Danny held onto Vlad's arm out of nervousness. He was really hoping that nobody would recognize-
"Vlad, where's Danny?" Both Halfas turned to see Jazz, walking with Dash right behind her, carrying various textbooks.
"Um, D-daniel is back at the mansion, he didn't want to get out of bed just yet so I let him sleep in." Vlad lied.
Jazz couldn't help but glare at the man. While Dash couldn't help but stare at the girl who held onto the man's arm so tightly.
"Who is this?" Jazz asked angrily.
"J-Jacqueline Honri." Danny stuttered in a slightly high pitched tone. Jazz's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates.
"Oh uh, w-well, e-excuse me, Mrs. Honri, may I speak to you alone?"
Dash watched the two girls walk off to the side and he never took his eyes off of the seam of Jacqueline's skirt. Vlad growled and got the boy's attention. "You'd best not be staring boy, my threat from last week still stands and it applies for Jacqueline as well."
"What? I was just looking at her. What are you to her anyway?!" Dash growled. This senior citizen already took away his favorite punching bag/ chew toy, now he's telling him he can't look at a girl who is prettier then even Paulina?
"... she's my lover."
Dash was shocked, "Isn't that pedophilia? That's disgusting, she looks maybe 14!"
"She's 16, turning 17 in only a few more months. I met her during one of my business trips, I wooed her until she finally said yes. In her country it was normal for a mere 15 to 20 year age difference between couples." Sure it was an out-right lie, but like that brute was going to dare and prove him wrong. Vlad was damn sure the blonde couldn't even spell his own name.
"Really, what country?!"
"Terra mortuorum." That wasn't really a lie, land of the dead in Latin, tranlates to terra mortuorum.
Dash glared at the man before looking away.
XxX-DP-XxX
"So, Danny." At the sound of his name he jumped a bit, "Why are you dressed like a girl?"
"Well, uh, I... I gave in Jazz. Vlad told me that he loved me, and I kinda just... caved. We're going to the movies, but I just had to open my fucking mouth, now I'm stuck in this." Danny brushed a falling leaf off of his skirt.
Jazz examined her brother, then glanced over to find Dash staring at him. "Danny be careful. I can tell Dash has taken a liking to your new found girl-self. You might think that ghost hunting is hard, just wait until the football team (or Tucker) sees you. You'll be living every straight guys' nightmare."
"Why? I don't see much of a problem. If Dash likes Jacqueline, I'll just tell him I'm going out with Vlad."
Jazz glanced over to Dash and Vlad again, they looked like they were about to rip each other's throats out. "No need, Vlad just told him."
"Well then, that's one less thing I have to worry about."
Jazz set her hand on her brother's shoulder, "Just be careful, treat this as if you're Phantom, once this little date is over, don't EVER wear woman's clothes again. You may end up getting raped or worse."
Danny could understand his sister's worry, "I won't, these are too uncomfortable. Now come on, don't you have to teach the chimp how to read?"
Jazz smiled, "It's the equivalent, or probably worse. So he just up and confessed?"
Danny shuddered, "Yeah, while driving, it was horrifying." Jazz laughed as they returned to the two men.
"Alright Vlad, you're good to go. Take care of 'her'." Jazz herded Dash away, who was still staring.
Danny exhaled, "So what movie are we going to see?"
"Well, I thought about what you normally like: space and action. I came with the conclusion that maybe The Green Lantern was best."
Danny grinned widely and his eyes practically sparkled, "I'd love to! I've wanted to see that for a while!"
"Well then let's go." Danny hooked back onto Vlad's arm with a shy smile.
"I never knew you had a clingy side." Vlad teased as he bought the tickets. Danny blushed, socked him in the arm and let go. "I also never said I didn't like it." Vlad pulled the smaller into a hug. Danny's blush darkened even worse and he clung back to Vlad's arm, just to hide it. Vlad guided them to their seats in the theater.
They just sat there for a minute until Danny felt his ghost sense go off and he felt a cold hand touch his shoulder. "Hey, what's up baby-pop?" Danny turned to see Ember staring maliciously at him. Then her expression turned to one of shock once she saw his outfit. "What are you wearing?"
Vlad turned to see Ember as well, "Ah, Ms. McClain, I assume Skulker is somewhere nearby?"
"Ember's shock only grew, and to make it worse, her curiosity was beginning to get the best of her, "Yeah... How are you two sitting so close to each other without Plasmius trying to kidnap Phantom?"
Vlad smirked, "We've... resolved our differences. And, due to some twist of fate, time and space, are dating."
Ember sighed, "Took ya long enough. Everyone in the Ghost Zone was wondering when the hell it might happen. I thought I was going to have to use my love song again, the last time made me barf, just so you know. And I ask again, what are you wearing?"
"A skirt, I picked his outfit out, didn't I do a good job?" Vlad said with pride.
"I have to say, yea, if I wasn't already dating Skulker, I might have had to kidnap you myself and do unspeakable things to ya." she teased.
Vlad did not take her teasing well and growled, "The boy is mine, Ambrielle."
Ember's face turned a darker shade of blue as she growled back at him, "That's not my name anymore."
"Whatever." Vlad turned back around and placed his hand on Danny's.
Skulker came in and saw Danny, he almost jumped up and started a fight, then he saw Ember fuming. He decided that helping her calm down was more important. She explained why they were there and that they shouldn't attack them.
Danny and Ember talked again once she calmed down, but once the movie started they quieted and watched.
Danny: I'm gonna be sick, Dash likes me now?
Vlad: He truly is a brute, I don't see how you can put up with him.
Danny: I don't, I get waled on every day at least once
Naru: POOR DANNY! *Glomps Danny*
Vlad: *snickers* yes, 'poor Danny' indeed.
Danny: R and R so we can get a crowbar and pry her off!
