Danny/Sam: His thoughts
A little story exploring the feelings Danny would never admit to. Inspired while I was reading The ABC Murders, so language is quite formal etc
Standard disclaimer, i do not own characters, Butch Hartman does
She flushes slightly, I have no idea why, perhaps it is from the efforts of the fight. I look away. Then I look back. She draws me to her, I can't help it. I know her. I really know her. She is the person who is always there, always for me. The passion that flares in her eyes when she takes a cause or a protest, or when she eyes evil in the face, is unmistakable. She will not bow down to anybody else's rules if they are not right, she will protect the people who need it. I am caught up in my thoughts again and the air has become slightly thick with some sort of tension. I suggest some food, and we all go and relax.
She is as usual, nothing out of the ordinary in her behaviour, but I sense something below the surface that is not quite right. The way she looks down and away at times, so I instinctively do too, it drives me crazy not knowing, but I won't dare ask her. I find myself increasingly nervous around her, I have to be careful what I say, or it may give away what I really feel. I feel it stronger every day. I have never felt this way before, but I don't know what it is. The way I am attached to her, it's changing. I no longer feel content with 'just friends', it doesn't do us any justice. Oh God, I want more, don't I? Not in the way I have felt about anyone else before, but closer, more than just somebody to want me for my outward show, but the person inside too. She knows the person inside, and it feels so right that she should know all of the person inside. But I daren't tell her. It's all too huge to contemplate. If I tell her, we may become just like any other teenage couple in the history of the world, not likely to last, but nothing will change between us. She will always be by my side, that much I can read from those mysterious amethyst eyes, but it's too big to think about.
She laughs and mutters something inaudible. I manage to grab one word: Clueless.
