PUPPETS AND PUPPETEERS (TVD and TW crossover) [1]

21) We get it, Derek use to be fun

(Same outfit as last chapter)

WHEN MADDIE GOT BACK into the room, story time immediately started.

"It all started when he interrupted her practice. She was a Cello player, she was playing in the music room with her friend, trying to get some practice in before band practice. He was a basketball player and his team was kicked out of the gym so they decided to resume their game in the hall." Maddie had closed her eyes to try and picture this. But things went a little too far.

Maddie opened her eyes and found herself in a classroom. The music room to be exact, and she had a Cello in her hands. What the fuck? She didn't know how to play the cello!

In the corner of her eye she saw a girl next to her. The girl was also playing the Cello and the two were playing quite well. This situation was pretty much the same as when she was reliving Erica's memories. She had no control over what she did, said or felt.

The racket down the hall outside the classroom was making it hard to concentrate and Maddie literally couldn't help but feel annoyed. "I swear, I'm going to murder them." Maddie found herself saying and the girl laughed sourly before the two started again.

Maddie saw the frustration on the girls face as she threw her bow down and stood up, storming towards the door. Maddie laughed and shook her head. "You go girl." Maddie mumbled before following her.

"Hey do you guys mind?" The girl called out and Maddie raised an eyebrow as the kid turned around with the ball. Damn he was cute. "I'm trying to practice." The boys laughed and Maddie huffed. "I would've said "Excuse me assholes, keep it down before I castrate you" but that works too." Maddie stated but no one was listening.

Maddie felt a strange liking towards whoever's mind she was in as the things they said sounded a lot like things she'd say.

"How do you know we're not trying to practice here too?" The cute boy asked and Maddie sighed, shaking her head. "Yeah, well, see me and my friend were actually practicing in the music room and i'm pretty sure basketball practice takes place in the gym." The girl sassed pointing to Maddie who made an amused "o" face with her mouth before looking to the cute boy for his reaction.

"Well, I'm pretty sure basketball practice takes place anywhere you've got a basketball." The boy retorted and Maddie sighed. "Boo! That was such a lame comeback!" She commented, disappointed before the cute kid bounced his basketball, dribbling up to the girl as she rolled her eyes and looked away until he stood right in front of her with a smug smirk.

"See?" He asked and she rolled her eyes, walking away until he stopped her. "Wait, hold on, hold on." He said making her stop. "If you can get the ball from me...maybe I'll stop." The girl turned around and walked over. "Come on" He started taunting as he bounced the ball. "It'll be easy." He said and Maddie facepalmed.
