Krad walked around the hall corner and into the bathroom. "Satoshi? You in here?"

He peered in the toilette and stared closely, "Hmmm…Nope not in here."

Dark passed the bathroom and up the stairs to Daisuke's room. "Satoshi? Are you in here?" Dark carefully examined the whole room. He checked under the bed, in the closet, behind Daisuke's clothes, EVERYWHERE! Dark was getting impatient. "Satoshi, if you're in here, COME OUT RIGHT NOW!"

………………..

No answer. All Dark heard was Wiz yawn and move around in the bed. Dark let out a long sigh and turned on his heel and left the room. Emiko was in the kitchen trying to talk to Towa. "Miss. Towa? Are you ok?"

"I never knew…"

"Knew what, Towa?"

"Satoshi…has feelings for me."

"Yeah…"

"You knew?"

"Everyone knew."

"WHAT! NO ONE TOLD ME!"

"Satoshi asked us not to tell you…he wanted to tell you on his own."

Emiko stared at Towa's blushing face and smiled slightly. "Towa it's alright to have someone love you…you know, just as long as it's not a child molester." Emiko's voice was playful and comforting to Towa. Towa smiled, "Thanks for cheering me up Emiko, ma'am."

"No problem, Miss. Towa."

They exchanged smiles and got up off the floor. "I have to find Satoshi!" Towa ran down the hall and into all the rooms. Dark came stomping down the stairs, annoyed at the fact that Satoshi was unable to find. I'm the GREAT PHANTOM THEIF! And I can't even find a gender confused person hiding in my house…there's something wrong with that! Dark's annoyed expression grew. He plopped down on the couch and threw his arms up on the head rest and crossed his legs. "I give up!"

Krad came waltzing out of the bathroom with a news paper in hand. Dark glared at him. "We already checked in there, why were you-?"

"I feel SOOO much better now!"

"…Why…?"

"Oh I just took a…I mean, I had to tinkle. Tee hee."

"You disgust me…even if you're a hot chick…you're still Krad…"

"So did you find Satoshi-sama?"

"Nope…were you in there the whole time?"

"Yep."

"It doesn't take THAT long to pee, Krad."

"Oh, I took a shower too…"

"…"

"What?"

Dark stared awkwardly at Krad. "Why did you take a shower?"

"I felt dirty, that's why!"

Dark sighed and leaned his head back and closed his eyes. "You mean to tell me, that while I was trying to find Satoshi, who supposedly you're worried about, you were bathing and taking a piss?"

"Well if you put it that way, it just sounds mean!"

"IT IS MEAN!"

"I WAS DIRTY! And besides, I'm sure Satoshi is just fine."

Towa opened a closet in her room and pulled back the clothes, Satoshi was sitting there with his face buried in his knees. "Satoshi!" Towa fell to her knees and hugged him. Satoshi looked at her with almost no expression. "I was worried about you, we all were!"

Satoshi continued to stare. Towa noticed that his eyes were slightly shimmered with wetness. "A-are you crying?"

"No, just embarrassed."

"Why are you embarrassed?"

"…you know why."

"Oh, cause of what you said?"

"Yeah…"

"Ha-ha, Satoshi you can be silly at times you know?"

Satoshi stared at her confused. "What's that supposed mean?"

"You're getting all worked up over something so small; I'm flattered that you think of me that way. In fact, I kind of like you too."

"You…do?"

"Yup!" Towa stood up and grabbed Satoshi's had, helping him up and the walked down the hall together. Satoshi looked at her a bit confused, Is she just messing with me, or did she mean that? "I found him!"

Dark and Krad stared at him with a bit of an annoyed expression mixed with relief. "'Bout time…" mumbled Krad.

"Where the heck was he?" said Dark in a tense voice.

"In my closet."

Dark and Krad looked at Towa. Dark never thought of looking in her room. Krad had other thoughts; I bet he was raiding her panty drawers! And trying on her bras! Satoshi, you sly fox! He simply smirked. Satoshi glared at Krad, "What's that smirk for Krad?"

"Oh, nothing."

Satoshi ignored him and looked over at Dark and Emiko. "I'm sorry for scaring you all."

Emiko smiled, "Don't worry about it Satoshi. Kosuke should be home any minute now."

Satoshi smiled for the first time in what seemed like forever. Towa clapped her hands together playfully, "YAY! Now Satoshi and Krad can be boys again!"

Krad crossed his legs, "Who ever said I wanted to be a guy again?"

Dark looked at him with an odd expression. "What do you mean, Krad?"

"I look GREAT as a woman!"

"You looked fine as a dude, too, Krad."

"But I like being a girl!"

Dark tried not to laugh. He didn't think he could ever stand being a girl. "Krad, you're crazy go nuts."

"Thank you."

"That wasn't a compliment."

Krad simply smirked. Dark then had a thought hit him; is Krad…GAY? Oh dear lord…oh GAW- what if he likes me! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! Stay cool, Dark, don't lose your cool!
