A/N : another chapter is up let's see what happens but first.
Disclaimer: I only own the plot and the ocs Gmw I'm not sure who owns it now actually, hopefully Netflix.
This update came early because of the guest who said update Asap.
Guest1: I findeed her character important so Vivienne needs to offer something to our beloved characters, and I pretty much love writing the bad guys. But she won't stay forever.
Guest2: I'm glad you liked the story, I know most stories put them together at the first twenty chapters but I want them to grow apart first, and well I pretty much love angst.
Joshaya forever: Josh doesn't like the nickname either.
And to overall the rest reviews because I really want to update the soonest. I know you think them staying in the apartment feels wrong but it's necessary. We grow up while fixing our mistakes. And to be honest I ship Riarkle now, but that's off the game. I have a huge plot for Lucas but I really like niley, and he will appear after joshaya is established.
"So what do you think?"
Josh and Vivienne had returned to the apartment after half an hour on a taxi and it was finally the time for the British to see her future home. They had just entered and Josh was curious and a little worried about Vivienne's opinion. He had a bad feeling although, he couldn't actually quite understand why that was.
"It seems alright for now" the tall brunette declared while her black eyes were searching through the living room.
"It's so second class, dearie. I will absolutely change that." Vivienne said and approached Josh's side. Josh clenched a little over his girlfriend 's words but kept quiet while they moved to the living room and kitchen. He kept thinking how could she find the apartment second-class when she had only see the hall.
As soon as as she saw the living room she almost screamed with disgust.
"Oh my lord help me." she kept repeating.
josh on the other hand after the first shock of her reaction was getting madder and madder by the picosecond, he tried really hard though not to show it.
"what...what's the matter? he muttered.
"ew , that red on the wall is so disgusting and absurd, were you on your right mind when you decided on this color Joshua? It's so out of style and bright. Uhh I can't watch anymore let's see the rest". She threw her arms in the air dramatically and started walking slowly to the other rooms.
She didn't say anything about the guest rooms or the bathrooms she just nodded or muttered under her breath leaving the young Matthews confused and not sure what to do.
They were ready to enter the main bedroom when Josh paused for a moment outside the door.
"this is my favorite room it's so special and I hope you love it as much as I do." with that said he opened the door and let Viv come inside first.
A moment passed before neither of them actually breathed when the tall girl burst into an obviously fake laughter.
"Lord, Joshieboo I thought you were serious about this being too you're favorite room." she waved her hair then while turning around to observe more carefully the whole room. That particular move was the one that always made Josh admire her and lose himself in her. But right that moment the frustration in him was enormous and a simple wave couldn't make him forget everything his favorite girl had said.
"Oh lord, what happened to this wall. Did you paint it yourself? " she said referring to the wall that Maya and him spent hours painting. And that was what made Josh snap for the first time that night.
"Look Viv, I told you this is my favorite room. And yes I painted it myself. And guess what" he said while his voice was getting louder than usual, "if you didn't like any of it maybe you should be here helping me."
Vivienne then turned her back to her boyfriend and started crying. Josh was totally confused wondering why was she the knee upset, so he took two steps closer to her with his arm extended thinking if touching her would be a good idea.
"Why, umm are you crying? "
"Im not crying" she said while sniffing
"But honey I hear you crying" Josh placed his hand on her shoulder and then she turned around and hugged him really tight.
" I'm here less than five hours and you are shouting at me. I'm here, Joshie-boo, I'm yours. And this house is supposed to be ours. But how am I supposed to make it feel mine if I can't put anything that I like. And your brother was cruel to me. And don't you want me to feel this like home? " she sobbed into his chest. A sob that anyone with a clear mind would recognize as fake.
"Darling of course I want to u to feel you are home. And my brother wasn't being cruel. He just has a bad sense of humor. Come on honey look at me." Joshua cupped her cheek and placed a lesson her temple.
"Come on let's get ready for bed" he then took her hand and guided her to bed. Soon they were both lying but only one of them was sleeping while the other was still angry with what happened
Meanwhile back in the exhibition couples were dancing like they were in a ball room now that half of the people originally there had and Shawn had gone home to check on the kids, Cory was having a conversation with Nick about history, Emily had taken Riley to the room and Maya was sitting by Topanga and they were both observing the men talking.
"You have understood what's going on right?" Maya smirked while trying not to think about Josh and apparently Vivienne.
"Oh please, I had understood that my daughter had a crush on some Nick before I even met him." Topanga replied while crossing her arms. "Tonight's just confirmation that he likes her too. And now it's your turn to observe and when they're ready to push if necessary, right fierce woman? "
"It's what a best friend does, Mrs M. You taught me that after all. " both women smiled
"So what's their story? " topanga asked.
"What's Josh's story? " Maya fired back. Topanga laughed " you will learn in less than twenty minutes. " as that was said the door opened once more and a young tall man entered the room. Maya smiled and topanga turned to see who made Maya almost blush.
"Excuse me" Maya said and headed for the mystery guy.
"Hello beautiful" he said full of charm in his grey suit.
"Hello to you too, hot stuff" she answered and kissed him. "How come Farkle let you leave?" she questioned.
"Well you see, my girlfriend is one of my boss's closer friends, thus I get some favors from time to time." The blond man replied while still holding her in his arms lightly.
"Ha, ha. Max I know Farkle would never use favoritism. So how did you manage? "
"We have this girl she was in surgery and now we are waiting for her to wake up, there was no point of me being there, so I said let's check out how amazing my girlfriend did." they both grinned and he kissed her cheek before she stated.
"My parents aren't here. But would you like to meet my second parents? " she questioned while dragging him towards Topanga. "Okay, we're have way here anyway."
Topanga was with Riley and Emily now listening what her daughter had to say about the room.
"Mrs Matthews I would like you to meet Max," she paused for emphasis "my boyfriend". Topanga gladly accepted the man's hand and was surprised when he pecked it.
"Nice to meet you Max. "
"Pleasure to meet you too, second mother of Maya's." he charmingly replied. They quickly got in a conversation getting to know each other with Emily and Riley joining in. Soon Topanga learn what he does, where his from, what was his family condition, how they met with Maya.
Cory and Nick were nearby but they were too absorbed to notice the new face, or at least Cory was, because Nick was glancing at Riley all night, and so was she. It was a real wonder how had Cory not noticed the tension between them. so soon, he decided that maybe Cory should meet Max too.
"Hey man, how are you? " he greeted max once they were close. It was about time Cory met Max.
"Mr Matthews, this is my boyfriend Max. Max this is Cory Matthews my teacher in middle school, high school and college actually and of course Riley's father."
Cory grinned awkwardly and said "I'm not supposed to do this alone. Where's Shawn? " everyone except for Max chuckled.
"Hello Mr Matthews, nice to meet to you. I've heard a lot about you. I would like to thank you personally."
"Why?" Cory questioned.
"Well you taught Maya what she knows and you helped her become who she is and I love that person. "
Cory then relaxed and actually chatted with the guy thinking to himself that he was okay for 'temporal use'. Maya on the other hand paled a little on the word "love" he was openly saying it and she wasn't there yet. She realised she couldn't do anything and she let it go for the moment.
Nick afterwards found the opportunity and approached Riley. "You are really beautiful Riley." he complimented her. "Thank you this is one of my favorite dresses" the young woman replied quickly.
"I don't think it's because of the dress." nick took a step closer. "You are just breathtakingly beautiful" Nick wasn't sure where did he found that courage for all of this but he was glad he did because now Riley was blushing like crazy.
The Matthews girl had never been flirted so openly and so honestly she might say. Nick was looking her with awe and she really didn't know what to say, that seemed to happen a lot around him. Then Nick extended his hand and asked her to dance as por una cabeza started to play.
They were both really happy to be this close to one another and everyone except Cory could see that. Soon Maya and Max joined the dance and so did Cory and Topanga.
In the middle of the song Max was informed that his patient was awake so he had to leave. And so did everyone else after a while they were all ready to go to Topanga's to learn what was going on.
Not long after everyone was at Topanga's, Katy and Shawn had arrived earlier so Katy had made tea and sandwiches for everyone. They sat on the couches and we're ready to talk.
"So who knows about this? " Maya asked a little too interested making Riley and Nick to glance at each other knowingly.
"We know." Topanga answered referring to her and her husband.
"Nick and I know too. " Riley pointed out and her father look at he two of them who sat rather close to each other wondering if they were something more than acquaintants, for the first time that night Maya also raised her eyebrows at the two of them.
"Exactly What's happening? What is the story you guys?" she pushed again.
"Back when Josh was in Barcelona he was in this program for photojournalism and there he met the lady you all saw" Topanga started the story.
"Vivienne de vil" Cory commented.
"Anyway, they started dating and meanwhile Josh found a chance to chase the job of his dreams he was in a programme to become an.."
"Architect.." Maya finished for her. Topanga surprised that Maya knew nodded.
"I know the dream." the Hart girl explained.
"Yes but Vivienne got an offer to work back at London."
"Not a great one, just an offer." Cory rushed to complete.
"And while they were dating only for two months Josh abandoned everything for her.. He didn't want to at start but she manipulates him somehow"
"She was supposed to come with Josh but she kept delaying her arrival. Josh told me so they were fighting over the phone, and as you saw her coming was a surprise for all of us and him too." Riley finished for her mother.
"That actually makes scence. Now I can get some things he was trying to say." Emily commented
"How did you know?" She turned to Nick. "Riley told me accidentally" he shrugged it off.
"But why keep it a secret? " Maya asked again. Nobody knew the answer to the question and clearly there was nothing more to be discussed about this matter so Cory decided to inform his best friend in the world about some other thing.
"Why did you keep your boyfriend coming to the exhibition a secret? " he fired back.
"What he was there? Who was he? " Shawn jumped up in his seat.
