Previous Chapter:
When Krad returned Dark was already changed and asleep…in his bed. Krad sighed. He was going to tell him to sleep on the couch at first but, it's not too comfortable. So again, Krad sighed then turned out the light and gently climbed into his bed, trying not to wake him. His bed was big so he didn't have to worry about it being too cramped. Krad turned on his side, back facing Dark and slowly drifted to sleep.
Now:
Mmm….I smell food…. Dark thought before cracking open one of his amethyst eyes. He glanced around the bright room then winced and buried his face in the pillow when he looked out the window. Krad…you're so quiet. Are you just shy? No…that can't be it….The look you gave me when I said you were beautiful…it scared me. Why? What happened?
"Dark?" someone said softly. Said teen jumped slightly before looking at the other. His breath caught in his throat, and for a moment, he was unable to speak. The light shown around the blonde like a halo engulfing his body. Gold eyes looked at him curiously yet softly.
"Come on. It's time to get up." Krad's voice snapped Dark back to reality.
"Why?" Dark whined as he looked at Krad with puppy eyes. The blonde blushed slightly.
"Ah…well…um…" Dark smirked, Aww! Krad's so cute when he's blushing!
"Krad! Why?" Dark whined some more. The blonde's blushed deepened.
"Satoshi's birthday…uh…the decorations we bought…I don't..." he stopped then looked into Dark's smiling face.
"Okay." He said, then he got off the bed and stretched. "Let's go!" he exclaimed before he gently dragged the golden-eyed teen down the stairs.
Light filtered into the room landing on a pair of pale blue eyes. The owner of said blue eyes shifted and watched his redheaded lover sleep. He ran a hand down the teens' cheek, ran a hand through his soft hair, then leaned forward, and kissed him lightly on the lips. The other teen stirred then slowly opened his eyes and looked up at the other, then smiled.
"Good morning, Dai," whispered the blunette as he kissed his lover on the forehead.
"Morning, Sato." Then they cuddled and stayed that way for a while, before Daisuke lifted himself up and smiled down at Satoshi.
"Happy birthday Sato," he said then kissed him. Satoshi smiled then returned the kiss with equal passion.
"Finally! We're done!" Dark said as he threw himself on the couch. Krad smiled softly before he set the table and placed the food on it.
"You know what Krad?" The blonde jumped, then spun around. Dark chuckled before he wrapped his arms around the blonde's waist and hugged him tightly. The blonde froze.
"Even though I've only known you for a day, you're one of the best friends I've ever had." Dark whispered. Krad stood shocked for a moment before he slowly returned the hug, just not as tightly as Dark was holding him. Why does this feel right? Krad asked himself before closing his golden eyes.
Dark breathed in deeply, He smells like vanilla, he thought before he tightened his hold slightly. I don't want to let him go, but… I'll have to eventually...Damn. They stayed like that for who knows how long before Krad placed his hands lightly on Darks' shoulders.
"Dark," Krad whispered, "We should call them down…before the food gets cold." Dark nodded, face still buried in the blonde's pale neck. Krad waited, the purple-haired teen didn't' let go.
"Dark," Krad said as he pushed at the other's shoulders lightly. The teen still wouldn't let go.
"Dark!" Krad said sternly. The other teen jumped slightly then backed away, hands up, smiling sheepishly.
"Sorry Krad, you're just so comfortable I almost fell asleep," Krad stared at the other in shock. Dark, having just realized what he said, stopped and stared in shock as well. Krad started to blush.
"Umm…I'll…I'll go wake the other two up, I'll be right back!" Dark stuttered before running at full speed up the stairs to Satoshi's room. Krad stood still, not quite sure what to do. Dark sure was a strange person. Very strange. A little…too strange. Oh well. Krad shrugged it off. Maybe Dark would do him some good. He seemed reliable enough. CRASH Uh….okay…maybe not.
Dark stood outside the door, listening. A lot of noise coming from in there. Dark smirked, before quietly opening the door. When he looked in, he saw two lumps in the bed and heard many sounds that will not be put into words. The purple-eyed teen tried very hard not to laugh, but…there's only so much you can do. The two in the bed jumped and sprang apart, both facing the door and a laughing Dark who was trying to stay standing, but that wasn't working very well.
"DARK!" Satoshi yelled before taking his alarm clock (he hated the thing anyway) and throwing it at the laughing idiot in his door. CRASH Damn…it missed.
"Get…BWAHAHA…some…HEHEHEHE… clothes…HAHAHA …on…BWAHAHA…" Dark said between bouts of laughter. Uncontrollable laughter could be heard going down the stairs, fading, before it turned to nothing. The two younger teens had mixed expressions. Daisuke was red with embarrassment; Satoshi was glaring arrows, daggers, basically any, and everything that had a sharp point that could kill someone. He'd get him back. He didn't know how, when, or where…but he would definitely get him back!
"Dark?" Krad asked as soon as Dark came down the stairs, still laughing his ass off.
"They were…HAHAHAHA!!!" The purple-eyed teen couldn't finish. Krad looked at him strange. Yep, Dark was really weird…extremely weird. The blonde sighed then smiled slightly when the other two came down the stairs. Satoshi looked at Krad surprised after seeing all the decorations in the house.
"Happy birthday little brother," he said quietly. Satoshi returned the small smile before they all took a place at the kitchen table to eat.
"That was great Krad!" Dark said as he leaned back in his chair finally full. Krad blushed slightly.
"Yes, it was delicious thank you Krad," Daisuke said. Krad nodded in thanks before standing and gathering all the dishes and taking them to the sink. Daisuke and Satoshi walked out of the kitchen and upstairs to Satoshi's room to finish what they had started before breakfast…Dark smirked while watching their retreating backs before standing and going to the sink to help Krad. Krad jumped slightly when he felt Dark come up next to him. Dark saw and looked at him questioningly with out turning his head. Then something caught his eye he moved to the side a little to get a closer look. It was a bandage…and it looked like there were other scars. Dark went back to looking at what he was doing. Satoshi did say that Krad was having troubles but…were they bad enough to get him to cut himself? It made Dark think and he didn't want that, but Krad just got comfortable with him being there, so he didn't want to ruin it. So he made up his mind, if he sees any new cuts after today, he'll ask, but only ask; he wouldn't make Krad tell him, not until he was ready too. Well…for now anyways.
The dishes were done and Dark sat on the couch lazily watching Krad clean the kitchen. As soon as Krad finished and walked out of the kitchen, drying his hands on a towel, Daisuke bounded down the stairs pulling Satoshi along with him. Dark smirked.
"Aw so you have clothes on." Satoshi glared at the purple haired teen as Daisuke turned a bright shade of red. Krad, who stood behind said purple haired teen, none too gently smacked the teen in the back of the head before walking back into the kitchen to put the towel back.
"Ow…" he grumbled as he rubbed his head, glaring at Daisuke as the boy giggled at his brothers' expense before picking up a small box wrapped in ice blue wrapping paper.
"Here Sato, open this one!" the boy beamed as he shoved the box in the others' face. Krad quietly sat down in an armchair watching with a slightly smile at Satoshi's apparent happiness. The blue haired boy took the box before carefully pulling the paper off and opening the box. In it was a necklace with a blue pendant and a carving of white wings in the blue stone. Satoshi looked at it wide-eyed as he pulled it out of the box.
"I have one too, but mine is red with black wings, see," Daisuke said softly as he pulled the necklace out from under is shirt. Satoshi smiled as Daisuke took the necklace gently and clasped it around Satoshi's neck.
"Thank you Dai," said the blue haired teen as he gently kissed the other. Krad smiled gently, happy that his brother had found happiness and someone to care for. Dark watched them for a moment before looking at Krad. Hmm…he doesn't seem depressed...damn I'm thinking! What will my teachers think? Dark thought before he took his own present and threw it at the couple still kissing. Satoshi hissed when it hit him in the head.
"You need to breathe ya know, I just saved your life and you repay me by glaring! How rude!" Dark said dramatically as he acted hurt. Satoshi growled before he opened the box, but before he took all of the wrapper off he stopped and stared wide eyed at what it was. Daisuke watched him.
"Sato, what is it?" he asked innocently. Dark smirked again, then put on a serious face.
"I think it might be a little late, but I guess it's a good thing little Dai Dai here is a guy." Daisuke looked at Dark curiously before he moved to look at what was in the box. Satoshi saw this and moved quickly out of the way. Daisuke frowned.
"Satoshi let me see it," said the spiky haired teen, Satoshi shook his head. Daisuke pouted slightly before he tackled the other in hopes of seeing the gift his obnoxious brother bought his boyfriend. Krad, still sitting silently in his chair couldn't help but chuckle quietly at the display, he knew what the present was, and although it had surprised him, he expected nothing less from the purple haired prankster. He smiled, watching his brother and his brother's lover wrestle for the box. When Daisuke actually got a hold of the box, he sat down on his lover's back, pinning him down and looked at it. Seconds later Dark burst out laughing as his brother turned bright red again for the umpteenth time that morning and just barely managing to dodge the box of condoms that had been thrown at his head.
"Dark!" Daisuke yelled as he tackled his brother; Dark, still laughing fell with his brother on top of him and wrestled with the younger teen. Satoshi watched with a smirk as Dark was getting owned by his brother before he looked at Krad, who smiled back at his brother. Satoshi returned the smile before he reached out and grabbed the present his older brother handed him.
"Thank you Krad," he said when he saw the picture of him and Daisuke and Dark all together having fun. He looked at it; it was a recent picture, they had been at the park Dark had Satoshi in a headlock and Daisuke was on Darks' back trying to 'rescue' him. When did Krad take this? He thought as he looked at their expressions. Dark's was one of pure mischief and fun, Daisuke was laughing and Satoshi had a small smile on his face. The picture was amazing, to say the least, it captured who they really were on the inside and was simply amazing. Satoshi looked up to ask Krad when he had taken it, but found his brother over by the two wrestling boys trying to pry Daisuke off, but was smiling the whole time. Satoshi set the photo down before going to help his brother.
A few moments later Satoshi sat at one end of the room trying to talk Daisuke out of murder, while Krad was at the other end holding an ice pack to Darks' bruised forehead, where he hit the table. The boy had to be a masochist because he was still laughing at the present and egging Daisuke on. Krad shook his head gently, a small smile still on his face when Dark looked at him. Dark smirked as he took hold of the ice pack just as the doorbell rang. All four boys looked up and towards the door. Satoshi stood to go answer, but Krad stopped him.
"I'll get it." He said quietly as he made his way over to the door. He unlocked it, pulled it open then stood staring wide-eyed at the person standing in the doorway.
