Chapter 11
The rest of the week was the same. Tucker and Danielle spending a lot of time together, while Danny and Sam got more comfortable kissing in public. Everyone knew about Tucker and Danielle going out and they thought she was crazy. She got kicked out of the Popular People Club before she got a membership package. She didn't really care though because they were snobs anyway. She continued to notice how Danny ran off whenever a ghost was near. She believed what Tucker had said so she didn't make a big deal out of it. She hung around with Danny, Sam and Tucker and went they went on a few double dates. A lot of the times Danny and Sam ran off before it was time to go. Tucker didn't seem to mind though. He just said he was used to it by now and it meant a bit of alone time for them. Danielle thought she saw Sam flying with Danny Phantom a few times but didn't believe it. Sam wasn't the girl who cheated on her boyfriend. She seemed to really love Danny. Sam could take care of herself and also wouldn't let any ghost or ghost boy kidnap her. like Sam, Danielle was also rich. Tucker hadn't met her parents yet but she had met his. They all had fun together. It was a fun week for Sam, Danny, Tucker and Danielle but they were really looking forward to the weekend. Even if they didn't have any plans. Well, on Saturday they were all going to the movies, but that was all they had planned. Surprisingly, they only got detention once more that week for being tardy. Danny was tardy a lot because of his ghost fighting. Sometimes Sam and Tucker helped him so they were tardy a lot as well.
The wind was blowing fiercely outside. Danny felt water touch his skin. Was it a dream? Danny opened his eyes to see Tucker and Danielle staring down at him with an empty glass. Wait a second, empty?
"Tucker? why'd you do that?" moaned Danny, turning over.
"because I have been trying to wake you up for the past ten minutes but you ignored me. So I ran into your bathroom and got a glass of water and wet you." Explained Tucker, laughing.
"what's the time?" asked Danny, trying to find his watch.
"it's quarter to ten. Hurry up, we are going to the mall for breakfast and then we are going to watch Fredtreister Eliminator. Sam is expecting us there at half past ten." Tucker screamed in his ears.
"OK, OK. Can I have a little privacy?" asked Danny, getting ready to get up.
"uh, sure. Come on Danielle. Let's go watch T.V or talk to Jazz." Tucker called out to her.
Once they had left Danny turned into Danny Phantom. He needed to feel the cool breeze. He flew out the window and flew around the morning sky. He realised what Tucker had said so he entered his bedroom window to see Tucker and Danielle looking for Danny.
"oh, I think he is still in the shower." Whispered Tucker, seeing Danny fly through the bathroom door.
"OK well maybe we should give him a bit of privacy and go back downstairs to watch cartoons. I hear Bob the Builder is on. It's a funny show." Suggested Danielle.
"let's go then." Smiled Tucker, grabbing Danielle's hand.
They walked downstairs as Danny quickly turned on the shower. He hopped in and found a picture of him and his mom and his dad on the floor. But covering his dad was a different picture. A picture of…
"Plasmius has been here." Frowned Danny, looking around for his archenemy.
Danny hopped out of the shower and got dressed. He put on a coat and headed out of the bathroom and into his room. It was quite cold. Danny could tell from the weather outside.
"finally, we were waiting for ages. Are you ready Danny? It is quarter past and it will take us fifteen minutes to walk there don't cha know." Puffed Tucker.
"come on guys, lets go." Called Danielle from downstairs.
"coming!" screamed Danny and Tucker at the same time.
"dude, what were you doing flying around? And why did you take so long in the shower?" Tucker questioned Danny.
"oh, I needed some fresh air so I went outside and in the shower was a picture of my, my mom and my dad. Except a picture of Vlad was covering my dad. I think he has been here." Answered Danny, still looking around his room.
"well, let's go then." Screamed Tucker, pulling Danny.
"so, your parents like to hunt ghosts?" asked Danielle, trying to make conversation.
"uh, yeah. They love it." Grunted Danny.
"and they don't even know you hate them hunting ghosts?" asked Danielle, looking at Danny's eyes.
"true, they don't know. But I don't want to hurt them so I just keep quiet." answered Danny.
"oh, okay then." Sniffed Danielle.
The weather was heating up a bit and Danny decided to leave his coat home. The other two asked if they could leave their coats there so Danny just said that they could. Danny was looking forward to meeting Sam. He just wanted to look into her bright purple eyes and touch those dark purple lips. He was happy he was meeting her for breakfast and then going to the park before the movie. The movie started at two and they normally took an hour to eat. Not including half an hour waiting for their food. So that gave them two hours to spend at the park. After the movie they were all going back to Sam's to do something before going to tea at six and bowling at seven thirty. The day was pretty well planned out. Danny just hoped he dint have any ghost trouble. It would be fine if Danielle wasn't coming but she was. Danny didn't want her to find out his secret because he didn't trust her all that much. Plus, they have never met her parents, when she had met all of theirs. So Danny was thinking about the day ahead when he saw the two main doors to the mall about ten metres away. He listened to Tucker and Danielle talk about recent ghost attacks. He was glad to hear Tucker say that he didn't know the ghost boy. The talk continued until they reached 'Wendy's Wonderful Waffles' where they saw Sam sitting by a window, waiting for them. They entered the diner and a smile spread across Sam's face.
"hey Danny! Hey Tucker, hey Danielle." Greeted Sam.
"hey Sam." They all greeted her with cheery tones.
Danny hopped into the seat next to her and gave her a short kiss as a welcome.
"so, what have you boys and girl been up to?" asked Sam, leaning near Danny as he put his arm around her.
"oh, nothing really. Just the usual. Except instead of shooting Danny with the Fenton Bazooka I threw water over his face." Laughed Tucker.
"Fenton Bazooka?" asked Danielle.
"oh, that's just something his parents invented to give ghosts a small shock. It doesn't really hurt Danny though. Right Danny?" explained Sam.
"right…" mumbled Danny, looking at the menu.
There wasn't much to choose from but they all decided to get the 'Waffle Supreme'. In the Waffle Supreme were two waffles, two scoops of ice cream, an orange juice or coffee and two scones with jam and cream on them.
"so that's four Waffle Supremes with coffee?" asked the waiter.
"that's correct." Answered Danny.
The waiter walked off with her pen and notebook in her hands. They talked about what movies they had seen and what movies they wanted to see over breakfast. They all ate their food and left the waiter with a small tip of three dollars. Hey, at least it was something. They walked around the park for half an hour before the movie. Then they decided that they should head off towards the movie.
It was a horror movie so when Sam got scared (which happened quite a bit) she could cuddle up to Danny. This is what she liked about the movie. Danielle did the same. They were both easily scared unlike the boys. They didn't get scared over the movie and thought it was pretty good. They thought it would be better if the movie looked a bit more real and a bit less fake.
Dinner was nice, vegetarian risotto for Sam, fillet mignon for Danny and peanut prawns for Danielle and Tucker. after dinner they went bowling. It was Danny and Sam against Tucker and Danielle. Sam and Danny were really good bowlers so they won. Danielle was a good bowler and so was Tucker, but not good enough. They lost by thirty points. Not too bad. It was when Danny walked past his sisters room he began to worry. He overheard a conversation between his mother and his sister.
"Jazz, I need to ask you something." Maddie announced.
"uh, sure mom. What do you want to ask me?" asked Jazz, confused.
"well, I overheard you and Danny talking the other day. About some sort of secret." Started Maddie.
"secret? You mean Danny's secret? About him working at the nasty burger?" asked Jazz, hoping her mom hadn't heard anything about Danny being a ghost.
"no,
well I heard that part too. That he isn't really working there and
he thought that you told me the truth. Something about his secret.
Now I am his mother and I have a right to know." Screamed
Maddie.
"oh, that secret. Well…" started Jazz, thinking.
"come on Jasmine. Spill the beans. I will punish you if you don't tell me, or I will confront Danny." Warned Maddie.
"oh alright," answered Jazz.
