Andy's POV

I wake up with my mate on one side of the bed, me on the other, and our daughter in between. I hear a knock on the door and I go to answer it. When I do, I see Ember and Kitty on the other side.

"Come on in, I'll get Danny up. Elle decided that last night she wanted to sleep with us so she'll be in our room instead of hers." I inform them. We realized that we've missed too much school recently, and as much as we would love to spend the day with our daughter, we need to go to school. Luckily, it's Friday, so we will have the entire weekend to spend together. Ember and Kitty agreed to watch her while we went to school. "Feel free to help yourselves to anything in the kitchen, the bathroom is down this hall, third door on the left. If you decide to read one of the books, please put it back where you got it." I tell them.

They nod, and I go back into our room to wake Danny. I float up and lay on top of him, messing with his hair. "Good morning, my love." I whisper in his ear.

"It would be if we didn't have to get up." he mumbles back. I get off of him so he can get up and get ready.

"I'll go make some oatmeal." I tell him. He nods and I go to the kitchen. After ten minutes, he comes out to trade places so I can get ready.

"You guy's hungry?" I hear him ask Ember and Kitty.

"Just a little." Kitty admits.

He laughs and I hear the cupboard shut. When I get out, I see them all sitting at the table eating, one bowl at an empty seat waiting for me. Eventually, it's time to go. Danny and I each kiss Elle's head before leaving. We get to school and I hear Danny groan.

"What?" I ask him.

"See that blond guy?" he asks, pointing to a guy with blond hair, blue eyes, a red letterman's jacket, and an overly bulky build. I nod. "His name is Dash. He's one of the A-listers, and the biggest bully in the school."

"You mean he bullies you? Why don't you fight back? You could totally take him." I ask.

"Because, he's human. If I'm not careful, I could seriously hurt him. Especially now that my powers are supposed to be increasing. I don't know my own strength anymore." He tells me helplessly.

"I see how that could be a problem. Good thing you have me now." I smirk at him. We start walking towards the school, and the jock and the girl hanging off his arm both catch sight of us.

"Well hello there cutie. You need to get away from that loser. You're too cool to be hanging out with him." the girl says.

"Sorry Danny, I didn't realize that I took away from your looks. I'll go find Sam and Tucker while you hang out with them." I say. I know what they meant, but that doesn't mean I was going to make things easy for them.

"Wait man. She meant you. Fenturd is the loser. You seem cool though." he asks. "If you want, you can help us put his head in the toilet."

"Yeah, and I'm sure the A-list girls will love you. You'll have your pick of any of them for a girlfriend. Even me." She says, batting her lashes. I smirk.

"Sorry to disappoint then. I would be flattered, but I'm in a relationship." I inform.

"Well that's alright you can bring her along." the girl says.

"Who said it was a she?" Danny asks, coming from behind me and grabbing my hand.

"No way! You're gay? Gross!" she screams running away, Dash not far behind.

"Hey guys." we hear from behind us. "I didn't realize you were going public at school. You know that will just make the bullying worse right?" Sam questions.

"Yes, or he would be to weirded out to touch us. Might get infected by the gay virus." I say.

"You do make a good point." Tucker says. We all walk to class.

Danny's POV

We get through the rest of the school day to find that Dash and the A-listers avoid us like the plague. It turns out that Andy was right, and news spreads fast. The fact that Andy and I hold hands while walking to class tends to speed up the news travel.

It's kind of funny how some people stay as far away from us as they can, while others praise us for being so open about our relationship. We get to Fenton Works with intentions of going to the library to see Danielle, but are unfortunately greeted by the sight of the Fentons unloading the GAV. I groan, put on a smile, and walk up to my 'parents'.

"Mom, dad, I wasn't expecting you to be home until later tonight."

"We weren't going to be home till nine, but we got a call from the school saying that you haven't been to school except Tuesday and today. I hope you have a good reason for that." Maddie says with a growl. I fight the urge to roll my eyes.

"I was sick. I thought I got over it Tuesday but it came back on Wednesday. I decided it was better to stay home yesterday just in case. I'm fine now." I lie through my teeth and only wish I felt slightly bad about it since she is technically my mom, but I don't feel bad. "Hey, Andrew's parents are to going out of the country for a year and we were wondering if he could stay with us so he can finish out senior year. He can stay with me in my room."

"I guess it's alright since you're both boys, we won't have to worry about you guys staying in the same room. I don't have any problem with it. What about you Mads?" Jack says.

"I think it would be wonderful to have someone as well behaved as Andrew stay with us." She says. "When is he moving in? Do guys need help moving his stuff?"

"You know, we appreciate the offer, but we did that yesterday." I tell them.

"How did you know we would say yes?" Jack asks confused.

"I didn't, but I really hoped you would." I give them a cheeky fake smile, grab Andy's hand, and drag him as fast as I can into my room.

"When did this happen?" Andy asks. I give him a crooked smile.

"Yesterday, weren't you listening?" He slaps my arm. "Fine. I decided it would be easier to get back and forth from the GZ if we didn't have to sneak you in every day after school. Besides, I mastered a new power today." I tell him looking proud.

"Really? What is it?" he asks.

I concentrate on our room in the Library. I direct my ectoplasm from my hand, to the air in front of me in a spiral motion. A portal opens up in front of us leading to our room.

"That's what you were doing all day! I was wondering why you kept making circular motions with your hands and ectoplasm."

"Yeah, I've been pranking the girls all day." I tell him grinning. "Let's go before it closes, I can't keep it open long."

We write a note saying we went to Sam's house for the night, leave it in my room, and go through the portal silently. We go to the door, go invisible, and phase through. We start doing little things to mess with the girls, who are sitting on the couch reading. I move Elle's pages backwards a few.

"What was that?" She jumps up.

"What?" Em asks.

"My pages turned themselves backwards."

"What is up with this lair? It's alwa- EEEH!" Kitty screeches. "Something is on my back!"

"Turn around!" Em shouts. "I don't see anything t-there. Is anyone else cold?" I blew a cold breath towards her, making sure to make it more like a strong breeze.

After that, we can't help it anymore. We burst out laughing, dropping our invisibility, and falling to the floor. We are met with three angry female glares, but it only fuels the laughter.

"When did you to get here?" Em asks.

"L-like... t-ten minutes... ago." Andy says between laughs.

"How did you get here?" Kitty asks.

"I-I can make... portals now." I tell them.

"So it was you doing all those things today!" Next thing we know, there is a bunch of ectoblasts aimed our way.

"Ow! What was that for?!" we ask together. They give us the 'are you kidding me' look.

"Okay yeah, we probably deserved that." Andy says.

"Daddy! Papa! Is it time to have fun?!" Elle runs and jumps into Andy's arms. Ember and Kitty take this as there chance to leave and start their girls night.

"Yes Elle, today and tomorrow, we can have all kinds of fun." he tells her.

"What about Sunday?" she asks.

"Sunday, we are going to Pariah's Keep to get fitted." I tell her.

"Your daddy is going to be crowned king of the ghost zone on Wednesday. You are going to be princess so you have to look nice."

"Really! You're going to be king?!" She asks.

"You know it." I say puffing out my chest and making a funny face. "I'm gonna be the best king there ever was." She giggles at my antics. "So," I grab her from my mate and put her on my shoulders. "What do you want for dinner?"

"Hmm. I don't really know. Vlad only ever gave me sandwiches, and I ate what I could find while I was on the streets."

"Have you ever had Chinese food?"

"No. I never quite got to China." she informs. Andy and I share a grin. It's our favorite kind of food, and we are sure, that being our daughter, she will have gotten the taste for it. We decide to take her to our favorite chinese buffet.

Danny's POV

I watch as my daughter stuffs lomein in her mouth like it's going out of style.

"This is so good." she says around her mouthful.

We laugh and finish eating, while devoting all our attention to the three year old that stole both our hearts. As we are leaving the restaurant, I see the GAV coming around the corner. They pull into the driveway, and I pull my family into the alley. My parents jump out with a device in their hands.

"Of course this is where he is. It's his favorite restaurant. But where did he get the money to eat here?" Maddie questions.

"I don't know Mads, but it sure is a good thing we put that tracker on his cell phone." Jack replies.

"Fuck." I mumble. "Sorry Elle, don't say that."

"Jack, why do you think Danny lied about where he was going?"

"I don't know. But we need to find him fast. I don't want the Wisconsin ghost getting to him before we do."

I set my phone on the ground, and I make a portal to the movie theater. We go inside and get tickets to Baby Boss, since that's what Elle wanted to see. By the time it's over, she is laying across our laps, and sleeping soundly. Andy picks her up, and I grab our things. We take her home, and tuck her into her own bed. Then we go to bed ourselves, it was a long day and we are both out as soon as our heads hit the pillows.

~~~Line Break~~~

When I wake up, Andy is on top of me. I smile and brush the hair out of his face, and kissing his forehead. He stirs and looks up at me.

"Good morning, sleepy head." I tell him.

"G'mornin." He mumbles sleepily. He rolls off of me and I sit up. "You do know you're parents are going to kill us after the stunt we pulled last night right?"

"They aren't my parents. I don't really care what they think. I am so done with them."

"And here I thought you were the one who woke up on the right side of the bed this morning."

"I wouldn't say that. I just woke up to an amazing view." he blushes at this. I laugh and lean in for a kiss.

"Eww! Get a room!" Elle yells from the doorway. I smile against his lips.

"We had one, but it seems to have turned into a hangout spot for a three year old." I say, kissing Andrew one more time before turning towards our intruder. "And what brings you in here this fine morning?"

"I was going to wake you guys up, but it seems that's not going to be a problem." She says in the most sassy tone she could muster.

"See, I told you she got your sassy side." I look over to see Andrew with mock hurt on his face.

"Sassy? Me? Why I'd never be." He exclaims dramatically. We all laugh.

"So Elle, are you ready to meet your grandparents?" I ask.

"Yeah! Let's go! Let's go!" She yells excitedly while jumping onto us.

"Well you have to get out first so we can get dressed." Andy tells her.

"But papa, aren't one of you going to have to go out so that the other can change?" Our faces go red for the simple fact that it's our innocent, three year old baby girl who just asked that question.

"It's okay because we're adults." I tell her.

"So what if I need help? You can't see me cause I'm a kid." She says confused.

"Elle, when Vlad created you, did he help you get dressed?" I ask.

"Y-yes." She responds.

"Did someone at the Far Frozen help you change the other day? And Ember and Kitty yesterday?" She nods.

"Do you know how to dress yourself?" We ask together.

"N-no." We smile.

"Come on. I can help you change, your grandmother wants to take you shopping today to get you new clothes. The ones they gave you at the Far Frozen should work for today." I take her hand, and lead her to her room.

When we are all ready to go, we head towards Pandora's acropolis. As we near, I can't stop fingering the object in my pocket. My mind flashes back to the conversation with my dad at the Far Frozen a couple of days ago.

"Son, we need to talk. On Wednesday you will be named king. Your lair will combine with your mates, and you will move there with him permanently once you graduate. Every great king, needs someone by their side. I know you have already thought about this a lot, but don't know if it's the right decision." He tells me.

"So, you think it's a good idea?" I ask.

"Would it make you happy?"

"What kind of question is that? Of course it would. I'm more worried about making things awkward if he doesn't feel the same way. What am I saying, if you're suggesting it, then it will be fine right." I expect him to be vague and mysterious, so I am surprised when he answers head on.

"It's definitely a good idea." He tells me. I can't help but tackle him in a bone crushing hug.

"Thank you so much!"

"Of course. And might I suggest the gardens of your mother's acropolis, they are quite beautiful this time of year. She intends to meet you there on Saturday for a shopping trip with Danielle. You could do it the same time." He suggests.

"That's a great idea! Thanks so much dad!"

Today is the day and I'm really nervous. He explained how things are different with ghosts. He told me everything I needed to know, but what if I forgot something, or just because he thought it was a good idea, doesn't mean things would turn out how I hope. We land and I knock on the door. Immediately, it opens to reveal my mother in an ancient grecian style dress. She has replaced her helmet, with a headband made of lotus flowers.

"Daniel, Ghostwriter, I'm so happy to see you. And you must be Danielle. It's nice to meet you. My name is Pandora, but you can call me grandma."

"N-nice to meet you to, g-grandma." Elle stutters nervously. "You can call me Elle. Daddy and Papa do."

"Of course dear. Oh and Daniel, your father talked to me. You two should feel free to roam around here as you please." She gives me a knowing smirk and I groan.

"He only tells people things when someone isn't looking for help." I tell her while pouting. I get confused looks from Danielle and Andrew, but mom laughs at my expense.

"Come on Andy. Let's leave the girls to their shopping."

I grab his hand and start leading him through the gardens to my favorite spot. When we arrive, I sit on the bench with Andy next to me.

"So are you going to tell me what that was all about?" he asks.

"S-sort of. Not yet though."

"Okay, I'm just going to drop it for now because I am really confused."

"Hopefully not for long."

"Why?"

"The coronation is coming up." It sounds like a change of subject, the way I bring it up.

"Yes. In four days." He decides to ignore it.

"So, I talked to my dad. He said we can accomplish more than one thing at the coronation if we decide to."

"What do you mean?" I take a deep breath. Once I do this, there's no turning back. I reach in my pocket, and grab the object that has been burning a hole in it all day.

"Andrew, I've enjoyed the time we've spent getting to know each other so much. When I found out we were mates, I couldn't have been happier. Now I'm going to be king, and I won't be able to do it alone. I would like you to be by my side for everything, good or bad, thick and thin, so, will you marry me?" I ask holding up a silver chain with a diamond shaped pendant made with ectoplasm infused ice, to keep it from melting.

His hand goes to his mouth and he looks me in the eyes. He seems to be holding back tears. He nods his head yes before pulling me into a kiss. It lasts for about five minutes before we finally break apart. I lift up the pendant and place it around his neck. I don't think I've ever seen him smile so much, and he can probably say the same about me.
