XDDD yeah, sounds wonderful ne.

It was nearing sunset, and Daisuke raced to get home. Another warning note had been sent out for eight tonight, and it was already seven. The sound of his shoes slapping against the pavement made his heart pound terribly hard, and in the back of his head he could dimly hear Dark teasing him about getting detention. The redhead tuned him out, running down a hill. He began to lose his footing before tripping and falling. He waited for the initial impact and broken nose, but it never came. He blinked when instead he hit something soft and warm, and looked up to see that he had been caught.

Daisuke blushed, realizing that he fell on a boy's chest, and quickly pushed away. The boy cocked his head to the side and blinked owlishly. He had large, innocent reddish eyes, and fluffy blond hair. For a moment the redhead felt as if he knew him.

"Um, sorry!" He apologized quickly, making the boy smile.

The blond held out a hand, as if to say hi. Looking from the hand then to the trusting red eyes, Daisuke hesitantly shook it. In his mind he heard dark snicker, but ignored it. Looking at his watch, the boy realized it was already seven ten. Daisuke panicked before dashing away, waving to the boy.

"Thanks again, bye!"

The blond watched him go with a curious look before following quietly.

(chapter 1: kumo)

(seven fifty)

It was just about seven fifty, and still Wiz had not shown up. Daisuke was beginning to get worried, chewing on his bottom lip nervously as the seconds on his alarm clock ticked off, drawing closer and closer towards eight. Dark had reminded him that it wasn't anything to worry about, as if he needed the little rabbit creature all he'd have to do was call his name. That was as reassuring as Dark could get at the moment, as he was excited about the recent item to be stolen. That wasn't what worried daisuke though...

"Quite worrying...your starting to get ME worried!" The voice in his head said in annoyance.

The little redhead frowned deeply, "But Dark, what if he's hurt?"

He felt more than saw the thief roll his eyes, obviously not concerned with the boy's thoughts. Really, he had had Wiz for centuries, so why should he worry? After all, Daisuke thought, he WAS his master. It didn't settle his fears anymore than the time Dark had swore that he didn't tell his mother about those random books he read on line. Which he still suspected of anyway, and currently held a grudge against him for, but that isn't even related to the point. Glancing at the clock again the redhead began to get up and climb down the ladder to his bed. It was already seven fifty five.

As he prepared to call out Dark, a small scratching sound came from his door, and then, the door opened up. Standing there was his mother, holding the door open and watching as Wiz scrambled towards Daisuke. With a sigh of relief Daisuke picked up the sprite and hugged him.

"I was worried about you." He muttered, glaring at the creature who 'kyu'ed innocently back.

Emiko smiled at the scene before speaking up, "Dai-chan, its almost time." She reminded.

Daisuke sighed and nodded, then relinquished control to Dark, who was more than happy to finnaly be free for the moment. He was rather excited, though he always was after all.

And after a cheery goodbye, the thief was gone, Wiz with him.

That day in school, everyone was excitedly chatting about the Phantom Thief's most recent theft, especially Saehara who had a ring of listeners around him. Daisuke and Satoshi stayed out of the conversation, as they already knew first hand how it had gone, instead sitting at their desks. Things were quiet between them, while stories and loud chatter droned on in the background like white noise. Apparently Satoshi was still angry that he hadn't been able to get Dark, once again. Or there could have been another reason, that Daisuke hadn't contemplated.

"Oi Daisuke!"

Before he could even blink Saehara was in front of him, a wide grin on his face as always. Daisuke sweat dropped before smiling nervously. That grin always meant that the boy was going to ask him something personal as always. He couldn't help but wonder what it was this time.

"Why're you so quiet? Last nights theft was the biggest one ever! Aren't you even slightly excited over it?" The brunette questioned loudly.

The redhead chuckled nervously, "Its not that, its just I'm thinking is all." He explained.

The moment that sentence had left his lips an wicked smile spread over Saehara's face. "Ooh, I see. So, who is she?"

Daisuke blinked, "Eh?! There is no she!" He hurriedly explained.

"Oh? I get it, embarrassed about it eh. Ha! She's pretty isn't she!"

"Ne, Niwa-kun, you were talking to a pretty blond on the way home!"

Saehara glanced at the girl next to Daisuke and grinned. "Proof! Who was she?"

The redhead shook his head, "That was a boy!"

Shocked looks overtook his two classmates faces, and he quickly clarified. "No! I mean, I was talking to a boy! Not like that!"

Inside his head, Dark snickered. The boy glared before asking angrily/Whats so funny?/

/You dont even know who that was do you?/

He was about to reply when the brunette in front of him waved a hand in front of his face. "Earth to Daisuke! Are you with us?"

Daisuke blinked quickly, realizing he hadn't responded to the reporter's prying questions from before. He smiled nervously. "Sa, I'm alive."

The brunette was about to speak when the teacher came in, and everyone hurried for their seats. Never the less, Daisuke wasn't so comfortable with Riku shooting him questioning glances, and made sure to keep from looking at her. She must think the same as Saehara did, the redhead mused. Class went by slowly, yet not nearly slow enough. When the bell rang, Riku and Risa were at his desk with wide curious eyes. The boy was having trouble fending off the two girls, and he would have screamed and ran away if a boy hadn't suddenly appeared at his desk. With a gasp, he noticed it was the boy from yesterday.

Risa was the first to notice him, and looked at Daisuke's shocked face to the blond's smiling face. Riku noticed soon after, and putting two and two together, she came to a conclusion.

"Niwa-kun...is that the boy?" She asked slowly.

omg i stopped XDDD it sucked ne, but eh. i know, it probably isnt very in character, but alas i dont have a ghost to help me like agent-san...yeah, dark knows the boy, but not daisuke XDD poor dai-chan

kumo means cloud, and you'll see why the chapter was called kumo ne.
