Crucial Changes

Chapter Two

BY: DESIREE (DANNYANDSAM4LIFE)

'Stupid me, stupid, stupid, STUPID me!' was the words Sam Manson played threw her head over and over the next morning at breakfast. She had made the biggest mistake ever by keeping her mouth shut, she had even lost Danny as a friend and he was the love of her life.

"Sam honey, is anything wrong?" Mrs. Manson asked her fourteen year old daughter while they were at the breaskfast table.

"No nothing much, just got in a lil' fight with Danny," Sam lied. LITTLE? Not! C'mon, their friendship was in crucial jeoporady because of her and she called it a little fight... HA! What was Sam thinking. "Anyway, I gotta go, don't want to be late for school," Sam said getting up from the table and grabbing her books.

"But you haven't even eaten any of your breakfast and school doesn't started for another seventy-six minutes," Mrs. Manson said.

"Well, I'm not hungry and I'm walking to school, plus I want to study in the libary before classes start," Sam lied and ran out the door. She was walking to school yes, but was she going to study when her heart was broken? No! She was going to try to come up with a way to make Danny forgive her. Like was that ever possible? Yes! Of course it is.

Sam slowly walked to school. All she could think about was Danny and the horrible mistake that she made. 'I should of told him, I should of told him, I should of told him!' she was so upset that she started to cry on her way to school. She decided to go for a walk before she took the bus that would bring her to school. There was no way she was going to study for a test that she didn't even have for a couple more days while she was in this mess. Walking usually helped Sam clear her mind and made her feel better but she didn't think anything could make her feel better now, unless it was Danny.

The time finally came for Sam to walk to school and when she got there she saw Danny talking to Paulina. It looked like they were aruging.

"Where were you last night?" Paulina questioned Danny.

"Not with you," Danny answered rudely.

"And why not?" Paulina out her hands on her hips.

" Maybe I didn't want to go," Danny looked at Paulina. "Or maybe I knew that you was only using me,"

"What? That's a lie! Why would I use you, I mean, it's not like it would of worked anyway, Rick and I are totally over, but I wanted to make him jealous but you ruined it!" Paulina screamed. "And I had to stand there alone, looking stupid,"

"So you did use me, you know Paulina ... I don't even know why I agreed to go out with you but now at least I made you look stupid," Danny laughed.

"And I don't know why I picked you to make Rick jealous because who would be jealous over a loser like you," Paulina yelled.

"I would," Sam stepped in. She hated to see Danny getted picked on and she couldn't stand Paulina.

Danny looked at Sam and smiled.

"Oh, so it looks like Danny has someone who actually loves him ... anyway, are you the little scank that ratted me out because if you are..." Paulina galred at Sam.

"So what if I am? I ain't afriad of someone shallow like you," Sam laughed.

Paulina slied. "Why you little..." then Paulina jumped on Sam and started pulling on her raven black hair. " I hate you, you ugly goth girl," she yelled.

"At least I'm not shallow, at least I don't need popularity for friends and behind all that make-up I bet your uglier than a scoplian, of course, your that shallow you'd die with no water..." Sam didn't know if what she was saying made sense but she hated Paulina with a passion.

Paulina slapped Sam hard across the face. "You really need to grow up and actually where clothes for girls and to look pretty, like me," Paulina said.

That was it. "I'd never want to like you, and I'm happy the way I am, I would never change," Sam punched Paulina in the giving her a bloodly noise.

"Ah!" Paulina screamed as the blood dripped on her white shirt. "This shirt is new," she yelled.

"So...? You think I care?" Sam got up.

Paulina started to cry and ran to her girl group and then the jocks came up to Sam. "What the heck do you losers want?" Sam asked.

"You hurt Paulina and now you are going to pay!" Dash, the blonde jock leader held out his fist.

"Leave her alone," Danny yelled. He was mad at Sam but she stood up for him and he couldn't want anybody hurt her.

"Oh, and what's you going to do about it?" Dash cocked up an eyebrow.

"For one, your going to hit a girl, that would prove your not a man, two, if you hurt Sam I'll tell everyone your greatest fear and I'll tell them what you have in your closest," Danny looked at Dash.

"Like you know, well you know about the teddy bears," Dash whirspered.

"Oh okay, so you won't mind if I come over and steal your night light," Danny whirspered to Dash.

"WHAT? How'd you know?" Dash was shocked.

" I have my ways. Now, do we have a deal, you leave Sam alone and I'll keep your secret," Danny eyed Dash who nodded.

"Very well, it's a deal," Dash shook Danny's hand.

The bell rang and classes finally started. Sam walked to English without saying a word to Danny. Why didn't Danny stop Paulina from pulling on her hair and calling her names. Was it because of his stupid crush on her? Sam was confused but all in all Danny had dirt on Dash and he used it to protect her. Danny walked in English and sat down by Sam. Sam took out her excercise book and she started to write Danny a note.

Hey!

Listen, I know that we're not on good terms at the moment but thanks for picking up for me.

I really am sorry for last night and I hope that we can work things out because our friendship means everything to me.

Gotta go,

Sam

P.S: Write back

Sam tore the page out of her excercise and gave Danny the note and she turned around in her seat, waiting for Danny to write back. When he was done he passed her a piece of paper. The note said:

Sam,

Last night a lot of things changed our lives but, your still my best friend. I know you didn't want to hurt me and that's why you kept the secret but I wish you told me in the first place, anyway, I'm sorry for what I said last night. Come over today, so then we can work things out. As for this morning, you picked up for me and I couldn't let Dash hurt you.

Gotta go,

Danny

PS: What'd you mean by you'd be jealous over me?

Sam blushed. 'Ooops... oh great...' Sam smiled but then Mr. Lancer walked in the class. "As you all notice Paulina Stanhope isn't here and there is someone I want to see, well two... Daniel Fenton and Samantha Manson," he annoced.

Sam and Danny looked at each other. "Uh-Oh!"

In the office Sam and Danny knew they were in trouble. Sam figured that she'd be suspended for hitting Paulina, but it's not like she really cared but still, she was kind of worried, her parents would ground her, and that wou;dn't be good at all.

"Okay," Mr. Lancer began. "I understand that ..."

Okay, that's all for chapter two. If it seems like it's getting boring then tell me because I have this whole story planned out and I have a lot of exciting chapters planned for the future. So, I know where this is going but I don't know all the details yet, but I'll tell you something, things aren't always what they seem... lol... God Bless everyone! XOXO
