Chapter 6

*At giulia's house*

Giulia (whispering): Alright, just let me do the talking and act casual

Giulia (whispering): He doesn't do well with fear

Giulia: *turns to her father* Hey, Papà! I brought some friends for dinner, is there enough for four?

*massimo turns to face them causing beatstar to let out a tiny squeak of nervousness*

Alberto: Whoa...what;s wrong with you stu--

*before alberto could finish what he was saying beatstar slapped her hand over his mouth while shushing him*

*A few minutes later*

*Alberto and beatstar were seated at the table looking up at some harpoons*

Alberto (whispering to beatstar):...What do you think he kills with those?

Massimo: *chops off a fish head* Anything that swims

Massimo: *hands giulia a picture of a newspaper clipping of a sea monster* Hai visto il giornale today?

Giulia: *groans and takes it* That photo is a fake papà

Giulia: Everyone in Portorosso pretends to believe in sea monsters 

*Giulia shows them the newspaper clipping and for some strange reason the silhouette looked strangely similar alberto*

Beatstar (thinking): Wait a sec...why does that picture remind me of alberto? i mean i get that its a sea monster but it looks...eerily similar to him, practically identical...

*Alberto's eyes widened as he darts his eyes around the room nervously*

Massimo: *snatches the photo from beatstar* Well I am not pretending!

*Massimo takes a knife and stabs the picture into a corkboard with other sea monster propaganda causing beatstar's wings to pop out out of shock*

*Alberto notices her wings and lets out a gasp and pulls her under the table making beatstar yelp in surprise*

*Under the table*

Beatstar (whispering): Alberto! what the heck was that for?

Alberto (whispering): Your wings are showing! I had to do something

Beatstar (whispering): Oh *uses her magic to make her wings invisible again* Done

*Back out from under the table*

*Alberto and beatstar pop back up with nervous smiles*

Beatstar: Uh slipped *chuckles nervously*

Giulia:...Eh *turns back around and helps massimo prepare dinner*

*beatstar and alberto sigh of relief quietly*

Beatstar (quietly): That was close...

*then they hear growling and they see massimo's cat, Machiavelli peeking up at them growling*

Massimo: Dinner's ready

Beatstar (thinking): And not another moment too soon

Massimo: Trenette al pesto

Massimo: Mangiamo *Sits down*

*Beatstar notices a fork and stares at it before chuckling nervously at massimo*
