I know I haven't posted in a while but I've been busy. Sorry! I'll try to update faster next time. Maybe one chapter a week? But don't hold me to that. Anyway, here's my story.
Disclaimer: I do not own Girl Meets World or Boy Meets World. And frankly, I'm glad I don't. 'cause I would totally ruin the show.
Maya's POV
The next Monday, we were in class again. Mr. Feeny was giving us a list of 'exciting extra curricular activities'. Yeah right, like I was going to do an extra curricular activity. But he was making us choose one anyway. He started listing the (boring) activities to the class.
"Vocabulary club." He said.
"Ooh that sounds fun!" Riley whispered to me. I just gave her a look.
"To exciting." Shawn commented sarcastically.
"Mr. Matthews, please."
"It wasn't me it was Shawn." He said with a smile. Why is he smiling?
"Same thing." Feeny said waving it off. "Alright, uh Debate Team."
"Where's Smackle when you need her?" I said to Riley. She giggled.
"Wow you guys have friends with weird names." Cory said.
"SCUBA Club." Now that, I might try.
"SCUBA Club?" Cory asked getting excited.
"Underwater adventure?" Shawn asked getting into it also.
"What was your first clue?" I asked them sarcastically.
"I love you." Shawn said adoringly looking at me.
"Oh shut up."
"I'm in." Cory said.
"Me to!" Shawn agreed.
"Well I for one plan to stimulate my intellect and will therefore chose between the vocabulary club and the debate team." Minkus chimed in from the front.
"Like father like son." I whispered to Riley.
"I would enjoy communing with the creatures of the sea. I chose SCUBA." Topanga said.
"Slap me in a wet suit and throw me overboard." Minkus said. Wow. Minkus really likes Topanga. I pictured Riley and Farkle as brother and sister. Now that would be weird.
"Can anyone tell me what the acronym 'SCUBA' is?" he pointed at Cory. "Mr. Matthews."
"Duba?" he questioned sarcastically.
"SCUBA duba?" Riley asked laughing.
"Mr. Matthews I have obviously failed you on so many levels." He turned to the front of the classroom. He then went on to explain what an acronym is. Boring!
"So now can anyone tell me what SCUBA stands for?" Feeny said. "Come on! Someone take a stab at it. Ms. Hart. You haven't spoken all class. S-C-U-B-A. What does it stand for?"
"Something's Creepy Under Boat, Andy." I said to him. Riley smacked her forehead and Shawn put his hand up for a high five while saying "yeah!"
"No." I said to him declining the high five. Mr. Feeny just let his head fall.
"Mr. Matthews was closer with the duba. Very well take it away Mr. Minkus." Feeny said.
"No." Minkus said quietly.
"I beg your pardon?"
"I don't wanna know everything. I wanna fit in; I wanna be one of the normal, stupid guys. I'm going with duba!"
"Oh give me a break!" Riley outburst. "Its: Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus." Whoa when did she learn that?
"Very good Ms. Matthews!" Feeny said happily. Just then the bell rang. "Thanks you!" Feeny said to thin air.
So we all signed up for SCUBA Club (and by all I mean Shawn, Cory, Topanga, Minkus, Riles, and me) and the next day we all met in the cafeteria. Cory, Shawn and Topanga were already there. Cory and Shawn were playing with the equipment and Topanga was talking to so girls.
"…you can totally see things growing down there. Sup Maya." Shawn said when he saw me. He went to lean against the table but missed and fell over. Riley, Cory, and I giggled.
"You know, I was meant for this underwater life." Cory said as Shawn stood up. "'cause I am…" he took of his robe. "…SCUBA Boy!" Shawn started laughing and so did I.
"SCUBA Boy?" Riley said smiling.
"What?" he asked Shawn who was still laughing.
"Man, Cory you are the whitest white boy I have ever seen."
"Oh, yeah? Lets see what you got."
"Think I'm afraid to take my shirt off?"
"Yeah that's what I'm thinking."
"Hey I got nothing to hide."
"I'm thinking that to."
"Just take your shirt off already!" I exclaimed getting annoyed. Shawn turned to me.
"Yeah well let me worn you, I've been working out." He turned around and took his shirt off. He was wearing a shirt with fake muscles on it. "I have pumped me up!" Riley and I laughed.
"How come you're wearing a shirt?" Cory asked.
"Well 'cause other wise, I look like you." He said taking his shirt off.
"It's not very evolved to ridicule the human form. Each of our bodies is the master creation of mother nature." Topanga said walking up to them. Wow she really does have a lot of hair…
"Well, except for Minkus." Shawn said. "He was created by mother goose." Minkus took his robe off to reveal a wet suit. A bright green wet suit I might add.
"Anybody ready for a dip?" Minkus asked and then walked toward us.
"Yup and here it comes." I commented said.
"Maya!" Riley yelled at me. I just shrugged.
"Minkus you look like a stick of juicy fruit." Cory said and then turned to Topanga. "You wearing a wet suit to mother nature?"
"No." she said and took her robe off. She was wearing a one piece bathing suit. But that pattern though. Seriously?
Cory and Shawn just stared at her.
"What's the matter? No funny remarks?" Riley and I walked over to stand next to them and saw Cory glance down at her suit and back up to her face.
"Uhh you got anything?" He asked Shawn not taking his eyes of her.
"I got nothing." Shawn said.
"Uhh you got anything?" Cory asked again, still looking at Topanga. It was actually kinda cute. He lost his train of thought because of her.
"Snap out of it! She's just a girl in a bathing suit. Plus Maya looks way prettier." He looked over at me with a flirty look and back at Cory who was still looking a Topanga. "Insult her." Cory went to say something but then didn't.
"No from now on I'm going to be insulting you." He said finally looking away. "I mean, Maya obviously doesn't like you and yet, you still try to flirt with her. What's up with that?"
"I agree with him." I said pointing to Cory.
"Topanga," Minkus said coming over.
"Yes Stuart?"
"Your beautiful." He said with a smile.
"That's very sweet, Stuart. My superficial side thanks you." She and Minkus walked away.
"What is Minkus doing?" Shawn asked.
"I don't know. But he's doing it better then us."
Shawn walked over to me.
"Maya, your-"
"No."
They started talking about gifts their fathers had given them and Shawn was playing with more equipment. He inflated whatever he was playing with and Minkus came back over.
"Have you taken leave of your senses? You could endanger the safety of yourself and others. No touching the equipment until the dive master gets here."
"Ya who is this dive master anyway?" Riley asked.
"I don't know." I said.
"I don't care who it is, as long as it gets us out of school, underwater and away from Feeny." Cory and Shawn high fived and then in walked Feeny. Of course. Cory and Shawn screamed.
"Yes Mr. Matthews and Mr. Hunter I'm a certified dive master and have been for years."
"Well that's a plot twist." Riley said. I laughed.
"Now," Feeny said continuing. "the first rule of diving is never dive alone. Therefore I would like each of you to select a partner to be your diving buddy." Shawn immediately came over to me.
"Maya. Be my partner." He said suavely. I was going to say I was Riley's partner but she was already over by Cory. Ah man. Now I have to be.
"Oh ok. But no funny business." He smiled then noticed Minkus and Topanga.
"Oh how cute. It's the little mermaid and aqua nerd." He said to them. I started laughing.
"That was a good one!" I said high fiving Shawn. Wait, what am I doing? He's going to think I like him now. He smiled at me. "No." I said turning away.
"Now one of our first drills will be buddy breathing. Where you share your regulator and breathe through the same mouth piece." He went on to demonstrate. Oh great.
"Did you brush your teeth this morning?" I asked Shawn. I really hope he did.
"I'm not sure. What day is it?"
"Ew. Riley! Can we switch partners?"
Later that day, after are SCUBA experience, Riley and I went back to the orphanage.
"Hey Riley! Maya!" Carly said to us as we walked in the door. We both said hi back and walked to our room.
"So Riles, what do you want to do today?" I asked as I flopped onto my bed.
"Oh I don't know, maybe, homework? No I have a better idea! We could try to find a way to get home." Wow. She is not in a good mood.
"Woah, Riley, calm down."
"I'm sorry. I just really miss my family. I really want to go home. I mean, its great here and all and I like seeing what it was like growing up when my parents did but this is just still to weird."
"I get what you're saying but if this is anything like the movies, we'll end up waking up in the hospital in the real world at some point. For now, get to know your kid parents. This is an opportunity like no other. Take advantage of it!"
"Oh ok I'll try to have a better attitude." Just then there was a knock on the door.
"Maya, there's someone here to see you." Carly said as Riley opened the door. On the other side was Shawn. Oh great. This is just what I need.
"Shawn? How did you find us?"
"I'll leave you guys alone." Carly said walking out.
"Well I followed you home from school." He said walking in. "You guys didn't tell us you live in an orphanage."
"You are such a creepy stalker." Riley said with a smile plopping onto her bed.
"Sorry, I was just wondering if you guys wanted to come over to Cory's house. I was just going to crash their dinner."
"Ehh, why not. Got nothing else to do." Riley said standing up and walking over to her shoes.
"Okay, lets go." So we walked over to Cory's house. We talked about random stuff and every time we passed someone on the street Shawn would go; "ya that's right, I got two girls." By the time we got to the Matthews' house we were all laughing our heads off. Shawn knocked on the back door as Riley and I settled down. We saw Eric through the door making motions with his hands.
"Hey what's wrong with Eric?" I asked as we heard Mr. Matthews tell us to come in.
"Yeah, hi Eric." Shawn said opening the door. "Good to see you to."
"Hello Shawn, Riley, Maya." She said nodding to each of us as she said our names.
"Hi Mr. and Mrs. Matthews." Riley said. This must be so weird for her.
"Is Cory here?" I asked as Shawn shut the door behind us.
"No, of course he's not Maya, uh, as you well know Cory's at Shawn's house having dinner."
"What?" Riley asked.
"Right! Right." Shawn said catching on to what Eric was saying. "Cory is at my house and I did know that. Eric would be correct there."
"Well then why are you here?" Mr. Matthews asked.
"Why am I, as in me, us," he said pointing to us, "here?"
"Well, you see Mr. Matthews," I started, using my lying skills. "Shawn remembered that he invited us to go to dinner also so he came to get us. And we were walking by your house to see if Cory was still here so he could walk with us also. By the way, I'm Maya, friend of Cory's." I said shaking his hand.
"Pathetic.
Morgan said from the table.
"Who you calling pathetic?" I asked her. You do not call the queen pathetic. Riley held me back as Shawn started talking.
"No, no its not pathetic. Its not pathetic for us because, we're not in this family so, I can leave." He said turning toward the door.
"And so can we." I said walking out also. We walked outside and I realized Riley wasn't with us. "Riley, you aren't in this family either so let's go."
"Oh right. Sorry for bothering you." She said as I pulled her out.
"That was yet another impressive lie Maya." He said shaking his head in approval and putting his arm around my shoulders.
"Put a sock in it." I said shoving him away. "Now what do we do?" I asked Shawn.
"We are going to the YMCA."
"Why are we going back there?" Riley asked.
"'Cause Cory wouldn't just walk out on his family like that with out a reason and I think I know why he did it. But we gotta hurry. Come on!" he said starting to run away. Riley and I followed him.
When we got there, after sneaking in, we saw Cory suiting up and getting ready to go in the pool.
"What is he crazy? Your not suppose to dive without a buddy." Riley said walking closer.
"Oh hey guys! What are you doing here?" he asked taking off his mask.
"We went over to your house but you weren't there so I thought I'd know where to find you. By the way, your parents are onto you."
"What? Oh no I gotta move quickly." He said putting his mask back on.
"Wait, Cory, what are you doing?" I asked him.
"I lost this necklace that was really special to my dad while we were SCUBA diving and I came back to find it."
"Wait, you lost those silver gloves your dad gave you for your birthday? But that was really special to him. Shame on you." Riley said. Oh man, she just said way to much.
"Uhh yeah, that's exactly what I did. How'd you know?"
"Uh, I heard you talking about them." Nice save. I gotta give her props for that one.
"Anyway, I'm going in."
"Wait, Cory. Why don't you check the filter first." I said trying to be the voice of reason.
"That's a great idea Maya! Thanks!"
"Don't mention it." I said sarcastically.
So we checked the filter and found the necklace. Cory got unsuited and we escorted him back to his house. His parents started to punish him for not telling them that he left so we decided to leave. Shawn walked with us back to the orphanage and we said goodnight.
"Well that was interesting." Riley said taking off her shoes.
"Yup. I just wonder what tomorrows going to be like."
"Me to."
