A/N: With all the issues wattpad as I love it, and one of the main reason for that is that if you want to comment you have to have an account, allows you to comment as a guest. The reason I'm bringing this up is that I upload on too and recently after posting Girl Meets Couple Questionnaire I revived this comments from a Guest:

Rose is a bitch and your story is going to be trash without Joshaya.

OR

This story is TRASH! Who the fuck is Elisabeth?! Sorry, you dumb ass BITCH but Josh marries Maya so get it straight or get the fuck out here with this boring dumb as fuck bullshit of a story that no one wants to read.

I'm seriously wondering if they're the same people.

Thank you to the guests that said:

Delete the mean review. I do think Joshaya would have really added to your story but it is a road you for strange reason aren't going down but people don't need to be mean.

AND

Great job! I love that you have Josh marry someone other than Maya, mostly because it pisses the jerks and bullies (aka: Joshaya shippers) off. Do not let them tell you how to write your story. They obviously don't have enough brain cells to recognize that this isn't a Joshaya story, and not everyone worships Maya the way they do.

Basically, all I have to say about this is that if you are still reading this story and her a Joshaya fan, I already said a couple months ago this will have no Joshaya in it. If you have continued to read it that's not my problem. The fact that you took the time out of your day to call me names when you don't even know who I am just shows the type of person you are. And seeing that on this story as 6,366 views, 32 favorites, 24 followers on Wattpad it has 34,393 reads and 852 votes, it's also #1 in lucasfriar, #3 in MayaHart and FarkleMinkus, and number #11 in girlmeetsworld tells me people do read this.

Thank you for listening to me vent please continuing to the story.

ROSE

"What class does have at 1:20?" Amelia says as a way of greeting as I entered Topanga's.

I sat beside Maximo, smiling at him when he slides a plate of scones and a latte in front of me. "Thanks." I looked over at Amelia. "Riley and the others. Why?"

Amelia groans. "That's the class has as being the student teacher for this week. I honestly cannot deal with Rileytown more than once a day."

"She can't be that bag," Imani says. "I mean she's Rose's twin."

Amelia, Asher, Eloise, and Maximo blink profusely at her while August and I took a sip of our drinks.

"Riley and Rose are completely different people," Asher tells her.

August's head tilts. "Like yin and yang?"

I pop a scone into my mouth, before licking my lips. Yum, raspberry.

"No," Asher denies. "Ying and Yang together create a whole. Rose and Riley...I don't know how to explain it. They don't go together."

"Rose lives in reality, and Riley lives in Rileytown," Amelia states. I give her a warning look, and she snorts. "You know I'm right." my glare hardened. "Fine, I'll stop insulting your sister."

"Thank you," I tell her.

Just because I wasn't going out of my way to make sure Riley was happy it doesn't mean that I'll let anybody insult her, even Amelia.

"We should probably get going," Eloise says grabbing her back and getting up. "We don't want to be late for class."

I got up and walked over to the counter.

"Hi Rose," Ms. Hart greets me.

"I Ms. Hart," I greet back.

She places a coffee in front of me. "How many times have I told you to call me Katy."

"One more than the last time," I told her paying for the coffee. "Bye ."

I meet up with the others who were waiting for me at the front. Amelia and I separated from them and headed to school. After getting our books from our locker, we headed to history class.

Entering the classroom, I placed the coffee on Dad's desk. "Thanks, Rosebud."

"You're welcome," I tell him before taking a seat.

The rest of the day went by slowly until it was time for Amelia and me to head to the science lab.

"Hey Mr. Norton," Amelia greets.

I wave. "Afternoon."

"Afternoon Rose, Amelia," He greets back. "So told I'm going to have the two of you walk around the class and help the students out."

I nodded. "Kay. What experiment are they doing?"

"They're doing the ball drop," he tells us.

"Do you and Dad talk about your lesson plan?" I ask him.

He chuckles. "It sometimes feels like that."

After talking with for a bit her order Amelia and I to place the equipment on each station.

"Boo this class," somebody says from behind me, and I look back to see Maya and Riley entering the lab.

"Do you even know which one it is?" Riley asks her.

Maya picks up a beaker. "I'm going to need a clue."

Farkle jumps through the doorway; he was dancing all over the place. If it weren't for the fact that I knew Farkle loved science so much, I would worry of him breaking something.

"Doo dah, doo, dah, doo doo dah, da da da da da dah!" Farkle sings.

"Science."

Farkle walks toward the far end of the classroom, where Mr. Norton is standing.

"Morning, Farkle! What's new?"

"I'm reading this great book on anti-gravity. I can't put it down!" Farkle jokes.

"That was horrible," Amelia tells him.

didn't seem to think so. "Hah!"

Farkle points back at him. "Hah!"

The rest of the class slowly enter the lab and take their seats. Farkle joins Riley at her station while Lucas joins Maya at hers. Zay was sitting beside Sarah at there station.

"Before we start I would like you to introduce you to Amelia and Rose, Some of you may already know them, but for the next week they will be my student teachers as a part of a project I'm doing with my Pre-ap students," Mr. Norton tells the class. "The will be walking around the classroom helping anybody that needs help."

Amelia and I wave at everybody.

wheels a portable podium. "Ladies and gentlemen, I invite you to join me on a journey of discovery. Your midterm experiment."

The whole class except for Farkle groans.

Farkle has a big grin on his face. "Yay."

I walked over where Maya and Lucas were while Amelia stayed in the front.

"Do I look sleepy to you?" Maya asks Lucas.

"In front of you, each team will find a beaker of a clear liquid solution," Mr. Norton says.

"Oh, boy, he's like a sleep machine," Maya says.

"And next to that, and here's where it gets exciting - a mystery marble!" Mr. Norton was getting excited now.

"Goodnight!" Maya says following forward. Lucas catches her chin in his hand before she hits the table.

"Right after school, precisely at 3:15, one member of each team will drop the marble into the beaker. The elements in the marble will break down overnight and turn into sludge. Then the other team member will discover what that sludge is and what it takes to turn the beaker back to clear."

"Who's supposed to do what?" Riley asks.

"Well, that's up to you! You're a team! Divide the responsibilities as you see fit. I've been conducting this experiment for thirty-five years," waves his journal in the air. "I've kept thorough notes. Very few have cracked it."

Zay raises his hand. "Does that mean Amelia and Rose have done his experiment."

nods. "They and their partners were one of the few to crack it. That doesn't mean the can give you the answer. There only here for help."

"Well, you can add my name to your journal right now, sir," Farkle tells him.

I chuckled to myself. This was gonna be one experiment Farkle struggles with.

"I hope so, Farkle," Mr. Norton tells him before looking to the class at large. "Let the games begin!"

"Okay, you get that?" Lucas asks Maya. He was holding her chin in his hand.

"I have to do something?" Maya asks him discontentedly. She slowly seats up in her chair.

"All you have to do is come in this afternoon and drop a marble," Lucas told her.

Maya didn't look any happier. "I have to drop a marble?"

Lucas picks up the marble and holds it in front of Maya. "I will pick it up and hand it to you."

Maya looks at him horrified. "I have to take it from you?"

"That's it," Lucas tells her.

Maya was still discontent. "But how's my hand supposed to get to the beaker?"

Lucas moves the beaker to the edge of the desk. "You know what? Let's just move the beaker to the very edge of the desk, so you don't even have to lean forward."

"But I have to put this," she indicates to the marble. "in that?" she points at the beaker.

"That's it," Lucas tells her again.

"It's too much," Maya whines.

I decided it was time for me to step up. "Than you can fail," I told Maya.

"It's okay Rose," Lucas tells me.

"It's not okay Lucas," I tell him. "This is partner work. If one person does everything, then that person should get all the credit." I look at Maya. "Amelia told you stupidity was unattractive. Personal I think laziness is unattractive."

Maya glares at me. "You're not the teacher."

"Yes, but I can and will suggest to that Lucas get full credit and you get zero if you don't participate in this experiment," I tell her. I could feel her glare on my back as I walked over to .

"What was that about?" Amelia asks me on the way.

I wave her off. "Just Maya being Maya."

"Are you two free after school?" asks us. The two of us nod. "I'm gonna need you two to come after school and oversee the students that come to drop the ball."

"Okay," Amelia and I agree.

After school, Amelia and I sat behind desk as we waited for the students who were dropping the balls. As more and more people came in, I realized that none of the teams had understood the experiment. Shaking my head, I returned to my french homework.

I looked back up when the door to the lab opened, Maya and Riley walked in.

Riley narrows her eyes as she took in the fact that all the female partners were sent to drop the ball. "Now I see it."

"I see nothing unusual," Maya says.

Riley walks towards her station. "Social injustice," she proclaims loudly.

"Drop your marble and go," Maya tells her.

"If you drop these marbles, you are buying into a system where the women, what? Buy shoes? While the men learn the science," Riley tells all the girls.

Yindra nods enthusiastically. "Shoes. Let's go."

"The system works," Haley says.

Every girl except Riley and Maya drop their marbles into their respective beakers and head towards the exit.

Indignantly Riley turns to look at the girls leaving. "No."

The rest of the girls ignore her and run out anyway.

Riley turns back to Maya. "Maya, I am very disappointed in our sisters. They don't believe we can do what the boys can do?"

Maya insistently motions towards her mouth, "Chi, mi, chan, ga!"

Riley glares at Maya. Maya glares back for a moment, then starts to move past Riley towards her station. Riley stops her.

"You are not going to drop your marble," Riley orders her.

Maya nods. "Oh, I'm going to drop my marble. Riley shakes her head at her. "But, to make you feel better, I'm gonna drop it like a dude." Maya backs up a bit. "Maya!" she jumps as if catching the marble from a fellow teammate. "Takes the bounce pass!" she dribbles he marble around another station back towards Riley. "She dribbles down the court, three seconds left on the clock! Her opponents are tall, useless goofs! Maya fakes left," she turns right. "turns right -"

Riley cover's her ears desperately. "Just stop, tell me which way you're going!"

Maya throws the marble towards her beaker. "She shoots - " the marble lands in the beaker. "scores! Nothing but beaker." Riley cautiously lowers her arms from her ears and Maya motions towards Riley's beaker. "Your turn, goose."

Riley walks towards her station, she holds her marble up and examines it thoughtfully. She never dropped the ball.

Amelia looks up from her French book when they finally left. "Votre soeur est un idiot."

"Vous ne vous trompez pas, mais pour le moment, je m'inquiète davantage pour le pauvre Farkle. Il va avoir une attaque de panique," I responded.

The two of us cleaned up the lab and made sure all the experiments were running before packing up and leaving.


The next afternoon I waited outside the laboratory for Farkle.

He waves when he caught sight of me. "Good day for science Rose."

"Yeah," I hesitated. "Farkle I have to tell you something."

"Can it wait until after science class?"

I shake my head. "It's important Farkle."

He laughs. "Nothing is more important from science," he walks past me and into the classroom.

I sigh. "I tried to warn you." I follow him into the classroom.

"Doo dah, doo dah doo dah da da," Farkle sings pointing at the beaker of sludge on Sarah and Zay's station. "dah da da dah da da dah da da dah dah -"

Farkle turns to his and Riley's station and spots the clear beaker on their station. He looks at Riley in confusion. Riley gives Farkle an apologetic look as she holds up the marble in one hand.

"I -" Riley starts.

Farkle looks in disbelief at the marble, at Riley, and back at the marble, before his eyes roll back in his head and he collapses onto the floor.

We all look at Farkle in concern, but he immediately jumps back on his feet.

"What happened?" Farkle asks as Riley looked at him in relief. "I don't get it. Science is my favorite time of day. What happened? I'm gonna retrace my steps."

Farkle backs out of the classroom, while the rest of the class look on in trepidation. He repeats his dance from before. "Doo dah, doo dah, doo dah doo dah doo," he points again at the beaker of sludge on Sarah and Zay's station. "doo dah doo." he once again spot the clear beaker on his and Riley's station. "dah -"

Riley was still holding the marble up with an apologetic expression. "I-"

"Oh. That's the reason right there," Farkle says in realization before his eyes roll back in his head and he collapses onto the floor again.

Farkle gains back consciousness a few minutes later, he frowns in confusion.

Riley leans over him. "It all started with Eve. Women have been treated as second-class citizens ever since. Thank goodness for strong women like Queen Elizabeth and then Susan B. Anthony helped get women the vote, and then Betty Friedan wrote The Feminine Mystique, and then Riley Matthews refused to drop the marble and then here we are."

"You had one job to do," Farkle tells her exasperatedly.

"You mean take care of the babies, Farkle?"

Immediately Farkle jumps back on his feet, he stares at her wide-eyed. "What?" he turns frantically to Zay. "How long have I been out?"

"She's not pregnant Farkle, she's just dramatic," Amelia tells him from where she was standing beside .

Riley heads back to her seat at their station. "I'm taking a stand."

"How could you let her do this?" Farkle asks Maya.

"She's on a mission, Farkle," Maya tells him. "Have you met her?"

"You didn't even try to stop her," I tell say rolling my eyes and walking over to Amelia.

"Riley, you don't actually think Farkle had you drop the marble because you're a girl, do you?" Lucas asks.

"We were all girls, Lucas. Every single set of lab partners sent the girl," Riley tells him.

"Yes, that's interesting, isn't it?" speaks up.

"Why is that?" Riley asks him.

"I'll tell you what it is. It's a redo. She failed. I didn't fail." Farkle tells frantically. He falls to his knees and grabs 's leg. "I want a redo, man!"

Mr. Norton tries to walk across the classroom with Farkel still clinging to his leg. "No redo! Equal responsibility, one shared grade." Farkle let's go of his leg and stands up.

"That's right," Riley says. "We should be equal. Why do you guys think we're the ones who should drop the marble while you figure out the science?"

"Hey, it's not like you guys begged us to do it," Zay protests before turning to Sarah. "Did you want to do the science?"

Sarah shrugs. "I was okay with you doing it."

"Sarah, how is that going to help us?" Riley asks her exasperatedly before turning to the whole class. "How are we going to become scientists if we don't learn this stuff?"

"So I won't be a scientist," Hayley tells her.

"Why not?" Riley asks. "Nobody wants to be the first girl on Mars?"

At the back of the class, Brenda turns around, clutching a test tube in hand, and waves excitedly.

Riley points at Brenda. "Represent, Brenda! But one's not enough. Bay window." she says fiercely. "Bay window all of ya!"


AMELIA

Afterschool Rose and I headed to her room so that we could study for our history test together. Usually, we would do it at my place since it has fewer interruptions but Maximo and his swim team were hanging out over there. When we reached Rose's room, I stood there and stared at the new addition to her door.

"I can't believe that you got the contract you made Riley signed laminated and hung it in front of your door," I tell her.

"No, I didn't."

"Rose I'm looking at it."

"Oh. No, I had the fifth copy of the contract laminated and then hung in front of my door. I have the other four copies in my drawer, and I have the original hidden."

"You know you're awesome right?"

"Of course you do."

Rose reached for the knob on her door when Riley's head popped out from inside her room. "What are you two doing. I said bay window."

I barely stopped myself from laughing in her face. "One; Riley you don't control us. Two; we are not in your class, we have passed this experiment. We're not struggling like you are."

"Okay," Rose says grabbing my hand. "Into my room." she drags me into her room. "What is wrong with you? You've had a short-temper all week."

"I don't know," I tell her. And I didn't it's just recently that everything has been irritating me more than usual.

"Maybe you are pmsing," she jokes.

"Maybe I am. At least tomorrow will be interesting."

Rose lays on her bed. "Yeah, Riley's gonna instigate a "feminist" movement."

I lay down beside her. "What's with the air quote."

"Because being a feminist doesn't mean that all men are horrible, and evil, and think men are better than girls. And that's what's gonna happen tomorrow all the girls are gone be against the guys."

"Yeah... I'm gonna bring popcorn and soda to history class."

She turns to me and laughs. "Amelia you're awesome."

"I know."


ROSE

"Hi Daddy," I greet as I rushed into history class with Amelia. I placed his coffee on his desk.

"Did we miss anything?" Amelia asks before looking around and seeing the guys on one side and the girls on the other side. "Nevermind."

Amelia took out a bag of popcorn and a coke from her bag.

"We're gonna sit here today," I tell Dad as Amelia and I sat on his desk.

"All right," Dad says. "Does someone want to explain to me how we got here?"

"We were in science class..." Farkle starts.

Maya points at Riley. "She will talk."

Farkle holds his hands up. "I will listen."

"Okay, guys, calm down. Now, today's lesson is about the battle of Panipat. There were three battles of Panipat. The first was called, the First Battle of Panipat."

Riley walks to the center of the room. "You don't respect us."

"How can you possibly think that?" Lucas asks her.

"I call Farkle Minkus to the stand," Riley orders.

Lucas and Zay stand up at the same time as Farkle those. "You can't put him on trial, Riley," Lucas tells her.

"Why not? Didn't he make a judgment about me?" Riley asks them.

"We are really unprepared," Zay says.

Lucas pats Farkle on his back. "Yeah. See ya, buddy."

"This isn't just about Farkle. This is about all of you," Riley tells them.

Maya leans forward. "Yeah, Lucas. Didn't you tell me to drop the marble?"

"Yeah, I wanted us to do well on the midterm," Lucas responds.

Maya stands up and slams her hand on her desk. "Because you have no faith in my scientific abilities."

Lucas slams his hands on his desk. "Because you fall asleep in my hand."

"You tell her Lucas," I comment as I tossed a few popcorns into my mouth.

"Yogi made me drop the marble, too," Derby says.

"I can't reach the beaker," Yogi explains to her.

"I could have lifted you," Derby tells him.

"I don't like that as much as you think," Yogi tells her causing her to gasp.

"I'll tell ya who didn't like something. Vikramajit," Dad says. "The ruler of Gwalior in the First Battle of Panipat. He died. Didn't like it."

Riley stood toe to toe against Farkle. "By relegating me to a second-class marble dropper, you are stopping me from realizing my full potential."

"Riley, I'm just better than you at this," Farkle tells her.

"Farkle, if you were my friend, you would want me to get better. I like science. Why don't you want me to get better?"

"I do," Farkle tells her. "There's no situation where I wouldn't want that for you. Riley, I've always been your friend."

" I know," Riley says in surprise.

I had a feeling that Riley thought he was going to put up more of a fight, she forgot that our guy friends her amazing.

"I'm sorry," Farkle tells her.

Riley nods. "Okay."

"I thought some of you just didn't want anything to do with science, Zay says walking over to Sarah's desk. "Sarah, you just told me you weren't interested."

"It's because I don't stand up for myself!" Sarah yells at him.

"Well, I'm gonna hate to see it when you do," Zay says as he backed away from her.

"I wanna carry you around like a doll whenever I want," Derby tells Yogi.

Yogi grins at her. "Do it."

"A real friend doesn't let another friend fail," Farkle tells Riley. "Our failure isn't your fault, Riley. Our failure is on me. I should have had more faith in you."

"Speaking of failure, there will be a quiz tomorrow on the First Battle of Panipat," Dad tells the class. "It's not gonna be a good day."

Later that day in science class they boys were in one station the girls were in the other station and Riley and Farkle sat at their station.

I walked over to where the guys were stationed."Mud-like consistency, copper color, no clear separation of elements at boiling point." Lucas says as he stared through the microscope.

"No living organisms," Zay adds before sitting up. "Huh. Well, my official conclusion after thorough research and analysis, and try to stay with me now, 'cause this is very technical..."

"Yeah, how long you gonna keep talking?" Lucas asks him.

"Till the bell rings, 'cause I don't know what this stuff is," Zay responds.

"Yeah, uh, you know what that is?" Lucas says as he looks over at the girl's side where Maya had somehow got her sludge to start smoking. "How'd she get her sludge to do that?"

"Her sludge is mad at us," Zay answers. "Her sludge is a girl."

"Excuse me?" I ask him bringing attention to myself. "What is that suppose to me."

"You and Amelia are the only normal girls in here," Zay says. "'Cause for some reason the rest of the girls in this room her mad at us."

"That's because the rest of the girls her living in Rileytown right now, and believe that the reason you had them drop the marble was that you think you're better than them," Amelia says as she walks over to us.

"Hey," Zay greets her.

"Hey," Amelia greets back.

"Anyway..."Lucas starts. "Why would they think we're better than them? Rose and you are way smarter than me, and you guys are just as athletic as me. Why would I think that any female is less than me if when I have to example that girls are better than guys. Heck, I'm scared of you two."

I hug Lucas tightly. "I have the best big brother in the world."

"Can you go tell your sister that so that she can call of the army of female anger?" Zay asks me.

I look over to see Riley having a conversation with and Farkle.

"I think she figured it out," I tell him.

"Yeah well, can somebody help Maya figure that out!?" Amelia yells pointing at where Maya and the rest of the girls were about to sacrifice Yogi.

I squint at their makeshift volcano. "Does there volcano look like it's bubbling to you."

Amelia squints her eyes. "Yeah...it...does."

All of a sudden Farkle yells, "Goggles on!" he warns the girls before hidden under the desk. After the volcano exploded in there, girls face he came up from his hidden, please. "And dive under your desks. Did I not mention that?" Riley and Maya glare at him. "Yeah, I should've mentioned that."

In response, Riley and Maya poured a becker of sludge over his head.

When I arrived home after school, I headed straight to my room, opening the door to my room Atlas greeted me.

"Hey boys," I greet as I pat him on the head, I pushed him away when I noticed the dirty all over his body. "Why are you so dirty? Auggie!"

An equal dirty Auggie came into my room followed by an also dirty Ava.

"Why are you three so dirty? I ask them.

"Ava pushed me down every time I missed," Auggie tells me.

"And I also hugged him every time he didn't," Ava finishes for him.

"That doesn't explain Atlas," I tell them.

The two of them shrug, "He just like playing the mud."

I sighed. "Can you guys take him to the back of the apartment and wash him, please? And yourselves?"

"Okay," Ava says before patting his knee. "Come on Atlas is bath time."

Atlas barks at them before running out of the room. Auggie and Ava ran after him.

"Hey, Auggie!" I yell causing him to peak his head back into my room. "I'm proud of you."

He grins at me. "Thanks, Rosie."

"Auggie come on!" Ava yells from somewhere in the apartment.

"Coming," Auggie yells back as he runs after her.

I was about to close the door to my room when Riley opened the door to hers. She still had sludge all over her.

"Can we talk to you Rose?" Riley asks. "In here?"

"Sure. Just don't touch me," I told her before walking into her room. I sat down on the bay window between Maya and her.

"How did you pass the experiment?" Riley asks me.

"Riley you had Farkle as a partner, Farkle decided that he should do the science because it's what his good at. My partner decided he should do the science cause I was a girl. In his word "I was a girl, so I don't like science." Now that's a sexist pig, not Farkle. So I didn't drop the marble I just tossed it out the window. I asked if I could work on the experiment with Amelia who was having similar trouble with her partner, she ended up pouring the beaker water all over her partner. It wasn't long before Amelia, and I figured out what the experiment was really about."

"That still doesn't explain why you didn't sit with us girls in history class today," Maya tells me.

"Cause I didn't agree with the way you guys went about things," I told them. "It's not the guys' fault that you girls dropped the marble. I was there in the class none of the girls except for Riley wanted to do the science part of it. You didn't want to do anything Maya. And that's okay."

"That is not okay!" Riley yells at me. "She should be interested in science and math."

"Riley I don't like S.T.E.M.," I told her.

"What's S.T.E.M.?" Maya asks me.

"Science, technology, engineering, and math," I explain to her with a sigh. "Some people aren't interested in it, and I'm one of them. You can't force people into liking or doing something they're not interested in."

"Then what do I do?" Riley says.

"You have to encourage them to be the best in whatever they wanna do whether it is in the science or not," I tell her.


The final day of the experiment I was seating on 's desk written an essay for English class besides me Amelia was "The Power" by Naomi Alderman. When we walked into the lab that afternoon, told us that we could do whatever we want since today was going to be spent explaining the experiment. The problem was that with all the noise around me I couldn't focus on the essay, the fact that Amelia was so absorbed in her book with all the commotion around amazes me. I was mainly focused on Lucas and Zay over in the left side of the room.

Farkle walks over to them. "Still working on that?"

"We're never gonna figure out what this stuff is," Lucas tells him. "It might as well just be dirt."

"Yeah," Farkle nods. "You know what? It doesn't matter what it is."

"Hey, you might've failed this experiment, but we don't want to," Zay responds.

"I'm not gonna fail it," Farkle tells them. "My partner's got this."

At that moment Riley and Maya walk through the door. "Hi, guys," Riley greets.

"Oh, you're talking to us?" Lucas asks them.

"She is," Maya responds. "I go where she goes."

Riley leans over there desk. "You tell them yet, Farkle?"

"Nope. This is your marble to drop," Farkle tells her, before sitting at there station and patting the stool next to him.

"Yeah, I was waiting for you, partner," Lucas says as he walks over to his and Maya's station and pats the stool next to his.

Maya glares at him. "Did you just pat for me to sit down?"

"No. No no no no," Lucas was quick to say. "I was just patting for a better place for me to sit," he switches over to the other stool, he pats the other stool for Maya to sit. Maya smiles at him before sitting down.

"Wussy," Amelia mutters without removing her eyes from her book.

Behind Zay, the rest of the girls from class walked in. "Yah," Zay gasped. "They're all here. Aw, they came to cook us up in these little beakers and eat us and talk about us, and I don't like being talked about."

"We don't either, but we're gonna be the best thing we can be no matter what anybody says," Sarah tells him.

"That's right, Sarah," Riley tells her. "This is an experiment none of us should fail."

"And it's one of the most important ones we'll ever do," Farkle adds.

Mr. Norton enters the room from his bathroom break. "Well, we seem to have settled back into our original positions," he stays looking at the room in large and noticing that all the partners were back in there original place. He briskly walks over to Riley and Farkle. "Riley, Farkle, I believe just before things exploded, you were about to present some findings?"

Riley looks over at Farkle before looking back at. "In middle school, girls tend to drift away from science. Isn't that right, Mr. Norton?"

"It's been happening so many years; I started to keep a record," confirms holding up her book. "Not many figure out my experiment, but those that do have always benefited from the lesson."

"We let what happened in here come between us," Riley explains to the class. "It's sludge, and it muddies up what we think about each other. All of us have unlimited potential. Farkle and me, well... our beaker is clear."

"Because Riley didn't drop the marble," Farkle tells us.

"Why not, Riley?" asks her. "I felt like if I did, I would lose a part of me that was valuable. I like science, and I like figuring stuff out."
