b Danny's POV /b
"The turnout's really good." Tucker told me.
"Don't remind me."
"Dude, come look at Paulina and Dash!"
"Oh my god!" I said while laughing. They were doing the song 'Hips Don't Lie' and it was hilarious. Dash was moving around her, and she was doing Shakira like moves, it was kind of sad. I saw Sam in that outfit from Goth Palace. Man, she looks hot. She's got a really cool black guitar too, it's got purple flames on it too.
"Nice guitar,"
"What?" I said.
"I said nice guitar." It was Valerie.
"Oh, thanks."
"I didn't know you played."
"Yeah, I used to take lessons when I was in middle school, and I took it up again in tenth grade."
"What are you going to do?"
"Sing."
"Song?"
"It's a surprise."
"Hey Tucker, what song is Danny doing?" she asked Tuck.
I gave him a warning look, but he just smiled and said, "Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney."
"Tucker!"
"Hey, look, it's time for me to go on! Sorry Danny, you'll have to kill me later." Tucker said.
"I have to go warm up. See ya later Danny, and good luck."
"You too."
I sat down and tried to calm my nerves. Kwan was doing some embarrassing poetry, and I knew I was next. I stood up, and stood by the entrance to Stage Right.
"Hey Danny."
I turned around and there Sam was. Man, she looked even hotter up close. "Hey Sam, nice guitar."
"Thanks."
I heard Mr. Lancer announcing my act, so I said quickly, "That's my cue. Wish me luck!"
"Good luck."
I went onstage, and took the mike. I took a few deep breaths, and started strumming the guitar. After a moment, I started singing.

When I finished singing, I looked over, and saw Sam crying. I hoped they were tears of happiness, and not tears of sadness. I decided to wait until after Sam sang to go to my hideout to prepare it for her.
