Amanda walked into the house and was met withthe soft sound of her 50 Cent
cd playing. Creasing her brow she didn't bother taking off her shoes or
dropping her bag she went searching for the source of the music. Walking
into the kitchen she found Scott making dinner.
"Dad?"asked Amanda like something was seriously wrong.
"Hey sweetie, how was dance?"asked Scott.
"Good. Dad do you know what you're listening to?"asked Amanda.
"Oh yeah,"said Scott noting the music as he stopped stiring the pot he was attending,"I found it on the coffee table and I figured I'd find out what you found so appealing about it."
"Okay,"said Amanda slowly as she set her bag down on the floor.
"Well you always listen to this rap stuff, figured I'd give it a try,"said Scott.
"Well no offense Dad, but I really don't think it's your thing,"said Amanda as she searched the fridge for a drink.
"I figured that,"said Scott smiling as Amanda closed the fridge with an apple juice box in her hands,"So how is dance coming? I heard you were really turning the team into something good."
"Yeah, it's good. Like they got the talent and all it's just showing them how to use it,"said Amanda. Scott smiled at his daughter, he was happy she found something healthy at school. He had known how much she loved dancing and had constantly offered to pay for dance lessons for her to Cate but he was always shot down from giving his daughter the one thing she wanted.
"Well that's good, maybe you guys will get to perform at some of the basketball games,"said Scott.
"A few girls were mensioning that,"said Amanda shrugging,"We'll see, I don't want them to get up there in front of the school and harsh blow it."
"You girls will do fine,"said Scott reasurringly.

After dinner Amanda had Scott drive her over to Jessica's for a few hours to hang out and mainly talk about her new relationship with Harry. The two girls sat in Jessica's room braiding each other's hair for the crimped effect the next day.
"So you two are like an item now?"asked Jessica.
"No not really,"said Amanda as she tied off Jessica's hair.
"Well then what are you?"asked Jessica.
"I dunno, I guess people who are kinda together but aren't. We're like interest in each other exclusively,"said Amanda.
"Okay, makes no sense, but okay,"said Jessica.
"We make it appear more complicated than it appears,"said Amanda.
"Yeah because screwing around with your teacher when your dad is the principal is totally not complicated,"said Jessica sarcastically.
"Shut up,"said Amanda tugging on her hair as she braided it.
"Hey be nice,"shot Jessica,"Hey wouldn't it be weird if you got pregnant with Harry's baby? Oh man that'd be enough for me to drag my ass back to highschool for class."
"Ha ha, well never gonna happen, I've got the shot,"said Amanda,"Which reminds me I gotta go to the clinic soon to get my next one, you wanna come?"
"Sure, you plan on getting busy soon?"asked Jessica raising her eyebrow.
"I said slow,"said Amanda tugging her hair again.
"Yeah but slow for you is like a day,"said Jessica.
"Screw you, now I'm going to fuck up your hair,"said Amanda.
"Ah you could do that without even trying,"said Jessica smiling. Amanda scrowled at her playful and smacked her arm.

The next day Amanda walked into Danny's class and found Marty and Karen waiting for her there.
"Okay what is this everyone stalk Aje day?"asked Amanda as she set her bag down.
"Did you hear from Miranda last night?"asked Karen quickly,"We couldn't get ahold of you."
"No, she said she was going out with Andy,"said Amanda looking at them oddly as Danny made his way over to find out what was going on with the unusual meeting.
"She called me at like ten crying, before she could say anything the phone hung up on her,"said Karen,"I called her cell phone back but I just got her voice message. I called her mom this morning but you know her,"
"Unless it's her who gives a fuck,"said Amanda confirming she knew the attitude of Miranda's mother.
"Exactly, but I eventually got Miranda's little brother on the phone and he said she never came home,"said Karen.
"Look maybe it's not this bad, maybe her and Andy had a fight and made up and she ended up crashing at his house,"said Marty.
"That's the thing, I called Andy and he told me he didn't know where the whore was and he didn't give a fuck,"said Karen.
"If he did anything to her I'll kill him,"said Amanda picking her bag up,"Mr.Hanson I'm gonna be absent." Danny bit his lip and nodded, he had overheard most of their conversation and understood. Amanda walked out of class followed by Karen and Marty.
"Where the hell are we going to find her?"asked Amanda.
"Well after her mom and her brother go to school her house is empty maybe she went back there,"said Karen,"She's gotta go home at some time."
"I guess,"said Amanda.
"Exactly, since Andy was home she probably didn't go to a hospital or fall in a ditch otherwise she would've reported it,"said Marty. The two girls solemnly nodded and the three of them made their way out of the school and on their way to Miranda's house.
"Dad?"asked Amanda like something was seriously wrong.
"Hey sweetie, how was dance?"asked Scott.
