So sorry for the month delay. I was waiting until I got 5 voters on my poll about if I should make Sam and Phantom's relationship official, and I finally did! 5 yeses and 0 nos!

Not gonna tell you what you're about to read, my friends :3

And this is just a filler chapter, okay? I'm currently planning the whole story out and I feel terribly sorry for not updating in a month, so I'm adding a fluffy filler chapter :3

Okay, lets move on, shall we?

I do not own Danny Phantom. (Or F.R.I.E.N.D.S)

A Phantom Story

Chapter 10

It was then Phantom shook his head, pulling away from my grasp. My smile turned into a frown, afraid of if he didn't love me back. Well, we did only meet like a few days before. But we talked on and on about each other! I think he knows who I am by now.

He stood up and faced his back to me. Disappointment overwhelmed me. I then knew for sure that he didn't like me back. I was too much of a freaky goth girl for him. Besides, he was a ghost. I was a human. They don't belong together. It just didn't work.

I stepped closer to him. I kept creeping closer to him by every little step. As I got a better view, I saw that he was covering his face into his hand like he was thinking of what to do. This made me take even bigger steps than before. I was very curious on what Phantom was thinking, and what he felt when he kissed me. If he felt the way I felt…

"Phantom?" I said. He turned around and looked at me and gave me a lovely smile, but I was still very curious. "What's wrong?" He sighed.

"It's just that… do you really love or like me… in that way? Are you ready to take our friendship to the next step?" he asked. I paused for a moment. Did I truly like or even love Phantom? Am I really ready to take our friendship to something more?

It was then that I realized that I didn't care. All I wanted to be around was Phantom. He was the one who comforted me during our talks on evenings, looking at the stars above us, talking and laughing about our life. He was the one who could truly understand me, like I truly understand him. So, was I ready? Was I really in love with Phantom?

Well, now I understand the saying "Love at first sight".

I raised my hand and placed it on his cheek. I smiled up at him, and he smiled back. I nodded timidly, hoping he somehow he felt the same way. And that was all answered when he leaned down and kissed me, and I immediately kissed back. He felt cold, but warm at the same time. I liked it. I liked it a lot, actually.

We then pulled away from each other and leaned our foreheads together. Once again, we both smiled. Phantom then looked up at the ceiling, and down at me. He smiled.

"Wanna talk on the roof for a bit before I go patrolling?" he asked. I tilted my head.

"When's that?"

"Around… sevenish, eightish," Phantom replied.

"But we talked around those times like last and the other night…"

"Well, I usually go patrolling around when you get home, but since you were kidnapped, my schedule was all messed up, so…" Phantom trailed off. I sighed.

"I'm sorry," I apologized.

"For what?"

"For ruining you schedule. Its my fault," I answered. He waved a hand at me.

"No need to be sorry. There are times when my schedule gets messed up, so, there is no reason to be sorry," Phantom assured. I smiled, and he smiled back. "So the roof?"

"Let's go!"

We sat there, staring at the shining stars upon us. The night was so mesmerizing; so beautiful to look at. Its weird how its dark already, and its only six o'clock. Phantom's hand had touched mine while being in a daze. I turned my head to him, and he smiled wide at me. I returned his smile. Even though his hands were cold, they were also warm by the comfort and love he's making me feel.

We were silent. We didn't speak. None of us knew what to say. What was there to say? 'Oh, I love you, will you please be my boyfriend?' or 'We kissed. Wanna kiss again?' Either way, it might get awkward. But this is just the beginning of the relationship… Yeah… Like that time in Friends where Ross and Rachel hook up, but at the beginning, things get awkward. But things work out at the end, and they come to love each other. We will come out that way, won't we?

I looked at Phantom. His eyes were glued onto me. I then realized that he's been staring at me this whole time. I smiled at him and he merely gave me a goofy grin. I started to lean in, ready for another kiss. He started to lean in too, but as soon as our lips were about to touch, there was a knock on the roof door.

"Sam, can I talk to you for a minute?" the voice on the other side of the door asked. I wide eyed. It was Aunt Susan.

"Go!" I whispered to Phantom. "Hide!" And soon, Phantom disappeared. I then sighed in relief. "Yeah, sure, come in." Aunt Susan opened the roof door that was located on the floor of the roof. Aunt Susan then came on, and walked over to me, and sat on the ground, right beside me. She copied my position with her arms hugging her knees to her chest as she looked at the stars. She sighed.

"I'm sorry about earlier," she said. "Its just that… I don't want you getting hurt. I promised your mother that if she wasn't there to care for you, then I would step in and take her place. Now its my job to protect you, and care for you," Aunt Susan then put my hair behind my ear as she looked at me.

"But I wasn't at Fenton Works! Maybe Valerie thought I was, but I wasn't! Don't you trust me?" I yelled at her. She was a little taken aback, but still had that peaceful look on her face.

"Yes I do, honey, but there are times that a parent does not know if their child is lying or not."

"I am not your child!" I spat out. Silence then filled the air between us. Aunt Susan's face looked broken at that point, and now I feel guilty. "Aunt Susan, I-" I was cut off by her.

"No," she said. "You're right. You're not my child. No teenager is." She started to walk back towards the door, leaned down to open it, and began climbing in. I then said something that stopped her.

"What about Toby?" I asked. I could see Aunt Susan close her eyes and bite her lip, trying not to cry of the sound of that name. She reopened them again and looked into my amethyst eyes.

"He's dead, Sammy. He's not on this Earth no more. He's gone…" And that's the last thing she said to me before she disappeared into the house, slamming the door shut.

I then turned around to see Phantom reappearing back into my sight. He walked towards me and hugged me. I gave him a hug back, and he squeezed gently.

"I have to go," Phantom whispered in my ear.

"What?" I said. "Why?"

"Its time to go patrolling…" he trailed off. I then pulled away from him and looked at the floor.

"Oh… Okay then…" It was then that he lifted my head up so I was looking at him. He leaned his forehead onto mine.

"I'll be back tomorrow, I promise," he said. He then kissed me on the lips and as cliché or cheesy as it sounds, fireworks were exploding in the background, and it felt like the world was spinning before me.

We then pulled apart. I nodded at him. "Go." He smiled and pecked my lips. He pulled away from me and was ready to fly away when I said one more thing. "Be careful… okay?" He nodded.

"I promise," he said. And with that, he disappeared into the darkness of the sky, making me miss him even more than when his lips parted from mine.

Was that sweet? :3

Hey, do you guys watch the show Friends? I freakin' love that show now, and my OTP is Ross and Rachel. I just watched the episode where they broke up, and that literally broke my heart, so it inspired me to write something fluffy and to add a similar concept between the relationship of Ross and Rachel :3

Anyway, did you like it? Want more? Well, more will be soon. Hopefully this weekend xD

So, what will happen next? What will Sam tell Valerie? What will Valerie tell Sam? Does everyone know Sam got kidnapped?

So many questions, so many answers…

Find out in the next chapter xD
