This story is based in England.

Tutor times: A short session that tutors and tutees spend together. It's usually at the start of the day and lasts about 20 minutes. Schools see this as a settling in time and an opportunity to get basic school administration done, such as registration. There would be around 20-25 students in tutor time, ranging from year 7 to year 11.

George Not-Found- Year 10


"I'm thinking getting the meal deal.. But I also want pasta... What to do...What to do..." Sam mumbles as him, George and Callahan walk down to the school hall. 

"I'm getting pasta, personally" George says

"I might get the meal deal. I'm craving a cheese sandwich" Callahan signs as Sam looks at him concerned

"Ew why? Their sandwiches taste like 4 day old food" Sam signs, grossed out as Callahan shrugs and makes his way to the sandwich line.

"Where's Ponk?" Sam asks, as he looks around the food hall

"Probably in detention?" George shrugs

"Maybe?... I'll buy him pasta just in case." Sam says as both him and George enter the pasta line and chat for a bit while they wait to be served.


Obviously, Callahan had already been served and got his sandwich meal deal and waited near the doors as he ate his cheese sandwich.

After a few minutes, both George and Sam got their (and Ponks) food and walked together to their bench. Where they sit every lunch, since they were in year 8. And luckily for them, Ponk was already sitting on the bench, looking bored.


"We got you food" George says as places his pasta on the bench and takes his bag off, putting it next to him.

"Thanks guys. I had to stay behind a bit cuz of stupid Mr Green." Ponk scoffs

"Oh no what did he do this time?" Sam asks as he sits next to Ponk

"I didn't answer a question and forced me to stay till i wrote the answer in my book." Ponk says as he eats his pasta.

"Oh, yeah. Sam, remind me to pay for your pasta next time or remind me to give the money back" Ponk says as Sam nods.

"You can pay me back in some free chips tomorrow" Sam says smiling as Ponk also smiles and nods.

"I want free food" Callahan signs as he finishes his sandwich.

"You can if you buy me pasta one day" Ponk signs back, smirking 

"Fine. But I want my free sandwich once GCSE's finish" Callahan smiles as Ponk smiles and nods

"Why after GCSE'S?" George asks 

"So I can taste the sandwich of victory once their all over." Callahan smiles in pride as George giggles a bit.


They all finished their pasta and sandwich meal deals and started to chat before lunch finishes. 

Then suddenly, they see the school's football team walk to the schools P.E. hall. They all look and stare at the 11 football players walking back into the school. Some chatting amongst each other, some chatting with their friends who weren't in the football team but are walking with them.


"They look kinda cute in the school football uniforms." Ponk breaks the silence as everyone slowly turns to look at him

"What?" Sam asks concerned as Ponk sips on his water

"I'm just saying" Ponk mumbles as everyone is confused

"The question is who?" Callahan asks as Ponk thinks about it

"Probably... Foolish.. Or Clay?" Ponk says truthfully 

"Good choices" Callahan laughs after his sign as Ponk laughs as well.

"I wouldn't choose any" Sam mumbles as George looks over to him

"Who would you choose?" George asks as all attention goes to Sam. Sam starts to go red as he quickly glances to Ponk then looks at the bench.

"Um... Maybe someone like Fundy?" Sam mumbles

"Who?" George asks

"I think he's dating Clay?" Ponk asks as he shrugs

"But what about you George?" Sam quickly asks

"Myself" George says smugly as everyone roll their eyes

"Okay BUT if you HAD to choose..." Ponk pushes as George thinks about it.

"Maybe Karl? I don't know" George answers as everyone nods their heads. 

"I think you and Clay would make a cute couple" Callahan smirks as George goes red a bit

"Why?" George scoffs

"It gives off 'Golden retriever' and 'Black cat' vibes. You know?" Callahan explains

"I gotta agree. You guys might look cute together" Sam says

"George and Clay... Clorge!" Ponk says proudly as he suddenly makes a ship name for George and Clay

"Let's remind ourselves he has a partner already and they are very happy together"  George says seriously

"Yeah, but you guys would still make a cute couple" Callahan says

"No thank you. Not now and not ever" George says as the lunch bell rings and everyone makes their way to the next class.
