Ok, a new story from me.
I know that I have loads of updating to do, but I'll do it very soon, I promise.
Anyway, this story; it may seem a little, Takumi, to start off with. But it'll soon become, Dakeru.

Don't Tell Me You Love Me: Chapter 1- Never Together
The Friday afternoon bell rang throughout a crowded courtyard; school pupils were desperately competing to be out the gate first, some on their own, and others with groups. Among the growing crowds, three good friends were walking close to each other; they had to stay close, to avoid being knocked-over by the endless swarm of children behind them.
"I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be back in a minute" One of the three friends spoke, and walked-off, in the direction of the male bathrooms. He frustratingly moved his blonde hair out of his eyes, the wind increased and the boy decided that it was a waste of time trying to move his hair, when it was this windy. Though he didn't really care about it, he still blushed when he had to walk past someone with his uncontrollable hair messed-up.
The other friends blinked as they watched the blonde struggle to control his hair. "So, Kari, do you want to come 'round my place, tonight? My parents won't be in" These words escaped quickly from one of the friend's mouths. He wore a pair of spotless goggles; they were perched upon his head, in his hair. His hair was a unique colour; it was a perfect mixture of brown and red.
"Yeah, okay" The girl named Kari spoke, though she hadn't really heard what the boy had asked her. The goggle-wearing boy couldn't believe his ears; he had always wanted Kari to come to his house, but she had never accepted his offer before.
"I'm back, let's go" The blonde-haired male returned, the other boy tried to act as casual as possible. The three friends start walking again, though they are no-longer so close, because there aren't as many people by their sides. They walk-out the tedious school gate, and onto the monotonous pavement. It wasn't long before they reached Davis' house; it was the closest to the school. "I'll see tomorrow, guys" Davis spoke as he waved to his friends, he entered his house, and started to prepare for tonight.
TK and Kari were left walking together; Kari started to move closer to TK, though the blonde seemed oblivious to that fact. Their hands occasionally came close, but they soon parted again. Kari decided to take advantage of one of these moments; she waited for it to happen, then, she held TK's hand. "How many times have we held hands now, TK? And your still blushing" The giggling girl spoke, the words she had said only made TK blush even more.
"It's different now though, we're older" TK tried to reason with Kari, though neither of them were loosening their grip. "Why's it different" The brunette asked; she already knew the answer, but she asked anyway, just to confirm her suspicions. "Well, when we were younger, we could hold hands, just like kids do. But now that we're older, if we hold hands now, it means that w-"TK trailed-off, he hadn't meant to say that, and the obvious blush upon his face showed that fact to the world.
"You're so funny sometimes, you know that, TK?" The pair approached the blonde's house; they stopped outside his door. "Kari, I'll see you tomorrow, ok-"TK was stopped by Kari's lips touching his own. The blonde's eyes widen, and Kari moves her face away from his. He didn't know why, but he felt a quick tear fall from one of his blue eyes. The brunette's hand swiftly wiped the tear away; she looked into TK's eyes. "Shall we go inside?"
Gently washing every part of his body, Davis stood in the shower; the warm water cascading down his slender arms, as his hands rubbed shampoo into his hair. After what seemed like an eternity, Davis finally hopped out of the shower, and began drying himself. His friends didn't know this, but when they thought that he had gone inside his house, he had actually gone shopping for his and Kari's dinner, tonight.
After Davis had got dressed, and had perfectly brushed his hair, he began making dinner. There weren't many things that Davis could cook, but he would try his hardest, just for Kari. He was going to do a stir-fry; he figured that it would be quick, and easy to cook. "Hi Kari, it's me, Davis. About tonight, could you please be here for five? And when you get here, I have a special surprise for you" Davis spoke into his phone; he had left a message on Kari's cell-phone.
Davis had a proud grin upon his face; he held a very neatly wrapped present, with both of his hands cupped underneath it. The wrapping-paper was pink, with red love hearts all over it; the package was completed with a beautifully placed white ribbon, resting on the top. "I love you Kari, will you please be my girlfriend" Davis spoke sweetly, as if she was standing in-front of him.
By the time He had finished, Davis had cleaned the entire house, and he had set the table; there was a red table-cloth draped over it. Also, there were two freshly-lit candles, and roses in the middle of the table. Davis felt his finger press the play button on his CD-player, and a romantic love song came-out of the speakers. Davis glanced over at the clock, as he stood by the door, waiting for Kari to arrive; it was 16:55pm.
TK and Kari were sat on the blonde's bed; Kari had her arm around his neck. She went to kiss him again. "Please, don't" TK spoke softly; Kari stopped, but lay down on his bed, bringing him down with her. "Get off my bed" The blonde sounded angrier this time, though Kari went to kiss him again. "Did you hear what I said" TK stood-up, and stared angrily at the brunette. "I thought that I did like you, I really did. But now that we're this close, I realise that we're just friends, I'm sorry" TK spoke much more softly this time; he sat back down on his bed.
"It was like, kissing my sister, or something" He hadn't really thought about that line, before he said it; it sounded far-worse than what he had originally intended it to be. "Anyway, you wouldn't want me; I'm not very good at this dating stuff" TK glanced at Kari, she hadn't said anything. "Kari, are you okay?" "I'm fine, so, I'll see you at school tomorrow, seeya" Kari spoke casually, and exited TK's house. The blonde made no-attempt to follow her; he knew that she would need some time alone now.
Many hours past, it was now 10pm;
Davis' tear-stained face was buried within his folded arms. He had fallen asleep at the table; the food was now cold, he wasn't going to eat, until Kari arrived. The present was in the centre of the table, next to the old flowers and burnt-out candles. It still looked perfect, though everything around it felt miserable and tired.
