The Most Dangerous Public High School on Earth * On Hold *

Chapter 4 - The Threat

Daniel was giving me a puzzled look as I tried to say will during lunch.

" W- I said." W' Wi- Wi-"

" What are you trying to say," asked Daniel.

"W- W - Wi- Will y- Will you-"

Then Brittany came and sat next to Daniel and without hesitating she demanded." Daniel, go to the dance with me."

" No," Daniel said.

" Go to the dance with me."

" Nope."

" Go to the dance with me!"

" No matter what you say, I'll always say no!"

" Come on, don't tell me your going with this ugly nerdy whore." She was pointing at me. That made my blood boil.

" Now," I said." Don't-

" Come over here and make fun of my best friend. At least she don't look like clown with all that make up on. She is naturally beautiful."

I was red in the face and Brittany looked like she was about to blow up." Hmph, fine. But your loss."

Then she sashayed back to her table.

I appreciated what he said. It made me blush to my feet. I probably look like a skinny tomato  right now.

 Though this is the perfect timing - Brittany is with her friends and Daniel just made this huge compliment about me.

" Thanks for defending me."

" No problem, it was the truth anyway." If I could possibly get any redder I just did. 

" Hey um," said Daniel." Will you go -

" Stop! Were you going to say to the dance with me?"

" Yeah." He said sheepishly. " Will - 

" Don't ask me to the dance!"  I seriously didn't want to go as a monkey to the dance. No way.

" All right then," Daniel said, looking hurt.

"Daniel I didn't mean- 

Just then the bell rang for the next period.

" Oh great ," Daniel said." The bell."

Then he stood up and left without another word.

Just great, now Daniel thinks I rejected him. I just can't believe he was going to ask me to the dance. Normally I'll be okay with wearing a monkey costume but since Daniel there, I want to look special. Now I just lost my chance to ask him to the dance and probably our friendship. Just great. Look what a stupid bet did. No, look what a stupid girl did..

Since I all my classes were with Daniel because the school can't afford different class teachers and switching. Plus it's a bad idea. Your stuff might get stolen. I tried to talk to Daniel during classes about why I did that  and to ask him but he ignored me, he was putting his hands to his ears and saying blah, blah,blah. That was childish but funny. Though I gave up. It was pointless. 

When it was time to leave , someone grabbed my hand real hard. I looked back to see who it was. Of course, it was Brittany. She kept squishing my hand and said." Don't go to the dance with Daniel, or you will regret it." Then she smiled evilly and left.

I looked at my hand it was big and puffy, wait, that's how it get when I'm around Roses, Shit.  How did she know I was allergic to them?

Then Daniel came from out a nowhere with a concern look on his face."  Are you okay? Did she hurt you?

" Uh , my hand."

Then he averted his eyes to my hand and winced." How did she-

" Roses."

"Your allergic to roses?"

"Don't say that, it sounds weak."

" That's an allergy, so its not your fault. How did she know though?"

" I don't know maybe my birth certificate is around here somewhere. Wait, I thought you weren't talking to me.

" Weren't. That's all in the past. How come you didn't let me finish?'

I told him my story and he laughed." A monkey costume really, so you were going to ask me yourself."

I nodded.

"  I'm waiting."

He was smirking at me, it was cute but annoying.

" Daniel will - will you- will you g- will you go to the dance wi- with me?"

He smiled and said." I'll be glad to." 

When I came home I told Rebecca the news. 

" Nooo!" Rebecca exclaimed." I don't want to dress up as a witch."

" You won't, it ok"

She smiled." Thanks Sam, you are a great hermana." She must have been real happy since she doesn't really speak Spanish to me, unless she's happy. Hermana - sister.

Well she probably wasn't thinking this 1 year ago when I almost burned her and the house. It happened like this.

" Samantha," my mom said." Can you please make the rice today, I'm tired."

"Okay." I stoop up and did the steps to make rice.

2 hour later I smelt something burning. Damn it, I forgot about  the rice. Unfortunately I opened the cap and therewas a freak fire in the pan. Rebecca sae me and rushed over to spill water on it making it worse and burning her clothes.

She started jumping around like a crazy hippo.

Uh oh.

She quickly went inside the bathroom.

 "OMG! MOM, DAD!"

They came and asked." What's- Omg, Samantha what did you do?!"

My dad grabbed the fire extinguisher and quickly put out the fire.

You can imagine the punishment was after the fire and Rebecca, I got grounded for a year for no allowance and technology.there's was a lot of screaming and yelling. It was the worse day of my life and that's saying a lot.

I quickly forgot about that day. It was along time ago. Though I promised myself, I'll never make rice again, it's dangerous
