"I figured I should just go for it, just go for what I want. I didn't mind that he was with Riley, I just I wanted something for me, you know?"
I thought about everything that's been going on. From Lucas cheating on Riley, to Smackle being pregnant, and my situation with Farkle. I realized that if there's anything Smackle has shown me is to go for what I want. There's truth behind those words, after all look how messed up our family has become and what's the point if we can't have what we want in life?
And what did I want ?
I wanted Farkle, not Josh. I want a happy home for my daughter, even if it meant defying my mother. I wanted to be there for my best friend and for Smackle, even when one did harm to the other. Most importantly, I wanted to be happy.
Arguing with Farkle only delayed my shot at being happy with him and being together...

We were sorta fighting again and now I couldn't sleep. My emotions were getting the best of me and I couldn't even shut my eyes without thinking about how I stood there and said nothing. It felt like I was kicking her out all over again. Why couldn't I just have told her she could trust me because I truly love her and didn't want to hurt her ? Like that's hard to say, yet I couldn't because I didn't want to mess our relationship up. And I ended up doing it anyway.
I got up and out of bed determined to do something I needed to do and if it went bad well who cares? I messed up already.
"Maya." I stop in my tracks to see her coming my way. Was she heading back to our room?
"I was just um..going to the...yeah, I'm not even going to bullshit it I was going to see you. Listen, as messed up as Smackle is, she said something that got to me. She said before she slept with Lucas she figured she'd go for what she wanted, so she just did. I guess we have went for each other many times, even after our fights or people getting in between. I want you, Farkle. I don't want to be angry with you and waste our time together. So hurry this up and just take me...take me to your bed." She spoke clearly. The girl has balls.
"Me too, actually. Well I mean, I was coming to you.." I began. "I'm sorry about not saying anything. I just panicked and didn't want to say something stupid, which ended up bad because I made you angry. I'm just...please trust me. You know how much I care about you, I've been doing that since the first grade. I'm not here to hurt you again, I'm here to be with you and our daughter. To share a home together...I don't want nothing to break us apart again. I don't want to be in this home without you, I don't want to be without our daughter, and I certainly don't want to lose you. Being away from you the past week then the last two days were hell for me. I felt so stupid for letting you leave and for not doing anything to get you back right away. I'm just—I'm sorry, May. I really am." I spoke honestly. I looked into her blue eyes as I waited for an answer. She smiled a bit after some time and I sighed in relief knowing I had said something right. "So, um? Let's go to our bed then...?"
