"Yes no more school!" Marta yelled in the air joyously.
"Calm down...one it's only the weekend, two we have homework, and three it's raining," Lawrence, responded.
She laughed as the walked toward the door.
"You're still coming over my house, right?" she said as he opened the door.
"Actually Freddy invited me to sleep over," he said pointing to the bag.
"Oh," she sighed looking disappointed.
"The rest of the guys won't be over for a while, so that'll give us a few hours to hang out," he answered and got in a black BMW.
Marta smiled big and got in after him.
"Where's Fred I thought he was coming home right away," Lawrence asked fumbling through his over might bag to make sure he had everything.
"He went to Frankie's for a bit," she said eyeing him. "Is something wrong?"
"Yeah can we stop at my place for a minute, I think I forgot my toothbrush?"
"Sure," she said as they rode to his house...
"He shots...he scores and the crowd goes wild." Freddy imitates a basketball player.
"Hey Iverson, stop fooling around and help me look for this stuff," Frankie chimes in from the background.
"Why should I?"
"Because this it's your video game."
"Well you borrowed it."
"Just come and help me look."
"Fine, just keep you panties on."
They began to rummage through Frankie's room for Freddy's missing game.
"Found it," Freddy said holding it up then shoving it into his pockets.
"So what's up between you and Eleni," Freddy asked as they headed to the kitchen.
"Nothing...her father is showing me around his warehouse."
"That's what they all say."
"What about and your groupie's," Frankie said with a mouth full of cookies.
"I don't have groupie, I have women who think very highly of me."
"Sluts," Frankie coughs.
"Whatever," Freddy said taking a big gulp of milk.
"Bet you can't keep a girl for two months."
"Bet," He and Frankie shook hands.
"If I win you have to be my slave for six months, and you have to come to the pep rally naked with the words GO PIRATES painted on you." Freddy looked sick at the thought because the Horace Green Hornets and the Mountain View Pirates are sworn enemies.
"If I win you have to burn all your collector car magazines, be my slave, and sing the national anthem in front of the whole school dressed up like a woman...make up included."
"Deal," Frankie shook his hand once again but unsure.
"Rules, you must claim her in front of everyone at school, you have to sit with her at lunch, show public display of affection, go out on dates, you can not tell anyone about our deal or I win automatically."
"Cool, but who is this chick I was thinking Morgan Applegate she's-," Freddy was cut off by Frankie.
"Katie Brown," Frankie said smiling.
"Hell No!"
"Either you take Brown or it's no deal."
"Damn...Fine."
"Oh yeah and Freddy you have to break up with her at Homecoming," He said as Freddy walked out the door.
"Whatever," Freddy snapped and rode his bike to his house...
"Where is it?" Eleni screamed from inside the closet.
"What are you looking for?" Billy said lying on her bed reading a fashion magazine.
"My blue top that has that strap thingy."
"Once again I have to come to the rescue," Billy said getting up and going into her closet.
15 Minutes Later
"Are you ready yet? I mean geez you girls take forever to get ready." He banged on the door for the finale time.
"Okay I'm all dolled up," Eleni stepped out of the door wearing a multicolored striped racerback tank, a long skirt with striped waistband & side slits, and white beach sandals. Her hair was pinned up and had loose strands in her face. Eleni put on light pink lip-gloss and a touch of blush.
"Wow," Billy's mouth completely dropped. She was gorgeous and he had to restrain himself from tackling her to the ground and mauling her to death.
"Wow...bad or good?"
"Good...I don't know what you see in that fat slob. Why don't I just take you out?"
"If I didn't know any better I'd say you're flirting with me."
Before Billy could answer, the doorbell rung and Eleni shrieked.
"Oh no he's early. Get it for me."
"Why?"
Eleni looked at him with her steel blue eyes and Billy instantly turned into mush.
"Okay...okay you got me." He laughed as she threw her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thank you...thank you...thank you...Billy you're the best," she laughed and sprinted back into her bedroom.
Billy sighed deeply as he went to the door. He opened the door to see a very calm Frankie waiting. This ticked Billy off in many ways, because he unlike Eleni was calm and almost bored and had the nerve to eat a doughnut while waiting.
"Yo Billy," Frankie yelled grabbing his hand as Billy smiled slightly secretly wanting to kill him.
"Where is Eleni?"
"Getting ready..."
"Oh right, well I'm ready. How long will she be?"
Billy cheeks burned with anger and he responded with a shrug. They stood silent for a moment until they heard footsteps.
"I'm ready," the two boys looked back to see Eleni.
Billy noticed that Frankie licked his lips and stared her up and down. He went over to hug her.
"Have a great time and be careful." Billy whispered in her ear.
"Don't worry so much besides my dad will be there," she smiled and went to Frankie's side.
Billy grabbed his book bag, which was by the door, and three exited the manor.
"Billy you need a ride man," Frankie asked while opened the door for Eleni.
"Nope... (BEEP) there's my mom right there," Billy pointed out to the electric blue Hummer.
"See you later Billy!" Eleni and Frankie said in unison.
"Have fun," Billy responded as the duo were being carried away by the limo.
Billy kicked the gravel and stomped over to his mom's truck, and slumped in the front seat. When he knew he was out of foreign site he allowed an angry tear to slip out of his eye. He turned to his mother who embraced him in a fierce hug, and shed tears of her own. Billy could care less if his mom saw him cry she was his best friend, beside Eleni. They were more like brother and sister than mother and son.
"Oh baby...I know it hurts," Susan spoke lovingly to her son.
"Mom I love her so much and she doesn't even realize it, I hate Frankie. Why does she have to like him," he stuttered.
"Girls can be really naive, and Eleni is just going though a phase right now. One day, she will open up those pretty eyes and see what a great catch you are."
"Will it be soon?"
"I hope so...but in the mean time you need to point your interest in other directions."
"What?"
"Find a new girl and set your sites on her," Susan suggested starting up the car.
"What if it doesn't work?"
"It will give you some time to get over Eleni and at the same time show her what a great catch you are. Before you know it she'll be there crawling all over you. Once you've got Eleni, the other was only a toy she doesn't matter. "
"Wow...mom...that's a little devious don't you think," Billy asked nervously.
"Sometimes you have to do some real grimy things for the ones you love...that's how I got your father," Susan winked as she navigated her car out the neighborhood.
"I'd love to hear that one!" Billy cried out.
"Well...since your dad is on a business trip we can eat out tonight then catch a movie, what do you say?"
"Yeah I'll just call Freddy and cancel," Billy answered excitedly whipping out his cell.
"Where to...mate," Susan asked in a British accent.
"How 'bout Famous Dave's, then the Cineplex?"
"Good," Susan responded while merging her call on the highway...
"Alicia walked nervously through the woods on her way home from Tomika's house. She hated walking home especially in the dark, in the neighborhood park...just dangerous. It was quiet for a while as she strolled through the park a normal pace. Alicia's thoughts raced as she desperately tried to figure out why the Purple Falcons found such great interest in making her life hell on earth. They taunted, teased, and harassed her since the seventh grade, but it wasn't until six months ago that they upgraded to physical violence. It wasn't that Alicia was scared for her life; the Purple Falcons threaten the lives of her friends and family. Alicia looked toward the sky and watched the stars with great interest. Since she was a little girl, her dream was to be an astronaut but now with this new record deal with Columbia that maybe short lived. Maybe she could play one in a movie!
Crunch!
With one sound, all her happy thoughts were washed away and replaced with horror. Alicia sucked in the humidity, closed her eyes and turned her head slowly hoping it was a squirrel. Her hope was short lived when she opened her eyes to saw the Purple Falcons surrounding her. Even though they masked cowards, Alicia could decode that there were three girls, and five boys.
"Well...well Alicia I never knew niggers came out at night!" One of the girls spat at her.
"I don't know...she looks like wet back to me," the alpha male of the pack squeal as he viscously shoved her to the ground.
"Where are those annoying band mates when you need them," he yelled as to of the boys held her down.
The leader began to unzip his pants and kneel down in front of Alicia who now squirmed with all her might. As he revealed his erect genitals, Alicia delivered a swift kick to his groin. He doubled over in pain and then punched her in the stomach.
"You black bitch, your jigaboo ass ain't even worth the fuck! Now I'm going to let some real women deal with you...Ladies you know what to do," he signaled the three girls to Alicia who began yelling racial slurs. Alicia shut her eyes tight and hopped that they would just disappear...
Marta was bored stiff in her house with a group of teenage boys downstairs raiding the refrigerator and hogged the big screen. She would have went to Tomika's house if she knew ahead of time they were going to invade her house.
'I got it...I'll go for a run through the park,' Marta thought while putting on sweats, shoes and grabbing her uncle's bat he had given her for protection.
Marta walked down the steps to the family room where the patio door was located. Her face shrewd into a look of disgust as she scanned the mess that infested the kitchen and family room. She wasn't surprised that fifteen boys had fashioned this much chaos.
The boys were crowded around the television watching Freddy and Leonard battle each other out. They were all too memorized by Leonard kicking ass to tear their eyes away except for one person.
"Blondie where are you going this time of night?" Freddy asked pausing the game causing all eyes to be on her.
"For a quick run."
"Not if you want mom to kill you when she finds that you left." Freddy threatened.
"She won't, and if she does then dad'll find out what a mess Maria had to come and clean up on her night off." Marta smiled triumphantly.
Freddy scowled at his twin throwing an empty soda can at her. Marta frowned back, walked out the door, and then broke into a heated run. The steel bat clutched tightly in her hands as she practically flew through the park. The night view was a blur to her but then she caught the sight of purple.
She suddenly stopped and turned toward the purple people. Two of the boys were holding down a familiar looking girl, the other three boys were egging them on, and three of the girls were advancing on the girl. Marta thought hard about what the repercussions would be if she got involved. Her parents raised her to be noble, and not cower in the face of danger. She gripped her bat tightly and approached the group.
"Hey, leave her alone!" Marta screamed at the now frozen group and the victim opened her eyes, which Marta knew so well.
"Alicia are you okay?"
"Yeah, Marta run-" but was silenced by a harsh blow to the face.
"Keep your mouth shut spook!"
"You guys had better get lost because I called the police." Marta pressured opening the phone behind her back.
"She's bluffing!"
Then a loud siren broke through the tension causing everyone to panic. The majority of the purple pussies scattered into the darkness except the leader.
"This ain't over yet nigger, we go to the same school it's going to be a long year." His spoke then spat in her face before trailing after his partners in crime.
Marta dropped her bat and raced over to Alicia. She gently touched Alicia who flinched at the touch. Then she swiftly wrapped her arms around the victimized girl.
"How...did...you do that?" Alicia coughed.
"Used one of the ringers on my phone," she said stroking her hair.
"Thank-you."
"How long have this been going on?"
"About two years."
"What?"
"They threatened me."
"They might be back cause the police aren't coming."
"Where are we going?" Alicia said as they got up and Marta supported her weight.
"Grab the bat we're going to my house."
"Okay..."
They walked for about twenty minutes until they arrived at Marta's house. Marta was suspicious that the blinds were closed but the noise level was high.
"Is that the t.v?" Alicia asked as Marta opened the patio door.
"You'll see."
As soon as Marta walked in with the limping Alicia, the boys completely froze and so did Alicia.
"Oh my God," Gordon gasped signaling the whole room to break out in pandemonium...
How will the boys react to the site of Alicia? Who are the Purple Falcons? Will there be more hate crimes? Will Freddy survive the bet? Only time will tell...
