Okay but also can we talk about the fact that the only times Maya ever said "hi dad" on the show was when she was talking to Kermit in Girl Meets the Forgiveness Project and then when she was talking to Shawn in Girl Meets Goodbye?!???!????!!!!??

*sniffle* .....I'm not crying, you are.

A Kiss Goodbye

A drabble written for a sweet little nonnie who’s having a bad week. I’m sorry about any ensuing feels.

Rated: G

Pairing: Riarkle

“So I hear things are leaning toward London.”

Riley lifted her head from the random spot she’d chosen to stare at to see a somber Farkle Minkus. “That’s what it looks like.”

He gestured to the spot next to her, “May I?” She nodded and he sat down beside her, looking like he had a million things to say, but nothing came out of his mouth. “Farkle, you know I never wanted this, but if my mom thinks it’s best -”

Farkle shook his head, “Riles, you don’t have to explain yourself to me. I know… I know how it feels.” At her questioning stare, he went on. “A few years ago… actually quite some time ago, in 6th grade, my father was considering something similar.”

Riley’s eyebrows shot up. “Why didn’t you ever tell me, us?”

“I didn’t want to burden you. I never… in the end it didn’t matter. Dad decided that it was in the best interests of the company to stay in New York… and that’s all she wrote.” His eyes were heavy with the beginning of tears. She wanted nothing more than to wave a wand and make them all disappear… but she knew from experience that there was value in crying. It’s the tears you never shed that mess you up.

“Why are you only telling me this now?”

He looked at her with guilt in his eyes. “I realized that I was being an ass.”

Riley cocked her head to the side. “Farkle, you could never -”

“I realized that I had had two options, and both of them could have hurt you, so I decided not to burden you with the depths of my feelings.” He sat and stared at his hands, unwilling to go on without prompting, so she took one of them in hers. “I love you, so much Riley Matthews.”

A small smile found its way onto her face, “And I love you, too, Farkle.”

“Let me… I maybe more than like Smackle… but I know I’ve always loved you. I think I might have loved you a full 7, 8 years before I could have possibly known what love meant. I’m still not sure that I know what love means.”

Riley stared at him, agape. If she’d known… or maybe she had. Maybe she didn’t want to know.

“That’s a lie, Riles. Love means home. Love means you.” After a pause, he smiled ruefully, “I haven’t really been fair to anyone, have I?”

She shook her head with a dry gulp. “You haven’t been fair to yourself either.”

“I stepped aside… but I didn’t. I was cowardly. You deserved to know.”

Riley grimaced. “I wouldn’t have known how to feel even if I did know. I still… You mean home to me, too, Farkle. And maybe more.”

At that, the tears actually fell from his eyes. “I think I would have preferred not to know. Now I get to know exactly what could have happened… I’m so sorry, Riles.”

She brought her hand up to brush away a tear, leaving it to cup his cheek. “I should have known, Farkle. I’m pretty good at pretending that I don’t know things deep down, if you haven’t noticed.”

He let out a broken chuckle at that, and brought a hand of his own up to hold hers against his cheek. “You will always be my first love, Riley Matthews. And forever my best friend.”

Riley didn’t quite know what to say to that and opted for an absence of words, leaning closer to bring her forehead to his.

Farkle opened his mouth to say something, but she closed the distance between their lips before he could.

When they pulled away, he grimaced and said, “At least I got a kiss goodbye.”

She gave a grimace of her own at that, but it melted into a genuine smile, albeit a sad one. “Parting is such sweet sorrow… that I shall say goodnight till it be morrow.”

He grinned and gave her a light kiss on the lips. “Just remember that this is Romeo and Juliet and Farkle. I don’t think the play is over.”

When the Boy Meets World finale aired, I was excited for the characters and confident that whatever happened in their lives they would do well or do good as the case may be, and those characters’ lives would live on even if I didn’t get to see it.

With the finale of Girl Meets World, I’m glad that everything worked out, and these characters don’t have to leave each other just yet. But I don’t feel confident in where their journeys ended at this point.

Just because I don’t ship Rucas, doesn’t mean I want the last thing they ever officially said together to be a near certainty that their relationship has come to an end. I want it to be more hopeful than that, even if it goes against my shipping preferences and has them saying they’ve weathered a storm and will be together forever. We can imagine all we want what came next, but I’d still like confirmation either way.

I feel the most confident about Rilaya and Riarkle, but I still want more. I still feel their stories have more to be told. And I want more for Lucaya, even if it never becomes romantic. I want them to be comfortable enough to have a friendship like Markle if that’s what is meant to happen. Or maybe Markle will become romantic. If Smarkle is meant to be, then I want to see them understand feelings more together. If Zayadora happens, then I want to see it develop. Zucas, Larkle, Zarkle, Lucadora, Zaya, Ziley, Maya x Smackle, Riley x Smackle (I admit I don’t know what some of these ship names are. I’m sorry.); I want all of them to have a chance in whatever capacity happens. I want to see these characters and their relationships continue to unfold. 

Whatever happens in these friendships and relationships, I feel there is more, and I want to see it.

So everyone let’s work together to Save Girl Meets World! It’s our bay window, and we’re not leaving it!

Life knows there's no replacement for her because no one cares about me as much as she does

Maya Hart being gay for Riley Matthews

[kat--writes]

Hi, I was wondering why did riley say "you shouldn't say that in front of smackle"? I mean in ACM riley told something very similar to farkle and smackle was there too...what do you think? (I love your Blog!!!l

Smackle was there, but Riley’s boyfriend wasn’t. And Farkle didn’t say I love you back in that scene. In Goodbye, the scene flips, Farkle says I love you while his GF is there. And to be completely honest, I have no idea why no one is talking about Farkle’s reaction shot to when Smackle essentially says “You’re not a threat”. Cause his face DOES NOT read “Riley is not a threat”. It reads the opposite, honestly. That’s the reaction shot that really killed me!

I'm never going to be over Maya Hunter.
