Last Time: Still crying I took out my key, I walked in the door and for the first time in a long time I whimpered out, "Mommy…"

"She looked at me terrified and asked what Danny and Tucker had… "Sweetie what happened!"

"I think my heart got broken…again…"

"Sam you sounded fine over the phone."

"I know… But I heard something that I really shouldn't have…"

"Which was?" My mom asked as she stepped closer

"Was that Richard had a bet on to go out with me… "

"I'll kill him!" My mom said dead serious.

I laughed, I love my mom she always makes me feel better…

"No, mom don't…"

"Well how about pizza, lot's of junk food and a movie… your pick?"

"Ok how about '10 Things I hate about you'?"

"Sure."

My mom and I headed down to the movie room once the pizza came. My mom decided to break to silence between us and basically talk over the movie.

"Sam are you feeling any better?"

"Yeah actually…"

"So Mr. Miles told me about Open Mike Night…" Oh right Open Mike Night… I completely forgot Open Mike Night is when Cap presents some of its poetry and/or writing. I was going to do a poem about Danny then it changed to Richard… But wait… I still… I still like Danny… I know this sounds like rebound er whatever but the truth of it is Richard was just rebound… It wasn't until he kissed me that I ever thought of him that way… I guess I was in love with both of them… No, no I wasn't… I was still in love with Danny while I was with Richard… I kept comparing him to Danny in everyway… Why didn't I see it earlier? Damn I'm so stupid…

"Oh yeah can you go?" I asked my mom to get my head out of the clouds.

"I'm so sorry sweetie but the meeting I had to fly out for today has changed to that date…"

"That's ok mom…"

"Out of curiosity what were you going to do?"

"A poem… about," I smiled realizing what exactly I was going to do…"I 'm writing a poem… Just a poem…"

Julia Stiles's famous poem finally came on,

"I hate the way you talk to me,

And the way you cut your hair.

I hate the way you drive my car.

I hate it when you stare.

I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind.

I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme.

I hate it, I hate the way you're always right.

I hate it when you lie.

I hate it when you make me laugh,

Even worse when you make me cry.

I hate it that you're not around,

And the fact that you didn't call.

But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you.

Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all."

I quickly ran to get a piece of paper to write down all my ideas before I lost them.

My mom asked again "So what's the Poem about?"

"I can't tell you what it's about… But I can tell you that this poem is mainly for me."

On Monday I was dreading bumping into Richard and Paulina but then I remembered that they both had lunch on 6th period because of how our schedule works… And that they wouldn't have lunch with me until Wednesday… Perfect in the mean time I just had to not talk to him… I was headed for our usual table but then I saw the only other goth girl in school sitting alone… Cassandra… The girl Richard scarred before me. I saw Dennis the boy who had genuinely wanted her from day one on the lunch line… I had already been hurt twice, once by Danny who really didn't mean to and once by Richard the 'asshole' as his little sister had said. I walked over to her and sat down.

"Hey Cassy…"

"Oh hey Sam what are you doing here?"

"We need to talk about something…"

"Like what? Cap club?"

"No… About Richard Davis…"

"He did it again didn't he…?"

"Yeah he did… But I'm happy to say I found out early and I'm going to break up with him later… But right now all I want to talk about is you."

"Me? Sam I would never-"

"I know Cass just hear me out. I want you to give Dennis a chance… He didn't ask me to do this and I'm not saying this to be mean or hurtful. Hell I know what it's like to get your heart broken I've already gone through it once without any help from Richard. But not all guys are like him… Dennis isn't, I mean look at him he's been trying to get with you since freshmen year. And have you never noticed he hasn't given up on you."

"W-what do you mean?"

"Cass he's never gone out with another girl. He's still waiting for you to recover from the jerk."

"Look Sam I appreciate, whatever you're trying to do but Dennis and I-"Cassandra paused as if trying to find something wrong with him.

"Cassandra you don't have to be so scared anymore. I'm not. Just give the poor kid one date then at least he'll think you're getting better…"

After my advice I left her to think over what I had said… Someone should have been there to comfort her like my mom did for me. No one did, so now that I've gone through the same thing maybe she'll listen. Once I sat down Tucker, Val and Danny gave me worried looks. And it was silent for a while until Danny broke the ice.

"Why did you run away from us on Thursday? And how come you didn't answer any of our messages?"

"Well first things first I guess… On Thursday… I ran away from you guys because I found out Richard went out with me because of a bet he had with Paulina… And I guess I was too ashamed to tell you. And two my mom's flight got canceled so we spent the entire time drawing, writing and hanging out it was pretty cool." After I finished Tucker was the first one to respond this time.

"I'LL KILL HIM!"

"Tucker that's not necessary, he was just a distraction now that I look back on it plus… wait till you guys see Wednesday…"

"Girl, I know you're telling me, you're gonna kick his ass right!" Val asked

"No I thought total humiliation would do the trick."

"Sam…" Danny started, "I'm so sorry…"

"Danny… don't be." I responded "But you guys all have to come to Open Mike Night ok?"

They all responded that they would come and Danny had said that he wouldn't miss it for the world. So that was cool.

Meanwhile I left so I could make sure my plan would work out for Wednesday… I'm sorry but this boy needed a good kick in the pants!
