Maddie waited. How would he response? Would he come clean? Or would he deny it, just like what he has been doing all this while?

"You must be feverish. How can anyone be alive and dead at the same time? You should rest. Maybe you'll feel better after that." Danny suggested.

Looks like it'll take a little more persuasion before he'll open up. Maddie decided to play along.

"You're right, sweetie. Maybe Technus did more damage to me than I thought." Maddie paused for awhile. Would he notice the name?

"I was just wondering, sweetie, why did you stick your head through the floor? You looked like an ostrich." Maddie said, laughing at the memory.

Danny froze. His face was literally as pale as a ghost. A wry smile touched her lips. Oh the irony.

"It… that… laughter… was… you?" He stammered. Maddie nodded.

His hand was rubbing his neck again. Frantic baby blue eyes darted around the room, looking at anything but her. Maddie waited. Having Jack as her husband had really taught her how to slow down her pace. Anyway, it wasn't as if there was no time, right?

Danny's eyes finally landed on her after travelling the whole room in one minute. His hand left the back of his hand. The raven-haired teen seemed to have calmed down.

"You're not mad at me? I lied to you and dad for more than a year." He said quietly. Maddie gave him a small loving smile. Her eyes softened as she reached out to touch Danny's cold hands.

"I followed you as a spirit yesterday, ever since you visited me as Phantom. I saw you wake up at 2.52 a.m."

"You remembered the time?" Danny spluttered.

"It's rude to interrupt, sweetie." Maddie scolded him lightly before continuing. "I saw you fight more ghosts in less than a day than what your father and I could even meet in one week. I saw that boy push you against the locker and you didn't even fight back, despite the fact that you could have easily sent him crying.

"I saw you accept that detention you didn't deserve without a word of protest. And since nobody could communicate with me, I had a lot of time to think." Maddie said softly.

"Why didn't you tell us? Was it because your father always says that he wanted to tear Phantom apart molecule by molecule?" She looked straight into his eyes. Danny gave her a look that was a cross of a squirm and a sheepish look.

"Not exactly, part of it, I guess." Danny mumbled. "Mom, can you please get dad to change his 'I want to tear Phantom apart molecule by molecule' catch phrase? I may be failing science…"

"You're failing science?" Maddie said sharply.

"No! Yes! Not yet!" Danny blurted out. He quickly tried to steer the topic away. "Anyway, my molecules may have been rearranged, but I like it the way it is now. It's definitely better than having my molecules in a Petri dish."

"Well, knowing Jack, he could say 'I'm going to catch the ghost kid, strap him to an experiment table and do lots of painful experiments on him to extract every single molecule and information he has.'." Maddie answered truthfully.

Danny paled.

"Tearing me apart molecule by molecule sounds just fine." Danny said quickly. Maddie laughed. In the end, her son was still a little kid.

"I can't say that I understand why you didn't tell us, but I can tell you that you will always be my Danny. Being Fenton or Phantom doesn't matter. You're still Danny in both forms. When you're ready to tell me, I'll be ready to listen." Maddie said as she gently squeezed his hand.

Slowly, Danny wrapped his fingers around her hand. She realized that he was shaking.

"Thank you. You don't know how much I wanted to hear that." Danny whispered. Every word was filled with emotion.

They shared a small smile. Inside her, she felt the mother-son connection between them that had been severed for so long renew. That abstract link between them that allowed them to know how each other felt.

She had missed it.

However, there were some things she had to do.

"Sweetie, there are some things I have to know. Like the mayor incident…"


Ok, I have one question this time. What does or what would Tucker say when things go wrong? Like Danny's "Oh crud" and Sam's "Darn it" which just so happens to be what Danny would say as well… XP and Vlad's pastry based swears, or something.

In one week's time, Out of Sight will end with an epilogue. I'm feeling happy and sad at the same time. But don't worry, after this, I have another fanfic ready for you guys. )

The thing is… I have a serious case of writer's block right now. Even my drabbles seem weird. Oh well. It'll blow over soon.

Please review!

Now to study for my exams, which starts this Monday…

Dang.
