Disclaimer: I am sorry to inform you, but the great and almighty Butch Hartman owns and created Danny Phantom. And sadly.. I'm not him.


_Sam's POV_

I cannot believe that just happened. It couldn't have happened. It shouldn't have happened. Why me? What did I ever do to deserve this? I may be into dark things, but I've always defended small defenseless creatures. I've always done what I believed was right. So why did my worst nightmare come true? It's not like I've been bad...

It's not supposed to be like this! If this was a fairytale then Danny would have saved me by now. But this isn't a fairytale, and I don't even think Danny cares that I'm gone.

Dont believe me? Well why don't you ask Paulina about it! 'Cause Danny totally just hit on her, and she hit on him back! Now they have a date. And my life is ruined.

I was stupid to think Danny might actually try to help me; that he might actually care enough about me to that think he needed to save me. And though I despise the thought of my life being a fairytale, I can't help but admit I was somewhat expecting Danny to be my Prince Charming. But this isn't Cinderella; I'm not going to go back to being goth at the stroke of midnight, because what I did to myself is going to take just a wee bit longer to go away.

My life isn't like Rapunzel's; if I just sit around waiting all day for someone to save me, nothing's going to happen. I'm not Ariel though; I'm not so adventurous that I would go out and take matters into my own hands. And I am definately not an author; I can't just use a bunch of metaphors and similes to get rid of my problems.

I'm Sam Manson though, that's good right? I may not be perfectly poised with happily ever afters like all of the princesses, but I'm clever enough to get myself out of this mess. Right? I may not be pretty like Paulina, or smart like Valerie, but I have enough common sense to survive as a popular kid, no matter how much it disgusts me.

I can make it out of this mess. I know I'll be able to. I just have to play my cards right.

I looked up to see the other A-Listers throwing their stuff away, I followed and threw away the salad I hadn't even touched. Lunch was over so it was time to head to my next class.

I was about to head to my locker to get my books, but then Star and Paulina ran up to me.

"Sam wait up!" Star called towards me. I 'waited up' and once they caught up to me we started to walk down the hallway towards our lockers.

"What were you thinking about during lunch Sam? You were seriously spaced." Paulina asked.

Okay, just play your cards right Sam. I looked at her and innocently said "Was I? I hadn't noticed. I've just been seriously freaking out about that English report Lancer assigned us, it's gonna take me forever to finish!"

Then they both looked at eachother and laughed. (Woah, de sha vu much?) Then, inbetween giggle fits, Star said "Sam... Oh, you're just too funny! We A-Listers don't do homework. We have people to do that for us! Duh!"

I let out a small chuckle as I replied "Well, I could get used to that."

Then we went to our lockers and grabbed our stuff, and started to head to our next classes. Paulina had Science, where as Star and I had Math. I also had that class with Tucker and Danny. Actually, now that I think about it, me, Danny, and Tucker have all our classes together. That used to be a good thing, but now.. I don't even want to think about it.

Once we got to the classroom I immediantly took my seat. After class started, and almost all of the kids in the room were asleep, a note landed on my desk. I swear if it's Danny again...!

I looked around the class for a minute before opening it and reading it.

Dear Sam,

Hey, It's Star. I just wrote this note to make sure we were hanging out after school, and because I'm SO bored. Math sucks.

-xoxo Star

I giggled at Star's ending, then began to write back

Dear Star,

Yeah, we're still hanging out after school. And I'm bored too. But it's not Math that sucks, it's our Math teacher. I swear, the guy could make Danny Phantom seem boring if he were teaching a class on him.

From Sam

I didn't know why I had the urge to bring Danny into my note, but I did. I waited for a minute or two before another note appeared on my desk

Dear Sam,

Okay, but where are we hanging out at? We can't hang out at my place because the place is being fumigated. Oh, and don't tell Paulina we're hanging out, because if you do she'll get all clingy and come. And lol that last part about Mr. Rosser was so true!

-xoxo Star

I shook my head once I read she had used our Math Teacher's name. Mr. Rosser.

Dear Star,

I guess we could hang out at my house? My parents are rarely ever home, so we would have a bunch of privacy and stuff. And don't worry I won't tell her. How can you expect me to even be nice to her after she made a date with Danny? I want to rip her head off!

From Sam

I passed her the note and she sent me a thumbs-up signal from her desk. I looked at the clock. 5 more minutes of torture.

Ughhhh...


10th Chapter:)

Sam and Star are becoming bestest buds! lol I feel kind of bad for putting Sam through all of this... You know, the cutting, and breakdown, and losing her friends, then getting her heart broken. But after every storm theres a rainbow!(: Okay, maybe that's not true, theres not ALWAYS a rainbow... but still. That doesn't mean Sam won't have a rainbow! Wait, does Sam even like rainbows? Hm...

Well, thanks to the four people who reviewed. It really makes my day to see people like my work *wipes tear*. So maybe you can review and make my day? Pwetty Pweaseee...

lol Since I didn't answer all of the cliched questions I asked in the last chapter, I guess we'll try to answer those next chapter! Next chapter will basically just be Sam and Star having girl talk. I CAN'T WAIT! *jumps up and down like a schoolgirl*

Damn.. I'm just getting more and more peppy each chapter!
