I don't own Danny Phantom nor do I pretend to… but there are characters that are my own in this fanfic …
Btw flash backs are italics
This is dedicated to my Danny Phantom you loser wake up! I'm right in front of your face!
P.S. Sorry if this and the last chapter was kind of lame but I SWEAR THE NEXT CHAPTER IZ COMPLETELY AWESOME!
The next month and a half, rushed by like a bad/ good dream Danny and I still spent a lot of time together like, seriously nothing had happened at all between us. Richard and I were becoming closer and closer as time moved on, but thank god he wasn't pushing the serious stuff in my face yet… Oh god I hope he wasn't as bent on getting that stuff as he was on getting me…
Anyway the Halloween dance was coming up. So that's kind of cool I'll probably go with Richard and Danny will probably go with Paulina. I still don't see what he sees in that girl, but lately he seems kind of bored? If that's possible… I mean him with the queen of the school… Oh what ever! Why do I even care? But hey this way Danny and I will get to spend more time together at the dance committee (hey this dance is perfect for me! Halloween!) Richard would join but he's got basketball and actually that really bums me out… God it's so corny but I really think I'm starting to love him like I love Danny and I'm starting to love Danny like I love Tucker… Oh well I guess it's true that you never forget your first love but who's says it's your last right!
Anyway here comes wonder boy now.
"Hey Sam."
"Hey Danny! What's up?"
"Uh you know the usual…"
"So Sam there's been something I've really wanted to clear up and I-"
"I AM THE BOX GHOST! MASTER OF ALL THINGS CARDBOARD AND SQUAAAAAAAARE! FEAR ME"
Hence everyone aside from me and Danny ran outta the Cafeteria.
"UGH! I don't have time for you right now! OK? Can we do this sometime later?" Danny barked irritated
The Box ghost's response to this was sending a million boxes of our decorations at us… Perfect…
"I'm going ghost" Danny said VERY unenthusiastically.
Danny turned into Danny Phantom and blah blah blah you know the drill and then finally captured him into the canteen.
"I hate that ghost and if he weren't already dead I would meet in a dark corner and keel him myself." Danny grumbled
All I could do was laugh.
"No wouldn't, Boy wonder because then you would get sent to jail for homicide."
"I don't think so… I mean, I would have done society a favor."
I laughed again it was moments like these that made me love him. And then I remembered Danny had something to tell me then the box ghost yet again interrupted.
"Hey Danny?"
"Yeah… God look how much stuff we have to redo because of that idiot."
Valid point but I was more interested in what he was going to say.
"What were you going to clear up before?"
"Huh?" was his response… I knew it, I knew he would lose his nerve again.
"You know you were going to tell me something… Up until the box ghost interrupted in fact you had been trying to tell something for a month now but the box ghost keeps coming by."
" OH YEAH! Damnit! I completely forgot…"
"You forgot the same thing for a month?"
"No I've told you the other stuff later, like what did we have for homework and stuff like that."
"Oh sorry."
"No Biggie."
"Let me go tell people that "Inviso-Bill" saved the day." He chuckled as he left.
I really doubt that he forgot what he was going to tell me. And I really doubt that what he really wanted to ask/tell me was a bout something as pointless as homework. No this thing was big, it was like a big hole inside of him, that he really wanted help with or something that he really wanted me to know. I remember the last time he did this was when his grandma died… It took him forever to finally get it out… We were just little kids like 12 I think… That was the first time I ever saw him cry about anything. He wouldn't cry about getting beat up by Dash, or getting in trouble… He cried about something real something that meant the world to him… And god his grandma died the same time mine did… They were even the same age 62. I don't think he let's on to how much that really affected him. From that day on we were never afraid to ask for each other's help or shoulder. Honestly I think that's why, he's never good at showing his emotions, he's so used to creating a brick wall for everything and anything that hurts him that it's almost like he was half ghost anyway, In a way it makes me sad that we're drifting apart. And as much I as love Richard I don't really think I can share anything thing with him like I do with Danny… I probably will later, but definitely not now.
Well at least the rest of the committee's back here, along with Danny.
":Deep Sigh: Ok People let's get back to work." I said after taking one quick look at the damage.
So over the next two hours we attempted to get back on track and it ended up looking not too bad.
Sometime around 5:45 Danny and I started walking home together.
"So Danny what are you going to do with Paulina on Saturday."
"Break up with her."
"WHOA! What when did this development happen?"
"Ugh! She's just SO boring and to top it off she went out with me for a bet."
"WHAT?" OH THE BITCH IS GOING DOWN!
"Relax Sam… I really don't care."
"Danny…"
":Sigh: hey she was as nice as a mule. I really do not care."
"Danny…"
"Sam don't give me that look. It's ok, the truth is she was just rebound."
My heart beat speed up. Oh god who was he rebounding from?
"Sam you remember that girl I hooked up with? At camp?"
"Yeah… Hey you never told me what actually happened with that."
(A/N: See earlier chapters if you're just skipping through)
"Yeah, well Sam… She was a really nice girl ok… and like you know stuff happened. Well then she just ditched me. And it turns out, that she had been with like 60 guys so I don't I guess I felt kind of crumby like chump change after that. Paulina was just my way of getting through that. I really stopped liking Paulina last year it was purely physical since you can't have a conversation with the girl."
"Danny… I'm… I'm so sorry."
He smiled, "Don't be… The important thing is I'll still always have Tucker, Val, The 'rents, Jazz and You, and honestly that's all I care about."
"Danny…" I gave him my most sympathetic look and hugged him. "I'm so sorry…"
He hugged back, "Thanks Sam… I'm really glad we can still be this close. So this is you." He said pointing to my house.
"Yeah… You know I actually need a lot of help in math…"
"Garbage you're fine! You know you're actually average at math our school is retarded and goes a grade above what it should."
"But I-"
"I told you relax it's not like I'm about to slit my wrists believe me I've better things to worry about."
"Is this what you wanted to tell before the box ghost interrupted?"
He looked down and then smiled, "Yeah… Am I that transparent?"
"No… I knew you were hiding I just didn't know what from."
"Damn you artists and your psychic powers." He chuckled
"You're good at writing essays just not creative writing…"
"NO JOKE! Sam I gotta really got to go and do home work."
"Or play computer games with Tucker online…" I smiled
"I really am that transparent aren't I?"
"YUP!" I left him smiling for the first time in a long time as I headed for my door.
The next day was Friday… day of the dance and surprisingly the decorations looked pretty good. (even thought the box ghost did a lot of damage yesterday.) It was cool to see everyone's costumes… Mine was Daria from Daria… Yeah I know original but I love that girl. Tucker was Shorty from Scary Movie god that's hilarious, Val was Beyonce, And Danny to humor all irony was Danny Phantom and everyone thought it was the best costume ever. Even Richard who was Zach Braff from Scrubs thought it was pretty good.
"Dang man where did Danny get those contacts? These blues ones don't do much for me damn my brown eyes………"
"I think he shipped 'em from Japan." I responded trying to not to be that obvious…
"Oh… cool."
The rest of the night was mindless dancing, spiked punch and all that. Richard tried to kiss me a couple of times, for some reason I wasn't really in the mood. He eventually gave up, I was kind of happy about that… but wait shouldn't I be dying for his attention all the time like the way I am with Da-. HOLY SHIT! I'm still not over him! Especially now that he's available. I'm the worst human being in the world… I have a totally chill boyfriend and all I do is compare him to Danny… Well I also compare Richard to Tucker so maybe it's normal… I wish I had another boyfriend before this I feel like an idiot… Oh well…
"Hey Sam?" I completely snapped out of my thoughts,
"Yeah Richard?"
"Can I ask you a question?"
Uh-oh god some how I knew he was gonna ask this I mean he is a guy after all…
"Remember you were telling me about your mom leaving in Thanksgiving the same time as your dad?"
OH GOD!
"Um did you wanna come over? My mom's a pretty decent cook and my little sister wants to meet you…"
"O-Oh… Yeah actually that'd be great…" I said really relieved I seriously thought he was talking about something more suggestive…
Richard looked kind of confused and then smiled "Why what did you think I was gonna ask?"
"Oh… Nothing, nothing not a thing." I grinned I mean hey if he hasn't already thought about it why put the idea into his head right?
"Oh but Sam… There's a catch. Um Paulina's gonna be there you know the family affair and all."
"Oh that's ok as if I care. As long as you'll be there it's cool."
"Thanks Sam you're the best ever!."
We danced for the next couple of songs but little did I know what I was getting into then as I do now…
A/N: I hope you enjoying this so um pleaz review
