Danny Phantom Fan Fiction ❯ Samantha and Sunshine ❯ Chapter 8

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Dan looked at the female beside him. Danny had left them, his obvious attitude still making the room tense. Sam had been beyond pissed, her posture letting him know how Danny's words had rattled her. Dan had heard them, his hearing better than a human's... He had to agree that the words the halfa had said hadn't been the right ones, not by a longshot.

"Sorry about that," she muttered darkly. "I don't what he is thinking! I mean seriously!" The older male pulled her to his chest, the only thing he could think of at the moment as the words that he's heard played through his mind. The halfa had been pissed, but the words that had come out of his mouth hadn't been his true feelings. No, the younger male had balked at revealing how he felt until it had been too late to express himself. He shook his head as he looked down at the raven head that just came to his shoulders. She loved the halfa and although she wanted to tell him Sam wasn't one to reveal herself that easily. Her temper sometimes got the best of her, but she also didn't want to lose the one that she was closest to.

He knew that although she had him and Tucker that the small Gothic woman only considered Danny her true friend. Tucker wouldn't do anything for her and although Danny would go farther to please her he also knew when to tell her no. Sam pulled back to look at him and he could see it in her eyes. She was mad at her friend for not supporting her when she had clearly stepped back to let him date Paulina and Valerie! Sure, she had spied, he had also done that, but she hadn't gone to him and said hurtful words. She had been concerned about the fact that Danny had been dating a ghost hunter, one that wanted his pelt like Skulker did.

"Sam, friends fight. Best friends don't hold back, but what he did he did out of love." Sam was shocked to hear such kind words from Dan about Danny. She had thought he hated the halfa, but it seemed that now he was defending him. "No, I don't like him, but he was me at one point so I can understand." The Goth blinked in confusion. It took her a moment to process it.

"But he doesn't feel the way you do," she stated. The male before her shook his head.

"Danny is still at that point of understanding things. You never know what he's thinking." Sam was going to reply when Dan leaned down and captured her lips with his, her mind turning to mush as he pulled her closer to him. Pulling back for only a moment he said, "Time to finish what we started." The Goth smirked with understanding before pulling him back down for a deeper kiss. She clung to him, holding onto his muscular arms as his tongue moved across her lips, asking for entrance and she opened them without hesitation. His tongue moved into her mouth, touching hers as they learned how to French kiss, her first and his. She groaned at the same time as him, her body melting against his firm form as his hands moved down her body. His body was so hard against her in more ways than one and she found that it gave her confidence as his mouth moved from her mouth and across her jaw, tingles of pleasure left in his wake.

Danny floated around town thinking about the fact that she was with a guy that had to at least be five or more years than her. He hadn't known her to like older guys or for her to date in general. He only knew of a couple of guys and neither had been right for her.

That should be me holding your hand
That should be me making you laugh

*We're not dating!*

Those words had stuck in his mind for hours now, replaying over and over again. With each time he could feel two emotions. Anger and pain. While it was true they weren't seeing each other he cared about her and had wanted her to have someone she deserved, not some stranger that just showed up out of nowhere claiming that she was helping him! She didn't need a guy that was going to walk around naked in her house or pressure her into sex! Maybe that was part of why he had freaked. They had been on the bed with her straddling him. Danny had felt instant anger, something stronger than when she had dated Elliot. It had burned in his chest and at the same time he had felt it clutch his heart with misery.

He knew how he felt about her and yet every time he should have said something his mind had gone blank. He could see them growing up together, being there when her mother and father had done something to make her cry. Sam was strong, but when her parents failed to understand she would get so emotionally blocked that it would explode. No one had borne witness to those moments except for him. He had been the first and only one that had been there. She had been like a little sister, always there to play with him and then Tucker had come along. The dark skinned male had invaded their group and although he could be a great guy Sam and Danny had been the closest.

That should be me, this is so sad
That should be me, that should be me

Now he felt that he was losing her. His best friend and other half was walking away. Soon she would find little time for him and her... Something that had happened when she and Elliot had dated. They had spent so much time together that Danny had felt lost without her. That had been weird and then he knew how the Goth had felt to. She was right. She was a female and every woman deserved to be loved, but still...

That should be me feeling your kiss
That should be me buying you gifts

How had he allowed fear to rule him? How had he allowed that to keep him from telling Sam how he felt? Sure, he had been worried that she would say no and that their relationship would fall apart, but even after all they had been through, like wishing she had never met him, their relationship had only grown stronger. If anything they were closer than they had been in a long while. He straightened, stopping in the skies as the clouds moved past him. Looking back he knew what he needed to do. He needed to let the Goth know how he felt and fuck it if she didn't want to be with him because at least he got it out!

This is so wrong, I can't go on
'Til you believe that that should be me
That should be me

Sam hit the wall with a crash as Dan fought off the Observants that had shown up, a large group of them. It seemed that this time their target was Sam yet again. The Goth quickly stood up, the wall keeping her steady as her vision swam.

"Sam!" he called out. She called back that she was fine as she pulled out the ghost ray bracelet that Danny had given her after their adventure at camp. She began to fire and while she was able to hit most of her targets they seemed to keep appearing. Dan was having a similar issue as he was kept as far from the Goth as possible.

"Dan, do the wail!" she screamed out as she shot another Observant. He shook his head, very much aware of what could happen should he use his ghostly wail. Not only would it blow the monsters attacking them, but the house would come down and Sam would be hurt! He wasn't willing to take that chance with her life. "Dan it's the only way! I'll be fine!" Again he shook his head. "Daaaannnnn!" she screamed as her head was slammed into a wall, her eyes rolling back in her head. The white haired male's eyes flashed a brilliant green as he shoved two observants to the ground while attempting to make his way over to the Gothic female. It was then that Danny burst through the door, his ice blue eyes landing on Dan before narrowing.

"What the fuck?!" At first he intended to charge on the enemy that had almost killed his friends and family when the he noticed where Dan's eyes were. It was as if time stopped, the older male throwing one eyed creatures into walls and ceilings while Sam crumpled to the ground, her form disappearing under the crowd.

"SAM!" the two men yelled in unison as all the observants disappeared leaving behind a motionless Sam. Dan rushed forward, no longer kept back from the love he had just found while Danny just stood there, his feet rooted to the ground. Sam... Sam was dead... she was dead wasn't she? That had been what those things had been after. Those observants...

"Why hadn't I believed her?" he whispered as Dan pulled the woman into his lap, her neck falling back limply. She didn't move, her chest still as she lay there on his legs. "Why didn't I force her to take my help?" He took one step toward the other male, his eyes fastened to the woman in his lap. "Why did this happen?" Dan looked up at him, his green eyes reflecting pain and anguish. Danny was sure his own reflected the same. At that moment Danny fell to his knees as his friend lay motionless before him in his enemy's arms. How ironic...how seemingly unthought of. He would never have thought he would find himself in her room with Dan, both of them morning the death of a love... a love that had never been revealed on his end.

Dan had already experienced it once, only finding out after his Sam had died so for him this was a second blow to his heart. He hadn't thought it would happen again and right after he had gotten to kiss her and hold her close. Not long after they had realized their feelings. His right fist hit the ground, the floor cracking under his rage. When his eyes opened they were red again, his eyes narrowing as he moved Sam's body to Danny's embrace. The halfa looked down at her and then back up at the other male as Dan stood.

"Where are you going?" the halfa asked. "You're just going to walk away?" Dan growled as he shook his head. He didn't have to explain himself, but he could see that Danny was just as hurt as he.

"I am going to the Tower. I am going to kill those bastards." He took off at that moment as Danny sat there with Sam. He didn't want to leave her, but he wanted revenge for her death. Standing he took off, the small raven haired beauty still crushed to his chest. He would follow the other male, but Sam wasn't going to stay at her house. No, she would be safer at his house. While he did that Dan headed for the portal that was kept at Danny's parents' home.
