The other Berry

The Mayan Apocalypse

Brittany skips down the hallway in your direction wearing a Santa hat. You raise your eyebrow at her before waiting at Sam's locker for him.

"Brittany. What are you doing?" Tina asked Brittany.

"Um, well, last week, I decided to watch a documentary about the Mayan Apocalypse, which arrives on December 21, 2012. So I decided to cash in all my savings so my friends and I could enjoy what's left of our lives to the fullest. Enjoy" she explains before nodding and walking off leaving Tina speechless.
She stops to talk to you before walking off again.
"Lillie, meet me in the auditorium at lunch so I can give you your present" she says.
Before you could deny the present, she had already skipped off.

You overhear Tina talking to Blaine.
"I got a car. A damn car" she exclaims.

You turn to Marley as she walks up to you with Ryder.
"Uh so weird thing, Britt gave me a Rolex. It's not even fake" she says before Ryder adds
"She got me a three-week vacation to St Tropez".

"Merry Christmas, everybody" Brittany shouts from around the corner.

You're sitting on a desk in a science classroom as Brittany sits next to you crossing her legs. Sam is at the front trying to prove something.

"Fact" Sam hits the chalkboard with a ruler "2012 is the year that Kim-Il-Sung, founder of North Korea, would've turned 100. Divide 100 by 10, the percentage of Americans that believe the world will end on the 21st of December, and you get 10 - Mexico's rank in the world as a tourist destination -" he says before spinning a board around to the other side, revealing scribbles, diagrams and numbers written everywhere. You raise your eyebrows at the amount of effort he put into this "-whose president expects the Mayan Apocalypse to attract 52 million people to his country. It's all right there" he says while slamming the ruler down on the table multiple times "All anyone has to do is look at the numbers" he says while sitting on a table infront of you.
"I'm terrified" Brittany admits to your surprise.
"And we need to purify ourselves for the last day of b'ak'tun, the 144,000-day cycle of the Mayan Calendar" he says, which you don't understand at all.
"Totally. We need to tell everyone we know how we really feel about them" Brittany suggests before Sam blurts
"Lillie, I love you. Brittany, that hat is amazing"
Brittany nods as you just stare at them both, not knowing what to say.

"You guys, welcome to the first meeting of the 2012 Mayan Apocalypse Club" Brittany announces standing infront of some of the glee club in the library. Sam is standing in the front with her while you're sitting behind Marley, braiding a strand of her hair.

"Wait, that's what this is?" Tina asks, rolling her eyes.
"Don't worry, it's also the last meeting" Sam says staring into space.
"Because we're all so close, Sam and I wanted to bring you here so we could finally tell you our true feelings about you. Tina, acting is a pipe dream for you, and your decision to pursue it as a career is both irresponsible and shocking-" Brittany begins before you interrupt.

"I fucking love this club" you mumble laughing.

"-Lillie, if you weren't dating Sam I would totally scissor you and introduce you to lord Tubbington, you're also a super great dancer and singer so well done. Joe, you haven't really made much of an impression on me, and I don't really know what your deal is."

"Wait a second. This is the worst club ever" Ryder interrupts making Brittany scoff.
"We're not gonna just sit here and let you insult us" Marley says before standing up, making the braid you did in her hair fall apart.

You throw your hands in the hair as you sigh.
"Aw, that was such a good braid though" you mumble.

"I wasn't gonna insult you; all I wanted to tell you was that I think you're delightful" Brittany admits as everyone walks off.
"Guys, you can't leave yet; you're gonna miss the best part!" Sam shouts.
"Okay, merry Christmas to you two" Jake shouts as he points to Sam and Brittany.
"Guys were not even gonna make it to Christmas!" Sam shouts back.
