Love Triangle Ch 17

A few hours had passed; they were still both sound asleep underneath the stars, Phantom's glow was seen from a mile away. At that same time, Maddie and Jack were still searching all over town for the two teens and Jack was getting tired but Maddie was still in battle mode and having now one goal, having her boy back and Phantom being boiled down to his remains.

Jack yawned as his eyes started to get drowsy. "Maddie, I'm getting tired and it's 4am. Can we go home?" He whined

Maddie sighed in an annoyed and impatient tone. "We'll go home as soon as I find Phantom and blast him to smithereens."

"But they could be anywhere." Jack whined again.

"We'll find them soon enough!"

Jack sighed in tiredness and impatience; he rested his head in his chin while his eyes got drowsier by the minute and Maddie continued searching for Phantom and Danny.

It was finally dawn; the specks of sunlight from the horizon hit Phantom's face first. He opened his eyes slowly to see the fields beyond them, the light green grass and the odd coloured sky. It was a beautiful sight, well almost. There was something or more importantly, someone missing from this speck of natural beauty.

He turned to his left to see Danny with his head resting on top of his hands causing to cut some of the blood circulation off, and his legs were bent at a almost 90 degree angle. His black messed up hair covered half of his face, if you looked close enough, you could just see his right eye.

Phantom smiled as he patted Danny's head softly. He ran his hand all the way down his spinal cord and back up, this of course didn't wake Danny up at all. Not one single bit.

He must have been that tired, Phantom thought.

In Danny's dream was him, Phantom, Vlad and Sam. Vlad had captured both Phantom and Sam; Vlad told him that he had to decide which one should stay with him and which one should die. It was a very tough decision but Phantom didn't know that.

Danny looked over at Sam who was hanging from chains and badly bruised, her skin was changing to a paler white and her legs were feeling numb from not enough blood circulation. Her eyes had bags underneath them from having not much sleep as well as Vlad draining all her energy into him to make him more powerful.

She looked up at Danny with a weak voice. "Danny, please…rescue me."

He looked over at Phantom who was facing the same conditions that Sam was in. His body was heavily bruised and wounded. His suit was almost torn to shreds and his face was covered with scars and green glowing blood, Danny could see the glow that surrounded Phantom was fading away very slowly.

"Danny…I love you more than anything. Please s-save me before I…"

Phantom's head felt heavy, he dropped his head down in needing of rest and comfort. Of course Vlad didn't allow this; he dashed up to Phantom and zapped him multiple times. This made Danny's decision even harder and you want to know why he cares so much for Sam?

Sam had been friends with Danny ever since he was 8 years of age, she was the one that had got him out of an argument and always helped Danny to pass a test. And ever since Danny acquired his ghost abilities, Sam would always be there to back Danny up and give an excuse to his family and friends about where he was. She would almost always be ready for action and was a great fighter; she was persuasive, smart and a really good friend to Danny.

She helped Danny when he needed help, she was always the one. Sam Manson was the one girl that he had always loved. Deep down inside, he still cared for her.

Then he was suddenly woken up by Phantom shaking him wildly. Danny moaned and tried to move out of Phantom's arms but Phantom was too strong for Danny to handle. He smiled then acted like as if he had suddenly died.

Phantom let go as he saw Danny all of a sudden stopped moving. "Danny? Are…you okay?"

Phantom placed two fingers on a pulse on Danny's neck. Before he could feel a beat, Danny woke up and pushed Phantom to the ground with Danny pushing his hands into the ground.

Phantom smirked then phased through the ground which caused Danny to face plan himself onto the grass. An ant crawled onto Danny's face which caused Danny to itch vigorously in that area and smack the ant away.

"Hey!" Danny screamed in a joke way. "Where'd ya go?"

Danny looked all over the place and when he looked behind him, he saw a grinned Phantom.

"Boo!"

Danny was startled, he jumped a little then shoved Phantom in a friendly way.

"Phantom, you cute little idiot!"

"Naw. You always know what to say to me when I annoy you." Phantom stated in a cute-like voice.

Danny stood up and brushed some dirt off his knees and arms. He fixed up his hair then turned around to the east to see the sun almost blinding him.

"Whoa, when did he come up?" Danny asked referring to the sun.

"Don't know, about two or three hours ago?"

Danny covered his face from the brightness of the sun; he then felt a cold touch being wrapped around Danny's body. Phantom had turned himself invisible and wrapped his ghost tail around Danny.

"Phantom, you sexy guy. If you want to make out you can just ask or force me." Danny stated with a little laugh.

Phantom giggled, he turned himself visible as Danny turned his head slightly to see Phantom smiling brightly.

Danny was unable to move his arms; they were snugged tightly by Phantom's ghost tail. He wanted to break free so he could grab Phantom, push him towards the ground and make out with him passionately.

He had to think of an excuse, he used the most common excuse that almost everyone knew of.

"Um, Phantom. I need to go."

Phantom, of course was fooled by this. Phantom slowly and gently unwrapped his tail from Danny as Danny sighed in relief.

As Danny started to walk near a bush, Phantom sat down and leant against an old tree.

He looked up at the cirrus clouds that made wisp-like shapes in the sky that caught his attention. He loved the shapes and the preposition of them, it had almost looked like they were wrapping around each other.

Suddenly, Phantom heard the sound of soft running feet. As he turned around, Danny shoved him to the ground and smothered his lips with Phantom's.

They both felt the intimacy, the pleasure and passion run through their bodies. They rubbed each other's bodies and moaned in romance and pleasure.

After a few long moments, they broke apart and Danny's face was red from the making out and the temperature. Phantom was feeling a little sweaty too. But, it was in the middle of winter. Why were they hot? Must have been from the making out they had just did.

They both sat together underneath a tree and watching the clouds move for about 15 minutes. After that, Danny started having thoughts about the dream and more importantly, Sam.

Phantom looked at his partner who looked worried and upset. "Danny, what's wrong?"

"Hm?" Danny asked as he looked at his partner. "Oh, nothing Phantom. Nothing for you to worry about."

Danny, I'm your soul mate. You can tell me anything." Phantom exclaimed as he rested his hands on Danny's shoulders.

Danny looked down in guilt and worry. He sighed as he closed his eyes in disappointment. "I can't tell you."

"You can tell me anything, what's bothering you? Is it your missing shoe?"

Danny laughed in disbelief "No, it's not that. I'm not that stupid to worry about something that pointless."

"Then what is it? Does it have anything to do with me?"

"I'm…not exactly sure."

"What do you mean?" Phantom wondered raising an eyebrow.

Danny pushed Phantom's hands off of his shoulder and stood up. He rested a hand on another tree as tears started to develop in his eyes.

Phantom stood up and walked up to Danny feeling confused and worried about how Danny was behaving. "Danny, please tell me. If it's a problem I can probably solve it for you."

Danny sniffled. "No you can't!" he cried.

Danny buried his face in his hands as he started to slowly sit down still leaning against the tree.

Phantom gasped at Danny's reaction. "Danny, just tell me!"

Danny uncovered his face from his hands; his eyes were red and swollen from the salty watery tears that had developed. Danny took a deep breath then started to explain what was running through his mind ever since he woke up.

"Look, just don't get mad when I'm explaining it to you okay?"

Phantom nodded then sat down and crossed his legs. He waited for Danny to speak once more.

Danny sniffled; he rubbed his nose then took a deep breath. "Alright, it's like this. You see I had this dream."

"You're complaining about a dream?" Phantom wondered.

"Just let me continue! You see, Sam and you were in chains."

Phantom gasped. "What!?"

"Vlad had captured both of you; he gave me only one option. To choose one of you and the other will die right in front of you. Both of you were on opposite sides, I was in the middle trying to decide whom I should choose to survive and who will be killed. Both of you convinced me that you both still needed me. I couldn't decide."

"Then what happened?"

"I woke up."

"Oh. But, why were you uncertain of whom you wanted to choose?"

"Because somehow deep down, I still loved Sam…"

Phantom blinked in astonishment and amazement.

"Please…don't get mad at me Phantom."
