"Oh no, Danny is going to get in trouble! I have to help him!" I mutter to myself as I grab Danny without thinking, I shut my eyes and flew up. 

I was just in the nick of time as I heard his father say, "Yup perfect."

Realizing what I had done as I landed Danny in his room, I played dumb and began to scold him with a frown as I dusted myself off. "Jeez Danny, cutting it close don 'cha think? You know the people that live here are ghost hunters, right? If he had seen you he would've—"  I cut myself off as I pointed a finger at Danny before pretending that I realized he wasn't Phantom. 

Stepping back in 'shock' I say "You're not Danny Phantom!"

Laughing Danny shakes his head. "No I'm not but thanks for saving me, uh hey wait a second you're that ghost girl that fights with the ghost boy aren't you?" 

I take his hand and start shaking it as I introduce myself for the fourth time to Danny. "Yeah I'm (s/n) and the ghost boy I fight with is Danny Phantom. Uh, thanks for not freaking out um..."

 "Right. I'm Danny...Danny Fenton, and don't worry I won't tell my parents or anything," Danny reassured me as I chuckled, thanked him, waved goodbye, and flew away.

Sam, Tucker, Danny, and I were hanging out at the Nasty Burger trying to think of what to do Saturday night.

"So Saturday night plans; I say we hit the amusement park, I hear the new roller coaster has a free fall that'll take three years off of your life expectancy," Sam said excitedly holding up three fingers when Tucker brought up a good point. 

"No way! It costs four bucks just to get in there, not to mention food and stuff."

"Hey if you're tapped out I could lend you the cash," Sam offered as Tuck put up quotation marks with his fingers as he identified the word lend.

"Lend means repay and repay is out of my reach."

 Before he could continue I cut him off offering an idea. "How about we just have a movie marathon night instead? Tucker, you could sleep over at Danny's place and Sam mine so when it gets too late to be in the same house, we can just meet up again in the morning, also we can watch all kinds of movies and get cheaper snacks at the store. Right, Danny? Danny? Hello?"

 I looked over at Danny to notice he wasn't paying attention to our conversation at all, we all turned our heads to see what he was focused on: Dash handing out invitations to his party, including Paulina which made Danny sigh. 

"Great it's the hottest party of the whole school year, and Paulina is going and I'm not again."

Glaring at Paulina, Sam and I state in unison, "I don't understand what you see in her." 

"Are you two kidding? She's only like...Perfectly flawless," Danny said looking shocked at us as we listened in to her order.

 "Okay um...Let me get the mighty meaty cheesy melt. Um...How meaty is that?"  

"That would be mighty meaty." 

"Can I get it might less meaty?"

"That's a mighty minne meaty cheesy melt."

Sam and I rolled our eyes as she remarked, "You're right...She's a goddess." 

"Why don't we get invited to the really cool parties? We've got style, charm, and good looks. At least I do anyway," Tucker asked as I facepalmed myself because the answer was so clear. 

Pretending to be confused as well I tap my chin with my finger and hum in confusion before answering Tucker's question. "I don't know Tucker maybe because people are so judgmental that if you weren't born pretty, got Botox or plastic surgery or even smear so much make-up on that you look like a clown. I mean I get it, sometimes make-up is the only way to fit in but you don't need a thick layer of every makeup out there to look pretty. Otherwise, if you're not up to date with the latest IN thing people won't give you a chance? Maybe that's it but let's not get ridiculous here," I say sarcastically when Sam chimed in. 

"Yeah dream on, on the social circuit, we're as invisible as the two ghost kids in their ghost mode. Not that it'll matter five years from now but we have each other right?" 

Before anyone could answer Sam, Dash smacked Danny in the face with an invitation and then slid one to me as he said, poking Danny. "Here! Your sister made me invite you and your girlfriend...JUST YOU TWO. Show up, shut it, go home and nobody gets hurt." 

Danny smiled down at his invitation while I frowned at mine. 

Suddenly a girl walked by, noticing Danny. "Hey, Danny~" 

Next, Kwan ran up, throwing his arms up in the air screaming, "What's up Fenton? (l/n)? Party!" 

Then finally Paulina had to walk by as she remarked, "See you Saturday, Danny." 

Looking down at his invitation again Danny stammered to say "I'm invited, you're invited, we're invited! I've-we've arrived!" Finishing his sentence Danny pointed at me then hugged his invitation in glee. 

Sam began to be sarcastic as she muttered, "Swell, send us a postcard from Popularity Ville."

 Grabbing my hand and rushing me out of the Nasty Burger Danny shouted, "We will!"

Old Author's Note -

Author: I'm sorry if the comment that (y/n) said was insulting about why they weren't popular but it is the truth. But there is still nothing wrong with wearing make-up, getting plastic surgery, liking the latest cool things, or getting Botox but please do all that to make you TRULY happy and not because you're doing it to be popular. You'll learn that you'll be happier accepting yourself for who you are and only caring about the opinions of those you love like yourself, your friends, and family that loves you. Just wanted to clear that up, see ya next chapter!
