Saturday...

Lucas' POV;

I wrapped my arms around her small frame and kissed her cheek. "You look so beautiful in my clothes." Maya giggled as she put her tangled blonde hair in a bun.

She turned around and I pressed my bare chest against her body. "I had tons of fun with you last night and today"

"I told you it'd be a good time." I smirked and captured her lips in a gentle kiss.

Maya pulled away and blushed. "So what's tonight's game plan?"

"Well," I chuckled. "It's game night at the Riley's place."

Her smile faded as she looked down at her feet, "Which means Josh will be there."

Not many people know Maya. They see her as this badass, party girl. She tries to come off as fearless, but it's not until you get her alone that you'll understand just how scared she is.

"You can't let him get away with hurting you. I won't let that bastard get away with it."

"You know this is going to go public right?" She sighed in frustration, "I can hear Missy now. She's going to have a field day with this one."

I lifted Maya's chin, forcing her to look at me. "Don't worry about Missy or anyone else. This isn't about them. You're all that matters, Hart."

While the girls were upstairs, Zay, Farkle and I were left in charge of choosing the game. "Let's see. We've got Monopoly, Clue, Sorry, Trouble, and the Game of Life." Farkle read the boxes on the shelf.

"We've already played all of those dude." Zay complained. "Can we please invest in some new options?"

I laughed and leaned against the wall. "I'm with Zay on this one. Besides, I'm sure you're both tired of losing every time." I'm a board game master. The only person that beats me every time is Mrs. Matthews.

"I've got Cards Against Humanity..." Farkle pulled the box out of his bag and set it on the table.

"No," Topanga's voice came from across the room. "That game is way too inappropriate for Auggie and Ava."

We all groaned. I love the kids, but we can never do anything fun when they're around. "Taboo?"

Topanga smiled at me as she placed 3 bowls of chips on the table. "Good idea, Lucas."

"Mom, did you just say that Lucas had a good idea?" Riley joked as she walked down stairs with Maya and Smackle. "First time for everything."

I laughed and threw one of the throw pillows at her. "Fight me, Matthews." Riley and Maya sat on each side of me.

The adults looked over at us in confusion. "So Lucas, which one are you dating exactly?" Cory questioned me. "Because you told me one thing and the rest of the school said something different."

"Mr. Matthews it's a really long story."

"My daughter has a hickey. It can't be that long of a story." Everyone but Riley laughed at Shawn's comment, and Maya's face turned red with embarrassment. 

The door swung open, revealing Josh with soda in hand. "Now, I know you guys weren't going to start without me." He laughed.

I rolled my eyes and looked at Riley, who was avoiding eye-contact with Josh.

Maya' POV;

Josh sat on the other side of me and smirked. "Hey babe. Haven't talked to you in while."
