Casper high
"No way Sam you are actually going out with Kwan?" Danny said in an astonished tone.
"But I thought he was going out with Star." Tucker went on causing Sam to speak up.
"I did as well, however he told me the two of them split and decided to be stay friends. Then out of nowhere at the Nasty burger yesterday he confessed his feelings to me." Sam explained surprising her friends.
"Come on now Sam, Kwan? Dash's best friend wants to…"
"Tucker don't finish that sentence. I made that mistake once, and I don't want you making that same mistake." Danny said remembering the Elliot incident well. "But at the same time though I am also concerned Sam. We don't know much about Kwan except he likes to hang out with Dash and bully us." Danny brought up causing Sam to bring up a familiar quote.
"Danny remember what you told me when you were dating Valerie? Well you should give him a chance. Kwan is really nice when you get to know him. Besides if you heard the confession he gave me yesterday…"
"You did what? Why are you dating that loser Goth geek?" Dash screamed in front of everyone cutting off Sam while striking a nerve with both Kwan and Danny.
"Sam is not a loser Goth geek!" Kwan said standing up not only for himself but for Sam.
"She is too a loser Goth geek! If she wasn't a loser she would be in the A-lists and one of us! The only two friends she has are Fentonio and Foley!" Dash shouted back striking another nerve with Kwan.
"For you information if Sam wanted to be in the A-lists she could. If you bothered to any research on the Manson family you would know that she is the child of the richest family in town!" Kwan said shocking everyone.
"Great so he is going after you for your money. I knew it." Tucker said causing Sam to frown.
"Tucker let's let Kwan finish before we jump to that conclusion." Danny said surprisingly both Sam and Tucker at Danny's words.
"That is right she comes from a family that was way richer than Paulina's. However, she chooses to stay with Danny and Tucker because they accept her for who she is AKA her real friends. Believe it or not that is something I admire about her!" Kwan said shocking Dash while causing Tucker to breathe easy.
"That makes her even more of a loser since she willingly stays at the bottom when she could be at the top with us! Lord knows with all her hair brain schemes the popularity would help her get them in!" Dash countered causing Kwan to speak up.
"Well if I remember correctly Dash if someone is dating an A-list they are officially a cool kid. Since I am an A-list and Sam is my girl that makes her one as well!" Kwan went on causing Paulina to speak up.
"There is no way in hell we are allowing that Goth geek into the A-lists! Even if she is as rich as you say! In fact Kwan you have two choices. You can either dump her in the most humiliating of ways to redeem yourself, or you can kiss your spot in the A-lists along with all your friends here good-bye!" Paulina said causing Kwan to gasp in shock.
"You don't mean that do you? Dash you wouldn't truly abandon me just like that would you?" Kwan asked causing Dash to speak up.
"If you continue to date that Goth geek then that is what will happen. You know what you have to do if you want to stay an A-list." Dash said causing Kwan to sigh.
"Here it comes Sam he is going to humiliate you right here to keep his spot in the A-lists." Tucker said predicting that would happen.
"Tucker lets wait until Kwan makes his decision instead of jumping to premature conclusions." Danny said slightly annoyed that Tucker was doing this.
"Well since you put it that way the answer is quite obvious. Sam would you like to go with me to that new all you can eat veggie buffet tonight my treat." Kwan said surprising not only the A-lists but everyone in the school other than Danny and Sam.
"I would love to Kwan but it will be my treat. This is not the dark ages where the man has to treat the woman." Sam said smiling at Kwan while the A-lists had their mouths hanging open.
"Kwan you can't be serious? You are choosing this Goth Geek over us your friends?" Dash said causing Kwan to speak up.
"Some friends you are! If you were truly my friends you wouldn't have cared if I was dating Sam or not. You would have accepted her because she was my girlfriend!" Kwan said without fear.
"You are making a big mistake Kwan what about Star? Unlike that Goth Geek, she is pretty, popular, and acceptable unlike that Geek who has the fashion sense of a dead horse!" Paulina countered.
"You care to know why me and Star broke up? It was because Sam Manson was on my mind the entire time I was with her. I told Star how I felt and we broke up on good terms even though she was upset about it at first. The only reason I originally didn't make a move was because I knew she liked Fenton. However, when we got (1) 'that project' together and I couldn't hold back my feelings anymore, and confessed and guess what? I regret nothing!" Kwan said staring down Dash.
At this point Dash was furious. However, instead of taking it out on Kwan he went to his favorite punching bag and glare at him.
"This is all your fault Fenton! If you weren't so dense, and saw that Goth geek's feelings you would be with her instead of Kwan! Now I am going to beat you up every day until he dumps her!" Dash said as he threw a strong punch only for Danny to duck under it and counter with a knee to the gut effectively taking the wind out of Dash.
The entire hallway gasped in shock as Dash was now on his knees gasping for air while Danny looked down at him with disgust.
'Danny why won't you listen to me when I tell you not to fight back against them. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do something.' Sam thought to herself before Danny spoke up.
"Attacking someone you think is weaker than you just because your best friend is dating someone you don't approve of… pathetic." Danny said with the same disgust.
"Consider yourself out of the A-lists forever Kwan! You will never be one of us ever again!" Paulina said as the rest of the jocks went over and took their fallen comrade away.
"Guess what Paulina, If I had to do it all over again I would. Sam is totally worth it!" Kwan said without a second thought earning a smile from Sam only for Mr. Lancer to come into view.
"Mr. Fenton care to explain to me why you attacked Mr. Baxter like that?" Mr. Lancer said causing Danny to frown.
"Mr. Lancer I didn't attack Dash. Last I checked that only applies if you throw the first punch. Besides Dash started it by throwing…"
"5 touchdown passes there by is immune for being reprimanded you however, aren't." Mr. Lancer said causing Dash who was still in pain to smirk at Danny with a 'even when I lose I still win.' smirk. "Mr. Fenton I will see you in detention today." Mr. Lancer said causing Danny to frown.
"Great just great, now my plans for the day are ruined." Danny said sourly.
"You should have thought about your plans when you attacked Mr. Baxter Mr. Fenton." Mr. Lancer said as he walked away only to strike a nerve with Danny.
"Dude calm down you know how it is in this school." Tucker said trying to calm down Danny.
"He is right Fenton, in this school when you are part of the A-list and popular crowd no matter what you are immune to punishment." Kwan said knowing how everything works.
"Which you willingly gave up for our friend Sam along with being popular. To do something like that you must really like Sam. Sorry I doubted you dude." Tucker said in a genuine tone.
"The pros far outweigh the cons. I only really did those things to fit in with Dash and the other popular kids. Otherwise I wouldn't bother doing it which means I don't need immunity from punishment. Plus even if me and Sam were to break up I would still have her as a real friend." Kwan said while pulling in Sam, Tucker, and Danny into a tight hug.
"Kwan could… you please… let go… we need air." Sam said causing Kwan to let go of her.
"Sorry Sam I just got overly excited. By the way Danny you don't mind if I call you that now?" Kwan asked getting a no (AN: meaning he doesn't mind) for an answer. "What plans did you have that detention would ruin?" Kwan asked causing Sam and Tucker to join in as well.
Danny was about to answer his question when he heard the warning bell rang and Mr. Faluuka speak up.
"You heard that warning bell if you don't get to class in the next 5 minutes you will all have detention." Mr. Faluuka said causing Sam, and Tucker to walk one way while Danny and Kwan walked another.
"Sam you do realize that you are now keeping a big secret from your boyfriend right? While we did have that battle with Ember and Youngblood together, he never seen you fight ghosts, or knows that we know who Danny Phantom really is." Tucker explained causing Sam to frown.
"That is Danny's secret not mine. As for me fighting ghosts, I will talk with him about that, and let him know that is something I won't be giving up. If he can't accept that it is his problem." Sam said as she and Tucker both walked to math class.
Boy's locker room 5 minutes later
"Danny since we have time now tell me what plans did you have after school today that were ruined?" Kwan asked causing Danny to do something he never thought he would do.
"Before I answer your question know this. If you hurt Sam in anyway I…"
"Chill out Danny, I have no intention of doing anything to hurt Sam. She accepts me for who I am, and that is another of the reasons why I like her. If I did do anything to hurt her I give you permission get me the same treatment you did Dash." Kwan said surprising Danny.
"Good now that we got that out-of-the-way, before I tell you I have to ask can I trust you not to tell Sam and Tucker before I tell them myself?" Danny asked getting a nod from Kwan.
"Sam isn't the only person who is seeing someone. I met this amazing psychologist about 6 months ago. She was down in the dumps over a really bad relationship, and I don't know what convinced me to do so, but I started talking with her to cheer her up. To my surprise I was actually successful in doing so, and by the time she felt better she told me she wanted to talk with me again. We kept talking for about 2 months, and the more we talked the more we found out we liked each other. Eventually she told me she wanted to become official with me, and I told her yes." Danny said causing Kwan to frown.
"While that is nice Danny you know you shouldn't be keeping secrets from your friends especially Sam. You of all people should know how she can get with stuff like this, and you are taking a huge risk here by doing this." Kwan explained causing Danny to sigh.
"I know, but she made me promise to keep everything a secret until she was ready to talk. I know it is bad, but she finally agreed today to meet my friends. That is why I am so pissed off about what just happened." Danny explained. "Sam would understand since when it comes to promises she as adamant that promises are kept." Danny continued.
"Is she the reason you have fought back as of late as well as you not putting your foot in your mouth? I have noticed this, and the main reason the A-lists Jocks kept picking on you was because of the immunity they get from the staff." Kwan asked causing Danny to nod.
"When I told her about what was going on in school she was furious to find out this. She in her own way told me to defend myself against those idiots and you know what? I don't regret doing so." Danny said with pride. "As for the last part yeah. She noticed that I was doing this and she helped me with her own special remedy." Danny explained with a smile.
"But if you could do that from the start why didn't you?" Kwan asked causing Danny to sigh.
"Sam always told me never to fight back against those idiots even though we both knew that I am damned if I do, and I am damned if I don't." Danny said annoyed.
"Sam of course isn't happy with me fighting back but she isn't the one getting this treatment." Danny explained just before he finished putting on his clothes. "Let's get out of here before we get in trouble, and remember what I told you if you hurt my best friend." Danny said causing Kwan to nod.
Stage out
1 A reference to my story underneath the mistletoe. Sam and Kwan were partnered up in that story and Kwan confessed his feelings for Sam in that one. Only difference being that Sam rejected Kwan in the hopes of getting with Danny.
