(Maybe I’ll do summaries with more detail or write a few of them or something we’ll see)

YESSS I love this idea! Just a heads up this is gonna be really long and I’m doing riarkle, lucaya, and zayadora(If y’all wanna request head canons I’d be happy to do them!)

 so it’s junior prom and The Gang™ is all paired up

Lucas and Maya are finally together

Zay and Smackle aren’t dating yet but  they like each other and everyone knows

Riley and Farkle are together and in love but even if they weren’t in a relationship, Farkle made Riley promise she’d go with him to junior prom in the 6th grade

SO

Smackle decided to ask Zay to prom and she went to Riley and Maya for help

But Riley suggests the most EXTRA promposal ever with a hot air balloon and fireworks and it’s just too much and Maya’s like “idk go up to him with a pizza or something and ask lol”

So they’re no help

Then Smackle tells Lucas and Lucas is like “GET A HORSE!” 

And Smackle’s like “….. a what now?”

“HE HASN’T GONE RIDING SINCE LAST SUMMER! Don’t worry, I know a guy”

So Smackle’s like “yeah okay I trust you”

They get the horse and make a plan!

After baseball practice, Smackle walks the horse to the field and she’s actually so nervous she doesn’t know what to do and everyone’s reaction is just “awwwwwwww” which makes her more nervous

The horse has a sign hanging on its side “Zay, prom? Yay or neigh?”

And he freaks out because “THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER” and says yay of course

He gets on the horse and helps Smackle on

They ride around the field for a while

So cute

Now Lucas needs help

He knows he can’t overdo it or Maya will HATE it

But he also knows he needs to do something good because as much as Maya denies it she really does want a nice promposal

So he asks for help from everyone to make sure he gets it just right

He makes a group chat with Riley, Farkle, Smackle, and Zay

He calls Katy and Shawn 

He talks to her art teacher

All great ideas tbh, but he still hasn’t decided

Then one day Riley is watching the princess diaries and it hits her

She texts the group chat “LUCAS GET SOME PAINT AND SOME BALLOONS AND SOME DARTS I AM A GENIUS”

No one has any idea what’s going on but they do it 

And then when they’re setting up Zay goes “OH THE PRINCESS DIARIES! This is good”

So they set up a big white canvas and spell out “prom?” in white tape

They start setting up the paint filled balloons

Then everyone leaves except Lucas and he calls Maya and tells her to come over

And she sees it and she’s actually like really excited and she doesn’t suspect that he’s asking her to prom

So they’re throwing darts at the canvas and paint at each other

They run out of balloons and Lucas is like “okay you ready?”

And Maya’s like “for?”

He starts ripping off the tape and BAM he asks her to prom

She gasps has a huge smile on her face

“Is that a yes?”

“Ya-hurr Ranger Rick”

She loves it a lot and she keeps the canvas in her room

Now prom is coming up really, really soon

Farkle still HAS NOT asked and Riley is lowkey freaking out

Maya’s like “Farkle if you don’t ask her to prom soon I will end you”

“Maya I have this all under control don’t worry”

Farkle waits till Riley literally has the busiest day of her life

She has to work on a group project in the morning then a test a presentation another test and then a yearbook meeting

And then he makes it BUSIER and gets everyone to ask Riley for help

She’s Riley so she says yes to everyone 

She’s handing out fliers, taking Auggie from school to soccer, helping someone with homework, helping her English teacher organize some things in the classroom, helping her mom at topanga’s, dress shopping with Maya

She’s finally home at like 11 and goes straight to her room

Doesn’t even bother turning on the lights and plops down on her bed

Then suddenly

She feels light on her eyes and when she opens them

STRING LIGHTS ALL OVER HER ROOM 

THE WALLS, HER FURNITURE, THE WINDOW ALL COVERED

AND ON THE CEILING IN MORE LIGHTS: “PROM?”

And she’s about to call Farkle when she notices he’s already outside her window holding flowers

Obviously she says yes

Amazing

the five times he told her he loved her and the one time she finally heard him

I. he’s eight years old and riley is the only one in his class who’ll invite him to play. a little blonde girl is the captain of an imaginary pirate ship. riley claims to be the queen of the galaxy and asks farkle to visit him on her home planet. maya calls out to him and says he can get there in her ship which is equipped for both sea and space travel. when recess is over and the kids are lined up and farkle has a smile so wide he reveals his missing tooth. as they walk back to class, farkle taps riley on the shoulder. “riley?” he says. she turns around and replies, “yes?” “kids! quiet in the hallways, please!” their teacher reminds them. “thank you for playing with me. i love you,” he whispers.

II. he’s eleven years old and sits behind her in her father’s history class. farkle stares at the back of her head every day. he wonders if anyone else notices how bright and kind and wonderful she is. he loves her. he doesn’t know exactly what it means, but he loves her and he doesn’t care who knows it. “i’ve been in love with riley since the first grade,” he declares. and yes, she hears him but she’s not really listening. yeah, yeah, yeah; he’s in love with her. riley throws her hands in the air and thinks, why me?

III. he’s thirteen and he cares about her so much. she wipes away tears and hugs him. riley feels warm even on a night as cold as this one. he never wants her heart to break. he does everything he can to make sure it doesn’t. “i love you, farkle,” riley says. “and i love you,” he answers. and again, she hears him, but he knows she means as friends, so he means that too. she wipes her tears one last time before her date appears. farkle’s decided what to do. he’s putting her happiness first because he loves her; he really does.

IV. he’s fifteen and she might move thousands of miles away. he’s up all night thinking of ways she could stay. he tosses and turns in bed and knows that if she leaves, he’ll never be the same. the next day, he tells her he loves her: past, present, and future. “thank you, farkle,” riley says and then lightheartedly reminds him he has a girlfriend. he knows that and of course he cares about her. but when riley’s mom says they’re not going anywhere, absolutely nothing else matters.

V. he’s sixteen and they’re sitting on her bedroom floor. his girlfriend broke up with him and he was fine until he saw her with someone else. farkle swears he’s okay, but she knows him too well. it’s not long before she gets a real smile out of him. they sit and talk and talk and talk until their eyelids get heavy. the sun rises and the rays come through the window to wake him. riley’s head is on his shoulder and he’s careful not to move her. he’s never stopped loving her. “riley?” he whispers. she’s still asleep. “i love you, riley,” he says.
