I'll Be Back ~ Riley+Farkle

Awakening

{a/n: welcome back guys! I'm so excited to finish off the ending for this book! If I were you I'd read the last 4 chapters just to refresh your memory, just incase this chapter confuses you and since I've had a writer's block for quite some time. And I'd like to add that I'm posting 4 chapters in one go, but I have not finished the ending, so there is more to come! Enjoy suckers!}

Farkle

My eyes slowly open as I see Maya, Zay, Smackle and Riley all looking towards me.

"Riley?" I whisper as I saw her face go from sadness to happiness.

"Farkle!" She said, wrapping her arms around me, I did the same. "I was so worried about you. I'm so sorry I left you that day, Charlie is an evil man." She said quickly as she smashed her lips against mine. She pulled away after what seemed like 3 years. "I love you."

"I love you too." I say back as she steps away and Maya and Zay hug me.

"We missed you buddy." Zay said, wiping a tear from his face.

"We really did." Maya said as I caught her and Zay holding hands. I pointed at them. "Yeah it happened."

"We have been together since January 16th." Zay said as Maya laid her head on his shoudler, staring at me, I smiled. I looked behind Zay to see Smackle holding a baby.

"Smackle, you had your baby?" I said as she stood up and walked over and sat on the chair next to me.

"Yeah, her name is Isabella, she was born on February 6th." She said. "Want a hold?"

"Sure." I said as I held Isabella, and she immediately started crying. I gave Isabella back and everyone started to laugh.

"Looks like Isabella finally dislikes someone." Maya said as we all laughed.

"Where's Lucas?" I said as everyone went silent. Smackle put her head down as she was rocking Isabella back and forth.

"We don't know." Maya said as I sat upright.

"Guys what has happened now?" I asked as everyone looked at Smackle.

"He broke up with me." Smackle said, as she looked at me. "He said he couldn't handle the pressure of us being together with a baby."

"He is still in the group though." Maya said.

"But whenever Smackle is with us, he doesn't want to hang out." Zay said.

"Like today we asked him to come see you and he always asks who comes, and when we say Smackle, he says he's busy." Riley said as I nodded.

"It's like he's trying to avoid you." I said as Smackle looked at me sternly.

"No shot Sherlock." Smackle said as I chuckled a bit.

After that, we all catched up on everything going on at school. Maya and Zay then left around 3pm, Smackle and Isabella left shortly after, leaving me and Riley.

{a/n: get ready for Say It Back foreshadowing moment}

"So..." Riley said.

"So."

"We should talk." She said I remembered having this exact conversation with her when I told her I first liked her.

"Yeah..." I replied.

"God I'm nervous." She whispered to herself as I think to myself; She's foreshadowing...

"What?" I said smiling as I knew what was happening.

"Nothing...I...Er-"

"Did you say you're nervous?" I asked as she smiled, I think she knows that I know. "How can you get nervous around me? We've been friends for... as long as I can remember." I knew what I wanted to say there and then. "I want us back together."

"You ruined it..." She whispered as she looked at me in the eyes. "I would love to get back with you."

"Together?" I said as I put my hand on her left hand. She placed her other hand on top, as I did the same.

"Together. Forever." She said as we exchanged a passionate kiss.

I hope things will be different.

A good different.
