9. The Parent Talk
Danny starred up at the ceiling and wondered what he could have done to stop the fight.
DPOV
You shouldn't have kissed her Danny, you knew that she wasn't acting like herself…
So what! She said that she didn't like Nick anymore and that she loved me! How was I supposed to know that she was under a spell!
No matter what you say, you still knew that it wasn't the real Sam, no matter how much you don't want to admit it, I still know the truth! You want to know why? Cause I am Danny Phantom!
Shut up! Leave me alone, I'm going to go talk to my parents! They're better company than you are!
Hey!
Danny walked down the stairs and went into the kitchen where his parents were working on a new experiment, The Ghost Call, it was supposed to find out where a ghost was hiding by detecting its voice. So far, all that it had done was just say the same thing over and over again, you are a ghost… you are a ghost…
"Mom, Dad, can I talk to you guys for a second?" Danny said, watching his dad eat a ham sandwich.
"Of course honey, you know that you could always talk to us whenever you need help." said Maddy, taking the sandwich away from Jack.
"Awww… I just started eating that!" Jack complained as Maddy put the sandwich into the refrigerator.
"Quite Jack, Danny has something important to say to us." Maddy said calmly and sat down on the kitchen table.
"Does it have anything to do with ghost?" Jack asked holding up The Ghost Call which continued to say the same thing over and over again.
"No, it's actually about Sam…" Danny said, slightly blushing when his mom smiled at him. Suddenly his dad jumped up and made the chair fall over causing a loud THUNK as it hit the floor.
"Did a ghost take over Sam?"
"Noooo…"
"Did a ghost abduct Sam?"
"No…"
"Did a ghost attack Sam?"
"NO! Dad I just want to talk to about my… feelings for Sam…" Danny said as Maddy's smile seemed to grow wider.
"So, its finally happened, our little boy is growing up!" Maddy said hugging Danny tightly.
"So, our son has finally got the feelings for girl. Well son, what I have to tell you is this, I think that she would be a fine wife because she believes in ghost!" said Jack as he smiled proudly at his son. Danny's mouth had dropped open in surprise. Maddy starred at Jack in shock.
"Jack! Our son is only fourteen soon to be fifteen! How could he be thinking about marriage at this age! At least, I hope that's not what he was going to tell us!" Maddy said turning her head towards Danny and giving him an odd look.
"NO MOM! I didn't mean it like THAT! Look, I'm just going through a little problem because Sam's going out with another guy and I suddenly realize that I have feelings for her and now I'm really stressed out and I just feel like going out and beating up Nick until he can disappears into the dust and so that I can have Sam all to myself and so that I can go back to my old life before Nick EVER EXISTED!" Danny said, his voice rising at every word that he said. Jack was still staring at the refrigerator, but then his head shot up when Danny yelled.
"Danny, just remember this…nobody is real competition compared to a Fenton. And if you really do have feelings for Sam, then just tell her and then propose to her! It worked with Maddy." Jack said as he got his sandwich out of the refrigerator and took a big bite out of it.
"JACK! Danny does not want to get married! Now Danny, forget everything that your father just told you and listen to me…I knew that you always had feelings for you, but I didn't know that she had a boyfriend, tell me about him." Maddy said folding her hands across the table. She reminded Danny of an older version of Jazz.
"Well, what I can say is that he is probably the perfect boyfriend for Sam. He's just her type you know…gothic, cheers her up whenever he's around…and also he is on her mind no matter what…it's like she's under a spell or something." Danny said calmly waiting for his mom to say something to him.
"So, what you're telling me is that you have now realized that you have feelings for her but…you told her that you have feelings for her right?" Danny nodded his head when she asked him this, "Now Danny, have you ever thought about how this might this seem like from her point of view?" Maddy asked him looking straight into his eyes. Danny shook his head no. "Well Danny think about it…even if you don't want to hear this, Sam now has a boyfriend and he makes her feel special, but now you've told her about your feelings for her. Danny, this makes it very complicated for Sam, she has a boyfriend and now she has her best friend telling her that after all these years he finally has feelings for her. How would you feel like if you were in her situation." Maddy asked Danny. Danny felt entrapped in her words and was now feeling as if he were in a session with a therapist.
"Well, I would feel as if suddenly the world was crashing around me…like everything is just suddenly starting to complicate itself. I would feel very stressed out and confused of my feelings and then I would feel as if I were all alone in this world…like there was no one there to help me but the closest person that I knew. That, in Sam's case, would be Nick." Danny said as Maddy to nod her head.
"So, now that you are seeing it from Sam's point of view, doesn't that make you feel better?" she asked him, watching him very closely.
"Yeah,…I guess I do…" Danny said as his mom started to get up.
"Good, then I guess that our discussion is over. And remember honey, you can always talk to me whenever you need help." She said, then motioned Jack to leave the kitchen with her.
"Mom," Danny asked as he too started to leave the kitchen and go back up the stairs, "how do you know all of this stuff?"
"Jazz wasn't the only one who wanted to become a psychologist…" she said as she existed the kitchen. Suddenly, Jack's head popped out of the kitchen.
"Danny, always remember this, if she believes in ghost then fight for her Danny. FIGHT FOR HER AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT!" Jack shouted into the kitchen and then ran down to the basement with Maddy.
"Sure dad…whatever you say." Danny said as he shut the door from his room and locked it. Suddenly Danny's ghost sense went off. "Oh great, more complications," muttered Danny as he turned around to look at the window. He only caught a glimpse of what he thought was glowing, also, he thought that he saw that the glowing thing was crying. "What's that?" Danny asked himself as he changed into Danny Phantom, "Whatever it is, it's going inside the thermos!" Danny said as he flew outside his window. Once he got a closer look, he saw that it was Sam who was crying and was being flown by another ghost. "Hey! That was Sam…and who's that ghost?" Danny asked himself, suddenly Sam had stopped crying and then started talking to the ghost. Danny neared in closer to hear what they were talking about.

OOHHH! Sorry you guys that I haven't been able to update recently, and also, sorry d/s fans that I keep on stalling on Danny saving Sam! But do not give hope! DANNY WILL FOR SURE SAVE SAM FROM NICK TOMORROW! The problem is that I've joined b-ball in order to keep my mind off of you-know-you! That was the worst mistake off my life cuz now I realize that I am definitely not a sports girl but I am NOT GOING TO QIUT! I AM NOT A QUITER! Also, I am now starting another fic called Inside Me, so it might tale me longer to update than it usually does. Anyway, thanks for the reviews and don't give up on me!
pottersparky: Thanks for the e-mails, and hopefully you can help me out! I'm so out of it! AAAAHHH!
Flairi Blue: Thanks for the review, and sorry that you got grounded from the computer. That never happens to me instead my mom takes away my Jesse McCartney CD. NNNOOOO! (I'm a BIG JMac fan!)
JCfever: Thank you for your concerns, but the plus side about b-ball is that it really helps! My BFF and I are friends again and she is plotting a way to get revenge! TAKE THAT! (That comment goes out to my ex-BF Nick, yes I know…so wrong that I named the bad guy after my boyfriend…but now it feels so right. )
