Mystery Song [3]

-edited-

(Mayas p.o.v)

I go to pick up Riley from her house.

When I arrive she is puking her guts up.

Auggie explains to me "Maya I think Riley can't come to school"

I wasn't that  suprised. I want to be with my best friend but I don't want her to get sicker than she is.

Just to amuse myself I fake pass out. As soon as I hit the floor Auggie Mr.Matthews and Topanga scream

"NOT YOU TOO!" At this I laugh and get up.

Mr Matthews instantly sends me away to school.

The train ride was lonely. No Riley no Crazy Hat, no Lucas. What happened to everyone?

I walk into class early. Huh, this never happens. And as I'm standing in the doorframe an unknown 'entity' almost knocks me down. Instead of falling like a complete moron and embarrassing myself in front of a whole of five students I just stumble a little then do jazz hands. I turn around to meet my attacker, it was just Brandon.

"You alright there little miss Michael Jackson?" He asks with a hint of amusment in his voice.

"A-okay" I respond in the sweetest voice I can while giving him my best death stare. Brandon took a step back and put his hands up in surrender. At this I smiled and walked to my seat. At that moment I realized people were staring at me. Hmmmm, I thought of something to say.

"Hey I know I'm little miss Michael Jackson but don't expect a performance." As if it couldn't get any more awkward.

I sit back down and the rest of the class fills in. The bell rang but Matthews was still missing. I feel a tap on my shoulder and turn around.

"Howdy cowboy"

(Lucas p.o.v)

I walk into class and hear these words
"....Michael Jackson but don't expect a performance."

Well that's odd.

I sat down in my unassigned assigned seat behind Maya when I tapped her on the shoulder.

"Howdy cowboy" she said in her fake Texas accent which I have to admit, is kind of adorable.

"So when are you gonna do the moon walk Michael Jackson?" I ask and hear rebel kid, behind me, laugh.

"In time dear huckleberry, in dear time." she says in a sing-song like voice.

Right on cue the Mr. Matthews walks in.

On the board he writes 'Pearl Harbor.'
"Who knows what pear harbor is?" He asked. Everyone's had shot up expect for Maya.

"Maya, can you tell us?" Matthews asks. She grunts in response.

"Japan bombed an American naval base?" She asked.

Mr. Matthews nodded.

I don't think anyone noticed but Maya's face lit up a little. Was it because she got the answer right? I couldn't tell but she seemed happy.

The rest of the day went on as usual.

I walk into the cafeteria to our normal table. I'm greeted by farkle Maya and zay. Maya goes on to explain how Riley has the stomach flu or something and how she couldn't come to school.

We started talking and laughing then all of a sudden Maya pulled out a notebook and pen and started scribbling down words that I wouldn't make out.

"What are you doing Maya Hart?" Farkle asked. At first Maya didn't bother to answer. But then she shortly blurted out

"Must. Remember. This. Song. MUST." Sometimes random song lyrics pop into Mayas head and she goes crazy trying to figure out the song.

The guys and I let her do her own thing because when she gets like this, god knows what she'll do to you. The next bell rang and we walked up the stairs to class.

*time skip to dismissal*

(Mayas p.o.v)

This is bugging me so much. I can't figure out what this damned song is for the life of me. I did the usual. Trying this verse with other verses. Nothing sounded right. This is it. This would be my death.

That afternoon I had plans to meet with Brandon at the library for our project. I closed the notebook and went to the library.
