Cyan put his hand on the glass, longingly staring out the window. He never quite enjoyed being cooped up in one place at a time, but sadly, this was an order.

The whole crew had been told to stay on their ship until a certain virus had been confirmed gone. This virus was called the "Imposter Virus." Crewmates who caught it would go into a form of panic mode, murdering almost any crewmate they saw.

Cyan doubted that the virus would affect the space ship he was staying on, but HR wasn't taking any chances.

"Yo Cyan!"

Cyan spun around, swiftly looking at who had called him. Orange jogged over, grabbing his hand.

"C'mon dude! Dinner's be'in served in the cafeteria!"

Cyan chuckled,"Really? Who's cooking tonight?"

"White! And you know he's the best cook out'ev all of us, I'm sure he's cooked somethin' super yummy today!"

"True, his cooking is really good.."

Orange started speed-walking to the cafeteria, his hand still holding Cyan's, forcing Cyan to be dragged along. Cyan smiled, excited to see what his boyfriend made for dinner tonight.

As the two walked into the cafeteria, the bustling of multiple conversations going on at once filled the room. Cyan spotted White sitting over at a table alone, three plates full of food next to him.

Orange let go of Cyan's hand, waving as he strolled over to Pink, who was gulping down food at a monstrous pace.

"Cyan! Over here Love!"

Cyan turned his head back to White who had been waving him over. A smile  was sure to be on his lips, but was covered by a helmet. He chuckled, slowly walking over to his boyfriend.

"What's up Darling?"

"Nothing much, sit down and eat. I took two extra plates for you guys, but Black isn't here yet.."

"I hope he isn't overworking himself again, it's happened way to many times."

"I know, but it's all for a good cause. If he isn't here by the end of dinner we'll go get him, okay?"

"Sounds like a plan."

This wasn't the first time Black had skipped a meal, in fact he seemed to only get about one meal a day. Both Cyan and White couldn't help but worry about him sometimes...

"Hey everyone! Listen up!"

Cyan and White turned there heads, spotting Green with a glass in his hand.

"I want to give a small toast," he coughed, nervously looking around. He continued," I want to give a toast to all of us. I'm thankful that the virus hasn't affected any of us yet and I'm thankful that I'm quarantined on a ship with a crew I know and trust." He laughed before raising his glass," A toast!" He exclaimed.

"A toast!" Everyone repeated.

"To all of the amazing people on this space ship."

"Cheers!"

An hour had passed since the wholesome event had taken place and Black still hadn't arrived to dinner.

White and Cyan walked throug the halls, on their way to navigations where Black most likely was, always making sure to steer clear of asteroid belts, storms, black holes, etc.

"What do you think happened this time?"

"I'm guessing he's trying navigate away from an asteroid field."
