Hi, I've realised why I've been having trouble with this story and A Matter of Time. It's because I have too many stories being written all at once, so I've done some planning an I plan to focus on mainly this story out of the three (Love Triangle, this one, A Matter of Time) and as soon as this one is completed, I'll be working on A Matter of Time if I get any ideas that is XD

Anyway, sorry if I'm speeding up things too fast in this chapter ^^;

Two years had passed; Danny and Sam were still boyfriend and girlfriend. There had been no trouble from any of those dark shadows…yet.

They had the most devious plan they could come up with. They were planning to kidnap Sam right before Danny kisses his bride at their wedding. They wanted this to be sooner, so they had decided to push things even closer between the couple.

Danny, Sam and Tucker had finally graduated; Sam was waiting for that special moment when she would become Danny's fiancée again.

Danny too was thinking about this, was this whole dark shadows thing his fault? He was in fact the one that proposed to her way too early in life but why? He thought. Why would he ask for monogamy that early in life? But those were only minor confusions running through his mind. The main goal now was to have a perfect proposal place for her, maybe a date at a restaurant perhaps?

Sam was ready to move out and head for college as well as a house of her own.

Danny wanted to leave as much as Sam did, but his mum just couldn't let go of her youngest child.

Tucker was already out of the house and at college; he was planning to get a career in Computing and IT. He had only 3 years to study on this before he could get this job.

While Danny was packing his stuff once again (his mum kept on unpacking it), he received a phone call from his girlfriend Sam.

"Hey Sam, what's up?"

"I've finally moved out!"

"Lucky, mum keeps on unpacking my stuff because she can't let go."

Sam giggled over the phone, and then Maddie came into the room to see Danny's stuff inside the suitcase again.

"Danny, can I fix up your suitcase? I think it's broken." She asked at a fast pace.

"No mum, I have to get out of here so I can find my own house."

"But dear, you can't afford it!"

Sam thought of an idea while Danny was arguing with his mother.

"Danny, I've got an idea. How about you just stay with me until you can afford your own house?"

That would be a perfect way to get Danny's marriage skills working, Sam thought happily.

Maddie was still reluctant to let her son go, but she didn't want to upset Sam. She was going to be a daughter-in-law sooner or later.

She sighed. "Okay Danny, you can stay with Sam."

"Really mum?" Danny asked sounding glad.

Maddie looked down and frowned. "I suppose so."

Danny dropped the phone onto the bed and gave his mum a tight loving hug. Maddie was shocked at her son's behaviour but then squeezed her little boy tight and almost couldn't let go when Danny was ready to go.

"Mum, I have to go."

Danny pulled out a little more and then Maddie finally let go of her boy. Jack was bawling his eyes out. Maddie and Jack ran back inside then closed the door to hide away their tears.

"Our children have finally grown up!"

"I know!" Jack cried.

They shared a hug I sadness as the thoughts of them being alone tortured them.

Danny was driving down the street towards Sam's house when he suddenly saw a dark shadow. He immediately pressed his foot on the brakes and looked up at it. The dark shadow was floating there, just floating still in mid air and staring at him.

"YOU'RE DOOMED DANNY PHANTOM."

Danny rolled down his window. "What? I didn't hear that."

"YOU'RE DOOMED YOU IDIOT!"

"Hey!"

Danny parked the car then transformed.

"I am not an idiot!" he claimed as he flew up to the dark shadow.

"QUIET YOU SELFISH HYBRID. YOU WERE DOOMED FROM THE START."

The dark shadow let out an evil laugh then shone brightly in front of him and sent out a few rays at Danny. He didn't feel anything strange or painful though so when the dark shadow disappeared, he went back down into his car and transformed back into his human form.

"Man that was weird."

He didn't know that deep down inside him, that blast of energy affected his hormone levels and the control centre of his brain. They were taking affect but Danny still felt the same. These affects would take much more in later that night.

Later on, he had finally arrived at Sam's house. His stuff was already inside and they were both happily out the back sitting on a bench while admiring the view.

"This is more like it."

"I just can't wait for that special moment." Sam sighed in happiness.

Danny looked wide-eyed as if he had completely forgotten about the whole proposal thing he's meant to be doing. How is he supposed to surprise her? He thought.

"Me too."

"But I thought you were thinking about it." Sam claimed.

"I am, just not right now. Let's just enjoy the view until we starve."

Sam laughed, she always loved Danny's jokes but the hunger wasn't what she was worried about at that moment, she wanted a commitment but she wanted to know when Danny was going to propose to her again.

The hormones were starting to take effect. When Danny dozed off for a moment, his hand was rubbing Sam's thigh in a smooth motion. Sam felt a little uncomfortable as a new sort of pleasure was felt. She tried to pull down her fully black skirt down a little further but then Danny's hand crawled underneath it.

"Danny! What are you doing!?"

This startled Danny awake, he snorted while his eyes came into focus with a furious girlfriend.

"What? What am I-"

Danny looked down at where his hand was, he immediately removed it from her thigh and gasped.

"Just what do you think you were doing?"

"I-wait what? I didn't-"

Sam stood up and clenched her fists while glaring at her boyfriend

"You're planning to go to third base with me now?"

Danny blushed. "Well we're both adults and all but I wouldn't-"

Sam gently face palmed and sighed in an annoyed tone. "Look Danny, you can do it with me. Just not right now, you just moved in with me! And you haven't even proposed to me yet!"

"I'm trying to find the right moment!"

"Well hurry up!"

Sam stormed off inside while closing the sliding door with a hard push. Danny heard the soft slam of it shutting; he then looked down at his hand and felt confused and worried.

"How did my hand get there? I didn't have a dream about Sam at all. As a matter of fact, it was just...All black."

He sniffed his hand, it smelt normal to him. He went inside and checked in the mirror of the spare bedroom he was sleeping in. He looked his normal self with his slightly long hair and small muscles.

He later went downstairs with that strange feeling in his gut and in his mind, he wanted to sit down on the couch but his body lead him to Sam who was preparing a potato salad.

"Hey Danny, did you want to help?" She asked, forgetting what happened earlier.

"Um sure, what else are you preparing?"

"Well, I've got some lettuce over here that needs chopping up."

"Okay. Oh, how's college going for you?"

"Great. I have another 4 years until I get my diploma for child studies."

"Child studies? I thought you wanted to be a journalist?"

"I changed my mind. What are you planning to be? Still want to be an astronaut?"

"Yep, got another 5 years on that one." Danny replied while looking for a knife.

"5? Wow."

"Yeah, hey where are the knives?"

"Over there next to the sink." She pointed out.

"Thanks."

So, there's something in Danny's system that's pushing him closer to Sam to make the commitment happen. I wonder how fast this will occur?
