Sam shifts nervously on her feet. Don't get her wrong. She absolutely loves Danny, Platonic-ly of course, but being up here with him 'talking' was scarier than fighter Skulker. Danny took her hand and lead her over to one of the benches on the roof.

"Sam..." He starts, looking down.

"Yeah yeah I know, you're worried about me, blah blah blah." She says. Usually there would be a sarcastic twinge, but all emotion has left her voice, like she was a recording.

"Yes and-"

"Yes and you want to help me but in order to help me I have to tell you whats wrong. I've heard this before." She states, still not meeting Danny's green eyes.

"So what if you've heard it before? It's the truth Sam, and I don't think you realize how much it kills me to see you like this." Danny said, before he could stop himself.

"Kills you? How so Danny?" She asks, getting a small edge in her voice but Danny lets it slide, he wasn't exactly being to polite either. Taking a deep breath, he began.

"Because I'm your best friend Sam. And I care about you. It kills me to see you push food around your plate like its not there. It kills me to see you give up in an argument, and to never start one you would usually go for. It kills me to see you cancel plans and run home after school everyday Sam. I see those, it didn't effect me then. I just thought you were having a bad day or something. But it does now." Danny sates, his voice going a little hard at the end, but not in a mean way, in a forceful way. Sam stays quiet, thinking about how she could react to this.

"It kills me too." She whispers, but Danny didn't hear. "I'm sorry, I guess I've just been tired lately or something." She says, leaning back but knitting her fingers together.

"'Tired lately,'" Danny says, using quotation makes with his fingers, " Tired lately would be you falling asleep in class or you just being mad at everyone for a couple days until you caught up on sleep. This is something else Sam." Danny says. Sam could feel tears forming but refused to let them show. She wasn't weak, she wasn't going to shed a single tear, never again.

"Ok! Fine! I'm tired of everything Danny! How's that?!" She asks, standing up, she wanted to get out, go somewhere away, but she had no where to go, and besides, if Danny wanted to catch her, it wouldn't take much effort. Danny just put his head in his hands.

"Sam, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to push you, I just want to help and I don't know any other way to help." Danny's said. Sam stopped. He did want to help, but she couldn't let him, he would flee, or at the least always treat her differently, see as as more weak, see her as something he needed to protect, not someone who could be independent and stand up for herself. The events she just had with Vlad didn't help.

"I'm sorry I didn't call you when Vlad came into the picture." She admitted, sitting back down. Danny looked up, as if he had forgotten about that.

"By the way, are you okay about that? Didn't get much of a chance to ask." He said.

"Eh, I got minor rope burn, nothing to big." She said with a hint of a smile. Danny smiled back, there was Sam, the Sam he knew and loved, the Sam he calls his best friend. Just smiling something off, making a joke about it. He hasn't seen that Sam in a while and her reappearing was a pleasure.

"And Danny?" She asks, startling him out of his thoughts. "Sorry for not being around much, I just... have a lot on my mind." She admitted. Danny scooted closer to her, crossed his leg and placed his hand on his knee as if he was saying 'Go on...'. Sam just shoved him a little. Danny laughed a little.

"Oh come on! We fight ghosts together! It's not like you can't talk to me." He said, sitting back correctly. Sam let a ghost of a smile appear on her lips, but it vanished quickly.

"I'm sorry, I just can't." She said, taking a moment to get up, trying to just pace. Danny was frustrated, not at Sam, but at the situation, he was mad Sam didn't trust him enough and frustrated that he couldn't get her to talk to him, one of her best friends! Danny reached up to grab her hand to prevent her from getting away.

"Sam wait." He said, but his emotions got the better of him and suddenly he went intangible, but only part of Sam did, only the hoodie. Danny could see straight through it and what he saw scared him to death. 'No, not Sam. Sam's to strong for that, she would never...' Danny thought, all the pieces clicking into place, while his world fell in broken parts around him. Sam looked down and saw what was going on, tears springing to her eyes ans she yanked her hand away from Danny's, this time running. She had no idea where she was going to go on this small roof but there HAD to be someplace, someplace where she could ditch Danny and be alone for a few minutes. Or Maybe Danny would catch on and leave her alone to wrap her head around this before he went and started asking questions. She found a large plaster wall, giving her some privacy and quickly hid behind it, letting the truth sink in.

"He knows." She said to herself, feeling more broken by the minute. "He knows." She repeated to herself, her voice cracking at the end.

"Sam!" Her name was called out to her left. Danny was panicking, His mind and whole world went blank and Sam was gone, but she had to be on this roof somewhere, she was just hiding... from him. He peeked around a plaster wall, and saw a sight her feared, Sam, with tears.
