"I'll wait for you in the lunchroom Clover!" Paulina shouted before she joined the flood of students in the hall.
Clover waved a little annoyed at Paulina's persistency. She walked up to Mr. Lancer to get a couple of papers she would need to get signed. Danny and Tucker were the last ones to get up. Tucker headed strait for the door, but Danny trailed behind.
"Get the lead out Danny! It's Fish Friday in the cafeteria! If we don't get in line first, it'll turn evil!" Tucker said menacingly.
"You go ahead Tuck. I'll meet you there. I want to introduce myself to this Clover person." Danny said, keeping his gaze on Clover talking to Lancer.
"I'll wait for you." Tucker said, returning to Danny's side.
Clover turned around to head for the door, but when she saw Danny she blushed, and looked down at her feet. When she reached them at the doorway, she tilted her head up and smiled. Danny felt glad that she wasn't ignoring him, so he smiled back.
"Hi. I'm Danny Fenton, and this is-" Tucker interrupted.
He shoved Danny and held out his hand.
"Tucker Foley. You can call me Tucker." He said smoothly.
Clover giggled a little and shook his hand.
"Excuse him. It's fish Friday." Danny said, jokingly.
Clover tucked her long hair behind her ear.
"I'm Clover. Uh, maybe you guys could show me where the lunchroom is? I'm supposed to meet some freaky snob there. Oh! Sorry, uh, if she's your friend. She's just kind of, um…"
"Over-bearing?" Danny finished. "Yea, I know the type. I'd invite you to sit with us, but seeing as you'll probably be booked for the next couple of weeks. Everyone's going to want to sit with you."
Clover laughed. "I'll see if I can pencil you in." She said.
Just then, Paulina came up to her with a look that was too sweet to be real.
"Hey Clover. Sorry, but we're going to need to use your seat. There's a new new kid that just came in, and I just don't want her to be alone. Maybe next time." She said before dashing away.
"I think I'm free today." Clover said.
"Will you two come on already! Sam's waiting!" Tucker shouted from half way down the hall.
"Sam?" Clover asked.
Danny chuckled, "You'll see."
Clover followed Danny to a table near the window, where Sam sat with Tucker. She scanned the room for Danny and the new kid. Once she saw him, she smiled.
"So where is she!" Sam asked impatiently.
"Sam? This is Clover. She's from Salem." Danny stated.
He stepped aside to reveal Clover standing behind him.
"Oh awesome!" Sam shouted. "She's goth!"
Clover smiled, glad that this Sam person accepted her.
"More or less." She said calmly.
"Come and sit down. You've got a lot to learn about Casper High." Sam grabbed Clover's hand and gave her the seat in-between her and Danny.
They talked for what seemed like a long time. Danny, who was now over the excitement of Clover, stared at the plate in front of him.
"Is there something wrong?" Clover asked.
Danny jumped a little. He blushed when he noticed she had been watching him.
"Oh. No. I was just thinking about something." He answered.
Clover smiled, and turned back to Sam. Danny continued to watch her for a little while before the bell rang again.
"Oh yea!" Sam shouted. "We have a half day today!"
She and Tucker got up and headed strait for their lockers, but Clover took a little while longer. Danny got up slowly. He swallowed hard before turning around and tapping Clover on the shoulder. She stood up and flipped her hair out of her face. She looked at him questioningly.
"Hey, listen. Tucker and Sam are coming over tonight. Uh, if you're not busy. Maybe we could show you around town?" He asked.
Clover smiled. "Sure. Where do you live?"
Danny thought about his house and the rather strange people in it. Not to mention the whole ghost thing.
"Uh, maybe we should meet at your house. Mine is, temporarily out of order." He joked, scratching the back of his head.
"Ok. See you at seven then?" Clover asked.
"Alright. See you later!" Danny said as he ran out of the school.
