Love is Dangerous
Chapter 1
My name is Denise Stanley. I’m a seventh grade student at James K. Polk Middle School. I have a brother and sister, Kevin and Katherine, who are twins. They’re fifteen and they always try to “help” me get through Middle School. We live with our mom and dad who are very encouraging, but they are sometimes embarrassing. I have two friends, Samantha and Calvin Harper, are twins.
When I get older I will be a famous writer, and when people want to know about my life I can just hand them this story. My friends know everything there is to know about me. They know thing like which boy my crush is, Fred Livingston, if I have a boyfriend, only in my dreams, how I feel about make-up, gross, and if I want to be famous, of course I do I’m not crazy.
Tomorrow is the first day of seventh grade!! We were assigned our seats in every class, but I was not upset by that because I was next to Fred in every class. Fred has blonde hair, blue eyes, and he is pretty skinny. He has the world’s sweetest breath and he always treats everyone so nice. His favorite color is the same as mine, red; he never looks at me without smiling. The bad news is my parents say I can’t get a boyfriend till I’m seventeen, which is four years from now. They can get annoying sometimes, but I guess that is how parents are.
Katherine knows I have a crush on Fred, but every time I make her mad she always brings up the “Denise likes Fred” speech. The good thing is I’m the only person that ever pays attention to her. Kevin knows I like Fred, too. Luckily he doesn’t care like Katherine. He is always busy lifting weights, playing football, playing basketball, and running. Katherine is only a cheerleader, so she has plenty of time to mess with me.
Chapter 2
Today was the first day of school. Surprisingly it was the best day of my school year. Why you might ask, well I sat next to Fred in Science, English, History, and in Math. We scrimmaged in basketball and I was on Fred’s team. School might be my favorite place to be for a long time.
We got a new student today. His name is Peter Albus. Peter has brown hair, brown eyes, and a pretty decent smile. Peter had to sit on the other side of me in every class. I almost forgot about Fred because I was very busy staring at Peter in every class.
At lunch Samantha, Calvin, and I sat at a table across from Peter. Calvin was stuffing his food down his throat, while Samantha was eating politely. I still don’t understand how they can be twins; they’re very different from each other. I wasn’t paying a lot of attention to Samantha telling Calvin to be a better eater.
As soon as we put up our trays I heard a voice behind me. I turned around to see who it was, and I was very surprised about who it was. Behind me I could see one of the most beautiful people in the world, Fred. He looked like he really wanted to hit something. He looked at me and then he just walked away. What a jerk!! In Math he tried to get my attention again, but he was interrupted by Peter. When I looked back at Fred he looked like he was ready to kill Peter.
Chapter 3
I think Fred is getting jealous of Peter because he tries to get my attention every time Peter is talking to me. It just doesn’t make sense because I never dated Fred nor has he shown any interest in me. So I have no idea what his problem is.
I had a feeling Katherine would let my secrets out today. One reason is, I tell her everything, and the other reason is, Kevin stole her lip gloss and she thinks it was me so I guess I have it coming today.
Today at school I saw Fred and Peter staring at me completely with complete hatred. Each one caught me in the hall and asked me why I had feelings for the other. I told them that the other was special in their own way. I was so going to kill Katherine and Kevin!!!!
As soon as I got home I took a personal item from Kevin’s room, his sports figurines. I wrote a note saying Katherine took his little Barbie dolls. He actually bought it and got terribly mad at Katherine. She said she did not take his Barbie dolls and then the fists came out. Katherine is actually stronger than she looks because as soon as she punched Kevin in the nose it started gushing out blood. Then Kevin kicked Katherine in the knee and everyone heard a pop. Sadly Mom and Dad came in and broke up the fight. They’re such party poopers.
Kevin and Katherine were rushed to the hospital. The doctor said Katherine had a really bad injured knee, while Kevin had a broken nose. That will teach them to mess with me.
Chapter 4
When I told Samantha and Calvin about the fight, Samantha was disappointed at me. Calvin said that is exactly what he would have done, too. Who could blame him they deserved it.
The bell rang, and luckily we got new seating arrangements in every class. I sat with Samantha to my right, Calvin to my left, Fred behind me, and Peter in front of me. This is just a disaster waiting to happen. Why does everything bad always happen to me?? I’m a good person right??
When lunch came Fred and Peter came and sat with Samantha, Calvin, and me. It was a very strange lunch. First Fred tried to tell me something, but he got interrupted by Peter. Then Peter tried to hold my hand, but his got slapped away by Fred’s. Lastly they both offered to hold my tray, and then they both tried to start a fight saying I liked them better.
Bad news came after school. Samantha said that Fred and Peter were going to have a fight at the main entrance. When I arrived at the entrance I saw Fred and Peter swinging at each other. The bad thing is I tried to stop it and got punched in the face. I had fallen and both guys came and tried to help. As soon as I hit the concrete I blacked out. When I awoke I saw my family and friends standing over me. I looked to the right and saw a bunch of flowers with cards. Everyone was relieved when I woke. My parents had said I could go home today. I had told everyone if I could have a word with Fred and Peter. To my surprise they left. I told Fred and Peter that I’m not interested in them. It took a really hard punch, I fight, and a concussion to figure that out. Wow how confused was I?
As you can see, love could be a very dangerous thing. Especially if two guys like you and you like both of them, too. I learned that the hard way.
