Chapter 12

Stai zitto: (sta te zeet): SHUT YOUR MOUTH!

Antonio:

I’ve always hated school. I have to put up with the phony kids who try to be my friend, the made-up bleach blondes that hang on me and the teachers who can barely look me in the eye. Don’t get me wrong; years ago I took some Barbies up on their offers and used my position to influence some grades. I didn’t do it for long. It just didn’t feel right. I stay pretty low key at school. Most people stay away from me anyway.

I park next to Vito’s Caddy. I scan the parking lot and benches looking for Megan. Raven’s little blue car is a few cars down.

I slam my door and in front of me is Vito.

“What happened yesterday?” he asks, smirking. “You talk to her Dad?”

“Yup.”

“What did he say?”

“He said yes.”

“You are shitting me! Even after you kicked Dino’s ass in church?”

“Yup.”

“Dude, that’s awesome!”

My mind is racing about what I’m going to say to Megan today. Today is the first day of auto mechanics and Megan is in my class. We’re assigned lockers our freshman year and keep them until we graduate. I always tried to make it a point to walk by Megan’s locker in the morning. Now I’m headed there with a purpose. I have this insane urge to let everyone know that she’s mine. My stalker is back because we have barely been together.

Megan is just slamming her locker as she hikes her bag over her shoulder. She smiles when she sees me coming. I take that as a good sign.

“Hi,” she says blushing. Her hair is hanging straight down her back.

“Hi.” There is an awkward pause. “What class do you have first?”

“Home Ec.” I don’t even give myself a chance to think. I take her hand in mine and lead her down the hall to her classroom. The hallway is still full. Some people rush out of the way when they see me coming. Others stare from the outskirts near their lockers. Their eyes travel to my hand wrapped around Megan’s. The hallway is unnaturally quiet as we get to her classroom. It’s a short walk. “What class do you have?” Megan asked.

“English,” I said.

“You’re going to be late. That is the other side of the school... Thanks for the dessert yesterday.”

“Don’t thank me; thank my Mom.” I don’t have any patience so I ask her. “Can you go out Saturday?”

“Ummm, yeah, I guess. I don’t have any plans.” She watches me. “That was pretty brave coming over and talking to my Dad. It was awkward as a matter of fact.”

I stop short in front Home Ec. “What are you saying?” Does she not want to go out?! Shit!

“Nothing. Just that it was weird. Nowadays, guys don’t usually ask a girl’s parents to take her on a date.”

“My father wasn’t for it at first. He said he wanted to talk to your Dad.” I was starting to get an eerie feeling. “Do you not want to go out Saturday?”

“No, it’s not that… I would love to go.
