Disclaimer - Wow! Can't believe I stuck to this story for this long. So I wanted to go ahead and thank those who took the time to read my fan fiction and place a review. Its so great to have such great motivation from all of you ! Well anyways here's the next chapter to Love or Hate and its time to reveal the titles real purpose.

Chapter Seven = Love or Hate: Daisuke's Decision

"Riku…hehehe…what brings you here?" She looked up at me and smiled. But something was definitely wrong with her. I could just tell by the way she was looking at me.

"Um…Daisuke. I was just waiting for you to come by." She took my hand and pulled me closer towards her. But the strange thing was that my DNA didn't react to it at all. "I need to tell you something really important."

"Oh ok." We walked for sometime in silence, her a little ahead of me, but strangely she didn't have that bounce in her step as she usually did. I knew for sure something was wrong and I knew that's why she was taking me somewhere to tell me. It must have been awful.

We finally got to the end of my street where I could see my home so close by. But when I turned my head back towards Riku, I didn't see a sign of her. What in the…How in the world…?

"Riku! Where are you? Riku!" I ran down the street and turned the corner when… "WAH!" someone had pulled me down, stopping me from running. I fell straight onto my back, pain instantly met me when I made contact with the ground. "Eugh…What in the…?" And then everything went downhill from there.

When I opened my eyes, I found Riku. But it wasn't exactly what I expected because she was standing so close to my face that I thought she was going to kiss me. She had tears in her eyes and she pulled away from me and started to cry a ton. I thought for sure she was going to drown in her own tears. I felt terrible. I didn't know what to do as my mind was racing around in circles. So I did the only thing that I thought was a good idea at the moment and held her in my arms.

She cried on me for so long but I didn't care. I only wanted to help her to smile again. I only wanted her to be happy once more. This was definitely a bad move. I realized that her tears too were crystallizing into crystals like Rei's tears had. But thinking of Rei made my insides hurt a lot. Finally she stopped crying and looked up at me and before I knew it, she kissed me. I couldn't believe it. Riku, Dark's love, was kissing me. My face turned bright red as I looked down at her and that's when I saw Risa.

She was with her boyfriend when she ran into us. Her face was in a state of shock. I pushed Riku off me and stood up, my face so red that I looked like a giant cherry. Risa looked mad. Real mad.

"HOW COULD YOU?"

"Risa! Wait! This isn't what it looks like!" but she turned around and ran down the street but before she ran out of site, I caught a glimpse of her face and to my horror, she too was crying and in a strange twist of fate, her tears too fell down and crystallized.

"Argh…why is this happening to me!?" By now Risa's boyfriend chased after her and Riku was standing beside me, holding my arm. I turned to face her and pushed her arms length away to speak to her.

"Riku. What's going on here?" Riku looked away. She too looked angry.

"Stupid twin. Always selfish."

"Riku! Tell me why she was crying!" She sat down on a nearby bench and stared straight at the sidewalk as if all her problems would just go away. I walked to her and sat next to her. She looked really depressed. She didn't look well at all as if she were going to be sick any moment. I placed my hand on her shoulder and she looked at me, sad. "Please…Please Riku."

"I-I-I CAN'T!" She started to cry again. "I don't know why I'm crying. I just can't help it. Daisuke, I don't know what to do anymore."

"Riku, please. I want to help." She bit her lip and her face turned red as she placed her hands onto her lap.

"I don't know how to say this any straighter but…um…Daisuke. I think I'm in love with you." At these very words I turned numb. My head went absolutely blank as I stared into her eyes. She turned her head in embarrassment as she started to stare down at her shoes. "And that's why Risa was crying when she saw me kiss you." Risa…

"She too loves you." I couldn't believe this. Just a couple of months ago I wanted Risa to notice me, share the same exact feelings I had for her. I wanted her to understand that I loved her more than any other. She was after all my first love.

"But…but you two…" What's happening here?

"Yes…but I don't know how to explain this any other way…I feel happiest when I'm with you…and saddest."

"Riku…I…"

"But at the same time…even though I love you…I hate you too."

"Wah!" What did she just say?!

"I'm sorry. Daisuke I don't want to be hurt." And without another word she ran off, trailing behind her crystal tears.

"But Riku…hmm…" Things got really complicated. I didn't understand what was going on. How could I? Riku loves me, Risa loves me, what next! Will Rei too come up to me and say I love you Daisuke. ARGH! I couldn't take it anymore. What was I to do?

Just go and dump them off! Lets go and take what we lost.

"Dark. Where have you been the entire time?" Just go and find the next treasure.

"Shut up! I don't want to steal now. I don't want to have to deal with all this." REI!!!!

"Eep…" And that's was it. BAM! And there you have Dark. I didn't understand why I changed. All he did was say that girl's stupid name and her face popped up inside my head. I couldn't believe it. Her image reacted my DNA. Was it I who loved her? Did I love her and not love the other two as well?

DARK! What the heck are you doing?!

"Shut up! We are a team! We can't let these girls get in the way of our goal! I won't let it happened!" Dark jumped up on top of the closest tree and from there he jumped to the next roof top. And before I could reject this he was already in front of my home.

What are we doing here Dark? Change back! CHANGE BACK NOW!

"No! I will not listen to a stupid kid like you. You won't get in my way any longer. Not after this next steal!" He jumped into my open window where sitting inside was my mother. She gave Dark a smile.

"Figured as much. Catch." She threw something at Dark, which he was able to dodge easily and in his view was a picture of his love…

"Huh…Riku." And in an instant he turned back into me. I was finally free from my unwanted transformation. It was over.

"Daisuke-honey. Are you okay?" I was trembling. My hands wouldn't stop shaking. I fell to the floor and tears began to fall down my face.

"Mom…I AM NEVER GOING TO BECOME DARK EVER AGAIN!"
