Danny phases into the boys bathroom and changed back into his human form before anyone came in. He walks out, nonchalantly. He goes to his locker and, after fumbling with the combination, opens it and shoves in his back-pack before snatching out his English notebook. Sam and Tucker wave and approach their half-ghost friend. "Hey guys," he says with a grin.
Sam leans up against the lockers. "Hey, Danny, I need to talk to you about something..." she starts.
"Okay, what is it?" Danny smiles back at her.
Tucker rolls his eyes before he sees Paulina approaching. Then, he begins drooling with a lovesick stare on his face. Sam sees her friend's odd expression and grimaces.
Sam follows Tucker's gaze and scowls. "Paulina." she acidly spits.
"What about Paulina?" Danny asks, raising an eyebrow.
"Nothi–" Sam starts.
"Hey Danny!" Paulina's overly-chipper voice interrupts Sam.
"Oh! Hey, Paulina!" Danny stutters.
"Hey, I'm Tucker Foley." Tucker says.
Danny absent-mindedly shoves Tucker into his locker and closes the door. Sam frowns.
"That's T.F. as in Too Fine!" Tucker finishes his corn-ball pick-up line; it comes out muffled through the locker.
"Did you hear something?" Paulina quizzes.
"Nooo, but if there was something, that something should shut its mouth!" Danny loudly proclaims.
"Shutting." Tucker obliges.
"So, Danny, I was wondering if you could get Danny Phantom to come to my spring break party? It's this Saturday at six." Paulina grins. "Oh, and you and your loser friends can come, too, since Danny Phantom seems to be wherever you are."
"Losers?" Sam grunts.
"We'd be happy to go to your party." Danny gushes.
"We'll be there!" Tucker's voice rings out.
Danny kicks the locker. "OUCH!" Tucker yelps.
"Okay, then, well...See you later, Danny." Paulina winks before flouncing off.
Tucker is immediately released from his locker confinement. "Did you know you still have last week's sack lunch in there?" Tucker asks, holding up a soggy brown sack.
"Guys! We just got invited to Paulina's spring break party!" Danny exclaims, high-fiving Tucker.
"Whoopee. Maybe afterwards, we can have a splendid time jumping into shark-infested waters." Sam grumbles negatively.
Danny frowns back at her. "What's your damage, Sam? She invited YOU, too."
"Danny! She invited Danny's loser friends." Sam states, putting air quotes around 'loser friends.'
"Well! At least we got invited!" Danny growls back.
"She didn't really invite us, Danny! She invited Danny Phantom! She's just using you!"
Danny furrows his brow. "Using me to get to Danny Phantom? Oh, wait! That's me, too!" he spits back.
"I'm just gonna go pretend I hear someone calling me..." Tucker states. "Coming!" he adds for emphasis before rushing off.
"Well...Whatever! She doesn't really want you there!" Sam clenches her hands into fists and punches a locker.
"ME? No, she really doesn't want YOU, the LOSER FRIEND, there!!" Danny almost shouts.
Sam's eyes well up with tears and she clenches her fists tighter. "Well, Danny have fun at your party." she chokes out before storming off.
As Sam rounds the corner in the hallway, she gets grabbed by the arm by a pair of white gloves. She is turned intangible and flown through the wall. "Real mature, Danny. But I'm still mad at you!" she shouts angrily.
"Shouting in the hallways is against the rules." a too-familiar voice grumbles.
A gasp escapes Sam's lips.
