A Little Ice Cream Always Helps

A Oneshot

Tucker sighed.

He sat on a bench in the park. Alone. Danny had managed to muster up some courage and asked Sam if she wanted to go to the Nasty Burger with him. Without Tucker.

Tucker checked the clock that was installed on his PDA. 4:05snack time. Tucker glanced at the empty bag of chips that lay beside him on the park bench. Done.

Watch Techno Today. Done.

Finish that History report for Lancer. Surprisingly done.

Tucker sighed again as he clipped his PDA back onto his belt. He had been feeling kind of depressed lately. Danny was finally coming out of his "Clueless" stage and was starting to notice Sam. As a result Tucker was feeling more and more like a third wheel.

Tucker didn't notice when someone came up to him.

" Hey Foley."

Tucker's head snapped up.

In front of him was Valerie Grey, sworn enemy of Danny Phantom and past "Girlfriend" of Danny Fenton.

Concern flashed across her face when she saw Tuckers face. She sat down next to him.

"What's the matter Foley?" she asked, "I don't think I've ever seen you so down." She paused for a moment." Except for that time you couldn't get that new PDA," she added with a grin.

"I'm fine" Tucker said quickly. "It's just kinda boring..."

"Because Danny and Sam are on an unofficial date?" finished Valerie. It was more of a statement than a question.

Tucker raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"How did you-?"

"Tucker, the entire school knows. Danny and Sam dating is the news of the millennium," Valerie interrupted.

She stood up suddenly.

"I was just heading to the computer cafe to play some DOOMED, do you want to come?" Valerie asked.

"And maybe get some ice cream later," Tucker asked shyly. "My treat," he added.

Valerie blushed slightly. "Sure" she replied just as shyly.

Tucker adjusted his beret. "Well than, what are we waiting for, lets go!"

Then both he and Valerie raced out of the park. And both of them were blushing.

Well there you go folks. Tevagirl 16 is back in business! At least for now...

Anyway I thought that Tucker was feeling underappreciated so I decided to write a oneshot about them. Review and remember no flames!
