Chapter 1: What's It Gonna Be?
Daphne sat down in the aeroplane, just next to the window. She watched Spooky Island slowly disappear below, and sighed slightly. OK, so it hadn't started off so great, but she had enjoyed it. One of the most amusing things had been Mary-Jane and Shaggy's nervous flirting-that and Velma's apparent sweetheart. She sighed-it always made her feel all fuzzy inside when she could see romance brewing.
"Urm, Daph?"
She looked up. Fred was stood there, smiling.
"Freddie." She said coolly. Ever since he'd kissed her, she hadn't been sure how to act around him.
"Urm, can I sit here? I don't wanna interrupt Shaggy an Mary-Jane...or Velma an...that guy."
"I think his name is Ethan."
"Urm, right."
Daphne looked at Fred. "If you want to sit down, I'm not gonna stop you." She said gently.
Fred sat down, grinning. "You OK? You seem...bity."
"I'm just sick of being...a damsel."
"I don't think you're a damsel." Fred said quietly.
"Yes you do...You've always acted like I was a damsel."
"Yeah, but you kind of were. Now you're not. Now you can kick butt."
She grinned. "Thanks..."
"No worries."
"Urm, Fred?"
"Yeah?"
"Why did you kiss me?"
He shrugged. "It felt right...you didn't mind that so much, did you?"
"It was OK." She commented dismissively.
Fred inwardly smiled, knowing this was Daphne code for 'I enjoyed it, but if you think I'm telling you that, you've got another think coming' "Oh, so you wouldn't mind if I did it again then?"
"I suppose not."
Fred grinned and kissed her on the cheek. "You know, people always thought we were together..."
She looked at him. "They did? Why?"
"Well...I guess I was always the knight in shining armour to your damsel, I always paired us off together, it was always me you'd clutch to when you got scared...and besides, you know how the media likes everyone paired off."
Daphne nodded thoughtfully. "Why did you always pair off with me?"
Fred shrugged. "I guess I wanted to protect you..."
"That's sweet. Except I don't need protecting."
"I know."
"Good."
"If we were a couple...we could be good." Fred said softly.
"Fred...don't talk like that...you'll confuse me." She whispered.
"Confuse you?"
"If you keep telling me things like that, you'll cloud my judgement." She paused. "But we would be."
"What, a good couple?"
"Yes."
Fred smiled at her. "I'm glad you think so."
Daphne fished out a magazine, and her CD player. "Hmm....Fred, you got a pair of earphones?"
"Yeah, why-you wanna borrow them?"
"Nah, I jus wondered if you wanted to listen as well..."
"Oh, OK-what is it?"
"Oh, some CD I picked up...no idea who it is."
"Then why-"
"I read some of the lyrics, I liked 'em."
Fred plugged in the earphones, just next to Daphne's. "Cool."
Daphne smiled, and pressed play. A song began;
"They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told to you
And the least they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew
And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
No one's listening anyway
Your voice is small and fading
And you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
'Cause she's got nowhere to go
And she wonders where these dreams go
'Cause the world got in her way
What's the point ever trying
Nothing's changing anyway
They press their lips against you
And you love the lies that they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you're falling anyway
And you know I see right through you
'Cause the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
You're not listening anyway"
Fred glanced at Daphne. "That wasn't the kind of style I expected from you, Daph..."
"What did you expect? NSync? Backstreet Boys?"
"Well...yes."
"Then you won't be expecting this one."
The next song came on;
"I am so high. I can hear heaven.
I am so high. I can hear heaven.
No heaven, no heaven dont hear me.
And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as they all fly away.
Someone told me love will all save us.
But how can that be, look what love gave us.
A world full of killing, and blood-spilling
That world never came.
And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as they all fly away.
Now that the world isnt ending, its love that Im sending to you.
It isnt the love of a hero, and thats why I fear it wont do.
And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as they all fly away.
And they're watching us
(Watching Us)
As they all fly away"
Fred turned to Daphne to comment, but saw that she was sleeping. Smiling, her kissed her on the forehead.
"Sleep well, Daph."
