Amber Weinstein crowns Parker

Senior Sex Symbol in the cafeteria.

Parker lowers his head so she can

put the sparkly gold crown on him.

“Take your shirt off,” says the photographer

from The Roundup, our school yearbook,

pointing her camera at him.

“Take your shirt off!” everyone chants.

Foxy whistles. Spaz hoots.

Julianne covers her mouth and giggles.

Teachers roll their eyes.

This is a Livingstone tradition.

It’s all for a good cause.

But Parker looks exactly like

that deer we almost hit

when we were coming home from an

apple-picking trip last year.

He shakes his head

and walks off the mock-stage.

Just like that.

“What’s McDreamy’s problem?”

a girl whispers behind me.

I could tell her to shut up.

Or butt out.

Or buzz off.

But I can’t answer her question

because I don’t know either.
