Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon. There.


It's raining.

I never realized it was raining until I went out of the apartment, maybe because I thought it was me crying too much, crying too hard, but even after I stopped crying the sound of dripping water did not cease but I never realized it was rain until I saw the little raindrops smashing against the crystal door of the apartment building I live at with Daisuke, tiny little drops of water hitting against the glass, shimmering beautifully in the dim light of the afternoon... painfully beautiful.

Dai has not come home yet. It's been one hour since he phoned me, maybe it's the traffic, or maybe it's her... He does not pick up his cellphone so it's probably her, I went out of the apartment to get a little air, calm myself before he got here but he is not here yet, maybe I should go for a walk to kill time, but it's raining, normally i wouldn't care, getting wet in the rain is quiet comforting if you ask me, even fun if it's with someone else but he'll be home soon and being wet when he gets here just won't do so I just stare blankly at the rain from the staircase.

The rain is ceasing... just how long have I been standing here? I make my way up stairs again even if I can't recall going downstairs in the first place but I should have done so since I'm here now and I need to climb up 3 leaders to get to our floor, watching the rain trough the glass door at the main entrance of the building was calming but the food is probably cold by now and Dai should be home soon, I should reheat it before he gets here.

I don't have my keys on me so I probably left the door open, as soon as I reach the entrance I confirm this, I need to play more attention to my actions or Dai will be upset, I really don't want to upset him. Just as I walk in to the apartment I take a glimpse at the clock on the wall, 5:30, didn't he call at 3:00? I guess he won't be coming after all, what am I going to do with all this food? Daisuke eats so much I cooked for at least 5 people, there is no way I can eat all of that alone, and besides, I am not even hungry at the moment.

I look at the food on the table for a while and decide that I don't need to worry about that for the time being, I feel so tired, maybe I should just put myself in to bed and forget about everything, I head to our room but I feel alienated by being there, I can't even dare to lie in bed out of fear that it might disappear the way Daisuke is disappearing from my life... I decide to just sit on the floor next to the door after a moment. What am I going to do with myself now? Daisuke just comes here to eat, sleep and have sex anyhow... can't I just do that without him as well?

"..."

I blush at the realization of my own thinking, nevermind the fact that I actually COULD do it, the point is: that is just wrong. Am I that much of an ugly person?

"You are so beautiful."

In some lost corner of my mind those words echo like ripples on a pond and the face of a person I have not spoken to for a very long while comes to me as if I had seen him just yesterday, yes, I'm definitely an ugly person, who would think of his lover's best friend in a situation like this? specially remembering the things said friend did to me, and Daisuke still asks why I don't like Takeru... if he knew... a faint smirk draws across my lips at the idea of letting him know what his best friend did to me, if I'm pissed enough I might even say it in front of the bitch he is fucking at my back, she has a crush on Takeru after all.

Unconsciously I flip my cellphone open, there is only a couple numbers there, home, Daisuke, Yolei, Iori, Daisuke's office, THE bitch... maybe I should call the bitch and ask her for Daisuke, if I'm lucky I might interrupt them during sex and ruin the mood between them, ah, but they won't be doing that this early, Yagami is an expensive bitch, she will certainly make Dai take her somewhere expensive before giving him what he wants.

I continue looking trough the contacts list: Joe, Sora, Work, mom, the Chinese food restaurant, Takeru... I stop there for a moment without knowing exactly why, or not wanting to accept why, and my thumb presses dial accidentally... my eyes are wide in surprise as the phone starts to connect the call and i hang up instantly, begging he didn't notice the ringing... begging it wasn't long enough for it to register as a missed call... beg - oh shit, no use on begging; the phone is ringing now and the caller ID mocks me with bold black letters that read Takeru Takaishi over a bright blue screen that lights up to get my attention, I ignore the funerary march that plays as the ring tone I chose to that bastard's phone number, why do I even have his phone number here anyway? oh yes, I remember now, Dai made me add all of the Digidestined's phones on my cell phone memory, that's why, I let out a sigh when the phone stops ringing, that was a close one.

I really don't want to speak to that guy after what happened some weeks ago, why did I had to press dial on his number? I look at my cell phone as if daring it to ring again and for my surprise it does... the funerary march playing again, such a depressing sound... I have to make it stop somehow... somehow...

Somehow it stops.

"Ken?" His voice is worried, nervous, has he always been like this? what happens to the sunshine beams he seems to irradiate all the time and the cheerful overconfident voice of Takaishi Takeru? "Ken? is that you? Ken listen..." I hang up before he can say anything else and turn the cell phone off, I had been avoiding this guy for the last 3 weeks and now this, for a genius I certainly am an idiot, what am I going to do now? How am I going to explain myself? 'why, yes Takaishi, I called you, hanged up, allowed myself to miss your first return call, answered your second call, said nothing, hanged up and turned my phone off, why do you ask?' I shocked my head, why would I need to make excuses for him anyhow?

A phone rings... I instinctively look down at the cell phone and notice it is eerily quiet so I get to my feet just in time to hear the phone ring for the second time, the house phone is ringing, my hearts flutters and my face lits up as I pick up the phone "Daisuke!" I say cheerfully forgetting all that happened a moment ago "D-daisuke...?" i ask a bit unsure as no answer comes from the other end of the line "Who is this?" I finally ask after a moment, a bit afraid at who it could actually be.

"Ken, We need to talk." I hear an oddly cold voice from the other end of the line, Takaishi, where did his worrying go? "Please, ken." Takaishi sounds almost pleading but the way he says my name sends shivers down my spine, I don't want to talk to him so I don't answer but I'm too scared to hang up "Are you alone?" he asks in a low and deep voice that just isn't right and I'm unable to answer still, I'm grabbing the phone so hard it hurts, my hands trembling uncontrollably and my heart rate accelerating "Can I come over?" he asks in the same voice, it's phrased like a question but i know it's actually a warning, he is coming over...

"Dai-Daisuke will be here soon" I lie letting out a shaky breath that I'm sure he can hear perfectly well trough the phone, too well for my liking, I clutch the bottom of my shirt with my free hand to try and make the tremor go away but it's useless, I can hear a soft chuckle from the other end of the line and his last words leave at a loose for what to do "Don't worry love" he whispers softly "I'll be there soon" and I can almost see the wicked smile on his lips, what have I truly done? I should have just hanged up as soon as I knew it was him... I should have never called him on the first place... I shouldn't have ever gone to his place three weeks ago...

I am left alone to listen to the dead tone of the phone... he hanged up and he is coming... God saves me he is coming... oh good lord I don't want to go trough that once more... please... please...please...
