Monday came; Daisuke and Satoshi's weekend together went by quickly. Daisuke packed up his school things in a hurry, eager to get to school and see Satoshi again. "Why in such a hurry, Dai, sweetie, school doesn't start for a half an hour." Emiko asked.
"Oh, well Riku, Risa, and I decided to meet each other early so we have time to talk for a while before school started." Daisuke lied.
"Oh, ok then Daisuke, you have fun." Emiko waved goodbye to Daisuke who waved back.
Satoshi was standing outside the school gates. He ran up to him. "How was the rest of your day yesterday, Daisuke?" Satoshi asked, giving Daisuke a kiss.
"It was okay, but I was just wanting to go back to school to see you, Satoshi." Daisuke said.
"I see I've been wanting to see you too." Satoshi said.
Daisuke saw Riku and Risa drive up. He waved at them. Satoshi heaved a sigh of annoyance, knowing with Riku and Risa around, they'd never get any time alone. "Hey, Daisuke how was your day with Satoshi?' Riku asked.
"It was very nice, I liked it." Daisuke explained.
"Did you guys do anything?" Risa giggled.
"Like I said before, what Daisuke and I do together is strictly our business." Satoshi said. Riku and Risa giggled.
"You two are hopeless." Daisuke sighed.
"Well you two have the whole day together, since we only have one class together, and that's Health, our first period class." Riku said.
"I heard we start the Sex Ed unit in a month, wouldn't that be nice, you two can get some ideas!" Risa giggled.
"Is that all you think about, Risa?" Daisuke asked. She laughed again.
"Let's not worry about it, Daisuke, may I see you a minute?" Satoshi asked.
"Um, sure, Satoshi, I'll be right back." Daisuke followed Satoshi to behind one of the school buildings. "What is it, Satoshi?"
"I just wanted to get away from those two; we were never going to get any privacy with those two asking us all those questions." Satoshi growled.
"They were just playing, Satoshi." Daisuke said.
"I know, it's just when people act like that around me, it gets a little aggravating!" Satoshi said.
"Oh, I see Satoshi, but we have the entire day to ourselves." Daisuke said.
"Not exactly, remember all those girls follow me around, and the only time we might get some time alone is now, lunch, and after school." Satoshi explained.
"Ok, Satoshi." Daisuke sighed. Satoshi brought his hand to Daisuke's cheek. He bent down and gave him another passionate kiss, like the one he gave Daisuke at his house. Daisuke brought his arms up and wrapped them around Satoshi's neck. Satoshi ran his fingers through Daisuke's hair. They stood there for several minutes. Daisuke broke the kiss this time, as the bell rang to get to first period. They joined back with Riku and Risa in Health class.
The bell rang again. Daisuke, Satoshi, Riku, and Risa sat at their table together. The teacher was giving a very boring lecture about how drugs affected the brain and what not. Daisuke put his head on the desk, as did many other people, trying not to fall asleep. Risa was passing a note to one of her friends and Riku was watching a fly buzz around an apple on the teacher's desk. Satoshi was just sitting there, reading.
Somehow, an hour passed, Daisuke stood up stretching and yawning. Satoshi put his book away. Riku and Risa said goodbye to Daisuke and Satoshi, since their only class together was Health. Daisuke and Satoshi walked together to their art class. Daisuke brought out his painting he was working on. It was a painting of Freedert and her other half, the Toki no Byoshin. He was almost finished with it, but he wanted to add a little more color to it.
"That's very pretty, Daisuke, I like it." Satoshi said.
"Oh, thank you, Satoshi!" Daisuke smiled.
Satoshi smiled back and sat down next to Daisuke. He started painting on his canvas. Satoshi's was a beautiful landscape. In the picture were mountains, a lake and a beautiful sunset that made the picture look so realistic. "Wow, Satoshi, that's a very beautiful picture, I like it! I could never do anything like that." Daisuke said.
"Heh, it's nothing. I'm a Hikari; art is my specialty, Daisuke." Satoshi said.
"One day, I would like to make a portrait of you. Satoshi." Daisuke said.
"That would be nice." Satoshi smiled. "I should make one of you too."
The day went by fast, to Daisuke and Satoshi's disappointment. They decided to walk home together. "You know, now that Daisuke and Satoshi are together, it seems that Daisuke doesn't want to be with us." Riku said.
"I know what you mean." Risa agreed.
"I think it's because we pry too much, I think we should stop doing that." Riku said.
"Mm, hmm." Risa nodded.
"Oh welcome home, Dai…" Emiko stared at Satoshi. "What is he doing here?"
"Mom, I've told you over and over, he's my friend whether you like it or not!" Daisuke growled.
"Now, now, Emiko, let's go into the kitchen." Kosuke said, bringing his wife away from Satoshi.
"You're father doesn't seem to mind." Satoshi said.
"My father wasn't born into the Niwa family, so he might understand us a little bit better than mom would." Daisuke explained.
"Mm, I see. Well Daisuke, I should be going, I have work to do." Satoshi gave Daisuke a quick kiss on the cheek and left.
Daisuke went into the living room. He grandpa was reading a newspaper. Dark was flipping through the channels, and his mom and dad were in the kitchen arguing. Daisuke sighed and went upstairs to do his homework.
Hours passed. His homework took forever! He managed to complete it. Daisuke walked back into his room after his shower. His phone rang. Daisuke picked it up. "Hello?"
"Daisuke?" it was Satoshi.
"Hi Satoshi, what's up?" Daisuke asked.
"Nothing, I-I just wondered if you would like to go on a date tomorrow night, or are you doing something?"
"Oh, no, I'm free, I'd love to!"
"Ok, good, is it ok if you come home with me tomorrow then?"
"Of course, Satoshi."
"What about your mother?"
"I'll have my dad deal with her."
"Ok, well then, see you tomorrow."
"Uh huh, bye!" Daisuke hung up.
"Going somewhere tomorrow, Daisuke?" Kosuke asked.
"Oh, dad! Yeah, I'm going to hang with Satoshi." Daisuke said.
"That's good that you two are finally friends." Kosuke said.
"Uh huh, I'm happy."
"If there's anything you want to tell me, feel free, I won't tell."
"Um, well, no not really."
"Mm, ok Daisuke, when you're ready to, tell me ok?"
"Ok, Dad."
The next day, Daisuke and Satoshi drove home in Satoshi's car together. Kosuke told Emiko that Daisuke and Satoshi were going to study together, and that he'd be home late. Emiko didn't like the idea, but Kosuke convinced her. Satoshi took Daisuke to a quiet secluded place where they could be alone. "This place is lovely." Daisuke said.
"Yes, Krad found it a while back, he always come here to be alone sometimes." Satoshi explained.
Daisuke took a bite of the food Satoshi brought with them. "This is good, you hired really good cooks."
"No, that's Krad's cooking, the cooks have the week off."
"If Krad can cook so well, why do you have cooks?"
"Krad is not always home until late, so he has the cooks prepare dinner for me."
"Oh, I see." Daisuke and Satoshi sat there. Daisuke laid his head on Satoshi's shoulder.
"It's a nice night." Satoshi said.
"Mmm."
Their night drew on and soon it was ten o'clock when Satoshi arrived at Daisuke's house. "Well, I guess I should go then." Daisuke said, getting ready to get out of the car.
"Wait a minute." Satoshi grabbed Daisuke's arm. "A goodbye kiss?"
"Ok." Daisuke moved over and gave Satoshi a kiss. Satoshi's eyes widened as he looked through the window. Dark was watching with mouth wide open. Daisuke looked over to see Dark standing there. He gasped. Dark backed up and ran back into the house. "I-I'm in trouble now!"
"I'm sorry, Daisuke, I shouldn't have asked you for a kiss." Satoshi said.
"Well I guess our plan will be put into action." Daisuke said. Daisuke smiled weakly and got out of the car. "I'll see you later, Satoshi." Daisuke went inside the house, Emiko was furious.
"No, I will not let you be with a Hikari, let alone a male one!" Emiko exclaimed.
"Emiko, calm down!" Kosuke said.
"No, you listen to me mister!" she scolded Daisuke. "You are never allowed to see Satoshi again!"
"I can't believe you! And you call yourself my mother!" Daisuke was angry now. He stormed off into his room.
"The nerve!"
"He's right, you know, Emiko." Kosuke said. "If you truly loved and accepted Daisuke, you wouldn't care if he loved a male Hikari."
"It's so not fair! Dark gets to go out with anybody he likes, what makes me so different?" Daisuke paced his room.
"Kyu?" Wiz looked up at Daisuke.
"It's ok, Wiz, it's not your fault." Daisuke picked up the little white rabbit. "I guess I have no choice, do I, Wiz?"
"Kyu?" Wiz cocked his head to the side.
"I'll take you with me, Wiz." Daisuke set him down on his bed. He packed up his clothes and such in a suit case. Daisuke jumped out the window and ran towards Satoshi's house.
Satoshi was already packed, for he knew what was going to happen. "You ready?" Satoshi opened the door before he even knocked on it. "Krad got us tickets. We're going to Kyoto."
"We're going to live there?" Satoshi nodded.
"You two hurry up, the plane leaves in thirty minutes." Krad said. Daisuke and Satoshi hopped into the car. Krad drove them to the air port with fifteen minutes to go. "You two have a nice time together, remember, you can always come back if you want to. You can live at the mansion, Daisuke."
"I know, Krad, but we'll just try this out for now." Daisuke said. They got out of the car.
"Goodbye, Satoshi, Daisuke, I hope you two have a nice life. You won't forget to call me right?" Krad asked. They nodded. Krad smiled and waved goodbye. He drove off.
"Plane for Kyoto leaving it five minutes."
"Come on Daisuke, let's go." Satoshi, Daisuke, and Wiz boarded the plane and headed off towards Kyoto.
Kosuke, Emiko, and Daiky entered Daisuke's empty room. "Well Emiko, I hope you're happy." Kosuke frowned a left Emiko who started to cry into Daiky's arms.
