He told me what?

ZAY

About his mother.

MAYA

So,you know what's going too?

ZAY

Maybe.

MAYA

We've been together for so many years.I mean...I've known him since middle school.

ZAY

Talk to him,then.

MAYA

Why don't you just tell me?

ZAY

I don't think there's anything to tell.

MAYA

Zay...I am not dumb.

ZAY

Can we stop talking about Lucas for a second and finally talk about me?

MAYA

Oh,sorry.I didn't notice you had some interesting topic to talk about.Sorry.

ZAY

I am thinking about my future a lot.College is coming to an end soon.

MAYA

Yeah.

ZAY

I am terrified.

MAYA

Do you know what you want to do when it ends?

ZAY

That's the problem.I don't.

MAYA

I don't think I can help you with that.

ZAY

I am all messed up.The only good thing was the job Minkus offered me.

MAYA

Well,those were the good times,right?

ZAY

You are lucky to be artist,Maya.

MAYA

That's not luck.It found me and I found it.

ZAY

And I'm still in process of finding it and it didn't find me yet.

They laugh.

INT.LUCAS'S AND MAYA'S APARTMANT – LIVING ROOM – DAY

Maya and Lucas are standing.

MAYA

I don't understand why are you avoiding the talk about your mother,Lucas.

LUCAS

I am not avoiding it.

MAYA

You clearly are.

LUCAS

I...just don't like talking about it.

MAYA

You came here many years ago.You never mentioned her in person.Why?

LUCAS

Don't be have something interesting to talk about?

MAYA

Isn't this interesting?

LUCAS

Not exactly.

MAYA

You are making me think that you don't love your own mother.And I know that's not the truth because you care about everyone.

LUCAS

If I care about my friends,it doesn't mean I'll care about everyone else in the same way.

MAYA

Who are you?

LUCAS

Maya...I don't like talking about my mother because she's great person and there's nothing more to say about her.

MAYA

Something's going on.

LUCAS

Nothing's going on,okay?Just...let's not talk about it again.

MAYA

You know everything about me.You know about my mother,my father and all my family.

LUCAS

I never really pressured you to talk about it.

MAYA

Nothing you is so hard.

LUCAS

Well...you accepted that one thing.Why can't you accept the fact that I don't wanna talk about this?

MAYA

Okay.

LUCAS

Okay?

MAYA

I said okay.

LUCAS

You don't look okay.

MAYA

But I feel okay.

LUCAS

I just...I am sorry.

MAYA

You always are.

LUCAS

And I mean it every single time I say it.

MAYA

I hope so.

LUCAS

What's that supposed to mean?

MAYA

I want to know more about you and your family.

LUCAS

You know everything that's important.

MAYA

You come from Texas.I met Pappy Joe.Vanessa is your ex girlfriend,Zay one of greatest friends and you are crazy when you turn Texan.

LUCAS

Yeah.

MAYA

I don't know a thing.

LUCAS

Most relationship fall apart when you know too much about each other.

MAYA

Like whose relationship?

LUCAS

Like Far...

MAYA

Whose?

LUCAS

Nevermind.I don't have clear example,but it's better when you don't know much about the other.

MAYA

Okay.

LUCAS

There's nothing to know,trust me.

MAYA

I hope so.

They kiss and hug.

INT.TOPANGA'S – LATER

Zay and Lucas are sitting at the bar.

ZAY

I don't know doing any job.I don't know what's gonna happen to me as soon as we end college.

LUCAS

You told Maya something about my mother?

ZAY

Me?

LUCAS

She has been asking me about her.

ZAY

She was asking me too.

LUCAS

What did you said?

ZAY

Nothing.

LUCAS

Good.

ZAY

Why aren't you open with her,Lucas?

LUCAS

I can't...not right now.

ZAY

You've known her almost all your life.

LUCAS

I want to talk to you about something else.

ZAY

You've got solution to my problem?

LUCAS

What problem?

ZAY

You aren't even listening to me,are you?

LUCAS

Sorry.

ZAY

Okay.

LUCAS

You think that most people break up because they are too similar?

ZAY

I guess.

LUCAS

Hm.

ZAY

Maya and you are not similar at all.

LUCAS

I was talking about...somebody else.

ZAY

May I know what's this about?

LUCAS

I can't tell you.

ZAY

Well...I guess that most people do break up because of realizing how similar they are.

LUCAS

What if they never realize it and end up hurting each other as soon as they come to realization?

ZAY

Dude,you are confusing me.

LUCAS

I just one some advice.

ZAY

Hey...you and Riley were similar.I think that's why your relationship never worked.

LUCAS

We were similar,but we loved each other in friendly way.

ZAY

I don't know.

Then,Farkle and Riley enter.As soon as they enter,Lucas looks at Riley.

RILEY (to FARKLE)

I'll order some drinks.

Farkle and Zay sit for the table.

LUCAS

I want to help you,Riley.

RILEY

That was all I asked for and you did.

LUCAS

I did?How?

RILEY

I finally managed to say I love you to Farkle.Thank you,Lucas.

LUCAS

So...you know how you feel?

RILEY

Yes.

LUCAS

How you feel,Riley?

RILEY

I love Farkle.

LUCAS

Do you know how you love him?

Riley keeps silent,thinking,a bit confused.

RILEY

Um...

LUCAS

Riley...how you think you feel is actually how you really feel.

RILEY

I heard it once.

LUCAS

I know how you feel.

RILEY

The only one who knows how I feel is Maya.

LUCAS

Why's that?

RILEY

She knows me.

LUCAS

I know you too.Farkle knows you too.

RILEY

What does that mean?

LUCAS

You two know each other better than anyone else.

RILEY

Yeah.

LUCAS

You will know what is that like that.

RILEY

Can't you tell me?

LUCAS

I,indeed found out something about you and I still can't say it.

RILEY

You are killing me.

LUCAS

I need you to get it yourself.

RILEY

Okay.

Then,Farkle comes.

FARKLE

Riley,I am ready.

RILEY

For what?

FARKLE

I need to do this.

RILEY

You are scaring me.

FARKLE

We've been together all our life...more together than apart.I am so sure of what I'm about to do.I am asking you to marry me,Riley.

RILEY

Um...

FARKLE

You don't need to answer now or later.I'll wait forever for this answer.

RILEY

Farkle...

FARKLE

I love you,Riley.I want to marry you and I'd never thing of marrying anyone else.So...this wasn't some fancy proposal,but I am just asking for your answer.When you are ready to give me the answer,do it.

He leaves.Riley's confused,which only Lucas understands as he keeps looking at her.

ACT TWO

INT.RILEY'S APARTMANT – NIGHT

Riley and Maya are sitting at the sofa.

MAYA

You are getting married?Before me?

RILEY

No one's getting married,okay?

MAYA

But,he asked you to get married.

RILEY

It wasn't even proposal,so...

MAYA

But...you want to get married,right?

Riley keeps silent.

MAYA

Okay...this is weird.

RILEY

Of course I'd love to get married one day,but...I don't think the right day has come.

MAYA

But,if you really love someone,the right day is every day.

RILEY

Of course I love him.How can you possibly doubt it?

MAYA

I am not doubting anything.I am just...worried.

RILEY

I need your help,Maya.Something's going on and I don't get what.

MAYA

I can't help you,Riley.

RILEY

Why not?

MAYA

I am not you.I once was and it was stupid to even guess how you feel.

RILEY

I know how I feel.

MAYA

Okay.

RILEY

I do!

MAYA

Why are you asking me then?

RILEY

I don't know.

MAYA

You know how you feel,right?

RILEY

Yes.

MAYA

What are you scared of?

RILEY

I don't know.

MAYA

Well,I prefer being asked to marry than being angry with my boyfriend.

RILEY

What happened?

MAYA

He avoids talking about his mother.

RILEY

Oh.

MAYA

You see...your thing is nothing compared to mine.

RILEY

Why do you think he avoids it?

MAYA

He might be hiding something.

RILEY

I don't think so.He's Lucas.

MAYA

So?You think he's still the Mr.Perfect he was back when we met him?

RILEY

I don't know anymore.

MAYA

He was as broken as I was.

RILEY

You love him,Maya.I don't think you can get mad whatever he does.

MAYA

Yeah.

RILEY

But,it's weird that he hadn't told you anything about her yet.

MAYA

Well,Farkle indeed always tells you everything...there's no secrets or untold things between you,guys.It's like he's your ...

Then,she stops talking.

MAYA

Oh.

RILEY

My what?What just happened?

MAYA

Nothing.Nothing happened.Let's not do this anymore.

RILEY

Okay.

And they keep sitting there,in silence.

INT.TOPANGA'S – NIGHT

Lucas and Maya are standing at the bar.

LUCAS

So,Riley is confused,right?

MAYA

I don't know.

LUCAS

I knew it.

MAYA

You knew what?

LUCAS

Nevermind.

MAYA

Are you finally opening up about your mother?

LUCAS

Maya...

MAYA

You know what?Just forget it!

She's about to leave,but he takes her hand.

LUCAS

It's just...not my moment.

MAYA

When it's gonna be?

LUCAS

My moment will be my moment.

Maya smiles.

LUCAS

I'll tell you about it when the moment is right.

MAYA

Okay.

LUCAS

Okay?

They kiss and hug.

RILEY

Wow...this is...

FARKLE

You like it?

RILEY

Are you kidding?

FARKLE

Thank god.

RILEY

What's the ocassion?

Farkle looks straight into Riley's eyes.

FARKLE

I didn't propose right.

RILEY

Farkle...

FARKLE

I know you didn't expect it that way,but I am sometimes one big mess.

Riley smiles,as he takes the ring from his pocket.

RILEY

What...?

FARKLE

Riley Matthews...

Farkle gets down on knees.

FARKLE
