Taken

What Did You Think I Was Going to say?

The girls are the last ones to arrive at Farkles. Zay and Lucas are playing pool. Farkle and Smackle are making snacks.
Farkle - Finally. I was starting to think that you two weren't going to show.
Maya - How could we miss drawing on Lucas's face when he's the first one to fall asleep?
Lucas - Hey! You better not use sharpie. It took days for it to come off last time.
Maya - Well if you don't want to be drawn on then don't be the first to fall asleep huckleberry
Zay - Alright you two, let's get the fire starting. It's my favorite part about winter.
Lucas - Come on I'll help you.
Riley - So what do we have planned for tonight?
Smackle - Well we were thinking making s'mores maybe sing some songs, Lucas brought his guitar.
Maya - Ranger rick brought his guitar? This is going to be fun
Maya heads outside with Zay and Lucas. Riley stays in with Smarckle.
Farkle - Once it starts getting kinda of late we can also watch some movies. Is that okay Riley?
Riley - what? Yeah that's sounds great.
Smarkle has a worried look on their faces. With Riley, they know not to push her to say something. So they let her be.
Lucas - Alright y'all, let's get this camp fire started.
They all head outside. Outdoor Couches are surrounding the bonfire pit, the comfortable kind. The ones where you can lay and relax. Riley and Zay are sitting together, Lucas and Maya, and Smackle and Farkle. Lucas is playing some songs on his guitar while Maya plays around with lyrics. The perfect couple.
Zay - Riley, you've been at Farkles more than I have. Show me where he keeps the ice cream?
Riley - Well Zay, ice cream is usually in the...
She gets cut off
Zay - Just show me.
They head inside Farkles house, Zay is looking at Riley in the kitchen. Riley knows what he is going to ask her, although she knows, she still dreads it
Riley - Look, I know what this is about so...
Zay interrupts her
Zay - So when are you going to tell us that your parents split up and she dating that new employee at the bakery?
Riley was in complete shock. She thought he was going to ask her about her feelings towards Lucas, but she was wrong. So wrong
Riley - How. How did you know that? Who. Who told you?
Zay - you did.
Zay - You know, if you want to keep your personal life a secret, I suggest you keep your fathers classroom door locked so no one in the hallway can hear what your saying.
Riley - Please don't tell anyone.
Zay - Why don't you want anyone to know? We can help you Riley.
Riley - No Zay, I just. I'm not ready for people to start finding out okay. I'm just not ready.
Zay - This is a big secret Riley. If you don't tell them soon, they are going to feel betrayed and confused that you couldn't trust them with something as big as this.
Riley - Look. I already get enough of this from Maya, I don't need this coming from you too.
Zay - Don't you think if people keep bringing it up, it's a sign that you should tell your friends. Your best friends.
Riley - I'm just not ready Zay. Please just keep this between the three of us. I just need some time to process my parents splitting. Just give me time to process it all. Please don't say anything to anyone.
Zay - I'm not saying anything to anyone because I want you to tell them. But I promise I won't say anything until your ready.
Riley - Thank you.
Zay - wait, What did you think I was going to ask you?
Riley - What?
Zay - Earlier when I first pulled you in, you said "I know what you're going to say" and when I told you, you were shocked that that came out. What did you think I was going to say?
Riley - I. I thought you..
Zay - You thought I was going to ask you about your feelings about Lucas huh? Well now that you brought it up. Why don't you just tell him how you feel?
Riley - How and why do you know everything about me?
Zay - I hate to break it to you sugar, but you're not that good at hiding how you feel.
Riley - Life sucks right now.
Zay - Ain't that the truth
They head back outside with the rest of the gang. They laugh, sing, eat, reminisce for hours.
