"QUELLA PAZZA CI STA GUARDANDO?" (Is that crazy lady looking at us?)GIOVANNI COSTA asked, a grimace on his face as an overly hyper older woman was jumping around with their name on a sign, beckoning them her way. The band stood in the Van Nuys Airport in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles California— tired, half asleep, and cranky. They all groaned collectively as the chipper woman jogged over to them. She had short brown hair, a pair of glasses, and was dressed in exactly what you would picture a teacher to wear.
"Bongiorno! Welcome to our country!" The woman spoke in a yell, causing the teens to cringe. She seems to think yelling will make them understand English better. "I'm Mrs. Blatt! A guidance counsellor at West Valley High!" They blinked at her. "Do you guys speak English?!"
"Yes," Eleonora Costa responded with a forced smile. Her blond hair was pulled into a high ponytail, she wore a pair of skin tight black jeans, a black turtle neck, and a pair of black sunglasses that luckily kept her eye roll hidden. "It's nice to meet you. I'm Eleonora and this is my brother Giovanni Costa." She nodded towards the boy with messy shoulder length hair, elbowing him in the chest when he didn't respond.
"Nice to meet you!"
"We can understand you, don't worry!" A black haired boy replied cheerfully, a charming smile on his face as he held it out for the woman to shake. "Non so come urlare aiuterebbe, ma.. Anyways, I'm Dawson Ferrari. Pleasure to meet you," He leaned down, grabbing the woman's hand and placing a kiss on it. (I don't know how screaming would help, but...)
"Oh—" Mrs. Blatt laughed, a blush on her face. "And you must be Alessandro," She greeted the quiet, long haired boy, who just nodded in response. "Well, follow me! I'm supposed to drop you off at your homes! Exchange is so interesting. Someone goes to live in your home, and you go to theirs! So much fun!"
Giovanni looked at Dawson in disgust, his nose crinkled. "Che cazzo, amico?"(What the fuck, dude?)
"Che cosa?" (What?) The black haired boy laughed, pulling his annoyed friend into a side hug. "I was just messing with her, lighten up bubba."
"It made me want to vomit," Alessandro commented as he walked past the two. He had a giant bag being dragged behind him that contained his drum set, as well as a giant suit case.
"Good, we need to learn to speak in English more." Eleonora sighed, following after the quiet boy. "Unless we're gossiping, then we're good."
"Vogilo già andarmene," Giovanni rolled his eyes.(I want to leave already).
"Ah, in English!" Dawson, smirked, patting the younger boy on the shoulder as he walked past. He laughed, knowing he was annoying him.
"Fuck you, asshole!"
"There you go!"
━━
"QUESTO È STATO UN ERRORE." (This was a mistake) Alessandro whispered out in horror as he sat on the bed he was given. He was staying with the Seo family, their oldest son taking his place back home. All he felt was regret as he watched the boy he has to share a room with, Kyler, talk to a boy named Brucks. A lot of decisions were made, and all of them are regretful.
"So, Alessandro—" Kyler asked, stopping after he said the boys name to laugh like it was the most amusing thing every. "Your hair's so long you look like a girl." They both laughed again.
Alessandro just stared at them, unimpressed, "Sei un imbarazzo."
"What does that mean?"
"You're an embarrassment."
"...oh."
━━
"SO, I NEVER HAD ANY SIBLINGS, SO THERE WASN'T REALLY AN EXCHANGE MADE."Eleonora and Giovanni shared a glance as the boy, Demetri, started to ramble. "My mom was just worried about me because my old best friend joined Cobra Kai— which is a karate dojo. Do they have those in Italy? Anyways. He became an asshole and tried to beat me up in the mall with his little posse. Which didn't effect me at all, by the way. I am a badass. I am the baddest ass. You know? Anyways, what are your names?"
"I'm Eleonora and he's my brother Giovanni. We were just wondering w—"
"You know I'm Italian? I mean, I don't know the language and I've never been there. But I know my dad is full Italian so that makes me half..."
As the boy continued to ramble, Giovanni turned to his sister with an annoyed look on his face. "Capisco perché il suo amico ha cercato di picchiarlo." (I understand why his friend tried to beat him up).
The blond girls jaw dropped, "Non fare il calzone, Giovanni!"(Don't be a dick, Giovanni).
Demetri stopped talking, looking at the siblings, confused, "What did he say?"
"Um, your friend sounds like a asshole."
"Oh, he definitely is. He even got this mohawk and he..."
━━
"SHIT, THAT'S STRONG." DAWSON FERRARI sighed out, leaning back on the lawn chair he sat in with a blunt in his hand.
"It's vegan and lower in calories," The short brunette girl giggled, taking a hit of her own blunt.
"Huh, really? I didn't know weed has calories."
"Oh, I'm Moon!" She blinked, her eyes wide when she realized they never introduced themselves to each other. "You're a lot less annoying than my step-sister."
"Dawson," The black haired boy laughed. "Do you think your step-sister is driving my family insane?"
"Probably."
"Fantastic."
