Tomoki: Ooh! I'm Luna's muse again!
Muse? No, I just use you to do the disclaimer cause I feel sorry for you because no one writes about you.
Tomoki: Ooh -_-; Well... Luna doesn't own Digimon, regretfully. So that means she doesn't own me. I guess I should be happy about that.
Alone with a freak
Part one
It was a quiet day at school. So quiet it was weird. Why was it so quiet? Takuya wasn't feeling well, and he was quiet for once. At lunch time, he barely ate and and just sat there doing nothing.
Worried, Izumi held out an hand on his friend's forehead. " Takuya, you're burning hot. You should go home!"
" I'm fine! Really I'm fine! See?" Takuya proceeded to do a few push ups, to show that he was fine. But he fell flat on his stomac in the process. " Ok, I'm just a little tired. But I'm fine."
Kouji sighed. " Why can't you admit you're sick? Always showing off..."
" You would do the same, and you know it!" Takuya said back.
" No, I'm never sick."
" True. They say fools can't catch colds." Takuya whispered.
" I heard that!"
The last class of the day was gym class. Takuya played dodgeball like the rest of them, his face flushed and sweating twice as much. Sitting on the bench waiting for his turn, Kouji eyed the brunette suspiciously. He had to admit, Takuya sure had a lot of determination. But he would just end up hurting himself like that.
" Takuya! Take it easy , you idiot!"
" Shut up, Kouji! I'm f..." the boy was unable to finish, he had just received the ball hard in the face. He fell on the floor, with spirals in his eyes. A few guys gathered around him to see if he was ok.
" That moron!" Kouji put his hand on his face, in an exasperated manner.
After school was finally over, Takuya was recovering from a nose bleed and Kouji was taking him home.
" I can get home by myself you know!"
" The nurse asked for someone to take you home, remember? In case you'll fall down in the street!"
" Yeah right!" Having said that, Takuya tripped and fell.
" See??" Kouji helped him up and helped him walk.
" Ugh..." Takuya was definitely not well. " Thanks for taking me... I do appreciate it."
" Don't mention it. Really, don't." Takuya was getting heavier to support but his house was almost in sight. " We're almost there. Your mom will take care of you."
Takuya had trouble walking on his own at this point. " No she won't. She's out to visit Grandma today... and my dad is on a business trip... And Shinya is fooling around somewhere...and I'm..." Takuya fell unconscious on the ground, in front of a worried Kouji.
" Takuya? Takuya!"
Takuya woke up in his bed, Kouji had carried him all the way there. " Uh? What? Where am I?" he panicked.
Kouji was sitting by his side and tried his best to calm down the other boy. " Hey! It's okay! You're home! In your bed!" Kouji was feeling uncomfortable about the situation, but he couldn't leave Takuya all alone in his condition.
" Oh. Right. My bed... Who're you?" Takuya pointed at his friend.
" Err... Hold on a second." The ponytailed boy went in the bathroom and found a thermometer. He came back and stuck it in Takuya's mouth.
" Ack! What are you doing? Ah! I don't do drugs!" Takuya coughed it up.
" What are you talking about? Let me take your temperature, you idiot!" He forced the thermometer back in the boy's mouth, and held it there with both his hands as Takuya was trying to shake free. " Cut it out!" The object finally beeped, and Kouji took it out.
" 105 degrees... Oh man, that's bad, isn't it? Stay there!" Kouji went down and came up with cold water and a towel. But Takuya had disapeared from his bed. " Where is he??" The boy nervously looked for Takuya. Who knows what the sick boy could be up to? He heard the sound of the toilet flush, and sighed in relief. " Takuya! There you are! You scared me. Go back to bed."
" I was just in the bathroom. Gee, mister. You need to calm down." Takuya tried to climb back in bed, but fell flat on his face.
Kouji picked him up. " What are you doing? Your bed is over there!" He held the boy in his arms and carried him. Kouji blushed as Takuya cuddled against him. " Wha-what are you doing, Takuya?"
" Mom, you finally got me a tiger! Thanks!"
Kouji sweatdropped. Something was really wrong with Takuya. He put him down on his bed. Then he had a bad feeling he had to check about... He went to check the bathroom Takuya just used.
Kouji gasped. "Ugh. I am NOT cleaning this up!"
Sure enough, Takuya had missed the bowl... Kouji camed back to his friend to find him laying on the ground again.
" Takuya, for god's sake, stay in your bed!" Kouji picked him up again " You're heavy, you know?"
" But I love it when you hold me in your arms, mister tiger!" and he brushed his cheek againt Kouji's chest again.
And Kouji was worried. Worried because of Takuya's behavior, and worried because he actually liked it when Takuya cuddled against him... He put a wet towel on Takuya's forehead, and the sick boy seemed to settle down a bit. But Kouji was still scared. He didn't know how to take care of a sick person, let alone a delirious one. He needed help. He took out his cell phone.
Meanwhile, back in school.
" My brother senses are tingling!" Kouichi got out his cell phone before it even rang.
" Mister Kimura, cell phones are not allowed in detention! Please bring that to the front!"
Kouichi grumbled and gave his cell to the teacher there. He sat back in his place, just as the phone ringed.
" Let me get that! I'm sure it's important!" the boy said.
" You should have thought of that before you threw that stapler at Shinozaki's head!"
" But sir, " Kouichi complained. " He was SO asking for it!
" Get back to work, mister Kimura."
Back at Takuya's house.
" Dammit, Kouichi! Why won't you pick up the phone? I need help!"
" Ooh! Look! Butterflies!" Takuya pointed at nothing at the ceiling.
Kouji was really freaked out now. He decided to call Izumi instead. Girls are supposed to be smart, right? She'll know what to do, right?
" Hello? This is Izumi speaking." The girl said on the other side of the line.
" Izumi! It's me! I'm alone with Takuya, and he's not well. He has a high fever and he's having hallucinations now!"
Izumi was surprised because it was the first time she heard the younger twin panic. " Oh my! Make him cool down."
" How??"
" Ask him to take a cold bath."
" What? He won't listen to me, he doesn't even remember who I am!"
" Then make him take one!"
Kouji shuddered. " But then I'll have to step in Takuya's...ok, fine. Thanks Izumi."
The nervous boy hanged up, and eyed Takuya who was now eating his pillow. Oh boy. How would Kouji get Takuya to take a bath?
