: ̗̀➛ The bell rang sharply through the halls of Maplewood Middle School, signaling the start of lunch break. A swarm of students burst from their classrooms, eager to escape the confines of their desks. Among them were Sasha, Thavel, and Y/N, three inseparable friends who ruled the seventh grade with their shared laughter and dreams.

Sasha, with her kind eyes and warm smile, was always the one to cheer up anyone having a bad day. Her kindness extended to everyone, from the shyest kid in the class to the new student who didn't know anyone. She had a way of making everyone feel included, her laughter a warm, inviting sound that seemed to brighten even the dreariest of days. Sasha loved art, often sketching scenes of their school life and their future dreams during lunch breaks.

Thavel, though she had a sharper edge and a cunning sense of humor, was fiercely loyal to her friends. Her wit was as quick as her temper, and while others might have found her intimidating, Sasha and Y/N knew the depth of her loyalty and the warmth she reserved for those she cared about. She often acted as the group's protector, ready to defend them against any slight, real or perceived.

Y/N, ever the mediator, balanced the group with his calm and thoughtful nature. He was the voice of reason, always able to see both sides of an argument and help his friends find common ground. Y/N had a deep love for history and storytelling, often sharing fascinating facts or spinning tales that captivated his friends. He was the one who reminded them of their shared dreams and kept their spirits high when times were tough.

The trio spent their lunches together under the big oak tree in the school yard, a spot they had claimed as their own since the beginning of the school year. It was a place where they felt free to be themselves, away from the pressures of schoolwork and social hierarchies. There, they discussed everything from the latest comic books to their future careers, their conversations flowing easily from one topic to the next.

"One day, we'll all be teachers," Sasha declared one sunny afternoon, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She had just finished sketching a picture of the three of them standing in front of a school, each holding a book.

Thavel laughed, a rare genuine sound that contrasted her usual sardonic tone. "Sure, Sasha. We'll be the ones making the rules then. Imagine that!"

Y/N nodded thoughtfully, a smile playing at the corners of his lips. "Yeah, and we can make school a better place for everyone. No more bullies, no more boring classes. We'll create the kind of school we always dreamed about."

Their dreams felt far off, like the clouds drifting lazily above them, but they held onto those aspirations as they navigated the ups and downs of middle school life. They faced the typical challenges: difficult tests, tricky friendships, and the awkwardness of growing up. Yet, through it all, they had each other.

There were days when Sasha would arrive at school with tears in her eyes, having had a fight with her older sister. Thavel would put an arm around her and crack a joke, trying to cheer her up, while Y/N would listen patiently, offering quiet words of comfort.

Other days, Thavel would be fuming about some injustice she perceived in the school system—a teacher who graded unfairly or a rule she found ridiculous. Sasha and Y/N would listen as she vented, then help her come up with a plan to address the issue, whether it was talking to the teacher or organizing a petition.
