I was ready to cry the only two girls in amity I could trust were no use at i did what i could do.
"Jazz?" my voice was timid almost fragile. "Do you have time to talk."
"Scale of 1-10 how bad is it? I mean, your calling me." Jazz sounded seriously concerned
"Mentally a 8, in reality like a 4." I sighed knowing I'm being ridiculous.
"Well you are lucky I agreed to have Danielle this weekend to hang out so I'll be there in an hour," I could hear her cheeky grin. "What do you say to movies and junk food, I can pick up a veggie burger."
"Deal I miss both of you!" I smiled knowing something normal will come out of this. Danni had started living with the fentons her freshman year. She was still a sweet bouncy little thing, maddie and Jack easily thought of her as their daughter quickly. She probably reminded them of Danny before they found out.
Sam smiled at the little kitten in her lap, mel was a good distraction, with her parents gone, grandmother in a hospital and being strong to everyone else in the world, she needed something that needed her attention.
I walked down to the kitchen to pull out some cookie dough. I sighed, life was so much simpler when I spent my weekends hunting down ghost.

By the time that the doorbell rang i know I didn't look like the mess I was. Jazz was quick to hug me and giving me the normalcy from years ago that i craved. Danielle was there next though she went to school with me I hardly got to see her.
"Sam, i missed you so much," jazz smiled putting down a Nasty Burger take out bag and a soda pack.
"Yeah sam, we hardly talk and my lockers are like a halfway down," Danni laughed.
"sorry , Danni it's just hard, Daniel hovers around you so no boys get ideas, i can't deal with him." i smiled apologetically. I really did miss her.
"Anyone up for Scream?" Jazz smiled. I knew she hated slasher movies but she knew it was one of my favorites. "I need this all the official stuff from moving into my apartment is driving me insane."
"You and emmet are moving in together?" i was surprised i had never thought her of all people would jump into something to young.
Jazz blushed, and nodded as danielle began to tease her about getting married and starting a family.
We ate and made fun of every stupid move made in the movie. As soon as it was over we moved from the screening room to my room. The other two making themselves comfortable in the more than large enough space. Danielle was snooping through my closet, pulling boots and clothing. I knew she loved the freedom i had with my clothes and she liked trying them on.
"So homecoming is coming up this year, and i really want to go," danni giggled. "The one guy i like is scared of Danny."
"That's what you get for living with the ghost boy," jazz sighed. "It's not like you should piss him off it would be almos-"
"That's exactly what id do, i should make him mad show him he cant control me." she paced. ""Sam, you must help me, you of all people should know what to do ."
"I don't think this is a good idea." jazz ran after us as we ran for the closet.

It was almost three when danni was passed out and the jazz and i were still awake. "Jazz? Do you think ill ever be fine?" I sighed feeling pathetic.
"He hurt you sam, nothing will ever help. He hurt you like no one will ever hurt you. Hell sam i was even mad and i didnt even talk to him for weeks." she hugged me. "We didn't ever think you two would break up."
"Thanks jazz." i smiled falling back onto the bed. The older girl hummed and her breathing evened out.

After spending the rest of the weekend with the girls I entered school with mikey. Nothing was new. Paulina was trying to get attention my bashing mine and mikey's friendships. The moment that danielle walked into the school, I was super self satisfied with the look on danny's face.
She wore short shorts and a flowy white off the shoulder crop top and red bra. Complete with a pair of black tims. "Danielle Elizabeth Fenton, what the hell are you doing?" he ran up to her throwing his letterman jacket at her.
"Leave me alone, i may be made from your DNA but you are so not my father!" she threw it back at him walking to her friends, carmen and shane. Carmen, a sweet african american girl that knew almost everything looked proud. Were shane a lanky boy with bleached hair looked scared as hell. "Now let me live my own life!" she and off dragging her friends with her.
Danny turned his ecto green glare to me, "you i know she was with you till Jazz took her home, you got her dressing like a slut-"
"Daniel i wouldn't dare finish that, you and i both know i am far more scary than you even without the ghost powers." he growled edging closer. "Id stop daniel or people would start to think you still care what I do."
His eyes went back to their haunting blue. "sammy , you know I'll al-"
"DANNY!" paulinas shrill yell cut through the halls "GET AWAY FROM HER, SHE STILL WANTS YOU… and you whore, he's mine now he chose the better one."
"Watch it paulina, people will start to think the little goth girl makes you insecure." i looked at her my stare turning icy. "Don't forget who he was screaming first." i saw mikey a few feet away and pulled him by the hand to where nobody could see me.
I pulled Mikey to me and cried in his shoulder, mickey has hardly seen me like this but recently it's been more and more.
"Let's leave," he whispered, his own voice sounded shocked. "We can go watch a movie, and eat whatever you want, tell me we'll do it."
I looked at him my eyes burning into his, MIckey changed so much, i'd lie if i said he wasn't attractive. "Lets go well have to run once we get outside."
He smiled wickedly his lip ring a little more obvious.

Three hours later there we were in the screening room. I was curled up in his lap as he was stroking my hair, we were on our second movie. This was obviously more than platonic thought i would never admit it i craved this. I completely hate myself for this.
I did what I felt the need to. I pulled his face as he wasn't looking at the scream, was up slightly taller than him in this position. I placed my lips on his, testing the waters. This waes a line we never dared cross mostly because of me, i saw the way he watched me i know he was at least physically attracted to me.
I moved so that i was straddling him, i was a bit satisfied to see the purple smear beginning around his lips. It had been since danny that the physical has happened and it was great to finally be touched.
I felt his hands travel as mine went to his hair. This was what i wanted right now. A moment of lust and impulse.

I'm not ashamed it wasn't something i did often and i'll leave it to mickey for what he wants. After he left I just sat there almost dead to the world.
I drove down to amity's old folks home to see my grandmother. She was only a little active these days but she was alive. She felt like all i had left sometimes.
She doesn't talk much anymore so i sit with her. Today we were reading of mice and men. She smiled and fell asleep. I kissed her forehead and headed out.
"Miss Manson," kyle my grandmas personal caretaker stopped me. "Ida isn't looking great i really just think i need to-"
"Kyle it's okay I was expecting this" i pursed my lips.
"Tell your friend to visit her, she always smiled when he's around."
"Im sorry my friend?" i was slightly confused.
"The tall kid with dark hair and blue eyes, he wears a letterman jacket from your school."
"Daniel," he sees her.
