~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Chapter 2_ A Girl Named After A Flower~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daisuke stepped outside, it was evening and the sun was dimming, Daisuke slipped around his house. He was wearing all black in hopes to not be seen as much.
"Stay in the shadows and the darkest areas you can see."
"I know" The red head whispered to no one.
The small red head slid as he tripped on a stick falling into a bush.
"Nice, at least you landed where you were hidden." Dark laughed
Daisuke just growled at him, as he poked his head out of the bush and looked around before he stood up and sunk back behind some trees and shadows.
"You okay?" Dark asked still snickering.
"Yea, Yea."
The red head kept going down the street trying to go behind all the houses in their backyards.
"What now" Daisuke asked the older man.
"Either climb or walk."
Daisuke sighed as he started to pull himself up and over the wood fence in his path.
"MMMM" Daisuke growled as he landed on the other side of the fence.
"Hey did you ever think there could be a dog in this yard, I mean why else do you fence in your yard with such an ugly fence."
"Thanks for warning me."
"I thought you might have thought of that."
The red head walked silently across the lawn before stopping to stare at a huge dog sleeping in a cage by the empty trash cans.
"Just keep going"
"How did you know?"
"When you have been sneaking around backyards for as long as I have you just know these things. Or maybe if you have common sense you might think of it. I guess that's just one more thing you don't have."
Daisuke started to walk again not moving his glance from the dog, It was big and a dark brown or maybe black it was getting to dark to tell. The red head lifted himself over the other side of the fence bring himself out of the yard.
"Isn't this her house?"
"No, it's the next one."
The red head climbed up into Lilly's window and looked around, no one was there. Daisuke stepped in and looked around her bed was on the wall to his side it looked extremely soft it had pink blankets and tons of pillows. Next to her bed was a small white end table with a clock, a phone and a vase with a single flower, it was a purple iris the one Daisuke had given her on her first day in his neighborhood.
"What am I suppose to say to her?" Daisuke asked the shadow in his mind.
"Well, do you want to lie or not?"
"I don't want to lie, but I can't tell her about us."
"You make it sound like a bad thing."
"Yea."
"Oh I'm hurtin' Daisuke, I am."
"Well, just tell her you don't want her to tell because you don't know how it got there and you don't want to get in trouble."
"Okay"
Daisuke continued to look around at her room scanning everything; she had a pretty vanity table made of a thin white metal. It had two elegant lamps and all her make up on it.
"Daisuke? What are you doing here?"
"Umm I."
"What if my mom came in or something!?" Lilly said with a slight frown.
"I need to talk to you."
"Why now couldn't it have waited?"
"No it's important."
Lilly just came in from a shower and her hair was up in a towel and she was wearing a soft blue robe. Daisuke could smell her from across the room it was a soft floral sent.
"Did you hear about the paper in the museum?"
"Yea, Daisuke it was mine."
"I know"
"Was it the one I gave you?"
"Yea."
"Daisuke! Did you steel that charm? How could you do that, did you know there has been investigators in my house all day and they wouldn't leave me alone."
"I know, But…"
"They wouldn't leave and now finally I get to go take a shower and have some peace and I come in and now you're here, why is this happening?"
"I don't know how the paper got there but I don't want to get in trouble for something I didn't do, so please don't tell."
"Your sure you didn't do it?"
"Yea, it was someone else I swear, please just say you don't know who you gave it to, I swear I didn't do it or how it got there."
"I won't but what am I supposed to say?"
"I don't know that you gave it to a lot of people so you don't know who it could be."
"And you're sure you didn't do it."
"Do you think I could possibly do that I mean I don't even remember my coat in the morning sometimes. How could I steel?"
"Well okay, I promise I won't tell, but you have to go what if my parents came up or something."
"Okay, I'll see you soon but not till school so it's not suspicious to other people okay?"
"Yea bye" the brunet just stood there still confused by the whole situation.
"Bye"
Daisuke climbed back down Lilly's window and started to make it back towards his house.
Daisuke opened his back door and walked in as he looked around to see if his mom was up still waiting for him. She wasn't and neither was his grandpa, so he went up stairs into his room.
"Good thing I was the one who stole or you would have been lying." The older man laughed from inside.
"Yea, good thing or I would have been lying." Daisuke said making fun of Dark.
"Just like I would have been lying if I told her I didn't know how it got there."
"But you didn't."
"Yea you dropped it."
"NO you only assumed I dropped it I could have put it there or maybe it flew there."
"Oh it flew there, and any way I wasn't lying because I just didn't tell her what I assumed is that it."
"Now you're talking."
Daisuke just sighed as he climbed in bed.
"What a night, hey you even got a small taste of what its like to be a famous theft and how hard it is and how I'm so good."
"Yea, Yea whatever." The red head mumbled as he snuggled into his covers and pillow, falling to sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Morning~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daisuke rolled over pulling all his covers with him.
"mmmm.." the red head whined as the sun shined right into his eyes. He opened them slowly taking in the new light and letting his eyes adjust a bit before sitting up and rubbing his eyes with his sides of his hands. Half awake, the young boy got up and changed his clothes, he looked at the clock, it was 12:00.
"O yea, its Sunday" the boy whispered, sleep still lurking in his voice. He walked out of his room and started down stairs.
"Daisuke, is that you? Are you up?" His mother called to him from the kitchen,
"Yeah!"
"Someone called for you." She said looking up from her magazine.
"Who?" Daisuke asked watching his mother take a sip of her tea.
"Some girl named Lilly…….isn't that a pretty name, a girl named after a flower"
"Yea I guess, when did she call?"
"Um…..around eleven, I'm not sure." His mother shrugged and took another sip of her tea.
He picked up the phone and dialed a number he had memorized along with so many others.
"Hello" an unfamiliar voice answered
"Hi, is Lilly there?"
"Hold on a moment please." there was a pause on the other line.
"Hi"
"Hey. This is Daisuke"
"Hi, what's up?"
"My mom said you called."
"O Yea, I was thinking about what you said to me the other night and…….I just don't know if I believe you. I want to, but I just don't think if you were as innocent as you say you are, you would care so much."
"Tell her u were just really nervous" dark said inside the boys and.
"…..Well, I was just nervous, I didn't want to get in trouble, I…I..I was just scared."
"……………….."
"Lilly, you got to believe me, I didn't, I could never,……..please…Lilly?"
"…I…..I won't tell but……..I just don't know, ……I have to go" she hung up.
Daisuke slowly hung up the phone.
"Well that went well."
"O sure, that went great" Daisuke sighed sarcastically.
"It did, she isn't going to tell, that's all that matters." Dark reassured.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Monday~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You're going to be late!" his mother called up.
"I'm going!" the red head yelled pulling on his coat and dashing out the door.
"Mm" Daisuke let out a small noise as he bumped into someone.
"Sorry" he mumbled as he looked up to see who he had run into.
"Its fine" the brunet said stepping back "I was thinking about everything, and I wanted to say I'm sorry about not believing you, I mean how could u do that, your only 14."
"……..Its ok, I'm just glade you believe me now" Daisuke said looking down at his shoes, he felt bad she was believing his lies.
"What's the matter?" she asked concerned.
"Nothing, I'm fine." Daisuke looked up with a smile. She smiled back, taking his hand and starting to walk towards their school. The red head looked down at their hands a little in shock, but quickly shrugging it off and following her.
"I see you remembered you coat this time." brunet giggling as she looked at him. He blushed slightly.
" I don't think I could forget it two days in a row, especially after freezing" he laughed turning back to see their school coming into view.
"Hey look its those twins." Lilly said pointing.
"You mean Risa and Ricu." he said smiling, as he watched the to girls playing about 15 feet in front of them in the snow.
"They seem really nice, that one with the long hair is always looking at me" she giggled
"Maybe she wants to be your friend" Daisuke suggested
"Is she shy?" the brunet asked
"Not really" he shrugged
"Then why doesn't she just come up to me and say hi"
"I don't know, maybe she is waiting for the right time."
"HEY!!!!!" Ricu waved when she noticed them walking toward her and her sister.
"HI!!!!!" Lilly called back waving as the twins ran up to greet them.
"Hi" Risa said
"I'm Ricu and this is my sister Risa" The shorter hair girl introduced them to the brunet.
"I'm Lilly, it's a pleasure to meet you."
"What'cha doing?" the red head asked
"Well we started to walk early today, so we decided to stop and play for a while" The shorter hair smiled.
"Do you guys want to walk with us?" Lilly smiled.
"Sure, we'd love to" Ricu elbowed her sister who gave a quick frown intended for only her to see.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Later in School~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The brunet looked up as someone sat down in front of her.
"Hi Lilly" The short hair greeted with a smile.
"Hi, can I ask you a question?" brunet said looking around the cafeteria to make sure Daisuke and Risa weren't anywhere near them.
"Sure"
"Well, I just wanted to know…..is it just me or does Risa…….just not like me?" The short hair frowned at the question, before sighing and looking down at her lunch; she had a sandwich, a drink, and some homemade cookies.
"Well……it isn't you." she paused "Its more like what your getting" she paused again this time looking up at Lilly's confused face. She sighed again.
"Risa just….she doesn't like you only because……you are with Daisuke so much, its not you, yourself."
"She likes Daisuke?" brunet asked a little confusion running off her face.
"Well…..sort of. She won't admit it but I think she has a small crush on him…..or maybe a really big one, by the way she acts all the time." Ricu shrugged.
"So she doesn't like me because she is jealous of me" Lilly stated, contemplating this in her head.
"Yup" short head nodding.
"Well…..I think it is completely rude…you can't just not like someone because of someone else…..She doesn't even know me…and….she most definitely doesn't know Daisuke." brunet looked down at her lunch sadly.
"What is it?" Ricu asked concerned.
"Its just…..Daisuke…..he doesn't……." the brunet was cut off as Risa sat down next to her sister.
"Hi" she said to them both with a half fake smile.
"We were just talking about…." the short hair trailed
"Water colors" Lilly smiled. "I love to water color, mostly flowers though." Ricu nodded.
"I have seen some beautiful pieces before, I would love to be able to paint like that someday." Ricu said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~After school with the twins~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ricu opened the door to her house and stepped in with her sister.
"WE"RE HOME!!" short hair called out into the house, no one answered.
"Guess no one is home." Risa shrugged. He sister only nodded in response, before the made there way up stairs to their separate rooms. Risa's was the one on the right said of the hall and Ricu's was in the middle, to the left was a bathroom they shared and a laundry room. Their parent's room was down the opposite side off the hall along with their shared bathroom.
"Risa?" long hair stopping and turning to face her sister.
"What?" she asked
"Well……I think you should give Lilly a chance." Ricu said with a reassuring smile, before she turned and went into her room shutting the door behind her. Risa frowned why does she care so much, she just met this girl, were they friends already? Probably Ricu made friends fast but still that doesn't mean I have to befriend all of my sister's friends, especially if the are my rival. Risa frowned harder and turned to her bedroom.
"In less!?" a mysterious smile ran over her lips.
I hope everyone like it! J I will have more up soon, thanks for reading make sure to R&R please.
