Danny VS Dylan

Chapter 3

I went all through gym seething with anger and jealousy (though I'd never actually admit it). How could Cathy do that to me? Hug another guy! I thought I had made it clear to everyone that Cathy was my girl, wait no. Chris and Sam were probably the only ones who knew I liked Cathy. I made everyone else think I liked Wendy and I would hit on her constantly. I guess I wasn't ready to admit to everyone else that I liked one of my friends, instead of some popular, stuck-up girl.

"Danny you can't seriously still be jealous," Chris mentioned at lunch. I hadn't touched any of my food and I was even more ticked off, because Cathy wasn't sitting with us, she was sitting with the dude she had hugged.

"Hey guys," Sam said as she joined us. She followed my gaze over to where Cathy and the new guy were sitting and she sighed. "His name is Dylan Anderson, he just moved here," Sam whispered.

"If he just moved here then how does he know Cathy?" I asked bitterly.

"Can you be any more jealous?" Chris asked and I glared at him.

"I'm not jealous I'm just..." I trailed off trying to find a word to relate my anger and fury into something.

"Jealous," Chris and Sam said at the same time.

"So how was student council?" Chris asked changing the subject quickly.

"It was interesting," Sam replied. "We've come up with an idea to have a dance," Sam added and I looked over at her.

"A dance?" Chris inquired and Sam nodded.

"It'll be held Friday night," Sam continued and side glanced at me. "If I'm not mistaken either, its the perfect opportunity for someone to ask someone else out to the dance and maybe you know mend a rift that just so happens to have come between them," Sam said and Chris smiled and looked down at his food while I shot Sam an angry glare.

"Very funny," I muttered.

"It's not a bad idea though," Chris said in Sam's defense. "If you ask Cathy maybe she'll think you're really sorry about what happened," Chris added and Sam nodded.

"Ask her after school, she probably won't be that mad at you anymore," Sam agreed and I sighed.

"You're not going to let me do otherwise are you?" I asked and Sam and Chris shared a glance.

"Exactly," Chris and Sam said simultaneously. I grumbled angrily for the rest of lunch, but Sam and Chris still insisted I ask her right after school and finally I gave in to them and said I would, not that they were giving me a choice anyway. I went through the rest of the day trying to think of what I was going to say to Cathy. What is Sam was wrong and she was still completely mad at me? Finally the bell rang signaling the end of the school day. Sam and I met up and after we got our backpacks and everything we stood outside the school waiting for Cathy to come out, hopefully alone.

"I can't believe you're actually making me go through with this," I muttered angrily and Sam smiled.

"Trust me, if you want to impress Cathy, asking her out to the dance is no better way," Sam defended.

"Well, if you want to set me up so much why don't I make you ask Chris to the dance?" I asked angrily and Sam fidgeted and I looked at her.

"Well the thing is, that Chris already asked me to the dance and I said yes already," Sam said and I gaped at her. I was about to say something when Sam gave me a shove forward. "There's Cathy and look she's alone, go now," Sam hissed and I walked over to Cathy anxiously. What if something went wrong? What if I said something wrong and insulted her? Cathy spotted me soon enough and she stared at be blankly for a few seconds before a small smile crossed her face.

"Hey Danny," Cathy greeted. "Look I'm sorry for being so mad at you this morning, I kind of overreacted a bit I guess," Cathy said and I smiled, this was a good start.

"Don't worry about it and anyway I have to ask you something," I said and Cathy looked up puzzled.

"I'm all ears," Cathy smiled. I took a deep breath and side glanced over my shoulder to see Chris and Sam watching anxiously.

"I was just wondering if maybe you'd like to go to the dance on Friday with me," I stated and Cathy stared at me without saying a word and then she shifted her gaze away shyly.

"Well..." Cathy started.

"Well, what?" I asked nervously.

"Well, someone already asked me and I kind of already said yes," Cathy whispered.

"What?" I said and Cathy looked at me apologetically.

"I'm sorry Danny, but Dylan beat you to me," Cathy said and then she looked over my shoulder. "There's Dylan, would you like to meet him?" Cathy asked.

"No, I'm good," I said and turned and walked away back over to Sam and Chris. When I looked back over Cathy and Dylan exchanged a quick hug before they turned and started to walk towards Cathy's house and probably Dylan's.

"Well," Chris prompted.

"What did she say?" Sam finished.

"She said no," I said and both exchanged shocked looks.

"Did she tell you why?" Sam asked.

"Is she still mad at you?" Chris asked.

"No," I stated. "Dylan already asked her and she said yes already," I stated and Sam and Chris exchanged sympathetic glances.

"Look Danny its my fault, I shouldn't have gotten your hopes up so quickly," Sam stated and I shook my head.

"It's not your fault, its Dylan's," I said putting as much fury into my voice when I spoke his name.

"Well, I've got to go, I'll see you guys tomorrow," Sam called and raced away as her mom's car pulled up in front of the school. Then it was just Chris and I and we were about to start walking home when an idea popped into my head.

"Chris, can the computer in the clubhouse get information on humans?" I asked and Chris shrugged.

"I've never tried," Chris replied and I grabbed his arm and started pulling him towards Cathy's house. "Why?" Chris asked.

"Because, we're going to find out who this Dylan guy really is," I muttered and with Chris along with me, we headed towards the clubhouse, maybe I could get some answers.

Sry the chapters are kind of short. I promise I'll make the next ones a little bit longer, I say a little bit because I don't know if it'll reach more than like four or five pages, but knowing me I can drabble on about anything for a long time...hahaha...read and review!!! Thanks ~Warriorgirl232
