forever ➸ sequel to endless➸gmw group chat

➸eight

A/N: I'm back. I think my goal at this point is just to upload every month. It gives me enough time to work on a decent chapter for you all :)

I know you all are past patiently waiting (I hope someone out there gets this reference)

before you start: I'm sorry, angst had to come eventually.

[tw: drunk driving]

Riley's POV

After about 30 minutes of twisting Oreos, eating the plain cookie and then sticking the creme covered part to Isadora's car I finally got a chance to look at my phone.

6 missed call from farklethegreat

1 missed chats from farklethegreat

3 missed chats from flatbutt

Oh shit, I thought. 

[1:18 am]

farklethegreat: riles where tf are you?

farklethegreat: I'm stuck with Isadora and its awkward asf

farklethegreat: RILEY

farklethegreat: I'll just call you

farklethegreat: you still didn't answer

farklethegreat: I'm really sorry, she kissed me.

I rolled my eyes and went to see the messages I had missed from Zay.

[1:25 am]

flatbutt: GET YOUR PREGNANT ASS BACK OVER HEREEE

flatbutt: we're stuck with this fake ass hoe

flatbutt: AND WHERE IS MAYA?

"Maya! , Zay and Farkle are looking for us, I said." I was longing to go home, it was cold and I was exhausted.

"Sure," Maya replied as she put the last cookie on top of the hood of the luxurious car.

We headed back to my apartment, the crisp air masking us as we strolled by the tall buildings of New York.

"What do you think Isadora's reaction will be like?," I asked curiously. I secretly hoped Isadora wasn't too enraged. Isadora wasn't the calmest with things like this remembering how in 9th grade she had got suspended for threatening to kill someone for filling her locker with embarrassing notes she had written to her crush and heart notes that she had given to them over several notes.

"I'm not really sure I care what the bitch thinks anymore," Maya retorted.

"Good point, I suppose," I replied.

I continued to walk on the edge of the paved sidewalk, the occasional car swerving left or right probably coming from a bar or nightclub. 

I think I heard Maya say something else but I saw a car coming and I scrambled to move but all I could see were lights and hear Maya's high-pitched frantic screams.

And then everything went black. 

Maya's POV

The walk back from the parking garage was slow. The chill air slowed us down.

Riley talked about her pregnancy while maneuvering from the top of the sidewalk to the busy Saturday night New York city street.

I watched cars dangerously maneuver and rolled my eyes. You would think people would care enough about safety to be a responsible adult and call a ride while drinking.

I remember my Mom's friend who died from a  from a drunk driver.

"These drivers are so stupid," I muttered under my breath.

I was so lost in my own thoughts to look over at Riley until she didn't react to my statement.

Riley was on the hard concrete, her face pale, and blood scattered everywhere.

I screamed.

A/N: Do you like the new covers? Let me know.

I don't think I really wrote this well but I don't know.

Also, I'm sorry for the angst but I had too! 

There will be fluff and *maybe* slight smut by the end.

Speaking of the end, this will end between 15 and 20 chapters

AND

I'm going to begin editing endless in a few weeks. 

I'm beyond tired - 6 hours of sleep in 2 days tired. (so apologies for mistakes, mon amies)

bonne nuit ☾
