My thoughts lingered on the past few days, each one a pleasant adventure. Ever since that ghost had attacked the mall three days ago, Danny and I have grown so close, but why does it feel so…wrong?
Something just isn't right
I can feel it inside
The truth isn't far behind me
You can't deny
I changed into my goldenrod pajamas and took a good look at myself in my dresser mirror. I really like Danny, but… well what do I do?
"Get a hold of yourself Gray, you fight ghosts you shouldn't have so much trouble with just one boy!"
I muttered angrily, I shook my head and walked to my bed and crawled underneath the covers, just before flicking off the lamp next to my bed.
When I turn the lights out
When I close my eyes
Reality overcomes me
I'm living a lie
That's when I realized it, 'What if Danny isn't the ONE?' If that's what it is I can't endanger him with my ghost fighting! I curled up into a ball underneath the covers and began sobbing, I couldn't do it, but I have to.
When I'm alone I
Feel so much better
And when I'm around you
I don't feel…
How do I tell him?
If I look him in the eyes, I might just crack, those beautiful baby blue eyes filled with pure innocence, the boy would be shattered! How can I shatter such a pure soul?
Together It just wasn't right.
It doesn't feel right at all
Together
Together we built a wall
Together
Holding hands we'll fall
Hands we'll fall
This has gone on so long
I realize that I need
Something good to rely on
Something for me
I felt myself slowly drift off to sleep; dreams haunted me beneath closed lids. Dreams I would not soon forget, Danny as Phantom. That one scared me the most. Others Danny ended up being killed or severely injured and on the brink of death, all because of my ghost hunting. When I woke up I knew what I had to do.
My heart is broken
I'm lying here
My thoughts are choking on you my dear
On you my dear
On you my dear
I walked onto the school grounds and saw him with Sam and Tucker sitting at a picnic table. I took a deep breath and walked towards them 'Careful Val, think this through.' I thought to myself.
"Danny." I began, I saw his eyes light up as he walked towards me. Tuck and Sam snuck away quickly so they wouldn't interrupt.
"Wow. I'm glad you're here. I wanted to ask you something." It appeared that he was holding something in his hand.
"Actually, me first, Danny, I've had a lot of fun these last few days. But my life's way too complicated right now or us to be anything other than...friends."
His eyes fell,
"Just friends? But I thought..."
"I thought too. But there's something important I have to do and I don't want you to get hurt because of it. Besides, it's not like you were gonna give me some lame class ring, right?" I put my hand on his shoulder and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
Danny quickly shoved his hand into his pocket, and chuckled,
"Yeah. Right."
I smiled half-heartedly before I walked off to the other side of the building. I closed my eyes and felt my new and improved suit snake its way around my body, covering it entirely with red and black armor. When the transformation was finished, I turned and looked around the corner of the building sadly as Danny sat down at the table, I'm sure feeling dejected and hurt. I turned away anger flowing hot through my body, this was all PHANTOM'S fault. He was going to pay for this.
Phantom. You. Will. Pay.
