A Real Connection

Things had been looking up since the ghosts that normally haunted Amity Park had called a truce in exchange for a relative peace in both the Zone and on earth.

Ghosts could come through the portals, both naturally occurring or otherwise, and Phantom would only "escort" them out if they caused trouble in his domain. Most knew better than to cause any real danger, but minor things like flying through the streets in the dead of night or visiting the ol' stomping grounds wasn't enough to get Phantom to appear and force anyone back into the Ghost Zone via thermos.

It was starting to become comfortable. Slowly, ghosts were just part of living in Amity Park. They wouldn't hurt you or take your things unless a particular malevolence overtook them which was actually quite rare.

During the full moon it seemed the chance of something strange happening rose, lit up and powered by the brightened night sky.

Maybe ghosts were getting too comfortable with being around people.

Maybe that was why on one of these moonlit nights, Phantom himself was seen carrying someone.

It was strange that his eyes glowed red instead of green, but there didn't seem to be an evil in them. It could be chalked up to the moon.

It was strange that the body he carried wasn't clinging to him as the hero whisked them away as if rescuing them from a ghost attack.

No, tonight was quiet and peaceful just like the sleeping Danny Fenton.

It was most certainly Fenton, unmistakably so with black hair under the silver moon light and then the neon lights of the FENTON WORKS sign. Phantom was so careful approaching the building and adjusting his grip around the teen as if he were something precious even pushing the hair from his eyes before phasing through the brick.

Bystanders swore that the ghost boy did not come back out into the night.

The next day, rumors and a blurry picture had circulated around Casper High and the only thing anyone wanted to learn at school was whether it was true.

Was Danny Fenton dating the ghost boy?

Flustered, Danny's cheeks turned pink as he was surrounded at his homeroom desk.

"I-of course not! He's a ghost!"

Ah, forbidden love. His parents hunted ghosts after all, a real life Romeo and Juliet situation.

The blush reached his ears.

"That's ridiculous!"

Ah, oh course it was.

Wink wink, nudge nudge.

The questions slowed and steeped into whispers until gym when a lesser ghost, one that wasn't strong enough to have a solid form but dense enough to radiate a certain evil, burst in and shrieked a horrific sound that echoed across the scuffed wood.

Danny Fenton was present for the roll call, but gone when Tetslaff ushered each student out the fire exits.

Phantom appeared, removed the ghost, then disappeared again. Only then did Fenton come out of hiding.

Of course.

It was so obvious.

Danny Fenton calls Phantom for help.

Fenton of course denied this.

"What? Of course not, I just had to go... To the bathroom!"

An obvious lie. Unless, as Wes screamed repeatedly, there was more to it then that... Phantom couldn't possibly have a cellphone to be called with, right?

Panic bloomed across pale features. That blush appeared again and it really was endearing as Fenton stammered.

"Actually yeah! I do call him... He just... Doesn't have a phone so I have to contact him in a different way. He can sense when I need him to come. We're connected-"

Manson shoved a hand over the boy's mouth hissing something but it was too late.

It was sweet. It was SO SWEET! Phantom could sense his beloved, sense his danger and comes immediately to save him! Fenton had such a deep connection with Phantom and it was something that the entire school could respect. After all, most people dream of finding love that strong and who were they to judge Fenton now that he'd found it with the ghost boy?

The day went on, then a week. Danny Fenton blushed and covered his face every time Phantom was mentioned.

Phantom denied their connection with a very similar blush.

Even so, there was still an air of relief when Fenton got up during a ghost attack and he got a pat on the shoulder as he passed by his classmates instead of odd looks.

Then Fenton's parents and even the Red Huntress had stopped attacking Phantom when he did his nightly patrols in favor of asking pointed questions about his intentions with the human boy.

Phantom balked but that soft smile didn't fool anyone, like he knew something they didn't.

"I would never hurt Danny Fenton."

And just like that, Amity Park found itself rocked gently with an easy sense of peace.

If a ghost and a human could love each other, then anything was possible.

Love really was an incredible thing.
