Hello all! Sorry for the long wait. I was having a bit of writers block. Okay: does anyone think it's REALLY a coincidence that red and blue make purple? I just realized that the other day… heehee

Also, THANK YOU to everyone who reviewed! Reviews really mean a lot to me. So here's the 4th chapter! Enjoy!

Chapter 4

That night, as Daisuke lay in bed, he couldn't sleep. Instead he kept replaying that afternoon in his mind. He sighed and rolled over.

If I'm gonna get any sleep tonight I need to stop--

plink

Huh? What was that?

plink plink

plink!

Daisuke walked over and opened the window. Standing below in the yard was Satoshi. The familiar blush spread down his body. Satoshi picked up another pebble to throw, then saw Daisuke at the window.

"I need to talk to you," he called softly.

"Okay. I'll be down in a minute."

Daisuke threw on some jeans and a t-shirt and headed downstairs. He tiptoed past his mom's room to be sure not to wake her up. Slipping his shoes on, he went out into the front yard, where Satoshi was waiting.

"Hi…" Daisuke started, not knowing what to say.

"I…wanted to…talk…about today" Satoshi said, looking at the ground.

Wait a sec… Is he blushing?

Of course he's blushing, are you really that stupid? Haven't you figured it out yet?

What? Figured what out?

Dark sighed.

Isn't it obvious! He likes you as much as you like him! I see all those dreams you have about him!

Hey! I--

"Daisuke? Are you okay?" asked Satoshi, pulling him out of his conversation with Dark.

"Oh, yeah. Fine… Why don't we go somewhere else to talk?" Daisuke said, glancing up at his mom's window.

"Well…" Satoshi started, seeming more nervous than ever, "we could go to my apartment"

Daisuke said nothing, he was too stunned. But he soon recovered and said, "Sure! Why not?"

See? Told ya he likes you.

Maybe he's just being friendly…?

Riiiiight. He almost kissed you today because he wants to be friendly

Daisuke gasped and blushed at the memory. Satoshi shot him a look but he didn't see it. He was too deep in his talk with Dark.

Do you really think he…?

YES! Dark broke in.

"We're here." Satoshi said. Daisuke looked up at the building in front of him. Just a regular apartment building. Did he expect Satoshi to live anywhere special?

When they got into the apartment, Daisuke noticed that it was very plain. Not much furniture and very little color. The living room was combined with a small kitchen area and to his left, he could see a bedroom. A single bed and a small desk were all it contained.

Satoshi sat down on the sofa and motioned for Daisuke to do the same.

"So, you wanted to talk…?" Daisuke said, thinking about what Dark had said earlier.

Could he really…?

"Yes, about today…" Satoshi said hesitantly, "What… did it mean?"

"Well… I guess you know as well as I do…" Daisuke trailed off. He wasn't really sure how to answer. As he sat staring into Satoshi's eyes, he felt himself slipping back into his daydreams.

What? Daisuke! How can you be daydreaming at a time like this!

Ignoring Dark, Daisuke dropped deeper away from reality.

He moved his hand to cover Satoshi's. The other boy jumped and looked into Daisuke's eyes. Daisuke started to say something but before he could even finish his word they were locked in a kiss. At first Daisuke was too surprised to do anything but then he relaxed and leaned closer to Satoshi. He reached up to put his arms around Satoshi's neck as Satoshi slid his own arm around Daisuke's hips.

This feels too real to be a daydream… Daisuke thought absently

Dark sighed

That's because it's not.

WHAT!

That shocked Daisuke out of his semi-daydreaming state and outof the kiss. He jumped up off the sofa. Immediately, a blush filled Satoshi's face. "I-I'm sorry! I shouldn't have…"

"No." Daisuke cut him off, recovering and sinking down to sit next to him again, "Don't apologize."

With that, he put his arms around the other boy and brought their lips together again. This time though, the kiss went deeper. Growing bolder, Satoshi's tongue ran quickly along his lips as if asking for more. Right away, he opened his mouth and let Satoshi take control of the situation. While they were kissing, Daisuke's hands had traveled to the hem of Satoshi's shirt and pulled it off over his head. He heard Satoshi's muffled moan as he ran his hands over the smooth, soft skin of his chest and abs.

Pinch me. He thought, I must be dreaming.

But he wasn't. After what seemed like hours their kisses slowed and Daisuke felt himself getting very sleepy. He hadn't been sleeping well the past few days because of the dreams and the fact that he couldn't sleep after waking up from one. He let his muscles relax and his head slipped down into Satoshi's lap and he promptly fell asleep. He dreamed that he was being carried and put into a bed. Someone climbed in with him and pulled the blankets up. He cuddled up to this warm pillow as it curled around him and fell back into a deep sleep.

Daisuke awoke in the morning to the sun coming in through the window and birds chirping outside. He lifted his head off of Satoshi's chest, looked around and remembered where he was.

Wait…sun? That means sunrise! Crap! I'll be in so much trouble if mom finds out I've been gone all night!

In his panic, Daisuke woke up Satoshi who sat up with a smile, until he saw the look of fear in Daisuke's eyes.

"What is it?" he asked, "What's wrong?"

"I have to get home!"

A look of confusion crossed Satoshi's face, but then his eyes widened as he came to the same realization as Daisuke. Both boys jumped out of the bed and Daisuke tried to straighten his clothes and fix his hair while Satoshi tried to find a shirt to wear. Hey were both quiet as they hurried back to Daisuke's house.

When they got there, Daisuke looked up at the windows. It was hard to see with the glare from the rising sun but he didn't think he saw anyone moving inside.

He turned to Satoshi. "I guess I have to go." he said. But before he left, he leaned forward and touched his lips to Satoshi's once more. He was about to pull away but Satoshi put a strong arm around his waist and pulled him closer for another few seconds before letting him go.

"Goodbye" Satoshi said with a small smile as he turned to walk back home.

As Daisuke ran up to the door to sneak in, his mom turned away from her window and crawled back into bed for another few minutes, not wanting to let Daisuke know she had seen what just happened.
