[When Maya opens the door, she has a cauldron cake shoved directly into her mouth, and paints covering more of her body then skin itself.] "Hey Riwerly..." [She swallows her cauldron cake in one gulp. Something isn't right. No matter how much her best friend tried to cover things up, Maya knows. She always knows. But she can't keep her out in the cold.] "Come inside Honey..."

[ She smiles at her blonde friend, a hand on her stomach as she walks into the girl's apartment. It's messier than her apartment, the familiar smell of paint and hair products waft into her nose unlike the smell of books from her own.]

[With a simple wave of her wand, portraits she doesn't want Riley to see go flying away into cupboards and drawers. This moment will not be about her stupid, complicated dancing game with Lucas. Tonight would be all about them. All about her best friend, who clearly had a weight to unload.]
"Well, it's always lovely to see my honey" [She smiles] "Want a cup of Butter Beer?..." [She had managed to snag some in bottle form from a friend, but that's another story]

"Oh well in that case!" [She does a little dancing movement with her wand.] "Baba de, baba do- BA DUM" [With another simple flick of her wand, a cupboard flies open, and freshly prepared and washed strawberries begin to levitate towards Riley, until they hover in place, right under her nose] "Want any Strawberries?" [She shines a smile at her best friend.]

[ Oh, strawberries her favourite food.
The sweet scent wafted into her nose and before she knew it she was volting into the bathroom and puking out what looked like to be last nights meal. ]

[Maya ran into the bathroom. There was a time for magic, and a time for human contact. This was one of them. She gently held her hair back with one hand, and patted her back softly in circles with the other.]
"Do you feel better Honey?..." [She bites her lip in a concerned way.]
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 08:04 am (UTC) Re: Surprise!
[She doesn't care that her best friend has just been sick. Or that she could be "ill". Because she knows her best friend like the back of her hand. And she loves her. Without hesitation she embraces Riley in a warm hug]
"Is there something you want to tell me Riley?" [She asks softly into her chest.]
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 08:14 am (UTC) Re: Surprise!
"Honey..." [She speaks tenderly, but then she's swiftly holding her up supportingly as she helps her up the stairs. A simple flick of her wand, so she doesn't need to let go of Riley, and then they are upstairs. Sitting down in the bay window Maya has. Doesn't really hold a candle up to the one they used to have in Hogwarts, but it's home for them both now-a-days.]
[She cups Riley's face.] "Riles... I love you. You know I know it when you're trying to hide something from me..."

I'm going to ruin everything, Maya. I thought we were ready but then he had school and I had the internship but now I feel like I'm going to make his life harder.
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 08:23 am (UTC) Re: Surprise!
[And there it is. The only thing that can shatter Maya's heart truly into a thousand pieces. The sound of her best friend crying.] "Riley..." [She holds her gently once again, hugging her, letting Riley lean on her for support.] "I... I got you Riley..." [And she does. She always will.]
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 09:51 pm (UTC) Re: Surprise!
"Hey, I know one thing for sure, I'm auntie, right?" [Maya lets out a half laugh through a smile at her best friend] "listen Riley, you're going to be fine. Okay? I'm here for you, Farkle is here for you- your family will. We've all got you Riles"
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 10:00 pm (UTC) Re: Surprise!
[She lets out a gagging noise] "Excuse me while I go bring up three pints of Butterbeer..." [She shudders.] "You shouldn't be doing any Tango with anyone. Not even a salsa dance, waltz, or a third word for doing the do..." [She playfully remarks of course. Riley can speak to her about anything, at any time, for the rest of their lives]
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 10:12 pm (UTC) Re: Surprise!
[More gagging noises surface. She places her hand on her heart, and pretends to reach for the light] "Goodbye Curl world..." [The instantly stops and looks her deadly in the face.] "You wanna talk about Tangos? My first dance was in Hogwarts Stables..." [She gags automatically. Her eyes begin to bulge from her head] "But we don't tell people that..."
cottoncandyface on August 7th, 2016 10:24 pm (UTC) Re: Surprise!
I know, Maya. Lucas told me. And as unsanitary as that is I can't complain. I made out with Farkle on the owlery floor before we got together. It was for science.
penelopepeaches on August 7th, 2016 10:27 pm (UTC) Re: Surprise!
[Maya looks at Riles with great anger bubbling inside her]
"Next time I see that cowboy, I swear my foot has a SPECIAL place for him where it-" [But suddenly she's cut off by mid thought. Gazing questionably] "For science. Right. I bet that made for some pretty interesting graphs..."
penelopepeaches on August 9th, 2016 02:15 am (UTC) Re: Surprise!
[Maya wiggles her eyebrows] "She liked herself some Farkle & Riley Lovin' eh?" [She laughs after her playful remark] "She was nice, deep down. She really liked you, and was confident you two were already married..."
