S4 E3 - Girl Meets Hero

*At lunchtime*

"Farkle?"
"Yeah?"
"Do it"
"Now?" I nod
"Yeah" he sighs, leaves his sandwich on the tray and sits next to Alice. I know that she and Elliot are starting to go out on dates so why don't have fun with it?
"Hey baby" he wraps his arm around her, making her frown
"Uh, hey Farkle. How are you?"
"I'm good. Listen. Tomorrow. Topanga's. 5 pm. What do you say?" Elliot chuckles
"Okay buddy" he slaps his arm away
"The only person she's going at Topanga's is me, got it?"
"Yes sir!" he sits back next to me
"I hate you" I laugh
"You did this in yourself" I notice that Lucas has been silent for a while now
"Hey, is everything fine?" he smiles at me
"Yes, I was just thinking about some stuff" I kiss his cheek
"What kind of stuff?"
"Well, I was thinking about how beautiful you look today" he starts kissing me. I love him so much
"You're so sweet" I whisper in between kisses
"Ew! Can you two stop?" I mentally roll my eyes at Missy. Why is she here? I simply ignore his and decide to straddle Lucas just to tease her even more
"Maya, come on. I bet Mr. Matthews is watching us and then tell Shawn" I groan in frustration and get off him
"Fine" I sit back down on the bench
"I love you"
"Love you too"
"I can't wait for tonight. You're gonna love the movie"
"Please don't tell me you picked a rom-com"
"Uhhh...no? No. I chose a horror movie! Like the ones you like" I laugh at his terrible act
"Okay, Huckleberry" the bell rings, meaning that we have to go back to class
"Maya, you haven't eaten your food" I look at it. Smakle is right. I was too focused on Farkle and Lucas to even eat something, thinking about it, I haven't eaten breakfast either.
"I'll just eat something later"
"Are you sure you're fine? You look so..."
"Dead" Elliot completes the sentence and walks up to me
"Let me check something" he rests his hand on my forehead and retracts it after a few seconds
"She's burning guys! Do you have fever?" I shake my head furiously in denial
"No, I'm fine. I have to be fine. I have an Algebra test now"
"I'm sure the teacher will understand if-" I cut him off
"No, I'm fine. Look..." I stand up quickly. Too quickly. My vision gets blurry and almost fall to the ground. Luckily someone catches me
"I've got you" Missy?! No! I'd stand back up if I could but I don't have enough strength to do it
"Let's take her to the nursery" After that I'm not able to hear, feel or see anything else, what's happening?

*Some time later*

"How is she?" I hear Riley's voice and open my eyes to see her and the others talking to the school's nurse. Wait, my Algebra test! I can't miss it!
"Is she gonna be fine?"
"Guys, I need you to calm down" I sit up and as I'm about to stand up she stops me
"Not so fast lady"
"I'm sorry but I'm late to-"
"Yes, I know. I've already talked to the teacher. He said that you can do it next week" I sigh, there's nothing else I can do, right?
"Maya are you okay?" Everyone rushes and gathers around the bed I'm laying on
"Space" the nurse orders and they take a few steps back
"What happened?" I ask
"You fainted" I frown
"Why?"
"Well, first of all you had very high fever. I gave you some medication so you should be feeling better. Then your friends told me about your sleeping and eating habits" she glares at me like a mom would
"Get your eight hours of sleep and eat something, got it?" I slowly nod
"Good. I've already called your parents to take you home. You need to take some days off and relax a little. I'm gonna leave for a while now" as soon as she walks out everyone hugs me tightly, including the Bradford sisters
"You scared us to death, Peaches"
"Sorry Riles"
"You haven't had a fever in ages, why do you have one now?"
"The lack of sleep and food deprivation debilitated her immune system" Smakle says proudly, she should become a doctor for sure. Missy walks up to me
"Promise us to sleep and eat regularly from now on" I frown
"Why are you so worried?" she gasps
"You fainted right in front of me! I didn't know what happened to you? I was afraid I was holding a dead body or something like that. I was worried sick for you!" Aw, that's actually...sweet?
"I'm fine everybody. Okay?"
"Ms. Hunter. Your parents are here" he barge in
"Are you okay, babygirl?" mom and Shawn start checking in me immediately
"I'm okay guys"
"How are you fine? You're burning! Come on, let's go home"

*At night, the Hunter's apartment*

Well, let's just say this is not how I wanted to spend my first anniversary with Lucas. I'm locked in my room. No books, no homework, no art. Just Netflix and bowls of soup.
I hear a knock on the door
"Come in!" Shawn opens it
"Hey, kiddo. How are you?"
"I've been better" he softly laughs
"I figured out you needed some company" Lucas comes in with a plate full of s'mores
"Hey" he sits next to me on the bed and I frown at my adoptive dad
"Why are you letting him here? In my room? Just the two of us? Alone?"
"Because I trust both of you. And you're sick so if you do something that requires saliva he'll get sick too" he smiles at us
"Have fun. But not too much" he closes the door
"Hey"
"Hi. I brought s'mores" I chuckle
"Yeah, I've noticed" he leaves the plate on the night stand and wraps his arms around me, hugging me from behind
"Happy anniversary" I smile back at him
"Happy anniversary" there's a brief moment of silence
"You know, I'd kiss you right now but I don't want you to-"
"Yeah, I wouldn't want that either" I sigh
"I'm sorry for ruining our anniversary"
"Hey, it's fine, you didn't ruin it. You know the only thing I need for a perfect anniversary?"
"What?"
"You"
