Chapter 3: Processing

Danny almost fainted. The nose of the bear, if translated to human parts, is Danny's mouth, his lips. Even though what Dash kissed was the bear, Danny still felt it. The jock's wet lips touched his. What's worse, in Danny's mind, is that it was his very first kiss. No, chill. Relax Fenton. You are not yourself. This is not real. Danny tried so hard to calm down.

When he did, he saw that he was a little bit far from Dash. He saw the blond's sleeping face and the way his body moved from his breathing. He started taking breaths, deep ones, as well. There is no way he could fall asleep in this state. Even his craziest dream would never beat the insanity of this. But he did fell into a dreamless sleep…for about two hours.

After a while, he woke up. His alarm clock was ringing annoyingly. He stretched, his body ached, and reached for the screaming alarm clock. Dammit. He cursed in his aching mind before sitting up. His eyes were closed until he felt himself shivering. He wrapped his arms around himself as he looked around. I had the craziest dream. He thought as he stared into space. After another while, his alarm clock began ringing again. It seems that it was on snooze mode; 5 minutes have passed. He reached for it again to stop it. Shit! I'm gonna be late!

He quickly stood up and went to his closet to find a new pair of clothes. When he began to take off his clothes, he noticed that…he wasn't wearing any. He was naked! He panicked for a bit, trying to think of a reason to explain why he was naked, but then, he realized he had exams today. He forgot every crazy thing.

Instead of taking a bus, he just turned himself into his ghost form and flew away into Casper High. He changed back behind a tree and ran inside the school. It was not like he was late or anything, his alarm clock rang at the right time. He just promised Sam and Tucker he would come to school earlier so that they could study together—after all, failing the exam means that you won't get to join the awesome week long field trip.

"You're late!" Sam yelled at him when he reached the classroom, panting. "S-sorry. I forgot to set the alarm earlier than usual." Danny replied. Tucker walked closer to him and stared at his face. "... Or, you're just up all night playing… well, who knows what." He said as he eyed Danny suspiciously, which made the ghost boy's face redden. "I-I'm not doing anything like tha—" He stopped as he remembered what really happened. "Oh… so you really did some things." Tucker teased. "No!" Danny frowned as he took a deep breath. No way that it's true.

The three started studying anyways, however, three-fourths of the time, they were just goofing around. An hour later, the school bell rang and students started swarming the school. "Well, good luck guys. This is it." Sam said. "Well, technically, we have two more exams after this…so, this is partially it." Tucker replied and Sam just rolled her eyes. And again, Danny, at least for now, forgot about everything that's crazy.

After three hours, the exam was done. It would have been wonderful if school hours were also done after the exams…but unfortunately, class continues. So the three friends headed to their classroom after taking a short break to listen to the teacher's mumblings about the next exam.

However, bit by bit, while Danny tried hard to absorb the lecture, the memories from the previous night came back. He stared at the blank page in his notebook. Dammit. He ruffled his hair in frustration while he started panicking again. Calm down, Fenton. He tried to breathe in deep. Let's try to put things in simple terms…so that it wouldn't look as crazy. Danny thought and started scribbling on the blank page.

1. Some crazy ghost casted a spell or curse on me.

2. Dash has a teddy bear he calls 'Danny'.

3. I turn into that teddy bear.

4. Dash is in-love with me.

5. He uses the bear as his diary to show and tell that (no. 4).

6. He has a huge cock—and hot abs. (Fact)

7. He sleeps naked.

Danny stared at the page weirdly. Now that I've put everything in simple terms, I conclude: I'm crazy. He ruffled his hair again before he erased the last two items on the list. Meanwhile, Sam and Tucker just stared at him.

Some time passed and the school bell rang, a signal for dismissal. Before Danny could stand up from his desk, Sam and Tucker cornered him. "You're not going anywhere… until you tell us what's happening with you." Sam said as she put her hand on her waist. Danny just raised an eyebrow at them. "What are you talking about?" he said. Fortunately for the two, Danny's notebook was still open at the page where the list is. Tucker saw it and stole the notebook away immediately. "Well, you've been scratching your head for about a hundred times during class. What? Is there some kind of ghost flea—or could be a regular flea—on your head?" Sam sounded like she was nagging, but she was actually just worried. "Uh—Sam. I think I know what the problem is." Tucker said after he read the list.

Sam was talking to Danny hadn't realized Tucker took the notebook. When he did, he was already too late. "H-hey! Give it back!" Danny said as he tried to get the notebook back, thankful that he managed to erase the last two items on the list. While so, Tucker already briefed Sam of the list's contents. "Oh." Was all Sam could say. Danny hugged the notebook very tightly with an embarrassed red face. "Well, now you know." He muttered.

Sam and Tucker were quiet for a moment before having a mini-private meeting. After a while, they faced Danny again. "So… what is this about?" Tucker asked. "It is what it is. I was cursed." Danny replied in a defensive tone. "Well, I won't wonder why a ghost would curse you… but Dash? And love? And you? I don't think those three words go together in one sentence." Tucker said. Danny agreed. Seeing that his two friends were still confused, Danny tried to tell the story from the beginning.

"Are you sure you're not dreaming?" Sam asked. "Well, no. But this is just soo… creepy? I don't know. I don't know a term for this crazy… thing. Dream or not, this is too much for me." Danny replied. "This seems fun. Anyways, Dash is not making any lovey dovey move on you so I guess we have nothing to worry about, right?" Tucker said. "Yeah. Maybe everything is just a dream. Come on, let's go." Sam added before heading to the door. Danny sighed and sulked in his chair. "Oh, stop being such a baby. Let's go." Sam said as she and Tucker pulled Danny up and pushed him out of the door. And at that moment, he bumped into a certain someone.
