Lunch
"Follow me, the cafeteria is this way." Mark explained. November nodded, and the two exited the auditorium. "Welcome to the YTCA by the way."
"Thanks. That's the first real one Ive gotten all day." November replied.
"Sorry about that. We aren't really known for our warm welcoming. Mostly the famous YouTubers that go here." Mark explained, adjusting his glasses. "So what's your major?"
"Gaming. You?" November asked.
"Me too! I was going to be an engineer, but this was a bit more fitting." Mark replied.
"Engineering and Gaming are two completely different fields." November commented.
"YouTube gaming means a lot more to me these days." Mark replied with a shrug, then went through an arch that lead to the main quad. November followed and nodded.
"I hear you. Mom wanted me to take over the family business. But I'm a bit more partial to video games then I am to acting." November replied.
"Your moms an Actress?" Mark asked. November nodded.
"Yeah. My stepdad is a director. They don't really support my choice. However my oldest cousin, he got me into the gaming world. I used to hang out with him a lot as a kid. We used to play a lot of video games, and he'd record them with me, then post them to his channel. And that's what really got me started. I don't see him much anymore but occasionally he'll post a video on his channel." November explained.
"That's one interesting family. I'll have to google the Torres family." Mark replied.
"Actually, you may want to google the Winters family. My real dad was a famous photographer, and mom was a famous model. Naturally, when I came around, I was just as popular. I've been in front of a camera since birth. And I was only 5 or 6 when I started playing video games with my cousin. Before my stepdad came along, we were the Winters." November explained. Mark snarked.
"November Winters." Mark commented.
"Better than August March." November replied, remembering one of the names from her elementary school.
"Guess you're right there. At least yours has to do with the same part of the year." Mark explained. November nodded.
"Unfortunately, I'm a Torres now..." November sighed. The two walked in silence for a few moments more before entering a building. It had several places to eat to choose from, including Starbucks, McDonald's, Taco Bell, In-and-Out, and many other restaurants. November smiled. "Now this is a cafeteria!"
Mark chuckled.
"Welcome to the YouTube life." Mark announced. "Now go on, and pick something out quickly. You have a lot of introductions to get through."
November furred a brow at Mark this time. "What do you mean?"
"You're going to want to know the people you sit with." Mark replied, stepping a head of her in the Starbucks line. November had grabbed a chilled chocolate mocha from the case and was about to pay for it.
"You want me to sit with you and your friends?" November asked.
"You kind of have to." Mark replied. The two got to the counter and November placed her Mocha on it and asked for a ice lemon pound cake, in which the worker nodded and quickly got her pastry.
"What do you mean?" November repeated, digging through her bag to grab her card. But Mark was quicker, and slid his card before November could stop him. November glared at him.
"Thank you." Mark announced to the worker, and then grabbed Novembers food. "And now you know why." Mark replied. November rolled her eyes and went to retrieve her food back but Mark held it above his head. "Nope. Not till you agree." Mark stated. November sighed.
"Fine." November replied. Mark smiled.
"Good. Now come on, their over here." Mark announced and took off in a power walk, trying to gain some ground on November.
"Wait! Mark!" November laughed, taking off after him, not wanting him to drop her food. Mark approached a table with a several other people already sitting at it, and set the items on the table, which got the attention of everyone who was sitting.
"What's that?" Asked one of Marks friends.
"You'll see." Mark replied. November finally caught up with Mark and began to draw in deep breaths.
"You didn't say.... Anything about running... Mark..." November huffed.
"You didn't ask." Mark replied.
"Can I have my food back. I kinda need that for energy." November announced.
"Sit." Mark replied. November rolled her eyes.
"Mark-"
"Just do it!" Mark commanded. November rolled her eyes, but did as he said. "Okay. November, these are my friends." November waved, and then tried to grab for her food, but Mark out his arm in the way and pulled it from her farther.
"Mark. Food. Need." November announced, lazily, still attempting to reach over his arm shield.
"That's Jack, on the end, Felix next to him, Ken on the other side, and... Hey... Where did cry go?" Mark asked.
"The bathroom I think." Ken replied. November looked at the group and waved.
"Can I have my lunch now?" November asked. Mark sighed and gave November her food back. She pulled out her computer and began eating her lunch. "Hmmm..." November hummed as she opened the Skype app on her computer and called the contact labels "Small Fry". She plugged in her headphones and waited.
"November!" Sabina yelped.
"Hey small fry." November replied with a grin, which drew the attention of everyone at the table.
"Are you at Starbucks?" Sabina asked, looking at Novembers drink.
"No. There's one here in the cafeteria!" November replied. Sabina's face dropped.
"Awe no fair! I got stuck with the chicken patty sandwiches for lunch." Sabina replied, disappointed.
"Hey, when you come visit, I'll be sure to swing you by. Deal?" November asked. Sabina's face brightened.
"You kidding me! Yes!" Sabina replied.
"How's Mitch?" November asked. Sabina shrugged.
"He got sick this morning and never came to school." Sabina replied. November face palmed.
"Figures. That Slacker." November announced.
"I know right. Hey, have you met any other YouTubers?" Sabina asked. November chuckled.
"Funny you should ask that. Stay put for a second Small fry, let me do a little consulting." November replied, and took her head phones out of her ear. She looked to her new found companions. They were looking right back at her. "Mark. You wouldn't mind surprising my best friends little sister would you?" November asked. Mark shook his head. November smiled. "Thanks." She unplugged her headphones and angled the computer so that she was visible and Mark wasn't quite visible. "Small fry, Meet Mark. Mark, Small fry." November announced now angling the computer for Sabina to see Mark. Sabina Covered her mouth and squealed as Mark waved.
"YOU MET MARKIPLIER AND DIDN'T TELL ME?!?!" Sabina asked. November laughed at her reaction.
"I'm sorry, I thought it might surprise you more if you actually saw him, Sabina." November replied. Sabina nodded her head from side to side.
"Well- I mean... You did..." Sabina explained. November crossed her arms.
"Last time I try to surprise you." November announced. Sabina pouted.
"I'm sorry! Thank you so much, really!" Sabina replied. November smirked.
"I forgive you and you're welcome." November announced. She could tell Sabina walking. The frame kept moving up and down. "So where are you now?" November asked.
"I'm a few houses away from your place." Sabina replied.
"You mean my old place." November remarked.
"Dude, what did you do this morning?" Sabina asked. November furred a brow.
"What do you mean?" November asked.
"Jock's on a rampage! He put up missing posters with your face on it and a reward!" Sabina replied, showing November the fliers. November cringed.
"Good Grief Jock! That fricken prick wants me back! Bet my parents put him up to it." November announced.
"Looks like it. I know your parents didn't want you to go while they're away, but jeez, this is a bit much."
"I just hope he doesn't tie me to a chair like he did last time, when I go for the rest of my boxes tomorrow." November announced.
"I'll help you if you want." Sabina replied, with a smile.
"You'd do that?" November asked.
"It's the weekend for me. Its not like I'm doing anything anyway." Sabina replied. November smiled.
"Thanks Small Fry." November announced.
"Don't mention it. I gotta go, if I let Papaya out again, moms gonna kill me." Sabina replied.
"Awe! Take a picture of Papaya for me Okay? It will be my new screen saver so don't screw it up." November announced. Sabina nodded.
"Will do. Bye!" Sabina replied and then ended the call.
