Summer

I wake up still cuddled into Riley. I love how natural all of this feels. It's as if we've been a couple since day one. I wake Riley up by peppering her neck with kisses. She smiles, before stiring in my arms and finaly opening her eyes. "Good morning beautiful." I mumble into her skin. SHe turns over, now facing me, and presses a quick kiss to my lips. "Good morning yourself." She grins.

"Awwww!" We hear from the doorway. Riey and I shoot up to see Topanga watching us from the doorway. "Mom!" Riley groans. 

"Breakfast is ready, and afterwards, someone is gonna come by and take you two on a nature walk, so get dressed. Topanga leaves us with one last squeal before closing the door.

"We'll, we've got her convinced." I say, throwing my egs over the edge of the bed to stand. RIley does the same on her side and walks ovr to her bag. "Well, then surely we've got your dad convinced too. She's smarted than him." I joke. Riley chuckles a bit and walks into the bathroom to change. SHe emerges again with a simple black top and shorts. "Hot." I mumer. SHe smirks and walks over to me.

"You know, at some point, this isn't practicing." She points out. I put my hands on her waist and pull her closer, her waist connecting with mine. "And what's this issue with that?" I practically whisper. She looks into me eyes, switcing from them and my lips.

"Are you two coming?" Topanga interupts. Riley turns to face her mother but doesnt pull away from me.

"Yeah, come on."

Riley and I sit on opposite ends of the table, eating in silence, when we hear a knock on the door. "Can you answer it, im gonna get my shoes." Riley says, standing. I nod and walk over to the door

"Hi! My name is Victor, I'm supposed to be taking Maya and Riley on a nature walk. You Maya?" He asks. A wide grin spreads across my face looking over the boy. Great hair, great skin, great muscles, he's just... Great.

"I am Maya." I answer, smirking. Riley emerges from our shared room with shoes and her hair now up in a ponytail.

"Damn." I mumble under my breathe.

"And I'm Riley." She says when she reaches us.

"Great, now that we're all here, lets go!"

*****

The entire walk consist of me ignoring absolutely everything Vic has to say about every stupid leaf we pass and instead flirting with him. I learn that his parents actually own this place, but he's working here so he doesn't have to rely on them for money. So now he's rich and hardworking Vic. Really really liking Vic.

When we reach our cabin again, I lean against the doorframe to allow Riley to pass me to get inside so I can have a moment alone with him. Instead of doing so, Riley approaches me directly and presses her body against mine. She hesitates for a moment, then presses her lips on mine, clearly not caring about the other body here. Not that I'm complaining. Every thought of Vic is wiped from my mind as Rileys hand reaches up to grip my hair.

And then she does something new.

Riley tugs a bit at my hair, making my head tilt back a bit and my mouth open in surprise. She immediately presses her tongue into my mouth and i almost gasp. That was very much on purpose. She almost smirks into the kiss, before pulling away from me completely and walking inside without a word. I lean on the wall to support myself, breathless and frozen in shock.

And then I remember Vic. I look up at him, and he looks just as confused as I am. "I think Im gonna go..." He says. I nod, not really sure what else to say.

"You're very lucky to have a girl like her." He says, before finally walking away. I feel my heart drop.

When i finally manage to walk inside i see Riley sitting on on the couch.

"And what the hell was that?" I yell. Riley turns her head to look at me, not even bothering to stand. "I was stopping you from making a mistake." She says sternly. I roll my eyes. "You can't date anyone while we're here, you'll ruin the bet." She says more calmly.

"You dont get to decide that, i knew what i was doing." Riley stands and walks over to me. "And if you didn't? How were you planning on explaining that to my parents? Neither of us are dating anyone." I hesitate.

"Even if you're right, you could've talked to me instead of, oh i don't know, shoving your tongue down my throat?"

"And would you have listened?" She asks. My nostrils flare, but I have to admit, shes right. "Okay then. I took matters into my own hands."

I sigh, defeated. "Fine." Riley smiles and sits down again.

"Im actually flattered you were so jealous you felt the need to shove your tongue down my throat." I say, following her. She laughs at my comment.

"How can i be jealous that my fake girlfriend likes a guy?" She asks. I shrug and sit next to her. "Maybe we've been practicing too much. You're falling for me." I smirk. She shoves me playfully. "Oh please miss 'I wanna be the big spoon'. You're falling for me. Is it my eyes?" Riley bats her eyes at me.

"Yeah, sure. And you're actually not a bad kisser." I comment mindlessly. She looks at me but doesn't say anything. When i turn to look at her, she's watching me intently. "You're not so bad yourself." She murmurs. A small smile tugs on the corner of my lips. "Yeah." I reply.

She licks her lips and i feel familiar butterflies fluttering around in my stomach. Not really wanting to resist, i lean forward and kiss her. This one is much different from the rest. It feels... Genuine. Like we're trying to tell each other something, instead on trying to convince people around us of something. I take the time to notice how soft her lips are, and they taste sweet, like she sprinkled sugar on them. Her hands rest on my leg, and I feel my heart speed up even more in my chest. She's first to pull away, but she remains close enough so i can still feel her breathe on my nose.

"Sorry." I mumble. I swallow and wait for her to say something, anything that'll tell me i didn't just fuck up majorly.

"It's okay." She mutters against me. Her eyes never leaving mine. I nod a bit and pull away from her completely.

"Um, Im gonna go for a walk." I stumble out. I tie up my boots and practically run out the door.

What just happened? Lets review the facts, shall we? I kissed Riley. Not new. I liked it. Not new. I liked it that much? Kind of new. This can't be real. I can't possibly have feelings for Riley can I?

Oh, fuck. I have feelings for Riley.
