I plopped down stomach first on my scarlet sheets, closing my eyes. I couldn't help thinking about that day. I kept thinking how much I couldn't stand Valerie. I mean I couldn't stand her before, but she didn't have a ray gun her hand pointed at Danny before. It was so hard to watch Danny Fenton talking so highly about school Valerie and to invite her to sit with us at lunch, but I had no idea how hard it would be to watch her chase Danny Phantom on her hover board, barely taking his afterlife away.
All I wanted to do was take his breath away, but I all I am is the vegetarian goth girl. All I wanted was to show him how much I care about him. Yes, I want him to be happy, but I want him to be happy with me. I want him to have that little smile he gets whenever he would see Valerie or Paulina. I want him to trip in front of me or even have his pants to go intangible and fall down out of nervousness. I want to be the girl he dreams about. I want to be the girl that he asks to those stupid high school dances. I want him to want to impress me, even though he knows he doesn't have to. I want him to kiss me like he means it; not to just have a fake-out make-out. I want to go steady with him when he gives me a silly class ring.
I jolted up. THE RING! I pulled it out of my pocket and looked at it. Clueless one, alright. Danny had given it to me to hold until the right moment to ask Valerie out, but I guess his heartache made him forget. I guess I should bad for him, but he doesn't know how much my heartache affects me. I looked at the ring in my palm. Gripping it, a rush of anguish and rage surged through me. I even felt a hot tear come down my cheek. I threw the ring at the floor.
I threw it so hard that it bounced back up on the bed. Ignoring the yell from my over-frosted mother about what made the noise, I noticed something. I picked it back up and looked at the "wes" inscribed inside. I had kept wondering who the heck "wes" was, but the "e" looked weird to me. I turned it over.
To my surprise, my eyes just got wide. The ring was… was for me.
Maybe it's time Clueless One should get a new nickname…
