I do not own Girl Meets World or any of the characters
Amabella was at home now, and she spit up all over me. Lucas was laughing at me as I tried to clean the milk off. "Shut it, Lucas." I rolled my eyes. I turned to Amabella, "And you, no more puking on people." I tickled her stomach.
"Go change your shirt, Revel. We have to get to school." Lucas walked over to Amabella and put her in the pack-in-play in the living room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked over to Maya and Riley to see Riley reaching up to the sky. "What she doing?" I asked Maya pointing at Riley.
"She's thriving," Maya didn't blink an eye.
I shrugged and walked into history class to see Missy flirting with Lucas. Oh so that's why he was in a rush to get to school.
I saw Maya walk in but immediately rush out. Definitely stalling Riley. Then I see Riley walk in, see Missy and Lucas and walk back out her mouth practically hanging to the floor.
Mr. Matthews walked in and as soon as everyone was seated, he started the class. "Sneak attack-- December 7th, 1941."
Farkle spoke up, "'A date which will live in infamy.'"
"A date?" Riley looked up looking distraught. "They're going on a date?" I looked back to see Missy still flirting with Lucas. "In Italy?"
Maya leaned over to rub her shoulder, "No, honey. You're in history."
"I'm history?" Riley asked.
Maya and I sighed. I tried this time, "Okay, put your hand up." Maya helped her raise her hand.
"Yes, Riley?" Mr. Matthews called on her. "You have a pertinent observation on the subject of the sneak attack?"
"May I be excused?" I whisper in her ear, and Maya pulls her arm down.
"My eyes see my shoes."
Mr. Matthews thankfully understood where she was getting at, "Yes, Riley, you may be excused."
"Forever?" She asked hopefully.
"No you have to come back at some point, honey." He said, "You just have to."
Riley dragged herself out of the seat and into the hallway. As she rounded the corner she could see Missy 'booping' Lucas's nose. I nudged Maya who tried to interfere, but it was too late.
"Boop?!" Riley marched in. "That's the best you got?"
Maya sat lower in her seat mumbling, "Please be cool. Please be cool. Please be cool."
"You don't think that I can do boop?" Riley continued.
I put my head down on my desk, this was not going to end well.
Maya turned around to face me, "How bad do you think this is going to be?"
I shrugged still watching it all play out.
"I can do boop like you've never seen." She turned around and yelled. "Boop!" When we looked at where her hand went, it instead of being on the tip of his nose, her finger was in her nose.
"Does anybody see this?" Riley asked, embarrassed.
Missy chuckled, "Everybody sees this."
"Take your finger out," Maya yelled at her.
Riley didn't move, "Can't. Can't move. Scared." I slapped myself in the face. "Do you think Lucas knows?" Riley continued. I banged my head on my desk trying to get this scene to stop.
"Riley, I've never seen anything like this before. I don't know what's going to happen." Maya shrugged.
"Farkle?" Riley turned to Farkle.
"Boy, Riley. I don't think I could do that even if I tried." Farkle stood up. "Hey, Maya, boop!" He too ended up with his finger up her nose. "Uh, oh."
"The bombing of Pearl Harbor was our official entrance into a world at war, and nothing would ever be the same." Mr. Matthews finished his lecture.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
That night Amabella cried her head off. I did everything I could think of. I fed her, changed her, took her on a walk, read to her, sang to her, watched T.V. with her. At least in the midst of her tantrum Lucas nor his mother or father woke up.
About an hour before I was supposed to get ready for school did she finally pass out from screaming and crying.
I drank three cups of coffee, but I was still running on one hour of sleep so when I fell asleep in Mr. Matthews class, I'm not surprised I got detention.
Mr. Matthews did allow me to get the nurse and sleep during lunch though, so I can't be mad.
Apparently something juicy happened at lunch and I missed it, and no one decided to fill me in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
In detention sat Maya, Riley, Lucas, and Missy. Ooh this must be the juicy gossip thing that happened.
"Okay guys," Mr. Matthew stood up after everyone was seated. "I like my detention to have a little learning in it. So we are going to continue learning about Pearl Harbor, and what happened after the sneak attack. The world was at war and alliances were forged in battle, and were made stronger because of that." Farkle ran into the room at that moment cutting off his lecture.
"Thank you Farkle!" I prayed.
"What is this place?" He asked.
"It's detention, Farkle. It's not for you." Mr. Matthews explained.
"If my friends are in it, then it's for me." Farkle took a seat next to me.
"During this war, the United States was put to one of its greatest tests, when it met a threat to our way of life but because we were united we prevailed."
Lucas smiled, and I caught on to what he was doing. "Hey Riley, Missy invited me to see a movie with her."
"I think she's aware of that, Lucas." Missy laughed. "No need to make her feel worse."
Lucas ignored her, "And I was wondering if maybe you guys would like to come along with us?"
"You want us?" Riley's usual smile grew brighter.
Lucas nodded, but before he could say anything Missy cut him off. "Uh uh, I'm sorry, Lucas. That wasn't the invitation."
"Oh!" Lucas acted surprised. "Well then, I'm sorry Missy, I can't go."
"What are you talking about?" Missy stared at him like a deer in headlights. "Nobody's ever turned me down in my life."
"Well, see these are my friends, and I don't like doing anything without my friends." He took a second to look at all of us. "Right, Riley?"
"Yeah," Riley nodded with him.
"Now I certainly appreciate your wanting me to care for you during a scary movie, and you showing me your leg and all, but back here in the seventh grade, I think maybe we'd have more fun just hanging out together."
"Boop!" Maya mocked her.
Missy grabbed her stuff and marched out of detention, "Grow up!" She told us before leaving.
"Not... yet." I yelled after her.
"Oh, she's leaving? Okay" Mr. Matthews shrugged.
"Hey," Riley turned to Lucas.
"Hey,"
"You know the easiest thing about having friends is?"
"What?"
"Sometimes all you have to do is trust them."
Mr. Matthews continued his lecture as if there was no interruption at all. "When peace time came the United States enjoyed its greatest period of growth, prosperity, and happiness."
