Okay, its my first fic, so I'm not quite sure how I'll go with it.

Warning: this fic contains Yaoi, slash, whatever you want to call it, but its basically Kouji X Takuya, so if you don't like it, then don't read it...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Chapter 1: Haunted By Memories

The depression has taken a hold of him.

Ever since that fateful day.

Ever since the accident, when one of the digidestined, one of them, died.

His brother.

His twin.

Ever since the car killed him, not even Takuya could bring him out of the depression that had Kouji in its jaws.

The jaws of darkness.

Dragging him under.

Suffocating him.

He can't escape from the clouds of despair that are threatening to consume him.

And he can't stop the memories from running through his head.

They consumed him.

All he can do is remember, and hope that it goes away soon.

The Previous Week

The day had started out so perfectly, how on earth did it go so horribly wrong?

"Kouichi, hey, wake up!" Kouji shook Kouichi into the awake world.

"What?" grumbled Kouichi, not pleased at having been woken up from his dream, it was Izumi, I've been dreaming about Izumi for ages now, maybe I should finally work up the courage and ask her out.

"So, you were dreaming about Izumi again, weren't you bro?" Kouji said, laughing at the shocked look Kouichi gave him.

"Is it really that obvious?" Kouichi asked, feeling his face start to burn.

"Yea, bro it is" Kouji laughed as his brother tried to hide the red tint on his face.

"So you woke me up just to embarrass me about my dream, huh?" Kouichi grumbled at Kouji, who was still laughing at his twin.

The blue/black longhaired teen grinned as he shook his head and said, "Nah, that wasn't all of it anyway, I woke you to tell you that I'm going to the park with Takuya."

"Well, couldn't you have just left a note?" grumbled Kouichi, eager to get back to his dream, and to Izumi.

"No, because I know how you never see the notes, and then you blame me for not telling you where I was" Kouji said reasonably, heading to the door, "And now I'll let you get back to your beauty sleep!"

Kouichi threw a pillow at him, but it only hit the door closing behind Kouji.

Kouichi mumbled something about getting back to Izumi, then pulled the blankets over his head and went back to sleep.

Kouji just shook his head and smiled, looking forward to a day alone with his koi, Takuya.

Kouji was, literally, waiting by the front door for his koi to turn up. And when he finally did hear Takuya's footsteps on the path, he flung the door open and raced into Takuya's arms, as he had stopped and spread his arms waiting for Kouji.

"You took your time Kuya-kun" Kouji said, glaring at him, but still grinning to show that he wasn't really mad.

"Well Kouji-kun, you told me to be here at 8.30 am, and ere I am, if you wanted me to get here earlier, you should've just said so" Takuya replied, laughing a bit, and pulling Kouji's hair out of its ponytail.

Kouji pulled back a bit and shook his head to get the now-free hair out of his eyes. But all it did was make even more hair get in the way.

Takuya laughed at Kouji's failed attempt to rid his face of the shoulder length hair so he put his hand up and tucked the hair behind Kouji's ear, so it would stay out of his face, and which sent a shiver down Kouji's back.

"C'mon, lets go." Kouji grumbled at Takuya, annoyed that his koi could get his hair to behave when he couldn't.

Takuya just laughed and slipped his arm round Kouji's waist and pulled him closer.

Kouji grinned and leaned into the embrace. They walked like that until they got to the park, where they sat down against a tree, in the shade of it, and Kouji snuggled into Takuya's chest, who grinned down at him and wrapped his arms around Kouji protectively.

They sat like that, quietly, for a long time, until Takuya noticed that the sun had moved so much that they were now in the sun and it was getting a bit hot.

Takuya looked down at his koi, and was mildly amused to find that Kouji had fallen asleep on him. He chuckled softly and was hesitant to move just et, as his koi looked so peaceful and, according to Kouichi, Kouji hadn't had much sleep lately, due to his nightmares which woke both twins up in the middle of the night when Kouji wakes up screaming and drenched in a cold sweat. But he refused to talk about the nightmares to Kouichi, whenever asked, he would either walk away, or change the subject.

But, looking down at him now, Takuya noticed the frown forming on Kouji's face, and he started to get restless, almost as if he were running away from something. Kouji started to murmur inaudible phrases, so Takuya leaned down to listen to him and heard "no…not Kouichi…leave him alone…Kouichi…don't leave me…no…KOUICHI!" and then Kouji woke up with a start and sat up, smashing his forehead into Takuya's, as he had still been leaning down to listen to what Kouji was saying.

"Oww!" Takuya said, leaning back and rubbing his forehead, "What was all that about, Kouji-kun?"

"What?" Kouji said, surprised that Takuya had been leaning over him, who had been remembering the memories of the nightmare and hadn't heard what Takuya had asked, and hadn't even noticed that his forehead was really hurting.

"What were you dreaming of Kouji-kun?" Takuya asked again, smiling down at him, concern filling his eyes as he noticed that Kouji was drenched in sweat.

"N-nothing Kuya-kun, I-it was just a nightmare that I've been having lately, it-its nothing, really," Kouji tried to hide the fact that he was scared out of his mind about the dream, but he didn't want Takuya worrying about it, "We should probably head back now Kuya-kun."

"Alrighty then Kouji, lets go" Takuya said, waiting for Kouji to move so he could get up, and planting a kiss on his forehead before he moved.

"Oww, why is my head hurting?" Kouji exclaimed, as Takuya had kissed the spot where they smashed heads.

"Umm, well you woke up, and I was trying to hear what you were saying, and we smashed heads, I'm surprised you didn't notice it sooner, its already starting to bruise." Takuya said, smiling a little.

Kouji got up, and put out his hand to help Takuya up, who took it and scrambled up and wrapped Kouji up in a big hug. Kouji returned the hug and captured Takuya's lips with his own in a passionate kiss. Takuya, thrilled at having Kouji kissing him out in the open like this, welcomed it and added to its intense passion. Sliding his hands up Kouji's back under his shirt, Takuya heard Kouji moan and lean into him more.

Takuya smiled and broke away so they could breathe, and Kouji leaned against him.

That's it for now, sorry I left it there like that, gotta go and do other stuff now.

Let me know what you think of it please, its my first fic, and try not to flame me too hard if you really hate it that much.

If enough people review it, and like it, I will probably continue it, I don't know how long it will be, but if anyone gets hooked on it, and want to know how it ends up, let me know.
