Second Part to the the story Bella Feels Broken. Has to do with Danny Phantom as in the ghosts and stuff so don't give me crap about it.
Connor Feels Confused
"Everyone knows I'm in over my head, over my head, with eight seconds into overtime, she's on your mind, she's on your mind, she's on your mind."
I walked through the hallways of Casper High, my good buddy Josh was following behind me. Josh had black hair and I had dirty blond hair. Girls were staring at me, and boys just glared at me, though I had no idea why. I wasn't that cool; except my best friend Josh had told me about a million times that about every girl in our school had a crush on me. I didn't really care though, it's not like any of those girls would ever be "the one".
I sighed and stared at the ground.
I shouldn't have been born for so many people to love me. My grandparents barely even liked me.
I had been born when my mother was only sixteen. I had ruined all of her future plans, going to Harvard, or Yale…some of those big colleges. She said it had been her fault, but I knew the truth. I was a problem child, a mistake, not meant to be born. She was thirty years old and had a fourteen year old child. Ha…my dad wasn't even around to help. He had left her the second he found out that she was pregnant.
At least my grandparents tried to step in to help. Not really liking the idea. At first they had been furious at her, and whenever I was around them they still grimaced at the fact that I was born.
I sighed again.
The only person who truly appreciated me was my uncle Danny. He was so nice, especially since he found out about the "accident". Jazz, him, and Josh were the only people who knew. If my grandparents ever found out, well, let's just say they didn't even know about my uncle Danny.
I sighed again, and stared at my shoes.
BAM!!!
I fell backwards and saw Josh's shoes right beside my face.
I looked up to see who I had ran into and noticed a girl with blond hair and green eyes. I caught my breath.
She was so pretty.
I shook my head to get the thought out.
"JEEZ KID, WHY DON'T YOU WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!?!" She yelled at me.
My mouth hung open, how dare she talk to me like that? Why can't she be a normal girl and act all blushy and crap…which I realized, made me like her even more.
"Excuse me!?!" I shot back at her when we were both standing up. "You ran into me!"
Which I didn't know if it had been entirely true since I hadn't been watching where I was going either.
She glared at me. "I DID NOT, NOW MOVE!" She pushed past me.
I know I had to do something. I liked her already, and I would probably never see her again.
Without thinking I grabbed her arm and accidentally made her drop her books.
"WHAT THE HELL!?!" She angrily turned around and glared me at me.
Flustered I let go of her arm, and stared at the ground, "Sorry, I didn't mean to knock your books down."
I turned around and started walking in the direction I had been going, Josh followed me.
"Dude, I can't believe you ran into her like that." Josh told me for what felt like the hundredth time that day. I sat down beside him at lunch.
"Thanks for reminding me, why don't we just print it out in the newspaper." I replied back sharply.
"So, do you like her?"
I spit out the milk that I had been drinking, and turned to face Josh who was sitting beside me.
"What!?!"
He shrugged, "I mean, it looked like you liked her a little bit."
I sighed, "I don't know. It's not like I'm gonna get a chance to talk to her again, but yeah, I think that I did like her."
I turned to face Josh, and saw that he was grinning.
"I knew it! So Connor finally has a crush."
"No I don't," I sighed, "I'll probably never see her again. I was a fool for thinking that."
Josh shrugged again, "Whatever dude."
"Grandpa, Grandma, mom told me to come to your house!" I shouted throughout the almost empty house. My voice echoed throughout it, and I sighed.
I threw my backpack onto the blue couch, and walked upstairs.
I was surprised to here some people talking up in Danny's old room.
I opened the door to Danny's old room and was surprised to see Sam sitting on his bed, and Danny pacing around the room.
"Danny!" I shouted and ran towards him and gave him a hug. He hugged me back, and I could tell that he was smiling. He let go of me, and I looked up at him.
"What are you doing here so early?" I asked and Sam and Danny exchanged nervous glances.
"Well," Danny said slowly, "I asked Sam to marry me, and she said yes."
"FINALLY!" I shouted, and saw the surprised look on their faces.
"O come on! It's been TEN YEARS PEOPLE! TEN YEARS SINCE YOU STARTED DATING!"
Sam and Danny blushed slightly.
"Did you guys tell Tucker?"
"Tell me what?" Tucker emerged from the doorway. "About the marriage, yeah, I already knew. So, who's going to be the best man?"
"We were hoping that Connor could be." Sam said, and Tucker about cried. He looked helplessly towards Danny.
"My little sis is going to be the maid of honor, she's fourteen, and we were thinking that Connor could be the best man since the maid of honor and the best man have to dance together at the wedding." Sam continued.
"WHAT!?!" I spun around to face her and looked helplessly at Danny. He shrugged and I sighed. Tucker had on the same expression as me.
"Why, why, why? Dude, you could've had Jazz be the maid of honor and me the best man. It would've been the perfect opportunity to dance with her!" Tucker sat on Danny's desk chair and put his head in his hands.
I glared daggers at Danny and Sam.
"I haven't even met Sam's little sister!" I whined.
"Her name's Bella, and I think that you'll like her…if you make a good impression." Sam said quietly.
"What exactly is a good impression?" I asked, afraid of the answer.
"Well, she has an attitude, and you don't want to get on her bad side." Sam answered slowly.
Great, just another problem that I needed, Danny had no idea what he had gotten me into.
Sam called her little sister to tell her the good news and I asked Danny if I could go with Josh to the Nasty Burger.
Danny said it would be alright, so Josh and I walked towards the Nasty Burger.
When we walked through the doors I saw her there, standing at the counter waiting to order. I smiled, and Josh must've noticed this because he elbowed me and said, "Dream girl at twelve o' clock."
I flicked him on the nose, and walked over to an empty register thing.
Josh and I both ordered, but I couldn't take my eyes off of that girl.
"Why don't you talk to her?" Josh pushed me.
"No way,"
"Come one, she's right there."
"Fine, if it'll make you happy."
I slowly walked over to the girl. She must've noticed me coming as she began to panic. In an instant her food was on the counter. She grabbed it quickly and walked to the farthest place away from me.
I sighed and walked back over to Josh.
"No luck?"
I nodded.
"Can we sit over by her?" I asked.
"Sure, why not." Josh shrugged.
We walked over to a couple tables away from her when we got our food.
"So how was it fighting Box Lunch at school on Monday?"
"Tiring, especially the part when Angeline came all over me after I was done."
Josh started laughing, "Like she has a chance with you."
I joined in the laughter, "I know."
I noticed the girl staring at me, and I smiled.
To my surprise this time she smiled back at me.
I knew that it would happen before it happened. She was aiming to lean her elbow against the table, but she ended up falling on the floor.
After I realized that she hadn't been hurt, I started laughing a friendly laugh, and Josh joined me.
Her face was red, but she looked up at us and smiled.
I motioned to Josh and we walked over to her table and set our trays down onto the table.
"Are you going to get up?" Josh asked her, and I saw her face get redder.
"Uh…yeah…heh-heh…sorry," She quickly slipped into the seat that she had been sitting in, and we sat across from her.
"S-sorry about this morning," She stuttered, and I realized that she was talking about when we crashed. I remembered Josh reminding me about it all friggin day.
"Oh, that…it's nothing," I glared over at Josh hoping that he would get the hint, but he merely shrugged, and I sighed.
"This is my friend Josh," I told the girl as I pointed towards him.
"Hi," Josh replied smartly and waved at the girl.
I rolled my eyes and held out my hand, "And my name's Connor."
The girl stared at my hand and then up at me, "C-Connor?" She stuttered.
"Yeah, what's your name? Do you even remember who you are?" I smiled and she laughed sheepishly.
"Uh…yeah, my name is…" She stuttered. I saw her beginning to panic, and I was wondering why she was.
"I'm…uh…Amanda…yeah," She shook my hand.
"Nice to meet you Amanda," I said as we stopped shaking hands.
My hand felt extremely warm after that, and I tried to shake the feeling away.
"You too," She replied, though she didn't seem certain about it.
I started to bite into my cheeseburger when I noticed Amanda banging her head on the table.
She lifted her head up and Josh and I were staring at her.
"Uh…sorry," She said embarrassed.
"What are you planning on doing this weekend?" Josh asked her.
This struck a nerve. Josh knew that I was busy preparing for the stupid wedding that my uncle was having. I glared at him when he looked over at me.
"Oh…uh, well…to be honest…nothing," She replied.
"You could hang out with us…" Josh offered.
I looked at the ground, I couldn't hang out on Saturday because of the stupid rehearsal or whatever, and I couldn't hang out on Friday, because I'd be buying a stupid outfit for the wedding, and I definitely couldn't hang out on Sunday because it was a school night.
"I can't do anything all weekend. I have to help my uncle with his stupid wedding, and then I have to meet Bella. That'll be loads of fun!" I said steaming.
"Who's Bella?" She asked me.
I looked up at her, "This girl I'm supposed to dance with at the wedding reception or something. My uncle Danny is getting married to someone named Sam, and I have to dance with Sam's little sister."
I saw her shift uncomfortably in her seat.
"Why is meeting Bella a bad thing," She asked me.
"Because Sam said that Bella has a bit of an attitude problem…" I answered.
"Oh…well I'm sure that Sam just doesn't understand Bella," She replied sharply. I took it as a hint to change the subject.
"Hey, Amanda, can I have your phone number?" I asked her as I smiled at her. She smiled back at me.
I was beginning to love that smile.
"Sure," She replied, and we all exchanged phone numbers, email address, and IM thing's, which is the same thing as your email address.
Sure enough right when I was going to invite her over to my house, (A/N: Yes, good thing for Bella, because Sam and Danny would've been there), a heavy wisp of green breath flew out of my mouth, and I recognized it as the "ghost sense" that my uncle Danny had described to me.
I exchanged a nervous glance with Josh, and looked back at Amanda.
"I gotta go Amanda. I'll talk to you later."
Josh and I quickly dumped our trays out and ran out off the building.
"Beware! I am Box Lunch!"
I groaned, "I JUST FOUGHT HER ON MONDAY!" I whined to Josh.
He just shrugged, "I'll let you handle this, talk to you later."
He walked off and I sighed, raising my arms.
"Transform into Phantom!" I shouted my battle cry, (A/N: Hey, you try coming up with something better), as the white rings flew over my body, transforming me into my ghost-half.
I looked just like Danny Phantom when he transformed into his ghost-half, except that my costume didn't have a symbol, my hair had turned black, and my eyes had turned blue. Ironically, I was what Danny Fenton would look like if he put his ghost-half costume on.
I punched Box Lunch onto the ground, and pulled out my thermos.
"DANNY PHANTOM! YOO-HOO!" I groaned, not Angeline.
I quickly sucked Box Lunch into my thermos as Angeline made her way over towards me.
I saw Amanda walking out the doors of the Nasty Burger, and regretted just ditching her like that.
"CENRON! CENRON WAIT!"
Angeline wrapped her arms around me and soon as she was five inches away, and I tried to push her off of me.
"Hey, Angeline, who's your boyfriend," Amanda asked her.
I glared at Amanda. She was sarcastic. I'd have to remember that.
However, Angeline didn't see the sarcasm as she started to grin.
I disappeared, and then reappeared in front of Amanda, a trick Danny had taught me. It came in handy too.
"Well, thanks for getting right in my face," Amanda took a few steps backwards.
"Who are you?" I asked her, I really don't know why I did. I think I was just curious of how she would react to me.
"I think the better question is who are you?" She shot back at me and smiled. I smiled back at her.
"My name's Cenron Phantom, you can just call me Ren." I only let Danny call me that as a nickname.
"Ren, isn't that a giiirrl name?" She teased.
I grimaced, knowing that she was right, and then I shrugged, not really caring because I knew that she was just teasing.
"You still didn't tell me who you were." I said.
"Right now, you don't really need to know," She replied.
I knew I wasn't going to get an answer from her.
"Very well then, see ya around."
I disappeared, and then reappeared in my grandparents' house.
"Connor, is that you?" I heard Danny ask from behind me. I turned around and saw him.
"MY PARENT'S ARE HOME! QUICKLY CHANGE BACK!"
I transformed back into my human self just as my grandparents walked through the door to Danny's old room.
"Jack, are you sure you checked all the calculations? It said that there was a ghost in here, but only Danny, Sam, and Connor are in the room." My grandma asked him.
"Hmm? Something must've gone wrong; I'll get right on it." He rushed downstairs.
My grandma looked me over, "hmmphed" and then followed my grandpa downstairs.
"Whew, that was close. Connor, you know that you shouldn't be in ghost form when you're in this house, it's dangerous." Danny scolded me.
"I know…" I stared at the ground.
Why did I have to lie…
