Saved by a Ghost

A Danny Phantom Fanfic

by Apolla360

Tears stung her Amythest eyes, her whole body shivered uncontrollably in the freezing rain, her jacket was now drenched & no heat had touched Sam's body for nearly three hours; & even in the dark of night she was still searching for Danny & now she was in the Amity Park near the spot where they had there first fake-out make-out.

I'm standing on the bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now

The rain was still pouring, & almost all of Sam's hope of finding Danny was gone. She could hear nothing, only the sound of the rain & her chattering teeth were heard.

There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

Sam sank to her knees on the muddy ground, her jacket fell from her shoulders; it had dawned on her that she wasn't going to find Danny tonight, probably not ever. "Danny...please...come back." Sam whispered, feeling hot tears stream down her face.

Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life

Sam felt as though it was all her fault, she had convinced him not to tell his parents about his secret; & now is was pretty much her fault that Danny was being searched for by Police. At that moment, all Sam wanted was to be back in Danny's arms, to hold him, to kiss him, & to let him know how sorry she was about everything.

Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

Sam slammed her fist into the muddy ground, spraying mud all over her face & clothes, & fresh tears rolled down her pale face. "Danny, please...please forgive me, I'm so sorry!" Sam wept. Suddenly, she felt a warm hand being laid on her shoulder, & a gentle voice whispered in her ear. "There's nothing to be sorry about." Sam whipped around & found herself looking into the same bright blue eyes that made her heart melt.

"Danny?" She asked, daring to believe he was standing in front of her.

Danny smiled, "Yeah Sam, it's me." he whispered, pulling her into a strong hug.

When they pulled away, Sam once again looked in to his eyes, there was something...different about them, bright as they were they didn't have that glint of mischeivousness in them; they looked depressed.

Sam stroked the side of Danny's cheek with her thumb, "You okay?" she asked gently; Danny smirked, "Yeah I'm fine, just a little tired."

"Maybe we should find some place to stay."

"My thoughts exactly."

A few minutes later, Danny & Sam were flying invisible through the dreary skies of Amity, just glad to be back in each other's arms; Every now & then they would glance & one another & give each other reassuring smiles.

"I think I see the perfect place!" Danny said happily, pointing with one arm down to an apartment building.

Danny quickly flew down behind the building, & after listening to about three Police cars speed down the road he turned himself & Sam intangible & walked through the brick wall into an obviously occupied apartment.

"We have lights!" Sam chuckled, after flipping on a switch. Danny smiled at her & began to pull off his shirt.

"W-what're you doing?" Sam stuttered, trying not to blush; Danny stopped undressing, "I was gonna take a shower, I've been hiding in the sewers all day & I don't think you'll wanna kiss me while I'm like this." he smirked.

Sam nodded & went to sit down on the couch, she yawned & lay down on her side. "I'll be right here when you get done." she said, her eyelids starting to droop.

"Okay." Danny replied, turning to go in the bathroom, he stopped abruptly & turned back to look at Sam.

"Sam?"

"Yeah?"

"...Thanks for coming after me, I love you."

"Love you too Danny."

Danny heard Sam yawn again as he stepped into the bathroom & began undressing. After turning on the hot water he stepped into the shower & let the water warm him up.

A few minutes later, Danny found Sam sound asleep on the couch. Bending down, he planted a small kiss on her head & covered her up with a nearby blanket.

Soon enough, Danny was laying on the opposite sofa preparing to drift off to sleep, content with the thought that no matter what happened Sam would always be by his side.

Oh why is everything so confusing
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yea yea yea

It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you...
