She was at school. Alone. With Matthews being the only one to watch her and Zay being his backup along with the rest of the class. The bribed her in with the blueberry donuts, but it was well known that wouldn't last long. She already pre-emptively accepted the fact she was going to have detention. There was no Riley to mellow her out. There was no Lucas to hold her back. And Farkle knew better. He was looking at Cory confused as to why this was happening, getting a distressed shrug from the history teacher.
"Alright. Before anything, we've got a new student comin' in, today."
At those words, Maya shifted to hook her foot under Riley's chair, giving Farkle a look to tell him to do the same with Lucas'. No one was taking their spots. Even if those were the only two open chairs.
"Maya. Farkle. Put the desks back."
"Sir, what if we have Farkle time for the entire class? The new student can temporarily take my seat until we figure out somewhere else for him to sit, and you can sit behind your desk the entire time while I give whatever lesson I so please and believe fits whatever situation is going on today."
"Or we can introduce Hiro Hamada to the class, and do things like how I think normal classes work." The man got a look from his entire class "No? Alright, we'll play it by ear."
Maya finished the donut in hand, reluctantly pushing the desk back to its normal position, a glare still in her eyes at the man who treated her like a daughter. "I shouldn't even be here. Riles isn't here. You let her stay home."
"She's got food poisoning from lunch yesterday, Maya."
"Just introduce the new nerd, then, and let's be done with it." She looked to the door as it opened up for said student.
