"That's...not...right," Daisuke said quietly. Ken turned to him, confused.
"What's not right, Dai?" Daisuke looked from side to side.
"Nothing!" he blurted out. He looked at Miyako and she nodded. She knew all along! Daisuke thought. "Um, I've got to go to the bathroom!" With that he got up and left Ken sitting on the couch, still confused.
"Did I...do something?" Ken asked. Miyako shook her head with a grin.
"No," she said as she looked to the hall that Daisuke had just gone down.
"I'll be right back," she said, taking off into the hall. Ken shook his head and took a sip of his hot chocolate. The drink was warm but he still shivered despite its temperature. He looked out the window into the dark. All he could see was the street light and the highlighted snow. Ken smiled. He just loved the snow.

In the hall

"See, I TOLD you, you should have figured this out on your own!" Miyako said. Daisuke looked stunned.
"This isn't right! Why would I have a crush on Ken? He's a guy! And my best friend! And a guy!" He rubbed his face. Miyako put her hand on Daisuke's shoulder.
"This isn't right!" he continued. "I like Hikari!"
Miyako giggled. "Well, maybe you like both, you ever thought about that?" Daisuke looked at her.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, maybe you're Bi. Maybe you like both guys and girls. I think I might be. I don't know for sure, mind you, but I think I might have a crush on Mimi!" Daisuke smiled.
"Mimi?" he asked.
"Yeah, who knows, it might just be admiration but, somehow, I don't think so."
That made Daisuke laugh.
"And I can see how you could think Ken is hot, because, oh, my God! Ken's HOT!"
Miyako put her hand over her mouth. She had just said that WAY to loud.
"Here's what I think you should do. If the Digiworld taught me anything, it's to follow your heart, and if you like Ken, then so be it. If you don't follow your heart you might regret it later on. So just give it some time, and think about how much you really do care about Ken, and how long you've wanted to be with him without even knowing it. If you do that, I think you won't have as much trouble accepting yourself as you are right now." Miyako smiled at him, feeling wise.
"OK...I'll try." Daisuke half smiled back not sure if he was doing the right thing.
"I'm sure it will turn out no matter what you decide! And what EVER you do, you'll remember that I'm always there for you and that I'm always going to be your best friend! Right?" Miyako hugged Daisuke. Daisuke smiled and hugged her back.
"Thanks Miya...that means a lot to me."
"Oh, and one more thing! Don't act all weird, OK?!? You HAVE to remember that its just Ken, your best friend and partner in crime...OK? Act like nothing's changed! Because the truth is, nothing did change. You got it? The last thing you want to do is hurt Ken's feelings! And you know easy that can be!"
Daisuke nodded and got up, walking back to where Ken was. Ken turned.
"WHAT was THAT all about Dai-chan?" Daisuke could feel his face turn red.
"Nothing," he said. Daisuke looked at Ken closer and noticed that he was still shivering. Daisuke sighed and took the same place snuggling against Ken again. Ken smiled and they both got comfortable. Within a few minutes Daisuke was feeling kind of dizzy.
"Ken, I don't feel so good," Daisuke said, dazed.
Ken stopped talking to Miyako and turned. "What is it, Dai? What kind of not feeling good?" Ken took his hands out from under the blanket.
"I just don't feel good I....feel...warm," Daisuke was barely able to speak. Ken felt Daisuke's head and it made him jump.
"Holy shit, Dai! You're burning up!" Ken got off the couch and ran to the sink and soaked a cloth with cold water. He ran back to Daisuke and placed it on his hot forehead. Daisuke groaned. By this time Miyako was standing.
"What! What?" she asked, worriedly. "What's wrong?" Ken didn't answer, just took the blankets off of Daisuke.
"Miya! Get the thermometer. NOW!" he ordered. Miyako ran off into the bathroom and brought it back. She handed it to Ken.
"Daisuke!" Ken stated. "Why didn't you tell me you didn't feel well earlier?"
Daisuke replied with his eyes closed, "Because...I...didn't want to be a nuisance. I thought...that it would...just...go away."
Ken stuck the thermometer in his mouth.
"What is it, Ken?" Miyako asked. V-mon was sitting on her lap.
"He is WAY too hot! I should have been watching him! But I didn't think it was going to be so bad. I guess I was wrong."
"Is he going to be all right?" asked V-mon and Wormmon.
Miyako picked V-mon up and sat him down on her knee.
"He's going to be just fine, V-mon, don't you worry," Miyako said sweetly. But the truth was, Miyako was worried. Daisuke didn't look good at all. Ken took the thermometer out of his mouth and looked at it.
"If it gets any higher, then it could be dangerous," Ken said as he lightly moved Daisuke's red-brown hair out of his eyes. Daisuke smiled at his touch. Ken got up and changed the cloth on Daisuke's forehead. Miyako got up, bringing Daisuke his pillow. She put it under his head. His head moved slightly back and forth on the pillow in discomfort from the fever. Ken sat on the floor and grabbed Daisuke's hand and stroked it lightly with his fingers. Soon Daisuke had calmed down and had fallen asleep.
Ken got up and looked to Miyako.
"It's getting late. Maybe you should go. Not that I want you to, or anything, but, from what I can see, it's still snowing and I don't want you getting stuck." Miyako smiled.
"Yeah, I guess you're right."
V-mon jumped off of Miyako's lap and she stood. Ken glanced at Daisuke and then turned back to Miyako.
"I can only walk you to the door, OK?" he asked. Miyako nodded.
"Sure, I understand," she replied. Ken grabbed Miyako's coat and helped her into it.
"V-mon, Wormmon, you're in charge for a few minutes. Make sure he doesn't wake up. OK?"
V-mon said nothing. He walked up to Daisuke and sat on the floor instead. Ken opened the door and the two walked out. When they looked up, their eyes were wide.
"Oh, my God!" Miyako exclaimed. There were now at least 2, maybe 3, feet of snow on the ground.
"Are you going to be all right walking home in this, Miya?" Ken asked. Miyako turned to Ken.
"I don't think I can! It would take me forever! And it's too cold to be out in this for that long of a time!" Ken took Miyako's hand.
"It's OK, you can stay with us tonight."
Miyako thought about that for a minute.
"Yeah, OK, thank you, Ken. I wasn't looking forward to asking my Mom, Dad or Brother to come pick me up, you know?"
Ken chuckled, "Yeah, I wouldn't be either."
They made their way back to Daisuke's apartment again but when Ken opened the door he heard a cry come from Daisuke. V-mon turned around fast.
"He's having a nightmare and I can't wake him up!"
Ken could see that Daisuke was starting to cry it made his heart break.
"It must be the fever! Sometimes when people have high fevers they can have really bad dreams."
Daisuke was jerking around with tears streaming down his face.
"They're all gone! Ken! Miyako! Takeru! Iroi! They're all dead and I'll never get to see them again!" Daisuke screamed "MIYAKOOO! NO!!!! Its all my falt!!!"
Miyako and Ken tried to wake him up but he was too immersed in the dream.
"KEEEEEN!!!!" He yelled. Ken took his hand.
"I'm right here, Dai! I'm OK! I'm right here!" Ken said, while squeezing his hand.
"MIYA!" Daisuke yelled. Miyako almost started to cry herself.
"I'm right here, Dai-kun! It's me, Miya, I'm OK!"
Daisuke still didn't wake up. He just lay there thrashing around on his pillow. "No..." Daisuke said very quietly now, openly sobbing.
By this time, Ken and Miyako had tears brimming in their eyes. Ken squeezed his hand hard. "Daisuke! Wake up!" Ken yelled. Just then Daisuke's eyes shot open. He lay there not saying a word, his chest heaving and his heart pounding. He just lay there terrified out of his mind.
