Julio walked through the cafeteria over to where his friends sat, grinning ear to ear. Setting his tray down, he waggled his eyebrows, his eyes twinkling with amusement. Instead of sitting down, he stood there, waiting for his friends to say something.
“What?” Bernd said as he played with his tater tots.
Julio shrugged.
Denis laughed. “Those girls drag you into their bathroom again?”
Julio shook his head. He hummed softly.
“Tell us, dumbass!” Cesare glared at him.
“Food, glorious food,” Julio sang. “Hot sausage and mustard…”
“You got a part?!” Denis popped a tater tot in his mouth.
Julio nodded. “Food, glorious food…” he continued to sing.
“That’s awesome!” Bernd said as Amber rolled her eyes and shook her head.
“I didn’t know you were a theater kid,” she said.
Julio shrugged. “Food, glorious food, wonderful food, marvelous food!”
“Numbnuts,” Amber muttered softly to herself.
James lobbed a tater tot at him. “Food, crappiest food!” he joked.
Everyone laughed as it was partially true. The burgers tasted like cardboard and the chicken nuggets had no taste at all, however, the dish of day, “lo mein,” had flavor, although, the vegetables in it were soggy.
“Food, crappiest food!” Julio sang back at them, when a kid from a neighboring table flung a spoonful of peas at him.
“Food, crappiest food! Wonderful food fight!!” someone yelled and all hell broke loose in the cafeteria.
Amber grabbed her tray and ducked under their table, followed by Bernd and her twin, James. Julio, Denis, and Cesare quickly joined them. They hid there, while the food fight raged around them, calmly eating the remains of their lunch and trying to figure out how to leave without getting caught in the crossfire. The fight ended as quickly as it started when several teachers walked in. Unfortunately, the six of them were caught when they emerged from under the table and they were hauled down to the principal’s office.
They waited on the bench just outside the office, while they waited for Wolfgang and Luigi to arrive. When they did, the office secretary quickly ushered them inside the principal’s office. They had been in there for fifteen minutes, before the door opened and the principle asked the kids to come in. Bernd noticed his father was not amused and he started getting upset. Before he could make things worse for them, Amber poked him, and getting his attention, she shook her head.
“Uh, if I can say something, sir?” Amber spoke up.
“Go ahead,” the principal said. He had heard it all before, but he was willing to listen to them.
Amber gave her friends a quick look, and taking a deep breath, she said, “Well, ummm… We were sitting there with our lunches, when Julio came over to sit with us. The idiot-” She was interrupted by a “Hey!” from Julio, before continuing, “thought it would fun if he sang to us. So he picked a song from the play he’s in. Some other idiot,” she stared pointedly at her brother, “threw a tater tot at him, while singing ‘food, crappiest food.’ Julio sang that back at him and someone else flicked peas at him. That’s when an even bigger idiot yelled ‘food, crappiest food fight’ and the sheeples in the cafeteria starting throwing food around. At that point we did the only thing we could; we hid under the table. Do you honestly think we’re dumb enough to start a food fight and stick around?” She folded her arms across her chest as if waiting for a reply. “We’ve never been in trouble before, except that idiot.” She looked over at Denis.
“That’s right,” Luigi said.
Wolfgang nodded.
“It was for cutting class and getting caught with a girl under the bleachers,” Denis said.
“Not helping, Denis,” Amber said softly.
“Anyway, that’s all we have to say.”
“Yeah,” Bernd said.
“Since you’ve never really been in trouble before, I’ll let you off with a warning. If I find any of you in my office again, I’ll give you that suspension I was going to give you now. Whatever your parents decide to do is up to them,” the principal said. “And you,” he looked at Julio, “Just be happy I don’t have a word with the drama teacher about this.”
“Yes, sir!” Julio said. “And thanks.”
“We will talk about this later,” Wolfgang said as he stood up to leave.
“Yeah,” Luigi added.
“Let’s go…?” Bernd said and with that they left to go back to class, their trouble forgotten as they waited for a late pass.
