INT.MATTHEWS APARTMANT - RILEY'S ROOM - DAY

Riley and Maya are sitting at the Bay Window.

MAYA

So...he's coming back soon?

RILEY

Apparently.

MAYA

Are you okay?

RILEY

I'm not sure what i feel anymore.

MAYA

I thought going to London would help you figure out.You even broke up with Zay.

RILEY

Well,i'll figure it out when he comes.I'll see him and i'll understand what I feel.

MAYA

Good.

RILEY

So...why did he left?

MAYA

He told you?

RILEY

He told me you knew.

MAYA

Oh,boy.

RILEY

What?

MAYA

It's better for you to hear it from him than from me.

RILEY

He didn't wanna told me,so...you tell me.

MAYA

Okay.But...don't be mad on me.

RILEY

Why would I be?

MAYA

It was...because of your relationship with Zay.

RILEY

But...it can't be.He was happy when we got together.

MAYA

That's what everyone think.He stepped back,Riley.

RILEY

He left for London because of that?It's mad.

MAYA

He really loves you,Riley.He wanted you to be happy,he didn't want anyone to suffer.

RILEY

I can't believe it.And I can't believe you hide that from me.

MAYA

I promised not to tell anyone.He's my friend.

RILEY

I'm your friend too.Your best friend.

MAYA

I thought you were happy with Zay.So,i kept this secret for Farkle.

RILEY

I don't really know who's more crazy of you two.Him,for doing it or you for keeping it as secret.

MAYA

But...he's coming back,right?Everything will get better.

RILEY

He lied in my face.You too.

MAYA

Come on,Riley.It was...a good lie.

RILEY

I wish he told me truth and never left.

MAYA

You stepped back once too,right?

RILEY

That's different.

MAYA

How come?

RILEY

I never stepped back for someone I truly loved.I stepped back so you could be happy,I never stepped back for Lucas.

MAYA

Okay,we maybe should stop doing this step back thing.It has big consequences.

RILEY

Tell that to your dear friend.

MAYA

Riley.

ACT ONE

FADE IN:

INT.JOHN ADAMS HIGH SCHOOL - HALLWAY - DAY

Maya and Riley enter the school,as they notice Lucas and Farkle standing.

LUCAS (to FARKLE)

I'm so glad you are back,man.

FARKLE

I guess this school missed me,right?

Maya and Riley come.

MAYA (to FARKLE)

Is this what I think it is?

FARKLE

Hey.

Maya and Farkle hug.

MAYA

I didn't think you would come today.

FARKLE

Well...it's a surprise.

RILEY

Yeah.It's a big surprise.

FARKLE

Hi,Riley.

MAYA (to LUCAS)

Lucas...let's go.

LUCAS

Where?

MAYA

Just...let's go.

They walk away,leaving Farkle and Riley alone.

FARKLE

I don't deserve a hug?

They hug.

FARKLE (CONT.)

I'm so happy to be around all of you again.I missed this.

RILEY

What made you return?

FARKLE

I was thinking a lot.This is my home,Riley.This is where I belong.This where our gang belongs and it will always be our place.

RILEY

You stepped back.

FARKLE

Oh,god.

RILEY

How could you?

FARKLE

Riley...it was my decision,okay?

RILEY

You almost ruined all your life because of me.You left this country,which is not that small.That was a pretty big step.

FARKLE

I couldn't watch you two anymore.I pushed him and i didn't wanna him to suffer because of my feelings.

RILEY

You did a wrong thing.

FARKLE

And you shouldn't have broken up with him.

RILEY

It wasn't just me.We both did it.

FARKLE

Were you happy with him?

Riley,silent,doesn't know what to say.

RILEY

I don't know.

FARKLE

You don't know?

RILEY

I was never as much happy as I was when we were together.

FARKLE

Yes,we were happy.

RILEY

Why can't we be happy again?

FARKLE

Because...I'll suffer again.Than...i might be gone again and than...we could never be able to be friends again.

RILEY

I hurt you so much?

FARKLE

I couldn't be any more hurt than you hurt me already.

RILEY

Wow.Is this mean I'm a bad person?

FARKLE

It means you are the greatest person alive and I'm happy to have you around.

Riley smiles.

FARKLE (CONT.)

I'm happy that we are able to be that kind of friends again.

RILEY

We are friends?

FARKLE

Of course.

RILEY

What If that's not what I think we are?

Farkle,keeps silent.

INT.TOPANGA'S - DAY

Zay and Lucas are sitting on sofa.

LUCAS

Okay,buddy.I'm here to make you feel better.

ZAY

I still miss her.

LUCAS

Why?

ZAY

I was happy.

LUCAS

And...now you'll be even more happy because you are single again.

ZAY

That sucks.And you know it.

LUCAS

Wrong.You are at the single market again,you can choose whatever chick you want...you might have fun.Isn't that awesome?

ZAY

Why aren't you single than?

LUCAS

I found my path.

ZAY

Thanks a lot.

LUCAS

Okay.We are going to have fun today.Let's make you forget about Riley Matthews.

ZAY

It's impossible.

LUCAS

You did not say impossible.Nothing is impossible!

Maya enters,she walks towards them.

MAYA

Hi,guys.(to LUCAS) You called me?

LUCAS

Yes.Our friend needs us.

MAYA

You said it was emergency.

LUCAS

And what's more important than helping a friend who's dealing with a hard break up?

MAYA

Sure.

ZAY

Guys...i'm fine,okay?

LUCAS

No,you are not.Farkle's back and you need to face all of this.

MAYA

Well...we are gonna help you,Zay.I don't have nothing better to do,anyway.

LUCAS

That's right.

MAYA (to LUCAS)

And you own me one.

LUCAS

Oh,boy.

INT.MATTHEWS APARTMANT - RILEY'S ROOM - DAY

Riley and Farkle are sitting at the Bay Window.Not looking at each other,feeling weird,a bit.

FARKLE

We should talk.

RILEY

Yes.

FARKLE

Okay...sitting here feels as...

RILEY

As you are my best friend?

FARKLE

Yes,exactly.

RILEY

We have another chance.Why don't we use it?

Farkle,looks at her,deeply.

FARKLE

Are we even ready for another try of this relationship?

RILEY

I don't know what ready means anymore.

FARKLE

It was good feeling...to accept the fact that we are over and that we are never gonna be together again.And now...I'm back and I can't fight my feelings.

RILEY

And I can't fight them either...anymore.

FARKLE

I don't think this is good thing to do.

RILEY

Why not?

FARKLE

We might break up again.And than...our friendship would be one big messed up thing.

RILEY

Nothing's gonna ruin our friendship.

FARKLE

This ruined.

RILEY

I want us...to be together again.

Farkle,stands up.

FARKLE

We're not even sure ourselves.

Riley stands too.

RILEY

No,Farkle.I'm sure.I love you.I've always loved you.

FARKLE

As a friend?

Riley,silent,feeling confused a bit.

FARKLE (CONT.)

You see?You can't even decide and tell me which way you love me.

RILEY

I was confused lately.

FARKLE

And you are confused now.

RILEY

I'm not.

FARKLE

Back in London...you said that now you know how you love me.What was that?

RILEY

I was hiding my feelings,okay?

FARKLE

What?

RILEY

It was before Zay and I broke up.I wanted to be your friend,i wanted it desperetely.So much...that I even tried to convice myself that I love you as friend.

FARKLE

I don't know what's gonna happen.

RILEY

What do you want to happen?

FARKLE

Whatever happens...let's not stop talking with each other.

RILEY

Okay.

They both look a bit confused,thinking.

INT.TOPANGA'S - DAY

Zay is still sitting on sofa.Lucas and Maya are standing,near the bar.

MAYA

This was a bad decision,Lucas.

LUCAS

Come on.It can't be that bad.

Lucas looks at Zay.

LUCAS (CONT.)

Okay,it is bad.

MAYA

He needs to get over this break up by himself.We can't hurry him or make him forget her in a minute.

LUCAS

I don't get girls.They were happy and than,weeks later they just broke up.Who does that things?

MAYA

Teens.

LUCAS

Okay.We are happy now,we will always be happy.And we are not gonna break up.How can our relationship be so different from theirs?

MAYA

You are kidding,right?Not all the relationships are the same.

LUCAS

I dated Riley.It looks like she was always searching for Farkle in her boyfriends.

MAYA

Why to mention that?

LUCAS

I want Zay back.

MAYA

Give him a time.

LUCAS

Maya,if we don't bring him back...Riley's and Farkle's possible relationship will make things even worse.

MAYA

Fine.But...i don't know what to do.

LUCAS

Come her.

They walk towards Zay,who's having phone in his hand.

LUCAS (to ZAY)

Buddy...

ZAY

Look at this photo.

Lucas takes phone,looking at phont of Riley and Zay while they were dating.

LUCAS

Good.

ZAY

It's...when we were together.She's so pretty.

LUCAS

Now.Listen to me.Put that phone down and forget about that crazy brunette.

MAYA

Lucas!

LUCAS

What?She's crazy for not realizing what kind of boyfriend she had.

ZAY

I'm not mad at her.

LUCAS

Well...you should be.

MAYA (to LUCAS)

What are you doing?

LUCAS

Something we should've done long time ago.

MAYA

Oh,boy.

RILEY

You will never stop doing that,will you?

She comes closer to him.

FARKLE

It's still great fun.

RILEY

I know my feelings towards you.Maya was right.

FARKLE

We are gonna risk it all...including our friendship?

RILEY

I am ready.Are you?

Farkle nods.

RILEY (CONT.)

And what if it breaks our friendship...forever?

FARKLE (smiles)

Don't risk anything you are you're not willing to lose.

RILEY

Okay.

Both of them smile.We notice music in the background:

Heartbeats by The Knife.

Farkle and Riley keep looking at each other,deeply,coming closer and hugging.They feel each other,hardly can split from hug,until they begin kissing,slowly.

The begin breathing hard,kissing,than they split.

They take each other for hand,getting close to bed,in slow motion,smilling.They lay on bed,looking at each other,still,

kissing,feeling happy,finally.Farkle breaks the kiss,looking at her,until they begin kissing again,deeply.

The music ends.

INT.TOPANGA'S - NIGHT

Lucas,Maya and Zay are sitting at the couch.

MAYA

Okay,we have been here all day.I'm exhausted.

ZAY

You are just waisting your precious time with me.

LUCAS

No,we are not.

MAYA

Knock it off,Lucas.Please.You heard him.

LUCAS

Riley is...a bad person.

MAYA

What?

LUCAS

Come on...she left Zay as they were never serious.

ZAY

Nobody left nobody.We both broke up.

LUCAS

Come on.Did you have a choice?

ZAY

Hm.

LUCAS

She cheated on me,you know.So...she's not that sweet angel.

MAYA

Where are you going with this,Lucas?

LUCAS

Let me finish.She broke up with Farkle and inmedietely started dated...Gardner.

MAYA

Charlie.

LUCAS

Right,Charlie.

MAYA

And she speaks damn French very well.

LUCAS

That's not a bad thing.

MAYA

I hate French.

ZAY

Me too.

LUCAS (to ZAY)

She's so confused person.And she should've never been with you,if she had her own doubts.

ZAY

Wow.I'm feeling much better now,guys.

LUCAS (to MAYA)

You see?

MAYA

I stepped back.She stepped back.Farkle stepped back.Damn.She made us all follow that tradition.

LUCAS

And she brotherzoned me.I mean...it's weird being someone's brother alike if you love them as friends.

ZAY

Guys,i'm fine now.Thanks for spending your time with me.

He walks out of Topanga's,Maya and Lucas keep talking.

MAYA

She tried to be more like me.

LUCAS

I feel for that concept.

MAYA

Farkle never loved us equally,because of her.

LUCAS

That's...good?

MAYA

We promised each other to never seattle for anyone less than Farkle.

LUCAS

What are we doing?

MAYA

Are we good friends?

LUCAS

We were badmouthing her.

MAYA

We were mean.

LUCAS

I think Riley would understand us.

MAYA

She would.At least...Zay's fine now.

They share a look,smilling.

MAYA (CONT.)

She's my greatest friend.

LUCAS

And...one of best friends around.

MAYA

We would be lost without her,don't you think?

LUCAS

Yeah,we would.

Maya puts her head on Lucas's chest.
