After school the next day we were hanging out in the gym and Sam was still mocking the boys which to be fair they deserved and it was pretty funny. "I'm Ghostboy, I'm FryerTuck. We don't need your help because you two are girls!" Sam said in a mocking tone as we both cross our arms and give the two a smug smirk. Getting annoyed Tucker tries to make a basketball shot and misses as says to us "Alright, alright enough already." "I can't believe it was you two dusting us all this time, why didn't you say anything?"

Danny questions us as Sam picked up the and let it spin on her finger then let it roll down both her arms before shooting it through the hoop while she explained. "We tried too, but between the condescension and the cockiness we barely had time for anything else." "She does have a point you know, you two do like to gloat about how your pros of the game."

I state, picking up the ball and began to dribble it as I passed it from hand to hand before, spinning it on my finger and making a three-pointer shot. "Well, the main thing is Sam can help me fight Technus while you two are out of commission and then (y/n) can help once she's done helping you study." We instantly glared at Tuck and he corrected himself. "I mean I can help Sam and (y/n) when she can come."

 I take a quick glance at Danny to see he has an apologetic look on his face as he mutters to us "What a mess, it's my fault that Technus is out there while I'm stuck studying the world's dullest subject." I roll my eyes a bit as I swing an arm around him and ask him:

"Oh? When did you start studying math? In fact, when did we have a math test and when did you fail it?" I ask him with a smile and his features instantly lighten up as he gives me a smile and a small laugh when Sam grasped his shoulder stating "Just leave everything to us, Danny, Technus may have the power but we've got the moves." Again Sam shoots a basket as she continues explaining. "We've got codes and secret powerups in our arsenal. Of course, you guys must know all of those too right? Weird, the girls do, maybe you guys need to communicate better." Suddenly we heard Lancer shout our names as the gym door slammed open to reveal him as he ordered me and Danny into his classroom. After a little while of studying, I notice Danny had a disoriented face before he phased through his desk and I quickly pulled him back up, waking him up in the process.

He then got up and walked to Lancer's desk while stretching and I mindlessly follow as Lancer asks "Going somewhere, Mr. Fenton? Miss. (l/n)?" "Just stretching my legs...Oh, writing your sister huh? You have a sister?" Danny asks and a photograph of Lancer wearing a pink floral dress, a curly ginger-colored wig, and lipstick is shown to us and I shiver in disgust as the realization hits me and Lancer starts up again.

"Haven't seen her in ages, can't afford the plane fare. You know this would be an excellent time for you to say "Gosh Mr. Lancer I never realized being a teacher could be so difficult." He gives us an expectant glance and Danny retaliates with "We're 14, we don't really care." Giving out an exasperated sigh Lancer mutters before leaving "Yes, yes...I'm gonna get some air."

Once Lancer was out of the room Danny muttered before raced to his computer and logged into Doomed "Gotta cross teacher of my what I wanna be when I grow up list." "Danny what are you doing? You need to study!" I inform Danny and he tells me "Checking up on Sam and Tuck," He then turns his attention to the screen and starts talking to the two. "You guys there?" "What are you doing online?" "Just checking in, how's it going?" Danny asks the two as they continue to fight.

"We're keeping Technus in check, but he's getting stronger it's just a matter of time before he masters the game." Tucker informs us and Danny began typing and saying his response out loud "Wish we could help, studying is a drag." "Is it Danny?" Lancer asked behind us and we turned around with a shocked face. "Mr. Lancer I...I was just taking the-" "Taking up my valuable time, there are no cheat codes in school Danny OR in life but if you don't care why should I?" He walked back outside and Danny gave a frown, glancing towards the poetry textbook I pick it up and hand it to Danny as I tell him "Danny you said you wanted to become an astronaut, if you really want to do that you have to keep your grades up, so study." 

He looks at me with a small smile and nods, cupping his face with my hand, I rub my thumb over his cheek as I say "You can do this, I'm gonna go home and help Sam and Tuck." Before I could remove my hand Danny grasps it with is own and says with a smile " Thank you (y/n) for always supporting me."

I give a small smile back with a nod and I head home and Danny watches me leave the room sighing in happiness, a light pink forming on his cheeks before shaking his thoughts back to poetry and headed out of the classroom for Mr. Lancer's help. "Um in the poem The Tiger why does he rhyme the words eye and symmetry?" "The poem was written in the early 1800s I'm sure there were multiple ways to pronounce that word."

 "And it's Blake right? William Blake?" Danny asks sitting down next to Lancer who responds with "Actually yes, there were actually other poems he wrote that used the same form of rhyme scheme." "Really? Which ones?"
