Courtship: Day 2 Part 2

When lunch time came around Tucker wasn't really in the mood to eat. After getting lectured by Lancer for a good twenty minutes he had to run to his next class. Unfortunately he had the misfortune to run in Dash. A minute later he was walking away without his lunch money and a sore arm. Needless to say he'd been late for class and gotten a detention. And today seemed to have so much promise this morning.

"You're not eating Tuck?" Danny asked as he and Sam sat down with their trays.

"No Jock-brains over there thought he needed my lunch money more than I did." Tucker replied bitterly.

"You can have a bite of my recycled vegetable and wheatgrass stew if you want." Sam offered holding out her spoon.

Tucker glanced at the mud colored muck and actually considered it for a moment. Thankfully he was saved from taking a bite by the sound of tires slamming in front of the school. Everyone turned to look at the pizza truck that did a couple doughnuts before finally coming to a stop. As they watched a delivery guy stepped out carrying one of the biggest pizza boxes he'd ever seen.

"Dang that box is huge." Danny commented as they guy started for the school.

"Who do you think it's for?" Tucker asked his stomach growling in jealousy of that person.

After a second they both turned to look at Sam. The only rich one in their group.

"Hey it wasn't me! You know I only eat pizza if it comes from my favorite place downtown and they don't deliver." She replied defensively.

"Then who-" Danny started to ask.

"Is there a um...Tucker Foley here?!" The pizza guy yelled as he stormed into the lunch room.

All eyes now turned to him as he stood there dumbfounded.

"Yeah he's right here!" Danny shouted back causing Tucker to jump.

"What are you doing man?! That could be a prank pizza for all we know." Tucker whispered heatedly as the guy approached.

"Or it could be from your admirer who wants you to eat today." Danny replied with a roll of his eyes.

The delivery guy set the pizza down on their lunch table with a thud smiling at Tucker as he fiddled with his notepad.

"Alright I need you to sign here and here. NO worries the pizza's paid for." The guy said noticing the worry in Tucker's eyes.

"Do you know who paid for it?" Tucker asked as he signed.

"Nope just called in the order and paid for the pizza. Oh wait! He did have something he wanted me to do." The guy snapped his fingers after taking the notepad back.

Digging around in his pockets for a second the guy looked determined before pulling out a wadded piece of paper with a triumphant look on his face. After clearing his throat for a second he got down on one knee in front of Tucker.

"To my love," he recited as he read off the paper,"

See you everywhere

My circuits going haywire

My spirit longs for you.

Do you feel the same?

Does your heart flutter like mine?

I truly hope so."

When he finished Tucker was blushing terribly. Danny was trying hard not to laugh at him. And Sam was sighing like a girl from a teenage romance movie (not that he would ever tell her that). When the guy stood up he held out his hand for a tip, thankfully Sam covered for him this time, before leaving.

Once he was gone Tucker stared at the box in front of him. Gathering his courage, and with some prompting from Danny, he flipped open the top. In front of him was the largest, cheeseiest, meat lovers pizza he had ever seen. It was perfect. Miles upon miles of pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and ham made his mouth water.

Whoever his admirer was they knew him too well. By the time the bell rang again the pizza was gone demolished between him and Danny. It was one of the best gifts he had ever gotten.
