-The next morning-
(Daisuke! Daisuke! Wake up!) A voice called to the sleeping Niwa boy, groaning he turned over grumbling sleepily.
"What?"
(What were you thinking last night?) The voice belonged to Dark, apparently Krad's curse had finally worn off. (I may have been paralyzed but I could hear, see, and feel everything you did.) Last night's images flashed in Daisuke's mind, remembering it all he sat up in bed.
"You witnessed everything!"
(I had no choice!) From the sound of Dark's voice he was not happy. (Out of everyone, why that creepy Hiwatari! He is the one that's out to capture us remember!)
"He's out to get you, not me." Daisuke defended.
(And how do you know that? How do you know this isn't all is just some trick to get you to let your guard down?)
"I…I…Don't." He confessed. "But…I trust him."
(Do you?)
"…I don't know…"
(Do you even like him Daisuke? Have you forgotten about the Haradas?)
"The Haradas! Dark they saw Satoshi change, you have to do something!" Dark sighed in Daisuke's mind.
(Yes I know that I'll take care if it. But answer my question, do you even like him?) All these questions, they were getting to be too much. Daisuke wasn't sure what he felt, why he did what he did. Did he sleep with Satoshi because in reality he felt something for the boy? Or was it just a caught in the moment one night stand? (You're confusing your emotions, this is just a simple infatuation. You liked the feeling of him comforting you that's all.)
"Why do you even care Dark? "
(I don't want you making a mistake.) At that moment Satoshi came into the room, apparently he had just gotten out of the shower. His blue hair was drenched and he had a towel around his waist.
"Daisuke you're awake." He greeted him with a smile, Daisuke looked away. He was considering Dark's words, maybe it really was just an infatuation. If so he couldn't bare to look at the boy in front of him half naked, and only wearing a towel that could easily be slipped off.
(Don't even go there Daisuke.) Dark warned when the boy's mind began to drift down to the gutter. Satoshi slowly walked over to the side of the bed and sat down next to him. He gave him an affectionate good morning kiss on the cheek. (Daisuke we need to leave now!) Satoshi gave him another kiss this time on the neck, then lower to the collar bone. His hands roaming his body sliding downwards to between his legs. Daisuke's heart was hammering, he felt uneasy nothing seemed right about this at all. What had he been thinking last night? Dark was right he had been caught in the moment, it was just his hormones going crazy it didn't mean anything. Satoshi's hand touched Daisuke's genitals, that pushed him and mostly Dark over the limit.
"STOP IT!" Daisuke shouted slapping Satoshi's hand away. Satoshi appeared confused by the sudden reaction.
"…Daisuke?"
" I'm not comfortable with this!" He stood grabbing his clothes that had been strewn on the floor. "I need to get home, things are moving way too fast." He pulled on the pants and zipped them his shirt was still in the living room.
"Daisuke, wait I'm sorry." Satoshi apologized, but Daisuke didn't appear to be listening. He followed him to the living room and watched as he slid his shirt on and prepared to leave. "Daisuke."
"I have to go Hiwatari…Bye." With that said he left. Satoshi remained where he stood motionless. What had caused Daisuke to react in such a way?
(Isn't it obvious Master Satoshi, he was playing you for a fool. The boy doesn't love you.)
"Krad?"
(It's unfortunate that Dark's little hex worked on me. If I could I would have come out while you were screwing that Niwa. Then I would have had lots of fun!) Krad grinned to the thought of taking control and torturing the red haired boy while Satoshi was forced to watch unable to prevent it.
"I would die before I ever let you do such a thing." He hissed to the demon in him. "And if I were to die now, that would mean no future generation of Hikari. So you would die along with me."
(And you're telling me this why?)
"I'm just warning you, if anything happens to Daisuke, if you ever harm him or succeed in your foul plans…I will kill you. By killing myself."
Meanwhile Daisuke was walking home, he was feeling frantic. "Why did I react like that? I don't know what I'm doing or thinking anymore. Dark what's going on?"
(Beats me.)
"Dark! I'm serious. I don't understand, last night I felt great and was happy. But today it's like all that changed now I'm feeling guilty for treating him so coldly."
(Why are you even worrying? Satoshi is a creep, you're much better off without him.)
"…Part of me wants to agree, but something else says otherwise." He sighed. "things are so confusing." Dark and Daisuke didn't talk the rest of the walk home. As soon as Daisuke opened the door his mother Emiko was standing there waiting. She did not appear to be happy about her son's absence the previous night.
"Daisuke Niwa where on earth have you been? I was up all night worried sick about you, I thought something had happened!"
"I'm sorry mom, something came up…and well the storm knocked the power out so I couldn't call. And I knew you wouldn't want me walking home in the rain." Daisuke explained to his hysterical mother.
"Well at least you're home and safe. Now…where is the Eternal Spirit?"
"…oh…no…" It suddenly occurred to Daisuke that in his rush to leave Satoshi's house he had forgotten the necklace. "…I left it…"
"At the museum?"
"No…" He hung his head, he didn't exactly want to tell her he had stayed the night with Satoshi Hiwatari, the very boy was aiming to capture Dark. "I left it at Hiwatari's house."
" Dai, its your responsibility to get us those art pieces. Now I'm sorry to say this but you have to go back and get it. "
"But mom! I just got home." Daisuke protested.
"Daisuke, we have to set the sprit in that necklace free or they will forever be trapped in there." Daisuke nodded, understanding his mother's point. It was his job being a part of the Niwa family to steal the art so his mother and grandfather could seal it. "You can go get something to eat and change your clothes before you go." He nodded and headed for the kitchen getting a quick meal. He was not looking forward to having to face Hiwatari after what he had said to him.
(Don't let that creep get to you. Just break into the house get the necklace and leave, you won't even have to talk to him.)
"Dark! I couldn't do that."
(Why not?)
"I just don't want to do it." Daisuke mentally told the thief as he opened up the refrigerator to find something to eat. "I don't understand what your problem is with Hiwatari."
(Um, have you forgotten that he shares his body with Krad?) Dark asked.
"I'm not talking about Krad, I'm talking about Hiwatari himself."
(He's also been trying to capture me every time we go to steal something.)
"I get along with him just fine." Daisuke replied.
(yeah you two sure were getting along last night. Even went the extra mile.)
"Dark!" Daisuke had, had enough with Dark's snide comments about what had happened. "It was you wasn't it?"
(What do you mean?)
"You're the one that made me yell at Satoshi!" He exclaimed, finally understanding the uncomfortable feeling. It wasn't Satoshi, it had been Dark's reaction to the situation. "Why did you do that?"
(Daisuke, its not like I did it on purpose. You may like that creepy bastard but I am not comfortable with him.) Before Daisuke could reply the doorbell rang, his mother was busy so he went to answer the door. Grabbing the handle he opened the door and to his surprise standing there was Satoshi Hiwatari. Without a single word Satoshi lifted his hand let the necklace of The Eternal Spirit dangle from it's chain in front of Daisuke.
"You forgot something."
