once again • [f.m. + r.m.]

He was a fucking heir to one of the largest family fortunes in Manhattan. He couldn't just bring a baby in the picture. He couldn't just bring Riley into the picture.

"I toast to that," Billy said, as he clinked glasses with Zay and Lucas, "Best of luck, Minkus." He let out a laugh, afterwards.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuuuuck," Farkle groaned, loudly, before taking one last bite from the apple, "I don't know what to do about that."

Lucas raised an eyebrow, "Well, I mean, if I were you, which thankfully I'm not-" He ignored a nasty glare from Farkle, "I would just pick both, if necessary."

"How the hell am I supposed to do that?" Farkle gave him a confused look.

"Just keep seeing her secretly or something. I mean, you're not Beyonce. There aren't paparazzi waiting to snap your picture every chance they get," Lucas explained, "The worst is just society photographers but we don't get much of that on mornings like this."

Farkle sighed, "Once again. Fuck." He mentally decided to just stay home to think about his predicament.

Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York

"You know what I need?" Maya asked Riley, as she fed Nathan his breakfast food, "A nice fuck. It's been a while since I got laid."

Riley raised an eyebrow, as she looked up from her breakfast, "What?"

Maya repeated what she said and then added, "Honestly, seeing Lucas again made me realize how pathetic my life has been since he and I broke up. I know I don't need a guy, but I want one. I want a relationship with somebody. I just want to have something with someone."

"So do I," Riley said, "but you don't hear me expressing how much I want to get laid." She didn't really want to get laid. She just wanted Farkle back but she wasn't going to give in so easily.

She looked at Nathan and sighed, "No guy would want to date a single mom. They'll probably look at me and think I'm pretty, but then they'll see Nathan and bail."

It had never actually happened to her since she had never trued to pursue anything with any guy, but it was what she expected. It wouldn't have surprised her if that did ever happen to her.

Maya looked at her, "Oh, don't discourage yourself, Riles. Those type of guys are assholes. You'll find the right guy."

Farkle could have been the right guy for her, in Maya's opinion, until he was stupid enough to dump Riley. Maya knew how much Riley loved Farkle for who he was and he had let her go despite that.

It still pissed Maya off to this day. Why did Farkle had to be such an ass and break up with her? Why did it matter how much money a person had? Why didn't love matter?

"I hope you find the right guy, too," Riley said, with a smile, "You deserve happiness."

Riley definitely knew that Maya had had trouble meeting and trusting guys ever since her breakup with Lucas. Maya was in so much shock that she had been cheated on that it left a mark on her.

Their breakups destroyed a part of themselves. Although they were all fixed up now, it wasn't easy to get back up on their feet. They were still adjusting to the new situation and it didn't exactly help that the two young men had recently found their way back into their lives.

"Yeah," Maya said, "but it's so hard. Meeting people is so hard." She wiped some food off of Nathan's lip.

Riley shrugged, "I mean, there's always Tinder, so-"

"Hell no," Maya cut her off, shaking her head, "I'm not desperate enough for that." She stopped feeding Nathan and proceeded to clean up the small mess that he made.

"Well, then, maybe you should go to a club or something tonight. Get laid," Riley suggested, "but always make sure they're wearing a fucking condom or you could get an STD or, er, pregnant."

Maya let out a chuckle, "I'm aware." She shrugged, "but maybe I will. I'd love to go dancing again."

"Then, do it!" Riley said, encouragingly, "You don't have to be here tonight with me. Go out and have some fun. You deserve it."

Maya smiled, "I will, but it's still 10 AM so no clubbing yet." She chuckled, "It's a nice day out, today. Do you wanna take a walk around DUMBO?"

Riley looked at Nathan and then nodded, "Sure." Anything to get her mind off her pending situation.
