Hey, well this is my first Danny Phantom fic so I hope it's okay. It's a bit random, so random that it was drafted in a train station if you can believe lmao. But yeah,
Disclaimer…. Me no own Danny or any of the other characters or places etc etc, the only thing I own is the idea of the fic, bummer but yeah. So like don't sue me or anything heh.
This is my opinion of what happens after a particularly difficult fight with Danny and my other favourite character.
Hints of Danny and Sam but tis not serious.
Italics – thought.
Summery… Protection doesn't always have to come from the strongest person, because everyone needs protection. Even a hero.
Have a read and tell me what you think :D

Danny sighed and sat on the window seat in Sam's luxurious bedroom, still in his ghostly form. Sam watched the young halfa from where she was perched on her bed with growing concern twisting in her stomach. She watched as two bright silver rings formed at his waist and slowly moved up and down his body changing him, black and white jumpsuit to blue jeans and white shirt, silvery white hair to dark raven locks, emerald green eyes to deep cerulean blue. He was Danny Fenton again. And Danny Fenton looked as exhausted as his other half had.
He closed his dull blue eyes that were usually so alive with emotion and Sam couldn't help but frown. She looked on sadly not knowing what to do or say to comfort him after such a fight. Might as well go for the obvious…
"Danny, you okay?" He half opened his eyes and looked her way, smiling weakly he shook his head and Sam felt a wave of helplessness and worry wash over her. He was too weak to argue and be stubborn that is really not good.
She swallowed and stood from the bed walking to towards the window seat that her best friend had taken refuge on, never taking her eyes off the beaten halfa. What can I say?
She wanted so desperately to comfort him, to hold him and let no one else in, to kiss away his pain and tears, whisper sweet nothings as he questioned himself and who he was, tell him it was okay and that she would protect him from the harsh world when he was to weak to do so himself. She smiled, maybe he'll be to far gone to remember this anyway… trembling at her own daring she did something she never would have done otherwise.
Sam climbed onto the window seat sitting behind Danny. He tensed at first but didn't resist when she gently pulled him back to lean on her. His back against her front and the back of his head resting on her shoulder. He didn't have the strength to argue and pull away so he let himself sink deeper into sleep. He didn't protest when she wrapped her arms securely around his waist and pressed her cheek into his hair so she assumed it was okay and didn't let go herself. Not that she would want to anyway.
Danny felt the familiar butterflies in his stomach at her being so close but was too tired to care anymore, besides, he trusted her. Sam smiled down at him as his body relaxed and she warmed his own freezing body with her body heat. His hair smelled like cocoa as she breathed him in deeply.
She took in every detail of him that she didn't already know, how his hair felt against her cheek, what his back felt like pressed against her, his breathing pattern and the way his abdomen and chest felt him her safe arms. It's nice to play the protector sometimes.
Sam closed her eyes and savoured the moment, imprinting the feeling of having Daniel Fenton asleep in her arms into her mind forever. Usually he was the strong one but Sam cherished every moment she was able to help him. She frown sadly, he gave out so much love and hope but received so little in return.
Her amethyst eyes glazed over slightly from the immense feeling of warmth and love she had for Danny. He was her best friends although….she had hoped it would be morel. As she thought this her arms tightened around the teen. Danny doesn't deserve this. She thought this bitterly. He gave hope and protection to those he cared about and even people he didn't. He'd so willingly give his life for someone else's that it scared her sometimes.
He was selfless, he always had been ever since he was a child. Always everyone else first and Danny second, always…
She would help him though, she would keep him safe, she would defend the hero when he couldn't himself, she'd protect him like he protected everyone else. He deserved that much. Sam tightened her arm around his waist and with her free hand she gently traced his features. She ran her fingertips over his soft face with a feather light touch and not once did he stir.
His cheeks, warm and soft with faint dimples, he eyelids, the corners of his mouth, and his soft, warm lips that she'd give anything in the world to taste to just once. She sighed into his raven hair and kissed the top of his head lovingly, her kiss lingering so she could remember the feel of him, the taste of him, the smell of him if she never could again. To remember the feeling of him being here with her, defences down, letting and trusting her to keep him safe when he was weak.
She would, she'd promised every power on this earth no harm would come to Danny under her protection, and she'd do anything to keep it that way. Because she was the only one Danny allowed to do so. She would anyway though, even if he didn't let her, she'd promised her hear as much…and nobody wants one of those broken.
She leaned against the wall and looked out her window at the stars, I'll let him sleep, he needs it. She smiled and made a wish on the brightest star and as she felt Danny Fenton's gentle heartbeat beneath her fingertips she confessed in words what she'd never been able to say.
"I'll protect you Danny, I … I love you to much not to…."
