Wake To The Sun

Chapter 3: Taken And Loving It

Daisuke woke up to an empty bed. It wasn't his bed, and it was empty. He sat up, and looked around for Takeru. He wasn't in the room. He got up and walked out of the room. He heard the shower running as he walked past the bathroom. It was either Takeru or Takeru's mom. He walked past Takeru's mom's room and saw she was asleep. Which, in his mind, confirmed the person in the shower was Takeru.

Being lazy as usual, Daisuke laid down on the couch. He felt comfortable on it. He didn't quite know why it was so comfortable, but it was. He turned on the TV and watched th boring Sunday morning programs.

-----------------

Takeru finally got done with his shower and came out of the bathroom. He looked at Daisuke and Daisuke gave him a grin, he waved back at him.

Daisuke was joined on the couch buy Takeru. They sat there together and watched the poorly drawn anime cartoon on TV. The animation was bad and so were the puns.

Daisuke was surprised when Takeru's lips met his own. He wasn't expecting anything of the sort. Takeru pulled away and they sat there in silence. That is, until the phone began to ring.

Takeru picked up the phone. "Hello?" he said into it. He paused as the other person spoke. He listened intently.

"What's up?" he asked.

"Um, Daisuke's over," he stated after a longer, but brief silence. Hearing his name, Daisuke wondered who it was and what they wanted.

"Really?" he asked. It was really confusing. Daisuke couldn't seem to put the pieces together to this.

"Okay, then I'll be over in a few minutes," Takeru stated. This made the Daisuke even further from figuring out what Takeru was talking about.

"Okay, bye," Takeru bid as he hung up the phone.

Daisuke stared blankly at the blond boy. He had one question that might answer everything, "Who was that?"

"It was Hikari, she wants us to come over," Takeru explained.

"She does?" Daisuke asked. He then realized he was going to have to face Hikari now. He wondered if she already knew.

"Yeah," Takeru responded. "Go put a shirt on so we can go."

Daisuke had forgotten to even put on a shirt when he woke up. He had taken it off last night when he was asleep with Takeru. It had gotten so hot in Takeru's room that he had to take something off, and he was sure Takeru wouldn't like it if he took his pants off, since it was their first date and all.

"Okay," Daisuke replied. He jumped up and went into Takeru's room. He searched the floor for his shirt and found it. He slipped it over his head and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked alright, so he walked out of the room. He saw Takeru still standing by the phone. He flashed him a grin and they headed for the door.

"Remember, no 'gay-related' stuff," Takeru lectured as they walked toward the door.

"Okay," Daisuke replied. He was getting a bit aggravated at Takeru's attempts of trying not to say bluntly, "Just go in, and shut up".

They walked up to the door and knocked. It was only a few seconds before Taichi answered the door.

"Hey," Taichi greeted.

"Hey," Daisuke and Takeru replied. They walked in behind Taichi and stood not too far from the door.

"Hikari! Your friends are here!" Taichi yelled down the hallway.

Hikari met them halfway down the hall. She seemed eager for something.

"Takeru, I gotta talk to you for a second, if it's okay with you, Daisuke," Hikari asked.

Daisuke didn't really see the harm in letting her talk to Takeru "for a second", so he shrugged and said, "Sure."

"Thanks," Hikari said as she pulled Takeru into her room by his wrist. She closed the door behind her and he heard it lock. That made him wonder.

He looked down at Taichi. He was setting on the couch watching TV. Sunday morning programs. Daisuke was in a daze, watching Taichi watch TV. He was surprised when the door opened, and Takeru stuck the upper half of his body out of it and signaled for him to come into the room.

Daisuke walked into the room and curiously asked, "What was up with that?"

"Nothing," Takeru replied.

It made Daisuke wonder even more. What were they doing? He didn't feel like starting anything, so he shrugged it off by saying, "Okay, whatever."

They all sat down on Hikari's bed. They chatted for awhile about how Takeru and Daisuke had gotten together. It all still amused Daisuke. It wasn't something he was fully used to, considering he and Takeru always fought prior to their date.

Daisuke stood up. He knew he'd have to get home, he was already going to be in trouble for staying the night at Takeru's house without permission or even calling.

"I have to go home, I'm going to be dead as it is," Daisuke stated. He left after saying good-bye and giving Takeru one last kiss.

-----------------

Daisuke walked into the empty apartment. Or he thought it was empty anyways. He walked into the his bedroom and removed his clothes, all except his underwear of course. He needed a shower. He was completely frightened when Jun opened the door to his bedroom.

"Where have you been?" she questioned.

"I went out, why does it matter to you?" he asked back.

"Because I had to lie to Mom and Dad for you!" she exclaimed.

"what did you tell them?" he asked.

"I told them you were staying over at a friend's house," she explained.

"Well, you could say that was the truth," Daisuke stated.

"What do you mean?" she asked.

Daisuke sighed. He looked at his sister and began, "Takeru changed his mind. We went on a date and I crashed at his place."

"Oh my God! Did you have sex!?" she asked. She had a disgusted look on her face.

"No! I'm still a virgin!" he stated.

"Uh-huh," she sarcastically remarked.

"I'm serious!" Daisuke said defensively.

"Okay, okay, don't get your panties in a knot," his sister joked.

"I'm not, and I don't wear panties!"

Jun laughed as she closed the door. She said through the door, "I saw that!" and laughed some more.

-----------------

Daisuke laid his head on his pillow as he began to drift off to sleep. He had school the next day, what a drag. He didn't want to go to school. It was the last place he wanted to be, but he did want to see Takeru, so it was worth going to Those were his final thoughts as he drifted off to sleep.
