Chapter seven. and i would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to read this jumbled ,bumbled, and crumpled piece of work that i have been writing with thirty minutes a chapter at most. This has become the second top reviewed story on my list. And to think this all started a couple days ago with a drawing. It's funny to just think about it. To think how far this has gone with out going very far. I can tell you i know where it's going, but what i don't know is how it's going to get there. So let's just have fun while we can with it.
This chapter's question is from Galateagirl-Are you nuts? Many have asked. I've even seen a shrink or two and they can't really decide but trust me I don't normally ask questions that you shouldn't know unless you want to teach life science.
on with story
Chapter Seven: Foley's Demise.
Tucker Foley sat near the back of class watching the exchanges going on between his two best friends. There was definitely something up and he had a good idea as to what. The smirk gracing his lips only grew wider as the bell rang. Time to play investigator.
He met them at their normal seeting for lunch. He saw two guys and a girl walking away from the table dissapointedly. Obviously turned down for a date to the dance.
"Hey guys", he said sitting down opposite Danni. He looked at a couple of the guys still staring at Danni even though they had been turned down multiple times. He shuddered. He didn't care if Danni was a girl was a girl now, it was still the same Danni that used to be a guy. Besides the fact that he was so trying to get Sam and Danni together ever since he found that they held a mutual crush on eachother.
"Hey, Tuck", they replied in unison as he sat down to eat his lunch.
For the first half of lunch he watched them talk. Just listening as they seemed to avoid the subject of eachother, then he cut in hiding his mischievious smirk as best he could.
"So, Danni, have you thought about the dance", the response he got was less than enthusiastic. Danni's head quickly found the table.
"Ugh, not you too, Tuck. That makes the count thirty for just today", she said in a groan.
"What? Hey, no way! I'm not asking you out. You're hot and all but that's just wrong. I mean... You used to be a guy", Tucker said after nearly choking on a hot dog,"I meant do you two have a date at all and if so satisfy my curiosity by telling me."
For a moment Sam and Danni looked at eachother then in unison they bothshrugged ad said,"I've got someone in mind." After realising they said the same thing they blushed a little but let it pass quickly.
"Oh really?", Tucker asked raising one eyebrow," Who?"
Both of them stumbled over there words disastrously for a minute or so. They had apparently hoped to avoid this conversation and the emberassment that it would bring. But eventually Sam had enough guts to answer.
"I'm taking... Danni", he said lowly looking anywhere but at Danni and Tuck, both his and Danni's face becoming a lovely shade of red.
"HA! I knew it!", he got up running around the lunchroom demanding money from random people who begrudgingly paid him. When he got back he was faced with two glares that clearly wanted his head on a platter.
"You bet on us?", it was Danni. Her voice sounded abnormally calm and measured. Tht could not mean good things for Tucker.
Luckily before either decided to pounce on him and beat the life out of him a blue whisp of smoke came out of danny's mouth.
Before running somewhere to change into Dannielle Phantom she turned back on tucker and gave him a powerful glare," We're not done here, Tuck. Sam", she snapped her fingers,"Hold him." And with that Danni was off leaving Tucker in the clutches of the still scowling Sam.

"I hate you guys", Tucker said arms crossed over his chest.
"Sorry, Tuck, Can't hear you from down here", Danni called up to him a smirk on her face. After beating Technus severely she came back and made Tcker tell her and Sam what the whole money gathering was about. And now Tucker Was stranded at the top of the flagpole by his undershorts.
He watched as Danni and Sam laughed. He knew they'd only leave him there for awhile but it didn't mean he had to like it. Well atleast he got a birds eyeview of them talking to eachother. He pulled out his PDA from one of his pockets and began recording them with the camera attachment.
Sam and Danni were talking animatedly about something. If only that hadn't put him up so high maybe he could hear. He more interested as something they were saying was making them blush... Vibrantly.
What he saw next shocked him even and he smirked. Another four hundred or so dollars in the pot. Today was the best of his entire senior year. Well except for the hanging from the flagpole by his boxers thing.
The best part of it all was he caught it on tape. He quickly hid his PDA when Danni went ghost again to pull him down off the flagpole with a serious look on her face to try and hide the blush.
"Now what have we leanred today?", Sam asked glaring at Tucker once he was on the ground.
"Uh..."
"How about not betting on your friends going to a dance together?", Danni suggested crossing her arms under her chest.
"That works for me", Tucker said slowly backing away, deciding it would be better for his health if he didn't tell them the other five or so bets he made. And at this rate he'd have well over five thousand dollars before college started.
"Well we missed an hour of school... Who's up for hookie?"
"Sorry, Dan, I got a test i need to take. If I miss another one My mom is gonna kill me", Tuck said heading back into the school. He was lying, but hey money is money and if it's quick money that makes it better. The one that owed him the most was Lancer. One hundred ad fifty dollars straight on the evidence of Sam and Danni's first kiss.
He looked back and saw exactly what he'd hope to see. Danni and Sam walking towards the movies. Good, now he'd be able to collect without fear for his health. The smirk on his face grew As he trutted back into school going over the footage he had of the two kissing.
It was short but sweet and worth a ton of money. He was thinking of posting it on the net.

Tucker sat back smirking as he counted his money. One, two, three...Nine hundred dollars for a date and a first kiss. Man he was good.
He looked at the site he recently erected on the web. It had been up for a month or so. He went to the video section and uploaded the video of the Danni and Sam kissing. It alwas felt so pleaseing when plans turned out good.
As if money from people you know isn;t nice enough several of the people that were regulars on his site made some bets of their own. He smirked as they wired cash into his bank account.
"I'm gonna be rich!", he said smiling like an idiot.

Danni was in Sam's room waiting for sam to return with the pizza they had ordered. Being easily bored she walked over to Sam's computer and logged on And began to randomly search for immages online.
"What the hell let's see what Sam's name brings up", she typed Sam in and was at first shocked then enraged. At about that time Sam walked into the room. He could practically feel the rage coming off of Danni.
"What's wrong, Danni?", he came up behind her setting the Pizza down on his bed. Danni just leaned to the side so he could see.
His reaction was much the same.
There on the screen was a picture of Earlier that day when they kissed. Beneath the picture was a link to a sight called looked at eachother then at the screen again and in perfect unison said," You are so dead, Foley."

A shiver went down Tucker's spine for some reason as he closed out his internet window.
He looked out his window and swore he could see angry glowing green eyes and just as angry purple eyes. He blinked rubbing his own pair of eyes and looked again.
"Nothing there. Man, I been watching to many late night movies", he stated before finally completely turning his computer off and going to bed. Tomorrow was gonna be great. He closed his eyes and soon found himself dreaming of Sitting on a golden Church bench in a very nice and expensive suit with Valerie Gray beside him as Danni and Sam stood at the alter.
Near the end the dream turned bitter however when Danni and Sam turned into monsters that started chasing him around the church. A premonition perhaps? Most likely.

Tucker met up with his friends at the usual spot, but something was up. They were acting really weird. Smiling sweetly at him, complimenting him on his work with computers, giving him a pep talk to Build up his courage to ask Valerie out.
"Uh, guys, not that I mind the encouragement, but why are you doing this? It's really weird", he said rubbing his wrist nervously a habbit he had recently picked up.
"Oh, no reason really. Just thought We'd make your last week alive a good one", the smile on Danni's face did nothing to hide the murderous intent in her eyes.
"Am I sick?", Tucker played it off dumb. He didn't know quite why he was in trouble yet so why admit to crimes they didn't know about?
"No", Sam said not at all hiding his annoyance anymore," But you are going to die after the dance." Tucker gulped.
"Why?", he asked his voice barely a squeak. As a response Sam and Danni both held up seperate peices of paper with their pictures on them with Tucker's site address clearly printed at the bottom.
"Uh, ha ha... Where did you guys find those?", he tried to find a way out of it but he knew nothing would probably work. Before he could even will himself to run Sam caught him by the arm and twisted it behind his back.
"If you want to live long enough to reach college you'll give us all the money you got on that stupid bet!", Danni's voice was venomous and Tucker gulped again.
He reached into his pocket without further hesitation and Began working with his PDA to transfer the Money to Sam's account. As he was let go he knew that the day had only just began. It was gonna be hell.

A/N: ok I'm feeling generous so instead of making the next part chapter eight I'm going to make this chapter a bit longer by having the thoughts of Sam and Danni on their first kiss.

Sam tried to work on his math as he sat in his room but he couldn't focus right. Not after what happened Tuesday. To think a little kiss could mess up his thoughts so much. Every time he thought about it he could feel butterflies in his stomach. This was definitely not Gothlike behavior.
He sighed and thought back to the moment it happened.
(flash back)
Sam and Danni had started talking about the dance. Sam's parents were even worse about it now that he was a guy. Said it would be harder for him to control himself, that he should keep protection with him at the dance incase soething happened at the dance.
Danni had a slightly flushed look on her face that made her look quite cute and just before Sam could iquire why he found his lips up against Danni's. Sam was shocked, so shocked he almost didn't respond, but finally he did and kissed her back. The kiss was short, too short for Sam's liking but one thing was for sure. It was not a Fake-out Make-out.
"Sorry, I should't have done that. I just...", Danni trailed off turning away red from emberassment.
"It's...", the words wouldn't come out right away so he swallowed and tried again,"It's ok. I... kinda liked it." Danni turned back towards Sam A hopeful expression in her eyes.
"Really?"
"Yeah... It was nice", Sam smiled at Danni and Dann smiled right back. They hadn't even realised Tucker had the whole thing on film.
(end flashback)
He smiled wider remembering the feel of her soft lips agaist his. It was just such a pleasant feeling. He hoped to do that again, and soon. He looked at his math book and with a sigh gave up on homework. He laid down on his large bed and stared up at his ceiling for a little while.
"Did you mean it, Danni? Do you really... Love me", he sighed and closed his eyes clapping his hands so the lights would turn off. God he hoped Danni meant what she said.

Danni sighed sinking low into the tub letting the warm water caress her skin. Her contented sigh echoed in the bathroom slightly. She closed her eyes leaning her hed bac against the Edge of the tub. She could feel any stress from the school day leave her body as the warm water worked it's magic. She reminded herself to thank Jazz, for Reintroducig her to bubble baths.
The day had been so rough because apparently no one really got the clue that she and Sam were taking eachother to the dance so She was approached by another score of guys that wanted to take her out. Finally having enough she stood up and shouted to the entire lunchroom that she was going to the dance with Sam and the next person to approach either one of them was getting a kick to the face.
She sighed once aain thinking about that led to thinking about Sam. Thinking about Sam lead to thinking about that first kiss. She felt a war sensation spread through her as she thought about it.
(flash back)
Danni smiled as the topic of coversation changed from on thing to another. Currently t was on the dance that Friday.
Whatever Sam was saying about the dance became lost on Danni as she looked at his lips moving to form the words. She could just immagine her own lips, she immagined the ecstasy it would bring. Watching Sam's lips bean to form a heat that pooled in Danni's lower abdomen and she felt her face flush.
Sam stopped talking and took notice of the blush and Danni's cheeks. Danni decided she didn't really feel like explaining where her thoughts were at the moment so she quickly leaned forward and kissed Sam catching him offguard.
At first he ddn't respond, Danni guessed because of the shock, but when he did Danni found herself in five seconds of heaven. That was the problem though, it was only five seconds. Much to short for her liking.
At realising that she had just out of the blue kissed Sam she turned away emberassed.
"Sorry i shouldn't have done that. I just...", she trailed off not wanting to continue. It would sound like some lame excuse anyways.
for a moment there was silence that was nerve racking for Danni then she heard Sam's voice.
"It's... It's ok. I... kinda liked it."
Danni looked back at him hoping he was telling the truth,"Really?"
"Yeah... It was nice", he smiled and Danni smiled right back.
(end flashback)
Once again Danni sighed and couldn;t help but smile at the memory. She could still taste him on her lips. It was something she would never forget. As she began to scrub her body clean she made a vow right then and there.
"We will kiss again, And soon. I really do love you, Sam. I hope you know that", and she set herself into washing herself thoroughly. This friday was going to be very interesting.
