Where It All Started (sequel to The Challenge)

Chapter 8

Riley's POV:
I finished my makeup and returned them to its bag.

I swang my backpack over my shoulder and walked out of the bathroom.

The next thing i knew i was being pinned against the wall by an object.

"How much did you hear?" Missy said, a few inches from my face.

"N-Nothing!!" I said, clutching my backpack tightly.

Missy slowly loosened her grip on me. "If you tell anyone, and i mean anyone.... i will make your life miserable."

And with that, she walked away with her posse.

Maya's POV:

I walked around the hallways, looking for Riley.

Lucas had to go to football practice early this morning, which sucked.

But, i needed to start hanging out with Riley again. I need to find out what she is hiding from me.

I found her by the girls bathroom and walked over to her. She had no expression on her face whatsoever.

"Hey Riley!" I exclaimed.

She awoke to reality and jumped at the sound of my voice. "Uhh hey.." she said awkwardly.

"What's up?"

Riley just shrugged, not saying anything.

I sighed. "Riley i know something is wrong, what is it?"

"You do??" She said, blinking.

"Yeah, remember yesterday."

"Oh OHHHH." She said, laughing nervously.

Suddenly the bell rang and Riley darted off to her first class, eager to escape the conversation.

I shook my head and sighed. Saved by the bell, Riley.

I went off to my first class.

-later-

School was finally over. and i was walking home that day.

I didnt see Riley at lunch at all, and i'm starting to get worried about her.

Usually she is with Farkle or m---- wait a second!

Maybe Farkle knows something.

I got out my cell phone and sat at a park bench.

I called Lucas. "Please pick up" i murmured.

"Hello?" Lucas said.

"Hey."

"Oh hey babe. What's up??" He said.

"Listen i gotta find Farkle's house." I said.

There was a silence on the other end for about a minute, i almost thought Lucas hung up on me.

"Why??" He asked, some protectiveness in the sound of his voice.

I laughed a little and said, "Lucas dont worry. I have no interest in Farkle like that."

I heard him sigh of relief. "Dont scare me like that Maya!"

"Sorry."

We talked for about five minutes, me explaining the Riley suggestion and Lucas telling me his address.

"I gotta get back to football practice." Lucas said, groaning.

"Okay. Thanks for the help! I'll text ya later." I hung up the phone and repeated the address in my head.

Time to get to the bottom of things.
