Hey my wonderful readers! Well, here's an update for you! Longest chapter so far! :3
Chapter 12-Moving In
The next picture was a picture of the trio in front of their apartment which was just near APU (Amity Park University). In the picture, Danny was in the middle of Sam and Tucker and was holding the camera to them while smiling. He was wearing a dark blue t-shirt, and the black jacket he wore on his first date with Sam, over it. He was wearing dark blue jeans and blue converse. He still wore his hair into its usual style. The only difference was it was longer, but not too long.
To his right, with an arm on his shoulder was Sam. She was smirking at the camera. Sam wore a purple tank top with a black blazer over it. She even rolled the sleeves up a little. She wore black jeans and her signature combat boots. Her hair was set up in its usual half ponytail but the only slight difference is that it was slightly longer.
To Danny's left with his right arm on Danny's shoulder was Tucker. He too was smiling at the camera. Tucker was wearing a yellow polo shirt and blue jeans. He still had his favorite red beret on his head and was still wearing his glasses.
Caption: Here we are. College students at last, moving in to our new home together.
Flashback- - -
"There. That's the last of it." Danny said as he finished putting the last box of his belongings unto his pick-up truck. (A/N: that was the car Danny got from his graduation, forgot to mention it to you guys. Sorry!) He then walked over to his parents who had been standing near the doorway of their house.
"So… I guess this is it guys." Danny said sheepishly. He didn't really know how to say goodbye without them getting too sad. Especially with Maddie having tears in her eyes. Danny was about to say something but was silenced with Maddie hugging him. He hugged back, enjoying the feeling of a mother hugging him for the last time.
"I wish I could always be with you, Danny. I'm going to miss you. WE are going to miss you." Maddie said as she broke away from Danny and brushing away his bangs from his face. Danny smiled at his mother before hugging her again and kissing her cheek. He then turned to his father who had a sad smile on his face.
"First, it had been Jazzy-pants who moved. Now, Danny-boy? They grow up so fast." Jack said hugging his son while ruffling up his hair. Danny laughed a little while hugging his dad back.
"I know. I'll miss you guys too." Danny said. His parents smiled.
"You take care of yourself. And your friends too. Especially Sam." His mother said winking at him making him blush.
"Will we see you sometime here, son? With you being Danny Phantom and protecting the town." Jack asked. Danny grinned and nodded.
"Sure dad. Don't worry. I'll visit you guys whenever I get the chance. Maybe I'll bring along Sam and Tucker too." Danny said smiling. Maddie smirked despite the tears in her eyes.
"Hmm, maybe when you visit us with Sam next time, I might see an engagement ring on her finger." Maddie said winking.
"Mom!" Danny whined while blushing. Jack laughed.
"I better get going. I still have to pick up Sam and Tucker." Danny said checking his watch. He then made his way towards the driver's side of the car.
"Bye mom, bye dad. See you guys. Love you!" Danny said smiling.
"Bye son, we love you too… send us pictures?" Jack said as he hugged his wife closer. Danny nodded in response and got inside the, started the engine and drove off. Honking the horn twice as a final goodbye to his parents. He drove all the way to Sam's house. Once he got there, he saw Sam hugging her parents and grandmother. He also saw three boxes that were similar to his on her porch. He quickly got out of the car and immediately helped Sam with the boxes.
"Good afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Manson, afternoon Ida!" Danny greeted cheerfully as he carried one of Sam's boxes. Ida smiled and greeted Danny back while Sam's parents just gave him a small reluctant smile. Sam just rolled her eyes as she and Danny loaded her stuff. When they were done, they both faced her parents.
"So, I guess this is it guys." Sam said to her parents with a small smile. In response, Jeremy and Pamela hugged their daughter tightly. Danny thought the look on Sam's face was priceless as she contemplated whether to hug her parents back. In the end, it resulted to her patting them awkwardly on their backs making Danny and Ida snort slightly. Once they broke apart, Sam saw tears in her mother's eyes.
"We're going to miss you Sammy-kins." Pamela said as she took out her handkerchief and wiped her eyes. Sam smiled.
"Come to think of it, I'm gonna miss you guys too." Sam said. After that, she turned to her grandma.
"I'm gonna miss you too grandma." Sam said as she hugged her grandmother. Ida smiled sadly as she stroked her hair.
"I'm gonna miss you to, sweetheart." Ida said. Sam broke away and gave each of her family members a kiss on their cheeks before approaching Danny and standing beside him.
"Daniel, we leave Samantha in your hands. Take care of her." Jeremy said as he hugged his wife. Danny smiled and hugged Sam closer.
"I will sir. Don't worry." Danny said making Sam smile. They walked towards the car and Sam waved to her parents and grandmother before climbing inside. Danny honked the horn liked he did to his parents as they drove over to Tucker's house.
"Did your parents do that to you too?" Sam asked suddenly.
"Yup. They even teased me that on my next visit, I should bring you." Danny said smiling.
"Why?" Sam asked confused. Danny just shrugged.
"Mom wanted to see if you'll already have an 'engagement ring' by then." Danny said blushing a little. Sam smiled and blushed but didn't say anything. When they reached Tucker's house, they saw him in the same situation they had been earlier. They got out of the car and approached Tucker.
"And don't forget to brush your teeth every night, sweetie. And no technology during exams." Mrs. Foley told her son. Danny and Sam laughed quietly at Tucker's expression. Mr. and Mrs. Foley soon noticed them and smiled at them.
"Here are your friends now Tucker. Go on and help them put your things in the car." Mr. Foley said.
"Yes dad." Tucker replied as he, Danny and Sam each took a box and carried it towards the car.
"So, no technology during exams huh?" Sam teased.
"Shut up, Sam." Tucker retorted making Sam smirk.
"Yeah, and you also need to brush your teeth every night." Danny added making Tucker groan. Once they're finished putting Tucker's stuff, they turned to face his parents.
"Goodbye, honey. We'll miss you. We love you, never forget that." Tucker's mother said as she and her husband hugged their only child. (I think… :3)
"I know. I'll miss you guys too. And I love you too, never forget that." Tucker said grinning as his parents let go of him making Sam and Danny snort. He glared at them before turning to wave at his parents and climbing in the car with Danny, on the driver's seat, Sam on the passenger's seat and Tucker on the back seat. Danny honked his horn again before driving off.
"I love you too, never forget that." Sam mimicked Tucker making Danny snicker. Tucker glared at her.
"You're just jealous." Tucker said smirking. Sam rolled her eyes.
"I had enough affection for one day, thank you very much. Anyway, hey Danny, how much longer till we're at the apartment?" Sam asked as she checked her watch.
"Probably a little longer. Let's say two hours or so. You guys could sleep if you wa—" Danny didn't even finish his sentence to hear Tucker snoring form the back seat. He and Sam laughed silently. Sam kissed Danny slightly on the cheek before making herself comfortable and dozing off. After two hours they finally reached their destination. Danny parked his car on the parking lot before he woke Sam up who in turn, is trying to wake Tucker up.
"TUCKER! Get your lazy butt up this instant!" Sam yelled making Tucker jump and hit his head on the car's ceiling.
"Jeez Sam, you sound like my mom!" Tucker complained rubbing his head making Sam' roll her eyes.
"Come on, we've gotta help Danny." Sam said as she and Tucker got out of the car and help move the boxes unto a box carrier (sorry! I don't know what it's called!) And proceeded inside.
"Good afternoon and welcome to Luxury Towers, how may I help you?" the receptionist asked once they got in.
"Room 304 please." Sam said. The receptionist took out a piece of paper.
"Name?" she asked. "Samantha Manson" Sam answered cringing at her full name.
"So, Miss Manson, you're the daughter of the buyers: Jeremy and Pamela Manson, am I correct?" she asked adjusting her glasses. Sam nodded.
"Well, I need you to sign this first." The receptionist said holding out the paper. Sam signed it and giving it back to her.
"Thank you, Miss Manson. Enjoy your new home." She said handing out the key which Sam took before proceeding towards the elevator with Danny and Tucker.
"Wow, this place is sweet." Tucker said leaning against the boxes.
"Tell me about it." Danny agreed. Sam was about to respond when the "Ding" of the elevator interrupted her. They got out, pulled the cart out and started finding their room.
"Here it is." Danny said. Sam quickly opened the locked door and proceeded inside and turning on the lights. The apartment was like the hotel they had stayed in during the vacation. It was modern styled with a nice living room, a kitchen and a small, dining area. Down the hall, stood four doors, with the door leading to the master's bedroom was at the very end of it. The other two doors were going to be Danny and Tucker's rooms. The other door was for the main bathroom. The whole apartment was even completely furnished.
"And to think that this only cost me a frilly, pink outfit and a girly attitude for one week." Sam commented making Danny and Tucker laugh in response.
"Come on! Let's check out our rooms!" Tucker said dashing off to the hall.
"Mom and dad said that this room is Danny's" Sam said pointing to the second to the last door on the right side of the hallway. "And that this room is Tucker's." Sam said pointing to the last door which was a little far from Danny's.
"Come on let's check Danny's room first." Tucker insisted.
Danny was shocked to see his. The room's color was baby blue with streaks of darker blue on it while the floor was white. It already had a light blue twin bed. Next to it was a white nightstand and a lamp on it. There was a white desk with a blue chair just right in front of the window. He also had a white and blue closet at the corner of the room. On the ceiling were different glow in the dark figures of planets and other heavenly bodies. On the right side of the room was a white door leading to the bathroom he and Tucker shared.
"Like your room? The planets were my idea." Sam said smiling proudly at her boyfriend's dazed expression. Danny gaped at her.
"You designed my room?" he asked. Sam just shrugged.
"My parents just asked me about what your old room looked like and I remembered you love for space so I added this kind of stuff." Sam said pointing to the figures on the ceiling. Danny smiled before kissing her on the lips. Tucker made gagging noises at this but the couple just ignored him.
"Thanks. I love it." Danny said grinning. "Come on; let's check out Tucker's room next." Danny added. The trio went out of Danny's room and into Tucker's. The said boy's mouth flew open as he saw it.
Tucker's room was color yellow with slight hints of light green and the floor was green. (Sorry, don't know what Tucker's favorite color is.) There was a light green twin bed and beside it, was a night stand with a lamp on top. There was a yellow and green dresser on the corner. There was also a desk similar to Danny's but was color yellow. On the left side of the room was a green door leading to the bathroom that he and Danny shared. There was also a special glass compartment for his precious gadgets.
"Cool huh?" Sam asked smirking at Tuckers expression.
"Wow, I'm impressed. There's even a special container for all those gadgets of yours." Danny said pointing to the glass closet." Tucker smiled and hugged Sam.
"Let's go look at my room." Sam said once she broke away from Tucker. The trio went out of Tucker's room and proceeded down the hall and stopped at Sam's door. The said girl closed her eyes and placed her hand on the doorknob.
"Please don't be pink, please don't be pink." Sam chanted. Danny and Tucker gave her funny looks.
"You mean, you have no idea what your room looks like?" Danny asked.
"Not a clue. My parents wanted it to be a surprise." Sam said as she turned the doorknob. The trio stepped in and Sam opened her eyes. The moment she did, her mouth flew open.
The room was black with dark purple stripes and was slightly larger than the other two rooms. There was a queen size black and purple bed with two nightstands on either side of it. The floor was black. There were two small bookcases to keep her books. One purple and the other black. There was a black desk with a purple chair on the corner. Her closet was larger than Danny's and Tucker's and was color dark purple. On the left side of the room was a black door leading her to her own bathroom. Along the black stripes of the room, scattered purple glow in the dark spiders.
"Wow… not bad." Sam said smiling at her new room.
"Yeah, it's so…. Well…. Sam!" Tucker said grinning.
"Come on, let's go unpack. After that, maybe we can watch a movie." Tucker said.
"What movie? Do you have any?" Sam asked as she approached her boxes and removed the tape.
"I brought some. How about: 'The Avengers'?" Tucker suggested as he opened one of his boxes and pulled out a package with the words 'The Avengers' on it.
"I think it sounds cool. I've always wanted to see the movie anyway." Danny said opening his boxes as well.
"How 'bout you Sam?" Tucker asked as he took out some of his clothes and proceeded towards his room.
"I guess we could watch it." Sam said taking out a medium sized bag filled with some of her books and making her way towards her bedroom.
"Awesome!" came Tucker's muffled reply. The trio continued to unpack and when they were done, they were exhausted and collapsed on the living room couch.
"I don't know about you guys, but I think I would take a shower." Sam said getting up and going in her room.
"I think I'll shower too. How 'bout you Danny?" Tucker asked getting up.
"I'll shower too after you." Danny said getting up and going in his room. He decided he would just wait there for Tucker to finish. As he was reading a book about space, he heard a voice.
"BABY YOU'RE A FIREWORK! COME ON SHOW THEM WHAT, YOU'RE WORTH!" Tucker sang much to Danny's horror. The boy groaned loudly as he buried his head under his pillow. But even as he did that, he still couldn't drown away Tucker's voice.
"MAKE THEM GO AH, AH, AH! AS THEY SHOOT ACROSS THE SKY, AY, AAAAYYYY!" Tucker sang/screamed. Danny groaned again and pounded the wall.
"Tucker! Will you keep it down?" Danny yelled.
"What's the matter, dude? Don't you like my beautiful voice?" Tucker teased before singing again. "BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. EVEN BRIGHTER THAN THE MOON, MOON, MOON!"
"Oh God!" Danny groaned.
End Flashback- - -
Danny laughed softly. This thing had gone on for as long as he can remember when they were still living together. Sometimes, he would even wake up to Tucker's singing early in the morning. Sam however, was enjoying it. Danny smiled before proceeding to the next page.
