A/N: My first song fic. I'm pretty happy about it too. Its about Dark singing to Krad about it being okay if Krad were gay. Kinda cute, but sometimes they may be OOC.
Disclaimer: The song and the anime do not belong to me, sadly.

Krad sat down, a book in hand.
"Ah," he sighed, "An afternoon with my favorite book: Broadway Musicals of the 1940s. No roommate to bother me. How can it get any better than this?"
He began to read his book. Suddenly, the door swung open and in walked his best friend, Dark.
"Oh, hi Krad!" he called through to him.
Krad groaned. "Hi, Dark."
"You'll never guessed what happened to me on the subway this morning," Dark called as he dropped his bag onto the floor before closing the door shut. "This guy was smiling and me and talking to me."
"Hmm, that's very interesting." Sarcasm was clearly in his voice, but Dark did not even notice.
"He was being really friendly," Dark continued as he walked towards the blond. "And I think he was coming on to me. I think he might've thought I was gay!"
Krad froze. He glanced up at Dark who was grinning rather stupidly. "So, why are you telling me this?"
Dark shrugged, still grinning.
"Why should I care?" Krad asked, mostly himself. "I don't care," he answered himself. He quickly decided to change the subject. "What did you have for lunch today?"
"Oh, you don't have to get all defensive about it, Krad…" Dark began when Krad cut in.
"I'm not getting defensive." Blushing, Krad looked back down at his book. "Why do I care about some gay guy you met, okay? I'm trying to read."
Dark was turning around and around in the computer chair, then stopped to say: "Oh, I didn't mean anything by it, Krad. I just think that it's something we should be able to talk about."
"Well, I don't want to talk about it, Dark!" Krad said, his voice raising. "This conversation is over!"
"Yeah, but…"
"Over!"
Dark sighed and Krad continued to read his book.
"Okay," Dark grinned, a twinkle in his eye. "But just so you know…."
Suddenly Dark began to sing.
"If you were gay
That'd be okay.
I mean 'cause, hey,
I'd like you anyway."
Krad buried himself into the book and tried hard to concentrate on reading it, but Dark just would not let him.
"Because you see,
If it were me,
I would feel free
To say that I was gay,
(But I'm not gay)"
Dark was bobbing his head along as he hummed the instrumental part of the song.
"Dark, please!" Krad groaned, "I'm trying to read."
Krad glanced up at Dark, who was staring at him, still humming. The grin on Dark's face made him, somehow, annoyed. "What?!" Krad shouted.
"If you were queer." Dark continued.
Krad lolled his head to the side and grumbled, "Ah! Dark!"
"I'd still be here."
"Dark," Krad hollered, "I'm trying to read this book."
"Year after year," Dark sang, smiling big.
"Dark!"
"Because you're dear to me."
"Argh," Krad glowered, once again trying to ignore the childish song his friend was singing.
"And I know that you," Dark sang, standing up and walking towards the annoyed Krad.
"What?" Krad asked, bemused.
"Would accept me too." Dark sat down next to him.
Krad raised an eyebrow and cocked his head to the side. "I would?"
"If I told you today,
'Hey! Guess what?!
I'm gay!'"
Krad cringed when he heard Dark's high pitch and turned his attention back to his book.
"(But I'm not gay.)"
Dark was engrossed in song and captured in the moment so he reached over and wrapped his arms around Krad's shoulders in an embrace.
"I'm happy
Just being with you."
In an attempt to drown out Dark's annoying song, Krad read aloud, "High Button Shoes, Pal Joey…" But his effort was in vain because Dark's singing was hard to tune out.
"So what should it
Matter to me
What you do in bed
With guys?"
Krad threw his book on the floor and squirmed out of Dark's hold, all the while saying, "Dark, that's gross!"
Finally getting out of Dark's grasp Krad stood up. Dark grinned and stood up as well, meeting the red-faced blond eye-to-eye.
"No it's not!" Dark said.
Krad, angrily walked away only to have Dark follow him, still singing.
"If you were gay
I'd shout hooray!"
Krad put his hands over his ears and quickened his steps as he made his way up the stairs to his room. "I'm not listening," Krad muttered angrily.
"And here I'd stay," Dark sang loudly, making it difficult for the blonde to tune it out.
"La la la la!" Krad hummed, just as loud, as another feeble attempt to tune out the violet-head's voice.
Dark swiftly passed up Krad and stopped in front of him, singing: "But I wouldn't get in your way."
"Aaah!" Krad shrieked, surprised by Dark's sudden apparition in font of him. Krad, turned and ran back down the stairs, trying, once more, to get away from the persistent thief.
Dark's happy tune made its way down the stairs and Krad heard Dark singing:
"You can count on me
To always be
Beside you everyday
To tell you its okay."
Dark's voice got louder and his footsteps were able to be heard running down after Krad.
"You were just born that way…"
Krad rushed into the kitchen and frantically looked around for a place to hide himself.
"And as they say…"
But he was not quick enough.
"It's in you're DNA…"
Dark reached him and shouted:
"You're gay!"
"But I'm not gay!" Krad shouted, turning around to face the boy.
Dark grinned, put a hand on Krad's shoulder, leaned close to Krad's face and said: "If you were gay…"
"Argh!" Krad groaned only to stop when Dark's lips pressed against his own…
