Chapter 6
Thanks Matt

At around 6:30 Daryl, Antonio and Matt arrived at the diner. Ashley already had plans with her boyfriend of the week, Crispin Glover, so Matt was on his own for the night. Antonio sat beside Daryl as Matt muttered a few words to himself and sat in front of the two at the table.

They ordered their food and sat there waiting patiently. Daryl picked up her class of water and sipped it taking a glance at Antonio and then at Matt. Could this situation be anymore awkward?

You're wrong. It can…

She looked over to the left to hear a 'hoorah' and to her surprise Mike Mizanin came right by the table and stopped when he noticed Daryl.

Daryl put her class down swallowing the water and glancing at him. Matt smirked to himself getting the idea that maybe Daryl had feelings for him and Antonio would be out of the picture.

"Hey there.." Mike smirked and looked down at Daryl taking his fedora off. She couldn't help but giggle.

"Hey Mike, how's it going?" She looked up from her seat and smiled.

"Great great..on a date?" He asked curiously as she shook her head.

"Nope, just out with my cousin and well you know Antonio." Daryl replied as Mike replied with just a nod.

Antonio was jealous but hid it well. "I'm going to go to the restroom." He looked around and headed to the bathroom.

"Have a seat Mike." Matt smiled as Mike sat down beside Daryl.

Daryl didn't bother to stop him, she was starting to feel something for Antonio but figured it was best that her cousin didn't find out.

The three continued to make conversation as Antonio started to go back to his seat coming out of the bathroom. He looked at the table noticing Mike in his spot and rolled his eyes. He watched for a few minutes peeking at Daryl to see if she was flirting with Mike. It shouldn't of bothered him since they weren't a couple, but he had a feeling she was falling for him and didn't want Mike ruining it.

Matt was thrilled at the idea that Mike and Daryl were getting along so well. He figured the closer the two became, the further Antonio would be pushed away from her.

Antonio finally walked over to the table, he grabbed a chair and sat beside Matt not saying a word about his seat being taken. He started eating his food and looked up a few times as Matt and Mike seemed to be the only two making conversation now.



Daryl noticed Antonio quiet and tried to make conversation with him. "So, Antonio…" She said but was cut off by Matts loud mouth. "Mike, you should go out with my cousin." He blurted as Daryl looked at him with wide eyes in shock and Antonio ended up choking as he took a sip of water.

Mike grinned and felt a bit embarrassed, he had a little 'crush' on Daryl since he first saw her. His character may of portrayed him as a cocky chick magnet, but he had his shy times in reality.

Daryl glanced at Mike and shrugged forcing a smile on her face. "I'll have to think about that. Thanks Matt."

Matt smiled. "Not a problem cuz, you're single you might as well." He smiled and continued eating. The four sat there in total silence as both Antonio and Daryl felt equally uncomfortable.
