"Hello? This is June speaking!"

"Hi, June!" Ken said into the phone, "Its Ken. How are you?"

June smiled.

"I'm fine! And you?"

"I'm OK, but, June, would I be able to speak to your mom? Is she there?"

June looked at her mom in the kitchen.

"Yeah, she's here, just a sec."

"Thanks!"

"That's OK!"

Ken heard the click of the phone as it was placed on the table and June in the back ground calling her mom to the phone. A few seconds later Mrs.Motomiya came to the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hi! Its Ken." he stated.

"Oh, Hi Ken!"

Ken cleared his throat.

"Um, I've got some bad news."

"Oh, what's that, Ken-chan?" she said getting a little worried.

"Well, its Daisuke. He has a little bit of a fever and he doesn't feel very good."

Mrs.Motomiya shifted her weight on her feet.

"Is he OK?" she asked.

"Oh, Daisuke is just fine; he just wants to come home, you know?"

"Mmm... I know. All right, where are you and I'll come and pick him up right away."

Ken sighed.

"See, here's the problem…"

"Problem? What kind of problem?" she asked.

"Well, I think he has the Chicken Pox and I know none of you in your family has had it, so what do we do about that?" he asked.

"Oh dear, that IS a problem... well, the only thing I can think of is to ask my mom to come and take care of him. She's the only one that's had it and lives in this area."

Ken smiled.

"Oh, that's good! I'll tell Daisuke then."

"OK. I guess we are just going to have to move out to a hotel or something until he is better... but I hate to leave just when he needs me the most! I guess we don't have a choice, though."

"Mmm..." Ken stated.

"OK, Ken, thank you so much for telling me! I'm so glad that Daisuke has a friend like you!"

Ken blushed and smiled over the phone.

"Thanks!" He said quietly, "And don't worry about Dai-chan! I'll make sure he gets home safe! OK? And I'm going to wait with him until his grandma gets there! OK?"

Mrs.Motomiya smiled.

"OK, Ken-chan, thank you!"

"No thanks needed. I want to see him well as much as you do! So no worries there!"

"OK, bye Ken."

"Bye!" Ken hung up the phone and walked back to the seat.

Daisuke didn't even know he was there until he felt Ken stroke his soft rust-coloured hair.

"Were going to your house now," Ken whispered. "I spoke with your mother and she and the rest of your family are going to move out and stay at a hotel for the time being until you're better, OK?"

Daisuke looked up and Ken felt a pang of guilt seeing Daisuke's hurt face.

"Even June?" Daisuke asked quietly.

"Yeah, June too." Ken nodded.

"But..." Daisuke began. "She always takes care of me when I'm sick. I don't think there's been a time when I've been sick and she hasn't taken care of me."

Ken smiled and his guilt was replaced with sadness as he remembered when Osama nursed him back to health after he had caught the flu. Ken stuck the thought away and looked back at Daisuke who had put his face back in his arms on the table.

"Well, your grandma is going to come and take care of you instead of June this time." Ken stated.

Daisuke's head shot up.

"NANII!" he yelled. "Grandma! Did you just say my grandma is coming to take care of me!"

Ken winced at the tone in Daisuke's voice.

"Yes, is that a bad thing? What's wrong with your grandma?"

"Oh, nothing besides the fact that she's an old BAG! She was the one that put coal in June and my stockings when we were really young because we didn't eat all our veggies at dinner! June was traumatized! And this one time when she was taking care of us I got sick then too and she thought I was faking it to get myself out of school so she sent me any way! I ended up almost having to go to the hospital because my fever got so high! MAN I HATE THAT LADY!"

Ken bit his lower lip.

"That doesn't sound very pleasant!" Ken said. "But there is really nothing I can do about it!"

Daisuke moaned and slowly got to his feet which weren't quite reliable any more.

"Come on!" Daisuke stated, "I better get home before I get any worse!"

Ken frowned at Daisuke's untouched drink. He got to his feet as well, and helped Daisuke out the door.

"It's a good thing you live so close to the school, Dai!" Ken said trying to cheer him up a little.

"Mmm..." was all Daisuke could get out as they trudged through the snow. They arrived at Daisuke's apartment and went inside. They both stamped their feet at the door and took off their warm winter clothes. Daisuke scratched his leg and Ken swatted his hand away.

"Don't Daisuke! You're going to make it worse!"

Daisuke raised an eyebrow.

"What, are you my mother? I can scratch if I want to!" With that Daisuke began to scratch once more.

Ken smacked his hand away much harder this time and Daisuke drew it back fast.

"OWCH! OK! OK! I WON'T SCRATCH! I WON'T SCRATCH!"

Daisuke shook his hand in the air to get the sting off. Ken chuckled.

"Come on dufis, let's get you to bed."

Daisuke nodded and they both headed down the hall for Daisuke's bedroom. Daisuke took off his shirt and climbed into bed.

"Can I get you something?" Ken asked.

"Um... well, I'm kinda' hungry..." Daisuke looked away feeling bad that he was asking his best friend to do that for him.

"I can make you some chicken noodle soup! How about that?" Ken smiled.

Daisuke smiled back.

"Yes please! If its not too much trouble..."

Ken shook his head.

"Nope, not at all! And if you want something else, then just ask! OK?"

Ken shut off the light.

"Try to get some rest while I make you some lunch! OK?"

Daisuke just yawned and closed his eyes. Ken shut the door and made his way down the hall and into the kitchen feeling rather like he owned the small apartment. He opened the cupboard and got the necessities he needed to cook some soup. The phone rang and he picked it up.

"Hello? Motomiya residence."

"Hi Ken!" the person on the other line chimed. "Its Mrs.Motomiya. How is Daisuke?"

Ken pressed the phone up against his shoulder and neck as he used his hands to open the can of chicken noodle soup.

"Daisuke is sleeping right now and I'm making him some chicken noodle soup!" Ken said with a happy tone. Ken dumped the soup into a pot and turned the stove on. He took the phone back in his hands.

"Ah, Ken-chan, that's so nice of you!" She hesitated for a few seconds and Ken knew she was worried about something.

"Is there something wrong?" Ken asked. "Are... you OK?" He stirred the soup waiting for an answer.

"Well, not exactly....no." She laughed.

Ken stopped stirring to listen closer.

"Oh...." he said curiously.

She cleared her throat.

"Well, I just phoned my mom..." she began, "And she has something to do with her flower club and they have this big conference thingy all the way up in north Hokaido and she can't take care of Daisuke...."

There was a long pause over the phone as Ken held his breath hoping that she would ask him.

"Oh!" she stated, "I hate to ask you this, Ken, I really do but... you're the only one of Daisuke's friends that I can trust my son's safety with!"

Ken shut his eyes feeling good that someone other then his mom and dad trusted him to be a mature adult.

She paused again.

"Could... could you take care of Daisuke for me?"

Ken jumped in the air and proceeded to do a happy dance around the kitchen, but still kept his composure over the phone.

"Well, I'm honored you trust me with your son like this!" He grinned wide. "And he is my best friend, so yeah! I would love to take care of him for you! I mean the poor guy would probably like to see a familiar face around the house! Right?"

Daisuke's mom sighed in relief.

"I'm so glad you feel this way, Ken! I was so afraid that you were going to see this as a big bother! As much as I know you do love Daisuke, taking care of someone when they're sick can be a handful! Thank you, Ken, thank you so much!"

Ken took the soup off the stove and turned it off.

"That's OK! As you said, I DO love Daisuke very much and I would do anything for him even if that means taking care of him when he's got the Chicken Pox!" Ken gave a quiet little laugh. "Oh, and don't worry about him! I know a ton about the Chicken Pox virus! I did a project on it last term!"

"OK, Ken, I'll phone you tonight then to see how he's doing. So I'll talk to you then, Bye!"

"Bye!" Ken heard the phone click and he put his down as well. He took a deep breath and let it out in a happy squeal and then did another happy dance around the kitchen. He stopped dead in his tracks however, hearing hysterical laughter coming from the other side of the room. Ken relaxed and walked over to the source.

"And what, may I ask, is so funny?" Ken asked.

V-mon looked up at Ken still laughing.

"YOU!" he blurted out.

Ken picked V-mon up so his weight was resting on Ken's hip and his legs were on either side of Ken. Ken bent his back to counteract V-mon's weight.

"I can see Daisuke dance around in the kitchen like an idiot any day! But I would pay to see YOU do that again!"

Feeling very happy that Daisuke's mom gave him the job and that Ken would be able to spend at least the next week with his best friend in the whole world also made him feel a bit cheeky. Ken made a funny face and shifted V- mon's weight so that he was under one arm and hand instead of two. He took his free hand and grabbed V-mon's and started to do a really bad version of the Tango.

V-mon burst into laughter as Ken walked over to the back of the couch and drop V-mon onto it. V-mon landed on his back with a giggle. Ken poked him in the stomach.

"Come on squirt, Dai doesn't feel the best and I made him some chicken noodle soup to cheer him up!" V-mon jumped off the couch.

"Is he going to be all right?" V-mon asked looking up at his half partner. Ken smiled down at the little blue Digimon.

"He's going to be just fine!" Ken smiled, "Now come on, but don't be loud because he's sleeping and we want to wake him up nicely. OK?"

V-mon nodded and bounded down the hall to Daisuke's room. Ken followed him with a tray in his hands.

V-mon reached for the doorknob and turned it. He slowly walked in with Ken right behind him. Ken set the tray of hot soup near Daisuke's bed. He sat on the bed and it bowed under his weight. Daisuke lightly slid up against Ken's body. Ken stroked Daisuke's hair as he slept and Daisuke smiled in his sleep. A smile crossed Ken's lips as well. Daisuke started to mumble and Ken listened to what he was saying. He turned to V-mon who was listening, too. Ken's head shot back to face Daisuke after hearing his own name. Ken leaned closer. Did I wake him up? Ken thought. He looked, but yet Daisuke was still fast asleep. Ken's eyes widened after hearing his name again. Ken continued to stroke Daisuke's hair.

"Ken..." Daisuke whispered again, "Ken...you're..."

Ken leaned in ever so slightly to hear better.

"Ken... you're..." he mumbled again, "You're...pretty!"

Ken's hand shot off of Daisuke's hair and he stood up fast in shock, hitting his head hard on the top bunk.

"SON OF A BITCH!" Ken yelled grabbing his head and falling to the ground. Daisuke woke up in a fright.

"What! What!" Daisuke looked around and then looked at Ken. He took his hand away from his chest.

"WELL! GOOD MORNING TO YOU, TOO! SWEETEI!" Daisuke said taking a deep breath. Ken just moaned.

"Oh, I'm going to have a lump there, I just know it!"
