It's been forever! Hi everyone! I've had the worst thanks giving in my life... but your reviews, supports, and threats with cake shaped as a knife (black angel in love) has made me want to post this. When I have a great day, I think I'll try writing my first lemon. For now, I'll make drama! I hope you all like it! Enjoy!

Dash opened the door and threw Danny on his bed lovingly, breathing heavily from their encounter with Kwan in the park.

"He… he won't tell anyone… right?" Danny asked with a scared face.

Dash leaned into him and kissed his forehead slightly. "Don't worry. He Kwan may have some questions, but I'll explain us to him and he might understand."

Danny smiled a little and leaned into Dash's chest seductively. "So, our date ended… now what do you want to do with me?"

Dash smirked and went under Danny's shirt to brush his nipple slightly, making the raven haired boy gasp for breath. "You might be taking this a little too fast…" Dash warned.

"I lost you for seven years… and I did fall i-in love with you." He replied back.

Dash finally locked their lips together and silenced him, letting passion overtake them. Tongues clashed and voices stifled in the dark as the slender and bulky bodies moved closer. Just as Dash was about to make a more daring move, his window exploded in a burst of green light. Danny went invisible, leaving Dash to sprawl out of the bed in an innocent pose as Valerie flew in through the hole with her mask off and a ghost tracker in her hand.

"Dash, have you seen the evil, good-for-nothing, low life scum Phantom?" she asked with rage coating her voice.

Dash put on an innocent smile and hummed a little, still giddy from the close contact he had with the said low life scum. "No, no ghost here."

Valerie narrowed her eyes, wondering why he was so happy, before spouting some more insults and flying off. When the cost was clear, Danny turned visible again and walked up to the damage.

"Imagine if she found me…" he muttered with his hand to his head.

"Well you are popular with the ghost hunters these days… I mean your protecting the town and my friends are hunting you! Your way better than them!" Dash said.

Danny blushed and rubbed the back of his neck with his hand. "Well, I mean it's just something I wanted to do when I got my powers and…" Dash silenced him with another kiss and looked lovingly into his blue eyes. "You used to do that when we talked. It was cute back then and it still is now."

Danny almost let his eyes close and let themselves drift back into that bliss they had earlier.

Almost.

Reality hit Danny like a wave of nausea. Dash was the leader of the ghost hunters. His friends hated his ghost side and would probably kill him. Dash's reputation could be at risk if he was found hanging out with a ghost (well he is only half ghost) and they could be split apart. This was almost like that book he had read in Mr. Lancer's class.

'What was it? Hamlet? No… Oh… Romeo and Juliet… accept more forbidden… and gay…' he thought bitterly.

Danny pushed Dash's body away with all he had and backed away. "Dash… I'm sorry. We can't be together. You hate me at school, everyone hates my ghost half. If they find out, you might lose everything. I don't want that to happen. Maybe we should stay as friends…"

The pain in his chest was growing at the words he didn't mean to say. With unshed tears, Danny turned into his ghost half and jumped out of the hole in his wall with tears in his eyes. "I'll still love you though…" he said in a soft whisper before flying out of sight.

Dash stood at the hole and watched with wide eyes. He felt awful. He had lost the only joy to him in his life. Nothing mattered to him unless Danny was with him. Danny could have been completely dead and he would still love him. Sadly he had forgotten to mention that, and for his actions he had lost the only person he had ever truly loved. Empty inside, Dash made his way downstairs with his head full of pain and his heart crushed like led. What both boys didn't know though was that through the gaping hole, the whole scene was visible to whoever was walking by, from Valerie to Danny flying away, and Kwan had seen everything with wide eyes and confusion filling him on the new information.

"I have to talk to Dash later…" he said to himself as he headed home with his hands in his pockets and the autum wind hitting his back with a harsh sting.

Dash put on his hazmat suit and looked at himself in the mirror with a small frown on his face before smiling slighlty at an old memory. 'Orange… that was Danny's color… but he looks good in black and white too.'

It had been three weeks since he had seen Danny. School was let out for the holidays, and the week went by slowly. Saturday night was the night he was supposed to go ghost hunting with his friends. Now he didn't want to hunt ghost anymore. It reminded him of why he lost the one he loved. As he headed out the door, a small frame slammed into him. Expecting a nerd, Dash put on his signature scowl and looked down at the geek who ran into him. When he saw it was Tucker with a worried face, the scowl disappeared to be replaced with an awkward stare.

"What?" he asked as he tried to push the nerd out of his way.

"I can't find Danny… I don't know what to do…" he said slowly as he pushed back.

Dash stopped his shoving and felt his blood freeze.

'No… please dear God no…'

Instantly assuming the worse, he ran out of the doorway and down the street to the park where he was supposed to meet his team, with Tucker following behind in a steady jog. When he arrived, he saw a sight that haunted his dreams and made his blood thaw into a raging fire. Except for Kwan, Valerie, Star, and Paulina all had their weapons blazing and pointed to an unconscious familiar ghost. His white hair was stained with fresh ectoplasm, his right knee was bent at a bad angle, his eyes were closed and his body limp against the tree.

"Alright girls, you know Mr. Baxter's orders. Kill the ghost boy and save the town." Valerie instructed.

"Danny!" Dash screamed as he ran towards the fallen hero with his guns charged and eyes narrowed with hate. Jumping in between them with his ecto guns pointed at his team mates, he let out a sinister growl and a voice that made them take a step back in fear of getting killed.

"Who did this to him?" he said, his gaze destroying the serious face of Valerie Grey. Dash didnt' care what came next. He would protect Danny even if he lost everything.

It's a cliffy... bummer... I dont' have the time to finish it for now. I really hope no one kills me... but thanks for being patient! Well... until next time,

Chow! : )
