“That’s too bad. I agree, though. It’d be nice to actually see them up close.” 

“Oh, no way beyond my comfort zone.. But, it would be spectacular to see them so close to you.”

Danny knew that Tink meant well, but he didn’t think about it was true at all. It was hard for him to believe it after what he had gone through. “You’re right.” He wasn’t sure what else to say to her. He didn’t want to just cut her off, but he also didn’t want to continue on this subject. It brought up too many fresh memories for him. Her excitement caused him to smile as he ran his fingers through his hair. He may not have been willing to release everything, but he would tell her how they kidnapped him. “They like to surprise at random, but they’re not very stealthy.” He shrugged as his words suddenly seem to be lost. His throat tightened up as he swallowed. “I’ll, uh, just tell you later. Too fresh.” He apologized. Then, slowly, he took a gentle hold on the sides of Tink’s arms, shaking his head. “I know how tough you are. I know you could really hurt them, but I don’t think you understand. They’ll do ten times worse.” 

“You don’t have to guess because I am right. As soon as you take that technology away from them they’re no different from you and me.” She stated admittedly not noticing that the words he said might not have been ones that he felt were all true. When he mentioned techniques, her sky blue eyes lit up. “Like what? You have to tell me. You have to show me. It could help me with my projects.” It was clear that having something to one up the creators excited her to no end. However, all the excitement seemed to stop and it was clear that his words had her slightly unsettled. Slowly she pulled his finger off her lips. “Danny, it’s me we’re talking about. I am tough. It’s not like they can do anything to phase me. It’s just me and they deserve what’s coming to them.”

Danny hated the pain that Mabel was in. The best he could do was just hold her and pretend things were okay. Yet, there was still a looming feeling of gloom sitting in his chest. It killed him to think that she could be taken next. She was sweet and innocent. She didn’t deserve anything like he had gone through. His tears finally seemed to come to an end. His cheeks were still wet, but at least he had stopped crying. Danny was thankful that Mabel hadn’t called out his bluff. The last thing he needed was for her to hear the rough things they had done. It would only cause more pain. “Yeah, they are bastards. Good then we stick together, kiddo. You and me.” 

Mabel sniffled as she put her hand back down in attempt to wipe at her own tears before nuzzling into him as Danny pulled her back into his chest, hugging back just as tight as the sound of his sobs continued. Seeing the dark haired boy so vulnerable made her want to do all that she could to get him to feel better, but at the moment all she felt was a little useless. At his words she let out a watery laugh, only nodding in response as she mumbled out a ‘good’ into his chest. The young brunette looked up at him as he lied, smiling down at her. She had her suspicions but decided not to dwell on it, at least not for now. He was here; he was back. That’s all that’s important. “Their still bastards for taking you away. I’m not letting anything happen to you.”

“I gotta keep my tough guy image. It’s only fair.” Danny answered with a confident smile on his face. Although he liked being sweet occasionally, he preferred that people think the worst of him. It helped him out since he didn’t have to deal with many people. Her tone had softened and the guilt creeped back into his mind. He knew that this was going to hurt her. “I promise.” He said with a small smile as they danced along to the songs. He was pretty sure their dancing didn’t match the music, but at this point, he didn’t care. “Yeah, definitely. We don’t need a drunk Tink running around.” 

“Oh? Why is that?” She asked with a smile on her face. It made her feel special when he told her she was the only one who was allowed to call him something. He had always been so sweet and gentle with her, more so than others. Her breathing slowed as her bright blue eyes looked up at him. He was actually finally believing what she said and he wasn’t pushing her away. “You promise?” She asked her voice just as soft as his had been though not because of guilt, but more because of nervousness. “Would you have?” She joked back.

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

Danny’s eyebrow popped up at her words. Finally, after a moment, he decided to call her out. “If you didn’t want to be lost, you would have gone to a bar where people knew you.” He pointed the fact out as casually as he could. He didn’t want to offend her, but he also figured she deserved to hear honestly. “I figured. You hang out with the party crowd.” He took a sip from his glass. “Not too often. Just when I want to forget things.” 

“Me? Lost? I don’t think so.” She doesn’t say anything for a little bit. The silence between the two was surprisingly enough. And his last question made her anxious. It was simple, casual, but at the same time it wasn’t. She didn’t want to admit anything out loud, but at the same time she didn’t want to look like it was a big deal. “Frequently, actually,” she finally spits out. “You?”

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

Who are these nice blondes, Danny?

“I dunno, the blondes I hang out with? Tink’s pretty nice. Star isn’t too bad, either. I’ve only spoken to Anna a little bit, but she seems innocent enough. What’s with the third degree?” 

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

Danny returned the girl’s smile with one of his own. At first, he had been weary of her, not sure if they’d get along. Now, he found himself actually glad that he had been able to talk some sense into her. Everyone deserved to be happy, right? “You see, that’d be nice to do, but I think girls might get tired of me spilling things on them all the time. It probably wouldn’t go over that well.” He told her while chuckling throughout his sentence. He could only imagine the situation. “That’s great. I’m glad you two finally found each other. That’s understandable. Safety is a big issue.” He was taken back when she mentioned seeing him with Meg. He wasn’t hiding the girl or anything, just didn’t realize people paid attention to him. “Um, just friends, I think? I’m not sure. She’s beautiful and all, but I don’t think she does relationships.” 

Stars smile only brightened as was typical for her. One would think her cheeks would split right in half with how much she grinned. “It’s okay. You should embrace your clumsiness. Make it into like a character thing. Where people think its cute and quirky you know?!” Star gave a dreamy sigh as she thought of Marco. “He’s amazing. Still super safe and stuff which is just fine with me. He and I only ever fight when it comes to each others safety, you just caught us on a bad night. What about you? You know I’ve seen you with that Meg girl a lot.”

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

“Yeah, maybe, but then you’d look like the girls we try to avoid. Some blondes are nice, but let’s be honest, most are just rude as hell.” 

“Okay but hear me out. If I can pull off blonde, me of all people, then you will have to admit that Sam Manson can do anything.”

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

“Who says that it’s just me? You might wake up and realize I’m secretly a ghost. All things are possible around here.” Danny grinned as he rolled his eyes at how cocky she was around him. “Yeah, falling in love, sure.” He figured he’d just go along with the statement. At this point, they both knew it was impossible for that to happen. He did find it nice to be able to get along with her and exchange sarcasm, but he wasn’t anywhere near love. Plus, he was just awkward with relationships. He reached over and poke at her pout. “Wow, didn’t think you’d be so willing to recreate that look.” His taunting tone had returned. Even though he poked fun at her, Danny oddly enough enjoyed her pout.

Her words threw him for a loop. Flirting? Was she flirting with him? His eyebrows furrowed together as he attempted to recount their conversation. Danny wasn’t completely obvious about these sort of things. He often missed cues that were clearly obvious. “Flirting with me? Thought you weren’t into guys like me? I’m a dirt bag.” He attempted to keep the gag running between them, but it made his mind race more. He tried to push thoughts of her flirting out of his mind. He didn’t want to think about that, but only because he wasn’t that great at dealing with girls. “Nope, sorry, no can do.” He stretched his arm out behind his head while replying to her. “We’re friends, so you’ll just have to put up with the word.” His stubbornness had come out to play. Danny was well-aware of the fact that she was kidding, but he figured he’d throw some sass back at her. It was only fair and made things more interesting. 

He only raised an eyebrow when she mentioned not liking to share. That hadn’t surprised him. Danny hadn’t pinned her as one of those girls that would share anything they had. “I’m not surprised, but good, they’ll around know. Oh, look, I’ve got that look down. I basically hate my life, so that won’t be hard.” He laughed cheerfully at her joke, shaking his head. “Yes because, god forbid, people realize Meg is nice.” He faked a gasp and threw his hand over his mouth at the word. “Yeah, I do. I read it pretty often.” He casually mentioned.

meg found it odd that she was allowing someone to see how easy it could be to get along with her. she wasn’t a villain. strong willed and minded, the girl stuck to her values of course, but she could actually be a pretty easy going person if another just put in the effort. if they showed they wanted to talk and actually listen than she was fine meeting them in the middle. she was weird like that, always had been, and always would be. “ maybe. or maybe you’ll wake up one morning to find out that i’ve only ever existed in your dreams and not in reality. wouldn’t that be a tragedy for you? you’d just look crazy and after all this time of falling in love with me like we both know you have i’d just be gone. ” meg jutted her bottom lip out in a half-assed pout before shifting. 

danny was hard to read and she sort of liked that about him. he wasn’t a straight shooter. he wasn’t like the other stupid males in the hell-hole people referred to as sandur. danny was a mystery and, lucky for him, meg loved a good mystery. “ sure… keep thinking that buddy. ever think that maybe i’m flirting with you? it’d only be fair that you flirt back. ” again she smirked and shifted her gaze away to let him ponder such a thing. of course she wasn’t flirting with him. at least… she didn’t think she was. now that she thought about it though this was the sort of behavior she exhibited when she liked someone but- no. no. that was crazy. “ oh. gross. don’t use that phrase on me. we’re acquaintances. i don’t do friends, remember? ” but in her heart megara knew danny was the best friend she’d ever have and that scared the living shit out of her. his snort had the girls lips twitching in an enthusiastic smile which she tried so desperately to hide. unfortunately danny won that round. 

“ haven’t you heard? what’s mine is mine. i don’t like to share. but, fine, i won’t stamp it on you. people will just know. i also expect you to look as if you hate your job alright? i don’t want people thinking i treat others with… ” she swallowed and played as if she were sick, “ respect. ” meg’s eyebrow quirked in interest. “ you know about greek mythology don’t you? ” and for some reason her stomach turned as if she’d had some bad tuna salad. danny was getting more appealing by the minute and she knew that this was a very bad recipe for disaster.

“Not trying to do that. If I had, you’d know.” 

“You’re not all that intimidating as you think you are, y’know.” 

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

Danny had sincerely thought about telling someone what had happened to him while kidnapped. He was still considering telling Meg. Something told him not to do it, though. There was a voice in the back of his head that mentioned it was a bad idea. She could get hurt, and honestly, that was the last thing he needed right now. Danny could handle what they had thrown at him, but he didn’t want anyone else to have to handle it, too. As soon as the threats rolled out of Meg’s mouth, a deep laugh bubbled up from his chest. He rolled his eyes, clearly unfazed by them. “Yeah, yeah, don’t touch the hair, I got it.” He knew that she was mighty, but he wasn’t remotely threatened.

Danny highly doubt she’d ever lay a hand on him unless he deserved it. “Damn, that sounds pretty good. Maybe I’ll get us both one of those. I just like peanut butter.” He let her lead him into the kitchen as he glanced around at her cabin. It was different than his, that was for sure. He leaned against one of the countertops while eyeing Meg as she moved around. At the mention of his roommate, he perked up, nodding. “Yeah, I do. She’s pretty fucking awesome. While intimidation may work for you, Van would just laugh at me,” He paused as he thought about Vanellope’s boyfriend. “Plus, her boyfriend is big as hell. I’m not an idiot, so I leave her alone.” Although he wasn’t afraid to fight, he knew when to pick his battles. “Fireball!” He called out with an excitement. “Wait, aren’t you young as hell? Should you even be drinking?” He said with a teasing smile. 

if meg was an expert in anything then it was about bottling up her emotions and not letting anyone know what was going on inside. with danny she knew that what had happened to him was something incredibly terrifying. when she was terrified, meg didn’t want to talk about it so talking about what he was going through would have to wait until he was ready. all meg could do was be there. hug him, let him know he wasn’t alone, and hope that some day he might trust her enough to open up to her. meg felt sick to her stomach for wanting that someday to happen soon but at the same time she sort of didn’t mind the feelings that were spurring inside her. she had danny back and she wasn’t letting him go again. 

megara glared daggers up at him as his hand messed up her hair, the one thing she truly cared about on her body, and continued to act as if nothing had changed. “ touch my hair again and i will toss you right into that tree over there. i may be short but i am mighty, don’t forget that, fenton. ” she warned him. eventually a small smile played on her lips and she found her anger dissipating quicker than ever. danny wasn’t someone she could stay mad at and that worried her as well. “ or i’ll just force you to buy me peanut butter snickers because the gods know i deserve some fucking sugar. ” her diet had always been pretty strict, something she never really talked about with anyone, but just for today she was going to be the person she’d always tried to stop herself from being. meg smirked as they crossed the threshold, thankfully they weren’t too far off from her cabin. keeping her hand in his she led danny to the kitchen before letting him go. when she did, meg’s hand felt as if there were an empty space against it. shaking herself out of the sudden loneliness she smiled over at him. “ i think i terrify my roommates so theres always that tactic to get them out. though don’t you room with that vanellope chick? “ meg was sort of curious as to how he lived in his dorm. “ lucky ass gets a two bedroom cabin and i’m stuck with two other people. thankfully i sort of like them but, still. oh, also, we’ve got fireball… tequila… boxed wine… and that’s it. so pick your poison. ”

“You must want to be an astronaut or something?”

“They’re just so beautiful.. So many constellations and so many colors if you really were to travel beyond earths atmosphere.”

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

“Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Although the words fell from his mouth, he had to admit, he didn’t quite believe them. He wasn’t convinced that anyone could stop them. Before the kidnapping, he had been so sure that he could escape. Now, it was like something nagged at him, telling him no one could overthrow them. He just wasn’t going to admit that to Tink given how determined she was. However, once she began to question what his statement had meant, Danny just licked his lips. He wasn’t quite sure if he should mention what he was slowly learning for himself. “Um, just because. They’ve given up their techniques.” He shrugged as the lie came out of his mouth. He wasn’t ready, not yet. The more she persisted against the creators, the more his paranoia started to keep in. He pressed his finger against her lips to hush her. “Really, Tink, no.”

When she saw him run his fingers through his hair and told her to be honest, she worried something was wrong and it even showed on her face. The tears almost came back, but instead she shook her head and went back to hugging him. “We couldn’t have. They’re just big jerks with surveillance. Anyone with enough technology can seem too strong.” She argued, yet she was hugging Danny because she feared that she could be wrong and he could be right. Her stubborn brain wouldn’t let her admit to that, but what if there was a force out there stronger than her. She couldn’t give up though. Where there was a will there was a way and Tink had a strong will. They will make it out and they will make it out alive. The creators will pay for whatever they did to Danny and she will make sure of it. After mentally talking herself back up again, she let go to look at him once more. “How?” Her brow furrowed in confusion. When she shook her to get her attention she shook her head. “No. I want to Danny. They deserve to regret it. You mean a lot to me. I can’t just let them think what they did is okay.”

[dannyfentonftw-blog]

When Meg denied him secrets, Danny lips pouted. He had hoped that she’d been willing to open up - especially after their emotional night when he came back. But, then again, this is what he had expected with her. He contemplated her deal before sighing in agreement. “Alright, deal, but we should probably add more. I can’t bowl for shit.” He revealed to her. He knew that his lack of skills would show, but he figured he should be honest ahead of time. “Yeah, yeah, you little fireball. Calm down, I’ll hold the deal up.” He grinned over at her while realizing that he had come up with the perfect nickname for her. “You know what, I definitely think fireball is going to stick for you.” Danny was glad that he managed to get both a laugh and smile out of her. It wasn’t that it was rare for her to do it, just that he enjoyed instigating it. “I wouldn’t know, never had it before. So, we’re definitely going with pizza.” He said before disappearing to order the pizza. Once he finally came back, he sat down on a nearby bench, resting until his turn. “You gonna go any day now or?” He called out with a smirk.

“ sorry, bud. you get no secrets. none. unless, of course, we make this game a little interesting. ” megs gaze showed she was being incredibly serious over this. “ i get a strike, you have to tell me a secret. you get a strike, i’ll tell you one. sound like a fair deal? ” she asked danny as she turned to face him. her smile was the brightest it had been in awhile. they were about to have some fun, actual fun, and she couldn’t wait. “ i’m a big fan of deals. if someone can’t uphold their end, then i have complete reason to be angry. i love when i have a reason to be angry! ” she said it like a child describing why they loved christmas or fourth of july. danny’s laughter only fueled the fire that had slowly begun to fill her stomach whenever she was around him. her own lips twitched into a larger smile and she gave a nod of appreciation at her nickname. “ oh. gross. no lobster. ugh. those things are creepy as fuck. no. pizza is great. it’s always great. ”

“You’re the only one allowed to call me a teddy bear, you know that? I’ll kick anyone else’s ass that calls me that.” He grinned at her while chuckling softly. He had always treated Tink different, but he had felt that she deserved better. He put her in a category with his close friends, so she was going to get the best from him. It was only fair. Yet, for a split moment when her broken statement reached his ears, he wondered if all he did was hurt her. His smile dimmed as he licked his lips carefully. “Ok, I believe you.” His words were more of a whisper as the guilt chewed through him. “Good. Now I don’t have to chase you around.” He joked. 

“Yeah right. You’re like the sweetest guy I know. It’s why I think you’re more like a teddy bear than anything else.” She commented. Danny was tough when he needed to be and it honestly could be him just having a soft spot for her, but she always saw him as sweet and charming. “Please believe me.” Was all she said and for some reason when those three words escaped her lips it partly sounded heartbroken. “Why would I want to stray any further when I am here in your arms?” She asked, as she looked up at him with one of her arms at his shoulder.
