Don't Be Afraid
Chapter 1: Thumb sucker
Daisuke sat upright in bed. What the hell was that sound he was hearing? It was like soft cry, a mix between a moan and a whimper. He rubbed his eyes, and tried to ajust to the darkness in the room. He heard it again. He looked down on the floor. Ken was staying at his house for the week since his folks were on some sort of trip. It was summer, so there wasn't any school that would be getting in their way. *In case you didn't know, which i doubt, they go to 2 different schools* But, there was Ken on the ground, tossing and turning in his sleep, whimpering like a lost puppy. Daisuke wondered what he was dreaming or whatever. He crawled out of bed, and sat down on the floor next to Ken. He brushed his indigo locks away from his flustered face. Ken's frown got a bit warmer to his soft touch and he began to stir awake. His frantic eyes suddenly shot open and looked for whatever was touching him. Daisuke jerked back, startled by the sudden sign of life. "Daisuke!" Ken screamed. "What, what?" Daisuke stammered, startled and confused. Ken began to cry uncontrolably and Daisuke was left dumbfounded.
"What? What's wrong?" Daisuke asked, trying to make his voice sound understanding. "Don't let them hurt me!" Ken screamed through a wave of tears. "Who! I won't let anyone hurt you!" Daisuke said fantically searching the room. Ken's amethyst eyes let a few more crystal tears fall to the ground before he replied. He sat up and hugged Daisuke. Daisuke didn't understand. Maybe it was because he was pure of heart and would never understand. Maybe it was because Ken had lost his will to be of acceptance, and Daisuke was just now taking the ropes. Maybe it was because Ken was a troubled child, and Daisuke was free of worries. Daisuke didn't know. He didn't know the value of being afraid. Sure he had had a scare or two, but he had never truely been afraid. He was the child of courage. But the if the child of kindness could hate, then surely the child of courage could fear. Right? All he knew now was that he had to help somehow. "Ken, you don't have to be afraid," he whispered, "Because I'm not gonna let anyone hurt you."
Ken smiled, and snuggled up closer to Daisuke, soon he was sound asleep. Daisuke didn't want to sleep down there with him, but it wasn't like he had a choice. If he were to move he might awaken Ken. Since Ken just wasn't himself today... he shrugged it off and went to sleep.
Daisuke awoken to a knock at the door. "Get up, Squirt!" It was Jun. Ken was still asleep. He was sucking his thumb. Daisuke laughed quietly. He so badly wanted to snap a picture, but for Ken's sake, he didn't. That didn't mean he wouldn't tell anyone though... Ken stirred and slowly woke up. He sat up quickly pulling his thumb from his mouth. He looked up at Daisuke and blinked three times. He looked sooooo kawaii!! *Duh!* "Good morning, Linus," Daisuke laughed. Ken blinked again, he didn't get the joke. "You still suck your thumb," Daisuke chuckled standing up and stretching. Ken blushed and looked at the ground. "...so..." he whispered. "Nothing against you, but how would you like the press to know the imfamous Ken Ichijouji is a thumb sucker?!" Daisuke laughed, throwing a pillow at Ken. Ken just sat there and blinked, "Don't tell anyone please," he said, he evidently wasn't in the mood. Daisuke frowned, "Seriously, Ken, what's the matter?" "I guess I may be a little homesick," he said, even though he had only been there 2 days. "Well, we can go over and hang out at your house today if it'll make you feel any better," Daisuke suggested. "Naw, that won't be necessary," Ken smiled. They got dressed and went outside. They weren't in the mood to eat. *Daisuke has taken his first step in dieting ^_- !!*
They were supposed to meet at Hikari and Taichi's house*apartment* today. Ken walked slowly, he was so tired and so badly wanted to suck his thumb. But he didn't want the other kids to think he was a baby. He yawned. "Tired?" Daisuke asked. Ken nodded. "You know, we don't have to go," Daisuke stated trying to think of Ken's needs. "No, it's completely necessary," Ken replied, rubbing his eyes and yawning again. "Want me to carry you?" Daisuke laughed they were only 2 blocks away. "...Doesn't sound...like a bad idea..." Ken mumbled drearily. Daisuke let him climb up on his back, he wasn't heavy. Ken was practically asleep like that, head on Daisuke's shoulder, thumb popped in his mouth. Daisuke was worried. Maybe Ken was begining to catch a cold? Was he sick? Daisuke carefully walked up the steps in the apartment building complex. He got to the Yagami residence and knocked on the door. "It's open!" He heard Taichi shout from on the inside. "Some assistance!" Daisuke pleaded, he wouldn't be able to open the door without dropping Ken. The door opened quietly, Hikari peering through. "Oh," she squeaked when she saw Ken, "What happened?" she asked worrily. *that is a word right...?* "Oh, he's just exhausted, he hasn't been himself lately. I offered to carry him the rest of the way, and he literally fell asleep the moment his head hit my shoulder," Daisuke explained. "Well, c'mon, we can put him on my bed," Hikari suggested, Daisuke trailing behind, he wasn't in the mood to go gaga over her today. He walked in the room and everyone stared at him as he laid Ken gently on the bed. Ken mumbled something uncoherent because he obviously had his thumb in his mouth. They were the last arrivals, other than Mimi, obviously. *Who knows why? Oooo! I do!* "Sooooooo......... what's up...?" Daisuke laughed nervously, all eyes still on him and Ken. "Haha! Ken's a thumb sucker!" Taichi laughed suddenly. "It's perfectly normal," Jyou suggested, "a kid of his age would probably suck his thumb if he were in need of comfort of if he were distressed." "Poor kid," Sora mused, "He has been through a lot." "I'd suck my thumb too if I had to spend the week with Daisuke!" Takeru laughed. "Hey! What's that supposed to mean Tuck-er-u?!" Daisuke huffed. "Shh..." Hikari warned. "Sorry," Daisuke apologized.
To Be continued... Dun Dun Dun!
