| Harper hesitated still before going to sit down like Dixon directed, pulling her bag beside her, not sure what she was supposed to do either. "Uhm, thanks." she smiled some, glancing around for her brother. He was supposed to be having a late lunch because of his tutoring for reading but he should've been there by now, she thought. "So... um.." |

| "Um...you're...kinda new here, right?" Griffith said, wanting to break the tension so he could just stop BLUSHING. |

| "Yeah. Today my sixth day here." Harper said, relieved for some sort've conversation topic. |

| "Cool, uh, where did you live before?" Griffith asked, reaching into his lunch sack to grab the tupperware of leftover pasta his mother had packed for him. He popped the lid and set it down before retrieving the fork, digging in unceremoniously. |

"Portland, Oregon. Big city." Harper said, biting at the corner of her bottom lip as she looked around for her brother again. "I was born in Las Vegas though. Another big city." she said before suddenly standing up and waving her hand in the direction of the entrance doors.
A small brunette boy ran towards them, round little glasses perched on his nose and a silly smile already growing. "Sis!" Darcy greeted quickly. |

Griffith blinked when the little boy arrived at the table, meanwhile, Dixon's face simply lit up as he pointed at the boy.
"Hey! You have glasses too!" He said excitedly. He looked to Griffith and yanked on Griff's sleeve to get his attention. "Look! Look! He's got glasses like me!" He cheered.
"Yeah, I can see, Dixie." Griffith said, unable to suppress a little laugh at his brother's excitement. |

Darcy looked away from Harper with a few rapid blink before his bright smile returned, showing him missing those front teeth of his. "Hey! You do have glasses!" he said, just as excitedly and went to sit down quickly by Harper, in front of Dixon. "I'm Darcy!"
Harper looked instantly relieved that she had Dixon in her sight, shoulders relaxing and slumping a little as she took a deep breath, watching his excitement with a smile, reserved purely for her brother. |

"I'm Dixie!" Dixon greeted, taking off his glasses and immediately shoving them across the table and making grabby hands for Darcy's glasses. "I like yours! I wanna try!"
"You guys probably don't have the same prescription, bub." Griff warned as he pecked away at his pasta. |

"Okay!" Darcy grinned and pulled off his own, shoving them across to Dixon before going to try Dixon's on, squinting almost immediately since Darcy was blind as a bat after all. "Wooow.. how do you see??"
"You need to eat, Darcy." Harper reminded him, reaching for Darcy's bag to unpack his lunch for him.
"Yeah, yeah, I will! Aren't you gonna eat too?" Darcy asked, still looking around with Dixon's glasses before going to take them off.
"I'm not hungry." |

Dixon grinned giddily as he put on Darcy's glasses, blinking rapidly as his head spun slightly.
"Woaaah! You can't see anything, can you?" He asked, taking them off and shoving them back across the table before earning a swat at his arm from Griffith. "Mangia, will you?" He scolded before glancing over at Harper. "You too." |

Harper blinked at him blankly. "Me too what? What did you just say?" she asked, suddenly curious. "What language was that?"
Darcy shoved Dixon's glasses back over to him and took back his own, putting them on with a sigh of content. "Better! Harp says I'm blind as a .. a.. bat." |

Griffith flushed. He didn't intend to spark that much curiosity in regards to himself. He reached up with his free hand and tugged at his hair in a nervous gesture.
"It means...it means 'eat up'. Our mom's Italian, so she's always yellin' at us to mangia. Our dad too, except, he's just got that brogue accent when he gets pissy." Griffith said, nodding a bit.
"Yeh, yeh! Dad's got a stupid accent sometimes!" Dixon agreed, grinning. "He said both our Granny and Grandpa were born in Ireland, and Mom says that our other Gram and Grandad, even her daddy, were born in Italian Land." Dixon explained eagerly.
"Yeah...anyway, uh...man- I mean...eat up too." Griffith said, still flushing. |

"I'm not hungry." Harper said again, more focused on making sure Darcy ate, pushing the sandwich and bowl of fruit she had packed that morning for him over to Darcy. "But um.. that's really cool." Harper admitted, looking at him again. "Do.. you know anything else in Italian?"
"Ireland? Like Leprechauns?" Darcy asked, innocently as he grabbed for a peace slice. |

"Um...a little bit. My mom doesn't really speak it, because then our dad get's all dopey and has to kiss her or somethin', I don't know, they're gross." Griffith's face scrunched up a bit. "But, uh...eccolo, ora mangia." Griffith said, pushing his pasta tupperware across the table towards Harper.
"Mm, I don't think so, I mean, maybe. I don't think my dad's a leprechaun though, but I've also never seen one so...maybe." Dixie answered with a nod. |

"Ew." Harper made a face, though that thought was a little weird to her. Dopey in love parents? "Why are you so persistent that I eat? I'm fine."
Darcy hummed thoughtfully, swinging his feet a little. "What if he's a leprechaun in disguise though? They're magic, y'know!" he stated before looking over at Griffith and Harper. "Oh, Sis won't eat. She usually saves whatever she gets for us for dinner."
Harper flushed and smacked her brother's arm, gently. "Darcy, shush! You're not supposed to talk about that stuff!" she hissed, lowly before looking back at Griffith, frowning. "Sorry, he's being dumb. I don't. I just don't like eating." |
