`About a year ago Sam's cousin Sebastian moved in with her… he and I became good friends, we still are. But, lately I've been having these feelings towards him, like I want to be close to him, closer than usual. I want to hold him close, feel his lips on my own. I have absolutely no idea what to do about it and the only one I can think to talk to is Sam.'
 
Danny's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of his name being called; He smiled when he saw it was his friends, Sam, Tucker, and Sebastian. “Hey Sam, Tucker, `Bastian.” This was a nickname Danny used for his friend; no one else used this name.
 
“Hey Danny,” they all said in unison. The three usually walked together seeing as how Sam and Sebastian lived together and Tucker close by.
 
“How was your weekend Danny?” Sebastian asked.
 
Danny noted how cute the other was when he smiled, Sebastian only came up to Danny's nose, and he had quite a small build, not scrawny he was more toned and lean, he had tan skin with short black hair and green eyes, he was “pretty” for lack of a better word. Danny on the other hand had gotten taller, his frame had gotten bigger not like Dash but he was more definition to his muscles, he was still kind of pale and still had the same deep cerulean eyes.
 
“It was good actually, sorry we didn't do anything I was uh… busy,” Danny hadn't found the time to tell his friend about his secret life as a ghost hero, and whenever he gave Sebastian an excuse he always accepted them with a sweet naivety.
 
“It's okay, but maybe this weekend then?” the green eyed boy asked. Danny smiled and nodded, to which the other smiled as well.
 
Sam and Tucker both looked at each other and shook their heads. “Hey Tucker how much would you bet if I said they were a couple by the end of this week?” Sam asked.
 
“I'd bet you twenty bucks.” They shook on it as their silent bet began.
 
The group started their trek to school, the bell rang and they were split up into their separate classes. Lunch finally came and they were reunited.
 
“Tucker, do you ever stop playing with that thing?” Sam asked.
 
Tucker glared at her. “It's not `playing' it's organizing and prioritizing.”
 
“Whatever, you still never stop playing with it.”
 
He childishly stuck out his tongue, Danny and Sebastian laughed. `He has such a wonderful laugh, I can't believe I never realized it before.'
 
They all stopped laughing when they noticed a new presence. “Dash! What are you doing here!?” Danny asked.
 
“Not that I need a reason to be here Fenton, but I wanted to talk to Manson.” Dash almost spat out Danny's last name.
 
“Me?” Sam asked.
 
“No not you! Sebastian,” said boy pointed to himself while looking at Dash, Dash nodded and looked slightly uncomfortable. “Could we um… Talk in private?”
 
“Sure.” Sebastian got up and followed Dash just outside the lunchroom door.
 
“What do you think they're talking about?” Tucker asked
 
“I don't know…” Sam said. She looked at Danny who was gripping the table so tightly that his knuckles were white. “Danny…Are you alright?”
 
“What if Dash is planning something awful or hurts him or shoves him in a locker or all of that I bet he's up to something, Dash is never nice especially not to us so why would he be now--”
 
“Whoa big boy, slow down. I think you're jumping to conclusions.” Sam said trying to calm him down.
 
“No I'm not!” He said in his own defense. As he finished his sentence the one he was worried about came back into the lunchroom and sat down in his usual spot next to Danny. “Are you hurt? What did he want with you?”
 
Sebastian gave him a questioning look, “Why would I be hurt?”
 
Then it occurred to him Dash was never mean to Sebastian, he was never even mean around Sebastian. “Well, what did he want?”
 
His friend blushed, “Umm he… he wanted me to… to help him study.” A lie, and Danny knew it, Sam and Tucker were satisfied, but Danny knew that he was lying. They all finished their lunches chit chatting, except for Danny, he still had the event with Dash on his mind. The bell rang signaling the end of lunch, Sebastian and Danny were in the next class together and Danny seized the opportunity to question his friend.
 
“So…what was that thing with Dash really about?” He asked casually.
 
Sebastian blushed again, “I told you he just wants me to help him study.” Danny sensed the lie in his voice. Danny looked right into his friend's eyes. “What?”
 
“C'mon `Bastian, I know well enough to know when you're lying.”
 
The other sighed in defeat. “Can I tell you a secret?” Danny nodded. “Danny I-I like… guys. I know it might be strange to you but I do, I don't really like Dash but he asked me out on a date tonight and I thought it might be fun.”
 
Danny was filled with a mixture of happiness and jealousy. “Cool.” Was all he could muster up to say. `Stupid! Stupid! Why don't you tell him you like guys too, way to go smart one.' Me mentally barraged himself for not taking advantage of his opportunity.
 
“Really? You're okay with it… not freaked out or anything?” He asked, Sebastian knew how vulnerable he was making himself at that moment, but he needed to tell Danny, he was his best friend after all.
 
“Of course I'm okay with it.” With that they were both satisfied and started focusing on their work. Danny was still berating himself for not saying anything.

Tyler: So what do you all think? This was my first Danny Phantom fic. And I thought I did a good job on the first chapter, I think Sebastian needs a little more depth but I will do that in the next chapter. Please let me know what you think, I'd hate to just be wasting my time.
