S2 E20 - Girl Meets Texas Part 1

*In the train to Texas*

Yes, Riley, Farkle, Elliot and I took a train to Texas just to see our friend succeed, it was my idea actually. I wanna see him proud of himself because I know that he's gonna kill it, no doubt about it.
"Maya" Right, Elliot is sitting to my right
"What?" I ask him casually
"About the flask-" I shush him
"Don't worry, everyone is asleep except for us, they can't hear us" I sigh in relief
"I just wanted to thank you for what you did"
"You're welcome"
"And that I'll take responsibility for what I did" I frown
"You can't, it's too late now"
"Maya, the alcohol was mine, just like the flask. I am the one drinking here"
"No Elliot, people expect that from me, I'm the screw up. You're Mr. 'Teenage America', especially on the eyes of your family. They've got you in this pedestal and I'm not gonna let you fall off, got it?" he groans in defeat
"How can I make it up to you?"
"Just don't drink anymore"
"If that's what you want then I won't"
"Thank you" he whines and I roll my eyes
"What now?"
"This still doesn't feel right"
"Elliot-"
"Let me help you with Lucas"
"What?"
"I know you like him" I blush
"Stop saying out loud"
"Why?"
"It just makes it...more real"
"Stop hiding your feelings. Listen, I'll make sure that you two spend some time alone-"
"You're not gonna do that, you won't, it'll crush Riley, she loves him"
"We both know that she does, but as a brother"
"I don't wanna-"
"Good morning" Riley says yawing, that looked kinda fake but I don't pay much attention to it
"Hey, how are you feeling Riles?"
"Kinda tired" I nod
"Yeah, I can imagine"
"Why won't you sleep a little bit?"
"We're almost there"
"Sleep!" Woah, okay
"Fine, fine, I'll sleep a little" I rest my head on her shoulder, and fall asleep quickly.

*after their travel, in Texas*

"Surprise!" We say together as we come in Pappy Joe's house
"Heeeey, it's all my friends..." Lucas says with fake enthusiasm, he could've at least faked it a little bit. After a while Riley and I leave the room to change and come back.
"Well, look at you two little darlins" Pappy Joe says to us but I ignore him. I'm too busy looking into Lucas' eyes. They are looking at me the same way they did when the council wanted to cut art class. He's looking at me as if I was the only thing that mattered at this moment. I get distract by Riley's comment
"Hm. Told you this was the best way to spend all of our allowance money on the first day"
"Quit lookin' at us, Huckleberry" I say with a nervous chuckle as I slightly blush
"I'm sorry, Maya. You look good"
"Oh! Thanks" Its' really hard for me not to grin at this moment
"Yeah, you both look good" Elliot frowns and decides to end this beautiful moment
"You know what this place needs for you girls? A bay window. Bay window right now"
"What's a bay window?"
"Oh, you know, a safe place where the girls have their private talks" Oh, well, then! I'll make sure those two stay right there forever" how kind of him.
A man rushes in, he looks very scared, what could've happened?
"Pappy Joe! Pappy Joe! Pappy Joe!"
"Whoa, whoa. Don't be alarmed. It's just Cletus"
"Tombstone the bull gone crazy! He everywhere all over the place at the same time like one of them Houdini bulls"
"Use your words, Cletus"
"I am using my words, garducky. Tombstone the bull gone bananahooey!" I grin
"I love him!"
"What did Tombstone the bull do?"
"He done tore up the China shop, ironically. It's true what them say"
"You mean he broke out of his pen?"
"Oh, he brammoed the pen! What's them, a bay winder?"
"Uh, that's Riley and Maya, Cletus"
"Oh, well, how dee do"
"Well, how-" I complete Riley's sentence
"Dee-"
"Do"
"Lukey. Thissar Lukey! Gah! Oh!" Cletus and Lucas hug
"Wait, did they get Tombstone back in his pen, Cletus?"
"Yes, sir! Yes, sir! We shot him fulla sleepy juice, but I seen the look in them red eyes just before he went nighty night. And when he wake up, huh-huuuurrr!" Woah, he just didn't. Please tell me he didn't! I can't resist. I walk up to them
"What?" I ask as calm as possible
"Huh-huuurrr!" I nod
"Oh" I turn Cletus back towards Lucas, and adjust him to be eye to eye to him. Then I walk over to Lucas to do the same with him
"What?"
"Huh-huuuurrrrrr!" I smirk
"I know it's early, but my life is complete"
"Well, thankee"
"No, thank-ee!"
"All I know is, I feel sorry for the po' fool gonna ride on Tombstone. Did I tell you what he done did today?"
"Lucas is gonna ride old Tombstone in the rodeo, Cletus"
"Oh. Oh. Oh no. Lukey... Lukey... Bye, Lukey" he leaves, damn, I'm starting to get worried
"Goodbye" he sits down on the couch with a concerned expression.
