AN – really late on this, I realize. I'm sorry. But now I'm "on vacation" in another country and I'll find it really hard to finish it by the end of V-Day, but I will try. I fixed up stuff in concrete, which was a bit of an experiment gone wrong. Oh, and I was stuck on this chapter too, so it's short, but I really want to make my deadline, so there you have it. The sonnet rhyme form I chose is the typical Shakespearian, as follows: ababcdcdefefgg. Sonnets also have a rhythm scheme called "iambic pentameter", meaning ten syllables with alternating stresses, one strong and one weak.
L.O.V.E.
Chapter 7: Sonnet
(GW) Valerie and Danny clashed with power;
Even-matched, since Danny wouldn't harm her.
Dodging blasts, he flew to Casper's tower,
Using his reflective shield as armor.
(DP) I do not have time for this, (GW) he muttered.
(DP) If only there was some way I could leave.
(GW) Realizing the answer, Danny uttered,
(DP) Oh duh, I am a ghost and so naïve!
(GW) Intangible, into the school he flew
And found a place to change from white to black.
He heard his name, then lilac eyes met blue.
She stared a moment then her form went slack.
(SM) Oh Danny, don't you see she's not the one?
I could go on… but never mind. Have fun.

(GW) Turning, Sam hid tears that graced her figure
And Danny gaped, disheartened as she went.
(DF) Why do I feel like she pulled a trigger?
A sad Sam's worse than mad Sam's anger spent.
(GW) The teen thought on about his life gone wrong,
And to the writer, (DF) You stay out of this!
(GW) As if, alone, the boy could get along.
We've seen already who he chose to kiss.
(DF) It's my life as you said, you're no concern.
(GW) I know, dear boy, but you're my perfect muse.
And now I see a chance for you to learn.
(DF) Oh great. If that's the case then here's some news:
Here I come, there will be no distraction.
(GW) Don't you worry, I'll find satisfaction!
