*Just a quick note, I will not-so-slowly be introducing new ships in this chapter, some are quite obvious, some are just said outright, but the ones that Cassie and Sage get to know well might be harder to tell. I have decided the POV and also everything just changed to first person (the story works better that way) and yeah sorry*
I unlocked my phone and watched Sage sleep. I had a new text notification. When I opened it up, it said:
Heeeey guys! Emma told us! Sage, do you want to come to the GSA? And Cass, I guess you can be there as a supportive ally? Idk. But pls, we're having a special meeting @ the library at five 2night. Wanna come?! We're all meeting 4 breakfast @ 9. We'll hang out!!!
<3 Terence, Zoey, Luka, Gemmy, Daisy, Hannah, Peyton, Nathan, Addie, Moira, and Tailen!
"Oh no," I whispered.
Sage turned over. "Whaaa-?"
"Noth-"
"What's that?"
I groaned. "Emma told people. More specifically, the GSA. They think I'm straight. And. Let's not forget-SHE TOLD PEOPLE."
Sage's eyes widened.
"Wait, what did they say?"
I showed them. They snickered. "Cass?!"
"Shuuush!"
"DO YOU WANT PANCAKES?!"
"We can go downstairs," Sage suggested.
"Do you want to go?" I asked.
"To be honest, I kind of do."
-
Once we got there, everybody introduced themselves. "Hi. I'm Daisy. She/her. I'm aroace and trans."
"I'm Zoey. She/her. This is Hannah, they/she, and Gemmy, any pronouns. We're, kind of. . ."
"We're dating," Gemmy cut in.
Hannah rolled their eyes. "Did they really have to know?"
"Yeah. They did. It's literally GSA."
"Terence. He/him."
"Luka, he/him."
Terence and Luka smiled at each other and reached to touch each other's hands before walking apart, the only thing keeping them from being apart was their hands.
"I'm Peyton. I'm trans and gay and sad and alone. He/him."
"You're so depressing," somebody said. "I'm Nathan. I'm questioning and bisexual. I use he/him pronouns for now, but I think that might change. I think I might be bigender."
"Hi. I'm Nathan's partner, but I guess you could call me his girlfriend, I just prefer 'partner'. I use she pronouns. I'm Tailen."
Everybody turned to me. "Uh, I'm Cassie. Apparently everybody here calls me 'Cass'. I use she pronouns, and um, I'm kind of neptunic."
I said it so quietly that Terence said, "What?" Luka whispered something in his ear while pulling out a five dollar bill in his pocket.
"Oh!"
Everybody handed Daisy five dollars and she smirked. Sage snorted out laughter.
"Well. I'm Sage. And I use they/them pronouns."
Just then, two people walked up, laughing together. "Oh-hi! Are you two the new ones? Addie, she/her, and this is Moira, she/her! I'm pansexual!"
"And I'm polysexual."
We introduced each other.
"Okay. Since it's a Saturday, all of the GSA members have a day out. We go to this building of stores for food and stuff, and then we just walk around and look at cool stuff! Some of us go to Addie's or Terence's house to sleep over, but I'm guessing you're tired. And if you're not, you'll end up tired." Luka said.
*OKAY. Sorry it was a bit boring, but I did have to introduce the GSA somehow. Also, I do have to give a shootout to Nobi for being very supportive of my writing. Thank you! Give me your feedback, the ppl you might be shipping *glances in the direction of a certain set of +ahem+ best friends.* There are TWO hidden/secret/hinted ships, but only one of them is a new one. Also, the GSA's day out will be devoted to one chapter, and solely one chapter. I promise.*
