I really didn't want to update yet... but what the hell?
LOL You guys are freaking out over Mona's name. It's not really a big deal... well, kind of...Whatever, you'll find out...
Honestly, so far this is the only story that involves Tucker a lot that I've made recently. The whole thing is basically Sam and Tucker plotting together... But don't think I hate on Tucker, I lurv him. It's just I make mostly Sam and Danny stories where I mostly focus on Sam and Danny
But seriously...
I LURV TUCKER WITH ALL MY HEART
The next day at school was a mess. People kept on asking about Carrie, even people who didn't even know her. Dash was a mess, and he didn't show up for school. Honestly, Danny didn't even know why him, Tucker and Sam showed up today. They were all a mess after what had happened. At lunch, Danny, Tucker, Sam and Mona were all quiet, not because it was awkward, but because they were all still shocked. But Sam was the most uncomfortable out of all of them. Tucker suddenly looked at her.
"Sam, you don't look so good," He started. She gave him a confused expression.
"What?"
"Maybe you should go to the nurse," Danny started to get up to volunteer, but Tucker stopped him. "I'll bring her, just chill here for a while." Tucker lifted Sam from the table by her elbow and led her outside the cafeteria. He stopped in the hallway and looked at her.
"...I'm very confused." Sam said.
"You're not going to the nurse. You're going to tell me more about Mona. Let's start with why you don't want Danny to know." She scoffed.
"Because he doesn't believe me anyway. I don't want him to think I'm going crazy. You are already seeing it my way, I might as well discuss it with you." Tucker sighed and crossed her arms.
"As much as I don't like keeping secrets from Danny, I'll let this one slide... for now." Sam nodded. "Now spill."
"Well... Do you know her real name?" She asked. Tucker shook his head.
"No. Everyone, even the teachers call her Mona."
"Her name is Desdemona."
"...So?"
"It means 'of the devil'."
"So?" He said again.
"So, it can't just be a coincidence that all these things line up." As Sam and Tucker talked, Danny and Mona stayed at the lunch table. Danny had his arms on the table, laying his head on them. Mona tapped her fingers on the table before retreating them.
"Are you still... on edge about... you know," She asked.
"I think everyone is... I mean, I've been in some gruesome battles but somehow that was just... different." He said.
"At least you've got people around you to lean on."
"Yeah, I guess." She reached out and touched his arm.
"I'm here to lean on," He slowly sat up straight, retreating his arms.
"Yeah..." He felt so awkward around her. But just because he knew she liked him didn't mean he would ignore her. That was just rude, and besides, she knew he was going out with Sam, she wouldn't actually make a move and try to get in the way of that... Would she? "I'm gonna go check on Sam," He got up from the table and made his way out of the cafeteria, but didn't have to go far. He saw Sam and Tucker in the hallway arguing and approached them.
"What's going on?" He asked. Sam and Tucker both looked at him.
"Sam refuses to let me take her to the nurse." Tucker lied. Danny sighed.
"Just let him take you, better safe than sorry. I'll go with you." Sam looked at Tucker as Danny turned her down the hallway to the nurse's.
"Wait, I forgot something in the cafeteria." She said.
Mona sat at the table alone, until a girl came over to her and sat down. Mona had seen her before, she was one of the girls that always hung around Dash and Kwan and Paulina and Star. Her name was Kerri. She had blond hair and brown eyes and looked way too over peppy.
"I heard you talking to Danny," She started.
"Yeah, so?" Mona asked. All of a sudden, the nice, shy girl everyone saw turned snobby and snarky. Even Kerri was a little surprised.
"Well, I just wanted to tell you not to waste your time. I mean, Danny is totally in love with Sam, I can't say the same about her, she doesn't even look interested when she's with him... But I'm getting off topic, the point is, Danny will never leave Sam. Trust me, I know." The bell rang and Kerri got up. "Come on, I'll walk you to class." As they moved away from the table, Sam went over and grabbed her backpack, but not before hearing everything. Is that what people really thought if her? That she didn't even like Danny? Sure, she wasn't very affectionate, but that didn't mean she didn't like him. Normally, she didn't care what other people thought of her, but this was different. Especially if Danny could feel the same way they thought.
She sighed and started to leave the cafeteria, walking slowly through the hallways. Danny and Tucker told her to go to the nurse, but they had to get back to class. She really just wanted to get back to class also, but she knew Danny would be mad that she didn't obey him. As she walked through the doors of the nurse's office, practically all the nurses were all together, working on one student. Sam walked over to see Kerri, and what she saw shocked her. Kerri had a bloody nose, black eyes, bruising everywhere, and honestly, her outcome didn't look so good.
"What happened?" Sam asked.
"We don't know. Mona brought her in, saying she got in a tousle after lunch. We're just doing what we can until the ambulance comes." One of the nurses answered, and that was all she said before she rushed Sam out and closed the door.
Sam stood there in shock for a moment. Someone could actually do that to Kerri? It wasn't just anyone. It was Mona. She knew it was.
Ew, I have the PSAT tomorrow then I'm going pumpkin picking... I don't think I'm going to be in a very good mood after taking a three hour test...
So anyway, review please.
I'm going to go eat food now because I'm a hungry, hungry hippo.
