me come in." She said weakly. She shivered and Lucas jogged towards her. He wrapped her in a hug "you're freezing." She smiled "yeah, it's p-pretty cold out there." Lucas swayed her in his arms "look, Maya, I am so sorry." She cut him off "stop, really it's okay. I love you." He pulled her away so he could see her "I love you too." She smiled and started walking towards Riley "so cookies. Can I help?" Riley bit her lip. "Actually I have a different job for you."

Maya walked down the hallway and knocked on the bathroom door. "Hey Farkle it's Maya!" She called through the door. No response~. She jiggled the door knob "Farkle I just want to talk to you. Unlock the door." She looked over at Lucas and Riley helplessly, they both shared the same look. Maya was about to walk back when she heard a tiny, click! She opened the door slightly. "Hey it's Maya." She said quietly.she walked in and Farkle was sitting on the edge of the bathtub. His eyes were red like he had been crying and he was soaking wet. Maya grabbed a towel out of her little closet and wrapped it around him. Then, she jumped up on the counter. "Riley told me what happened, Farkle." He sighed and shook his head. "The whole time he was telling the story I just kept thinking this isn't right, there's definitely something we don't know." Farkle started to look up a little bit. "And now," she continued "I'm really interested to know your version." He sighed "you guys have got it all wrong" he mumbled. "Then why did you have all those pictures of that bitch?" He looked up. "that bitch is my instructor. It's been me and my fellow artists assignment to draw her for weeks. Until she says we've improved enough." Maya nodded her head "fine, but why were you alone with her and why the hell was she wearing a robe?" Farkle sighed and bit his lip. "Okay, today was nude painting week." Maya lowered her eyes and opened her mouth just a smidge. "During nude painting week we all go separately, every student comes a different day!" Maya shook her head "and you weren't even gonna talk to Riley about painting another girl naked first?" "Yes I was!" Farkle stood up "today wasn't my day, Thursday is, I was gonna talk to her tonight!" "If today wasn't your day Then why we're you at the studio today?" Farkle sat back down "I came in I ask her if I was improving enough, and if she would take a look at my work so far." "Oh god" she mumbled "yeah" he agreed.After a few seconds of silence Maya bit her lip, totally unsure of what to say.
