...STORY!
Asyoucanseethisisalinebreakasyouknowbynowsinceyoupeoplelovemesomuch.
Orange wings flew over tree tops as the sun rose, blending so perfectly that the creature was unseen for many minutes. The winged creature dove from the sun, where it was hidden to dive towards a plain white hotel by the beach.
The creature was headed straight for the top floor, the last window before the end. Whatever it was flew through the shimmering pink, green, and silver charms in the balcony doorway and landed lightly and quietly in the living room.
The orange wings, the color of a ripe pumpkin, folded in and seemed to disappear into a girls back. She had a skinny frame, that seem barely able to keep herself up, short chin length spiked red hair, the color of burnt dull bricks, and crystalline green eyes.
Three bags fell to the floor as she landed in the room. Her light steps werent heard since the carpet soaked up all noise as she walked into a bedroom to her right. Inside the room her eyes landed on a pale redheaded figure with silver wings with one of the wings badly injured.
She tore her eyes from the other redhead and looked closer to her and saw a blunette (yes I say Satoshi had natural blue hair b/c hes hot and he can!) laying on the bed. He seemed to have tossed and turned in his sleep the night before since his sheets were barely ontop of him as he slept with a light frown marring his features.
The girl walked into the room further and stood beside the blue haired boy before shaking his shoulder lightly. When he didnt wake up she shook his shoulder a bit rougher.
Blue eyes cracked open in the dawn light. A light moan of being woken up escaped his lips.
"Come now, Sato-chan (little Sato). Wake up." She spoke with a small smile gracing her lips.
Satoshi's eyes snapped open and locked with the green ones. He sat up quickly and enveloped the girl in a hug.
"Ma-chan! (little Ma) You made it pretty fast!"
"I told you I'd be here in twenty-four hours from when that bunny came." She said as Satoshi let her go.
"So you did, Ma-chan."
"Course I did." She walked to the doorway and leaned against it. "Something bad happened I assume."
Satoshi looked sadly at Dai and sighed. That was when Mara noticed the dry tear stains on Satoshi's face.
"Come tell me everything that has happened. Everything from the beginning of the trip to now." She said as she walked into the living room area.
Satoshi followed her out after changing into loose jeans and a maroon tee-shirt. He sat on the red couch lightly then leaned forward to rest his elbows on his knees.
He told her the whole story from the bus ride, to the potion, to Seriko, to Takeshi and Sekimoto, to Mio, to the first kiss, to the learning of magic, all of it. When Satoshi was finally done talking, it was nearly ten thirty.
"Amazing resiliance I say. My hats off to the poor boy."
"You werent wearing a hat, Mara."
"Its a saying, Sato-chan." Satoshi just rolled his eyes. "Has the poor thing woken up yet?"
"No." He hadnt told her about Dai's second level transformation. He would let Dai tell her. "Nothing. If I didnt know better Id think he was brain dead. I know hes not though."
Mara nodded. "Why dont you go eat something? Ill watch the boy for a while."
"Have you eaten?"
"I ate before I left home."
"Ill, bring something up for you and him." Mara nodded.
"You're not giving up on him, are you?"
"No. I owe him so much. Even if these two weeks isnt normal, he gave me a chance to be without Krad. For that I owe him more than anything. His father gave him the potion and he was kind enough to split it in half so I could feel normal even if it was for a little while."
Mara nodded, understandingly. "Go eat Satoshi. He'll be fine, just needs time. Ill watch over him."
"Alright. Ill be back before long. Fourty-five minutes at most."
Mara nodded again and shooed him off. She closed the door behind Satoshi and sat on the couch to wait for his return.
Fourty minutes later Satoshi was back and seemed stressed more than he already was with two sandwiches in his hands. His body was tense as he shut and locked the door.
"Sato-chan, whats wrong? What happened?"
"More students have turned against the four of us. Mio isnt known to help us, as of yet. She cant come talk to us as often anymore." He sighed as he sat down and rubbed his face tiredly. "Its six against the whole class, a possessed bully who is in love with Dai, countless artworks, and Kei. Not only that but Krad and Dark wont be back for another week."
Mara put a hand on Satoshi's shoulder. "It'll be okay. Once Daisuke gets better you two will whoop all their butts. You can leave the weaker ones to me." She smiled at him.
Satoshi smiled back at Mara. "Hows Dai?"
Mara was about to speak and say something like 'still unconscious' until...
"Hurting." Came the weak voice from the figure leaning against the doorway, halfway in shadow. "But Ill live."
Satoshi and Mara's heads had snapped around at alarming speeds. Dai gave the two of them a half smile and walked into the room.
Mara and Satoshi saw the right wing of Dai's and how it was still almost completly torn. The wing hung limply by Dai's side, dragging across the carpet, but other than that Dai looked well.
Satoshi shot off the couch to stare at Dai, but Dai wasnt looking at him. Dai was leaning against the wall, one foot propped against the wall and his arms crossed, staring out the balcony door.
"Im guessin you're Mara." Dai said glancing at the girl, who nodded. "Nice to meet you. Sorry we needed to bring you into this. I know that before the end of this we'll need all the help we can get."
Mara stood up and walked over to Dai. She grabbed his hands and looked in his eyes.
"Im glad to help. I havent liked Kei since he adopted Sato-chan over there. Kei was only twenty when he adopted Sato-chan." She glanced at Satoshi. "Eight years and nothing has changed."
Dai nodded. He could tell.
"Mara, would you, by chance, know anything about..." He glanced at Satoshi in a scared manner then looked back out the window, to whisper the next part. "about second level transformations?"
Satoshi watched Dai since Mara had gone up to him, and saw the glance Dai gave him. He knew Dai was afraid of him when they talked about second level transformations now.
"Well, yes I do, but why do you want to know?" Mara was confused.
"Id recommend you stand back." Dai said, taking his hands from Mara. "Probably by the couchs would be best."
Mara backed up where Satoshi was. "Whats he doing?"
"This is why he is afraid of me now. I had a look on my face when he first changed from..." Satoshi let it fall there as Dai closed his eyes and his chin fell to his chest.
Dai's body raised a couple inches into the air and the silver aura engulfed his body in silver flames again, looking even more solid than before. Dai's head flung backwards and his eyes shot open as the light began shining through.
Mara flung an arm over her eyes when Satoshi did as a flashing light appeared then the wave, knocking them from their feet. Dai dropped back to the floor, this time keeping his feet, and leaned against the same wall in the same position as before.
Dai looked outwardly statue like, emotionless, his arms crossed in a defensive posture, with one foot on the wall to symbolize he was in control. His eyes had the same silver rings around the blood red color.
Mara stood up, still with her arm over her eyes, not seeing Dai. "Sato-chan, what just happened?"
Satoshi spoke in an almost cold voice. "Uncover your eyes, Mara."
Mara pulled her arm down then gasped and promptly fell on her butt. Dai glanced at her then sighed.
"This is why I ask, Mara." Dai explained in a hopeless manner.
"Amazing." Mara said from the floor. "Sato-chan help me up." Satoshi helped her up with one hand. "Truly magnificent." She walked over to Dai. "Second level and yet still different from any other."
"Do other second levels actually have two stages?" Dai asked as Mara's brows creased in confusion.
"What?"
"What you saw before, with my wings and black outfit...Is what Mio called a first level. Do other second level transformers have that?"
"Wha...no. They are called second level because they're more powerful. It has nothing to...no other second level can do that."
Dai nodded and went back to looking out the door at the sky. He seemed to radiate helplessness to Mara.
"Sato-chan, please step out of the room a minute." Satoshi arched a brow but left anyway. "Can you tell me whats wrong, Daisuke?"
"The first time I changed back Satoshi was watching with Mio and when I looked at him, he looked disgusted. He didnt take his eyes away, just watched me disgusted." Dai sighed and his shoulders slumped, along with his good left wing.
"Are you sure he was disgusted with you?" Mara asked.
"Why would he be watching me with a disgusted look without being disgusted with me?"
"I dont know. Just sit down for a minute. I want to talk to the two of you seperate. It works a bit better this way. Neither pulls the other down." She winked at Dai, who just looked sadly back.
Once Dai was seated well enough Mara walked into the bedroom where Satoshi was sitting on his bed. He seemed so sad about what was going on.
After closing the door, Mara turned her back to Satoshi and did something with the door. She walked over to Satoshi with an almost angry look on her face.
"He told me what happened, Satoshi."
"Which would be?"
"You were disgusted with him. Disgusted with what Satoshi? Being stronger than you? Better? Braver? The hero?"
"What are you talking about Mara? I would NEVER be disgusted with Dai."
"Then why, when you watched him transform back, did you have a disgusted look through the whole thing?"
"Mio had tried to KILL him! Mara she used her magic to engulf him completly and strangle him for his power! There was nothing I could do! I was digusted with Mio for almost killing Dai to get him to see his potential! She threw insults at him then tried to strangle him for something he might not have had!" Satoshi was on his feet yelling. "She told me while she had it strangling him that he was dispensible! I remembered that as he began changing back." His voice had changed to desprete and weak as his shoulders slumped. "I could never never be disgusted with him, Mara. Cant you see that?"
Mara nodded with a smile. She had a plan and it was working pretty well.
"What are you smiling at Mara?"
"Look at the door and tell me if you see anything."
Satoshi raised his eye brows but did as he was told. "No. Nothing."
"Good because there isnt anything there. No protection charms, no...silencing charms." Her smile was bigger.
"He.." Satoshi sounded weak and quiet. "He heard everything?"
"Yes. Now he knows why you were disgusted and you two can make up." Mara opened the door to tell Dai to go in but...
Dai had heard everything but didnt believe it. He decided to concentrate on something when the other two came out.
Dai was sitting there concentrating on his wing. The silver aura seemed to become like thread and needle over his wound.
Satoshi and Mara were in the doorway watching Dai's strained face. The silver aura stiched his wounded wing together then again, making the stitches double, then triple.
During the stitching Dai had grunted a bit of pain away but other than that, he was fine. When it was over, Dai stood up and flexed his wing.
A tiny wince came from him but nothing else happened. He had sewed up his wound and would live, that made him happy.
"D...dai?" Satoshi sounded nervous as hell.
Dai whipped around, and thankfully he had folded his wings into his body. His eyes held mistrust still as he looked at Satoshi.
"What do you want?" He asked cooly, keeping his emotions in check better than Satoshi had thought he could.
"I wanted to apologize."
"I heard it all." Dai said still in a cool defensive voice. "I still think you had other things you were disgusted with."
Satoshi shook his head in a hearty no. "Dai why would you think I hate you? Why think Im disgusted with you? I never would, Dai, NEVER."
Dai heard the sincerity in Satoshi's voice but he was too afraid to believe him, to trust and be wrong again. Mara seemed to notice his insecurity.
"Daisuke, Satoshi is telling the truth. I believe, no, I know he would never hurt you. He's honorable and wont do as those bitches did to you before. That Riku shit should have a monkey spit in her face."
Dai chuckled slightly at that as he looked out the balcony window. A small real smile lit his face up.
"There she is Mara. Go spit on her."
"Excuse me! I am no Monkey!" She said puffing out her chest, making her look like a penguin.
Satoshi ruffled her short hair. "Mara, you know that isnt imposing? Its just even funnier. It makes you look like a fat penguin."
Mara seemed to deflate. "A FAT panguin? I am not FAT."
"Never said YOU were. Said you looked like LIKE a fat penguin."
Dai chuckled then chuckled even more. "Hey Mara?" He interrupted their incresingly loud argument.
"Yeah?"
"Do you think I can summon water or anything like..." Dai busted into laughter as he speed walked out onto the banister.
Dai had a creepy smile on his face. He was also laughing like a maniac.
"Dai?" Satoshi asked, slightly wary.
"What?" Dai asked innocently, forgetting who was speaking to him. "Cant I have a little bit of payback?"
He summoned a feather, charged it, and threw it at the beach infront of Riku. The sand blew up but Riku, the dumb blond acting stupid girl she was, continued on in a straight line.
"Too gullible." Dai said as he threw another charged feather at the tide that was racing in.
Riku fell in the deep hole right as a wave of water crashed down on her in her 'dressed up and meet her date' state. Mara fell to the floor laughing when she saw what Dai did.
"Oh..." She was trying to catch her breath. "That is so much better than a monkey spitting on her. SO much better."
Dai closed the door behind him as Riku looked up at his door but saw nothing. He was in a bit better of a mood now that Riku had what was coming to her.
When Mara was finally breathing correctly again Dai was sitting on the red couch, rubbing his temples, with his wings curled up against his back. Satoshi looked worried at Dai.
Mara smirked and pushed Satoshi over towards Dai. He gave her a glare but continued on cautiously.
"Dai...?" Satoshi asked.
Dai looked up at Satoshi, who was at the end of the couch, away from him. He raised an eyebrow at Satoshi.
"Can I sit down?" Dai waved a hand, a yes. "You okay?"
"Headache." He muttered rubbing his temples.
Mara walked over to the same couch and pushed Satoshi down beside Dai and sat on the end herself. Dai looked over at her, over Satoshi's slumped back where he was leaning on his knees, and gave her a suspicious look.
She shrugged at Dai innocently. Mara wasnt going to give anything away.
"Is she always so odd?" Dai asked Satoshi without looking at him.
"Yeah. When she's around new people she isnt as bad. Be glad. Wait until tomorrow, or the day after. That'll be fun." Satoshi explained.
Mara leaned forward and grabbed the sandwiches off the table and tossed Dai one. "Satoshi brought them back almost two hous ago." It was about one then.
Dai nodded to Satoshi in thanks and munched on his sandwich. Mara gave Satoshi a nudge, trying to make him talk.
"Mara Its unwise to talk and eat at one time." Satoshi said as he sat up straight. "It makes it much easier to choke on your food." He sounded like the old Satoshi, calm and collected...boring.
Dai finished chewing a bite and spoke loudly..ok yelled and pointed at Satoshi. "PARTY POOPER!" Then he went back to his quiet state of eating his sandwich.
Mara had snorted, trying to keep her laughter in, but failed miserably. Somehow she kept her food in her mouth while she had a gut busting laugh.
When she finished laughing she swallowed and spoke. "See Sato-chan! Its better top be spontaneous!" She said pointing at Dai infront of Satoshi's nose.
"I told him that!" Dai said loudly, laughing after finishing his sandwich.
"Really?"
"Yeah!" Dai said smiling, they were pretending Satoshi wasnt there. "It was a few days ago before..." A laugh escaped Dai's mouth. "Before he had an ex..."
Satoshi had clamped a hand over Dai's mouth as he blushed profusely. When he let Dai go Dai busted into laughter.
"I guess he doesnt want you to know we kissed?" Satoshi's face was in his hands as he blushed as Dark as Dai's hair. "Guess so."
Dai and Mara laughed at Satoshi. They were having fun making fun of him.
"Ooo. Maybe he doesnt want you to know about the time he had his head stuck in a trachcan?" Satoshi had just pulled his face from his hands...then went right back, muttering a 'why me?'. "Guess he doesnt want you to know his funny embaressing quirks?"
Dai laughed. "Oh, do tell!"
"Id be happy to." Both chuckled as they saw Satoshi's neck redden along with his ears. "Would you like to know about the trash can incident or the one where I stuck him in a big one? Maybe the one where he swam into someones poop in the pool, thinking it was..."
Satoshi had lept for Mara and tackled her to the floor. The two went tumbling around a while until Mara sat there on Satoshi's back with his arms pinned behind his back.
"Cocoa puffs!" Dai laughed at the memory and how she didnt skip a beat.
"Did he tell you when he first kissed me?" Dai asked with the slightest blush.
Satoshi couldnt cover his ears so he stuck with yelling at the top of his lungs. "No! no! She'll never let me live it down!"
"Stick a sock in it!" Mara called.
Dai looked under the couch and found one of Takeshi's stinky socks. "Found one!" Dai ran over and shoved the stinky sock in Satoshi's mouth after squatting beside him.
He combed his fingers through Satoshi's hair. A smile was on his face, a forgiving one.
"To let you know I forgive you...I dont think you will after I tell you that...Well...Mara hold on tight! That sock was Takeshi's." He lept out of the way as the sock went flying out of Satoshi's mouth.
"Oh gross!" He began wriggling around like a fish out of water covered in petroleum jelly trying to be held by a man with baby oil on his hands.
"Whoa!" Mara yelled as Satoshi almost knocked her off of him.
Dai went over to Mara and sat on Satoshi too, on his back. Both of them were barely able to keep him under control.
"Lemme go! Lemme go!" Satoshi called. "I ned to wash my mouth out then kick Dai's butt."
Dai 'eep'-ed in a fake scared voice. "Thats IF you get loose."
Mara laughed. She liked how Dai was so funny and craz(il)y spontaneous.
That IF almost came true when Mara sneezed and Dai was the only one to handle Satoshi. Satoshi began wriggling around again, but Dai was holding on even as he stood up.
Dai had Satoshi's hands pinned behind him still. Mara watched the two play fight and saw what Dai was doing.
Satoshi was beside the couch and Dai tripped him up, knocking his knees out from under him. Dai laughed as he fell ontop of Satoshi onto the couch.
Dai was straddling Satoshi's rear and both froze slightly. That was when Mara saw the glint in Dai's eyes.
The innocent looking redhead leaned forward, rubbing up against Satoshi rear, and whispered in Satoshi's ear. "Feel a bit helpless dont you?" His voice sounded a lot like the first day when he had Takeshi help him throw Satoshi in the water. "You like it dont you?"
Dai made a shifting motion like he was getting a better grip on Satoshi's hands that were still behind his back, pinned. The shift was just a ruse so he could just rub against Satoshi.
Satoshi shivered at how naughty Dai could be. It was making him start to get a burning in his lower region and see stars from the feeling.
Dai smirked again and whispered in Satoshi's ear again. "Am I forgiven or still think you need to...do something...to me?" His voice was laden with something that made Satoshi shiver again.
After another smirk, Dai sat up rubbing Satoshi again then smiled mischeviously at Mara. He gave her a wink and mouthed something to her, which she went to do.
Dai leaned forward, laying on Satoshi in a lazy way, making Satoshi shiver again. "Mara will be back in a minute. She needed to get something." Dai said shifting again.
Satoshi had to stand another agonizing five minutes with Dai teasing him before he heard Maras feet return from the bathroom.
"Sorry Dai. I had trouble finding...it." Satoshi couldnt see Mara.
Dai mouthed something to Mara again and she smiled just as big. She mouthed one...two...three.
Dai lept off Satoshi's so quick and agile-y he had no chance to react. Mara threw a huge bucket full of cold water all over Satoshi before he could move.
Satoshi pulled himself off the couch sputtering and fell off onto the floor. His problem Dai had caused, had thankfully 'fallen' with the cold water.
The blue haired boy sat up and looked at Dai, laughing happily on the floor, to Mara, also laughing with a bucket in her hand. His blue hair fell in his face in a very 'do-able' way.
"Ma-chan." He said slowly in an almost calm way...almost.
Mara 'EEP-ed' and tried to run for the bathroom but Satoshi tackled her. He tickled her until she started to cry, then finally let her up.
"Not again, Ma-chan." He said teasingly.
"Sorry Sato-chan but he's way more fun. I think Ill listen to him." She said pointing at Dai who was edging his way away from them.
Dai pouted lightly when Satoshi's ebil planning gaze fell on him. "Mara!" He whined cutely. "You wouldnt let someone innocent get hurt would you?"
"After that show...uh-uh. You are DEFINITLY allowed to be teased back." Mara said crossing her arms as she sat cross legged.
Satoshi was stalking in towards Dai, who tried to smile at him as he scooched back on his bum. The blue haired boy squatted infront of Dai who kept backing up.
Mara excused herself quietly to let the two have their moment. She knew Dai had meant for part of that to happen but she didnt think he thought Satoshi would retalliate in that way.
She left and walked to the bathroom putting the bucket back under the sink. After that she went into Dai and Satoshi's room to look around.
Satoshi crawled after Dai on his hands and knees seductively. He crawled over Dai's legs and pushed the smaller boy down with one hand.
Before Dai knew anything Satoshi's lips had fallen on his, throwing him into bliss. Satoshi's lips asked for forgiveness for everything he had done as both of their eyes fell closed.
Satoshi's right hand that had formerly pushed Dai down was sitting on his waist, 'innocently'. His tongue came out slowly and lightly ticked Dai's lips, asking to enter.
Dai obliged quickly and opened his lips to let Satoshi in. Their tongues battled for a while before Satoshi won and kept roving around Dai's mouth.
The bliss Dai was in semed to chill for a second then he realized that Satoshi's hand he had thought before was sitting on his hip 'innocently' was under his shirt. Satoshi's hand was going all across his torso and chest, leaving tingling spots where it had passed.
Dai moaned into the kiss and the bliss was so amazing he didnt realize his back had arched up and he had rubbed against Satoshi. Both of them felt the bliss of the slight rub and moaned into each others mouths.
Satoshi broke the kiss so they could catch their beath and as he looked down at Dai he saw lust and love swirling together in hs eyes, reflecting what he felt. After catching their breath Satoshi's lips found Dai's again and they began again.
The kiss was more passionate than the time before and Dai was already moaning into it before Satoshi had even tried anything. Satoshi's delicate fingers found Dai's right nipple and began playing with it- pinching it then rubbing it.
After a while of playing with the right nub Satoshi's hand moved to the other one. He gave the same attention to the second pink nub as the first.
The bliss Dai was in made him arch his back up and grind into Satoshi. The two of them moaned loudly, right as two people walked into the room, and kept up the kiss.
Satoshi nibbled on one of Dai's slightly swollen lips before going into battle with Dai's tongue again, winning again. Dai's hips bucked up again and smashed into Satoshi so hard the two moaned loudly, almost sending the newly-experiencing-everything-sexual two over the edge.
Mara was standing in the bedroom doorway when she noticed two people sitting on the blue couch, the not wet one, watching Dai and Satoshi intently. She coughed loudly, scaring the two on the floor to break apart.
Satoshi pulled away from Dai, who then saw the two on the couch and blushed madly. The blue haired boy looked curiously at Mara but before he could say anything, Dai tugged lightly on his sleeve, like a child.
He looked at Dai who was blushing madly then slightly nodded his head to the other couch. Satoshi looked up and saw Takeshi and Sekimoto watching them intently.
Dai was blushing so bad he wished the floor would eat him alive. He scooted back a little and hid slightly behind Satoshi. He never did like when his feeling were out for more than a tiny few to know.
Mara decided to help Dai. "Dai, can you come here a minute? I wanna ask about something."
Dai shot up so fast Satoshi barely saw the silver blur of his clothes. The other two boys were giving Satoshi approving looks.
"What?" Satoshi finally snapped out.
"You two finally got it on!" Takeshi said so loud Dai could hear.
Dai had walked with Mara into the bedroom. She pointed to his B4 bag full of his broken and torn art supplies.
"What happened?"
"You remember Seriko?" She nodded. "Thats what happened."
Dai sat on his bed and explained everything about his past with the boy and what he had done to Dai's stuff. He felt like she could be trusted and help him in his predicament, besides Satoshi and Takeshi.
"Ah. I see." She said. "Its a good thing I did some research on you, then. Come with me."
She went out of the door and Dai walked on the walls side of her so the others didnt see him as much. He was still embaressed being caught with Satoshi.
In the corner of the room was Mara's three LARGE bags: inconspicuous and out of the way in the corner. She opened one bag and hmmed as she looked through it.
"No. Not the right bag." She murmered as she opened the next bag. "Ah. Yes. This is it. This whole bag and everything in it is for you, Daisuke. Go ahead. Look in it."
Dai stepped forward and looked in it. It was full of art supplies Dai could only imagine.
"I cant accept this, Mara. Its too nice."
"Nonsense. Its fine. You take it or I dont help, then." Dai tried to protest. "Take it. It has a charm to hold three times its amount and if you dont take it I'll leave with it and not help."
Dai gave her a look saying something like 'CHEATER!- you- cheat.- threaten- me- with- leaving- to- make- me- take- the- bag'. He finally accepted the bag and walked it to the bedroom.
Since Dai wasnt ready to face Takeshi and Sekimoto just yet he looked through the bag and took the things out. There were things thats price had two or more zeros behind it.
There were three different easels, nine types of cloths for the easels, oils, paints, charcoal, special crayons, pastels, primers, glaze, twenty seven different cases of coloring supples, all different, ninty-four different brushes, notepads, doodle books, sketch paper, wax paper, laminating paper, there were many things Dai had never evn used before in the bag too.
After ten or so minutes Satoshi walked into the room. "Hey."
Dai looked up from his bed buried in art supplies. "Hey."
"I was getting worried. Thought you fell in the bag and got lost." He said with a smile.
"I wouldnt doubt it. All of this fit in there. Amazing." Dai was STILL stunned at everything Mara gave him. "Why would she give all of this to me?"
"She likes spending her money on people. Her great somethin many times grandpa made the first cd (heehee. I didnt know what and so I decided CD b/c u get so much for every CD so..a lot of money). She loves spending it because every CD sold...EVERY ONE of them she gets like fourty percent of it. Half of the time she buys presents like that to impress someone, but she told me you tried to refuse it. What happened?"
Dai growled half heartedly. "She threatened me. If I didnt accept it she'd leave."
"Thats my cousin. Ingenious."
"Sounds like you. Do whatever to get what you want." Dai's eyes were laughing as he kept a straught face. "I just realized Im still in transformation mode. Hmmm." He concentrated on normal clothes.
With a guick flash he was in his normal attire. He smiled at himself and hopped off the bed.
"I think Im getting the hang of this." He said as he kept his wings out. "I dont wanna put my healing wing away just yet."
Satoshi nodded and wrapped an arm around Dai's waist. "So..." He stared nervously. "Am I forgiven?"
Dai stood up a bit more and kissed the corner of Satoshi's mouth. "Of course." That one kiss had made Satoshi want more.
"You did that on purpose, didnt you?"
Dai smirked knowingly. "Did what?"
Satoshi fake glared at Dai then hugged him to his body. "Do you know how much I wanted you right here in the passed twenty four hours?"
"Im guessing a lot?" Dai asked as he leaned his head against Satoshi's chest, hearing the heartbeat inside his body.
"Too many times, Dai. Last night, when you were unconscious on your bed..." He started but couldnt finish.
"Satoshi?"
Satoshi looked down at Dai's slightly shorter frame. "It was the first time in years, years, Dai, that I cried. I was that worried."
Dai hugged Satoshi tightly. He didnt want to see him in pain either.
"Satoshi, Im sorry. If I had listened to you I wouldnt have flown off and you wouldnt have had to go after me. I wouldnt have been shot, you wouldnt have had broken bones, and I would have my wing mained for a while. Hopefully only a while."
"Dont worry Dai. It'll heal." Satoshi tried to assure Dai.
"What if it doeasnt though?" He asked as he unfurled the wing a bit.
Satoshi reached out a bit, since Dai was on his left side, and lightly took the injured wing in his hand. He took the wing to his lips and kissed it lightly. The kisses followed the sewn pattern Dai had done.
"Any better?" Dai just kind of giggled.
"You're such a romantic, Satoshi."
Satoshi just smiled at Dai. He didnt care if he WAS a romantic person, if it made his Dai happy hed stay that way.
"Come on. The others are worried. Takeshi wants to congratulate you in making less cold." Satoshi said as he hugged Dai again.
Dai pouted a bit when Satoshi let him go. "Do I have to?"
"Until you do Im not showing you any more affection." Satoshi said smiling. "No hugs...no kisses." Dai pouted again.
"Meanie." With that Dai walked out of the room.
"Dai!" Dai was tackled by Takeshi onto his hurt wing.
Dai let out a pained hiss as he landed. At that rate his wing wouldnt be healing soon.
"Takeshi, get off him." Satoshi said. "He hurt his wing and you just made him land on it."
Takeshi was off Dai in a second. Satoshi helped Dai up.
Satoshi whispered in dai's ear. "You okay?" Dai nodded then sat on the floor, leaning against the table in the middle of the rrom with his right wing stretched out lightly.
"Sorry Dai." Takeshi murmered.
"Dont worry. Im fine."
"I wanted to congratulate you in giving Satoshi some kind of emotion." Takeshi smiled. "Even if it is love."
Dai rolled his eyes. "Theres no pleasing you is there?"
"Nope." That was about when Sekimoto attacked Takeshi's mouth to shut him up.
Mara looked confused. "Oh sorry, Mara. Thats Takeshi. Hes been my closest friend since second grade. The other one is Sekimoto, his roommate, and new boyfriend." Dai explained.
"Oh, alright." Mara nodded. "Odd friends you have."
"You get what comes to you. I cant ask for a funnier or more...odd friend than Takeshi. Hes a reporter wanna be. You want any info and he can get it for you."
Mara nodded. "Useful then."
Satoshi lightly smacked her upside the head. "Dont be so mean."
"Satoshi." Dai said. "Dont be so abusive."
"Im not abusive."
"What do you call that?"
"A warning."
"A warning when you said practically the same thing about Takeshi?"
"I can say it because I know him. She cant...yet."
"She can say what she wants, Satoshi."
"Yeah Sato-chan."
"Aw you shut up."
"What did I say, Satoshi?"
"Yeah Satoshi. What did he say?" Mara teased.
"Now can I Dai?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because she's your friend. You dont hurt friends."
"Yeah I do." Satoshi smacked Mara upside the head. "See?"
"May I Dai?" Mara asked.
"Yeah Mara."
Mara tackled Satoshi and both disappeared behind the red couch. Dai heared grunts as Mara picked on Satoshi.
"Dai!" Satoshi called. "Get her offa me."
"Nope. You deserve it."
"Im warning you Dai. That threat still stands. Im keeping it going now."
"Im sure you wont use it, Satoshi."
"Lemme go, Mara."
"Nuh-uh. Dai wanna help me?"
"With?"
"Torture?"
"Like?"
"You'll see. Just help me."
Dai shrugged and walked around the couch. After going around, Dai watched Mara make a pair of magic handcuff like things and clipped them around Satoshi's left wrist the hooked the other around a heavy table leg close by.
"There you go. Dai, Ill leave you two be." She winked at Dai who gave her a flat stare back. "Hoy! you two!" She called scaring takeshi and Sekimoto out of their 'fight'. "Im Mara. And you are?"
While they talked in the background Dai sat just out of Satoshi's grasp, in a very provocative psoition. Torture Dai's way.
Satoshi swallowed heavilly and tried to look away but he couldnt. Dai raised an eye brow at Satoshi.
"Problems?" Dai asked innocently. "Do you need some help?"
Satoshi shook his head lightly with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes again, Mara was holding a large lolly pop (the big colorful ones you know?).
"Dai, you want the lolly?" She said using a work that satoshi knew to make his interest peak, it worked.
"Please?" Dai asked. "I like sugar."
Mara winked. "Answer me on question."
"What would that be?"
"How do you like your tootsie rolls?" Another wink and Dai knew what she meant. "Do you bite them or suck on them until they're gone?" Satoshi had his eyes closed tightly.
"Both." Dai said almost seductively. "I suck on them first then bite. Their too...hard...to bite them first."
That talk was getting Satoshi very excited. He never knew Dai could be so dirty.
"That answer is good enough for me." Mara said as she handed the lolly to Dai.
"Yay. Lolly." He seemed to pant the last word out.
Satoshi could hear Dai unwrap the sucker. He was having images flitter through his thoughts but knew if he opened his eyes it would be worse.
A sucking noise came from close to him and Satoshi couldnt control the urge to keep his eyes closed. That was a mistake.
Dai was now sitting against the nearby red couch, his shirt raised slightly showing skin, his hair was ruffled, and to top it all off he was VERY seductively licking the lolly. A couple licks later Dai began sucking on it again.
Dai saw Satoshi's eyes glazed in lust as he worked on the sucker. He raised an eyebrow at Satoshi.
Without a second thought Dai's free hand rested on his shirt slightly, since it was sticky from the sucker it stuck slightly to his shirt. dai went to pick his hand up and it was stuck enough to raise his shirt a bitmore, showing Satoshi even more skin.
Satoshi couldnt sit there watching Dai for much longer. Either Dai had to go away or he had to pounce on the do-able redhead.
Dai pilled the sucker from his mouth with a sound pop and offered it to Satoshi. "Want some, Satoshi?" Dai asked innocently.
Satoshi just tried to glare at Dai. "Dai." Mara said from across the room. "I should let him go. Its about dinner time. Its about four now."
Dai nodded and walked to Satoshi's right side and squatted beside him. Satoshi's body functions were ull after the show Dai gave him.
The redhead smiled a bit before lightly kissing Satoshi's lips, leaving trace amounts of the sucker on Satoshi. Satoshi didnt realize exactly how...different...Dai was until the redhead leaned forward before Satoshi could lick the sucker residue from his lips.
Dai's tongue slipped out from his lushous pink lips and licked Satoshi's lips clean of the sucker residue. After pulling back just slightly Dai licked his lips where Satoshi had to watch.
Before Satoshi thought anything more than Dai was a tease, Dai was gone. Dai was standing and leaning against the wall a few feet away as Mara walked around the couch, she hadnt seen any of what Dai did.
Mara bent down beside Satoshi and as she went to magic away the handcuff she whispered in his ear. "Have fun? Enjoy what he can do?"
Satoshi was stunned to say the least. He had never in his life thought of Dai as a tease, never, until that day.
When Mara finally let Satoshi go he sat there for a minute as she followed Takeshi and Sekimoto out the door. He stood up and put his hands on each side of Dai's head.
"Tease." He said quietly.
"I am no such thing." Dai said with a seductive smile.
"Mmm. I see. What would you call all of that?"
"I like my lolly." Dai said with that smile again.
Before Dai could do anything, Satoshi had attacked his lips with his. Satoshi's tongue came out and licked Dai's lips clean of the sucker, then went to trying to poke through Dai's lips to his mouth.
Dai would let him in. He lightly pushed Satoshi back.
"You said you werent showing any more affection. Im going to hold you to that promise." Dai said, once again with the seductive smile.
Satoshi sighed. "I just knew that was going to bite me in the butt."
"Satoshi!" Mara said as she walked back in the door. "Stop ravashing poor Daisuke and come on. Food now, sexing up Daisuke later." She pulled Satoshi away from Dai.
Dai smiled and shook his head. "Nuh-uh, Mara. He had a promise and said no affection. I intend to hold him to that."
"Hmm. I think we should both keep him to his promise then." Mara said with a smile.
"Food. Go on." Dai shooed them away.
Satoshi gave Dai one last needy look before Mara pulled him down the hall. Dai smiled as Mara and the others left, knowing Satoshi wouldnt last long against him.
Almost an hour later, the others came back with Mio in tow. When the door opened Dai lept at each one of them giving them a hug but skipped over Satoshi with a smirk.
Mara handed Dai a turkey sub and a salad as he sat down on the now dry red couch in the middle.
Mio flopped down on the second couch with Takeshi and Sekimoto. Mara sat on Dai's right after forcing Satoshi on Dai's left.
Mara and Dai exchanged smirks before Dai started to eat. Everyone told him of what was happening outside his door while he ate.
Whne Dai finished eating he put the plastic bowl the salad was in and the sub wrapper on the table. He gave Mara a smirk and leaned against Satoshi.
Satoshi was about ot wrap an arm around Dai. "Ah-ah!" Dai said to him.
Satoshi groaned as Dai layed against him more and he couldnt do anything. He glared at Mara who just smiled back at him.
An hour later Dai had dozed off against Satoshi, since he hadnt slept in a whole day again. Satoshi smiled down at the rehead then at Mara.
She nodded to him. She'd allow him to hold Dai now that he was asleep, he'd never know.
Satoshi's arm wrapped around Dai's waist and sat above his belly button. Everyone was watching a movie on HBO when Satoshi realized his hand had drifted below Dai's shirt and was playing with Dai's belly button.
Dai opened a tired eye and muttered a 'cheater' before falling asleep again. Mara chuckled at Dai before getting sucked back into the movie.
Satoshi left his hand below Dai's shirt but stopped circling Dai's belly button. He just rested his hand on tanned flesh he had touched only a couple times before.
When the movie was over at seven, Mio, Takeshi and Sekimoto left for their rooms. They told the two awake to tell Dai they said bye before heading out.
Satoshi looked down at Dai when the three left and realized Dai was awake. Dai was laying there in a kind of half awake world.
The redhead blinked and came back to reality. "Cheater." He said as he pulled Satoshi's hand away from him.
Satoshi just laughed at Dai, knowing the redhead had liked it. He let Dai up then watched him walk into the bedroom.
"It bothers you, doesnt it? Not being able to hold or touch him." Mara said smiling.
"You dont know how hard." Mara laughed.
Dai came out of the bedroom with one of the easels, an easel cloth, a half dozen paint brushes and paints. Neither of the two noticed him, since he was a thief (sneaky and quiet) and they were talking.
Dai made it to the balcony and had the door open and out on it before Mara noticed him. She didnt say a thing to Satoshi though, because she knew Dai could handle himself.
After quietly closing the balcony doors, Dai slowly stretched his wings out and flapped them testingly. The wounded wing held up.
With a few less powerful flaps Dai was up in the air and going up to where the flat roof was. He landed lightly on the roof and before long had the easel set up.
The sun was to set in half an hour and Dai wanted to paint it. He really wanted to paint.
Ten minutes later, Dai had everything set up and Satoshi could be heard yelling at Mara for letting Dai fly on a wounded wing. Dai heard Satoshi stomping up the steps quickly in a worried way, but after smiling he ignored it and began priming the cloth (im guessing!)
The door behind Dai slammed open and an angry Satoshi stepped out. He stopped though when he saw Dai's back, gracefully stretched over the easel. Maybe he would forgive Dai easily.
"Dai?" He called quietly.
Dai didnt move. "You could have flown, silly." Dai reminded him.
Satoshi's attitude deflated when Dai reminded him. He walked over to Dai and looked over his shoulder.
Dai had already started on the trees to threir right and the sandy beach for the painting. Satoshi watched as Dai finished the trees with graceful strokes, and could see countless trees as he look harder.
Satoshi watched Dai finish etching the sand with quick precise strokes. He watched as Dai started on the ocean but decided to sit down and just wait.
After walking to the edge of the building out of Dai's painting way, Satoshi sat down and watched the sun sink lower. The sun sank even lower across the sky and Mara came up the stairs to join them but sat against the stairwell wall.
When the sun finally set Dai kept up his painting until the light was finally gone. He picked up his paints and easel, careful not to touch the pinting and went down the stairs to the bedroom to finish painting.
When ten finally rolled around Dai walked out of the room, holding the painting in his hands. Satoshi looked around at him then saw he was holding the painting.
"You going to let us see the finished product, Dai?"
Dai nodded and handed Satoshi and Mara, who was sitting beside Satoshi, the painting.
The trees on the right now had green lining, showing dozens ontop of dozens of trees in the black dusk light, The beach had the 'ruffled by hundreds of kids' look to it, at the bottom partof the painting was the edge of the roof and the black outline of someone with their head slightly tilted around towards the sun to show a tiny bit of Satoshi's face and his long tied back hair blowing to the side with light reflecting off of it, while the sun was a third of the way down the ocean and waves lapped out from it, a couple birds could be seen in the corner of the picture flying in a V formation, while clouds drifted over a tiny portion of the sun.
The painting was an astounding work and Mara sat staring at it for a good five minutes before talking. "Thats an amazing painting, Daisuke."
Dai blushed a bit. "Thanks, Mara."
Satoshi turned a bit and looked curiously at Dai. "I was out of you way."
Dai smiled. "It seemed like you just fit in there." A shrug came from Dai. "Cant really explain it."
"Its beautiful anyway." Satoshi said with a wink. "Be better if I wasnt in it." The wink was so Dai knew he was joking.
Dai smiled at Satoshi and hugged him around the neck over the back of the couch. His mouth was beside Satoshi's ear.
"You're just to hot not too paint." He said as he lightly nipped Satoshi's earlobe.
Dai took the painting and walked off. He was tired and ready to hit th sack.
"Im heading to bed, guys. Night." He called over his houlder.
"Night Dai. Sleep tight." Satoshi called back.
"Good night." Mara called.
Dai placed the painting on the easel facing Satoshi's bed and put his jammies on before laying down and falling asleep almost immediatly.
Almost an hour later Satoshi walked in to the still lit room with a slight chuckle. Dai had somehow fallen asleep with the light on.
Satoshi walked over to Dai and combed his fingers through Dai's hair to get it out of his face, then lightly kissed his forehead. He changed into his night clothes then bit Mara good night before turning out the light and laying down.
An owl hooted in the distance as Satoshi drifted off to sleep. His last though was of Dai forgiving him then painting him in one day.
