Cupid's Wrath
Chapter 8: She's NOT my girlfriend
Ember was beaming as she stood in front of her full body mirror as she applied the last of her lipstick.
"Perfect…"Ember said as she double checked her outfit.
She was wearing a purple mini dress with black boots, a matching belt and she was wearing her hair down. Needless to say…she looked hot.
"Let's just hope he thinks so…"Ember thought as she made her way to the living room as she waited for her boyfriend to pick her up. She wanted to look her best since this was the first Valentine's Day with her new man and she wanted to make it count.
He said he was going to pick her up at 6 and it was already 5:59 pm. After about a minute, a knock was heard on the door and Ember rolled her eyes as she grinned.
She opened the door to see Danny in his ghost form but he was wearing a black jacket over a white shirt, black pants and sneakers, a more casual version of his iconic jumpsuit.
"Right on time…as always…"Ember said in a casual voice.
"Is that a crime?...'Danny asked in a playful tone.
"Nope…"Ember said grinning to her man.
"Happy Valentine's day baby…"Danny said as he gave her a quick kiss which she gladly returned.
"Happy Valentine's day…"Ember said to her boyfriend.
"For you my lady…"The handsome ghost teen said as he presented her a bouquet of white roses.
"Oh Danny….There beautiful…"Ember said admiring the flowers.
"Just like you…"Danny said which made Ember roll her eyes at his cheesiness but the growing smile on her face betrayed her.
The two ghosts soon left and found their way to the human world. Danny promised to give her a nice surprise and she was looking forward to it.
"So what's this surprise you have planned?...'Ember asked to her boyfriend.
"If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise now would it?..."Danny said in a teasing tone to his pouting girlfriend.
"Your no fun…"Ember said in a fake upset voice.
"But you love me anyway…" Danny said in a singsong voice.
They soon found themselves at a Cliff side and Ember's eyes widen as she saw a candlelight table. There was a wonderful view of the ocean and the sun was beginning to set, making it look like a truly breathtaking sight.
"Danny, did you do this?...'Ember asked to him.
"Yep, I found this place while I was flying and the view is incredible, I thought it make a great setting…"Danny explained to the azure haired diva.
"You like it?..."Danny asked.
"I love it, it's beautiful…"Ember said honestly as she soon found herself enjoying a romantic dinner for two with her boyfriend in an amazing setting. They soon found themselves enjoying dinner, playfully flirting and talking about life…and after-life in general.
"I still can't believe you did that to Technus!...Ember said giggling as her man was telling her stories about his latest fights.
"It serves him right for interruption my beauty sleep…Danny said cheekily to the ghostly pop princess.
"I still can't believe you're the one who gave him that virus, he's still locking himself in his realm…'Ember said in between her giggles.
"At least I found a use for that SPAM in my phone…"Danny said chuckling.
After calming down, Ember's hand soon found itself on top of Danny's who noticed right away. The two ghosts were gazing at each other, feeling very much content in the moment.
"Ember…I have a present for you…"Danny said to his girlfriend. He soon pulled out a small rectangular box from behind his back.
"Really Danny, the flowers and the romantic candlelit dinner, your starting to spoil me …"Ember teased to her white haired boyfriend.
"I can't help it…its fun…"Danny said as he placed the present in front of her
"What is it?..."Ember asked excitedly
"Open it and find out…"Danny teased and tried not to laugh as he saw his girlfriend tearing open the present like a child on Christmas morning.
Ember's eyes widen as she finally saw the contents, it was a gold pendent with a musical note engraved in it. It was simple but beautiful at the same time.
"Oh Danny…You shouldn't have…'Ember said admiring the beautiful necklace.
"I wanted to…I saw it and I thought about you…"Danny said as he helped place it on her neck.
"It's wonderful…'Ember said, but she wasn't referring to the piece of jewelry.
She was thinking about their entire relationship together, though they started out as enemies, Ember finally found the man of her dreams in the half ghost teen hero. Danny was a very sweet boyfriend, he was attentive, caring, affectionate and very honest. Though they had arguments and while they couldn't see each other as much as they liked to due to their careers and the fact that they literally lived in different worlds, they managed to make it work out.
Danny wasn't a jerk who only wanted to score with her, he genuinely respected and cared about her, he treated her like she was his most precious treasure and she gladly returned the favor.
Ember was staring at her man who was looking at her with complete adoration. Ember could almost tear up…for the first time ever, she wasn't alone on Valentine's Day, she was finally spending the day of love with someone who actually loved her.
It was just wonderful.
"I love you Ember…"She heard him say in a warm voice that made her heart melt.
"I love you too Danny…"Ember said before she kissed him, which he quickly reciprocated.
Soon a white aura surrounded them and the romantic scenery was gone, leaving only Ember and Danny alone with only their love.
Ember soon jolted awake, her face was now bright red as she panted and stared around to realize she was in her realm with no Danny, no romantic dinner and no kiss between them.
'A dream…Now I can't find solace in my sleep…'Ember thought in dismay.
What's worse was that she really enjoyed that dream…and that was a problem. She could feel that her problem was getting worse and worse. She didn't even have the strength to fight it anymore. She has fallen in love with Danny and she wanted him to love her as well…the problem was that he didn't and it was going to end badly for her.
"I gotta stop this…I'm going to end up going crazy from all of this…I gotta talk to him today…."Ember said determined as she quickly glanced at her clock only to be shocked.
It was 7:49am, Monday morning. Which meant she's been asleep for well over a day.
"What?!..."Ember yelped as she checked her clock and calendar once more. It was February 13, which means Valentine's day was tomorrow.
"W-Wait…Why do I care if it's tomorrow…It's just a stupid holiday anyway…I gotta talk to Danny and see if I can get over this stupid crush or whatever this is…'Ember groaned as she got out of bed and did her daily business, though for reasons she still didn't understand, she decided to be careful with her make up today and even wore the fancy perfume Kitty gave her for her Christmas. Once finish, she made her way to the door, only to stop and remember the events from yesterday.
"If I go out there…Every ghost within 100 miles will see me and start bothering me about the kiss…"Ember moaned and knew what she had to do. She quickly used teleportation and found herself in the human world, and facing another bad headache.
"Ugg….I really hate this power…'Ember muttered as she searched for the white haired object of her desire in order to shower him with her affect-….I- I mean…get to the bottom of what was going on between them and figure out how to stop it.
As Danny predicted, it didn't take long for the paparazzi to start hounding him about his supposed romance with Ember Mclain. He was on his way to school and they soon found him and began with their annoying questions.
"Danny! Is it true you and Ms. Mclain are an item now?..."One reporter said to the annoyed teenage hero.
"For the 100th time no! She's NOT my girlfriend…."Danny growled at the idiot reporter.
"Then how do you explain the kiss?...'Another reporter asked.
"Ember's just acting strange is all!..."Danny shouted and finally had enough, using invisibility, he took off and finally managed to lose his stalkers…er…press.
He soon found himself at Casper High and he braced himself for the horror that would soon come: his fans.
"DANNY! Are you really dating Ember Mclain?! That's so awesome!..."Some freshman asked in an excited voice.
"I can see why, she's probably the hottest girl ever!..."Some short junior agreed.
"We are not dating! She's just acting crazy!..."Danny shouted while his fellow students/fans were getting more excited.
"Please tell us it isn't so Danny?!..."Some fangirl cried which made Danny rolled his eyes.
"I just said we're not together! Ember Mclain is NOT my girlfriend…"Danny shouted before turning invisible, outraging the curious fanboys and jealous, hysterical fangirls.
"Gulliver travels! What are you all still doing in the hall! Get to class on the double!...'Lancer shouted and soon the crazed teen paparazzi left in order to avoid detention.
"Thank you Lancer….Ðanny thought as he became visible once more but was at least happy every one of his fans were out of his hair for the time being.
'Danny!..."A high pitch, accented voice shouted and Danny cursed for not still being invisible
Well…almost all of his fans. Reluctantly, Danny turned around to see an outraged Paulin Sanchez before him, an ugly scowl marring her superficially beautiful face.
"You're….You're not actually dating that ghost girl…are you?..."Paulina asked in a hesitant voice which made Danny roll his eyes.
"I'm going to tell you what I told the paparazzi, my parents and every person in Amity Park this morning alone: No, I am not dating Ember Mclain…I don't know why she kissed me yesterday but it was totally one-sided and no, it doesn't mean I'll be your Valentine instead…'Danny said once he saw that sneaky smile form on Paulina's face only to see it vanish once he gave his not-so-subtle rejection.
'WHAT?!..."Paulina screeched.
"You heard me…'Danny said only to groan when he saw that familiar look on Paulina's face: her flirtatious, "I always get what I want" face that have conquered almost every man she's deemed worthy…He was the only exception.
'Come on ghost boy….Tomorrow is Valentine's day and I just want to spend time with the man of my dreams…Please, be my Valentine…"Paulina said in the sweetest voice she could muster, using the hottest, most seductive look in her eyes and tried to make herself as irresistible as possible.
Any other man would have crumbled before her…but he wasn't "every other man"…He knew that while beautiful on the outside, there was absolutely nothing desirable about her once you got past the pretty face and perfect rack.
"I'm sorry but my answer is still no, Paulina…"Danny said in a cold tone that could almost be linked to his ice powers. He noticed the flirty look on Paulina's face was gone now, replaced with a confused and outright angry one.
"Are you….Are you really turning me down?...'Paulina said slowly, her anger radiating quite clearly.
"YES!..."Danny practically shouted to the vain beauty queen. Why was she so slow on the update that he was not interested in her anymore!
"I'm not dating right now and I am not going to celebrate Valentine's day tomorrow!..."Danny shouted to the popular girl who was shocked at his answer.
"What!? Who willingly chooses to be alone on Valentine's Day?!..."Paulina demanded in a very confused voice. She couldn't believe he was choosing to ignore the most romantic day of the year, even the nerds at leasttried to find dates for the day of love.
"I do, I refuse to spend this stupid holiday with a phony, stuck up fan girl that can't take a hint…'Danny said stubbornly.
"Ghost boy, you're going to spend Valentine's day with me!..."Paulina said as she gripped his arm with her perfectly manicured nails. Danny wasted no time using intangibility to escape her grasp.
"This is all because of that bitch Ember!...'Paulina accused and Danny tried not to throttle her for driving him insane.
"I don't need Ember to reject you Paulina…'Danny hissed at the annoying, uppity girl and wondered why he once liked her…oh yeah, hormones.
""FYI Paulina, you're not as irresistible as you think you are and as much as I don't like Ember that way…and while we are not dating, I rather be stuck on Valentine's day with her than with you…'Danny hissed before he left the humiliated and fuming beauty queen alone as he went on his way to class, sure he was late but his teacher would probably think a ghost or something equally as annoying delayed him.
He never heard these words escape from her mouth.
"Ghost boy….Who said you even have a choice?...'Paulina hissed before she left that spot and went to class to avoid attention, but her thoughts remained on her wayward beloved and his cruel words.
She was going to make him regret saying those cruel words to her and she was going to make him her Valentine no matter what.
Later that day, during lunch time, Sam Manson was busy looking for her friend and ex-boyfriend. Yesterday she tried to find him and talk about the suppose relationship between him and Ember but he wasn't home, Dani and Jazz said he went out to blow some steam and Sam was frustrated that she had to wait even longer.
But now it was lunch time and she knew she had to find Danny and talk to him, according to the various interviews, he was insisting that he and Ember were not an item and Sam was pleased, no matter what, Danny never lied to the press about this sorta stuff…but it still left the topic that apparently Ember kissed Danny and that was confusing her.
They were supposed to be enemies….How did she suddenly go from trying to kill him to suddenly kissing him? It didn't make any sense!
'Then again, neither did the thing with Valerie…"Sam thought as she recalled the only other real woman in Danny's life. Sam searched all of Danny's school time hiding places that only she, Tucker, Jazz and even Valerie knew. But she soon found him on the roof brooding to himself.
"Hey…'Sam said to the half ghost boy who looked tired.
"Hey…"Was all he said.
"I guess you saw the news…"Danny muttered and Sam now knew for sure whatever happened was one-sided, but it didn't make it any less confusing.
"Yeah…"Sam said slowly.
"I didn't kiss her, she kissed me and I don't know why!...'Danny insisted.
"Relax Danny…I believe you…"Sam said calmly, feeling a weird sort of relief and guilt. Relief that apparently she was wrong about him already moving on….and guilt for feeling relieved about that. She was his friend…she was supposed to be happy if he found someone who made him happy…That was how it was supposed to go.
"Come on Manson…He's down and you guys are friends…Start acting like it!...'Sam hissed internally as she tried to console her exhausted and confused friend.
"Danny-…'Sam started only for Danny to shake his head.
"I'm just so confused right now…"Danny muttered to the Goth girl.
"I can imagine…'Sam said.
"I just can't believe it, she kissed me and I can't even bring myself to hate it as much as I should…"Danny groaned…surprising Sam.
'Wait...You liked it that Ember kissed you?...'Sam yelped, only to retract and berate herself for that tone. She was supposed to be a consoling friend right now, not an accusing ex-girlfriend!
"I-I…What I mean is…really, you liked that she kissed you?...'Sam asked in a more pleasant voice but Danny knew what she was doing…that she was at least trying to be a friend right now.
"As much as I don't want to admit it…Yeah, it wasn't all that bad…"Danny said as he recalled Ember's soft purple lips and her passionate movements… Even Sam was never so spontaneous with him, she always was a bit reserved even when they were alone.
Danny groaned again, here he was hiding on a roof to avoid his annoying fans, he had a, obnoxious cheerleader and a bizarre ghostly singer after him and his ex-girlfriend/best friend was trying not to let the green eyed monster out as she tried to cheer him up.
"I'm pretty sure I'm the only guy facing this kind of situation…'Danny thought sarcastically.
Sam tried to fight down the bitter taste she had when she heard that, no girl liked hearing their ex say they enjoyed kissing another woman…but she didn't want to be the ex-girlfriend he didn't need right now…she wanted to be the friend he needed right now.
"Do you like her?...'Sam asked suddenly to the half ghost boy who blinked at the question.
"I don't know…and I know I don't want to…This is just too confusing and the drama and pressure of this Valentine's day is making it worse, everyone is demanding that I make them my Valentine but I don't want to!...'Danny shouted.
"Who cares what they say! Danny, it's your choice on how you spend your holiday, no one can force you to be their date if you don't want to…."Sam said to the dark haired boy.
"I know your right but it's so annoying and the fact that this is going to keep happening is making it worse…"Danny said.
"As I said, who cares, there just a bunch of star struck losers who are so bored with their lives that they have to obsess over yours….They're not worth it…."Sam said honestly.
It was inevitable that at one point hewill want another woman in his life, maybe not right now but when that happens…She still wanted to be in the picture with him as his friend. She wanted to be sure that whoever he replaces her with wasn't some spoiled, Paulina clone that didn't deserve him and would make him forget about their friendship.
Maybe then….She'll let herself find happiness with another once more.
"Just don't let them pressure you…If you're going to date someone…just do it because you want to…not because they want you too…"Sam said to her friend who finally let out a smile.
"Thank Sam, I needed that…"Danny said in a truly grateful tone as he gave her a platonic hug.
"What are friends for…"Sam said honestly to her ex-…I mean her best friend.
No matter what, no matter how many relationships or breakup's they will face in the future, or that what they once shared was gone now…They will always be friends.
Danny soon found himself flying back home, feeling a little better after the pep talk from Sam and glad that she didn't pull a cliché and become a jealous bitch ex-girlfriend like he was slightly afraid she'd turn into. Sam was a great girl but she did have a temper on her….but he knew she was serious that what they had was in the past…and all that mattered was that they would still be friends in the future. Danny was suddenly brought out of his thoughts when his ghost sense went off.
"Oh man, who could it be this time?..."Danny wondered as he put his guard up.
He suddenly saw a large net heading towards him and he just barely managed to avoid it.
"Wow..."Danny said as he looked up to see an enraged Skulker.
"You again!...Seriously, how many times do I have to kick your bu-...Danny's quip was cut short when Skulker rammed into him, an enraged look clear as day on his face.
"Wow...Okay...Not even giving me time for witty banter now..."Danny said as he dodged each of Skulker's punches.
"Geez, what's with you now? Did your so called girlfriend make you sleep on the couch or something?...'Danny teased only to stop when he saw Skulker get angrier.
"You'll pay for this whelp! You'll pay for taking my woman from me!...'Skulker yelled to the confused Danny.
"Wait… "your woman"...What are you talking about?...'Danny asked as he dodged one of Skulker's missiles.
"Don't play dumb with me! You stole my woman from me and for that you'll pay, the price is your pelt on the foot of my bed…."Skulker growled as he charged at Danny, who still had no idea what he was talking about.
"Okay, I officially have no clue what your talking about but if you are so eager for me to kick your butt Skulker, then so be it...'Danny said in a cocky tone as he dodged everything Skulker threw at him.
Danny was about to finish things between them when he suddenly a painful electrical shock, he looked to see Skulker with some strange device in his hand. Danny soon found himself reverting back to his human form and fortunately he managed to land on a convenient near rooftop.
"W-What?...'Danny mumbled as he tried to revert back to his ghost form, but couldn't.
"I believe you are familiar with the Plasmius Maximus..."Skulker said smugly to the suddenly worried teenage boy.
"Where did you get that?!...'Danny demanded.
"After you got rid of Plasmius, I went to collect some of the devices I loaned him and I found it...finder's keepers..."Skulker said with a sadistic grin as he pulled out a large knife, eager to have his pray in a corner.
"Oh man..."Danny thought as he tried to think of an escape.
'This is my favorite part of the hunt..."Skulker said darkly, however before anything could happen, he was suddenly hit by a strong blast, sending flying a few yards away from Danny.
"Huh?...What th-...'Danny looked to the direction of the blast to see a very pissed of Ember Mclain.
"I thought I made it clear Skulker..."Ember growled to the robotic hunter who finally got out of his daze.
"EMBER! What the hell are you doing?!..."Skulker demanded to the ghostly pop princess…"Not only do you leave me for that whelp, now your actively interfering with my hunt?!...'He growled to the singer who gave him a dark look.
"I already told you that I'm not letting near his pelt...Not that you could get it!..."Ember yelled at him and soon her hands were on her guitar again.
"I was just about to until you ruined everything!..."Skulker yelled.
Danny just stood there dumbly at the scene before him….Ember was protecting him from Skulker? He couldn't believe this was happening….
"Wait….Wait...Wait...Wait...'Danny yelled to the two ghosts as realization finally sunk it.
"You're his ex-girlfriend?!….'Danny asked in a bewildered tone.
Ember blinked a bit, but realized he was asking her a questions and since she loved him she figured he deserved an immediate answer.
"Unfortunately yes...'Ember said flatly to the still confused Danny.
"You...and him…."Danny asked again as he pointed to the two ghosts, still finding the idea hard to believe. Now he suddenly realized what Skulker was talking about earlier...and he was horrified that he somehow knew about that embarrassing incident from the other day.
"Used to..."Ember insisted to the half ghost boy she fancied.
"Enough gap! I'm getting his pelt and your not going to stop me Ember!…."Skulker yelled as he was about to shoot at Danny only for Ember to put a swirling pink vortex around him that was similar from their first fight, protecting him from the blasts.
"What the? What is she doing?...'Both the hunter and hunted thought in sync as Ember was now in front of him.
"I'm warning you Skulker, go away now and leave Danny alone, or else…."Ember said with her eyes red and her hair blazing. It was obvious her anger and protectiveness was building up of her. Skulker, being too proud and too stupid, completely forgot the previous beating Ember gave him and still refused to back down to the obvious angry girl.
"Make me!..."Skulker yelled only to gulp when Ember's hair skyrocketed and he could even feel the rage she was emanating.
Danny merely stood there agape in the pink vortex that was serving as his protection from Skulker. He was currently witnessing an intense fight between Ember and Skulker. And by fight he means Ember tearing Skulker literally to shreds….all to protect him.
"B-But why?...Is she trying to make him jealous like Kitty did?...'Danny thought about the time Kitty used him to make Johnny jealous, though he doubted it. While Kitty was angry at Johnny for having a wandering eye, she still loved and wanted him back. No, Ember had a truly pissed off expression on her face...one he was familiar with when she used to try and attack him...though it was never at this level.
As he watched Ember continuing to kick Skulker's butt, he noticed her hair was burning and getting bigger the more she fought and he knew what this meant: Ember was getting stronger.
AAAAAGH!...Skulker shouted when Ember ripped his metallic arm off, exposing some wires.
"You'll pay for this Ember! I'll rest both of your pelts on the foot of my bed! You and that whelp of a boyfriend of yours!…."Skulker shouted at Ember kept pounding him.
"You really are stupid Skulker! If you can't handle a fight with me, you'll never get his pelt because I won't let you lay a hand on my Danny!...'Ember shouted as she kept hitting him with her guitar, making very noticeable dents in the armor.
Danny winced and felt his cheeks become red as he heard their very violent conversation. Boyfriend?! He never agreed to that! Danny was pretty sure Ember lost whatever sanity she had, he wasn't her Danny! Though Danny couldn't help but noticed his heart speed up a bit as he watched Ember fight, he knew she was a good fighter but he could never appreciate it since he was the one always fighting her.
"I never noticed how graceful and agile she is...'Danny thought in an impressed tone as he noticed Skulker was finally knocked out on the ground with Ember standing over him. Suddenly the pink vortex/shield was gone and he saw Ember approach him, he flinched a bit when she suddenly took his thermos and walked back toward Skulker.
"Time to get you out of my sight..."Ember said as she tried to suck him in the thermos, but got frustrated when nothing happened.
"Hey! What's wrong with this stupid thing?...Ember demanded as she started to shake the cylindrical device above the still unconscious Skulker.
"Maybe I am dreaming..."Danny thought, though the roughing up he got earlier told him otherwise. He soon found himself to Ember who stopped once she saw him.
"Uh...You..uh...have to press this button..."Danny said hesitantly as he carefully took the thermos out of the smiling ghostly girls hand and quickly sucked Skulker back in.
Danny suddenly found himself alone with Ember on the rooftop and she was smiling at him, like she was waiting for something.
"Uh...Thank, I guess...For helping me...I never imagine Ember Mclain would save me..."Danny said as he rubbed the back of his neck.
Anytime baby pop…."Ember said smiling prettily at the bewildered half ghost boy.
"Wait...Did I just think her smile was pretty?!...'Danny thought in shock as Ember was now face to face with him.
"Are you okay? That idiot didn't do any permanent damage did he?..."Ember said in a protective tone as she studied him.
"I-I'm fine...really….I've been thought way worse, believe me..."Danny said as he tried to stop Ember's examination.
"Good because I would hate to see this cute face get hurt..."Ember said sweetly while Danny's eye twitched a bit.
She was acting strange again...just like the other day.
"Oh look, you have a cut on your cheek..."Ember pointed and Danny's eyes widened as he recalled the last time she noticed an injury on him and what it lead to
"I'm...I'm fine...It's nothing really!..."Danny insisted as he tried to keep out of her reach, all the while trying to ignore his heart pumping, though he chalked it off as nerves.
"A-Anyway Ember...Care to explain all this?...'Danny demanded to the azure haired ghost girl.
"What do you mean?...'Ember asked in a genuinely confused tone of voice.
"THAT! Why...Why are you acting so different?...Why are you being nice to me? Why did you protect me from Skulker and why did you...why did you..."Danny panted after a bit. He noticed a troubled expression on Ember's face...only to quickly melt into a smiling on.
"I have to be honest Danny….I don't know why this is happening or why now...but I….I like you..."Ember said it with a blush.
Time seemed to stand still for Danny at that point, who was discreetly pinching himself to if he was dreaming or not, unfortunately this was actually happening.
"You...You like me?...'Danny asked, only to flinch when he noticed Ember was much closer now than she was a second ago.
"You heard me baby..."Ember said with a flirtatious look on her face as Danny found himself walking back.
"She's either an incredible actress trying to freak me out or she..."Danny cursed Skulker for rendering him without powers, especially when he found his back hitting the wall and Ember only a few inched in front of him wearing that familiar smile again.
Danny's breath hitched as he felt her arms around him and her lips on his cheek again.
"Get off!..."Danny insisted, only for Ember to playfully give him a few more pecks on the cheeks before she released the red-faced ghost boy who was wearing her purple lipstick once more.
"Em...Ember..."Danny said, trying to sound angry but his stuttering only made him look cute in her eyes.
"Yes baby..."Ember said giggling, weirding Danny out even more.
"Look, I don't know why or what or how you-…"Danny was cut off when Ember suddenly jumped up.
"Oh yeah, I actually came here for a reason..."Ember said to the blinking ghost boy. Ember noticed that despite how angry Danny wanted to sound, she wasn't as rough with him as she was the last time, she didn't have a strong grasp on him and he could have easily pushed her off but he didn't even tried to fight out of her embrace.
"Maybe….Maybe he might..."Ember wasn't one to hope but she knew if Danny was as angry as he wanted to sound, he would have put up a real fight. She was originally came to explain her situation and have him let her down gently, only to find Skulker being stupid again and she soon found herself tearing Skulker to shreds and wanting to kiss Phantom's boo-boo's away.
"I...Here…."Ember said, suddenly looking shy for some reason.
Danny raised an eyebrow and hesitantly picked up what looked like a Valentine's day card, though it was blue and had Ember's signature blue fire on it.
"You have been invited to join Ms. Ember Mclain for dinner tomorrow at 6:00pm at Styx's Cafe..."Danny read the card, only for his jaw to drop as he registered what was happening.
"Styx's Cafe is one of the best restaurants in the Ghost Zone, I know you'll love it and here are the directions to my realm.."Ember said excitedly as she shoved said directions in the still shocked boy's hand.
"See ya tomorrow, Danny..."Ember said cheerfully as a whirlwind of flames came and she disappeared, leaving Danny alone with both the card and the coordinates.
"Wait...Tomorrow is Valentine's day...and Ember just asked me to have dinner with her...Don't tell me...that this is...A DATE?!…."Danny yelled, completely freaking out at the idea that he was just asked out by one of his enemies.
-To be continued-
Next time on Cupid's Wrath
!Ember's in love!
REPLIES to my loyal and totally awesome reviewers:
aslan333, For the love of Frisk, rebfan90,vaulttec01 andFeMorgenstern11: Thank you all, you make me blush ;)
Invader Johnny: I guess we'll have to wait and see which of your predictions come true ;)
Shadowed Sword: Maybe….maybe not, you'll just have to wait and see :3
Mr. R3M: Believe me when I say, I'll never get tired of hearing your comments, so don't be shy.
Wiseguy2415: Sorry about that, but I fixed that little mistake.
Memme10k: I know and I'm sick to death with that cliché, I mean I can see her being jealous but suddenly turning into a green eyed monster is too much of an extreme for me, one that I'm tired of seeing in the fandom. I prefer what I showed here, with Sam obviously feeling upset at the idea of Danny moving on, but understanding that what they have is gone now and just wanting him to be happy. Break up's are hard, especially with people who started out as great friends but real friends are capable of overcoming anything together.
:) Till next time beautiful people, don't forget to review or PM me :)
