OK, thanks everyone else for ur reviews too!

Sam's dad was right, the next day, she met Tucker and I at our usual spot to meet to walk to school. She had changed her outfit though, because now she was wearing tight black jeans that had chains hanging off of them, and an extremely huge hoodie that was black with a red skull in the center.

"Hey Sam," I said, as we stood there waiting for Tucker.

"Hey."

"We missed you," I comforted her, but she didn't take any notice to it though, she just stared at the ground. I looked at my watch, and if Tucker wasn't showing up soon, we were going to have to leave without him.

"So, what have you and Tucker been doing?"
"The usual."

It felt odd, because we weren't really saying anything, and normally, we would have been talking to each other a lot more. I then heard someone running, and looked up to see Tucker coming our way. He slid to a stop in front of us, and looked at Sam.

"Wow, change in looks?" he asked her.

"Yeah, my mom and I went shopping."

"I thought you were sick! You can't go shopping if you are sick!"

"That doesn't matter."

"Yes it does. My mom wouldn't even let me think about stepping foot outside of the house if I had been gone for like, a month! Why hadn't you called in a week anyhow?"

"My mom wasn't letting me use the phone. I am grounded."

"Why? Did she think you were skipping?"

"No."

"Then why would she ground you for being sick?"

"She just did, I don't know why."

"She didn't tell you?"

"Tucker, stop asking her questions," I broke in, and Tucker just glanced at me, and could tell I was acting the same way I was the day before. This time though, he wasn't going to try and ignore it.

"Danny, what is up with you?" He asked me suspiciously.

"Nothing, she probably just doesn't want to be bothered with ten thousand questions!"

Tucker shut up, and we continued walking through silence. Once we had gotten into the school, all the kids were giving me weird looks. Chances were, most of them hadn't even noticed Sam was gone, so they could care less about her, but they all remembered what had happened the day before.

"Fenton, do that thing with your eyes again," Dash ordered, and he had his group of friends around him.

"I'm telling you, you must have been seeing things Dash," I said, and continued forward.

"Do it now Fenton, because I know your lying!"

"No, I'm not. I can't make my eyes turn green, it is impossible. Besides, if I could, wouldn't I be in a book somewhere?"

"No, because they wouldn't want a geek in a book."

"A lot of people in books are geeks. Maybe you need to take time to read a book, if you can even read."

"I can read, and you know it! Just show us, so my friends believe me!"

"Why wouldn't they believe you in the first place, huh?"

That shut him up, and he opened his mouth to say something, but no words had come out. I just turned back in the direction towards my locker, and decided today, I was going to stay in school. I had taken out my English book, and headed towards that class. Sam Tucker and I sat in desks next to each other, and sat in silence. We weren't talking much that day, and I think it is just because Sam doesn't want to, I know what is wrong with Sam, and now it is bugging me, and Tucker is lost. When class started, we were asked to read in a group of up to three people, so of coarse, we were in a group.

"Blah, blah, blah, The end! We read it, now lets talk!" Tucker said, as he closed his book up.

"Tucker! We have a test on this in two days!" I told him, and he just shrugged. Tucker was the kind of person that didn't care about his grades, and even if he didn't study, he often was really good at guessing. He was a C student most of the time, so he was at least passing all of his classes, and wasn't even trying anyhow. Sam was an all A student, and all she had to do was read the story once, and she had it down. Me on the other hand, I had to read it at least five times if I wanted to get an A, because I couldn't remember it very good. When we were talking about a subject that seemed interesting to me, I often did a lot better. But, this was like usual, a boring story, and I didn't feel like reading it any more than Tucker did. Sam was reading by herself, while Tucker and I started a conversation. Usually, she would just come into it after she had finished the story, or sometimes, she would talk and read at the same time.

"SO Danny, what do you want to do after school?" Tucker asked me, trying to not make me act 'weird' again.

"I dunno. Whatever you guys want to do."

"Sorry guys, I am grounded, can't leave the house except to go to school," Sam said, and then started reading again.

"That sucks!" Tucker said, and it was fairly loud, so Mr. Lancer and a few of the kids in the room looked at Tucker, and Tucker fell down in his chair out of embarrassment. I never knew why we even got embarrassed. It wasn't as though we were going to loose popularity or anything, since we weren't popular in one single way. It wasn't as though it could make us go lower at all actually, so I didn't get why Tucker and I would get embarrassed. Sam never did, except sometimes around us she would get a little humiliated, but she would be back to normal in about five minutes anyway. It was good to have a friend that could care less about what other people thought of her, because then, we could say just about anything to her, and she could care less.

"Yeah, I know it does, but I can't leave my house. That is why today on our walk home, the best way to stay together for a while, is to walk really slow."

"How long are you grounded for anyway?" I asked her.

"My mom said I was until she wasn't mad at me anymore. Probably a couple of months."

"A COUPLE OF MONTHS! Why that long?" Tucker shouted out again, and once again, people looked at him, but he didn't seem to notice.

"Because, my mom is just that way."

"I don't understand… You have never been grounded before! What did you do?"

"Nothing."

"Then why are you grounded?"

I just sat there, and had to listen, because I was going to see if Tucker could get Sam to say why.

"Because Tucker, it is none of your business."

"Friends don't keep secrets!" He pointed out, and he was right. We had agreed to never hold anything away from each other, which was why they had known about my ghost powers, or else I would have never told them.

"Yeah, I know, but this time, I think it is best."

"Danny told you about, you know what, and whatever you are holding away from us, can't be more bigger than that!"

"To me it is."

"Ok, fine then, I won't tell you anything anymore!" He said, and crossed his arms. Sam just shrugged, and looked back into her book to continue reading.

"You two don't need to get into a fight over it," I pointed out.

"Yeah, well, if she isn't going to tell me, then I think she shouldn't be our friends. That was one of our biggest 'rules' was to never hold secrets against each other. Besides, you told us Danny, so it would only be fair if she told us what was going on."

"I'm fine with her not telling me."

"Then your weird!"

"No, I just don't get into other peoples business."

"Did you rob from a store or something?" Tucker asked Sam.

"If I was rich, do you think I would have?"

"No… but I can't think of why you would be grounded! Why? Just tell me!"

"I told you, I don't want to," Sam said, as she closed her book up, which meant she had read it.

We only had about ten minutes left of class and we couldn't think of anything else to talk about. Well, I could have talked a lot to Sam, but not with Tucker around. We sat in silence for the rest of the hour. Once it was lunchtime, Sam asked me to come to the office with her, and I did so. She wasn't feeling good again, and wanted to call home. When we reached the office, it had that same smell like the doctor's office. I have no idea why it had that smell, but it did. Sometimes it smelt like the dentists too.

Sam walked up to the phone, and dialed her number.

"Mom, I don't feel good again," she said, and then there was a moment of silence, and Sam slammed the phone back onto the hook.

"She says I can deal with it!"

"You'll be Ok, right?"

"Yeah, I guess I can live," she moped, and I walked over to her and put my arm around her shoulder as we walked down to lunch. Sam had her arms folded across her chest, and she was staring down at the ground. I was looking ahead of us though, and I removed my arm from around her when we turned the corner to the lunchroom.

We found Tucker sitting at our usual table, and we sat down next to each other across from him. There wasn't anyone else that sat at our table with us, we had the whole table to ourselves, but we still all stayed grouped up next to each other. Tucker was eating like usual, but Sam and I never ate lunch. We hardly ate anything, which was probably why we were so skinny. Also, we weren't lazy, since we never watched TV or played video games, well, we hardly did anyhow.

"Are you going home?" Tucker asked Sam, as he swallowed some chicken he was eating.

"No, my mom won't let me. She thinks I need to just deal with it."

"To bad. Danny and I skipped yesterday."

"I heard, my dad asked me if we were supposed to have school, and I said yes, because I didn't know you two had come over."

"Hey, it's no problem. Danny didn't want to stay in school."

"No one wants to stay in school," I said.

"Very good point. I don't see why anyone would want to be in school," Tucker said, and then he shut up so he could gulp down his lunch really fast.

"Hey Danny, you think you could come over today?" Sam asked me.
"Thought you were grounded?" Tucker asked, swallowing more food.

"Yeah, but Danny can sneak into my room."

"Yeah, I'll be there," I responded.

"Thanks."

School didn't last to long after lunch, and before long, we were back outside walking. The sun was out, and there wasn't one cloud in the sky. It was a perfect day out. There was just a little breeze, and it felt so good outside.

"To bad you are stuck inside all day," I told Sam.

"Yeah, I know, but maybe you could sneak me out?"

"Yeah, I don't see why not."

"I'm gonna tell!" Tucker teased.

"You wouldn't tell on me," Sam said back to him.

"Why shouldn't I?"

"Because, you shouldn't. You have done a lot of other bad things in your life, and I will get pay-back."

"Ok, I won't tell. I wasn't going to anyway!"

"I knew you weren't going to Tucker. Friends don't tell on each other."

"Yeah, just like friends don't hold secrets!"

"Hey, I am going to tell Danny tonight."

"Then why not me?"

"Because."

"So, that means Danny is your friend, and I'm not?"

"Oh yeah, all the way!"

When we came to the part where we would split apart, Sam stayed by me.

"Ok, go throw your stuff in your house, and come with me."

"How about I just come over later tonight?"

"Because, I just want to get this done and over with."

I did as she wanted, and ran inside my house, and dropped my stuff off…

Alright! Still gonna leave you hanging! Even though, now it should be realllllllllllly obvious!
