How could he? How could Vito leave her for someone else? Anne Maria always thought she and Vito were meant to be. But when she came to the dance, she found him already dancing with a girl. Anne Maria didn't bother to go over there for she was too busy trying not cry so to ruin her mascara and her pride.
For the next hour, all Anne Maria did was watch him dance with that pasty, flower wearing, pathetic doormat of a girl. Even though it just made her feel worse, she can't look away.
So she was surprised by a tap on her shoulder that she turned around so fast that it was a surprise she didn't get whiplash. Standing before her was the school's quarterback of the football team; Lightening. No one knew what his real name was; for he goes by Lightening. Lightening asked her what was wrong; all he got was a mumbled "Vito" which confused him. Until he followed her gaze and saw the new couple.
Lightening may not be the sharpest tool in shed but he does know that Vito and Anne Maria were supposed to be dating. And people who date each other, dance with each other. Lightening knew it was wrong to leave a girl upset. So he did what he thought was the only solution.
"Wanna Dance?"
This was the second time she got surprised but for a different reason; Lightening was trying to be nice for once. She didn't say no, instead she grabbed his hand and went to the dance floor. When they started slow dancing they knew they were being watched, but they didn't care. They just dance to their hearts' content.
"Ligh-"
"Carlos."
Anne Maria was about to say his name when he revealed his true name. No one knew his real name. No one, but Anne Maria.
