A Certain Kind of Love
A Joshaya Fanfic
Story by: hoffkk
Summary: Maya is full of emotions and mixed feelings on the day of her college graduation and does something no one, not even Josh, saw coming.
Note: Just a little something for all my joshaya supporters out there. I was feeling inspire by Valentine’s Day and one of fav corpanga moments. I hope you like what I came up with! xo.
*******
"Hey, you." Josh greeted with a smile. Somewhere between all the congratulations and the picture taking, he had lost track of his girlfriend, but now, here she was, sitting in the in the same light brown auditorium chair she had been in just a half hour ago, waiting for her name to be called.
"Hey." Maya beamed back as he took a seat next to her, yellow tassel jiggling as she turned to face him.
"I was wondering where you went off to." Josh told her as he took in her appearance. He loved the way the royal blue of her cap and gown brought out the blue in her beautiful, sparkling eyes. However, at the moment, they seemed to sparkle with a certain sadness behind them. She wasn't crying or anything like that. Josh could just read her well enough by now to know that something was off. "Is everything okay?" He queried, brushing a lock of hair behind her ear, delicately stroking her cheek as he did so.
"Yeah, I just... needed another moment." Maya explained. "I know this might sound strange, but I'm really gonna miss this place."
"That's not strange at all." He replied. "Most people do miss their college years... the parties, the friendships, the football games..."
"It's not just the fun stuff though." She interrupted. "I mean, I am actually going to miss going to classes. I know that sounds kind of pathetic, but... with as crazy as my home life has been over the years, school has been the one big constant in my life. It's always been there for me through the good and the bad, and now... it's over." Maya had had a hard time growing up, dealing with her dad leaving and mom working all the time, then with her mom remarrying Riley's surrogate uncle, Shawn Hunter, and having a new baby. It was a lot of change. Through it all, though, school had been her safe place where she could get away and be at peace. However, after today, she wasn't going to have that anymore, and that realization scared her more than she had anticipated it would.
"Hey." Josh said, tone light but serious. "It's going to be all right. I mean, I know school is over, but you'll always have your friends."
"For now." She shrugged. "I mean, I know I'll always have Riles in my life no matter what, and Ranger Rick by association, but in a few months they'll be moving to Texas for Lucas's vet school. Then, Farkle and Smackle will be a state away, saving the world with science, and Zay is already overseas with the army..." She trailed.
"I get it." Josh said, placing a hand on her knee and rubbing small soothing circles with his thumb. "It's a lot of change. It 's overwhelming."
Maya gave him half a smile. He was always good at reading her mind and listening to her problems. She was so lucky to have Josh in her life.
"Terrifyingly so." She admitted, toying nervously with the silky material of her robe.. "I just feel like everything that I used to hold close is now suddenly out of reach. I mean, I'm being thrust into the world as a full adult human being, and I have nothing to hold onto anymore to keep me steady."
"You have me." Josh promised, giving her knee a squeeze. "I'll do whatever it takes to keep you steady."
"You promise?" Maya asked, suddenly feeling very hopeful.
"I promise." He spoke seriously. "Whatever you need me to do, I'm there."
There was a long pause, then, feeling bold, she spoke up again, "Josh?"
"Yeah?" He retorted quizzically, completely unprepared for the words that came next.
Placing a hand over his that still lay on her knee, Maya said, "Marry me."
*******
Josh smirked as a soft chuckle rumbled through his chest, but as Maya continued to stare doe eyed at him, he realized she was serious and all the humor vanished. "Maya..." He began, but was quickly cut off.
"I know this may seem impulsive, but it's really not. We've been dating for four years now." She explained.
"Maya..." He tried again to no avail.
"A we both know I've loved you since I was twelve." She continued.
"May..." Josh attempted once more.
"And I'm not just saying this because I'm scared or overwhelmed, even though I am. I'm saying this because, at the end of the day, I know that I can handle the uncertainty of life and everything it throws at me... as long as I have you to live it with me." Maya smiled sweetly, squeezing his hand.
There was a lull in the one-sided conversation until she added, "Well... are you gonna say something?"
Josh chuckled once more and shook his head, "You, Maya Penelope Hunter, are impossible. You always have to be first."
"What?" She questioned with a quirk of her brow.
"You were the first to make a move, you initiated our first kiss, you were the first to say I love you, and now... you even beat me to proposing." He smirked as he took a small, velvet box out of his jacket pocket. "You know I've been carrying this around with me all week, waiting for the perfect moment... but it looks like I waited too long."
"Josh, I--" She started as she shifted from doe-eyed to the full on deer in the headlights look, but this time it was his turn to cut her off.
"Nope. It's my turn now." He interjected, taking full control of the conversation. "Maya, you've always been so strong. You're never afraid to do what needs to be done, to make the bold move. You always know what you want and go for it. You're also kind-hearted, smart, artistic, and inspiring. You say you need me in your life, Maya, well, I need you in mine more. So, yes, I will marry you..." Josh trailed off as he managed to get down on one knee in-between the two rows of seats and open the velvet box. "but only if you will marry me.
A tear of happiness slid down her cheek as she nodded excitedly, "Yes, Joshua Matthews. I will marry you too."
They both beamed at each other as he slipped the ring on her finger. Maya barely took the time to look at it before wrapping her arms around her fiancé and kissing him passionately. Truth be told, she couldn't care less about having a ring. As long as she had Josh, she was happy. Truly and completely happy.
Eventually, the two of them managed to pull apart, and Josh said, "We should probably head back to the family, they are probably wondering where we are."
"Yeah, okay." She sighed happily. "Let's go give them the good news."
Taking her newly bejeweled hand, Josh led the way down the left aisle of the auditorium and to the door.
"Wait, I forgot my purse." Maya said suddenly. "I'll meet you outside."
Giving her hand an extra squeeze before letting go, he headed out to the quad.
Maya returned down the aisle and grabbed her yellow cross body bag, then followed after her fiancé, However, she couldn't help pausing one last time at the auditorium door and giving the room a little wave goodbye.
As her new diamond ring caught the light, her last few feelings of melancholy and doubt dissipated. She realized in that moment that even though life was full of surprises and uncertainty, she had a certain kind of love that would get her though it and make moving on not so scary, but exciting. Yes, life for Maya was about to become a lot more exciting, and suddenly she couldn't wait to see what would happen next.

Seven Days
Summary: The Clique's Six annual reunion is coming up and so are a lot of secrets and changes. Can one week bring friends closer together, or further apart? Find out in Seven Days, based on the Mary J Blige song. Rucas Centric. Joshaya; Smarkle;
Word Count: 2,190
Chapter 1: A Friend of Mine
MONDAY
She tossed the thin dark purple cardigan on and listened to Maya rant about the inconvenience of their impromptu reunion. Riley giggled as Maya waved off a euphemism about Farkle and Isadora flying in late that evening. Riley grabbed her keys and shuffled Maya towards the front door. Maya groaned and leaned back into Riley’s arms purposely making it hard for the bubbly brunette to move her.
“Maya,” Riley chastised and the blonde smirked.
“Oh come on Riles, do we really need to go get party supplies? It's just us six!” Maya groaned.
“Maya it's been a year since all six of us were together! Aren’t you excited to see our friends?” Riley pouted.
“Yeah, I guess,” Maya said and rolled her eyes.
Riley knew it was a front, and that Maya was just as excited as she was. Despite being close the clique six had spread out across the continent for college. Maya and Riley stayed true, and both got into NYU. While Riley went to Steinhardt for English Education, Maya found her calling at Tisch for Collaborative Art. Although in different programs, they became roommates in a cramped two-bedroom, a gift from their parents. Their friendship never wavered and if anything it got stronger over the last few years. As their junior year ended they wanted to celebrate with their best friends. In just mere months they would be college seniors, and then off to more school or careers.
“Farkle got us a suite,” Riley teased and Maya grinned.
“A suite? Okay, Minkus, guess that business degree is working after all,” Maya mused and stood up straight.
As the girls found their place at NYU, Farkle and Isadora found their place at Stanford University. Although Princeton University was their goal, they both realized the move across the country would do them good. It was no surprise that both of them had done well successfully that they were graduating before their friends. Farkle in the fall will be attending Stanford Graduate School of Business and Isadora will start her Ph.D. program in Neuroscience. Another reason for their motley crew of friends to come together.
“It's more like a graduation gift from his parents,” Riley said and led Maya out of their apartment.
“I can't believe those two geniuses are already going to their second degrees, I barely think I am going to make it out of my bachelor’s,” Maya groaned as Riley locked the door.
The two linked their arms together and Riley giggled.
“Maya you're doing great in school, As and Bs,” Riley exclaimed.
“It's only because I am actually interested in school now, why couldn't we just jump to college?” Maya asked as they walked down the stairs.
“That's not how life works,” Riley said as they left the apartment building.
Loud city noises blare down the streets and the crowds shuffled through masses of New Yorkers. Both girls leaped into the mass and followed the flow down the street.
“I hope Party City isn't crowded,” Maya said as Riley smiled brightly.
A benefit of having an apartment in Union Square was that everything was close by to them. They could pop in, get some supplies and grab lunch all within walking distance.
“I doubt it, no major holidays, just some graduations in a few weeks,” Riley said.
“So … we talked about Smarkle, is there a particular someone you would like to talk about before we see them?” Maya teased.
“Zay? I heard he might double major,” Riley shrugged.
“What is he? Can he?” Maya asked as Riley nodded.
“I mean he is a dance major, maybe he wants to do something in that field but more,” Riley said.
“Sounds like a lot,” Maya mused.
“I know but it's Zay, and Duke is letting him do it, why not take advantage?” Riley said
Zay’s college choice was a surprise to all of them. They knew Zay was eclectic and loved to do different things, but they all assumed he would go back to Texas. He threw them for a loop when he decided to go to Duke University in North Carolina for Dance. They knew he liked ballet but didn't think he would take it on as a major.
“Wait! You deflected! You know who I was talking about Riles. A certain cowboy down in Texas,” Maya teased.
Lucas.
Lucas’s choice was no surprise to Riley, she knew what he was interested in since they were in the seventh grade. So when he announced he was going to Texas A&M Riley was excited for him no matter what. They decided it was in their best interest to break up and stay as friends. Allowing one another to explore these new waters without being weighed down by a significant other. However, it didn't matter to Riley as she never found anyone to match Lucas on any level. Sure she went on dates and flirted around, but nothing was serious. No one was able to make her feel like he did.
“Lucas?” Riley asked.
“You said Huckleberry’s name, that's a big step for you,” Maya said with a grin.
“I always say his name, it's you who insist on these nicknames, Maya we’re twenty-one now. Don't you think it would be a good time to drop the nicknames?” Riley asked.
“What and miss out on annoying moral compass, do you know me Riles?” Maya fake gasped and Riley chuckled.
“Yes I do, and to answer your question, there’s nothing to talk about, Lucas and I are friends, with the exception of Smarkle, we are all friends,” Riley said and directed Maya into Party City.
“You two were always more than just friends,” Maya said as Riley dragged her towards balloons.
“Why are we getting party supplies again?” Maya groaned.
“Well while we are just becoming seniors, Farkle and Izzy are graduating. I thought it would be nice to have something like a little congratulations thing during our reunion,” Riley said as she perused gold and silver balloons.
“Do we have to get gifts?” Maya asked.
“I’m getting them cards, and I got them each something small, just a congrats thing. You don't have to, you know how I feel about gift-giving,” Riley said with a smile.
“You love it you fruit loop, I guess I’ll look for something here,” Maya sighed and followed Riley down the aisles.
As the girls scoured the store for supplies, they kept the conversation light about their friends. Catching one another up on information to prepare for the annual reunion. Maya laughed as she picked up small party favors and found two keychains for her friends.
“Look one for each of them, the dollar sign for Farkle, and the brain for Izzy,” Maya said as she jingled them.
Riley playfully rolled her eyes and smiled at her best friend. However, she knew the two would love Maya’s gift and treasure it because that is what friends do.
“I have a special order to pick up,” Riley said as she walked towards the counter.
“Special? Oh, Riles, what did you do?” Maya asked as Riley talked to the cashier.
Riley emptied her basket of balloons, candy, and streamers. She smiled as the cashier revealed a bag with Stanford University decorations.
“Of course,” Maya said.
“It's going to be so much fun,” Riley said as the cashier rang up her things.
“Fruit Loop, look I am going to the other cashier to pay for this, don't get any more supplies,” Maya chastised as she walked away.
Riley playfully rolled her eyes once more and smiled as the Cashier scanned the items. Riley’s eyes caught a glimmer of gold and she saw a gaudy gold plastic necklace with a horseshoe. She bit her bottom lip in complementation and took the plunge.
“Could I get that too?” Riley said as she pointed to the necklace.
The cashier rang it up and gave her the total. Riley swiped her card with no hesitation and smiled as she was handed the bags. Maya had sauntered over with her small bag and raised her eyebrows.
“Got everything?” Maya asked as Riley nodded.
Riley sat at her desk as she edited her final paper for class. One click and she would officially be done with her junior year. However, she couldn't stop herself from continuously changing the ending. Something felt off, and she didn't know what it was. She glanced at the clock and saw it was well past 11:00 PM, and she was exhausted. She rubbed her eyes and stifled a yawn.
Her phone vibrated and she glanced at it. It was a text but who it was, surprised her. She didn't know why he would text her so late but he had to have a reason. Sure they chatted outside the group chat but it was mundane, and not so late.
Lucas: Hey you up?
Riley: Unfortunately, is everything ok?
Lucas: Yeah can I call?
Riley hesitated but ultimately confirmed that he could. Before she knew it, her phone was ringing in her hands. As she took a deep breath she picked up the call.
“Hey,” She whispered.
“Hey,” Lucas responded.
“Hey,” She repeated.
“I thought we grew out of that,” He chuckled.
“I thought so too,” Riley said as she leaned back in her seat.
“Sorry to call so late it's almost midnight over there right?” He asked.
“Yeah but it's fine I was up, I was working on my final paper,” Riley said as she scrolled through the document.
“Riley Matthews hasn’t finished her homework, oh no the world is ending,” He joked.
“Oh stop it, I have till tomorrow midnight to submit it but I wanted it done before … the reunion,” Riley said.
“That's the Riley I know, am I interrupting? Do you want to finish it?” Lucas asked as he cleared his throat.
Riley paused and leaned back in her chair. A part of her did want to finish the paper, but the other part of her wanted to know why he called, especially this late.
“I think my brain is fried, I know something is wrong, I just can't put my finger on it, I can talk. What's up?” Riley said as she tried to make her voice sound light.
“I kind of wanted to hear your voice,” Lucas said, his voice deepening.
“My voice?” Riley questioned.
“Yeah … I just needed to hear it. Talking to you has always been easy Riley, and I thought I would call one of my best friends,” Lucas said.
Riley could tell something was wrong, but just like her paper, she couldn't put her finger on it. She twirled some hair around her finger and listened to him.
“What did you want to talk about? Tomorrow?” Riley asked.
“I’m excited to come home,” Lucas said and Riley could feel her heart race slightly.
“Texas isn't home?” Riley asked.
“No it isn't, not when everything I love is back in New York,” Lucas said
“Like your friends,” Riley said.
“Yeah but a particular one in mind. Plus I wouldn't feel so lost, and I think … I need to be found” Lucas said his voice lofty and Riley bit her lip.
“Are you okay Lucas, you sound … off,” Riley asked as he chuckled.
“You definitely know me the best, yeah I’m good, I had a drink and I think … it's getting to me. Don't mind me, I’m sorry for interrupting. Goodnight Riley,” Lucas said and hung up the call before Riley could say anything.
Riley looked at the phone puzzled at what just happened. She thought about waking Maya but she decided against it. Instead, she crafted a long but well-intended text to the Texan. She needed him to know she wasn't judging him and that she was there for him.
Riley: Hey, you sounded off. I know you said you drank but, it didn't seem like that was what was going on? You know you can talk to me always if you want to call back we can talk about what's bothering you. I hope you're okay Lucas, I’m always here for you.
Riley sent the message and returned to her paper. She glanced at her phone every few seconds and waited to hear it vibrate back but it didn't. She sighed and started to type up her conclusion, so she could finally finish her paper. As she saved the document and uploaded it to her college portal, she checked her phone. Still nothing. As she submitted the paper, she got up from her seat and went to the bathroom to do her bedtime routine.
Lucas crossed her mind with each task, and she wondered if tomorrow it would be easier to talk. She hoped all was alright, and she wished he would have told her what's wrong. As she finished her routine she bounded for her room. She flicked her light off and crawled into bed exhausted from the day. She grabbed her phone to plug it in to charge when she saw a new alert. She swiped through to see a response from Lucas.
Lucas: I love you.

I am Joshaya trash and all, but they aren’t my OTP. As such, I write other fics (mainly crossovers) where Maya is ooc and with other people.... y’know, because it’s FANFICTION.... and, today, someone who is a Joshaya stan took severe offense to this and commented on [ch1] of both my posted GMW crossover fics very angrily.
How hard is it, really, to just not read stories you don’t like? I do it ALL THE TIME.
Like, I’m not offended that they decided to do that (really, it just shows immaturity on the part of the comment-leaver), but it is really interesting. Especially considering how much flack I got from other Joshaya shippers on the one story I have that IS Joshaya because I wasn’t writing them as total marysues. Apparently, I can’t write it correctly, but when I write something different, that is wrong, too.

Girl Meets Senior Year | Ch. 2
Summary: Three years have passed since Lucas and Riley fought on the first day of High School. The two never spoke again until one fateful night, the night Lucas saved Riley. Now he must save her from herself and not fall for her in the process. Rucas AU Centric. Joshaya x Smarkle x ZayxOC
Word Count: 1,968
Trigger Warning: Sexual Abuse
[1]
Chapter 2
Girl Meets Shattered
3 Years Later
"I believe that two people are connected at the heart, and it doesn't matter what you do, or who you are or where you live; there are no boundaries or barriers if two people are destined to be together" - Julia Roberts
Riley sat at the counter of her Mother's café and scribbled feverously in her notebook.
"Cake?"
Riley looked up and saw Zay standing in front of her with a slice of chocolate cake. Zay grinned and placed the small dish in front of her notebook. She smiled softly and stuck her finger in the chocolate mousse. Riley brought her finger to her lips and moaned at the taste of the sugar.
"Zay you are awesome! I am glad my Mom gave you this job" Riley commented as Zay passed her a small silver fork.
Zay had scored a job at Topanga's a year ago as a Waiter and it has helped him keep everything on track. Riley wasn't surprised that Zay was good at his job, he loves the people and they love him. Between serving the guest and snacking, he made everyone feel important. He was no longer Robin Lunch; he was Zay Best Waiter Ever.
"Well it does help that you are one of my best friends," Zay said as he took a bite of her cake.
"Zay!" Riley scolded with a laugh.
"Quality assurance" Zay mumbled with his mouth full.
"And?" Riley said as he took another bite.
"It's ok" He joked and Riley let out a laugh.
"Zay Man!" Riley turned around to see Maya walking with a messenger bag.
"No love for me Peaches," Riley said, taking a bite of her cake.
"Well that depends on you Honey, did you finish the next chapter?" Maya asked.
Riley smiled triumphantly and pulled out her iPad and notebook. Maya grinned and snatched the two out of her hands.
"Riles! You've been holding out on me! Now I can draw Violet and Peaches, I've been lacking some great art time" Maya cooed and flipped through the pages.
"I still can't believe you two are creating a graphic novel," Zay said as he took the last bite of cake and grabbed the plate.
Riley tilted her head in disbelief of Zay eating her snack and let out a chuckle. Yet he was right who knew that Riley Matthews could write so well. It was well known Maya had amazing artistic abilities, but one day Farkle and Maya read a short story that Riley wrote. They couldn't believe that Riley had a way to convey her emotions onto paper.
So junior year Riley and Maya began writing a series called Violet and Peaches. The series was about two best friends that fought crimes and had the ability to turn into cats. It was a silly idea, but anything could be possible in their world.
Their little crew actually would have weekly meet-ups and read the adventures and discuss what they believe should happen next. Maya would sketch the new ideas and Riley would write it all down. Farkle has even suggested that they submit it to publishing companies to get offers. However, Riley declines every time while Maya boasts about being the next great graphic designer.
"Believe it, Zay!" Maya said and stopped at a page.
"Riles this is it, this is Violet and Peaches next adventure, I love it," Maya said and a bright smile graced her face,
"Thanks," Riley said and shrugged.
"No drawing Maya we have to head to the Homecoming Game!" Zay said as Maya pulled out her sketchbook.
"Do we have to?" Maya whined and frowned.
"Of course Riley here is our homecoming queen nominee," Zay said and threw his apron onto the countertop.
"Zay you have to lock up," Topanga said as she came from behind.
"But Mrs. M, the game, Riley, Cheerleaders!" Zay rambled and widened his eyes.
"Mom, I got it," Riley said and walked behind the counter.
"Riley aren't you supposed to be at the game to walk across and everything?" Topanga asked.
"I'll be a few minutes late it's fine, really besides, we are closing in twenty minutes, guys go have fun, it gives me private Riley writing time," Riley said and placed her hands under her chin.
"Riles, you sure?" Maya asked as she stood from her seat.
"Totally fine Peaches!" Riley said and grinned.
"Zay!"
Riley's grin faltered from her face when she heard the familiar voice. A voice that she didn't hear often, yet it still sent waves throughout her body. She looked down at the grain of the counter before she felt his presence nearby. He didn't acknowledge her or greet her, but he did glance at her.
"Lucas dude what are you doing here?" Zay asked as Maya glanced between Riley and Lucas.
"Dude you said we were meeting up at four-thirty, it's almost five" Lucas laughed as Zay patted his arm.
"Sorry late shift today, but come on we are all going to the game now," Zay said as Maya grabbed Riley's hand.
"Coming Maya?" Lucas asked as he turned to the Blonde.
"Yeah, Huckleberry" Maya retorted before giving Riley a squeeze.
The three began walking towards the door as Topanga followed slowly behind them. In a silent walk towards the subway, the three of them did not say anything. It could have been the awkward tension or the fact that Riley's mother was a few feet behind them.
"What the Princess isn't joining?" Lucas asked and rolled his eyes.
"Lucas!" Maya scolded and pinched his arm.
Maya didn't want Lucas bashing Riley especially in front of her own mother. Lucas wasn't surprised at Maya's actions; however, he was surprised at her using his name. He didn't make it easy for his friends to spend time with him whenever Riley tagged along.
Somehow he would end up canceling or make Riley feel uncomfortable that she would leave. It was like a switch came on inside of him that made him have to hurt her feelings. Maya had every right to be protective, but he just could not help himself.
"Sorry, Maya I guess I forget you have to protect the Princess" Lucas said and let out a chuckle.
Maya rolled her eyes and shoved him into Zay which made them fall on the ground. Topanga came over and Maya pulled her away from the two boys. Zay jostled Lucas off of him and stood up.
"Why Lucas? Why do you have to be an ass about Riley?" Zay demanded.
"She makes it easy Zay," Lucas said and stood up from the ground. He wiped his jeans and shook his head in anger. Lucas clenched his jaw and made fists before releasing them.
"Cut it out, at least for tonight! It is our last homecoming game and I want to enjoy it with all my best friends" Zay begged and clasped his hands together.
"Whatever let's just catch up to Maya so we can't sit with Smackle and Farkle," Lucas said as he pointed to the subway.
"Crap I left my wallet back at Topanga's, I think Riles is still there" Zay commented and smacked his pants.
"Look I got it don't worry, I won't say anything mean to the Princess," Lucas said and rolled his eyes.
Zay bit back his words and just held up his hands to allow Lucas to go to the café. At least in his mind, the two had to say something to one another. Lucas handed Zay his MetroCard before walking back to Topanga's. He had no idea what he was going to say to Riley and he hoped he didn't have to. He walked down a flight of stairs to see the door closed and the lights were off inside of Topanga's.
Lucas was surprised to see the lights were all off at Topanga's and placed his hands on the glass. He peered into the darkness to see nothing but an empty café. He pulled the door to see that it was unlocked and felt uneasy about what was going on. Despite not speaking to Riley, he knew she wasn't irresponsible to leave the place unlocked.
"Um hello?" Lucas called out as he walked into the dark café. The bell rang over his head and he reached to his left to find the light switch when he saw something from the corner of his eye. Lucas fell back into the glass door with a heavy shove shattering the glass. He groaned and noticed that the person was dressed in all black and was running up the stairs.
Adrenaline began to build up in him and he scrambled onto his feet. He scurried inside and began looking for Riley.
"Ri- Ril - Riley?!" His voice shook with vulnerability and he was surprised he even got her name out. Chairs were strewn haphazardly on the floor and the café counter was bare except for a rag. Lucas heard a whimper and knew where she was. He slid to his knees and saw Riley lying face down behind the bar. Her hair was spread out around her and her skirt hiked up.
"Riley?" Lucas cried and picked her head up as she cried again.
"Lucas?" She questioned as tried sitting up.
"Riley, please stay still I have to call the cops" Lucas begged as he searched for his phone in his pocket. His fingers trembled as he dialed the police and his voice cracked. After reading off the numbers to the police and hanging up he looked down at Riley who was curled in a fetal position.
He studied her as he noticed her underwear further away from the two and he froze. That was a question he didn't want to be answered right now. All that he knew was that she needed him and the three years of anger melted away. She pulled down her skirt and tried sitting up which made Lucas move away.
"No Lucas please, don't leave me" She cried and held him tightly.
"Please I know you don't like me, but don't leave me alone, please Lucas, please"
He held her tightly as she broke down within his arms.
"Don't worry Riley I got you, no one will hurt, no one" He whispered.
He held her for about five minutes before the cops arrived. Before he knew it Riley was on a stretcher and cops were asking him about twenty questions at once. Yet it didn't matter because he just stared at Riley as she was strapped in and crying.
"Son?" The Officer asked.
"I … I … didn't see him sir, but I know he was heavier and taller than I" Lucas croaked.
The Officer noticed Lucas's gaze and patted him on the back. He comprehended that Lucas was not going to be helpful until he knew that Riley was going to be alright.
"Lucas?" Riley cried and Lucas walked over. She grabbed his hand and began to cry as the paramedic placed an IV in her arm.
"I'm right here Riley," Lucas said as she squeezed his hand.
"Young man, only family can ride with her, you can meet us at Mount Sinai," The Paramedic said as Riley gripped his hand tighter.
"Please" Lucas begged as the stretcher moved away from him and Riley thrashed crying for Lucas.
Lucas stood dumbfounded and watched Riley begged for him. Thumps filled his ears and he realized his own heart was racing for her. He was scared for her and he did not know what to do.
"Son?" The Officer said and Lucas turned to him. The Officer handed Lucas's what he could only figure was Riley's bag and some papers.
"Go to her," The Officer said as Lucas without a second thought ran out of Topanga's.

Girl Meets Season 6 - Episode Fourteen – Girl Meets Spring Semester
Girl Meets Season 6
Synopsis: The Journey from High School and into College will test everything Riley knew about her life, her friendships and her love. What life lessons will she learn in her first year of college?
[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13]
A/N: the reason this took so long to post (outside of my real life problems) after my one-shot (which was probably a precursor to another one-shot) was because I heard a song, now hear me out, so the new Backstreet Boys song Chances, inspired me to go back and look at a one-shot I wrote last year, and from that I actually started writing another long fic, because obviously I had to write it after hearing the song. Although that story is going to be RUCAS centric, the other couple will exist yes, but the one shot in question is Love among the stars from Rucas fanfic week, and it has them going to different schools from everyone and all of that. I added a couple of twists, including a secret relationship storyline, because no one can stop me when I want to write something. I'm deciding on a posting schedule for this story, that story, and my Holiday Bingo stories, because I finished my writing sample for my MFA applications (they're being proofed as we speak), so I'm going to trying and write more, which means I want to write everything at once. Once I'm done with one of these things, I'm going back to the superhero AU, and possibly start plotting out season 7 for next year. Hopefully if I get into the MFA program I want to go to, I'll have time to keep writing what I want to write. This next chapter after this one is connected to this chapter, I'm still writing it right now, because I had started writing the first chapter of the other story first... sue me I really wanted to write this secret relationship AU.
Episode Fourteen – Girl Meets Spring Semester
There was a mad dash to get coffee before they left to go back to Maya’s school, Josh just wanted the morning with the two of them alone, since he knew that with his school year ramping up, he wouldn’t have the chance to visit as often as possible. They needed to schedule their lives around one another again and he wasn’t really excited at the prospect. He liked their weekends together, their dates, their lives, but he knew that Maya needed more time with Riley since they had a weird start to college so he wanted to give them that.
“I don’t wanna go,” Maya said slumping next to him on the couch at Topanga’s, “Too tired, want to go to sleep.”
He couldn’t help but laugh at the way she was acting because it was adorable to him, nearly two years together and he kept finding things he would think were dumb but were actually adorable. “I know Maya but you have to go, you’re a good student and you don’t want to fall behind,” he said before pulling her closer and letting her slump over on him to the point where he was sure that she would fall asleep if he didn’t give her coffee.
“I wish we could be like Riley and Lucas,” she mumbled to him before burrowing her face into his scarf. “They get all of this time together, and we have to commute for our dates, it’s not fair.”
“I don’t think it’s that bad, plus soon I’ll be up there with you and you’ll get sick of having me around all of the time,” he pulled off his scarf and put it around her neck, she would at least be warm.
Maya’s mother walked over to them smiling, “She giving you any trouble there?” the older woman said.
Josh shook his head and smiled, “Not a bit, she just needs some coffee and she’ll be alright.”
“That’s why I’m here,” she said as she placed their cups in front of them. “Take care of her on the way up to the school, I would love to go but Shawn is taking me somewhere so I can’t.”
“Don’t worry mom,” Maya mumbled through the scarf. “I’ll be fine.”
“Yeah I know, just be good baby girl,” Maya’s mother walked over giving Maya a kiss, then squeezing Josh’s shoulder before going back to the counter and working on stocking the display.
Josh handed Maya her coffee, getting a smile from her before she pulled down his scarf and taking a sip. She sighed once she finished, and smiled at the cup like it was the elixir of life.
“Feeling better,” he said once she put the cup back down.
“Yeah, would feel way better if you were with me at school though,” she sighed before leaning back into him. “I was serious, about wishing for what Riley and Lucas have, they sleepover in each other’s rooms, they have lunch dates, and all of that, and I want it.”
“Riley and Lucas get to have sleepovers because they go to the same school, while we don’t, we do have things that they don’t,” he said trying to bring forward the Brightside of their relationship.
“Yeah but I never get to see you like that, it’s just I guess it’s something I want.”
“Maya do you want to live with me? Is that what you’re saying?”
“Maybe, I guess it’s just that I’m a little jealous that they get all of that and we don’t.”
“Maya, my sweet, sweet girlfriend, just because Riley and Lucas have sleepovers doesn’t mean that we can’t...”
Josh was going to say more but a cup shattered behind them causing the two of them to jump, before seeing his brother standing behind them. His eyes wide as he looked between Maya and Josh, which means he heard some of their conversation, and Josh knew that they were in for it soon. Before he could stop Cory, his older brother moved so fast he hadn’t had the chance to grab him. He knew that Riley and Lucas were going to be in the middle of a storm the moment her father reached them, and Josh felt a little guilty, and from the look Maya had on her face so did she. The two of them sighed and got up, moving towards the exit, Josh texting his sister in law, who was probably asleep, on the way to his car.
Riley wondered why there was such a long time between semesters in college, it was five weeks of being at home, five weeks of going out with her friends, hanging out with her family, and of course getting sick. Now that the new semester was starting, she felt as if she had done nothing notable during the break even though she had gone out constantly. The break wasn’t as important as getting internships during the summer months, but it still felt weird not doing anything that would benefit her future. Now the spring semester was going to start and she wasn’t sure how she would be able to pay for things with the little money she did have saved up.
“You know sugar,” Zay said as he helped her with her bags. “You could have packed a little less, I mean you didn’t even take this much with you when you left.”
“Not my fault,” she said with a smile while carrying her laundry bag which was filled with extra pillows and blankets. “I didn’t know I needed all of this until I didn’t have it with me,” which was true, especially since people were always in her room hanging out, more so now that Maya, Josh, Farkle, and Smackle were feeling more comfortable with coming over and not living in their own little lovey dovey world. Which Riley thought it was cute, that they were all so in love, but she had missed her friends.
Zay sighed, before Charlie walked up and grabbed the other end of Riley’s suitcase and helping Zay up the stairs with it. She really hadn’t thought about bringing so much with her, but with Lucas always hanging out in her room, and now that her and Maya were going to figure out how to hang out more. There was a need to have things around, clothes to share, or more pillows so that Lucas wouldn’t sacrifice his arm to her. Even though she liked the feeling of his arms around her when they were watching movies, it only became a problem when they fell asleep and she ended up with his arm as a pillow.
“Oh, Riley,” Maya said as she rushed up towards her, “Josh said to tell you that he’s sorry.”
“Sorry about what?” Riley asked wondering what her Uncle could feel sorry about, they hadn’t seen much of each other since he had gone with Maya to Philly the week before the semester started. She knew that he was nearby too, because he had been helping Maya with her bags not too long ago, so now he was hiding from her too.
“Um well,” she said not looking her in the eye, “He may or may not have accidentally told your dad about Lucas staying over in your room a lot.”
“What?” Riley yelled out dropping the bag she had been holding, watching it as it rolled down the stairs. “What do you mean he accidentally told my dad, Maya my dad shouldn’t know things like that.”
“Well it was an accident, we were talking at the café, before we came back up here, and I was telling Josh about how I wish he could sleep over at my dorm with me like you and Lucas do and Josh was saying that maybe on a few weekends, that way we could all hang out more, and your dad had been standing behind us the entire time... so... yeah that happened,” she said and Riley knew it was an accident but what she was afraid of was her father showing up and ruining one of the good things that had kept her grounded during the first semester away from home.
“Maya, I need my Lucas time, we’re all so busy and it’s going to get busier and oh god my father is going to be in my room the minute I get up there isn’t he,” she said as the realization dawned on her. There’s only so much her mother could do to stop him, but if she didn’t know that he was coming up here with the pretext of knowing something then she wouldn’t stop him.
“Hey Riley,” Sam said as she was walking towards them, “your dad is in our room, and he’s doing something weird.”
Riley left the laundry bag and ran to her room just as Zay and Charlie were dropping off her stuff, watching as her father tapped up her window with a sheet, she noticed that some of her drawers had been opened as if he had been looking for something.
“Dad,” she yelled out looking at her room in horror. “What the hell are you doing?”
“Boys, I’m trying to keep boys away,” he said a nervous hitch in his voice. “No boys, boys bad, boys will take away my little girl’s innocence.”
Without even thinking she walked in and pulled him away from her window, forcing him to look her in the eye, “This is going too far,” she said to him her voice hard with anger. “I’m eighteen years old, I’m allowed to grow up, nothing is happening between me and Lucas that you don’t already know about.”
“But sex,” he started but before he could say anything, she put her hand up to stop him.
“No,” she said to him. “This is an invasion of privacy, I’m not living at home, you had no right to do this,” she could feel anger rolling through her, when she was growing up, she thought it was nice to have him worry, but now it was going too far. “Lucas and I only sleep in the same bed, and mostly it’s because we’re watching movies, his clothes which you have thrown all over this room are only here because I tend to steal them from his room, it’s a thing, girl’s steal their boyfriend’s sweaters all of the time.”
“That’s true Matthews,” Maya said from the door, she was actually wearing Josh’s NYU hoodie which long enough to be a dress on her, especially with how tall Josh was compared to the blonde.
“Now take all of that off the window, and get out before I call mom and tell her what you did,” she said knowing that her father’s Achilles heel was her mother, even after all of these years he was still afraid of making her angry.
Her father mumbled a fine, before undoing all of his work, Riley got to work on picking up what he had taken out of her drawers, looking for who knows what, while Zay brought in her laundry bag which had been left at the bottom of the stairs. Hiding behind him was Lucas, who didn’t dare go into the room, or let it be known that he was standing there. Rushing off she went to greet him, pulling him away from the door.
“Do I want to know what happened?” he asked once they were in the student kitchen on the other end of the hallway.
“Maya and Josh were talking about us,” she said looking up at him. “About how we tend to sleep on top of one another when we watch movies, and how she wished she could have that with Josh and well...”
“Your dad heard,” he said finishing what she was saying, before running his hand through his hair. “Will this change anything about how we are? Is he going to get crazy about me seeing you again, because I can’t afford to lose my shoes right now.”
Riley sighed, they were both in need of jobs, or at least work study, they didn’t have money most of the time, and the money they did have they saved up for when they wanted take out. Most of their dates since starting college had been to school events or just sitting in their rooms and eating what they had. They didn’t want to ask for help, it was oddly freeing for the both of them to try and make it on what they could, it was an experience for them all. But for the two of them, it was about finding ways to be together and not having to spend so money, they were trying to see how to live without relying on their families for help.
“I know,” she said to him as she put her arms around his waist and pulled him close. “I’m sorry that my dad is crazy.”
“We’ve known this for years,” he said as he kissed her hair. “Should I go to your room, or should I run.”
“I’m thinking we both could run, but that would only cause more problems, since it would leave my dad with Maya, Zay, Charlie, and Sam, and we don’t want to leave them with that level of crazy. But you can run if you want, I won’t hold it against you.”
Lucas shook his head, he wouldn’t leave her to deal with this, if anything, he would want to show her dad how much it didn’t affect them or their relationship. “If you have to deal with it so do I,” he said smiling at her before pulling away. “It’s what I signed up for when we started dating.”
“Okay but I’m going to protect you and your shoes from him today.”
“It would be an honor to have you protect me,” he smiled at her, and it still made her giddy just seeing him smile, it was strange feeling as if she could have someone just giving her butterflies for this long.
The two held hands walking back to Riley’s room, she held onto him comforting him, she didn’t want her dad to find a way to separate them. They wanted to be united in the fact that they wanted to have their little dates, and their sleepovers, where nothing happened.
Much to her surprise, her mother was standing in her room quietly yelling at her father, which only made Riley giggle, because if her mother was quiet when she was angry at you then that meant that she was really angry. Her mom smiled at her before dragging her father out into the hallway, “Seriously Cory,” she said.
Riley heard her mother telling her father about how when they were in college, they did the same things, and how there was the time where he was asking for more and she flashed him her butt, which only made Riley snort. “Honestly, those two sleeping in the same bed is still vanilla compared to how you and Shawn acted when you were in college. And yes, I know she’s your little girl Cory, but she’s technically an adult now and you had no right to come here and do that to her room.”
“But his clothes are all over the place,” he father practically squealed, which made Riley laugh harder.
“Cory, I’ve seen them, and honestly she wears Lucas’s sweaters all of the time, why is it a problem now? She probably steals them which is normal for a girl her age, it reminds me of when we were that young, but now you’re so preoccupied with making sure she doesn’t grow up I feel like you’re neglecting our relationship,” she said before turning around and winking at Riley. Her mother was up to something, and it was nice that she was using this as a teaching moment against her father.
She watched as her mother walked away, smiling, but acting like her husband wasn’t paying attention to her, Riley watched the woman who had raised her convince her husband that he didn’t care about her. Riley knew her father loved her mother, he was just overprotective, but it was interesting to watch. Instead of following her mother, her father watched her, before saying a quick goodbye to Riley and walking off. She knew that they would make up by the end of the day, her mother was just trying to make him feel guilty for ruining the beginning of the semester for Riley.
When she walked into her room, she was greeted by her friends all sitting around, Charlie and Zay on the floor with the extra pillows Riley brought with her, Maya and Josh sitting on one side of her bed, while Sam, Farkle and Smackle were on Sam’s bed.
“Well that was exciting,” Sam said making everyone laugh, it was the first time that Sam had truly been exposed to her father’s meddling, “But I think we should just relax for the rest of the day, because classes start tomorrow, and that was too much drama for the first day back.”
“Here, here,” Farkle said smiling at Smackle.
“I still don’t understand why your father is like that,” Smackle said, but there was no real answer for it. Farkle just took her hand and kissed it before turning back to the room.
“Let's just hope that he’s not going to do it again for a while,” she said before sitting on her bed with Lucas at her back. “Nope no more drama, so how about we get some food and watch a movie and we can talk about tomorrow.”
“Already ordered,” Farkle said with a smile. “We did it while your parents were fighting, or at least it looked like fighting.”
“More like her mother was plotting,” Maya said smiling at the group.
“I’m sure that Topanga is going to read him the riot act when they get back to the city, and then they’re going to do exactly what we’re all doing,” Josh said looking over at Riley. “Your mom is scary,” he added.
“That she is,” Riley said snuggling into Lucas before yawning, it really was her favorite place to be, he was always so warm.
Riley ended up falling asleep ten minutes into the movie, the fell of Lucas at her back, and the smell of his soap in her nose lulled her to sleep. No one had really noticed until the food arrived and Maya jumped off the bed so that Josh could help the guys bring up the pizza boxes, and everything else they had ordered. The bed moving made Riley wake up, but Lucas had held onto her so that she wouldn’t fall to the floor. It was a strange feel, being so comfortable around so many people that she could fall asleep without worrying about something happening.
“Have a nice nap?” he said kissing her temple. She relaxed into his arms, nodding before yawning.
“I don’t know why I’m so tired,” she said to him, the rest of the group had left them alone in the room.
“Too much excitement, I mean you and Maya have a class together this semester, we’ve scheduled our lives around each other, it’s our own little family, and you want to make sure that everyone is involved and happy.”
“It’s a good feeling,” she said to him. “Plus, it’s a little less stressful than my dad constantly being... well you know.”
“Trust me we all know, but hopefully he’s going to calm down a little after today, Josh was right about your mom being scary, and I wouldn’t want to cross her on any level.”
When the group came back into the group Maya leapt on top of Riley and Lucas, landing right on Riley’s legs, before turning and making herself comfortable on Riley’s legs, while putting her own on Josh’s. The food was spread out in front of them, everyone smiling at one another, it was weird, even with all of the time they had spent together over the break, this was more normal than anything else. She liked this more than going out and doing a million things because at least this way they would have the chance to sit and talk about things. It felt like having their little family together, which would only make her father sad, but she wanted to grow up and if it meant that the only version of family, she had around was her friends it was okay with her.
She didn’t love her own family any less, it was just a way for her to extend her family, make it grow into something bigger. This was the long game, this was life, you bring people in and make them a part of your world, and you hold on tight to those who matter to you. Her parents had embraced her friends before, and she knew that they would embrace them now as they are, because they were an extension of her. The only difference now was that her father had to learn to accept that she was growing up, she wasn’t going to stay a little girl, and while it scared him, she knew that her mother would show him that it wasn’t all that bad.
