Meeting the world

Chapter 40

Farkle's pov

~

Oh god. It was February 13th. That meant that tomorrow was Valentin's day. And it's the dance.

Another night to spend by myself, while everyone is out with their date, dancing.

I sighed as I put my books in my locker, and got my stuff for Mr Matthews class.

Maya popped up next to me.

"Are ya ready for the quiz Freakle?" She asked.

"Of course." I replied. "Are you?"

"Pfffft. No." She laughed. "I'm surprised I even knew there was a quiz."

I nodded, not looking at her, still taking my books out.

"Yeah."

She close my locker violently.

"Hey. What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

She looked at me, waiting for me to tell her why I wasn't into it today. No way I was telling her it was because i didn't have a date to the dance.

"I'm just tired okay?" I pushed her away from my locker and re opened it.

She pushed me back.

"Don't piss me off. Missy Bradford already managed to do that." She said angrily.

I shook my head.

Not Missy Bradford. She was the number one flirt in the school, besides me of course. She has been arch enemies with Maya ever since they met last year.

"Just ignore her. She isn't worth it."

"Ugh whatever. That bitch can do what the fu-"

"Maya. Language." Said Mr Matthews as he walked by, a clipboard in his hands.

"Me? Swearing? I would never sir!" She said innocently.

I laughed. Ever since Maya started living with the Matthews again, she and Cory had developed a love/hate relationship.

"Did you study for my quiz?" He asked, already aware of the answer.

"No." She smiled.

"Of course."

***

The quiz was a breeze. I finished so quickly some people were still on the 3rd question when I handed in my paper.

Maya stared at her paper blankly.

"Hmmm. That's Martin Luther king. Right?" She whispered.

The question read :

"Who was the first president of the United States?"

I sighed.

"You should study next time."

She ignored me.

"Bill Gates is the dude on the one dollar bill right?"

This time I ignored her.

She was pissed.

"Mr Matthews!" She raised her hand. He came to her desk.

"Yes."

"Please talk to Farkle. I think he's on his period."

I groaned. She needed to shut up.

"Maya just-"

Mr Matthews silenced me.

"Maya do your quiz." He looked at her answer sheet.

"Do you honestly think that word war 2 was cause by who would get the last piece of cake?" He asked her.

"Well I heard there's really good cake in some parts of America."

He sighed.

"You're something."

Yes she is.
