Lunch; the favorite snarky answer to the question 'what's your favorite class.' It took 4 1/3 periods for it to come to our duo; that's an outrageously long time to wait for food, especially when you didn't eat breakfast.
Star grabbed her lunch and plopped down at the 'Double W Table™' with a groan. (in case you were wondering; the double W stands for weird and wild, or at least that's what Star originally dubbed it before deciding it sounded better abbreviated.)
"Lunch took waaayyy too long to get here... AND I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO WAIT THE WHOLE NORMAL 5 PERIODS FOR IT!! That's saying something!" Complained Star.
"Says something about what, though? Your appetite or impatience?" Marco lightheartedly poked fun, sitting next to her & across from Alfonso & Ferguson. The Latinx's comment eliciting laughter from his surrounding acquaintances, plus one girl that, under normal circumstances, would leave Marco absolutely speechless.
"Haha! Brutal, Marco!" Jackie chuckled, not waiting for an invitation before sitting with them at the table. a surprised "Oh, hey, Jackie." coming from everyone at the table.
Alfonso began whispering something into Ferguson's ear, looking somewhat suspiciously at the cool kid.
"Yeah, yeah, you raise quite a good point, Alfie my sweet, dear friend... Why is the coolest kid at this school; possibly in this whole town, sitting at this table... with us... This is like the social suicide table? We're a bunch of weirdos, why are you sitting here, you skateboarding siren!" Ferg ranted as Star chewed anxiously on her sleeve.
"Whoa there, Ferg. Is it suddenly illegal to sit at a table and eat?" Jackie reasoned sarcastically, making Ferguson hum in consideration, and nod a 'yes, yes it is illegal.' Star gasped, jumping on her feet & grabbing her food tray.
"iT IS????" She squaked as she stood. Marco, mid-swallow on a pb&j started coughing, breaking into laughter. He grabbed the bottom of the dresses skirt, tugging lightly to tell her that she should sit back down.
Marco cleared his throat and took a breath.
"What are you doing sitting with us, though, Jackie? You aren't sitting by Star, which, in all honesty, is the only reason you would sit with us under most if not all circumstances?" He inquired.
"Actually, I was hoping to talk to you, Marco." J.L.T replied, her lips quirked into a smirk. "I was wondering if you'd like to go on a date with me this Saturday."
Ferguson had a surprise spit take with his Izzy drink, 'eyes widened to the size of paltes' { ;) } at the skater chicks offer to Marco.
The brunette was taken aback; which was justified, considering his crush from forever just asked him on a date.
"SAY YES!!!" Star squealed, smiling wide at Jackie, mouthing a 'thank you' to her for keeping her word.
"I- wh - I'm?" Marco sputtered.
AAAA WHAT'RE YOU DOING, MARCO YOU DING-DONG??? SAY YES TO HER!!! Star shouted internally.
"Okay, I guess?? I mean, sure?? Sounds.. fun? Yeah!" The Latinx replied coherently after a few seconds that felt like forever.
"Sweet! Meet me at the part at 10:30a, alright?" Jackie smiled cooly, stood up from her spot next to Marco, grabbed her tray, and walked to her regular table where she'd sit for the rest of lunch period. A slight sashay in her walk.
"Okay, what the heck was that all about?" Ferguson grabbed his jaw off the floor where it had dropped.
"I think there's some explaining that needs to be done." Alfonso spoke up.
