A/n: okay you guys welcome back to ghostly music, this is chapter 9, wow like that is fricken crazy I cant believe its chaptere 9 already, its like the journey as barely begun but yet its in the action. I'm actually really proud of myself you guys because, I' not rushing Danny and Sam's relationship , well under my standards I normally have them go a bit too fast, anyway, well the last chapter was Thursday so we all know what day comes after that.

Also do not think that Paul will come in between Danny and Sam, because she won't, she does love Danny, but in loving him she knows she'd not the one he wants, so she has a secret one sided relationship in her head with him, and she knows it's unrequited (meaning her doesn't not feel the , and as long as he'll be in her life, and as long as he's happy she is okay with that.

Anyway, we know a bit more about Paul now, but soon we'll get a flash back of how the foursome of ham skillet Danny and Paul began and what they did in their spare time, so yeah. We'll some of that; we'll get some more of tucker and jazz's progression.

Then were defiantly gonna have more socials, going on and more vlad, and everything so we have a big journey ahead of us, there might be some jack and Maddie, maybe in a flashback, or a visit, we'll see then we'll most likely get some of Sam's past as well.

By the way the quote I choose for danny I like his musings not like anything he's saying to anyone. And jazz's is more of what someone wise would say to her, if she asked them for advice.

So how about we get this party started huh


Quotes:

For danny:

"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable."
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

For sam to danny:

I'm not sure if this is really Happening. I get so confused by this wall that is blocking me from seeing through to his true self. Is he a player, am I just another notch on his belt? Or could it be true, he's falling for me?

~ ember toton

For Paul to Danny

The hardest thing is telling someone you love, that you like them.

~lex luthor;smallville

Tucker to jazz:

Take of all the joy you'll find, when you leave the world behind.

~peter pan

For jazz:

"We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think. Think. Think. You can never trust the human mind anyway. It's a death trap."
Anthony Hopkins


Chapter 9: regrets and progressions


Over looker's pov

The sun had risen, at 6:00 am that Friday morning, and there asleep in there in there bed, was a raven haired couple all crunched up in a cheap twin bed, but they were sleep. Yes Danny Fenton had actually slept, not by much but he did, after a night of thinking, and twisting and turning pretending to pour his heart out to her, although he knew she was fast asleep, but somehow by some twist of fate, a 5:00 only an hour prior the boy had drifted on into a sleep.

A sleep that he had not had since, before the robbery, it shocked him it truly did. He had actually had a sleep where hope seemed to shine, and there was a light in that dream, instead of the darkness that haunted him. It was like having her there, brought light into his dark soul, and he liked it.

The evil sun crept through, the blinds hitting Sam's face in just the right, direction to wake, her a few curses and grumbles latter the girl opened her eyes. Noticing an arm around her the girl jumped, letting out a huge scream, and falling out of the small twin, abruptly waking both her roommate, and her would be boyfriend.

"fuck" the boy screamed sitting up, in shock and taking in his surroundings, a confused look fell on his face, upon looking at his surroundings. Soon the prior night came flashing back to him, he couldn't believe he had done that, shaking the thoughts of of his head, the boy crawled out of the bed, extending a hand to his fallen would be girlfriend which the amethyst eyes girl gladly took.

"I'm so sorry, I've never, errr uh slept, with another person before." The girl said lamely a blush falling across her face, as she silently cursed herself for being 'so stupid' in her opinion. "ohhh Sammy you bad bad girl, tell me this, and only this was he good." the pair had almost forgot the other female was in the room,until she made her presence known in the most uncouth way.

Wiping the sleep out of her eye, and yawning the girl let the statement sink in, and when it did she was pissed. Shooting up from her spot on the bed, which she had took after the boy before her had helped her up, the girl briskly walked over to where crystal sat, and pulled her up by the low cut cotton night gown she wore.

"Don't you dare start, turning any rumor mills, of shit you don't know about!" the girl screamed momentarily, forgetting the boy was there, of course she honestly didn't care if he saw, it was no secret the girl had a no tolerance for bull shit, or in laments terms a serious temper. A wide smirk grew upon, crystals, face as she feigned fear further angering her makeshift sister.

"Oh Sammy come, on were sisters we can talk about this kind of thing." The girl said profusely smirking, knowing nothing had happened the night before, but she just couldn't help fucking with Sam, and it was too much fun. After letting that statement sink in as well (it was early morning mind you), the Goth girl through her pretend sister back down on her bed.

"Nothing happened, now if you want to hear about a night of senseless fucking you should look through your memories." The girl seethed, her eyes lightening a bit, as she let her lips curve into a smirk. At this point Danny decided to step in fearing he would get in trouble later if he did, (or at least that was what he told himself, the boy wasn't quite ready to admit that he didn't like that assumption about sam.)

"Look crystal we talked, and fell asleep that was it, nothing happened, besides were not even together." The boy said that last part with deep sorrow although he tried to mask it. At that remark Sam was happy at the first part, him defended her virtue, but the smile that had adorned her features once before, went straight to hell, after hearing the last part. 'Not together, what fuck does that mean', the girl thought.

Crystal now having had her fun, retreated to the bathroom, to do her morning regiments leaving the pair alone, with the tension thick in the room. "Are you alright?" the boy asked upon, seeing that her anger had not ceased when the other girl left the room.

"no, honestly I'm not Danny, what the hell, do you mean 'not together'?" the girl said, she just assumed since they made out rather often, that maybe they were dating. Now the boy was rather confused, and he wasn't about to leave that unsaid.

"So, maybe I'm wrong but last time I checked we weren't together." The boy said, and the statement stung his heart, like acid on an open wound. Upon realizing this was a serious situation, the man sat down on the bed. Taking a sigh, and pinching the bridge of her nose the girl sat, down on her makeshift sister's bed, pondering what to say to that.

"on Monday you told me to give you a chance, and to be honest I lied, when I said I wasn't interested or, that I didn't like you cause I did, I do. I do like you a lot. I was just… well know this, I would never admit this, to anyone, not even tucker, I was scared, I was scared that I would let you in, and get to know you and like you, and care for you, and then you'd hurt me. I couldn't take that, I really couldn't.

You see, when I said I dated you before, I uh dated a guy named joey burg, and I cared for him, a lot and he hurt me. So to not get hurt again, I put up this wall, and I wouldn't let anyone in it, and it's still up, know that, it truly is, but I'm letting you inside it, because I want you in my life, despite your reputation despite everything, I want you in my life, so yes I will go out with you." The woman said taking a breath she didn't know she was hold, she sat there nervously waiting for her blue eyed companion to reply, she was the most nervous she'd ever been, she'd just bared her soul to him, more than she ever had, to anyone.

It was silence, complete and utter silence, Danny stood there in shock, in utter shock at the girl before him, he couldn't believe a girl like her an angel, as he would call her, would want him, and he simply couldn't believe it. He was sure he'd cherish this week with her, because at the end she'd reject him, but instead she through him a curve ball, she accepted him, despite everything.

Not that she knew, truly everything, like that he was phantom, or that he used to make bets with Paul on who's pants he could get into, extra points for breaking hymens, or the drugs, or anything really, all she knew was that he had had sex, a lot of sex, but that all she knew, still that was start.

Seeing silence had rejection, the opened her mouth to speak, but could not she turned her face to hide the tears that were streaming down them. Upon seeing this the boy jumped off his bed, and walked briskly over to her, and turned her head towards, him wiping her tears.

"Sam, you don't know how much I wanted you to say that, you don't know how much I needed you to say that. The first time I saw you, I thought you were a dream, my dream…"


(a/n: okay so finally we have a song this is when I first saw you from the movie dreamgirls sung by Jamie foxx, I do not own obviously)


The boy lowered himself down to his knees has he took, the girls petite hands in his own brute ones, and looked into her eyes, as he begun to sing.

"When I first saw you, I said "Oh my"
I said "oh my, that's a dream, that's my dream"
I needed a dream when it all seemed to go bad
Then I found you and I have had the most beautiful dreams
Any man's ever had

When I first saw you, I said "oh my
Oh my, that's my dream, that's my dream"
I needed a dream to make me strong
You are the only reason I had to go on

You are my dream, all the things I'll never knew
You are my dream who could believe they could ever come true
And who would believe, the world would believe in my dreams too

When I first saw you, I said "oh my
Oh my, that's my dream."" The boy finished as he got up and sat beside her. Still holding her hands. It was at that moment Danny could no longer deny it, he had fallen in love, and he knew it. "So does this mean were boyfriend and girlfriend" the girl said smiling her heart, beating faster than it ever had in her life. This was her dream, this was her dream that she had always dreamt, and finally he was hers.

"There's a first time for everything" the boy said simply before leaning in to kiss, his new girlfriend.


Over looker's pov

Jazz Fenton stood, there in shock, her mouth opened, wide and her eyes the size of dinner plates, the girl only closed her mouth and eyes, when the ferocious wind being made by the helicopter, got inside her mouth and eyes.

The girl began ferociously blinking, as if she were having some kind of dream, or illlusionation. "Is that a…" the girl trailed, off looking in shock at the boy beside, her as she watched the helicopter land, on the street in front of them. "Yeah it's a helicopter." The boy said with a smirk still applied to his lips, he grabbed her arm softly, and began to pull her toward, the parked helicopter.

"Are you ready for the ride of your life?" The boy said has he started, running while holding on to the girls arm for dear life, bidding her to run as well, and she did. They pair ran towards, the helicopter excitedly like children. It had been quite a while since; the girl had felt this way.

It was like she had been and adult her whole life, always taking care if her brother and always trying to, understand her Parents. She was always working hard, always trying to be perfect, always trying to be an adult.

The girl never really had friends, and it was at this moment she realized why she thought tucker could be someone she could fall in love with. Even though the girl never really believed, love was more than a chemical reaction. But yet here was a boy making her rethink everything.

Yes as the redheaded self-proclaimed genius, ran like a child in a park towards, that rumbling helicopter, feeling like she never had, she was rethinking everything. She thought about the life, and friends she never had, and all the times she chastised Danny for being a child. She thought about all the dates and friend invitations, the girl turned down in the name of studying.

But most of the entire girl wondering why, in the name of all things good, her heart seemed to beat faster, around a certain beret wearing techno geek. Shaking the thoughts from her head, for the time being the girl took the extended hand of the boy before her, upon noticing he had already boarding the air craft, and was attempting to get her on. The girl gladly allowed herself to be helped on the helicopter, and felt her heart beat even faster as the door closed behind her and the pair were lifted into the air.

"How the hell, did you manage this" the girl said taking a seat on one if the many seats, inside the heavy machinery. Letting her eyes scan through the inside, it seemed the girl wanted to know even more. The interior looked rich, very rich. The floors of the vehicle shined in fine granite, and the windows were made of what could only be pure crystals, and the square shape of them was outlined in gold. The curtains were drawn, and the girl realized that they were made if pure velvet.

Someone spared no expense for such and interior, the girl was. Sure of it. She had heard through the grapevine that tucker was a scholarship kid, like her so how had he managed this. "my uncle's a pilot for a man named Kenneth Carrington, one of the united states most powerful business man, he stands about right next to vlad masters, although from what I've heard the two hate each other's guts."

The said, as the girl looked at him with intrigue, until she heard the name vlad masters. She was one of the few people who knew of vlad's wrongdoings to society although not even Danny knew the full extent of the man's depravity. "You know vlad master's"

the girl said, surely hoping he didn't have such a displeasure. With a rising of an eyebrow at the girl before him's, obvious hatred for the man. "I know of him, but I don't even know mister Carrington, I owe my uncle an arm and a leg for this ride..." the boy began but trailed off, as he released what he had just said, he didn't want jazz to know that he cared for her a lot, just this soon.

The boy bent his head down to have his blush. "You um, didn't have to do all of this for Me." the girl said turning her head, to the side to blush as well. "It's no big deal, really... Hey look" the boy said changing from the subject that making the both of em change color, the girl looked up to where her date was pointing as she at the world from above.

There were very little clouds out that day, and the view was clear and calming. The windows were lack of even the tiniest spot on their surface. Jazz couldn't believe it, this was the way her brother saw the world all the time, it was beautiful.

A mahogany table sat in-between the two teens separating them from each other's touch. For a moment time stopped when, blue green meant blue green, and they each saw something there that fascinated them. Jazz didn't know what she was doing, it was as if her actions were not her own, like she was somehow possessed. The girl got up slowly her footfall gentle and graceful, she knew her destination.

She wanted nothing separating her and the boy in front of her; she wanted to be at his side. Gently sitting down beside the boy, the girl rested her head on his chest listening to his heartbeat. For a while silence took over, and neither of them minded, neither of them broke it. "How do you do it" the girl whispered the melody of his heartbeat soothed her, she couldn't remember the last time she was soothed.

Without moving, the boy just looked down at the girl leaning on him, "do what" the boy said wrapping his arm around her slim frame. "Stay in neverland, I left there a long time ago..." the said trailing off, as she buried her chest more into him.

A gasp left his lips once he realized what she meant, truly he didn't know he just thought it seemed right, to be happy most of the time. It seemed normal to be always joking and being care free, it was weird though he never thought about it. It took a while before he chooses an answer. "I guess the same reason you chose to leave" the boy replied.

This sprung a string if thoughts fir the young girl, why did she choose to leave when no one asked her to, why did she skip right over her childhood, it seemed she never thought It, just as he never thought about. Maybe they had more in common than they thought. "You've never thought about it, have you." the girl said after another ling silence.

"Nope" the boy replied, and just like that the atmosphere around him changed. - Childish grin broke out upon his face 'oh no' the girl though. "So if you had one super power. What would it be and why" the boy said shocking jazz, 'what kind of question is that' though the braniac.

"Are you serious" the girl said with laughter about in her voice, as the boys smile grew wider? He motioned for her to stands up, so he could get out of the booth. He walked over to a bag with something inside; the girl knew not what it was, until he turned around and held to things up.

Jazz's draw dropped in complete and utter shock, the boy was holding to pairs if footsy pajama's one pair pink and the other blue. "Today, jasmine Fenton you are gonna have the childhood you missed out on. The boy said as the girl became woozy and fainted, guilt swing through the heart if tucker Foley as he rushed to check on jazz.

Sitting in an old rocking chair in, the old rusty cabin Paulette Reynolds sighed. It was weird she knew he was gone, and ham and skillet were dead, but it wasn't until this moment sitting in that chair she lost everything. She lost familiarity of her home she had lived in, for so many years. The girl looked hastily around the room, her paranoia getting her a bit.

Sighing once more the girl closed her eyes, trying to imagine happier times. Times with Danny, just hanging out, having heart to hearts, getting high, getting wasting going on shoplifting spree's just to see if they could get away with it.

All the crazy things they did, that would be in both their memories forever, but it seemed what stuck in her mind more, was the things they didn't do. They never made love, they fucked but never made love, they never dated, they never said that they were in love with each other; they never did all the things Paul truly wanted to do.

It hurt, it stung really, that he'd never love her; he'd never be in love with her, like she was with him. He'd always be her friend, and he'd always care for her, in one way or another, but he'd never fall in love with her. She knew that, she always did even from the very beginning, but yet she still fell for him, she still stuck by, him she still got pregnant (even though that part was accidental), but she didn't abort, she refused to.

She could never give up the opportunity, to have a little part of Danny inside her. Shaking these thoughts from her head, the girl let out a few more tears, she couldn't think about that right now, right now just knowing danny, just being his friend, just carring his child, for the sevral months was going to have to be enough.

It had to be…


(a/n: okay so this next song is on my own from les miserables, I think it really fits Paul, obviously I do not own, I hope you enjoy. Also when you see bold, that means it's a memory Paul is seeing has, she sings and if it's italics that means it's a hallucination that Paul is pretending is happening)


"And now I'm all alone again
Nowhere to turn, no one to go to" the girl sung her lips, flowing gracefully as her soft voice, filled the room although no one was around to hear it…

A 14 year old Danny and Paul lay silently in Danny's twin bed, it had been there first time, and they'd ever been together. The girl had thought it would take years, before she'd even want to do this, but yet there she was, completely glowing in the afterglow of being with Danny.

The girls head was laid upon, his chest listening to the song of his heartbeat. "Was that as good for you, as it was for me?" The girl said in a hushed tone, as she begun tracing circles, in the man's chest.

"I was good" the boy said his voice, laced with surprise his eyes alight. The girl let her lips, curve into a smile, the first real smile the girl had, had since she had been there. "no…you were the best I've ever had."

"Without a home, without a friend,
Without a face to say hello to.
And now the night is near
Now I can make believe he's here" the girl sung once again, softly the melody becoming louder, as she began to pretend.

She needed to, that was what was going to keep her sain, in the dark days she knew would follow, though it'd never truly be real, she needed to pretend it was. "Hey Paul" the raven haired boy, said has he walked toward her. The blue haired girl lifted herself from her chair, running to his arms. There he lifted up and spined her around.

Sitting her gently on her feet, the girls smile was beaming and the boy, had and identical one on his face. "You came back" the girl said her smile widening even more, as tears of joy streamed down her face. The boy got on his knee's pulling her shirt, up a bit wear he could see her, not stretched stomach.

Then and there he placed a gentle kiss on it, giving his love to both her and the baby." Of course I did paul, fuck my famies debt, fuck everything, I just want you."

Tears of reality floated down the girls face, and they stung, but she could listen to reality that was for when the sun was shining, and there was no darkness, to hide the truth behind, but now the stars were out and she could believe anything was possible.

As the girl listened to the pitter patter, of the skies droplets that beated heavily on the roof, of the cabin the girl wanted to cry even harded, but instead she closed her eyes, once again. "Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy" a ghost of a smile lit upon the girls face, as she remembered the times she shared.

The two stoned teens lay on their backs on Paul's queen side bed, looking up at the ceiling. Both of them held joints in their right hands, as they simultaneously blowing smoke out of their mouths, polluting the air around them.

"What if, people are cats, and cats are like people." The blue haired girl said, her voice a bit slurred from the jack Daniel that they had drunk prior to the pot they were currently smoking. "How do we know, that we aren't cats, and that cats aren't people."

The boy answered back, his face showing the kind of boyish curiosity a child would show. "And what if, like the government knows, that we are cats and not human's, and there not telling us." The girl answered back, feeding in to their stoned curiosity.

Taking another puff of her, joint and blowing it out into the air, as her friend proceeded to do the same. "Phantom, we just discovered a government, conspiracy you know how much cash we could get for this." The girl said using her friends, nickname, and all of a sudden literally out of the blue, the boy just broke out into full on splitting side's laughter.

Not even knowing what he was, laughing about and not feeling the need to the girl also fell into laughter. Upon stopping the laughter and taking, another puff of her joint, the said "like what the fuck is so funny." The girl said with still some, after effects of the laughter.

"How do we know, that cats isn't spelled with a k…" the boy said before he broke out into laughter once more.

More tears came, down at that memory, standing up the girl went, through her purse, and found one of her favorite pictures, in her wallet. It was a picture of Danny, on the day they met, it was after she had seduced him, and after syncing his request, to be the type of boy no one would want to mess, with the girl asked him if she wanted her to corrupt him.

Naturally she said yes, so taking out a Polaroid, she had stolen from the school the girl took a "before" picture of him, although it was really just an excuse to have a picture of him. It was the Danny she knew, he still was inside the Danny that regretted changing.

His blue eyes, ablaze with boyish charm, and curiosity his hair a bit messier than usual, but still giving off innocence, he was sexy abet nerdy, but sexy none the less, and she had changed seemed like that fact was on her mind more, than anything these days.

She quickly shook her head, once more, if she continued on this path she'd surely kill her, self before crystal even got the chance. She needed to think about the good times and only that, though that was easier said than done.

"With the company I'm keeping
the city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head." The girl smiled fondly by just looking at the picture, closing her eyes, once again the girl began to pretend once more. Fishing through his pocket, the soaking wet boy on his knees, fished of a small square box.

Paul's face lifted in shock, although she could believe this was real. "Paulette Susan Reynolds, I want to spend the rest of my life with you, and the baby, will you mar-" the boy began but before he could even finish he felt himself being pulled up by the collar, and then kissed.

Once oxygen kicked, in the girl became excited, the smiles on her face refusing to leave, "yes, yes a million times yes." The girl screamed, before kissing the boy once more.

Rocking a bit harder, in the rocking chair the girl tried to control her breathing, from the last fantasy. Her breathing was frantic, she was frantic, and how was she to stay sane. It a strange way these, fantasies were, both stabilizing her and pushing her towards insanity.

She knew that, this sort of thing, was the type of thing that drove, woman to the point of fatal, attractions, or Jodi arias, but she didn't, care she wasn't, gonna give up her "moments with Danny" for anything, she refused to. "On my own
Pretending he's beside me" came once again the angelic voice, that flew from the girls lips, the only sound that were to be hears, was that voice and the weeping drops of the rain.

"Danny can I tell you something." The girl said as she turned on her side, so she could face, her friend with benefits, although she wished they were more. For a moment Danny said nothing, as he got up off the bed, and put his boxers.

The girl began to scowl at the boys actions, but before she could say anything, a black shirt that said, simple plan on it was thrown at her. Now the girl was less, mad and more confused. "Put that on, if you want to have a serious conversation, you got to cover, you jugs, or I'm just gonna tune you out, and fuck you instead."

The boy said without even, turning toward the girl who was a bit offended, by the comment but didn't, show it she had built up stamina to those types, of things, while being trafficked. It had been two months, since the girl had arrived in amity, and she still hadn't, told Danny who she was and her real agenda.

But it seemingly had changed, because now they actually were friends, and she didn't have to pretend anymore. By this time, she had completely changed, Danny although she would, everything now and then sees flashes of the real him, but they were becoming rare, and soon they would be gone all together.

Doing as asked putting on the shirt, she laid back down only to see, Danny lay back down as well, ready for their conversation. "Okay, so what's the huge thing?" The boy said rather rudely, he could tell by her tone, that it was serious shit. "I… well I, please listen to the whole story before you judge me…"

The girl began, as the boy nodded but still said nothing. "Well for starters, my real name is Paulette Susan Reynolds" the girl said looking to the guy for conformations to continue on, he showed no emotion. She continued anyway.

"my parents, know something about me that I don't know, and so they sent me to this boarding school, because they didn't want me to embarrass them, in front of their friends. Whatever I have, it's not normal, not human actually…"

Now she had the boy's attention, he understood why she had lied, now his face, that was cold a moment before lightened up quickly, saying nothing, the boy nodded once more, bidding her to go on.

"…so when I got there I met this guy, he was great and I had loved him, or so I thought, I was wrong, he wasn't great and I didn't love him. I was twelve then, I remember one night, we were getting a ride, from a so called friend of his who kicked, us out of the in the middle, of nowhere. There was an alley way there."

The girl said pausing, she turned her face to the side unable to stop the tears, from falling as that night passed through, her head just has it had a million times before. When Danny realized, she was crying he flipped her over and pulled her close, as he silently bided her to continue, no matter how selfish it sounded, he felt he needed to know the end, of the story at any expense. With a shaky voice and sobs, the girl continued.

"We walked into the alley way, and everything changed, it was as if wasn't the same person, but in truth it was, it was his true colors that were showing. He pushed me against, the brick and he started to-"the girl trailed off, it was very obvious what he did after that, and once again the girl broke into sobs.

Once again the girl calmed herself, down and began to finish her tale. "I cried, after he had done it, I felt so worthless, I felt like I was a disgrace, a terrible person, and I was just a kid, I was 12. I made myself numb, and pretended not to care. Of should have fought, I did, I fought him, I tried to but, he was, to strong. 5 other, mean came and they all took their turn on me, and then they left me so sore, I couldn't even walk, I felt something hit my head…"

The girl let a few more tears, slip down her face, as she shook her head, and refused to break, she needed to finish, the story. "…I woke up in some house that would become my prison. They had men come in there, and have their way with me, over and over, and if I tried to fight, they'd beat me. They took everything away from me, for two years. Two months ago, he came back, and all I remember, was him greeting me, and next thing I know I'm free, 12 hours later, I in the police station."

The girl said as the boy just sat, there as he wrapped his arms, around her. "I came here to find out who- what I am, I need to know why, I can't remember 12 hours, of my life, and how I escaped, what I had that the other girls didn't" the boy shook his head still not understanding what she wanted with him, he was so clueless.

"I need your help, use your parents equipment, just please help me find out, the mystery… please." Now Danny understood, he couldn't give his answer right away, of course they both knew, he'd he agree to do anything he could, but right now wasn't the time for that.

Danny was quite, once again and for a few moments the air around them grew thick. "What happened to the guy?" The boy said, softly his curiosity getting the best of him. a sick creepy smile grew wide, across the girls face.

It was something the boy had never seen before, no that's wrong he'd seen it, on the ghost he'd fought that's where he'd seen it. Still Danny stayed silent. "I know how fucked up this is gonna sound, but I remember passing a newspaper stand, when my train stopped in new York, and the first page had him, there dead, lying in a puddle of his own blood, and I didn't know how, but I knew I did it, and I smiled. My heart held no remorse, I smile I was glad, that I killed him. I still am…"

The girl said, looking at the halfa before her, waiting to see his reaction, he showed none. "…have you ever wanted to kill someone, and smile about It." the girl said as she gave off, a dark cynical chuckle. "Yes" the boy said cryptically, confusing both of them, and it was true, even the great hero Danny phantom had a shit list.

Without the girl asking, it the boy answered what he knew her question would be. "max nelson, the son of a bitch bullied me, from kindergarten and he broke into my house, and stole practically all of our savings." The boy said as the girl began laughing, even though the things they were discussing were far, from funny. "What the fuck is so funny" the boy, said his scowl placed on his face. "No….nooo, I'm not laughing at you." The girl said in-between laughs, as she took a moment to compose herself.

"I was just thinking, about us just going around the world, and murdering sons of bitches. With that the boy to begin laughing, and once again the broke out into laughter as well.

"All alone, I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me"

It was funny how even though the last memory that had pasted its self in the girls mind, had not been a happy one, but she still enjoyed it, because it was her and Danny, no matter what emotion that the memory consisted of.

It didn't matter whether or not, it was pretend or reality, just the thought of the blued eyes rave haired, boy made her want to go on, it made her want to be a better person, even if he'd never love her, which he would, that she know, she wanted to be better anyway.

She knew that he had probably, had many other woman in California by now, and that didn't matter either, as long as that lopsided grin, was forever planted onto his face, it didn't matter. No matter, what happened and what didn't, she would always be there, even when he didn't need her.

planting a soft kiss, on the picture the girl held in her hands, the girl let a few tears moisten it's pristine surface. Memory after memory, fantasy after fantacy, every single night, they had gotten worse, since Danny left, and ham and skillet had died.

The girl had fantasies, about so much sometimes they'd seem, so real she could feel the warmth yet freezing, cold of his skin as she placed her dainty fingertips on them. She could feel his strong arms wrap themselves around her body.

She could hear him sing to her, hear him, call her name out when they made love- scratch that no, they never made love they just fucked, but in her mind they did things that would never happen. She would imagine, that they'd live happily ever after, that they were met to be together.

She would pretend that the baby, was in wed lock and that they were older and together, she would pretend they'd take long walks on the beach, and that there relationship didn't consist, of them betting on their peers virginities.

She pretended these things, yes but she did not wish them, she could not, not if he didn't wish these things, she had no right to wish them either. She refused to be selfish, so she would pretend; she would pretend that she was okay with watching him be with other girls.

She would pretend, that she was okay with watching him get married, one day, watching him father other children, she'd pretend that she was okay, with that, for him.

"In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river" the sun was shining bright that morning, as Danny and Paul sat side by side, by a beautiful crystal clear river, a basket in-between them. The trees around them were full and green and the pair sat in the lush grass, the flowers around them seemed far too good to be true, just as everything else.

The sky was as blue as the boys, eyes and the clouds were had white, as either other of then had ever seen. The girl was clad in a pristine white gown, it was fancy and lacy, she had a light pink sun hat, both things were completely out of her style, but yet she wore them anyway.

The sound of rushing river water, and there racing hearts were all that was heard, as they enjoyed that moment of peace, and silence.

"In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
and all I see is him and me forever and forever"

When the girl closed her eyes, Visions like pictures passed through, both pairs of eyes, of the things that were to come. The girl glanced down at the engagement ring on her, finger as she thought of their little girl at home, there home. She thought, of things their marriage would be, as they aged together, and parted, when one of them died.

There were no words, needed the sounds of nature, were speaking for the, there love was speaking for them. Danny snaked an arm around the girl as she snugged close to him. "I love you" the girl whispered, softly but he did not answer, he just sat still like a statue, like something that did not move, could not move something that wasn't real.

"And I know it's only in my mind
that I'm talking to myself and not to him" the girl sung her voice, cracking like cracked glass, and she felt her heart crack with it. She wondered how long she would have to pretend to keep herself sane, she wondered when she'd finally be able to avenge ham and skillet, and figure out the mystery that held her captive.

Then she could die, and then she could live her after life in peach, doing nothing but thinking about him." And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us" the girl felt hope fell in her heart for a moment, and she didn't know where it came, from nor how to keep it there. But she wanted, no needed it. Hope could help a great deal, the idea of having a chance no matter how slim, made her heart accelerate.

What if there was a chance…

"I love him" once again the girls voice filled the air, as she thought about the possibly, but just as quickly as it came it went. "But when the night is over
He is gone, the river's just a river" Paulette Reynolds, sat next to her fiancé, his arms wrapped around her, saddened he became almost unclear to see, like he was fading away.

The river was still flowing, and their hearts, were still beating, everything was the same, except the ring, it too had begun to disappear, everything she knew, was dissolving slipping through, to fingertips.

She held her hand out to touch, him her hand touched a misty form of his face, as he was dissolving more and more. "I'm so sorry Paul." The boy said, though his body was still faded away, the lower half of him was already gone, and his eyes were flickering in and out.

The boy looked more, like a blob, now. "Don't be sorry, just stay with me" the girl said her eyes, watering with tears that she thought sure she had ran out of by then. Up seeing the fading away boy, try to point the girl began to look around her surroundings.

The once white clouds had begun to darken, and the lush greenery that surrounded them, had begun to brown, the light pink hat that the girl had worn faded, to dark forest green, and the once pristine white dress the girl wore, had begun to fade into black.

"I can't Paul, I'm not here"

The wind blew furiously has, rain started to fall and the greenery began to wither even further. "Without him the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers"tears began to spew from her eyes, even in her fantasy land, because now even reality had come in there. She was forcefully in thrown back into reality; her now ruined fantasy world had faded.

Something was wrong, very wrong, this had never happened, before something went wrong, and she knew it had to do with her powers. "I love him" they had been so close, to finding out what she was, and pull fate reared its ugly head, now what was she to do.

"But every day I'm learning
All my life I've only been pretending" she had to know, now she couldn't pretend it was a coincidence any more, she needed the answers more now than ever, if she were to defeat crystal, she knew she needed to. She knew the stakes were higher now, if they were targeted ham, and skillet and now her, surely they'd go after Danny next, and they wouldn't touch him, they'd have to kill her first.

"Without me his world will go on turning
a world that's full of happiness
that I have never known!" if they were coming for Danny, then she'd stop them, she'd stop them good. The girl couldn't stop thinking about him though, she couldn't stop thinking about her love her him, although it belied a greater truth, he was met for someone else.

More tears, came to her eyes, and she let them out, her body wracked with sobs, and the picture that she was once gripping with dear, life she let fall to the floor, slowly. "I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own." The girl sang as she finished the song that she had written for the boy quite some time ago, when she first realized she loved him. She had a long journey ahead, of her, to make sure that when crystal would come she'd be ready…

Crystal Winchester, I her 16 year old form walked briskly to room, 666 and she took her petite fist and knocked on the door. The girl was visible shaking, she was literally terrified, what if vlad found out she had gone soft, and sweetly murdered the girl, she hoped he didn't know, surely he'd kill her,

After a few moments, the door was answered by none other than vlad masters, the girl visibly jumped, expecting one of his servants to answer the door. "Come in my dear." The girl did as instructed, and closed the door behind them.

Sitting down on the bed, the man simply said "is the Task done." The man stated stoically. "Yes the girl is dead." The woman stated showing no emotion, the man before her gave off an evil grin. "Very good my dear, now I have another task for you." The man said, and crystal could already guess what it was.

"You want me to murder, Paulette Reynolds" the woman guessed, the man's creepy smile broadened even further. "Yes, but there's more you will kill, the girl in due time. But first you are going, to exploit her, weaknesses her, fears, make you insane, and break her."

The man said, the girl was shocked, murder was bad enough, but to tear the girl apart, first if this was the price for power, she wanted no part of it. well that was if she had choice which she didn't, that was gone, crystal Winchester had no free will.

She was a prisoner, that was all she was now the essence of her being, and after her week moment, with the now dead teen, the lines between everything were becoming so blurred. "Yes master." The girl said calmly showing little emotion, although on the inside she felt wrong about the whole thing.

"Very well…" the cruel man said after he ignored the girl's discomfort. "Now lay on your back." The man said. "yes master" the girl said as she did what he said, and waited for the man to crawl on top of her, once again regretting leaving her real life behind.

Danny and Sam lay in Sam's bed cuddled up, with a blanket spread around them as they watched a movie together. "Child's play is a classic" the girl said extremely impressed, that he kept his parents vhs copy. "I'm surprised you have a player still…" the boy began, but then he thought about it. "Oh actually wait, I can."

Sam gave him a playful hit, on the chest before; she turned back to the screen. "Hush this is my favorite part." The girl said, as her boyfriend quickly obeyed. "Don't go in there stupid, I said don't- damnit she went in there."

Sam screamed as Danny broke out in laughter, at his girlfriend. The life that they knew without each other was far behind, them this was the type of life they wanted to have forever. Danny pulled Sam in closer, as he to turn to the screen.
