xLa Reyna Phantasmax, you are just too funny. Hellbreaker, I think that sometimes Sam tries to put herself in an illusion much like Tucker does when he wants something to go the way he wants, but hers comes to an end whereas Tucker's seems to continue into his dreams. LOL.
Sam was the first one to wake up the next morning to find Dan passed out on his stomach. It was so endearing and she could remember all the times that Danny had fallen asleep the same way. She knew deep in her heart of hearts that she was just replacing the love she felt for her friend with his future self. She knew that no matter what she did with him that she loved Danny. Reaching out she touched his cheek, the coolness of his body reaching her before her fingers even touched the silky texture of his cheek.
"I know who you are thinking about," he muttered as he opened his now green eyes, some of the green dispatching to blue. "You need to come to terms with that." She tried to pull her hand away but Dan grasped it quickly as he looked into her eye, the eyes that held so many emotions. "You need to realize that your happiness is what matters and you know that I can't give you that."
"I know that you won't be that knight in shining armor," she stated. "But you saved me when you know I would have been killed. I would have ended up one of those souls that roam the Ghost Zone." He shook his head.
"No, Sam. You would have ruled the Ghost Zone. Your soul is so full of emotions, so many of them unfulfilled that you would never rest and that was something I could never allow." She smiled at him as she leaned down to kiss him on the cheek. "You know that you deserve so much and you know that even if it is never with Danny that you can find it without a male to give that to you." Sam had cringed at the name of the one person she loved above herself. She had never thought he would utter those words to her, but hearing them she knew that it was true. It was also false because she would live half a life without him. That sounded so wrong coming from her, but from the moment she had met him she knew that she and Danny were the same soul. The fact that he didn't know that was all the more depressing, but she would get over it. She would move on with her life and then she would die, her life incomplete. Some people never found that other half and some never had one, but she had one and she had found him, but he was so far away that she was alone.
"Would that have been my fate?" she wondered aloud and then she remembered that he had been kept in the tower that housed the doorway through time. "I don't want that." He knew that Sam would never want to harm people and although sometimes her ideas were less than admirable she meant no malice.
"You have done that before though," he said seriously. She looked to him with shock. "Yeah, there was this time that we were going to have lunch at school and you told Tucker that you changed the menu," he said with a mock look of fright. Danny was walking by at that time seeing as it was relativity late in the morning and they needed to get on with their plan to take care of Vladmius. Tucker appeared at his side and both listened as Dan and Sam relived the old days.
"And I was like WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" Tucker said as he walked into the room. The love birds looked up in shock as the door opened and Danny stood there with suck a look of shock as Tucker continued in with a chuckle. Before them Sam pulled up the blanket, her cheeks turning red as Dan moved to sit in front of her, his own cheeks slightly red, but he played it off as he reached over and grabbing his black and white spandex top he handed it to his lover who quickly pulled it on before turning to the male standing there with a grin. "I will forever remember the day that Sam took over the menu."
"Yeah, that was the day your put her life in danger for the first time," Dan spat. Danny walked in to find the alarmed look still on Sam's face.
"What are you talking about? She shouldn't have changed the menu and then that ghost wouldn't have come for her!" Danny frowned at his friend. Yeah, he was right to some degree, but Sam had just been her usual self.
"Tucker, she didn't know who had done it until you told her," he stated only to find the technophile's teal gaze on him. "It is true. I mean she asked who changed the menu so she didn't know it was Sam."
"Really, Danny? You take the side of the person banging the girl you want?" the male inquired as he gestured to the couple on the bed. Danny and Dan were the only ones who saw Sam's face turn a dangerous pale before her eyes rolled back into her head.
