Girl Meets True Love

Summary:

I like Maya, but I'm a major Lucas/Riley fan. I wasn't completely happy that the writers went in the direction of Maya/Lucas. If I could write it so Riley/Lucas are endgame, this is how I would do it. The first chapter takes place after 'Girl Meets Texas: Part 3' and follows after that.

Chapter Text

A/N: This is my first time writing a story on Girl Meets World. I'm a major Riley/Lucas fan and was bummed when it looked like the writers of GMW were going in the direction of Lucas/Maya. I like Maya and her friendship with Riley. If you are like me and you weren't totally satisfied with the way season two ended because Riley let Maya have Lucas despite Riley crushing on Lucas as well, please review and let me know.

Chapter 1

Farkle: "You need to tell him."

(Riley turns to face her friend weirdly. They were currently by their lockers)

Riley: "Tell 'who' what?"

Farkle: (rolls his eyes in annoyance) "You know who I'm talking about, Riley. I know how you truly feel about Lucas. You know how you truly feel about Lucas. You convinced Maya and Lucas you only care about Lucas like a brother. We both know that's not true."

(Riley shuts her locker door and faces her friend with a serious tone)

Riley: "I told the truth. I love Lucas like a brother. Maya likes him." (nods & smiles) "I'm sure he likes her, too."

Farkle: (serious expression) "Maya may like Lucas, but you know perfectly well who Lucas really likes, Riley."

Riley: (shakes her head) "I don't want to talk about it anymore. What's done is done. I made my move."

(Farkle walks to Riley until he's right in front of her)

Farkle: "You may have made a move, Riley, but it was the wrong one." (sighs sympathetically) "Riley, I know you mean well. You always mean well. I know you want Maya to be happy."

Riley: (nods) "I do."

Farkle: "Should it be at the expense of your happiness, though?" (nods) "Lucas and Maya deserve to know the truth."

Lucas: (confused) "The truth about what?"

Maya: (puzzled) "What's going on?"

(Riley and Farkle jump slightly at Lucas and Maya's presence. Riley and Farkle face their friends before looking at each other again. It was clear to Lucas and Maya that they interrupted something important. Lucas and Maya look between Riley and Farkle in expectancy. When it continues to remain silent, Lucas shrugs in frustration)

Lucas: "Will someone please tell me what's going on?"

(Riley gives Farkle a warning look not to say anything before showing her cheerful smile)

Riley: "Nothing is going on, Lucas." (to Maya) "Are you ready for class?"

(Maya wants to question Farkle and Riley further as she was totally confused. She decides to drop it for now)

Maya: (nods) "Yeah, let's go."

(Lucas and Farkle watch the girls enter the classroom. Lucas quickly faces Farkle and grows frustrated)

Lucas: "Okay, they're gone. What's going on? I know it has to do with Riley the way you two were looking at each other."

(Farkle sighs deeply as he tries to think about what to say)

Farkle: "It's not for me to tell."

(Lucas shakes his head as he raises his hands to his sides)

Lucas: "What's that supposed to mean?" (grows concerned) "Is something wrong with Riley, Farkle?"

Farkle: "You need to talk to Riley, Lucas. She asked me not to say anything."

Lucas: (exhales deeply) "Say anything about what?"

Farkle: (nods) "It's about you. That's all I will say. We got to get to class before we're late."

(Farkle walks past a puzzled Lucas. Lucas shakes his head as he goes to class as well)
