Chapter 2: Feelings…Secrets…Problem
Bing
Finally another drab day in Bagor is over. Time to go home!
"Hey Sam!"
"Danny..hey! How was your first day here at Bagor?"
"Well, I guess it is okay. Although a lot of things really don't happen here. Don't you think?"
Boy he learns fast! "Yeah, I totally understand what you mean. So what are you doing tonight? I want to introduce you to the rest of the gang here. I mean, my gang."
"Uh..do you think that is a smart idea?" Danny seemed nervous at the fact of meeting new people that had no clue about him. No clue about why he was here in the first place. Should I tell Sam, she seems really understanding. She has helped me here all day and I sure would like to spend more time with her. Uh…
"I'm sure you'll fit right in. No worries, I'll be there too. What do you say? It'll be fun, I promise." Sam put the puppy dog look on knowing how much it helped her in the past. She really wanted him to come with her.
Ahh…..not another puppy dog look. Grrr….."Okay, I'll go. Just don't get to far away from me." Danny laughed at Sam's face and left to catch his ride.
Later that night……"Everyone this is Danny, Danny this is Tucker, Lori, Amy, Natalie, and Nick. Make yourself at home."
Danny looked around Sam's house in awe. Although he was used to this type of living he never experienced it like this before. He glanced around to find everything in perfect shape. Hell, she even had her own movie theater! And he thanked god that he didn't need to worry about fitting in. Natalie was a goth like Sam and everyone else looked to be like him, normal……
Danny quickly became friends with all of them and soon realized that he had a lot in common with them. He liked all types of music and all of them seemed to like the same. They were all part of the marching band and knew what they were talking about. They talked about anime and how stupid preps like Paulina could really be and how much danger she really is.
"I tell you she is not that bad. She's like a goddess in my mind." Tucker looked dreamily at the wall and started to imagine that it was Paulina standing there.
Amy chuckled, "She's a goddess all right, the goddess of pain and torture. Tucker may god bless your soul and please snap out of it. The wall is really not that hot!"
Everyone chuckled as they watched Tucker stir and turn bright red.
"Danny stay away from her and anyone else that looks or hangs out with her. Really, she's evil." Nick did his best impression of Paulina with her flirtatious actions and sent everyone else laughing, rolling on the floor. Even Tucker thought it was funny.
"Well, I guess I should go now. I don't want to keep my aunt up all night." Danny looked around as everyone got up to give him a hug good-bye. Natalie faking crying to try to make him stay longer.
"Please don't go…sniff….we want you to stay." Everyone laughed again as Danny attempted to drag himself away from Natalie.
"Sorry but no can do. I need to go." Natalie gave up and let him go, though still looking upset. Sam walked Danny to the door while everyone else waved good-bye and went back to their conversation.
Sam spoke a little nervously as she said her good-bye. "Danny….uh…thanks for coming over. As you see, we aren't all that bad..uh….yeah."
Danny spoke with the same nervousness. Why am I so nervous? This is Sam, my new best friend. "Uh.. yeah thanks for everything today. I really appreciated it."
Awkward silence.
"So I'll see you on Monday?" Sam asked hoping he would say yes. Please say yes. If he wants to hang out this weekend, I'm free tomorrow night!
"I'll do you one better. I'll see you tomorrow night so you can show me around town. Sound okay?" He wanted her to say yes..really bad…. Wooo…..don't get any ideas Danny. She doesn't know me. Danny looked away hopefully trying to avoid her eyes.
"Sure no problems! See you then!" Sam said excitedly. Don't get to excited Sam. He doesn't know you. She clamed down and reached over to give Danny a hug.
She opened the door and yelled bye to him. Danny stopped when he reached the sidewalk and turned around and came back. What am I doing? My house is that way? Oh god…Danny reached a confused Sam at the door and did the first thing that came to mind…he kissed her on the cheek and said in a barely audible whisper, "I can hardly wait." With that he left a stunned goth at the door as he hurried down the street with a huge grin on his face.
Sam returned to her friends and they all were smiling at her. "What's so funny?"
No one answered until Amy stepped up, "Didn't you notice with what he said and did before he left?"
"Yeah I mean really it is so obvious…"
Nick wanted to be part of this too, although he was more blunt, "Sam, he likes you. Duh!"
"Your so blunt Nick…nice going!" Lori slapped him upside the head as everyone laughed.
"He does not. We're just friends. I helped him today and he..he..well…your just wrong okay. He doesn't even know me! I don't know him that well either!."
"Maybe you should then." Tucker chuckled the most. He knew this would happen the first moment Sam told him about Danny at lunch that day. He knew there was an instant connection that flared the moment Sam helped Danny with Dash.
"Guys..your wrong. We are JUST FRIENDS! Okay?"
"Whatever you say.." Everyone said in unison. Why do they always do that?
Afterwards they all just hung out and continued to talk about how stupid and boring Bagor was but one thing loomed in Sam's mind..Do I really like him that way? Does he like me?
At Danny's new house….
What was I thinking? Going up to give her a kiss? So corny. She probably thinks I'm a dope now. Do I really like her that much?
"Ahhhhhh….!"
"Danny, huh, what's wrong?" Danny's worried aunt stepped into the room. She laid some washed clothes on his destroyed bed and gave him a worried stare.
"Nothing. Just girl problems."
"Ah, I see. That Sam girl huh….Well if I were you I'd make a move. A girl like that doesn't come around often you know." And with that she left a very confused Danny behind.
As his aunt left the room Danny fell back against his bed. He was so confused. Was his aunt right? Should he make his move? But will she understand?
Danny got up and looked on his desk to find a newspaper there. One from where he used to live. "Would Sam understand? I'm a prince for gods sake! She could never understand who I am, and what I do. Well, okay maybe the prince part but not the halfa! I'm part ghost, that's why I left home in the first place. Oh man I'm so confused! Wait…who am I talking to?"
Danny slapped himself in the head. He needed to figure things out. His life's secret depended on it.
So what did you think? I figured this chapter would be to show the growing relationship between Sam and Danny. And as a special treat I included what's up with Danny. Ha! Anyway reviews are always great!
