A/N: So I decided to not wait for reviews since nobody seems to be reviewing. :( "That makes me a sad Panda." Haha. I had my friends pick an actor. So here is the second chapter! And yes summary has been changed! I also know that chapters two, three, and four are going to focus more on the project. Chapter five and six are going to be the party. Chapter seven and up are going to be the aftermath of the party and the project. See, it'll get interesting. XD
Disclaimer: Look at first chapter.
Chapter Two
I made my way to my light switch and clicked it off. Ahh, the dark. It's nice to see when I am as tired as I am. I stumbled my way over to my bed not being able to see. When I reached it I pulled the blankets back, lay in bed, and covered myself up. As soon as I turned on my stomach to get comfortable I feel asleep, dreaming a great dream about defeating Vlad.
I woke up the next morning feeling much better than I had yesterday. Today I actually felt rested. I yawned, stretching, as the morning sun shone through the window. I check my clock and noticed that it's 6:30. Half an hour to get ready. I sigh and stand slowly, ready to continue my normal routine.
I got dressed, brushed my teeth, and hair all by 6:45. Now it was just time for breakfast. I made my way downstairs. I could hear Jazz talking to my mom from the bottom of the steps. How the hell is she this perky in the morning, I'll never know.
When I got in the kitchen I knew it would be directed to me.
"Good morning Danny." She said overly too happy. Hah, I knew it. I looked at her and faked a smile.
"Morning." I sat down at the table as she brought over some cinnamon rolls, freshly made Pillsbury ones. Yummm. I grabbed one off the plate and took a bite. The sweetness of the icing was amazing to my taste buds. I smiled for real as I chewed. It was delicious.
"I hope they're okay." Jazz knew they weren't burnt so they were going to be good. I hate when she says stuff like that just to get a compliment.
I swallowed my bite and looked at her like she was on drugs.
"They're fine. They always are. You have to stop doing that." She glared at me, figures. I scoffed and rolled my eyes but continued eating that delectable cinnamon roll.
"I'm glad you enjoy them." She smirked at me. We continued to eat in silence. I figured we had enough conversation for the morning. I can only handle so much of her.
After eating 3 of cinnamon rolls I looked at my phone to check the time, 7:02am. Not too bad but I'll still be late. I said goodbye to my mom. Jazz already left, after my second one. I should have took that as my cue to leave too. I walked out the door and quickly hid, going ghost.
I flew up in the sky and rushed to school. Sam and Tucker were definitely waiting outside by now. I dipped down behind the dumpster, landing with ease. I went back to being boring old Danny Fenton. I slumped out from behind the dumpster and made my way towards the entrance. Just as I thought, they were standing there, looking impatient.
"What took you so long dude?" Tucker asked as I stood in front of them.
"I got really into eating breakfast this morning." I laughed as I walked past them opening the door. Like every other day, I held the door open long enough for one of them to hold it open themselves.
We had about ten minutes till homeroom so we went to one of the more secluded hallways in the morning. One that had a bathroom. Tucker liked to go pee before homeroom. "There's not enough time between classes." That was always his excuse. But I know it was probably to make sure he was decent so he can try to impress a girl. I feel bad for him actually. The only person I care to impress is Sam.
I looked down as we approached the lockers by the bathroom. I stopped and leaned against the locker. I could hear Sam lean right next to me. And I mean like right there. Her shoulder was brushing against mine, very lightly, but to me it felt like it had actually been leaning on me. My breath hitched a little. I know I was blushing too. Damned hormones.
"So I was talking to Tucker last night," I heard Sam start to say, so I tried to focus on what she was saying, rather than the little contact I was having with her, "and I'll go to the bitch's party." She sounded disgusted. Her face matched her tone. It was a bit ridiculous. I know why she hated her, but I'll never understand why she hates her that much.
"I'm happy that you decided to go. Me and Tucker really want to." I said in the not so happy tone. She shifted her weight. Now her arm WAS against mine. Shit. It sent electricity through my body. I know I shook. She looked at me confused. How was I supposed to explain that?
"What was that?" I knew she was going to ask that. What could it have been? Ghost sense? No, I would have gone ghost. Just a random chill? More likely. Or I could've just felt a cold breeze?
"I just got a random chill." I smiled at her goofy. I know it was goofy. What's wrong with me around her? Normally I can contain my stupidity around her. She blushed though? Well that's not what I expected.
"Oh, but anyways, like I said yesterday, even if I didn't go, that doesn't mean you guys can't." She shifted away from me. Fuck, I messed something up. I shifted my weight so my arm could be back against hers. I had to be really red by now. I'm being an idiot. But again, she blushed. Something has to be wrong with her. What if she's sick or something? She would have said something though. I don't understand girls.
"Yeah." Smart reply Danny. I could have smacked myself in the forehead. Idiot. You know what else I did that was dumb, nodded. To me it made me seem like I wasn't listening to her. I didn't want to make her think that.
"Yeah, whatever Danny." She sighed out. I could tell she was mad. I need to fix this.
"I wouldn't have wanted to go without you. And, you know, Tucker wouldn't have either." Nice slip up there. I got the sleep I needed but I'm worse than yesterday. She was looking me right in the eyes. She had a small smile on her face. I was still facing forward, but I turned to face her. Our lips were only a few inches away. It took everything in my power to not look down at her purple lips. The thought made me smile.
"Thanks Danny."She said leaning in a little closer. I don't think she noticed. I think all she did was move her feet to get more comfy. "And, I'll thank Tucker too. Heh heh." She looked down and away from me. She was red now. She was embarrassed. It's so cute when she blushes. I love it.
"You're welcome Sam. I would never leave you alone." I didn't know if that was smart or dumb to say but it was true.
"Thanks." She looked at me and smiled. She's so gorgeous. I was so drawn in by her face, it took me a second to realize she was moving closer, with her arms out. Soon they were wrapped around my neck and she was giving me a hug. I hugged her back of course. I'd never pass up the chance to wrap my arms around her waist.
"What did I miss?" I could hear the smugness in his voice. Great way to ruin a moment Tucker. She pulled back really quickly.
"Nothing." She said. She looked a bit, panicky? Tucker just nodded.
"Uh-huh." He had to add it.
"Shut up. Let's just get to homeroom." She turned around and started leading the way.
I glared at Tucker. He was grinning. The bastard. I shook my head in annoyance and started walking, with my ass of a friend next to me.
The morning was the same. I hate the days repeating themselves. My life was getting rather, predictable.
We walked into English with a few minutes till the bell. Apparently we were being looked for.
"Good morning Danny." Paulina walked over to us with her smile on her face. I don't see what I saw in her over Sam. Maybe I'm just naturally stupid?
"Good morning." I smiled back. I knew what she was going to bring up, and for Sam's sake I hope she walks away when she gets her answer.
"I was wondering if you guys are coming to my party." Her smile got bigger. I don't know how. She really is conceited.
"Yeah we'll be there." It was easier for me to answer for us.
"Great! I can't wait! It's really going to be a blast you guys." She practically squealed it out, jumping a little. I know where Tucker's looking. I roll my eyes.
"Me neither." I try to make her happier to just go away and say "see you then" or something, but I don't think I'm that lucky.
"So what time do are you allowed out till?" She looked at us expectant of a crazy late time.
"Not sure yet." I really wasn't. Me, Tucker, and Sam haven't really discussed it and Sam seemed in no mood.
"Well then just tell me Saturday." She slightly turned, "Talk to you later Danny." Was it me or was the waving of the hand and that look she was giving me flirting? Great, now they're trying to emotionally fuck with me.
She walked away, that's all that matters. I looked at Tucker and Sam. Their faces as equally questionable as mine. Sam's with anger still there. Whether from Tucker or Paulina, I didn't know.
The bell rang and Mr. Lancer walked in the room. The other students and us scrambled to our seats.
"Okay class. The result poll of the survey and project has been finished. I will pass back the paper." He walked in front of his desk slowly and grabbed a stack of papers. I was a bit excited to see who won. This seemed like an okay kind of project. He handed 5 papers to the first row and started talking.
"As you can see Johnny Depp was the winner. So dialogue and actions from the movie shall be performed by you. The movies you will be doing are listed on the paper. I will assign you with a partner or small group and a scene. I understand Sweeney Todd is a musical but the songs shall be turned into dialogue. All the more challenge to bring it to life." He continued passing out the papers. When we all had them he continued.
"So, I'll now assign you your partner's. There are three movies on here and each of you will get a different scene. First up for Sweeney Todd Demon Barber of Fleet Street will be Samantha Manson and Dashiel Baxter as Mrs. Lovett and Sweeney Todd." Everyone could hear them groan. "Your scene will be the song "A little priest" turned into dialogue." Now they were sighing in slight relief. At least in that song they sung about cooking people and not much Mrs. Lovett towards Sweeney Todd affections.
"Next for Corpse Bride shall be Daniel Fenton, Paulina Marcellus, and Valerie Gray. Daniel will be Victor, Paulina will be Emily. Your scene will be the scene of their wedding." I didn't mind it that much. I had only seen the movie once and barely remembered it. But a wedding scene with Paulina might make Sam a little mad. I am going to have to see her and Valerie outside of school.
I also know she has a slight problem with Valerie. But I know she'll put up with it. I mean, she's working with a guy that's bullied me daily for years. But if we had a choice in the matter it'd be us and Tucker.
"For Pirates of the Caribbean, I have decided that one of the three groups will do a scene from one movie. For Curse of the Black Pearl shall be Joshua Riley and Nicholas Anderson. Josh you'll be Captain Jack Sparrow and Nick you will be Barbossa. Your scene is the final battle between the two taking place in Isla de Muerta." I zoned out. Not caring till I heard Tucker's name.
"And Tucker Foley. Kwan you will be Beckett. Tucker you will be Davy Jones. Star you will be Elizabeth. And I'm sorry Valerie but you have to be Barbossa. Your scene is the parley of what to do with what to do with Will and Jack."And now it was time to drown him out again. This was going to be fun. It probably took him ten more minutes to finish with that. He got in a little more detail on how exactly we need to do the project and actually act out the scenes. This was going to be awkward for everyone.
"Now we won't be working on these in class. You will have to meet up with your partner's after school." I swear he did this on purpose to me. "Today is May 25th so they are due on June 8th. Two weeks people. The last day of school is the 11th. This is an important grade. The whole presentation is going to be graded on 50 points for dialogue, 20 points for organization, 50 points for acting it out, and 30 points for props that may be needed, and 50 points for costumes. That is a total of 200 points. Remember, you have to be the character." He smiled at all of us knowing exactly how we felt right now. He was doing this for some sadistic enjoyment. What a sick man.
"You can have the last 30 seconds or so to get your stuff collected together and you may go." He smiled. By the time someone even reached the door the bell rang.
I again walked out with Sam and Tucker.
"This is fantastic!" Sam practically growled out. "I do not want to have to see that asshole longer than I already have to." I felt bad for her. She did have to suffer with Dash. Should I offer for myself to suffer too? I sigh. Of course I'm going to, even if I don't want to.
"We can practice together Sam. At least you wouldn't be in the room alone with him then." I look at her hopeful that it will make her feel a little better.
"Thank you Danny." She looked at Tucker expectantly.
"Yeah I'll be there too."He said it like he really didn't want to. I know he didn't.
The school day continued on. We went to lunch, ate, and talked. After we went to our classes and just waited for the day to be over. We had decided during lunch that today we weren't going to hang out. Sam was being forced to some dinner party with her parents and Tucker had to catch up on work, which didn't sound like a bad idea considering I'm still behind. With that knowledge I said bye, went behind the dumpster and transformed, and made my way home. I was greeted by no other than Jazz and my parents frantic talk about ghosts. I walked up to my room and shut my door behind me, secretly hoping that a ghost would attack.
Time dragged on as I did my homework with the news on in the background. Nothing, again. The day was another boring day in my list of many. The only thing plaguing my mind was that soon it wouldn't be just me, Tucker, and Sam; it was going to be me, Sam, Tucker, Paulina, Dash, Valerie, Kwan, and Star. I smirked as I thought about this laying down. Maybe things would get a bit more interesting.
A/N: So I promise Chapter Three will be longer. Considering it's the first day of the eight of them practicing their lines and getting things organized. I didn't want to do any ghost fighting scenes because I suck at fighting scenes/action scenes. I hope that doesn't disappoint. I will not update unless I start getting reviews. Start reviewing people! Lol. I want at least 8-12 before I continue; I don't want to waste my time writing something people don't want to see more of. Thanks for reading!
