AuthorsNote: For those of you familiar with my two other stories; I am back as promised! I have been working these past few weeks on some new ideas and I will try to get them up as soon as I can. I have received comments in the past that my chapters are too short so I am trying to make them longer; but that means you will have to wait twice as long for me to post them, however finals are coming up and I have a job so I can't write as much as I would like too.With that said: PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:

1: This story is a Yaoi (guy/guy relationships) if you don't like it don't read it.

2: Krad and Dark will not be appearing much; this is mostly about Daisuke and Satoshi.

3: Graphic content (aka Lemon)is contained in later chapters; you have been warned!

4: I do not own D.N.Angel (if I did Dai and Sato would do naughty things with each other ) Enjoy!

Daisuke Niwa sat in his classroom intensely watching the seconds tick by on the clock; there were only five more minutes left in class and he was anxious to leave. He had made plans for that night and wanted to see them through; he was unsure why he was so excited, it didn't seem to be a big deal. Well at least to other people it wouldn't; but he felt a joy inside that was unexplainable at that moment. He and Riku had broken up a few months ago; there just wasn't that spark that had been between them when they were 14, now two years later 16 years old they had decided to stop pretending and move on. They still remained close friends; Risa as well, currently Daisuke was still single, he hadn't met anyone that he was particularly attracted too.

Both Risa and Riku had tried numerous times to set him up on dates but time and time again it just didn't work out. Riku began to complain that Daisuke was too picky, while Risa defended that he was just particular like herself. They had been discussing that very subject that day during their lunch period, that was when Satoshi had asked to speak with Daisuke.

With the two years Satoshi had matured physically; he was much taller than before nearly 6 foot and his face wasn't as boyish and had a more handsomeness to it rather than cuteness. Being the height he was he was also lean and fit; from still working as a police commander attempting to capture Dark. His hair was the same; the length and style, always hanging down over his forehead and a few strands over his deep blue eyes.

Daisuke was still boyish in his looks; he had grown a few inches and looked a little more matured but he was still the small clumsy redhead that he had always been. His and Satoshi's friendship had grown through the years; as much as it could. Satoshi still harbored Krad who was also after Dark and Daisuke as well, so Daisuke's mother had made sure that he didn't spend much time with him. However at school was a different situation; that was the only place they were allowed to talk to each other.

Satoshi had led Daisuke away from the Harada's saying that he needed to speak with him privately for a moment. When they were alone Satoshi had asked Daisuke if he wanted to stay the night at his house that day. Daisuke was unsure at first; he had wanted to say yes but the thought of what his mother would say made him think otherwise, he mentioned his dilemma and Satoshi surprised him with an answer. He simply said to call her and ask to go over to Takishe's house. The redhead hadn't exactly liked the idea of lying but this was the first time Satoshi had invited someone over for other than business.

Daisuke had called and lied to his mother; now he waited anxiously for the bell to ring. The clock hit 2:45 and he jumped out of his seat as the bell rang, he walked to his locker, gathered his belongings for the weekend and left to meet Satoshi out front. Dark had been particularly quiet that day; it had been a rough night last night so Daisuke assumed he was resting up from the ordeal. They had run into Krad instead of Satoshi and that never was a good thing.

"Daisuke over here." Satoshi called; they had decided they were close enough to be on a first name basis.

"Hey Satoshi…how was 7th hour?" Daisuke asked making small talk as they headed towards where Satoshi's Limo was waiting.

"Wasn't bad…I already know all that stuff though…how was yours?"

"Boring! I hate having Algebra at the end of the day." Daisuke complained. "I'm no good at it!"

"It just takes practice."

"Easy for you to say; you already graduated. You're a genius!"

"I wouldn't say genius Daisuke…I just remember information." They got to the black limo, tossed in their school bags and got in.

"You remember it because your smart." Daisuke continued. "And you're a great artist."

"Hey you are too!"

"All I can do is stupid landscapes…you can draw people and animals…and…you're just so talented."

"It's called being a Hikari; I see something once I can recreate it in a painting, talent has nothing to do with it, it's just my genes." Satoshi explained. "You are the only artist in the whole Niwa family, you have to be proud of that."

"…yeah I guess…" Daisuke shrugged. "Oh well; anyway what did you want me to come over for?"

"Isn't that what friends do? Spend time with each other?" Satoshi asked.

"well yeah…I meant did you have a specific idea of what you wanted to do or just hang out?"

Satoshi shrugged. "Hang out I guess."

"Ok that's cool!" The limo pulled up to Satoshi's apartment complex; the two boys got out and headed for the door. Satoshi pulled out his key and unlocked the door; pushing it open they entered, dropping their bags on the floor by the entrance.

"I haven't been here in awhile." Daisuke said looking around. "Looks the same."

"Well I don't do much here…I'm usually at the station working on stuff." Daisuke nodded. He went into the living room where there was a flat screen TV a brand new DVD player, surround sound speakers and subwoofer.

"WOW! Satoshi when did you get all this?" There was a large comfortable looking couch and a tidy coffee table in front of it. On the left side of the TV was a wooden cabinet. Satoshi walked in leisurely.

"My step dad…birthday, and Christmas presents for the past two years. I don't use them much."

"You have any movies?" Daisuke asked excitedly, Satoshi pointed to the cabinet. The redhead ran over and opened it; inside was a massive collection of alphabetically sorted DVDs.

"Oh can we watch a movie later tonight!"

Satoshi smiled, it was cute how excited Daisuke was. "Yeah sure…if you want. We could also order a pizza if you'd like." He suggested.

"Yeah Yeah! That sounds great!" Daisuke began to pick through the movies of what he wanted to watch that night.

Later on Satoshi decided to help Daisuke with his Algebra homework so he wouldn't have to worry about it during his weekend. He had explained it slowly, and easily and in steps so he could better understand it. He ended up doing over half the problems before it finally clicked in Daisuke's head.

"Oh! You divide!" He exclaimed as it finally dawned on him; he snatched the paper from Satoshi and finished he next problem with no errors.

"You got it Daisuke."

He finished them off; happy that he had finally understood it. "Thanks for explaining it!"

"No problem." The door bell rang. "That must be the pizza…how about you get the movie ready and I'll go pay for it."

"Alright." Daisuke closed up his book and stuck it in his bag. Satoshi stood up and went to answer the door; sure enough it was the pizza boy, a rather cute pizza boy. Satoshi blushed slightly when he set his eyes upon him; the boy handed over the pizza and Satoshi gave him the money, with a rather large tip.

"Oh thanks man have a good night!"

"…you…too…" Satoshi shut the door and set the pizza down in his kitchen.

"Was that him Satoshi?" Daisuke called from the living room.

"…yeah." Satoshi replied, then sighed. He wondered if he would be able to go through with his original intention for that night. Satoshi had admitted to himself that he was gay, a homosexual a few years ago. He hated having to keep it hidden like a dirty secret that he was ashamed of, like his secret about harboring Krad. He had wanted to tell Daisuke for some time now; mainly because he had a crush on the redhead since he met him. Daisuke was his one and only friend and he hated having to keep a secret about his sexuality. He set down two plates and opened the box; grabbing a single slice of pepperoni pizza and setting it on the plate. Satoshi wasn't fond of greasy foods; or mass quantities.

Daisuke came in and piled on three slices. "Wow this sure looks good!" Satoshi nodded absent mindedly. "So you ready for the movie?"

"Yeah sure." Satoshi followed Daisuke into the living room and sat down on the couch; Daisuke hit play on the remote and began to munch on his pizza.

"So what movie did you chose?" Satoshi asked.

"…The Ring, I've never seen it."

"Isn't that a little scary for you?"

"No…I can handle it." Daisuke said confidently.

"If you say so."

-few hours later-

Daisuke sat in the corner of the couch his knees pulled up to his chest and his eyes wide and watching the TV screen. Satoshi looked over at him and smirked; it was apparent he was scared, but Daisuke wouldn't admit it. He had asked about five times already if he wanted to turn it off; but each time Daisuke replied with a firm "no." So Satoshi had finally given up; if Daisuke wanted to sit through it then he could suffer the consequences. The movie ended and the credits began to roll; Satoshi took that opportunity to grab the remote and shut off the movie.

"You ok?"

"Yeah." The phone rang suddenly; making Daisuke jump. Satoshi got up to go answer the phone, Daisuke jumped up and stopped him. "What are you doing?"

"Answering the phone…why?" Satoshi asked. He looked at Daisuke's frightened face. "Oh…Daisuke it's only a movie…it's not real." He picked up the phone receiver.

"NO!" Daisuke shouted, it was too late, Satoshi answered.

"Hello?" Daisuke stood still waiting for Satoshi to acknowledge whoever was on the other end. He watched his blue eyes widen as if in fear and looked towards him. He shakily handed the phone over to Daisuke; who refused to take it at first, but Satoshi pressed. The redhead carefully took it into his hands and held it up to his ear terrified of what he may hear on the other end.

"…H…H….Hell…o?" He waited. "…Hi mom…" He sighed and glared at Satoshi who was trying to stifle a laugh. "Who? Oh that was…uh….Takeshi's…cousin! Yeah he was playing a joke on me." Satoshi leaned against the wall listening. "Yes I know…I'll see you tomorrow…bye." He hung up and stared at Satoshi.

"That wasn't funny!" Daisuke pouted.

Satoshi smiled. "You should have seen the look on your face!" He teased.

"I'm going to get you back for that!"

"I'd love to see you try…" The blunette taunted.

"Oh really?"

"Yes really." Daisuke made a grab for Satoshi's arm but the boy moved just in time and made a break out of the room; Daisuke turned and followed him, Satoshi dashed up the stairs with the redhead close behind.

"You're never going to catch me Daisuke!" He called back; he went to hide in his room but Daisuke caught and tackled him, the two boys fell on the bed

"Never going to catch you eh?" Daisuke panted; trying to pin the other down, but Satoshi squirmed around and managed to grab his arms and push him up and use his weight to push him down. Daisuke was then flat on his back Satoshi on top and successfully pinning him down.

"…That's what I said." He smirked triumphantly. "Going to admit it yet?" Daisuke shook his head. "No?" The boy below him nodded. "What you can't speak now?" Daisuke nodded. "…Hmm how to fix this…" Satoshi mused. "I know…" He started to tickle Daisuke's sides causing the boy to burst out laughing and squirm around.

"Ok, Ok! You win you win!" Daisuke managed to say through his laughter; Satoshi finally got off the smaller boy and laid on his back laughing as well. They finally calmed down after a few minutes. Daisuke smiled at Satoshi; he had never known that he was so playful, Satoshi had never shown this side of himself before, it was a good sign that maybe he was finally breaking out of his shell. "I'm glad you invited me over Satoshi."

"I'm happy you've enjoyed it here." Satoshi wondered if perhaps now was a good time to tell Daisuke his little secret; but he worried that maybe it would scare off the redhead rather than getting him closer.

"Daisuke…" He began and noticed the boy yawing. "…I uh…I mean…are you tired?" He changed his mind yet again; he had ruined so many opportune moments.

"Yeah…a little." Satoshi got out of bed and went to his closet; he pulled out a T shirt and tossed it to Daisuke. "you can borrow that since you don't have anything else."

"Thanks."

"I'll show you to your room." Daisuke got off the bed and followed Satoshi down the hall to a small guest bedroom. "Is there a specific time you need to be home tomorrow?"

"Um…about 3:00."

"Alright; I'll wake you tomorrow at a decent time…"

"O..O..K…" Daisuke looked around the room a bit uneasily.

"…Did that movie really scare you that much?" Satoshi asked.

"No! I'm fine!" Daisuke defended. "…Goodnight Satoshi."

He smiled. "Goodnight…if you need anything; just come to my room." He shut the door and went to his own room. Daisuke took off his pants and shirt and slipped on the one Satoshi had given him. It smelled like Satoshi; which was a bit comforting for Daisuke, he loved the way Satoshi smelled. Always a clean indescribable smell; he wondered what cologne he wore because whatever it was he could smell it on that specific shirt. He shut off the light and crawled into bed the darkness around him was so thick he could barely see a thing.

His eyes began to adjust to the dim light; but his imagination began to get the better of him, he looked around and saw shadows that seemed to be in the shape of people standing in the room. He closed his eyes and turned on his side so he was facing the wall. But his mind kept wheeling out more images of what may be going on behind his back. He saw her…the girl from the movie in her long white dress all covered in sludge from the well; her pale yet green and blue grimy rotten skin, her hand reaching out to him; the fingernails torn off from her clawing at the walls. The long black hair hanging down over her dead face; swaying as she walks closer and closer. Daisuke was afraid to look behind him; frightened that if he did he would see her and her milky pale dead eyes staring at him; the blue veins apparent under her skin. Daisuke reached for the lamp and turned it on. He wouldn't be able to take this; he got out of bed and left the room. Cautiously he made his way down the dark hallway to Satoshi's room.

"…S…Sa…to…shi?" He called opening the door. Satoshi sat up in bed; he was shirtless and wearing just a pair of boxers.

"Daisuke? You ok?" He asked.

"…I…uh…well…I think since you know I'm staying over…friends usually share the same room when they…sleep over…"

Satoshi smiled at Daisuke's excuse for wanting to sleep in his room. He knew he was scared but wasn't going to let him know that he knew. "Alright…come on then..." Daisuke smiled happily and jumped into the bed; and snuggled under the warm blankets.

"Thanks Satoshi!"

"No problem Daisuke." He laid down and tried to relax. Daisuke was so close to him; he wanted to touch him, hold him, embrace him. But he held back; knowing that such a come on would frighten the boy. Instead he turned on his side and closed his eyes to fall asleep. Daisuke was still feeling a bit uneasy; he scooted closer to Satoshi, close enough to feel the heat emanating from his body. The bluenette was facing him; his eyes were closed and was breathing evenly.

Daisuke supposed he had fallen asleep. Even though it was dark he could see the fine details of Satoshi's handsome face. The way the strands of hair fell over his forehead; it gave him a sexy appealing look, Daisuke imagined him just like that; shirtless and his hair tussled only awake and looking at him with a somewhat hungry, lustful look. Daisuke shivered; the thought gave him pleasurable goose bumps. What am I thinking! He wondered. I shouldn't think of him like that…I mean…Yeah Satoshi is really good looking! Who am I kidding…he's the most attractive guy in our school;…but…why do I have these sudden feelings. Daisuke thought. He hadn't dated a girl in a long while; not since he and Riku broke up, since then he hadn't even been attracted to any girls. I'm not…or am I? I do enjoy Satoshi's company; and we get along really well…do I…have a crush on him? He gently started playing with a strand of Satoshi's hair. Maybe I do…I was really excited to becoming over here. It felt almost the same as...the times Riku and I were still dating; and would go out together. He sighed. But…I've never been attracted to another guy before. He closed his eyes hoping to sleep on it. Maybe…time will tell… He laid there in bed with Satoshi and soon fell asleep.
