Ava walked up to where Danny was standing, looking at something in his hand.
"Hey, Danny." He turned around, his hand moving behind his back.
"Hey, Ava, what's up?"
"Oh. not much... Have you decided weather you're going to the dance or not yet?"
"No, not yet."
"Oh, ok..." The bell rang, and Ava and Danny walked toward the door. Danny slipped what he was holding in his hand into the nearby trash can. Sam stood up from behind it, and pulled the lid off. Picking up the note that had Danny's name on it, he tore it open to read the request from a girl in their math class. Danny could have been in the higher math class with Ava, but he had just flunked the test on purpose.
Sam stuffed the note into his pocket, and put the lid back on the trash can. Turning, he saw Luke looking at him.
"What? I can't dig around in the trash can?"
"Ok man, but eventually Danny's going to figure out you're stalking him."
"SHHH!" Sam put a finger up to his lips, and glanced around. "I'm gathering important evidence! And its not like Danny's the only one I'm stalking."
"You mean you're stalking another person?"
"Well, Ava to be exact, but for a good cause!"
"Oh, really?"
"Yes! Don't you get it? Ava likes Danny, and has been trying to get him to ask her to the dance, but Danny doesn't get it!"
"Now that you mention it, yeah... You're right!"
"So, to get them together, I need your help, and unfortunately Parker's, too."
"I'll see what I can do to get Parker on board."
"Great, after that, we need to meet up. I've got an attack plan, but it needs some fine tuning."
"Got it. We can meet in the Helicarrier after school. The only person in the lab at that time is Dr. Connors, and he's on vacation for the next 5 days."
"Right. Now, I just need to gather the final evidence..." Sam walked away, and Luke shook his head. He just hoped Danny didn't find out what Sam had been doing, or Ava, for that matter.
