I originally planned to put this story out on June 27th but fanfiction wouldn't let me. Oh well. Now I would like to thank all of my reviewers for the first chapter. I would like to thank passing4insane, Kris5005, dragonham, and Lucky Phantom. By the way this story is like the book and movie Speak.

It's the first day of school and I came with the wrong hair, an outfit that I hate, and a stomach ache. My bus stop is the first stop for the day. Danny, and Tucker are at my bus stop. Danny is on his cell phone
probably talking to Valerie. Tucker is playing with his PDA as usual. When I show up, they both look at me and look shocked at my outfit. My mom forced me to wear...color. My hair is down and straight,
I'm wearing a light purple short sleave shirt, a purple paisley skirt, and black torn up converses. The shoes are the only thing that I liked because it was black. When we were all at the bus stop, we didn't talk
to eachother. The silence was unbearable, but the bus came at that moment. Danny and Tucker got on first before me. Danny was at the back where the A' List sit, and Tucker was in the front where the
Techno Geeks sat. Normally, I'd walk to school, but it was to hot outside to do that. So I just sat in the middle. At the next stop, a girl I never met before got on. She decided to sit with me ofcourse. Her
name is Heather and she just moved here fromOhio. She was wearing light blue denim overall shorts with a light pink top on, and purple sequined sandals. As people go passed us, they snorted like a pig.

When we got to school, thetaunting I had to endure was horrible. As I walked past Dash and his Jock friends,he leanedtowards me and whispered in my ear," Fresh meat. What I'm just being friendly."
Yeah, friendly my ass. I had noone to talk to so I decided to talk to that Heather girl again. She seemed friendly. On my way to 1st period, I was stopped by Mr.Lancer for being 7 minutes late to class. I
got a demerrit. I finally found the class I was looking for. Room 232 Mrs. Hobb, Biology. When I got inside she was assigning lab partners for the year. There was muttering and staring. They were calling
me "Squealantha Mansqueal". It didn't bother me much, but I just want to scream at them to stop and about what happened.

"Hello and you are?" It was the teacher talking to me. "Um...Sam Manson." I replied back. "Welcome to Biology 1. Now your lab partner is...umm let's see...oh yes...here it is...your lab partner is
David Petrakis." I was told. Second period I have Lancer. My English teacher is out of shape and tries to act cool. I call him Fatso. All of my classes have been bad. Even though I don't like Lancer, I like to
write. I can hear Danny behind me laughing about a joke that someone in the A' List made. It's most likely about me. They usually are. I can feel Danny staring at me but I won't turn around. All through class,
I was getting notes passed to me from people on the A' List but I won't accept them. Their probably all saying that I am a squealer or something. Third period was not as bad but I had this class with IT and
Paulina. At least Danny isn't in this class. Tucker is with me in this class. We're taking Algebra 2. IT keeps making snide comments about me all throughout class. Next period I have lunch. I go through the
lunch line and as soon as I walk out, someone thinks its funny to throw mashed patatoes at my shirt. As soon as that happens, people in the cafeteria were screaming 'Oink' at me as I left the room. For the rest of the period, I go into the bathroom to get the mashed patatoes off of my shirt.

My next class I have gym. Gym should be illegal. It is so embarrassing. Even though I'm the best at gym, it's still was humiliating. We were playing dodge ball today and everyone was ganging up on me. I lost terribly for my team. After gym I have chorus. The teacher wanted each of us to sing a song that defined us and to have us test for what section would be best for us. Paulina of course did the song "Popular"
from the musical Wicked. When it was my turn, I did a song calledUnderstandingby Evanescence.

The pain that grips you, the fear that binds you Releases life in me In our mutual shame we hide our eyes To blind them from the truth that finds a way from who we are Please don't be afraid when the darkness fades away The dawn will break the silence, screaming at our hearts My love for you still grows, this I do for you Before I try to fight the truth my final time Can't wash it all away Can't wish it all away Can't cry it all away Can't scratch it all away Lying beside you listening to you breathe The light that flows inside of you, burns inside of me Hold and speak to me of love without a sound Tell me you will live through this and I will die for you Cast me not away, say you'll be with me For I know I cannot bear it all alone Can't fight it all away Can't hope it all away Can't scream it all away It just won't fade away Can't wash it all away Can't wish it all away Can't cry it all away Can't scratch it all away

Can't fight it all away Can't hope it all away Can't scream it all away It just won't fade away

Because I'm dieing if you do
Because I'm dieing if you do
Because I'm dieing if you do
Because I'm dieing if you do
Because I'm dieing if you do

I did it with the high notes in the background too which surprised everyone. When I was done, there was silence then I here applause from the teacher. Then everyone started to applaud. Even though they were mad at me they still clapped . My next class was social studies with some dude named Mr.Neck. He seems really mean. This class I have with both Tucker and Danny. I really am going to like this. During class a thought came to my mind.
'How long would it take for people to realize if I just stopped talking?' I as of then decided to not talk but I will talk to teachers and my parents so they don't get suspicious. My last class of the day is Art. This class I also have with
both Danny and Tucker. But I also have it with Paulina, Valerie, Star, Kwan, and Dash/ IT. The class is taught by Mr.Freeman. Mr.Freeman is a tall guy with shoulder length blonde hair that he has pulled into a ponytail, a bright
yellow shirt under a black blazer, and has on black pants.

"Welcome to art, the only class where you'll find your soul if you dare. Don't ask me how to draw a face. Ask me to help you find the wind. " As soon as he said that, people's eyebrows were shooting up. Everyone was thinking
along the lines of, 'Is this guy nuts?' He then picked up a globe with a hole where Alaska should be. Inside were little pieces of paper where objects like clown or tree were writen on them. Valerie was the one who picked clown.
"Mr. Freeman, I had a bad experience with a clown when I was little. I don't want to relapse and go back into therapy." Valerie told Mr. Freeman. He replied saying, "Oh well fear is a good place to start with art." When it came to
my turn, I got tree. "I learned how to draw a tree in the second grade." I said. He replied saying, "Oh really? Well, why don't you show me. Don't worry I won't grade you or anything." He gave me a piece of chalk and told me to go
up to the board. I went up and people were muttering saying 'It's Mansquealer'. Mr Freeman told them," No commentary please." When I was at the board, I drew the trunk which looked like a rectangle, and then I drew a
circle on top to be like the leaves. "Well, that's a good start. Let's see how that looks at the end of the year." Mr Freeman said after seeing my "tree".

It was the end of the day and I didn't want to be on the bus. So I walked home. This had to be the worst first day in the history of first days. When I got home, I wasn't surprised to find that my parents were not there. I made my
way up to my room where I went and took a nap. I woke up to hear my father yelling at my mom. He must have been out drinking again. I looked at the clock and found that it was 7:00 in the evening. My father then came storming
into my room. I knew he was going to hit me so I prepared for the pain. At 8:30, he was done beating me because he had passed out. I observed that he had given me a black eye, briused arms and legs, and I had belt marks
all over my body. To make matters worse, it suddenly got cold meaning only one thing. Danny was here and I couldn't hide my briuses. Oh Great. How am I going to explain this?


How is Sam going to explain this? What if the ghost that is in her room isn't Danny? Those are good questions. But if it is Danny will she tell him what happened at the party? You'll have to find out in the next chapter. Review and
remember no flames!

Sneak Preview:
"Sam, how did you get all of those briuses?"
"Umm...I tripped?"
"Yeah...I'm real convinced."
"What do you want Danny?"

What did he come for? You'll find out in the next chapter of SPEAK.
