Please! QUESTION MARKS are getting deleted, so please don't think it's my mistake. I can take over a WEEK deciding what's best to write. Has anyone ever played Maple Story? Well, I'm hooked! xD Soo yea... if you need my user, where I play in, then yea.

Chapter 4: A Walk
"Cool down," Emiko said to Daisuke. "I'm sure she'll be found. We'll go to the hospital tomorrow. Okay?" But Daisuke didn't seem to be listening. "By the way, Risa, did you run down here all alone in the dark?"
Risa nodded.
"But that's not safe! Daisuke, could you walk Risa back to her house?"
Daisuke still didn't say anything. Riku. Missing. Daisuke just didn't feel right...! He knew he loved Risa. He knew that. So...why? Why this sudden change of feeling? Toward... Riku? Daisuke always thought of Riku as "Risa's twin." So now why was he worrying about "Riku?" Yes. Plain Riku. Riku Harada. The one and only. "So who do I really love?" Daisuke said it so low that only a mouse could hear it.
"What?" Emiko and Risa chorused together.
Daisuke, now snapped out of his "virtual world," turned to his mother and "friend" and quickly shook his head. "N-Nothing, nothing!"
Emiko just nodded and asked, "Will you walk Risa home?" Daisuke didn't answer right away, but nodded. His heart didn't throb anymore at the sight of Risa. He... just didn't feel that way about her anymore. On the walk to Risa's house, Daisuke didn't even notice Risa saying good night. He... was in a trance. A trance to find Riku. Heck... one in million... no... trillion, billion, more than that... how can I find Riku?
-
Riku was asleep on the bed in the "picture room," she called it. Dark was snoozing on the couch. No sound could be heard, but Riku still couldn't sleep peacefully. Once in awhile, she would jerk awake and break down in a sweat. Nightmares. She had nightmares. Why? Who knew.
She went to the kitchen for a glass of water. Water... that's right. Water'll soothe me. Or milk! Milk will also help. She couldn't find the milk so she poured herself some water. She drank. Fast. Before she knew it, the gallon of water was gone.
"..." Crap. "How am I gonna pay Dark back?"
During the night while she lay there in bed, she constantly went to the restroom. Sure... drink another gallon and start going every 5 seconds! She sighed. She was afraid to go to sleep again, because of the nightmares that kept haunting her. The nightmares all had... him in it...
-
The birds chirped happily outside his window, but he still felt sad. Emotionally sad. Sad that Riku had disappeared. He was a tint fustrated, but sad was more like it. Daisuke sighed. She was gone, and who knew if she wasn't in another accident? She had amnesia, and of course she wouldn't know where to go! How come she hadn't went back into the hospital, when it was the nearest place? Unless... unless somebody took her away! Yes! That was why! They should have better security... he thought. Still... there was no proof that someone had whisked her away.
Ding-Dong!
The doorbell. Of course it had to be Risa, with all that happened yesterday.
...Aaaand it was.
"Daisuke!" Risa ran up to him and hugged him. "I missed Riku so much last night, that I couldn't sleep! I just had to come see you first thing in the morning."
Daisuke nodded. "Yea, I couldn't sleep either. I kinda feel... well, a bit guilty, like it was my fault that Riku disappeared."
Everyone looked down. No, not to look at the nice floor the Niwa's had. They looked down at fustration and sadness.
-
"Yo, wake up." No reponse. "'ey! Wake up! Oi! Are you dead?" Dark shouted at Riku as she slowly opened her eyes.
"...Who-who're you?" she asked sleepily.
Dark sighed and said to himself, "I swear, that's why I don't like the hospital. What do they do to you?"
"Huh?"
Dark shook his head quickly. "Anyway, I came to wake you up. It's already morning, in case your brain thinks it's still night. People that come from the hospital are always slow! I don't know why..." he took a quick glance at Riku. She was staring at him. "Uh, well, breakfast in on the table, I already finished mine, so uh, I'm gonna go shower. You can shower, too, if you want. After me, of course. So.. bye!" he said all that so quickly and sprinted out so Riku still thought it was a dream. But she walked to the table and started to eat her breakfast.
After 30 minutes...
Riku finished her breakfast, and Dark was out of the shower. It smelled sweet inside of it. What kind of shampoo does he have? She sneezed.
"I hope I didn't use all of the hot water," Dark came up behind her.
Riku shook her head. There was just one teeny-tiny problem. "What other pair of clothes can I wear?" She looked down at herself. It was a nightgown the hospital had let her wear. It wasn't the most... prettiest dress, if I must say so myself.
"Ahh..." Dark stared at her. "Umm, stay right here." He ran to the "secret room" that Riku had been told not to go into.
"Eh?" was all Riku could say right now.
About a minute or so later, he returned with a long sleeve shirt and a mini skirt. Riku was ok with the shirt but... the mini skirt? She stared at it.
"Is something wrong?" Dark said, seeing Riku stare at the clothes.
"No... just that... I'm not really into skirts or dresses..."
"Oh.. well, I'm sure you'd look wonderful in it," Dark smiled. "And if you-"
"Where'd you get the clothes from?" Riku managed to ask before Dark could get any further. He looked to the secret room, then back at Riku.
"Just... somewhere. My um, sister left them there," he lied. Riku knew that, of course, but just nodded, knowing that the conversation wasn't going anywhere.
"Thanks," Riku smiled. Then she walked into the bathroom and closed the door.
Dark walked away slowly. Then sighed. "She looks so much like her..."
-
"Are you sure you don't know where she went?" Emiko shouted at a nurse.
"Uh.. n-no..." the nurse stuttered, and took a step back. "We haven't seen her since last night or so... the window was open, so she may have jumped out.. but..."
"Jumped out?" Emiko, Daisuke, and Risa all shouted together. Everyone in the room turned to look at them.
The nurse nodded slowly. "But... there aren't any blood stains.. or anything.. is she good at acrobatics or something? If not.. then someone must've caught her.."
Emiko, Daisuke, and Risa walked out sadly.
"Well, that didn't help," Emiko looked at Daisuke. "You okay?" She looked at his sad face. Then she turned to face Risa. "Are you ok?"
Risa nodded. "But... Daisuke looks more down..." she said quietly.
-
Riku was done showering, and came out, hair washed, new clothes, smelling fresh. (I didn't know what to write here to please don't comment on this!) The long sleeve shirt was blue, with buttons going through the middle of it. The design read "Love" on one side. The mini shirt was a darker shade of blue, sort of denim colored. It went a little above her knees, and she wasn't happy with anything above her knees. She tied her short hair into a small bun, with some bangs hanging in the front. She walked to the kitchen where Dark was. Surprisingly, Dark stared at her.
"W-wow..." he said, still staring. "You look... gorgeous." He smiled his famous smile and made Riku blush.
"Thank you... but the clothes aren't mine.. they are your.. um, sister's..."
Dark's smile went down a little, or so Riku thought. But he went to the front door and said, "Now that we're all ready, we can go shopping for you."
Riku only had one reaction. "Eh? Thank you.. but... I really don't nee-"
"Nonsense! You have absolutely no clothes here."
He was right. Riku only nodded and went outside. It wasn't chilly, just warm. It was summer. All of the sudden, Riku jumped.
"Ah!"
"What?" Dark asked.
Riku sighed sadly. "I don't have any money with me."
Dark just laughed at that comment. "That's why you're coming with me."
"B-but! How can I ever pay you back?"
At that comment, Dark smiled even wider and said, "You can date me." Then ran to the first shop and Riku quickly followed. She blushed as he said that.

Wah! I'm so sorry for the LONG LONG LONG update. Still a short chapter.. and the title doesn't even fit in. -.-" I had something planned, but then after not writing something for so long, I forgot.

magicalplay: Dai/Riku is a good pairing. I'll think about that. And when will she get her memory back? -Laughs- Read the chapters, silly! 8DD Not anytime soon... I'm hoping to make her remember them one by one... you know, more suspensing. xD
