-awake-

Daisuke yawned and stretched in bed; he didn't really notice the body by him that was holding him. Hmm…I must have dozed off on the couch I wonder what time it is. He opened his eyes and realized he was no longer in his room; there was a noise and he realized someone was holding him, looking over and saw Satoshi laying next to him.

"What the?" He exclaimed while sitting up and looking around the room. "How…what…when…?" Satoshi sat up slowly and blinked hazily; he was in his usual sleepy daze.

"Daaark! What happened? Why am I here?" Daisuke called to the thief.

(…Oohh my…) Dark sighed and shook his head; despite the wicked smile on his face. (You don't remember?) He questioned.

"Uh..no…last I knew I was in my room on the couch…" He gasped and cupped his hands over his mouth in horror; then his eyes narrowed. "…Dark…what did you do?" He asked accusingly.

(Me? What are you implying? That I would? EEEWWWWW!) Dark felt disgusted that Daisuke would even think he would do such a thing as sleep with Satoshi while he was asleep.

"Well…what am I supposed to think?.." He asked.

"…Daisuke?..." A quiet voice asked. Daisuke looked over at Satoshi who apparently was over his little daze.

"Satoshi?...Um…why am…I here?" He asked, knowing that Satoshi could give him a better answer.

"…you came by don't you remember?" He asked, Daisuke shook his head. "You knocked on my door and as soon as I opened it you jumped on me and started kissing me and trying to get me to come upstairs with you and…well…we did…" Daisuke's eyes grew wide.

"TOWA!" he exclaimed immediately.

"What?" Satoshi was feeling very confused.

Daisuke laid back down on the bed and sighed. "She made me these cookies that she called her Love cookies and made me eat them…she said they made people go crazy for their lovers…"

"…oh…" Satoshi smirked. "So that explains it…"

"Explains what?"

"Your forwardness." He laid back down on his side by Daisuke. "So you don't remember a thing?"

"…It's…hazy but it's…coming back to me…" He smiled at Satoshi reassuringly, and to the memories that were springing back into his mind. "…wow…" he murmured after a few silent minutes.

"It all come back?" Satoshi asked with a raised eyebrow.

"…heh…heh…yeah…" A light blush tinted his cheeks. Satoshi couldn't help but smile at how adorable the boy looked right then.

"Hmm." An idea suddenly popped in his head. "I'll be right back." He said as he got out of bed; not caring that he was still nude. Daisuke watched him go; his eyes traveling over his perfect body, his blush deepened when he realized what he had been doing.

(And you call me a perv.) Dark commented.

"I didn't mean to look." Daisuke defended. "He's nude I couldn't miss it."

(Riiiight…look I'm going to leave you and your lover boy alone before things get too out of hand…again.) Daisuke rolled his eyes to Dark's comment. Satoshi came back in he had a hand behind his back and a sly smirk.

"…What are you hiding Satoshi?" Daisuke asked suspiciously.

"Nothing much." He stood in front of the bed for a moment. "You like what you see?" He asked when he caught Daisuke's wandering eyes. The comment brought the bright blush back to the teen's cheeks, that was when Satoshi took out a small digital camera and snapped a picture.

"Hey!" Daisuke sat up. "Why did you do that?"

"You looked so cute I had to get a photo." He smiled, a rare sight, and sat on the edge of the bed and Daisuke sat up.

"So what am I your model now?" He asked with a grin, Satoshi seemed to think it over a moment.

"I suppose you could be, if you wanted."

"Oh this is going to be fun!" Daisuke couldn't hold in the excitement.

Satoshi raised an eyebrow at him. "So what are you planning in that little mind of yours?" Daisuke was silent for a moment then suddenly reached out and snatched the camera from Satoshi; the action caught him off guard, so he didn't attempt to stop him.

Daisuke sat back holding the camera triumphantly. "Ha, Ha! Now it's mine!" He laughed.

"And what are you going to do with it?" Satoshi asked, Daisuke held it up and snapped a photo of Satoshi.

"Take pictures of you."

"But I was going to do that."

"Mmmm we could take turns!"

"I suppose." Satoshi smiled again. The two teens did just that; taking turns taking photographs of one another, some were posed others just randomly taken. They did that for about an hour; when it struck Daisuke, he had to be home by 8:00.

"Oh my god I forgot!" He burst out suddenly without warning.

"…What's wrong?"

"What time is it?" Daisuke asked.

Satoshi examined his watch. "It's about 7:00 why?" Daisuke sighed and relaxed.

"I told my mom I would be home by 8:00." He laid back on the bed.

"I see." Satoshi picked up the camera. "I'll get these developed later." He set it on the night stand by the bed then laid down with Daisuke, intertwining his fingers with his.

"...I don't want to go home…" Daisuke whined.

"You have too; you don't want to get into trouble do you?"

"No…" Daisuke sighed again. "I wish I could just stay here with you though."

"Well you can't…and you should be getting dressed so we can get you home, it's a long walk." The bluenette suggested.

"Yeah you're right." The redhead reluctantly got up and went around the room searching for his discarded clothing. Satoshi just picked up his boxers and slipped them on. He couldn't walk home with Daisuke it would be too risky, he picked up the camera and left Daisuke in the room. The redhead dressed and attempted to fix his appearance so nothing looked suspicious. Satoshi returned a few minutes later and handed Daisuke something.

"What's this?" He asked looking down. It was one of the pictures he had taken of Satoshi no more than ten minutes ago. "How did you get it developed already?"

"It's a digital; you take out the memory chip and insert it into a specialized printer and choose the picture you want and it prints it on this photo paper. You said this was your favorite so I printed it off for you."

"Wow…thanks!" He hugged the taller teen. "I'll keep it forever and ever!" Satoshi just raised his eyebrows, Daisuke could be so kidlike at times.

"You should be going now."

"Yeah…" He hung his head a bit and walked out of the room and down the stairs to the entry way, Satoshi had followed him the whole way.

"So I'll see you tomorrow." Satoshi said, Daisuke opened the door and stood in the doorway, he gave Satoshi a peck on the cheek.

"Yup…bye Satoshi!" He flashed a smile then went on his way. Satoshi shut the door and leaned against it, he had a warm feeling inside, something he hadn't felt in years, but it was short lived.

(About time that little annoyance left.) Krad spoke up suddenly. (The way you two are constantly at it; it's making me sick!)

"Well sorry; looks like you're going to have to put up with it." Satoshi replied.

(Hmm I wonder what your father would think of this. His adopted Hikari sleeping with the enemy Niwa, tsk, tsk.) Krad taunted.

"My STEP-father doesn't have a say in this, it's my curse, my family, my decision…not his."

(If you say so…I would just be cautious of what you two do from now on.) Krad warned, with a smile. (Such public displays of affection could get you in trouble.)

"Oh hush up, my father is out of town; he's not going to find out about anything."

(If you say so.) Krad sang. (But what if he were tipped off by a certain someone hmm?) Krad began to use his influence on the teen; using the images of Daisuke to trigger a transformation. (You may be able to withstand my influence while around him now, but I can still gain control at the times when you are vulnerable.) Satoshi clutched at his chest and he fell to his knees.

"Kr…ad…w…w…what are you...trying…to do?"

(I think you've had it too easy these past few days my sweet Satoshi; I want out!)

"Why? W…what do you…w…w…want to d, do?" He clenched his teeth as a tremendous pain spread through him. He had managed to control his emotions around Daisuke; but he didn't understand how Krad was still capable of gaining control; was it the mere fact that he and Daisuke hadn't realized their true love for one another?

(You're affections have been returned master Satoshi; but not your love, it's a different thing. Now I want some time to do what I would like.)

"No! you're going to hurt him I know it!" Satoshi yelled.

(Master Satoshi I wouldn't do that…yet…I'd like to wait for the perfect moment.) The sadistic angel smirked. Satoshi was on his hands on knees he could feel Krad was taking over; he felt the ripping of the flesh in his back; as the angelic white wings were released.

"AAHH!" Satoshi cried out at the wings tearing his back; the pain it felt so much worse this time. He could feel the blood trickling from the open gashes.

(Yes…feel the pain my love…the pain I endure seeing you with that damned boy!)

Daisuke ran practically the whole way home; it was a warm clear night so he had no worry of getting lost. He held the photo of Satoshi close to his chest

(YAWN so…what did I miss?) Dark asked suddenly.

"Nothing much; we're just going home." Daisuke replied casually.

(Hmm what's that in your hand?)

"…A photograph…" The redhead said simply.

(…alright then.) Dark was silent for a few minutes. (Wait…you two were taking pictures? Man Daisuke you're kinkier than I thought!) The thief teased.

Daisuke sighed. "No Dark…we took these AFTER all that, you always jump to conclusions."

(Hey it's what I do.)

"Uh...huh." Daisuke slowed his run down to a walk.

(So what's the picture of?) Daisuke lifted it and looked at it; knowing what he saw Dark would see. It was of Satoshi laying in the bed, he was on his side with his head resting against his hand which was being propped by his elbow. His lips were slightly parted giving him a seductive look; and his other hand rested on his own hip. A single white sheet covered the rest of him, it began below his waist and just barely covered everything. (Whoa.) Was Dark's comment. (Looks like something you'd fine in a homo soft core porno magazine.)

Daisuke raised an eyebrow. "I take it you would know?" He asked.

(Just a guess!) Dark recoiled.

Daisuke just smiled and shook his head. "Fine a lucky guess." They continued to chat all the way home, it was about 7:30 by the time he finally got to the front door. Making sure to hide the picture he tucked it in his back pocket and opened the door. "I'm home!" Daisuke called out a bit fearfully; he was afraid his mother might have found out. He walked down the hall to the living room where he found his mother sitting and reading a book.

"Oh Daisuke your back; how did the project go?" She asked casually.

"Project?...Oh yeah! Heh the project…it went fine." He replied uneasily; he had forgotten about the excuse he had given her.

"Hmm…that's interesting" She closed the book with a snap and set it down.

"Yeah well…guess I'll be going!" He turned to leave when he heard her call his name, he stopped and looked back. She was standing up and had a stern look on her face.

"You know I called the Harada residence about an hour ago; and she told me that you two had not arranged to meet one another, and there was no project." She walked towards him; her arms folded in front of her chest. "Where were you?"

"Uh…um…the, the, the, park!" He attempted; Dark was shaking his head.

(niiiice.)

"Stop lying to me Daisuke!" Emiko nearly shouted at her son. "Where were you?" She asked again.

"…." Daisuke was silent; he didn't want to tell her but knew any excuse he gave she wouldn't believe.

"What's this?" She snatched the picture that was sticking out from his pocket.

"Mom! No, no, no!" He tried to grab it back but it was too late; she was holding it up and he hand cupped her mouth as if in horror.

"…Daisuke…what is…this?" She asked after a long dreadful silence.

Daisuke hung his head; there was no way out of this one. "…It's Satoshi…I went over to his house tonight."

"Why would you do such a thing?" She looked down at him. "After I told you the risks, I ordered that you not see him! You disobey me and put your life in danger…for what? To take these pictures for your jerk off sessions?"

"It's not like that mom! It wasn't my fault Towa made me eat these…"

"Don't go blaming other people for your mistakes Daisuke!" She interrupted. "You left on your own two feet to go and see this little manipulator."

"Satoshi is not a manipulator, he likes me for me; why do you feel you always have to protect me? I'm 17 I'm going to be a legal adult in a year, why can't you just trust my decisions!" Daisuke exploded, he had enough of his mother treating him like a child, and talking about Satoshi so badly. "Dark is with me at all times and even he supports this; and he is the one that's Satoshi's enemy not me!"

"How many times do I have to tell you; Hikari's are manipulators, they can say one thing and make you believe it then go and do just the opposite."

"I know Satoshi is telling me the truth. I am the only person he has ever been close to, I know what he does is for real. I can feel it when he touches me; kisses me, holds me, MAKES LOVE TO ME! That I am the most important person to him!" His mother was silent after that; she seemed to be taking her time in taking in what Daisuke had just said.

"…You are never to see that…boy…again." She said slowly.

"You can't do that" Daisuke tried to protest; but she held up her had signaling him to be quiet.

"I'm not going to let my only son become a cock sucking, ass fucking faggot!" Daisuke was taken aback by her harsh words, in all the years he had never known her to use such strong language, and it was because of him she did. Emiko pointed to the hallway. "Get out of my sight."

"But…"

"Go to your room…just get away from me now! DO IT!" She yelled and Daisuke reluctantly obeyed. He turned and ran upstairs to his room he felt the hot tears starting to form in his eyes. This was getting out of hand; this fight was worse than the one he had with her a few days ago. He slammed the door shut and paced his room in anger and hurt his mothers words; the tears spilled from his eyes as he began to cry. Why doesn't she understand? Why did she have to say that? She hates me now because I like boys…not just because I'm dating Satoshi, that plays a big part but…why? Why does she have to be this way? Can't she be happy that I am happy? All the thoughts swirled in his mind in a big jumbled mess.

"Why is it all so complicated!" He whispered to no one in particular.

(…Daisuke…I'm sorry about…all this.) Dark's voice was actually soothing, how Daisuke wished the angel was real so he could hold onto somebody in his moment of hurt.

"Dark…what should I do?" He asked through a sob.

(Just do what your heart tells you, if you love Satoshi you shouldn't let anything stand in your way and that love. Even if it is friends, family, or whatever because you know…throughout your entire life you have only one true love. Some people miss it and are never truly happy, but others who stop at nothing to be with that certain someone you'd swear they were the happiest people in the world.)

"But why does it have to be so complicated?" He asked Dark.

(Sometimes the more difficult something is; the more rewarding the outcome.) The thief answered simply.

Daisuke sniffled. "Thanks Dark." For he cocky the thief could be; when the time came he could be very wise. The redhead appreciated having someone like him in his life; what he had thought to be a curse three years ago was more of a blessing.
