I loved all of the reviews last chapter. Just to let you know I kind of consider this a set-up chapter, but who knows. Trust me, the next chapter will be way better.

Disclaimer: I don't own Dp. Just Cassie, and all of my OCs.


The week had gone by so fast, for it was already Thursday, and Sam sat at the breakfast table with her parents. Sam wore jeans, along with a dark purple blouse. Her hand played with the necklace that Danny had given her. She fiddled with it, and then dropped it; only to resume moments later. Her actions got on her mother's nerves.

"Samantha, stop playing with the necklace." She blushed; she didn't even realize she was playing with it. The only thing on her mind was last night.

"Where did you get that necklace anyway?" Sam chocked on her food, but remained steady.

"Um…yes, isn't it lovely? Dann- Dash gave it to me for our anniversary." She lied, and cursed mentally for almost slipping up to her parents. She held such a smile that they believed her…or almost everyone believed her. Her mother raised an eyebrow, but said nothing on the matter.

"If you keep playing with it; it will break. You don't want that do you?" Sam immediately left it go; as Danny's words rang in her head.

'As long as you wear that necklace around your neck, you'll be my girlfriend.'

"No, I wouldn't want that." She replied. The conversation was dropped.


Danny closed his locker door. Cassie and Tucker hadn't arrived yet, and Danny thought it of his chance to be with Sam. He had to at least spend some time with her. He turned to come face to face with Dash, Kwan, and another one of Dash's junkies named Steven.

"Well looky here, my favorite new playmate."

"Dash do you mind? I have better places to be."

"Why we were just starting to play!" Dash shoved Danny against the lockers, and then pushed him to the ground.

"You're not going anywhere." Danny managed to help himself up.

"You think you're pretty smart don't you." He started to push Danny some more, but this time his cronies joined in too.

"Hey, Hey, Hey, cut it out." A young teacher Danny didn't even recognize stopped the evolving fight.

"Is there a problem here?" Dash pushed past Danny leaving.

"No." The teacher held Danny's shoulder.

"Are you ok?" Danny just nodded watching Dash leave.

"Yeah fine." He walked past the teacher like nothing had happened, when he saw Sam looking at him in the distance before she walked into the Janitor's closet. When no one was looking he slipped in there too. Sam turned to him, and captured his lips by surprise. She pulled away suddenly and rested her forehead against his.

"Why did you leave last night?"

"You were tired, and truthfully; I stayed till you fell asleep. I figured that you needed sleep."

"How very thoughtful of you." She said with a hint of sarcasm.

"You're Welcome." He said ignoring the sarcasm.

"I really do like the necklace you know." He smiled, as his hot breath lingered on her face.

"I know." He leaned in to kiss her, but she moved.

"I saw Dash and…you fight."

"Sam, I- Don't worry about it."

"He's hurting you. I can't live with myself if you get hurt."

"That's my problem. It comes with dating you. It's part of my job-description." Sam was nervous; it wasn't right for him to do this. Neither said a word as the warning bell rang.

"We should go to class." Sam spoke solemnly

"Yea, we should." Danny agreed, but he really didn't want to go. The two managed to get to class on time waiting a couple seconds in between their entrances, so no one would get suspicious. Valerie eyed Sam, as Cassie and Tucker eyed Danny. For those who did not know about them everything was perfectly normal. Dash turned around in his chair, and winked at Sam, and then glared at Danny. Sam tried to smile; she ended up succeeding, but it wasn't a real smile. Lancer saved her from any more smiling she would have to do at Dash.

"Class, I assume that you all have heard of the 10th grader Dance that is this weekend. It is set back in Romeo and Juliet's times, and is to help you get a feel for the century. I have decided to post the results for the play after the dance. Since I have full control of the decorations I have decided it to be a masked ball; just like Juliet's party in the play." The class just groaned.

"Silence." The students grew silent rapidly.

"I have decided for our next assignment to spilt in to two groups, one will represent the Capulets, and one the Monatagues. The families will write a report. I need to captains; how about Tucker and Dash. You shall pick your "Families" by picking girl, boy, girl, and boy. Dash can go first." Lancer said. Danny sent Tucker a message through his eyes; telling Tucker to pick Sam.

"Paulina." Dash started, but Tucker ignored Danny's plea.

"Cassie."

"Kwan."

"Danny."

"Sam." Danny's heart stopped. Sam tore her gaze from Danny to the floor as she stepped next to Dash. The two continued till the whole class was divided. Tucker's eyes scanned his group, and then Dash's group. Dash had all of his popular friends and Tucker had everyone else.

"Now that the groups have been decided, at the end of the class there is one paper on the report, and one on the extra credit assignment at the dance." Right after the words left his mouth did people pick up the flyer.

"Sam, wait up." Sam smiled at her friend. The first thing Valerie noticed was the necklace hanging around her neck.

"Did he give it to you?"

"Yeah." A blush managed to creep onto her face. Was it really that obvious that she liked Danny?

"Sam, do you really think it will work?"

"Valerie, what are you talking about?"

"Everyone is already starting to notice that you never hang around Dash anymore."

"I hang around Dash."

"You looked almost disgusted when he picked you."

"Why are you really here to talk about?"

"Sam…I- I wanted to warn you."

"Warm me?"

"Yes, warn you."

"About what? I think I can take care of it."

"No, be careful around Dash. Haven't you noticed that he eyes you a lot lately."

"Well, I am his girlfriend."

"Sam he's"

"You don't think that I could have both guys. You don't think I'm attractive? Am I that repulsive that I could have two guys like me?"

"You're acting like Paulina!" Sam stopped.

"I am her best friend."

"You don't want friends like that."

"Why not?" Sam's arms crossed over her chest.

" Because they use you. Paulina's been talking about you lately."

"So."

"Sam, Dash is cheating on you."

"Wh-what?"

"Sam…go look in the janitor's closet."

"You're lying; he wouldn't cheat."

"Why wouldn't he? You do. What did you think you were doing with Danny? That's no different Sam."

"Why do you even care?"

"Because I'm you're friend."

"Friends don't lie."

"You don't believe me. I dare you to go and look." Val pointed in the direction. Sam stayed right where she was at.
