Riley's POV:

I felt like crying. Shit. It was like I was being stabbed by her over and over again. Farkle shows up behind me.

"You ok?" He asks.

"I'm fine... You decided to come?"

"Yeah I was bored and didn't really have much to do."

"Times up!" Someone yells.

Maya ran out the door, Xander following her. Suddenly we heard a loud knock on the front door. Xander opened and a huge gang pushed their way in. They looked like they were seniors or something. They carried ziplock bags with various things in them. One of them brought small bottles of beer. Once they all came in, I noticed a guy in the back holding a gun. I had to get my friends outta here. I panicked.

I grabbed my cell phone to call the police. As soon as I dialed the first number, I felt something hard against my back.

"Who you callin'?" A deep voice asked. It was one of the seniors. I couldn't speak. "Cause, if you callin' the cops, I'll get yer ass killed before they get here." He moved the gun from my back to my forehead. I shook uncontrollably, I wasn't even able to speak.

Maya suddenly came out of nowhere and smashed a beer bottle against the senior.

"Leave her alone, dickhead!" She yelled. He lowered the gun from my head, and instead pointed it at Maya.
"You think I'm scared? I bet that stupid thing isn't even loaded!" Maya laughed.

The senior then shot a glass window.

"I'm pretty sure it's fully loaded, and I've got enough to kill both you, and your silly little friend."

"Life is just full of surprises, huh? I don't think you'd like to spend your valuable bullets on me and my friend." Maya laughed nervously. We then saw some other kid dialing for the police.

"Excuse me for a second." The senior said as he walked towards the kid. Maya then grabbed Farkle, Lucas, and I's hands and we ran out of the building.

"Farkle, Lucas, walk each other home. I'll do the same with Riley. If anything happens, just call the police." Maya tried remaining calm as possible. She grabbed my hand and ran off.

Maya's POV:

I was toast. I know Riley saw me making out with Xander. He grabbed my face and kissed me, but for some reason, I kept going.

We were at Riley's apartment now. Her parents freaked out and checked us everywhere. They were relieved when they found nothing.

Riley and I laid in bed. She turned her back against me and sobbed.
