Meeting the world

Chapter 50

Lucas's pov

~

Farkle was back to normal. I don't know what happened that made him turn back into the Farkle we all know and love, but it didn't matter. The important thing was that he was back.

We all headed to art class. As the bell rang, I noticed Maya was actually in class on time. Of course I wasn't suprised, this was art class. She was never late for art, it's the only class she liked.

We all took our seats and Ms Lawrence stood up.

"I'm sad to say that, unfortunately, there will be no more art class."

I saw Maya look up from her sketch pad, a look of loss in her eyes.

"What?" She said.

Ms.Lawrence looked sadly at Maya.

"I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it..."

Maya stood up abruptly.

"No...no, no, no, no. This can't happen. This is the only class I actually enjoy. You can't take this away from me."

So that's who the man in the suit was. And that's why Ms.Lawrence looked so said when he whispered something in her ear and handed her the envelope. He was telling her that art class would be cut.

Ms.Lawrence looked like she was about to cry.

"Maya, I tried I really did. But we can't find any other art teachers to take my place and-"

"Take your place?"

Ms.Lawrence sighed.

"Yes. I...I'm moving. And the school board said that if they couldn't find another art teacher than they would shut down the art program. And that's what they're doing."

Maya shook her head angrily.

"No."

I felt so bad for her. I knew how much she enjoyed art class. It was the only reason she was still coming to school after everything that happened this past year.

"I'm sorry, Maya. But we still have 2 weeks together."

Maya sighed sadly.

"No...I don't want 2 weeks. I want a whole school year. You know, this is the only class I actually enjoyed right?"

With that, she grabbed her sketch pad and stormed off.

Riley, Farkle and I followed her outside. We wanted to comfort her.

"Hey Maya...it's okay." Said Riley sitting next to her. I sat on her other side and Farkle sat next to Riley.

"No it's not. Nothing seems to be going my way. I...I lost everything."

I shook my head.

"No, Maya. You didn't."

I looked at each of my friends. Farkle with is giant mop haircut, Riley with her goofy smile and Maya with those beautiful blue eyes.

"You have us."

The year was coming to an end. Even after all the drama of the year, everyone seemed happy now.

Morgan finally got a job. She was the school's art teacher. She seemed happy, and she made art class really fun.

Cory and Topanga seemed happier than usual. Riley would later figure out that that's because she's going to have a baby sister.

Farkle realized that he was falling for the wrong girl. He finally gave up on Maya. He and Riley had their first kiss on the last day of school, and officially became a couple.

As for Lucas and Maya, well let's just say their story isn't quite finished yet. Maya is being stubborn and pushing away her feelings. Of course, that's nothing a cowboy can't fix. He actually proposed to her on a horse, but we are getting a little ahead of ourselves here. That's in about 10 years from now.

There's a new guy in town that's seems to have a crush on Maya. Yes Lucas gets jealous. He also gets arrested. But these are all stories for later.

You see, our four friends still have a lot ahead of them. But I think you've heard enough for today. There's always time to tell you about everything that's going to happen. But for now, I'll just leave it at that.

THE END...FOR NOW.
