Flea

Chapter Twenty Nine

Jiro hesitated, then plugged it in. Low and behold, they had their own personal speakers. A piano riff loudly began and Maeve clapped along with it. Everyone just stared at her in confusion. 

Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band

Maeve couldn't dance properly in the chair, but she inched up the aisles to the first verse. Everyone was pissing themselves laughing until they realised she was actually a very good dancer. 

Desmond says to Molly, girl, I like your face
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand

By this time she'd reached Midoriya's row and grabbed his hands, practically feeling the sweat through her gloves. Maeve didn't care, encouraging him to make shy movements that came close to what could be called dancing. 

When the chorus finished, she moved further on. 

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweller's store
Buys a twenty-carat golden ring

Maeve pulled out a coffee-stained napkin from her pocket, twisted it around her finger in the shape of a ring, and pulled it off again.  

Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing

She offered the ring to Bakugo and blew him a kiss. Everyone lost it. When he told her to 'fuck off' she couldn't even hear him over the music. However, incinerating the fabric sent the same message. Maeve twitched slightly but continued dancing. 

By the end of the song, she'd reached the back of the bus. Mineta gestured for her to join him with a glint in his eye. She incorporated pulling a middle finger at him into her groove.

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter

Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here 

Maeve slowly wheeled her chair back to the front, chatting with people along the way as various Beatle songs played. She had an incredible bop to Hey Jude with Kaminari, who shouted at her that she couldn't be a genius and talented at the same time. Maeve just shrugged in a clear response of 'what can I say, I suppose perfection really does exist.'

When Yellow Submarine came on the entire busload lost it. They began shouting along at a volume that caused Mr Aizawa to tap on the windows and test their strength. Smashing through them to escape was always an option.  

By the time they made it to the drop off point, everyone was far too enthusiastic. The class should've known better by then.  It was just giving Mr Aizawa all the more reason to make their lives hell. Maeve climbed gingerly out of the bus and peered curiously at the car already waiting for them. The location had been changed at the last minute for security reasons and the hero team dispatched to care for them were unfamiliar to her. Mineta rushed past her screeching about needing to pee. Maeve couldn't help but give a small grin in the knowledge of what was coming. It was at that point that Todoroki exited the bus. He saw her expression and immediately walked back inside, saying, "Now I think about it, I don't really need fresh air."  

Maeve pulled him out with a cackle and cried,

"Nonsense, it's good for you. Doctor's orders." 

From her gleeful expression, the entire class could tell something very bad was about to happen. Two women jumped out of the waiting car and introduced themselves in the most extra way possible. Maeve loved it. The conversation continued and just as they catapulted the entire class off the cliff, she cried, 

"Good luck! I'm not allowed to heal any of you!" 

The remaining group stood in quiet satisfaction for a moment.
