Takeru's Secret

Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon. If I did, the show certainly wouldn't be classed as a children's show. I don't own Garbage, or any of their songs, but I would proudly admit if I did. Their songs rock!

A/N: Sheesh. Took me ages to get this done… Sorry Minna-san. I've been kinda busy, trying to balance my homework, social life and writing. But I'm not going out tonight, and I took the day off school, so I'm doing some writing… instead of the mountain of French homework I should be doing…

Chapter 1: Androgyny

~10 years later~

"Hey sweet thing," Toji said, sliding an arm around Takeru's slender shoulders with the familiar ease of long acquaintance.

"Toji." Takeru greeted flatly, peeling the arm off his shoulders.

"Heard you had a wet dream about me last night[1]," The older boy began.

"Yeah, I dreamt about you naked and pissed myself laughing."

Toji's face fell, "You never say anything nice to me 'Keru. I'm always nice to you."

Takeru pursed his lips, "That's debatable."

Toji pouted, "So how about a date cutie? I'll settle for a kiss…"

Takeru slid off his seat, "You know the answer to that."

Toji leaned forward "One of these days 'Keru-chan."

"Nice to see you back here 'Keru anyway. You planning on using the pole tonight?" The bartender broke in before Toji could press any further.

Takeru shrugged, "Maybe. Who else is here tonight?"

"Quat and Duet are working the bar. Duet might sing later."

Takeru nodded, "Any of the other girls working?"

"Shin's taken drudge duty, so you'll be dancing on your own."

"Alone?" Takeru said, his voice wavering almost indiscernibly.

"'Keru, you're the best dancer this club has. You're beautiful, you're sexy, you're the best looking woman in the whole joint. Now get up there and dance."

Takeru blushed, "Hai…" He pulled himself onto the bar, ignoring the stares and catcalls his tight leather hotpants and boob tube brought.

Without even waiting for a new song to begin he began to dance, strutting up and down the bar, overlooking the fact that he was being groped by half the men sitting at the bar.

//With your cherry lips and golden curls

You could make grown men gasp when you go walking past them//

Takeru grinned and spun as he reached the end of the bar and bent to kiss the man in front of him teasingly, enough to interest them but not enough to make them actually believe he was interested in them.

He spun back up and danced across the bar, using the pole to great effect. He carefully manoeuvred himself so he was perfectly positioned to please the crowd, then stole another kiss from the closest guy.

He pulled away, grinning mischievously and met the adolescents dark brown eyes with his own deep blue. His heart skipped a beat as recognition flared in those deep brown eyes…

'Daisuke' Takeru realised, 'Oh fuck!' He pulled himself up and danced back over to the pole, hoping he wasn't blushing as badly as his cheeks were burning. He snuck another look over at Daisuke only to see the boy staring back at him, lust glazed eyes, blissfully unaware of who he was. Takeru breathed a sigh of relief, and found another customer to skilfully seduce.

//In your hot pants and high heels

They could not believe that such a body was for real//

He could hear the gasps and pants from various males as he walked past. He wondered, not for the first time what the men would say if they knew he was a guy, what Daisuke would say. Takeru tried to concentrate on dancing. He really didn't want to think about the fact that he'd just kissed his best friend.

His best friend who just happened to be straight.

His best friend who just happened to be going out with Takeru's ex- girlfriend Hikari.

His best friend who had just cheated on Hikari.

Takeru felt himself getting angrier as he looked over to see Daisuke still staring at him lustfully.

'Motomiya Daisuke… you may be my best friend, but you just cheated on the most wonderful girl in the universe, and for that you're going to pay. We'll see just how far you'll go, and then Hikari-chan's going to find out all about this.

A/N: Okay, Sorry this is so short… but I'm sort of busy, and I wanted to get this out. I'm going off to get smashed with my friends! Have a great Easter people. Luv y'all. And review. Please? I was so happy by the number of reviews I got for the first chapter, cos I never get lots of reviews.. so more if possible?

Anyway as to everyone who reviewed

Reenimon, I know, I figured if Matt and Tai and Ken and Davis could crossdress why not T.K.? LOL. Anyway, I always thought T.K. would look adorable in a dress. Thanks a million for your review, and I hope you enjoy this chapter.

never*gonna*get*it, yes, I did make T.K. older. I just can't have a crossdressing 7 year old. The prologue was just to sorta set the scene.

Lil Gracey, I'm actually not a huge fan of Takesuke/Daikeru, but it really fit for this fic, so yes I think I'll do that. Maybe. It's also got a few Daikari, Takari hints as well… So I don't know what'll happen there. I don't want to be mean to Kari… again.

Sapphire Goddess, T.K. does need to lose the hat/helmet. But I guess it's a good disguise. Thanks for the review, I so love getting reviews!

Syenite kai, I like lil' girly Takeru… he's so fun to play with. Thanks a ton for the review. I love your fics by the way they're so awesome…

Digistar, Glad you liked. I liked that line too. I've got to quit bashing Kari so much, considering she's my favourite digi chick.

AngelicMouseGirl, Um thanks… I think… ^_^ No I think it's weird too and I'm writing it. I hope you read/enjoy this chapter.

Ja~
