Chapter 2
Danny was sitting at his desk, rolling the coin across his knuckles as he listened to Mr lancer talk about George Orwell's 1984. Danny loved Mr. Lancer's class as the teacher always gave the boy a challenge. Since Casper High no longer had an AP English program because of budget cuts, he gave Danny extra work to do along with some other students.
" Okay, class, since we have ten minutes left, it's about time I tell you your next assignment," the teacher said, making the class groan as he continued, " You guys will be working in assigned pairs as you will be doing a group book report on a science fiction book. The instructions will be on the handout with a list of recommended books."
Mr. Lancer then began to name the pairs he created. Danny realized that he was left out, along with two other people. Danny raised his hand as he was going to ask about his partner. Lancer saw the boy's hand and knew what he was about to ask.
" Mr. Witcher, I'm going to need you to stay behind along with Ms. Manson and Ms. McLain," the teacher said before the bell rang.
Danny stayed in his seat as the rest of the students left the class to go home, leaving the four alone. Mr. Lancer waited for everyone to leave the room before speaking to the three.
" Mr. Witcher, I appreciate you for staying as you will be exempted from this project as I need your help with something else," Mr lancer said as he turned towards the two women, " I'm afraid that you two have the lowest grades in the class. So instead of making you guys do the book report, you will be redoing old assignments and a book report with a book of your choice."
" Um, Mr. Lancer," Amber asked.
" Yes, Ms. McLain," Mr. Lancer said.
" If we redo the assignments, what is the highest grade we can get," the brunette asked.
" The highest you can get will be eighty percent. Also, Mr. Witcher will be helping you. He will make sure you do the assignments correctly," Lancer said. He then turned to Danny," I need you to help them. You are the only one that understands the material."
Danny nodded as he didn't mind helping the girls pass. He was about to ask them the times that work best for them but was interrupted by Sam.
"I have to work with these idiots. Honestly, why do I have to work with Witcher? Can't I work with tucker or something," the goth asked, as everyone knows that she hates Danny.
" Because you are friends with Mr. Foley. Also, it will be more of a distraction for you. Besides, we need your grades to go up instead of down," the bald man said as he proceeded to hand the two the papers. Lancer began to speak," You can either work with Mr. Witcher, or I can call your parents and tell them the situation. That will leave you doing the assignment with me after school."
" Great, now I have to work with the town's golden boy and McLame," The goth said as she insulted the two.
" Congratulations, Ms. Manson, you just earned your self detention. Why don't you take a seat," Lancer said as the goth began to fume as she marched to her seat as Danny and Amber walked out of the classroom.
" Hey, so what time do you want to go over this," he asked the girl as she looked at him and blushed.
" I'm free now. If you want, we can do this now," the girl stated.
" Sure, we can do this at my place since my folks won't be home till six. So we could get a few of those out of the way," The boy said as the girl nodded and informed him that she had to call her parents.
Time skip. Two hours.
Danny watched as the brunette finished rewriting her fourth assignment. Danny looked at the ones she finished as he smiled. He enjoyed Amber's company as he helped her, noticing how she was shy and would blush whenever he looked at her.
" Hey, why don't we stop here for the day," the athlete said, making the girl hum in agreement. The boy looked at her as he couldn't help but admire the girl's beauty.
Amber had a round face with long brown hair held together in a high ponytail. She wore an old faded grey AC/DC shirt and a pair of black jeans that matched her black Van's. But what Danny couldn't stop looking at was her green eyes filled with life and passion. The boy felt attracted to her as he couldn't stop staring at her.
Suddenly the boy heard a strange voice that he didn't recognize.
' She can be yours if you wish it,' the voice said,' All you have to do is wish for her to be yours. She'll be yours to love. She will love you. All it takes is one wish.'
" Danny, are you okay," the girl said as she tried to get her host's attention. Danny snapped out of it and said he was fine. The girl just sighed.
" So you want to continue this on Thursday," the boy asked as she shook her head.
" Sorry, I can't. I have to be in the music club after school. But I'm free Friday and Saturday," Amber stated. He then agreed to work on Saturday with her. Danny offered to walk Amber home as it was getting dark. She accepted his offer as they left Danny's house.
Time skip. One hour.
Danny was sitting at the table as he heard his mother talk about their days until Allison turned to him. He knew it was about the fancy party that his parents were hosting this weekend as it was in their home. Before Allison could even speak, Danny beat her to it.
" I already have my tux ready, mom. Also, I'll be going to my barber earlier that day to get my hair cut and shave as I know you don't like me having any stubble for parties," Danny said as he began to rub his face. Danny preferred trimming his facial hair, as he hates shaving since he has sensitive skin.
Allison nodded as she heard her son. She doesn't mind him having stubble, but she wants this party to go perfectly.
" Oh, Danny, I forgot to tell you Mrs. Manson called earlier asking about you," Maddie said as Danny got a feeling about what she was going to say.
" She wanted to apologize for Sam's behavior at school today. She was wondering if you were willing to come to their home and help Sam on Thursday," Maddie said as Allison gave her a questionable look about the topic.
Maddie and Pamela Manson were good friends. They play tennis together at the country club twice a week. Once a month, the two families get together to have brunch. Danny enjoys meeting Pamela as she is very polite and pleasant. Danny has quite a crush on the older woman.
" What happened at school today," Allison asked as she turned to her son, who explained everything.
Allison sighed, saying not to worry as she complimented her son for helping others. The three continued with their dinner as they began going over other topics.
Time skip: two hours.
Danny stared at his ceiling as he listened to his cat, Puma, purr. He was thinking about the party as he thought about Amber and Pamela. The boy enjoyed walking Amber home as they talked about their interests. He was shocked that the girl liked Peter Frampton as much as him. He found out that she could play the guitar and could sing. He found himself finding the girl more attractive as he got to know her.
He then thought about Pamela. She was kind to those around her as she treated people with respect. Danny found the woman sexy because of her maturity. Not to mention the woman knew her way around a conversation. Danny also hated her husband as he never treated her with any respect.
As he thought about the two, he heard the voice from earlier.
' They can be yours along with anything else you wish. You could wish for anything you want. The two can be your wives as they would be happy to be with you,' the voice said as Danny found it quite feminine, ' Give in to your desires. Wish for anything you want, and it will come true. You will be happy. Just make one tiny wish, and I will grant it.'
Danny listened to the voice as he heard it seduce him. He thought about the wish he wanted. The boy remembered getting his driver's license as his parents said that when their schedules cleared up, they'll get him his first car. Danny already knew he wanted a Jeep Wrangler. He knew the car wouldn't be that expensive since it would be preowned.
" I wish for a Jeep Wrangler," the boy said. Then the boy thought of another thing that would make him laugh. He knows that wishes don't come true. But for some reason, he decided to play along with the voice in his head. " I wish Sam's outfit tomorrow is completely pink."
The boy then lets sleep consume him as Puma purrs in his ear. Unknown to the boy, the gold coin began to glow.
'So you have wished it, so shall it be,' the voice said as the light from the coin began to fade.
Time skip. The next morning
Danny woke up as he usually does. He starts to do his morning rituals as he walks to his bathroom, brushes his teeth, shower, and trims his stubble. Danny then puts on a red shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of sneakers and walks downstairs.
As soon as he walks into the kitchen and sees Maddie and Allison, he knows something is up. He sees Maddie with a camera and Allison with a blindfold in her hands.
"What's going on," Danny asks as they suddenly walk up to him. Before he got an answer, he was blindfolded.
" Don't worry, sweetheart, it's a surprise," Allison said as she led her son outside. Maddie followed them as she was recording her son. Danny was soon allowed to take off the blindfold. Once the blindfold was off, the boy saw something he thought would never happen anytime soon.
" Suprise," both Maddie and Allison said as they presented Danny with a Blue 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Danny was shocked as he wished for this last night. Beginning to think it was a coincidence.
" Please tell me this is real," Danny asked as he didn't believe the car was his.
" Yes, it is, sweetheart, and we knew you wanted the car for a while, so we decided to get you one," Maddie said. She and Allison then walked up to him and hugged him.
" Promise us that you will be safe driving this," Allison said as she kissed him on the cheek with her red lips and handed him the keys. Maddie kissed him on the opposite cheek. They both walked back into the house, leaving Danny shocked with his brand-new car.
Time Skip: thirty minutes.
Danny began to pull into the student parking lot as people stared at his new car. As he got out of the car, he saw Amber as she began to walk into the school. He was about to go and find her, but he got interrupted by Dash.
" Dude, when were you going to tell us about this," the quarterback asked as he pointed his thumb at the Jeep.
"My parents surprised me with it this morning," Danny said as Kwan and Jason, a teammate of Danny's, commented on the car. As they began walking to their first class, they stopped as they saw Sam.
" Is it just me, or does Manson looks like a human being for once," Jason says as the four kept staring at the goth. Sam had her hair down for once as she was wearing a pink dress that ended by her knees. The girl was wearing Pink stock that matched her pink flats.
But that wasn't all that was different as the girl wasn't wearing any makeup, giving her a natural look. As the guys began to cat-call the girl, Danny thought about what had happened last night. He remembered hearing a voice telling him that his wishes would come true. Danny remembered his wishes as he wished for a car and for Sam to wear pink today. Danny thought his car was a coincidence. Now he sees Sam wearing pink makes him wonder was what he asked for came true.
That was when Danny realized that his wishes had come true as he noticed that his pocket began to glow. He then heard the voice he had heard before.
' All you have to do is wish it. If you wish for it, it will be granted. You can have anything as long as you wish for it'
