In a high school in Canada; a cheerleader named Sammy sighed as she watched several students ask each other out for the upcoming Prom and there was definitely no shortage of hopefuls trying to ask out her older twin sister Amy but they kept being 'politely' being turned down. She was putting on an act of being nice about it but Sammy knew that she looked down and thought very lowly of most of the students there; only wanting to go to Prom with the most elite of elite where she would be crowned Queen.
"Oh turned down by Amy; I knew it was a long shot but do you think that Samey will go with me?" muttered someone to their friend as Sammy sighed walking away with tears. No one asked her to the Prom or really asked her without being turned down by her sister first. She was the back up choice and the lame no good younger sister as said by her bully of a sister.
She kept insisting that people call her 'Samey' which she hated; Amy kept insisting that she was doing the same things as her but only worse. But it was only because she was doing things first and Amy kept insisting to do what Sammy was doing. Cheerleading was her idea but Amy decided to upstage her, steal the Captain's position and get all the popularity that it entails.
She really did want to go to the Prom with someone but not with someone only asking her only as second best to go actually going out with her sister. She wiped away tears as she put something in her locker but jumped as there was that classmate of her and Amy; Lincoln who she had first met when they were freshmen. He had moved from the US and she didn't really know much about him other than he was nice, kind of funny and into magic and nerd stuff.
"Want to see a magic trick Sammy?" Lincoln asked and Sammy blinked upon Lincoln actually referring to her by her actual name and not 'Samey'. Sammy nodded as he then took out a top hat and brought out a bouquet of flowers along with a note and she read it out surprised as it read that he was acting her to the Prom.
Before she could even think about it; Amy shoved her away and said "I don't remember rejecting you..."
"Because you didn't as I didn't want to ask you out Amy. I wanted to ask out Sammy." Lincoln retorted with a frown as Amy was taken aback and Sammy froze. Lincoln... Actually did want to ask her out and not Amy? She wasn't someone's first choice and Lincoln wasn't bad at all.
"You really don't want to ask out Samey." Amy warned him and Lincoln glared back at her with Sammy shocked by her boldness.
"I actually do want to ask out Sammy!" Lincoln retorted as Sammy gasped out loud at Lincoln's outright defiance and she managed to squeal and say that she would love to go with him. Amy shot them both a warning glare as Sammy took this in.
On the night of the Prom; Lincoln was in his best suit (after being fawned over by his parents and he was grateful that most of his older sisters were still staying over in the US so they were nowhere near here to further embarrass him for this) and had arrived at the Prom to see his date Sammy in a stunning dress. Poor Sammy; so sweet and nice but bullied by her jerk of a sister. He could see through her act and saw how she treated her; not even Lana and Lola at their worst could ever think of doing to eachother anything close to what Amy puts Sammy through.
"What do you think? It was my Mum's Prom dress. When I told her that I got asked out and I said yes... She ran to find it and insisted that I try it on." Sammy explained to him and she giggled when she saw that he was lost for words.
They went in and began to enjoy themselves with a dance and Lincoln went to get her punch but couldn't help but notice Amy whispering to other students and couldn't help but be suspicious. Soon it was time for the announcements of Prom King & Queen and the drama teacher Mr McLean was up on stage tallying the points. "Please come onto the stage... This is a surprise as neither were on the ballots but..." Mr McLean said and Lincoln and Sammy paused as they heard their names called out and the students were clapping for them along with a suspicious Amy.
They were both stunned as they got onto stage but Lincoln looked up and noticed something hanging up from the stage and it was buckets. He pointed this out to Sammy as they were practically pushed to the thrones and there was the crown and tiara ready.
"Thank you Mr McLean and this was a surprise... An honour but I can't accept it... Amy my dear twin sister put her name down and really wanted to be Prom Queen since she was young and this means more to her so... Amy can you please come up..." Sammy said through the microphone and Amy looked stunned and confused.
However she saw the students clapping for her and felt flattered and the applause caused her to unthinkingly go up to the stage and to the stage as Sammy put the tiara on her head.
She stood back along with Lincoln as Amy started going on a speech but then the buckets went down pouring mud right onto her as the students gasped and Lincoln and Sammy tried to hold back laughter. "Are you alright Amy..." Sammy asked going to check on her but Amy angrily pushed her back.
"Get your inferior hands off me! This prank was for you! I spent this entire time planning this and forcing myself to say nice things about you and trying to suggest that the sheep here vote for you and your stupid snow haired loser date so that this can happen to you! You deserve this happening to you Samey!" Amy snapped heard right through the microphone as there were gasps from the students including those who were recording the whole thing. "Plus what is wrong with you idiots! I know that I said to wait until Samey wears the tiara but are we so much the same that you can't tell that it was me!" Amy snapped to the left of the stage to her hired help for this.
"Amy, I suggest..." Mr McLean tried to say going near her only to get shoved off the stage.
"I suggest you get your stupid hands away from me and I hope your stupid worthless department gets more budget cuts!" Amy ranted as she stormed off the stage and pushing students away and destroying decorations and smashing tables.
Lincoln was standing near the exit of the school with Sammy showing her his phone as he looked and saw that the video of Amy's tantrum has already gone viral already. "...Not only will I be fitting you the bill but she can be expected to have detention everyday and banned from all clubs and activities until further notice. I expect that Sammy could take over as the new Cheerleading Captain." Principal Hatchet was telling Amy & Sammy's mother firmly as Amy was off to the side with a towel over her shoulder.
Sammy blinked and Amy ranted "what... You can't boot me off the Squad and give my place to Samey..."
"You are already in enough trouble for your antics ruining this night for everyone so I am telling you now that referring to your sister by that nickname will only make things worse for yourself young lady! You can expect your allowance stopped and you will be working weekend and holiday jobs until you pay back the bill!" yelled her mother shaking her head making Amy's mouth fall wide open.
"So not fair! You always liked her more!" ranted Amy as her mother was unimpressed as Lincoln chuckled but then there she was coming near them.
"This is the boy you were telling me about Sammy? Lincoln; I am so sorry that you and Sammy had your night ruined by Amy; I am telling you that she was always jealous of Sammy and wanting to be the same as her! I should have set her right long before and Sammy tells me that you are a magic whiz... Sammy honey; you really should have invited him over to the house. why on earth did he not come to collect you. This has to be fixed and he should come over at some point and I will make sure that Amy behaves herself if she is there..." Sammy's mother told them as Sammy was red in the face.
"Sorry about that Lincoln... Mum, this is so embarrassing" Sammy whispered as Lincoln giggled.
"You think that you are embarrassed I promise you that it will be nothing compared to how I will feel when my parents and my sisters meet you..." Lincoln promised as she giggled.
