Genre: Romance/Angst
Rating: T
Summary: She had tried to fight, truly she did. But for Sam, enough was enough.
Her resolve was weakening.
It just took so much strength to keep her defences up, walls made of iron bricks, closing off her heart. She could start to feel the cracks forming in the protection that was in place as part of the bricks started crumbling off the hidden parts of her heart. Parts of her heart that only she herself knew, parts of her soul that couldn't be shared.
She just couldn't take it anymore. It seemed her walls weren't as strong as she once thought. Only because of certain person. Well, boy to put it in truthful words. As cliche as it was, her walls started coming down the day she met Danny. (Tucker too, but more in a friend way, not romantic way.)
Danny had slowly picked of parts of herself that never saw the light of sun. Parts of herself she swore never to reveal. But as much time as she took to deny the feelings that were making themselves present, she didn't notice how much she had changed because of Danny.
Whenever he gave her that look, the one full of happiness, passion and devotion mixed together, she couldn't help but succumb to her feelings. Enough was enough of trying to fight what was slowly driving her crazy. She needed to tell him how she felt, damn the consequences. She just couldn't take it anymore.
A/N: Kind of a short introspective piece on Sam's feelings for Danny.
