Okay, well, I originally planned this as an oneshot, but...also don't be alarmed or nething that my ch. r going so fast. I have them written in a notebook...well these three so far...so basically all I have to do is type them.

Disclaimer: I don't own Danny phantom of course, and I don't own this poem but I think it fits the story don't u?

My reviews r off to a good start, nd i'm glad people will review without threatening them

So...here you go ch 3!

"I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't feel love."

Throughout his entire last period before lunch, Mr. Lancer's class, Danny tried to stop the beating of his chest. He tried daydreaming, but thoughts of Sam suffocated his mind. His heart began beating louder, so he was pretty sure the entire class could hear it thudding against his chest.

Instead, he tried to pay attention to the actual lesson. He decided it was worth a shot since this would be one of the first times he'd paid attention in this class all year.

"Now, the art of letter writing has long since died out since the era of text messaging and computers..."

Danny began to get bored of the entire conversation. He looked around to see what his classmates were doing. Tucker's seat was empty, Paulina was filing her nails, uninterested in what the rest of the world was doing, Dash was staring at Paulina absentmindedly, Star was flipping her cell phone open and closed, and Valerie still hadn't showed up for class.

"She's probably cleaning up her cuts that I gave her. She'll be here for lunch, though." Danny tried not to look at Sam on the other side of the room, but his eyes were drawn to her. She was doodling something on her notebook, but he couldn't see what. Sam must have felt that someone was watching her, so she looked up. When she saw Danny was the one staring at her, she blushed guiltily, and put the piece of paper she was doodling on in her skirt pocket. Danny pushed that out of his mind, and tried to get past the last fifteen minutes of class.

Sam sat down for lunch at her, Danny's, Tucker's, and occasionally, Valerie's table to eat lunch. She had brought her lunch today, but Danny was buying. Sam had noticed that Valerie was missing for the first three hours of school.

"Probably saw Danny chasing the Box Ghost. Why doesn't she just give up? I mean..."

Valerie came toward the lunch table wearing a slight frown, and one of her hands was scratched.

"Hey Sam." she said, plopping her tray down next to Sam. "Mind if I sit here?"

Sam shook her head. She and Valerie had been on friendly turns lately. When Danny thought it was hopeless being with someone who would want to blast his head off, Sam decided to be nicer to Valerie. (A/n: Flirting with Disaster hasn't taken place yet)

"Where's Tucker today?" Valerie asked, trying to start a conversation that quickly had died when Sam got lost in her daydream.

Sam began telling her of how Tucker had gotten in trouble. Halfway through the story, Danny came and sat down across from the two girls.

"Hey Sam." He said carelessly. "Hey Valerie..." He put on a longing expression when he said her name.

"Hey Danny." she replied, looking relieved that Danny was flirting with her., well, he was a little bit.

"Hey Valerie, I know this is kind of weird, but, will you...maybe...uhh, wanna, go to the movies this Friday..." Danny looked so innocent that Valerie smiled. She was a little shocked at the suddenness of it, but, had always wanted Danny to ask her out.

Sam's face fell. She had not been expecting this. Danny, he said he was over her. He said, he liked someone else. He wouldn't say, though. Did he only tell her and Tucker that so they would be friendlier towards Valerie. Suddenly, she and Valerie's truse died. She hated everything about Valerie, her hair, her ghost hunting, her face, her smile, her laugh; she couldn't even begin to show all her hate towards Valerie.

Sam would never admit it aloud, but she like Danny, a lot. Maybe loved him. She couldn't imagine living without him. Watching him fall in love with someone else, maybe even seeing them get married. She loved Danny, but she vowed she wouldn't ruin their friendship by telling him, unless, by some miracle...he said he loved her too.

Then one day,

Things went terribly wrong.

The next few days,

Were like a very sad song.

Sam watched Valerie, and Danny hold hands, and make kissy faces at each other the rest of the day. At first, the rest of the school was in shock that the freaky Goth chick wasn't with that Fenton kid, but they soon welcomed the new couple. Valerie wasn't popular anymore, but she wasn't a loser. People gossiped about how much better Valerie could do. Danny just simply smiled.

"I dunno. Maybe I'm pushing this too far. Sam hasn't said anything about it, but maybe that's because she doesn't like me that way. Maybe I'm doing this for nothing. Oh well, I'll wait until after Friday after my date with Valerie before I mention something to her. I know it could totally wreck our friendship but I want her to know before I go insane." Danny thought.

As the first day of school ended for the new couple, Danny told Sam he'd call her when she got home at four.

"Don't bother." Sam told him. Her parents were going to be home tonight, and she didn't want him to hear their yells through the phone.

Danny just shrugged and ran to catch up with Valerie to walk her home. They didn't really talk, it was more holding hands and making kissy faces at each other. Danny didn't care, though. "Just until after Friday." He told himself.

Sam headed in the opposite direction towards the detention room. She took her place near the window watching Danny and Valerie walk towards her house. She knew Danny wasn't really gone, but she felt like he had gone missing. She couldn't talk to him anymore without the subject being brought up to Valerie, or what Valerie would think. And, it had only been one day!

She took out the piece of paper that she was doodling on earlier in Mr. Lancer's class. It was pictures of Danny holding her bridal style in his ghost form. She was daydreaming and hadn't realized what she was drawing until she felt Danny's eyes on her.

Angrily, she crumpled up the paper and threw it in the trashcan. She could only be angry when Danny wasn't looking because she couldn't be mad at him for getting a girlfriend. She shouldn't care because she was his best friend not his girlfriend. Besides if she got mad it would take explaining as to why she was mad.

The only good that had come of this was that Danny had been distracted from the red mark on her face. Usually, as soon as he saw her again that morning, he would have been on her until she had fussed up and completely told the truth. Now, he was too distracted with Valerie to even notice if she was bleeding to death.

Sam looked up, to check the time. It was 4:15. Everyone had left detention except her and the detention lady, who was snoring gently in the chair. She grabbed her stuff and sprinted out of the room, hoping her parents hadn't noticed she was 15 minutes late. Unfortunately, they did notice...

I've only had a few reviews but I'm pleased with every1 of them.

I think this is a medium length chapter...let me know if u want the them longer cause I can try...

I intend to make them longer but there are just some places that seem like good stopping points.
