The Other Halfa: Part II - Danny Phantom the Series

Double Cross My Heart: Part 3

"Uh...Heh heh...Hi Gregor," Danny nervously laughs.

"By the way, cool shirt," Gregor complimented Danny, who looked over his shirt.

"Not too much red messing up the whole white thing for you?" 

"It totally works for you. I could never pull off such a look myself," Gregor said, looking down with a slightly glum face as Danny thanks him. 

He does his flick of the wrist thing as he asks, "Pfft, Sam, would you care to show me around school?" 

"I thought you'd never ask," Sam says, wrapping her arm around Gregor's as they walk off, Danny watching in annoyance.

"You know he's not a bad guy," Tucker says, and I nod. 

I kind of thought Gregor was good for her. Her jealousy vanished. She started acting nicer to me, like before we admitted our crushes on Danny. She's even been open with her emotions a bit. 

"I still don't trust him," Danny grumbles.

I would roll my eyes, but a part of me was wary of Gregor; just a part of him seemed fake, but for Sam, I'll give him a chance.

Suddenly, our ghost sense goes off, and we turn around to hear screaming as one of the ectopuses pops up and flies around the corner. 

"We can talk more about this later!" I state, grabbing Danny's hand as we race into a closet to go ghost. 

We fly out and start to chase after the ghost. I split off from Danny to go a different way to trap the ghost. We meet up in a corner, but the ghost phases through the locker, and we soon follow into the history class, where we were met with a bunch of tentacle slaps to the face.

 I rub the sore spot on my face as I glare at the ghost as he flies down towards the pool. After making sure Danny was fine, we started to chase him again, where we jumped into the pool to find... the Guys In White again. 

They both had some sort of torpedo gun, and both were shot as we swam out of the way.

"Firing ghost depth charge, prepare for the great white whale!"

"Wait! Those are only for—" 

It was too late, a small glowing tube was dropped from the belt buckle and landed on the ground. 

While the two were distracted, Danny tapped my shoulder and pointed up. I gave a quick nod as we started to swim up. 

The pool door slams open to reveal Lancer with a book and a piece of toast in hand.

"Ah, the perfect way to spend lunch, Shakespeare by the pool and dry white toast." 

Just as he was about to sit down, the water in the pool exploded up as Danny and I flung up and phased through the roof. Lancer squeezed the water out of his toast before taking notice of the two men in the pool. 

"Hopereta October!" 

"Deepwater use..." The one GIW uttered before passing out.

 Danny, Tucker, and I walk to the mall to hang out. After learning Sam was hanging out with Gregor tonight instead, Danny started ranting about Gregor possibly working with the GIW.

"Think about it, Gregor shows up, so do the Guys in White. He's got the whole white hair, white clothes thing, so do the Guys in Whit,e and what's with the phony accent and that pfft thing?" Danny explains making quotations with his fingers and copying the wrist flick thing Gregor likes to do. 

"So you're saying Gregor's a spy?" Tucker asked, and Danny nodded.

 "I'm also saying that maybe I should keep an invisible eye on him and Sam."

Danny began to walk away as Tucker and I asked in unison, "What?!" 

"I dunno, you're gonna spy on Sam?" Tucker asked, and I crossed my arms.

"You're being overprotective. If you feel like Gregor is hiding something, there are better ways to figure it out, Danny. You're going to betray her trust like this." 

"Eh, it's for her own good, she'll thank me later," Danny said, going invisible as he flew up Tucker, soon shouting as Sam and Gregor walked up.

"It's a bad idea!" 

"Shouting angrily into the sky, very Euro goth. I like it," Gregor says, flipping Tucker's beret back to where he can't see. 

"Enjoy your date, have her back by ten!" I shout to them when Danny flies back down and puts Tucker's hat back on the right way. 

"It's still a bad idea!" Tucker shouts before turning to me. "Are you not gonna stop him?"

"I would, but that boy learns his lessons through experience; he'll see that Gregor's harmless. You've still got some time before you have to be back home, right? Want to hang out at the mall?" 

"Yes! I mean, yeah, sure!" Tucker says excitedly as we make our way to the mall, me looking back with a frown, hoping Danny doesn't ruin their date.

"You're right (y/n), this is good!" Tucker exclaimed, sucking on the straw of a chocolate combination from a cafe. 

"Glad to hear it," I say with a grin when his confession comes to mind. 

How could I forget about that?  I even promised to talk to Tucker about his crush...Guess now is a good time as any...

"Hey uh, Tucker? How have you been?" I ask cautiously.

"Huh, I'm doing fine, see?" Tucker says, confused, before smiling at me.

 "No, I meant with your feelings...Toward me. We haven't really talked about it," I correct him,  spinning my straw with my fingers, and his face drops.

"Oh, so you remember that, huh?" 

"Yeah, I do. I'm sorry I haven't talked to you about it." 

"You don't need to apologize, especially since I already know your answer...You don't feel the same," Tucker says glumly, and I set down my drink and hug him. 

"While yes, I don't have those types of feelings for you, I still love you, you're like a brother to me and though there's not much I can do to help get you over these feelings, I'll still do what I can," I soon feel Tucker hug me back as he whispers a thank you in my ear.

Throughout the night, Danny watched the two on their date, from tossing rocks on a lake to watching a movie at the theaters to eating dinner at the mall.

"Oh man, if they share a strand of that spaghetti I'm gonna hurl..." Danny grumbled as he watched from above.
