Wes and Danny decided that they would go back to Wes's place to work on the project. So the two of them walked in heavy silence to the Westons' apartment. Wes tried to initiate conversation multiple times, but Danny usually only responded with simple answers, unwilling to talk to the red-headed boy. Soon enough, they reached their destination, and Wes showed Danny to his room. He let Danny walk in first, who promptly froze in the doorway. “Uh... Danny?” Wes said, “Are you okay?” “I think the real question is if you're okay.” “What?” Wes said, thoroughly confused. “I mean, sure, I have some ghost stuff in my room – but that's only because of my parents. This... this is another level of unhealthy.” Ghost stuff? What was he talking ab – oh, …show more content…
Danny shrugged, sitting on Wes's bed, “Don't bother.” He suddenly broke into a grin, “I mean, at least you got my good side.” L I N E B R E A K Ten days later, and Wes still hadn't pulled down his 'Phantom Gallery' as Danny had dubbed it. Sure, it was mortifying for when he had unexpected visitors, but Wes wasn't willing to let his personal embarrassment get in the way of his precious research.

So is there anyway you can find it in your heart to forgive me?” “Forgive you for what? Look, Valerie, I don't know what you think is going on, but I'm not Phantom.
