"DANIEL JAMES FENTON!" Maddie yelled.

"Yes, mother?"

"Come here for a sec, sweetie."

"Coming." Danny ran towards the basement doors and was greeted bu his mother's stern face.

"Daniel? What's this I hear about someone finding out you're," She leaned into his ear. "Ghostly secret?" He flinched and sighed.

"Yeah, Cleo found out." He pointed at Cleo, who was smiling as if nothing happened while Michelle played with her almond hair. (And thus, we find out the new secret holder!)

Maddie nodded but with a small smirk. "Well, at least she's acting like she knows nothing." Her smirk widen. "So are you two a couple?"

"Wha-? No!" Maddie just laughed. "Why would you day that?!"

"What? I want grand-children!"

"Mother!" Danny's face was beet red as Maddie laughed like she belonged in a mental hospital. She kissed his head and went back downstairs. Embarrassed and still red, he went to his room. But not before he heard a giggle. He looked over at Cleo who was giggling while looking at him. His blush deepened.

She must've heard our conversation. Oooohhh Clockwork help me! Somewhere in the back of his mind he can hear Clockwork saying "All will be fine in time." Or something like that.

Ticking bastard.

Cleo was watching Danny go upstairs with a flushed face. She giggled. She couldn't help it! He's just that adorable! He looked at her and his blush deepened. She giggled again.

"You know, giggling like that will make people think you're crazy." She looked up to see Nathan.

"Shut up, baka!" He shook his head. She felt Mitchells' gentil fingers going through her hair.

"How'd you get your hair to be this soft?"

"I don't know. Lather, rinse and repeat?" The 'geeks' laughed. "What?"

"You sure are something." Mikey said blushing. Cleo smiled. If you asked her about 'pops' and 'geeks', she, without hesitation, say geeks were better. I mean, yeah, being popular has its advantages. But you have no real friends. And you're never comfortable with your company.

"Thanks, Mike." He looked away.

She looked down,thinking about Danny. Not that she likes does, but not that way. She still can't believe he's Phantom. He seems so laid back and the last bet to be Phantom. The Danny Phantom! She can't believe it! She's being in trusted with knowing the ultimate secret, to her anyway. She know the truth behind Amity's own ghostly protector! Paulina would be so jealous! Payback for all of those times she'd tear down her friends for her own amusement. But no. Cleo won't do that. She promised not to spill the beans. And she takes promises seriously. Though he lied about his mom not knowing, she will still keep it.

I promised you Fenton! And I will keep it!

Okay, just to clear things up. When Danny talked about his parents hating him, he was trying to get her not to tell. And let's face it, Maddie's much more capable than Jack when it comes down to it. Bye! (Hope this wasn't much of a surprise ;))
