Chapter 3: Too Busy Hunting Ghosts
Danny folded up his note the next morning. He hasn't seen Mary anywhere yet. He saw Dash, still angry, but not Mary. Sam shrugged when he looked at her. He walked to his locker, soon to see Mary at her locker a few moments later. Oh Great, Danny thought. Dash is with her.
He tried to remember what he wrote on his note. He could only remember that first he welcomed her here and that he heard she rejected Dash, and how cool that was. He sighed and closed his locker. How ironic, biology is first today, Danny thought. "Hey Danny, did you do your homework last night?" Sam asked. Danny stopped dead. "Homework?" he asked. He was busy writing the note, and fighting this stupid ghost. "Yeah, to read pages 45- 50!" Sam reminded him. "Well, what's it about?" Danny pleaded. Sam thought for a minute. "Just read it now. It's only 5 pages." She said. Danny sunk. But Tucker told him everything anyway.
He went in biology class and go really nervous. Mary was reading a book. Danny observed she looked really interested in the book. He whispered to Sam, "Go give this to Mary." Sam nodded excitedly. She walked over to Mary's desk and tapped it to make Mary look up from her book. She smiled and whispered, "From Danny" and stuffed it in Mary's hand. Mary's face lit up. She stuffed it in her pocket and continued to her book. Sam knew she was craving to read it though.
Sam came back to Tucker and Danny. "She looked very happy when she received it. What did you write?" but the teacher came in before Danny could answer. Mary put down her book, looking annoyed. Must be some book, Danny thought.
At lunch, Danny wondered if Mary would come and sit with them. Danny spotted her with her lunch tray (meat was on the menu again, luckily) coming out of the line. Dash was with her again. Danny got up, leaving his tray behind, and went up toward them. His legs just took him; he didn't really know what he was doing.
"You are one weird one, Mary." Dash was saying. Mary shook it off. "Really? I was saying you were the odd one." Danny laughed a little. That caused Dash to turn around. "What do you want Fenton?" he hissed. He grabbed Danny by the shirt. "Ahem." Mary said. She looked laid back, but Danny knew she was shy and she was surprised that she could do this. Maybe this school is easier to cope with, thought Danny. Dash looked at her, then at Danny. He didn't loosen his grip. Instead, he threw Danny at the wall. Mary gasped, but Danny was okay. "uh..." Mary said. "Does...does he always do that to you?" she said as if she was searching for words. Danny nodded and got up. "Sometimes worse." He added. Paulina walked by and Danny did his best not to drool. He sensed Mary noticed because she began to walk passed him. "Wait..." he said. Mary turned around. Danny noticed his note was in her fingers. "I was wondering if you'd sit with Tucker, Sam, and I." he continued. Mary lit up and followed him.
