Lucas pov
"Sundance if the next words out of your mouth are is everything in place I'm going to punch you square in the jaw." Maya says glaring at me. I chuckle and say "okay can we at least go over the checklist again?" Everyone groans and Zay throws up his hands. "Seriously Luke? Everything is ready." He says pointing at the list I gave him.
I bite my lip and Farkle stands and pats me on the shoulder saying "it wouldn't hurt to double even triple check to make sure everything is in place." They groan and Maya throws a crumbled ball of paper at Farkle. "Okay Maya brings Riley to the bakery where Zay will come in saying I lost a bet to him and that I'm walking around time square in my boxers." Farkle says making Zay snicker.
"I don't know. Would Riley really believe dearest lost a bet to Zay and agree to that kind of embarrassment?" Smackle asks. Zay and Maya share a look and start laughing. "She would if I say he challenged me to a basketball game using "science" to help him win." Zay tells her eating popcorn. "Okay and what about your costume huckleberry? Maya adds.
I rub my neck and say "my mom is finishing it up as we speak." Maya smirks and says "oh I will pay anything right now to see you try it on?" I shake my head and say "nope the finished product will be shown when you get Riley there. What about the other thing?" Smackle gets up and makes a call. When she comes back she's grinning.
"All accounted for and everything they need. But you may have to go down there." She says checking it off her list. I stand and start getting a little nervous. "What if she doesn't like this? What if you can't get her to come down there?" I start rambling and Zay gets up and puts his hands on my shoulders.
"Luke take a deep breath Riley will show up. We all know she feels something for you. And I'm pretty sure when this is all over you two will be staring into each other's stupid eyes and ignoring the rest of us." I chuckle and everyone else laughs too but agrees with him. "Okay you're right." I look at the time and Maya's phone goes off. She sends a text and stands up.
"That's my cue. See you guys out there." She says grabbing her stuff. Before she leaves she punches me and says "good luck huckleberry."
Riley pov
I walk into the bakery and see Maya sitting at the counter. "Hey peaches." I say smiling at her. She gets up and looks at me weirdly. I giggle and say "why are you looking at me like that?" She smiles and says "no reason no reason at all. I like the dress riles." We order smoothies and I watch her as she keeps looking at the door and checking her phone.
"Maya are you okay? You seem jumpy?" I asks eyeing her curiously. She chuckles nervously and says "oh you know just waiting.." She starts sipping her smoothie and I keep looking at her. She still doesn't say anything and right when I was going to say something Zay runs in laughing.
"Oh hey Zay." Maya says smiling at me. I look at her confused and Zay says "do you guys want to hear the best Farkle story I can ever tell you?" I smile and say "what did you do to him Zay?" He chuckles and says "well it's not what I did as it was more what he is about to do."
I look at them and say "what is he about to do?" Zay smirks and says "well right at this moment our dear genius friend is about to walk around time square in his boxers." I gasps and stand up saying. "We can't let him do that!" Maya and Zay share a look and say "yes we can!"
I pull both of them up and say "let's go right now." Zay chuckles and says "okay but I need to send a text." He grabs his phone and reads his message and gives a wink to Maya. I look at both of them and say "okay what's going on here?" They look at each other and shrug. I stand with my hands on my hips and tap my foot.
Maya laughs and says "riles we have to go if we want to stop Farkle from embarrassing himself." I don't move and Zay's phone goes off making Maya and him laugh. "What's so funny huh?" I ask. Zay turns his phone to me and I see it's a picture Farkle sent of him in his boxers. I cover my eyes and say "oh my god! We need to get there."
We get down to time square and I look around for Farkle. "Maya do you see him anywhere?" I ask her she doesn't respond and I turn and she was gone. I look around and couldn't find her. So I call her phone. "Peaches where did you go? I thought we were looking for Farkle? And where did Zay go? What is going on?" I wait for her to respond but when she does I feel someone tap me.
"Maya where did you go?" I ask when I see it was her. She smiles and says "sorry Zay thought he saw him but it was someone else." I look around and say "okay where is Zay now?" She shrugs and pulls me right to the middle of the square.
"Maya what are you doing?" She keeps smiling at me and I was going to say something when all the screens turn off. I gasps and look around and see only a few people shocked by this. "Peaches.." I start to say when one by one the screens come on playing sixteen candles, the breakfast club and say anything.
I circle around looking at all the screens. They go black again and then different scenes of sixteen candles pops up. Followed by the breakfast club and say anything. I grab Maya's hand and say "peaches what's going on?" She shrugs and twirls me. I start giggling and was about to say something to her but she disappeared again.
I look around and suddenly I was surrounded by a group of people dressed just like they were in the breakfast club. I stare at them trying to move but they kept me in place. Then all of a sudden simple minds "don't you forget about me" starts to play and they start dancing around me. I giggle and start singing along to the music. On the screens they were playing the part where the principal is reading the essay in the end.
The guy dressed as Judd Nelson character grabs my hand and twirls me around. I stop and they keep dancing around tossing flowers. I looked around for Maya but couldn't spot her. The song ends and Karla Devito's "we are not alone" plays and they start doing the dance they do in the library making me giggle and do Molly Ringwald little dance. People started gathering watching the dance and I turn red.
The song comes to a close and I clap for them and they bow with the guy dressed like Bender lifting his fist in the air. I spotted Zay off to the side and was going that way when the screens turn black again and you can hear Molly Ringwald saying "Donger's here for five hours, and he's got somebody. I live here my whole life and its like I have a disease." I start laughing and watch as the screen plays different parts of the movie.
I turn back to look at Zay but he somehow vanished I looked around and didn't see him. I start to walk when someone grabs my hand and pulls me towards a seat. "If you were here" by the Thompson twins begins to play and another group of people circle around me. I smile when I see one was dressed like Jake Ryan and another like Samantha.
They dance and then the one dressed like Anthony Michael Hall comes and grabs her hand and dances like he does at the school dance. I couldn't stop smiling and giggling. They finish up the dance with them recreating the final scene. I found myself tearing up at it. The girl dressed like Samantha gives me the flower crown she was wearing. I thank her and they run off.
I put the flower crown on and look around wondering if something else was going to happen. I stand on the chair I was sitting on and look for anyone I knew. I was scanning the crowd when I spot someone lift up a boom box over there head. I shield my eyes from the sun and see that the someone was Zay.
My mouth opens wide and I see more people lift boom boxes over their head. I see one more in front and noticed they were wearing a trench coat like John Cusack in say anything. I look around again and spot Maya I smile at her and she smiles and winks at me. I see the screens start playing scenes from the movie again and Peter Gabriel's "in your eyes" plays.
I get off the chair but didn't see anybody approach me so I start walking. The song ends and everyone scatters and take off their coats. I get confused and see that they're dressed just like from Mary Poppins. I gasps and once again the screens plays the movie but more the songs.
I sing along and sway when they play "let's go fly a kite" I got a little disappointed when I didn't hear my favorite song. Maya walks up to me and is smiling dressed like Jane. "Maya what is going on?" I ask looking around. She shrugs and says "what do you mean honey?" Zay comes up and he was dressed like the dad.
I couldn't help laughing at his fake mustache and little hat. "Ello Riley!" He says attempting a British accent. I start laughing and say "alright what is all this?" Gesturing at their outfits. They still don't say anything and I hear someone call my name. I turn and see Farkle and smackle. Who you guessed it are dressed like the mom and Michael.
They stand next to me and Maya and Farkle link arms with me. I look at them but they look forward and just keep smiling. I was going to say something when I hear Lucas. "Can I have everyone's attention please!" He had on a long coat and was standing on a little stage I didn't even see them put up.
His face was on all the screens and Maya started bouncing. "There's a girl in the crowd that I lied to. I could have been honest with her but I was scared. So I ended up losing her in the process." Everyone that had gathered started to awe. I see Lucas scanning the crowd looking for me. He finally spots me and starts smiling and nods his head at me. I smile and give him a short wave and he continues.
"I was scared that she wouldn't look at me the same way if she knew and I wanted her to look at me just like she is now." He gestures to me and I see my face on the screens. I try to cover it but Maya and Farkle hold both my hands down. Lucas chuckles and says "She might not know this but I spent the last few days putting this together to show her how much I love her."
He starts taking off his coat and I gasps when I see what he has on. He was dressed just like Bert. "What none of you know besides a few is that this song is her favorite and it also happens to be her happy song. A song she sings when she needs cheering up." The music starts to play and Maya wipes the tears that start to fall.
I laugh and keep looking at Lucas. He puts on his hat and says "I wouldn't do this for anyone else, well maybe my little sister but this right here is for one person who I would give anything to see happy again. Plus I did kinda owe her this."
I giggle remembering him owing me a rain check. He takes a deep breath and starts to sing.
"It's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me achin' nose
The biggest word you ever heard
And this is how it goes, oh
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
All of a sudden he stops I didn't know if he was going to sing the whole song or not. But he takes off his hat and tosses it aside and someone brings him a different one. "What is he doing this wasn't the plan?" Maya says to Farkle. I look at them and then back at Lucas.
He had on a crown. "Look it says something." Farkle says trying to read it. I didn't have to read it to know what it said. I start laughing again and Lucas winks at me and continues singing.
He traveled all around the world
And everywhere he went
He'd use his word and all would say
There goes a clever gent
When Dukes and Maharajahs
Pass the time of day with me
I say me special word
And then they ask me out to tea
Oh! Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle diddle, diddle um, diddle ay
Now, you can say it backwards, which is docious-ali-expi-listic-fragi-cali-rupus
But that's going a bit too far, don't you think?
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it could change your life
Lucas pov
After I finished I bow and start looking for her. Everyone was patting me on the back and telling me what a good job I did but I wasn't listening I was searching for Riley. I finally find the gang but Riley wasn't with them. "Where is she?" I ask looking at them.
Zay pats my back and was going to say something but a older man comes up to me with his daughter. "That was amazing my daughter is a huge fan of Mary Poppins. Do you do birthday parties?" I was half listening and smackle says "I'm his agent let's talk." Maya tries calling her but she doesn't answer.
"Sorry Lucas." She says hugging me. I shake my head and hear my phone. I look down at the message and start smiling.
PrincessDancingSunshine-I think we should meet :)
"Guys I got to go!" I say running off. I hear Zay shout to them to follow me. I get to the park and look for Riley. I see her pacing in front of the bench we decided to meet at. I smile and walk up to her saying "Riley I'm sorry if I embarrass you out there I.." I didn't get to finish she threw her arms around me and kissed me. She let's go and looks at me and whispers "I love you." I kiss her again smiling.
We finally let go and she giggles. I cup her cheek and pull her back and kiss her again. She pulls away and says "I don't think we've been properly introduced." I look at her confused and she smiles holding out her hand. "I'm princess dancing sunshine but you can call me Riley." I chuckle and shake her hand and say "I'm MadDogg but you can call me Lucas."
There's my story hope you enjoy it. It was getting a bit long so I decided to end it there. There will be a epilogue. Happy reading!
