A/N: who else saw rebelde as a child? That is my favorite novela of all time, I was hooked. Roberta was my favorite. I saw that they have it on netflix and was like, I need to watch all these seasons all over again. Enjoy and sorry for any errors.

"Boarding school!" Katy Hart hissed in a hushed voice. "We can't send Maya there! She'll throw a fit, she'll burn the place down."

Kermit Hart crossed his arms, "It's a great school and its close to where we work. I think we should give it a try. I'll talk to her."

"You'll talk to her!" she scoffed in disbelief. "You aren't exactly her favorite person right now."

They both weren't, they spent way too much time working and making money. As the president of a successful oil company, and a famous Hollywood actress, their schedules were always full, leaving little time to spend with Maya.

"Have some faith. This will be a good way to get rid of her bad influences. Katy, she smashed through a food stand last week with her friends car."

That made Katy pause for a moment. Maya has been acting more rebellious lately, and getting into trouble with the law. Maybe a strict attitude was the solution. Kermit saw his words were getting to Katy.

"I just want her to be safe," he said as he puts his hands on her forearms. She shrugs his hands off and sat on the kitchen table. She shifted uncomfortably, why had she bought it if it's so hard? Oh right, rich and lavish lifestyle. "We can't let things keep going the way it is with her. She needs some discipline and fences set. Not the elegant ones we have set around our house."

"Okay, fine. As long as doing this keeps Maya out of jail and rehab."

Maya was completely clueless to her parents scheming all throughout summer. She spent her summer angering and dodging the law, slipping into parties at night, sleeping, and hanging out with her friends. Maya was pretty satisfied overall how she spent it. She was excited for high school too. Finding knew places to find where she could hide until school was over.

On the first day of school she woke up on time so she could get ready. Her mother barged in when Maya was scavenging through her closet.

"Sup mom?"

"Hey darling. How's it going, you excited?"

"Yup!"

Katy squirmed, thinking how she should approach this, but decided to just bulldoze through.

"Maya, honey, turn around," Katy requested.

Maya turned around, curious as to why her mom sounded worried. Katy carried a shopping bag.

"Here's your new uniform," Katy pushed it into Maya's arms.

Maya blinked owlishly, "Uniform?" Maya said incredulously. "They changed the dress code?"

"Yup," Kermit had thought it be best to avoid telling Maya until the last possible minute. "I'm also going to drop you off after we see your dad."

"Isn't he in our other house? I'm going to be late for school..." Maya thought about it. "Fine with me." Maya checked the uniform, she could make this skimpy.

"I'll see you downstairs," Katy walked out and breathed out a sigh. Maya wasn't suspicious.

Maya put on her black skirt, white blouse, and knee high boots. She put on the minimal amount of makeup and dabbed in some perfume. Her old book bag had held up for all middle school, it would see her through for high school. She put in there a folder and some paper with pencil, that should be good for half the school year. Maya texted her boyfriend and friends that she would be late.

Maya didn't like how big her mansion was: four floors, a basement, garage, an outdoor swimming pool, and race car track. The maids were paid to be friendly and support her outbursts, and her messes. The maids were fun to talk when they were gossiping and they're where Maya got her Spanish education from. Maya didn't feel as lonely when she was with friends than when she was home. Even with her friends Maya felt like she was just passing through life. The only thing that brought any real feelings, that filled her with contentment, was making music.

Maya walked out the door and cringed at the limo waiting. That would definitely not set her apart.

"Mom...we're taking a limo?" Maya groaned as Katy locked the door.

"Yeah, won't all your friends think of it as cool?" Katy grinned innocently.

They would be baffled because Maya said very little about her home life and made sure to hide her face when the paparazzi were on her front yard.

"Nothing screams privileged and spoiled like ridding up to school in a limo," Maya said sarcastically, "Do me a favor and drop me a block away. I'll just walk."

Maya ate her breakfast on the ride, not really caring if it fell on the lush seats. She would have preferred if they had taken one of their less attention grabbing European cars. Like really a limo was over kill. She put on her earphones and played Solomon's boneyard, her smile showed the delight she took in killing skeletons. She was so focused in the game that time went quickly, and when her mother tapped her shoulder, Maya was startled back into reality. She looked past the window and the hulking building didn't clear the fog in her head.

She turned to her mother for help, "Uh, this isn't dad's work place or our other house."

Katy nodded and stepped out of the limo, Maya reluctantly following. The driver passed Maya her Harry Potter school bag, and a map. Trepidation made Maya want to hide back in the limo.

"Mom?" She said in an accusatory tone.

Katy was grateful that nobody was paying them much attention, limo's were common at rich kids school. Katy twisted her fingers.

"My heart, your father and I decided tha-well...welcome to your new school," Katy cringed, that did not come out smoothly. Maya was closing up, her face becoming stony.

"You lied to me," Maya spoke quietly.

"You wouldn't have come here if I hadn't," Katy didn't reach out to touch Maya, she knew she would be rejected. She swallowed like their was a cotton ball lodged in her throat. "We bought you knew stuff to put in your room. I already met your roommate, she's a sweetheart. I'm sure you two will become great friends," Katy said with a fake happy smile.

Maya's mouth dropped, "I'm going to live here!"

"You can come home for the weekends. This is for your benefit honey," Katy said.

Maya huffed, crossing her arms, "Your words or dads?" Maya seethed.

"Here are the keys to your room. The female dorm is on the left side of the campus, fourth building, by the gym," Maya snatched the keys from her mom's hands and stomped away without a goodbye.

Katy rubbed her eyes, fully knowing that Maya was going to skip all her classes. The girl was so stubborn and rebellious. She gave a silent prayer to Riley and hoped that Maya wouldn't murder her by the end of the week. From what she had learned from Riley, her mom was a highly successive lawyer and her father was a teacher here. Riley was so sweet, soft, and open...Maya was the opposite. She should have searched for Maya's red sport jacket to make sure she wasn't carrying her pocket knife.

Maya had to scoff at this boarding school's level of security. It was fairly easy to sneak around and it was insanely big. Golf course, recreation area, gym, animal farm, four floors of library, gaming area, three computer labs, two pools, and tennis, football, basketball, soccer courts, they even owned a giant telescope. She checked out the schools art courses and it was pretty amazing, the only good thing about the school. The map was pretty confusing too, thanks to her mom blindsiding her, she didn't show up to inauguration day yesterday.

She found herself in a ranch with two animals, a horse, and a giant boar. Why did the school have a ranch and boar for? The boar gave her its backside and ate noisily. The horse was more kind and he let her brush her hand on its neck.

"Great, the person I like so far isn't even a person," Maya laughed mockingly and the horse snorted.

"It's the first day of school," Maya jumped, that was not the horse speaking. "Maybe if you were actually attending your classes you would find someone fun to talk to."

A tall, muscled, blond boy with blue eyes appeared out of nowhere and, oh God, he was wearing a cowboy hat. Maya couldn't help but think, rather sarcastically, that this would be an amazing love story; bright blue and leaf green eyes lock, the universe slows down, Cupid shoots his arrows, and the chivalrous cowboy changes Maya's dangerous ways. Love at first sight but they don't date until junior year, they get married and end up having four children. Gag, the only thing Maya felt right now was irritation for both of them. She should have been more careful and he could go mind his own business.

"Maybe you should take your own advice Mr. Integrity," Maya bite her tongue. He was going to snitch.

He put his hand on the horses face and petted him, "I'm a teachers aid," he informed her. "I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. Can you argue the same?"

Maya rolled her eyes, "I didn't want to come here in the first place!"

Mr. Perfect frowned, green eyes upset, "hey! He's beautiful...it's just been a while since he had a wash." The cowboy lovingly patted the smelly horse.

Maya stepped back, "I'm just going to go and leave you with your-" Maya tried to think of something, "- boyfriend. I'm sure you'll have lovely centaur babies."

She left before he could retort and went to find a good hiding spot.

Katy Hart had to step out to take a call. The director wasn't too pleased but Katy's manager said it was Maya's school. Katy had a good guess on why they were calling. She took a second to collect herself and then put the phone to her ear.

"Hello? This is Katy Hart?"

"Hello, this is the school secretary and I reg-"

"Is this about not being able to locate Maya?"

"Y-yes."

"She's ditching. You guys specialize in discipline right? I'm sure you can handle my daughter. I need to get back to work, call me if its a life or death matter," she hung up and went back to set.

Maya tried the library next, it was as good a place to hide as any. Maya had to respect the librarians, there were only three working but the books were all in order and even the old ones looked taken care of. There were four floor, two swirly stairs, a slide, and one elevator, where should Maya hide. Horror section! Old people hate horror, they don't want to die from fear.

Maya grinned and went to the deepest corner only to find she wasn't alone. A scrawny white boy, with extremely jelled hair was sitting down on the floor with a reading book, his legs crossed. Maya tried to back away but he already heard her and he looked up.

"Hey there," he said with a goofy smile, shutting his book, star wars. He was dressed in the school's white, red, and black uniform. His beady brown eyes made Maya feel like a frog about to be dissected.

"Can I stay here and you won't try to talk to me?" Maya asked the kid.

The boy dusted off the rug and patted down. Maya sighed and sat next to the kid, pulling out her phone to distract herself.

"I'm Farkle," Farkle introduced him and Maya put her phone on her lap.

"And I'm Roberta," She replied joking. "What did we say about not speaking?" She didn't even know if she had any classes with him, so she had no use of him if she couldn't get him to do her homework.

Farkle took out his learner permit and showed it to Maya.

Maya gazed at him with pity, "Your parents must hate you or have a terrible sense of humor."

Farkle shrugged and took it back "Your turn."

"Maya."

Farkle smiled, "Nice to meet you Maya."

That was it, no more questions. He went back to his book and the silence wasn't awkward. Maya had the feeling that Farkle was good at extracting most information from little interaction. Judging by his neat clothes he looked like he came from a good home and had a fondness for science. Maya wondered what he found out about her.

She left him when it was time for lunch and she lounged by the pool. They even had people to come and serve you drinks. Maya started to really like her school. During lunch Maya noticed the janitor fighting a vending machine, his keys abandoned. She didn't even think about it, impulsively pocketing them and leaving in the next breath. This was some nice access. Maya was able to get into the schools giant storage room. There was a perfectly good couch there calling for her. Maya took a nap there for the rest of the school day.

After, Maya texted her boyfriend and her friends. They were outraged that her mom had forced her to go to another school. Maya stopped responding when her friends called her mom a bitch. She sighed and went to the gaming area. It was crowded with guys, Farkle was there too, and he waved at her. The boys were floored when they saw Maya and of course let her play Mario kart with them. That's how she passed the next three hours. She got lost once trying to find her room, but a girl with another strange name helped her out, Isadora Smackle.

She found her room and let herself in. It was vacant of any roomie, two queen sized beds, two floors, down stairs containing the kitchen, beds, and desks, the second floor had the bathroom and closest. There was also a porch on the second floor. The kitchen had a stove, wonderful, she could really set it on fire, no wait, it was one of those safety stoves. Her roomie had already claimed her side of the room, the nearest to the door, and Maya went to snoop. The girl had photos of her family on her shelves, books, a teddy bear, and she favored the color purple. Maya examined the girls face, she looked innocent and had a sweet smile. Definitely the girl next door type. Something about the girls warm smile and chocolate brown eyes felt familiar to Maya.

Maya went to her side and there were shopping bags on the floor beside her bed. A card with her name done in bubbly letters was sitting on the bed. Her mom did not have that hand writing and she picked it up.

Dear Maya,

I hope you're fine with the spot you got, your mom picked it for you. I didn't see you after school and I went to go buy some food, I'll share with you of course. Make yourself at home. I can't wait to meet you. Love, Riley.

Love Riley? Was this girl serious? So much sugar! Gross!

"Unbelievable," Maya chuckled. "I'm going to be sharing a room with a wacko."

Maya went out to the porch and spotted the flower pot. There were four flower pots, the flowers prospering and happy. Angrily she grabbed it and hurled it out. There was a crash and a scared, girly, yelp. Maya ducked, and ran back into her room. Whoops. Maya hid in her room, hoping nobody saw her throw it.

The door unlocked and Maya looked up from her bed on the opposite side of the room. The brunette, Riley, walked in with grocery bags. She had pretty doe eyes and a soft face, a snow white vibe going on. Riley smiled cutely, Maya frowned in response. Maya would not like this chick.

"Hi! I'm Riley!" Riley put the grocery on the kitchen floor and offered her hand to Maya. Maya glared and Riley dropped her hand. "I didn't see you in our first class. Uhm, your mom showed me your schedule," she explained.

Maya snorted, her mom found her a babysitter, great. Maya changed her mind, she was going to make this girl's life difficult until she broke down crying. Riley fidgeted under Maya icy glare and it was a struggle to keep a smile on her face.

"Are you hungry? I'm going to get started on dinner," Riley walked upstairs, got changed, and came back down stairs.

Maya stared at the strange girl, was that a shirt about Pluto? Maya huffed, got up and took her new clothes upstairs to organize it. After about an hour of watching Netflix, Riley shouted that the food was ready. Maya wasn't going to lie, it smelled and looked good. Salmon, corn, and mashed potatoes, Riley apologized that she only had water and Capri sun. Maya happily ate it on her bed, she moaned at the taste. She had to reconsider being cruel to Riley.

Riley picked at her potatoes from the sofa, "Did you not like the house plant?"

Maya almost choked, "Sorry about that. I was just angry about this whole thing and I needed to act. I'm sort of impulsive," Maya blushed.

Riley smiled to show she was forgiving, "It's fine. The plant belongs back in the earth anyways. This is your room too so lets decorate it with stuff we both like."

Maya narrowed her eyes, "I worship demons."

Riley paled, "O-oh. Th-that's fine!" she gulped.

"I'm messing with you."

Maya blushed and chewed more slowly, Riley relaxed and laid back. Maya studied Riley more carefully now. Was Riley a pushover, a doormat? Maya felt a foreign stirring in her chest. Riley looked up and noticed Maya starring. She smiled and Maya knew she would have to stick close to this girl and look after her. Maya was okay with that, she did almost hit her with a flower pot so it was only fair she take care of Riley. Strangely enough Maya got the feeling she knew this girl.
