Maya's POV

~At Riley's~

"Ugh! We have been waiting forever when are they gonna get here!?" I say very impatiently to Riley

"They still have 5 minutes to get here Peaches, so calm down" Riley says in a calm tone

"5 minutes!? That is way too long! I'm gonna die from boredom!" I grump

"I think you will be fine" Riley puts her hand on my shoulder and smiles

"They are taking wa-" I am interrupted by the doorbell "Finally!"

Riley gets up and opens the door

"Hey, Lucas" Riley giggles

I roll my eyes and get up to stand next to Riley

"Hi, Riley. Hi, Maya" Lucas says

"You gonna come inside or just stand there?" I ask him sarcastically

He chuckles and walks inside. We all sit on the couch. Riley next to Lucas and me next to Riley.

"I am assuming Farkle isn't here yet" Lucas says

"Duh. If he was here this all wouldn't be so awkward" I say, motioning towards him and Riley

Riley blushes and giggles again

"Can someone call Farkle or something, I'm getting bored" I say

"He'll be here soon enough" Lucas says

"If he doesn't get here soon, I'm starting this without him" I say and cross my arms

"This is a group project, you can't just start without him" Lucas argues

"I'm Maya Hart, I can do whatever I want" I state

"You really can't" Lucas retorts

"Are you questioning my power?" I ask

*ding dong*

"Yes. Finally" Riley says quietly while getting up to answer the door

"Farkle's here and ready to work" I hear Farkle say as he walks in

We all go to Riley's room to begin on the project

Riley and I sit on the ground in front of the bay window and Lucas and Farkle sit across from us

"So. Alexander Hamilton" Lucas says to start things off

"We aren't just talking about him, we are talking about the Hamilton musical" I correct

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't realize we were talking about such a life-changing musical that no one even knows about" He shoots back

"You're an ass" I say

"Okay. Why don't we go over the list of things that Mr. Matthews gave us to talk about" Farkle says

"Whatever" Lucas and I say at the same time

"Number one. What hardships did Alexander Hamilton go through during the early years of his life?" Riley reads off of the topic sheet

"His father left him and his mother when Alexander was 10. Then, 2 years later his mom died of disease. So Alexander went to live with his cousin, who later killed himself. So Alex became an orphan." I say

"Wow" Farkle says while they all just stare at me

"Stop looking at me like that. All of that information is in one song from the musical. All I did was listen a few times" I defend myself

"Okay. Number 2. Who were the Schuyler sisters and what impact did they have on Alexander Hamilton's life" Farkle reads

"Elizabeth, Angelica, and Peggy Schuyler are the daughters of Philip Schuyler. Elizabeth and Angelica found Alexander to be an interesting guy. They both began to fall in love. They went into a triangle. And in the end, Alexander chose Elizabeth and they had 8 children together" I answer again

"We can't just let you do all the work, Maya" Lucas says

"Well it's not like you know any of this" I say

"Uh, you're right. But it isn't fair to let you answer every question" He says

"I'm fine with it. It gets the work done faster" I say

"Okay. Why don't we take a break and just hang out for a while?" Riley suggests

"Yeah. We could play some games or something" Farkle agrees

"What games would we play?" I ask

"Board games?" Riley says unsurely

"No. Board games are boring and childish. Let's play some party games" I smirk

"Maya. What are you suggesting?" Lucas asks

"Nothing to bad. Let's just start off with an innocent game of truth or dare" I say and smile

"Okay. But don't make the dares to bad" Riley says

Farkle and Lucas nod in agreement

"Okay. Riley, you start" I say
