Margo and Antonio's Love Story

The Green - Eyed Monster

Margo, Antonio, Melissa, and Angel were at Margo's house helping each other on their project. Margo was still concerned about why Antonio got her out of the class so quickly.

" Hey Antonio? "

" Si? "

" Can you please tell me why you pulled me out of class so fast? "

" No reason..."

Melissa and Angel looked up from their homework and butted in.

" Ya, I was looking for you guys "

" Si. You were probably the first ones to go "

" What? No... I'm pretty sure I saw someone go in front of us..."

" Come on Antonio! " pleaded Margo " Why won't you tell me?"

" Well I would answer your question, but we have to work on our homework... "

" Hey, how about we take a break? Or we can stop for today? I mean, I'm pretty sure we've worked long enough. Don't you guys agree? "

" Ya "

" Si. Antonio, what are you hiding? "

" Angel! I'm not hiding anything! "

" Okay, if you say so..."

Lucy walked in with a plate of cookies in her hands.

" Hi! I'm sure you guys want a snack "

" Ya we've been working on a project "

" Then dig in! "

" Gracias senora Lucy! "

" No problem Angel! "

The Next Day At School...

The class was sitting with their partners, Antonio still watching Chase. Jenny was talking about what they should do for their project, unaware that Antonio wasn't paying the slightest bit of attention.

Today's the day I make my move... Thought Chase.

Chase suddenly said " Why are you so interested in Antonio? He's just another player "

" Correction, he's a great guy! Unlike you, who wouldn't help me on our assignment! "

" I know you're just playing hard - to - get "

" Well, news flash! I already have a boyfriend! "

" Margo, just from experience, you better not believe a word he says. He's lying "

" No, he's not "

" Margo I'm just watching out for you. And sure you don't believe me now, but soon, you'll come crawling back "

" Never in a million years "

" You know what that boyfriend of yours wouldn't do in a million years? "

" What? "

" This! " Chase grabbed her shoulders, pulled her body against his, and kissed her full on the lips. Margo's eyes went wide.

Jenny was asking Antonio a question, when he took a double take and got up from his chair and walked toward them. He immediately yelled " Get away from her! "

Chase stopped and said " Make me! "

Antonio pulled Margo behind him and punched him in the face. Jase fell out of his chair. Margo still standing behind him, stared in shock with her mouth open at what happened. Jenny stood a few feet away frowning. Jenny thought, Ugh, the plan didn't work! Margo never fell for Chase... instead Chase fell because of Antonio. But...they did get closer... So if Chase and I make up a new plan, and it works, then it's possible that they'll never get back together! She smiled. Mrs. Smith yelled " Margo! Antonio! Chase! Go to the principle's office right now! "

They all walked out of the classroom and made their way down to the principle's office.

Chase broke the silence " Even though I got punched, I enjoyed that kiss. And I'd gladly do it again in a heartbeat ". He walked closer to Margo.

Antonio got in the way and said " Say that again, and you'll get punched a second time! "

" Antonio, what happened in there? "

" I punched Chase "

" And why did you punch him? Not that I'm against it. No offense Chase "

" No problem "

" I punched him because he said make me when I told him to stop kissing you "

" Wait a minute, are you jealous? Is that why you were acting weird the other day? "

" What?! No..."

" Are you sure? "

" Okay, yes, I'm jealous that you were paired up with Chase and that he tried to kiss you. But can you blame me? " As he said this he stared into Margo's eyes.

Margo smiled and said " I can't and I don't. In fact, I think it's adorable how you're jealous of Chase " She kissed him on the cheek. Antonio flushed. " You know, I'm not so worried about getting in trouble anymore " Margo and Antonio held hands all the way to the office. Chase trailed behind, very disappointed.

After Chase came back from the office, which was after class, he found Jenny to talk about their new plan.

" What do we do? Margo didn't fall for me! Instead, they came closer! "

" No, this is good. The closer they are, the more painful this will be to their relationship. "

" So what's the new plan? "

Jenny thought for a moment. " Okay, we all go some place that's fun, like..."

" The roller rink! "

" Ya the roller rink, so when Margo leaves for a short period of time you follow. Then, when she comes back, you give me a signal, which we'll talk about later, and it'll give me enough time to get in the position of where it looks like Antonio kisses me. And when she sees Margo will fall apart and look to you for comfort. And I'll cheer up Antonio by being his girlfriend "

" That's a really detailed plan. But I like it. Let's do it! "
