Daisuke's POV
"Itai!" I yelped as I tripped on something, landing flat on my face and twisting my ankle in the process, "Aw! Aw! Aw! Aw! OUCH!!" I continued to yell as I rubbed my poor ankle, I knew it was twisted since it hurt so much. "Hey Daisuke!" yelled a friend of mine when he heard me screaming in pain, it was Takeshi Saehara, one of my childhood friends, he ran to me in an awkward fashion(well let's just say he runs funnily /swear drop/). "Hey Daisuke what's wrong? The whole class probably heard you," he said cheerfully, much to my annoyance. "My ankle's twisted that's what's wrong! I probably tripped on my shoe laces or something."
" Oh..." said Takeshi after a long pause, by that time I was already on my feet, limping to the nurse's office. "Hey wait for me!" Takeshi noticed me moving and offered to help me as we went to the destination, I put a hand on his shoulder and was surprised(as in disgusted) at how dirty his sports t-shirt was, he really liked gym class I guess. Most of the students saw me limping and kept on bugging me about what exactly happened, and they kept on saying things like ," Oh poor Daisuke's hurt," or "My gosh Daisuke-kun you better go see the nurse(as if I wasn't already going to)". Suddenly the prospect of getting both my ankles twisted wasn't such a bad idea.
I groaned when I realize that the nurse's office was further than I expected, I told Takeshi that I could manage myself once we got into the building, and thankfully he wasn't so stubborn to protest. Here I was, Daisuke Niwa, limping like a fool, I felt mad at myself, no because I looked like a total baka who was about to fall at every step I take, but because I couldn't stand the pain, I kept making those hissing sound when you're in pain. "You're pathetic Daisuke Niwa," I said to myself.
I knocked politely on the door, and a sweet voice told me to come in. It was Miss Freederet, the school nurse obviously, " Well what do we have here Daisuke?" She said cheerfully. " Well I have a twisted ankle, Miss." Miss Freederet made an enlightened expression, and quickly grabbed her medical supplies and started treated me, dabbing some ointment and wrapping my foot in a bandage. Tightly. " There you go!" She said cheerfully as she slapped my back three times(strong slaps to boot). " Now go get some rest and lie down on one of the beds, I have some computer games to play."
Now at first glance you would assume that the fair Miss Freederet would be a dainty, quiet, quaint and lady like woman. WRONG! She was really eccentric, and liked to do odd things for a lady, such as playing video games, participating in sports, eating large amount of food and NOT get fat, whipping children into doing their homeworks(ok scratch the last part that was probably just my imagination) and she's extremely naive sometimes, well who isn't in this school? I shook my head and sighed when I saw her concentrating on the computer game she was playing and ignoring everything else. I shrugged and decided to follow her advice and rest.
As I slumped down on the cozy white bed, someone beside me said," Daisuke did you hurt yourself in gym class again?" I jerked my head and sat up straight as I was immediately pleased to see a handsome male student who had gorgeous violet hair that matched his amethyst eyes, and he had a thin and slender body. He was Dark Mousy, my very best friend in the whole wide world. "DARK!!" I yelled out happily, grinning as I did, " Yeah I kinda twisted my ankle when I tripped on something. So what are you here for?"
" Well I was getting bored in gym class and decided to sneak into here, I wanted to lie to Miss Freederet but I think she predicted it and just told me to do whatever I want. She was in a really intense computer game." Both of us laughed, but we soon stopped when Miss Freederet yelled out, " Would you two just shoosh?! Can't you see that the final boss is PAWNING me?!" I sighed quietly when I heard her, recovering when I noticed Dark staring at me. " You've been cutting yourself again haven't you Daisuke?" said Dark plainly, I frowned, my eyebrows arched downwards," That's none of your business Dark." Obviously I didn't want to talk about it. " Daisuke you know you're not supposed to do that, I'm really worried about you. Look, I won't hurt your feelings by mentioning your past, but Daisuke, but torturing yourself like that isn't right."
" I know that..." I grumbled as I look away, trying to hide my tears from Dark, memories of my past started appearing in my mind, and I started to whimper and sob. I couldn't control my emotions and started crying, as silently as I could, but Dark heard me and went to my side, putting a hand around me, " It's ok Daisuke don't cry, you did nothing wrong, it wasn't your fault, please Daisuke, I'm here for you I'm your best friend, you can always count on me if you need my help."
Just then the school bell rang, signaling the end of today's lessons, I rubbed away my tears and told Dark that he should go home first, and I lied that I was okay and there was no need to worry. He believed me and waved goodbye as he exited the office, I responded in kind with a fake smile. I wasn't fine nor okay, but I didn't want to be a burden to my best friend. I scratched my head in frustration as I felt completely worthless and useless, the very same feeling I felt two years ago, when my life was completely shattered...
Dark's POV
I regretted when I left Daisuke, even though he told me that he was going to be fine, I wasn't so sure about that. Daisuke's past was a sad one, two years ago, he saw his family's dead body and his house blew up with his very own eyes, for what reason did the culprits massacre Daisuke's family he never told me, but that day Daisuke didn't cry, even though the grief and anguish was plain on his face. He never got over it, and he never chose to talk to anyone about it, he never mentioned how sad he was, which is what worries me so much.
The way he deals with it is by cutting himself non-stop, I won't say he's being irrational, because he lost the people who were close to him, but I just wish he would someday realize that he's not alone to bear the burden, he has friends to share the pain with. He has me. He can always count on me to never leave his side.
Why am I sounding so mushy? Well that's obvious, because I, Dark Mousy, am madly in love with that kawaii red-headed tenshi, Daisuke Niwa. At first, I doubted my feelings, because I was best friends with him for so long, and I thought that I ONLY viewed him as a best friend, but gradually the feeling never left instead it grew, and before long I found out that I couldn't take my eyes off him. I wanted so much to smother him in hot wet kisses, and I wanted him to be mine so badly.But I wasn't sure he would reciprocrate my feelings and I didn't dare to risk our friendship.
Okay back to reality, school was out and everyone was already walking and talking with each other, all headed for the exit while some of them were to stay back for daily cleaning duties(of course I never actually performed those tasks). The lessons were done and everyone was happily going home, when I saw a couple holding hands with each other and walking together, I couldn't help but feel envious of them. Oh well, I didn't have time to think about that because the Harada twins and Mio Hio ran straight to me.
" Hey Dark how's it going?" said Mio in her typical Japanese slash American accent(uhh...yeah it was half Japanese and half America. Heh.) as we both did a high five. Mio was a foreign exchange student from America, she was very active in sports and was a bit of a tomboy, she was also a friendly rival of Riku, both of them constantly tried to beat each other at their own games, but they were the best of friends. " Fine," I replied casually, " And what brings the three beautiful ladies to the nurse's office?"
" Well we heard that Daisuke twisted his ankle and since we have nothing to do when we go home we decided to visit him," said the red-haired Risa cheerfully(oh yeah, forget to mention, Mio was living with the Harada twins). She started to go in when I blocked her, " Daisuke's fine, I can assure you. But he wants some alone time so we shouldn't bother him." " He's still dreading over 'that' huh?" said Riku. I nodded somewhat sadly.
"Well it can't be helped then...Come one Risa, Mio, let's go and grab something to eat at Krad's," and they raced for the exit, well, except Risa, she couldn't keep up with them. I gave one last glance at the nurse's office, reluctant to leave Daisuke, and then went to grab my bag to go home. Alone.
