Sorry, slower update this week. But enjoy anyways!
Chapter Twenty-Eight
…
The clock seemed to go very slow this morning, or that's what Danny thought. He was so excited to see his family; he didn't really do anything but just to stare at the clock. Well for most of the time. But whenever he wanted the time to go faster, it would do the opposite.
It was about nine in the morning, and his family was coming over at about 11ish. He didn't know what to do for the next two hours; even some ghosts didn't even come out to play with him. Danny felt like he was going to have to suffer for two hours.
A knock interrupted his thoughts; his head snapped to the direction where the knock came from. A smile crept on Danny's face as he saw Ryan waving through the window. The halfa made a "come in" motion with his hand; Ryan saw the sign and walked in.
"I didn't think you would be up at this time," Ryan admitted, adding a wink.
Danny shrug, "I can't sleep in when I get to see my family again." He smiled as if it was a funny memory.
"Well, I can't blame you," The doctor said, grabbing a chair and pulling it over to the edge of Danny's bed. "I'd probably do the same thing if I were you." He took a seat and the chair gave out a soft moan.
The halfa got to a sitting position and sat leg crossed, "Yeah, it feels like Christmas morning to me, except I have to wait two hours." He frowned and gave out a soft pout.
That only made Ryan laugh, "You know, two hours isn't very long if you actually do something."
"Yeah, like what?" Danny asked, folding his arms. "I'm fresh out of ideas." He smirked.
"Well, you could go out for a walk," Ryan suggest.
"I did that this morning," The halfa said.
Ryan blinked as if he had been slapped and it took a moment to realize what just happened, "Wait, what?" He asked in disbelief.
"I went out for a walk already," Danny admitted, "I got up early and took a walk around town. It helped actually."
"You went out without permission?" Ryan cried, nearly falling out of his seat. "Why would you do that?"
"No, actually I talked to a lady," The teen said, "She said she would let you or Stewart know if you came by and asked where I would be."
Ryan seemed to calm down a bit, "Okay, well, uh… how about playing board games?" He asked.
"Not really my type, it makes me feel old," Danny said, "Except chess."
Ryan raised an eyebrow, "Chess? Why is that?" He asked, now interested.
"It's a long story, actually," Danny waved his hand to dismiss the conversation, "Moving on; how about just talking?" The teen suggested.
"Talking with whom?" Ryan asked stupidly.
Danny gave the doctor a "are you serious" look. It took Ryan a few seconds to know that he was talking about him; he made an 'o' with his mouth then made a clicking sound, "Gottcha." He said.
"Yeah," Danny said to try and keep the conversation going.
"Then what do you want to talk about?" Ryan asked.
"Well, um, about the day your boss kind of freaking out...?"
"What do you mean "about the day my boss kind of freaked out"?" Ryan asked.
"You said you guys didn't know why type of blood type I had," Danny said, "Remember?"
"Right," The doctor said sheepishly, "Well, we took some tests and they were different. So the reported it to my boss and he was just as confused as they were. So we weren't able to give some blood to you from other people, we were worried it would be mixed up and kill you."
"Well, do you want to know what blood type I have?" Danny asked.
"You know?"
"Yeah, I don't really have any different blood type," The halfa said. "I have O Negative, along with some ectoplasm."
"Would it still kill you if we gave you that type, with the ectoplasm, I mean?" Ryan asked.
"No, if it's fine at where it is right now, how will it hurt from later on?" Danny asked.
"I was just making sure,"
"Sure," Danny said with a hint of sarcasm.
The conversation didn't really carry on after that, Ryan said he had to go make some changes with something. Danny was disappointed that his only company, so far, had to leave. While he was trying to get rid of his boredom, he paced around the room thinking about stuff; he didn't know what kind of stuff, but something to at least entertain him.
That didn't last very long.
He could've gone for a flight to get his mind off of the time counting down, but he didn't feel like it at the moment. All he wanted was to see his family.
Since it was so quiet in the room, the clock did indeed echo in the room. Danny sighed in frustration as he saw that he had an hour and thirty minutes left. Finally giving up, he plopped onto his bed and stared at the ceiling.
He was happy when a knock entered the silence; almost right away, Danny got up and looked to see who it was.
It was Ryan, Stewart, and a couple of their friends, or so it seemed.
To make the boredom not so bad, he told them they could come on in. The door didn't hesitate to stay close and the doctors piled in. There were about six, seven people in the room.
Danny smiled warmly at them and Ryan walked up to the halfa. "They liked your story telling," Ryan said calmly, "And since, well, you're leaving today, which is a total bummer, they would like one more story."
"I will miss you guys for sure," Danny said with a smile, "Sure, anything to get rid of the boredom. What kind of story?"
Ryan winked and said in a soft whisper, "Your story."
Danny raised an eyebrow, "Oh really?" He smirked, "Okay then."
Ryan announced that Danny was going to tell them a story; the doctors were excited to listen to the teen's story telling. They shot him encouraging smiles and took a seat that they had brought in with them. The halfa took a seat on his bed with the doctors surrounding his bed; Ryan and Stewart decided to stay and listen. They do only have about an hour with him before he leaves anyways.
…
The story seemed to go superfast, and to Danny's surprise, an hour had gone by. He continued the story and would glanced up at the clock every once in a while. A nurse came in and told Danny that his family was coming over, the halfa was full of excitement that he, somehow, almost fell off of his bed.
Danny was more upbeat with his story since he was very excited to see his family again; because he added so much to his story, it had a lot of suspense. Here and there the doctors would lean forward as if they would miss a very important detail then would lean back when something would happen.
Soon the halfa become so into his story he almost didn't hear the door open and a lady stood at the door way. But it was a big enough distraction to pull him out of the story. His head whirled towards the door way as a women's voice interupped the story.
"Danny, you have visitors," She said with a warm smile.
The teen nearly felt his skip a beat; there they were his family, his friends, and the people he wanted to see so badly after these long months of being in the hospital.
He was almost speechless; the words were stuck in his throat from all the excitement swelling inside of him, screaming to let it out. Finally he got his voice to work. "Mom, Dad, Jazz…, Tucker, Sam!" He cried happily.
The burst of excitement started to work on his legs and forced him out of bed. He jumped off and hugged his family first, then his buddy, and… Sam. He blushed madly when he found out that he was holding her hands. She also seemed to blush as well; they both quickly let go and Tucker mouthed "lovebirds". Sam saw what it said and stomped on his foot, the techno-geek teen let out a pained yelp.
"Danny-boy!" Jack cried in his cheerful tone of voice.
Danny hugged his father again along with "I missed you too". He did another round of hugs with his family and friends again. He swore he could do this all day long if he wanted to.
By the time he was done giving hugs, the whole room was empty, except the two doctors that took care of him after all of these months. They waited patiently on their chairs that they claimed, talking softly to each other.
Danny took a step back, "You have no idea how much I missed you." He said with a smile. Was it just his imagination, or did Maddie sigh in relief. The halfa shook his head and turned to face the two doctors.
"Ryan, Stewart," Danny said, disturbing their conversation by accident, "This is my family; my dad, mom, and Jazz," He pointed at them as he said their names and did the same with his friends. He faced his family and friends, "This is Ryan and Stewart."
Ryan put out his hand to shake with Maddie's, "It's a pleasure to meet you," He said with a warm smile.
Maddie took out to shake as well; "Likewise," She flashed him a smile. "This is my husband, Jack."
Ryan shook his hand saying that it was nice to meet him as well; Jack did the same also, without any ghost stuff in his sentence. After Ryan was done, Stewart shook their hands as well.
"You have a great son, Mrs and Mr. Fenton," Ryan said.
"That's was I was told," Maddie said.
"Well, your son defiantly was a great kid to be around," Ryan said, "I'm gonna miss him when he leaves."
Danny pat him on the back, "Ah, don't worry Ryan, I'll always come back to visit you." He gave him a sly smile, "And it will be fun, right?"
Ryan rolled his eyes, "Oh, yes, lots of fun." He said sarcastically.
Danny just laughed.
Sam reached into her pocket and pulled out something; she held it up to give it to Danny, "It's for you; somehow, I thought you would like these." She said.
The halfa stared sat the item that was in her hand, "Skittles?" He asked. "That's kind of scary Sam."
Not getting the inside joke, Sam looked at with confusion. "What?" She asked.
Not a second later, everyone heard some chuckling. They all looked up at the two doctors; quickly they stopped their laughing and gave them a serious face, "Sorry." Ryan said clearing his throat. But he couldn't help it, he grinned then started laughing, Stewart soon joined him.
Danny took the Skittles and smiled, "Thanks, Sam." And he couldn't help to join the laughter.
