Blowed Up

Real Good!

Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here. This was inspired by Maya's enjoyment of stuff blowing up on the STEM episode which you can find on Dailymotion if you really want to suffer through the horrible lag. I'd still highly recommend watching it regardless on the Disney channel when airs. As I know I will.

Summary: When stuff blows up, one particular Blonde Beauty is insanely happy about it. Maybe a little too happy in Lucas' view.

In all the time Lucas Friar has known Maya Penelope Hart, there has been few things that has honestly scared the daylights out of the boy when it came to her. Like when she was as angry as a bee hive after getting hit by something or when she seemed so insanely happy when she caused something to blow up. Sure he loved blowing up stuff too as it always made him pretty darn happy but she seemed to take it to another level entirely! Such as one particular time when he brought his friends back to Texas during the Summer after eighth grade. During the ride to his Pappy Joe's house, a demolition had happened and it sparked something in the girl that reminded her of how she got such a huge heaping of joy in relation to things blowing up.

And ever since then she'd been hankering for the opportunity to blow up something. Now many attempts had been made to keep her occupied off of it and had succeeded in some way but every morning she still made the remark about the hope for getting to blow up something for that day. The Huckleberry couldn't help but find it hot where she was concerned even if it was a little worrisome. Riley hadn't really been much help either after the Shortstack of Pancakes had vehemently told her outright that her desire to blow up something real good wasn't going to go away until it happened. And Riley had pretty much been unable to see a way past her best friend's stubbornness.

Things would come to a head one particular afternoon when Cletus over heard Maya talking about it and figured he'd indulge her since it was the polite thing to do. That and the man loved to blow up stuff too whenever he got the chance! Plus it finally gave him a reason to blow up the old rickety barn on his family's property that no one really wanted to mess with for whatever reason. So Cletus brought the kids and Pappy Joe to the old barn and Maya got to learn a valuable lesson about dynamite and the huge smile on her face made Lucas feel pretty happy over it. And once everything was ready to go, Cletus asked the artist if she'd liked to do the honors and the girl happily said yes.

"Huckleberry, this is what dreams are made of." Said the girl happily as she looked down at the plunger just waiting to be pushed down.

Lucas merely rolled his eyes in fond exasperation but good lord if he didn't already like Maya so much as it is, this would certainly do it! "I think you're right about that ma'am. But would you be willin' enough to allow me to help you push that there plunger down?"

She looked at him in surprise as she hadn't expected that at all. And then the memory of that time with the volcano in the cafeteria came to mind and the reaction he had to it had been funny to see. "You know what? I think I'd like that very much."

And if her heart fluttered when he put his hand on top of hers? Well… He didn't have to know that just yet. Course had she known he was feeling something very similar she would have been quite happy to know of it. "One, two, THREE!" And together the Huckleberry and his Blonde Beauty pushed the plunger down and seconds later the old barn exploded loudly.

"WOW! HA HA HA HA! I LOVE IT!" Cheered Maya and Lucas was doing some similar hooting and hollering as well while Pappy Joe just laughed his head off over the sight of it while Cletus did a little dance of his own.

Zay just shook his head at the two with a smile on his face and he couldn't honestly wait to see his two friends become so much more. Riley and Farkle were both amused by the whole thing, although the genius wanted to be involved in the next thing to blow up since it looked so darn fun! But for Riley however, seeing her two friends dance around like a couple of crazy people and even singing at the top of their lungs. It was yet another moment she was witnessing between the two and a part of her felt jealous over it since she didn't exactly have that with Lucas. Yet seemed to at times with Farkle and that kind of confused her.

The daughter of Cory and Topanga could only hope that things would happen as they should. Even if she didn't exactly have a full on idea of what those things were lately. "And we burned it all to the ground cause it blowed up real good! Cause fire and blowing up stuff is fun, fun, fun!" Sang out the two dancing teenagers as the fires went on in the aftermath of the explosion.

As Maya had said, this was definitely something dreams were made of. And would always be a fond memory that the two would have together until the very end. Course for Lucas, there was always a smidgen of concern for just how much his favorite blonde loved to blow up stuff. But he wouldn't have it any other way.

Author's Notes: Ahh that was fun to write. Hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it! Course my lyrics writing as you can see isn't all that great but that's okay. R and R!
