Maya's pov

"Ok, Maya what's going on?" Riley asks as we sit in the bay window.

"I thought we were going to talk about you?" I point at her.

"Come on Maya, you've known me for how long?" she's right I knew we're here to talk about me but I didn't want to. It's not that I don't trust her, I mean she knows I like him. I'm just not the type of person who talks about my feelings. "Maya," she sensitivity asked looking down at me while I had my head faced down.

"What?"

"We have to talk about what's going on."

"Riley," I pleaded.

"Maya come on, you can trust me," she gave me her puppy eyes.

"Fine. I tell you and you can't tell anyone or I have to kill you."

She chuckled, "I promise," she said crossing her heart.

"I kissed Farkle. Or Farkle kissed me," I shook my head.

"Oh my gosh Maya! This is so great, isn't it! I mean you two are perfect for each other!" She rushed.

"It's not that simple Riley," I said softly.

"What do you mean?" She calms down.

"He got all awkward after and said it was a 'problem'" I made air quotes. "That was the reason why we were late."

"Huh? This isn't Farkle," she says and she's right. "Maybe you need to talk to him."

"No Riley. I can't."

"Maya come on."

"Stop saying that! Come on Maya! Come on Riley!" I shout turning away.

"Maya," she grabs my shoulder turning me back around.

"I'm just not good with feelings."

"I know," she says pulling me close. I rest my head on her shoulder. No matter who Riley and I come across we will alway be there for each other.

The Next Day

I decided I probably should go and talk to Farkle. I knocked on the door to his room. "Who is it?" He asks.

"Maya!" I shout back, shifting forward and backward.

"Oh, I'll be there in a moment," he says back. I hear him walking over to the door. He opens it and he's standing there shirtless, I've seen him without a shirt before but somehow this was different. You'd think he wouldn't be in shape for being a dorky nerd but he has a six pack like you've never seen. "Uh, Maya?" I look up at him quickly, I felt my cheeks heat up from the embarrassment, he knew I was looking at his body. "What is it?"

"I think we need to talk about yesterday." I was expecting him to answer quicker or at least let me in but he didn't. We were just standing there, outside his room with his shirt laying on his bed.

"Uh yeah, sorry about that," he finally answers, scratching the back of his head. "I probably crossed the line. I'm sorry." I tried to tell him that he didn't need to apologize but he continued without letting me say anything. "We should probably forget about it." What?

I feel so embarrassed, I think I might cry. "Uh yeah, we should," I try to say quickly.

"Well I'll see you at school on monday," he says closing the door. I hear it shut. I don't move. I just stand there in shock. Farkle Minkus kissed me and then wanted to forget about it. I boiled up in anger. I got out my phone and started to dial.

"Riley!"

"Hey Maya how'd it go? Did you talk to Farkle?"

"Oh yeah. I talked to Farkle," I said aggressively.

"And?" I could here the concern in her voice.

"He said and I quote 'we should probably forget about it.'"

"Oh honey, I'm so sorry"

"I knew I should have never put my feelings out there." I was now on the subway.

"Don't give up Maya, there has to be someone out there for you." She says sympathetically.

"Maybe," I say sadly. "I have to go." I hang up quickly, I knew I was going to cry. Right there on the subway. I didn't know why. I'm Maya Hart nothing can break me. I'm angry and then I'm sad but what am I really mad at, him or myself for liking him? I didn't know either way I was crying on the subway, sitting next to this disgusting old guy that probably hadn't showered in a week.
