Thank Zeus for lunch by grades.
That meant I got to spend it with my bros.Robyn and I walked into lunch together coming from English, quickly finding a table for all of us to sit at.
"Quill, over here!" Robyn suddenly yelled getting up from her seat. I took it as a sign that Quill had walked into the cafeteria. Looking over in the direction Robyn was facing, sure enough, I saw Quill standing there. Heading our way with a familiar blonde not far behind.
It was the girl who had come into our class earlier to give Quill the pin they had dropped. After looking at the pin I had recognized the flag and took a mental note of pronouns.
Soon they both reached the table and sat down on the other side of Robyn.
"Hello again, sorry for the lackluster introduction earlier. My names Cherry it's nice to meet you guys!" She smiled as she held out a hand to shake mine.
"Nice to meet you too" I smiled and shook her hand, she let go to shake Robyn's as well.
"So, we're almost all here!" Robyn said to the table look twords the door again.
"Almost?" Quill asked lifting their head up to look to Robyn.
"Yeah! We just need Percy, my friend from art remember?"
"Oh, yeah I guess you did mention that. " Quill recalled and traced circles on the table in front of them.
Suddenly, someone popped up, standing in between where Robyn and I were sitting. "Hey Robyn." He said causing her face to light up as she look to her left.
"Percy!" She shouted in delight, getting up to give him a hug.
I got up as well, moving over a seat so that Percy could sit next to the only person he actually knew.
She let go of him and they both proceeded to sit down. "Sooooooo," Robyn began, "why don't we all go around the table and introduce ourselves. I'll start!"
She stood up, "My name is Robyn Ray, I'm 16, and I use she/her pronouns." Robyn sweetly smiled and sat back down looking twords Quill to go next.
I, however, was shocked that she had added pronouns to her introduction. It was nice though, because it was something that needed to be normalized to ask.
Unlike Robyn, Quill didn't stand up and just looked up twords Percy. "Quill Peterson, 17, they/them"
As soon as they had said their pronouns Robyn suddenly gasped. "Thats what flag it was! On the pin!"
"Oh, yeah it was the non binary flag." Quill said nonchalantly and looked twords the blonde next to them, signaling to start.
"Cherry Ann Seymour, I'm 17 years old, and I also use she/her pronouns." She smiled and it became my turn.
"My name is Mist Anderson," I started looking around the table at my new found friends. "I'm 17 as well, and I use she/her"
Last but not least was our newest friend, Percy. "Um, I'm Percy Hamilton, 17 as well, and I, " There was a pause, "he/him pronouns."
We all greeted him with a smile, since be was the main one the introductions were for and Robyn spoke up.
"Alrighty! Now that we all know everyone's name and pronouns, we should all start eating. As that is the point of lunch." She said pulled out a nicely wrapped packed lunch, the rest of us following.
The rest of lunch was filled with various conversations between one another. No particular topic stuck very long, yet the energy at the table was never lost.
Sadly all good things must come to an end. As the bell began to ring, those of us who brought our lunch packed them away while the others put away their trays.
Quill, Robyn, and I said good bye to the others as we headed over to our next class, which we all shared, Science.

I apologize if some of the ages don't make sense. I based it off my current age relevant to school and their birthdays.
Other than that I hope your enjoying the story so far!
(also sorry for the short chapters. I should probably make them longer 😞)
