Well, I figured since I have some free time I should update this story. The past few chapters no one has reviewed so I am a little sad, but oh well. I like this story so it doesn't matter, lol. Anyhoo, hope to those that are reading this are still enjoying it.

I close my eyes and all I see is blackness, I am surrounded by it. And then there is a light and it keeps getting bigger. Until its almost surrounding me. All I have to do is let go of the darkness and I shall be free. Free to love.

New Feelings, Forbidden Lies

The night slowly turns into day.

I found my light within his wings.

Maybe hope hasn't left me just yet.

But waiting for those black feathers to surround me,

I found the sweet protection of those arms, or at least that is what I want.

"Wow!" Dark said, flipping the pages of her notebook to find not so angsty poems. His dark purple eyes looked with awe as Wiz sat on his shoulder looking at the book with mild interest as his master seemed very intrigued by it. "Wiz, there is hope for me yet!" he said, in triumph as he closed the book with that smirk on his face yet again. Dark had been trying for days now to see Toumyo, but she always avoided him. The Phantom Thief was beginning to think that she really didn't like him, but these few poems had lifted his spirits once again. Now he had a chance to win her heart. He stood up and began to leave the park as he decided that now would be a good time to stop by Moon Glen and pay a visit to the object of his affections.

'Dark, leave her alone. She doesn't wanna talk to you.'

'Nonsense Daisuke, she wrote these poems.'

'They weren't meant for you to read.'

'Alright, so I will send Wiz when she gets off work. He can relay what she says about me.'

Nothing but a sigh came from Daisuke as he just knew he couldn't win. So, Dark called Wiz and sent him to follow Toumyo as he walked into the shadows to hide himself from other people. It was also to change back into Daisuke without anyone seeing. With another sigh, Daisuke walked past the Moon Glen. Even though Dark was still in control, Daisuke mumbled about abusing Wiz like this. It wasn't right to make him and Wiz do all of his dirty work, but Dark wasn't listening to Daisuke's complaining.

The white bunny hopped along the sidewalk and stopped at near the entrance to Moon Glen. His big eyes looked around as he was waiting ever so patiently for her to walk through the door. One of his ears twitched and he looked up to see her looking tired. He hopped up to her feet. "Kyu!"

Toumyo jumped as she looked down and then laughed. "Oh it's you again, Kyu." she said, kneeling down and opening her arms. A small giggled came from her as she felt him jump into her arms. "Come on, lets go shopping for groceries. I only need a few things." she said, walking to the market, a smile on her face.

"Kyu! Kyu!"

She smiled as she leaned over to hold the creature in her arms as she walked to the market. Her auburn eyes seemed to shine as she began to buy food. She heard his cries again when she walked by the fruit stand. "What? You want some fruit?" she asked, to see him nod. "Alright.." she said, reaching for a peach but heard him cry out again. "Alright, what kind?" she asked, pointing to a few before reaching the strawberries where Kyu wriggled excitedly in her arms. Toumyo knew then that her furry friend wanted those. She bought some, and then made her way back home.

Once there, she set down the bag of strawberries and Kyu. The auburn haired girl turned her back to take the rest of the groceries and put them in the fridge. Hearing the bag behind her move, she looked back to see Kyu eating away at the berries. "Kyu! Don't eat them all at once! You will get a sick stomach." she said, laughing some as she watched him. After a few moments she blinked, and then realized that her poems were back at the park. "Oh, no! Come on, Kyu. I have to go to the park." she said, going to the door as the white creature followed her.

Toumyo walked quickly to the park where she franticly looked for her book of poems. Her eyes looked all around, and then she sat on a bench, letting out a sigh. "I can't find it. Great!" she said, looking down at Kyu who nuzzled her leg. She smiled some as she leaned over and took him in her arms. "Sorry, Kyu. I won't be reading any poems to you today. I wonder if someone picked it up." she said, looking out into the park. Her auburn eyes looked sad and then angry. "Well as long as that thief didn't take it, then we should be good. Right? He can't read those."

"Kyu?"

"Well, he has the nerve to think that I will one day like him. I know how many girls he likes. I will not be a number! I won't." she said, with a nod looking very serious. "So he can take those breathtaking eyes and soft, deep voice to some other girl. Oh man, listen to me. I like him don't I? I can't though. I won't." she said, standing up, holding Kyu close.

"Kyu! Kyuuu!"

"I just can't." she said, looking sad. "No matter how much my heart wants it." she said, with a long sigh.

Kyu wiggled some and Toumyo let him go. He jumped up and down some, but then lowered his head. He hopped behind her as she announced she was going home. He followed her for a little while, and then went to find Dark again. It didn't take the white creature to long to find his master, which he relayed everything as best as he could. He watched as Dark nodded and smirked. He knew what that meant, his master was going after Toumyo. So when he was summoned to by Dark's wings, he listened and became those black wings that Toumyo wrote so much about.

Toumyo fell on her bed when she got home and looked depressed. She didn't move for quite a while, even though the phone had rung about three times in the last hour. She knew it was her cousin, but she didn't care. If he came over, he came over. It wasn't like she was hiding anything. She would lock her feelings away from everyone. Again she heard the ring of the telephone only this time, she got up grumbling. Her hand picked up the cordless phone. "Hello." she said, sounding exhausted.

"Toumyo, where have you been?"

"Satoshi, I was taking a nap. I am fine."

"I am coming over earlier tonight, around 8."

Her eyes looked at the clock and saw that it was 7:30. "Alright." she said, yawning before she bid him goodbye.

With that, she went downstairs and began to make herself something to eat. The auburn haired girl stopped as she looked at the bag that had some strawberries still in it. A small smile came to her face as she picked them up and moved them out of the way. She didn't know how Satoshi or rather Krad would act. He might know that it was a weird creature and get mad for inviting it in. A sigh came from her. All Toumyo wanted was a normal life, but she would never have that. She jumped as she heard the doorbell. She walked up to the door and opened it to see her cousin. "Oh, your here a bit early."

"Father wants me to go to the station tonight."

"I see."

"You aren't going anywhere tonight?" he asked, a gold glint could be seen in his eyes.

"No." she said, lowering her head.

"Toumyo." he said, softly.

She looked up with sad eyes to see that the gold was gone, replaced with the serene blue that she often wished could be normal. But that was the curse of being an Hikari, you would never be normal.

"Be careful."

The blue haired boy then turned and left her to finish cooking. The girl looked around the empty home and sighed. How long would she be without someone to welcome her here, make her smile. She looked back to see make herself a plate. Toumyo sat at the small kitchen table in emptiness of her home. It was silent as she thought about what she would do if she were free to be normal. A sigh came from her as she set down her fork. Her auburn eyes focused on the glass as she watched the bubbles rise in her drink. Her heart sank as she shook those unruly feelings, and then continued to eat in silence. She wished that Krad didn't keep a close eye one her. "I just want to be free." she said, as she got up and walked to the sink.

From there, she went to her room to get some clothes and then to take a nice hot shower. The older teen needed it after the events that had happened in the past 24 hours. She closed the bathroom door and locked it. After singing in the shower and relaxing under the refreshing water, she made her way back to her room with the towel wrapped around her hair and only in her underwear. She closed the door before walking to the closet to get out some PJs. Feeling a breeze, she turned around and frowned. "I know I left that door closed." she said, looking at the balcony. After a few moment, she turned back and grabbed the silk nightgown from the hanger and put it on. Her footsteps took her to her desk where she took the towel off her head and began to dry her hair. After feeling another breeze, she walked to the French doors.

"If you do that, then your angel might not be able to fly through."

She froze as the towel fell to the floor. Toumyo knew exactly who that was and her fists clenched as she turned around. "You are a big pervert! How long have you been in here?" she asked, glaring at him.

"Hey...hey! That isn't a very nice thing to say to someone who is bringing back a valuable item." he said, showing her a notebook that she knew was hers.

"You give that back." she said, marching up to him with an hand extended. "Right now!"

"Or what?" he asked, that smirk still there.

"Or I will scream..." she said, looking so frustrated that Dark found it cute. "And stop smirking like that. You big pervert! I can't believe you are here."

"I thought I was going to get a hug and a word of thanks, not be scolded. Calm down, love, I didn't watch. I merely stayed in the shadows until you were decent. Besides in our relationship, that would be way to soon." he said, with a knowing nod.

"Oh! Dark! Get out!" she said, almost yelling. "No wait! Give me back my book first." She said, storming away from him.

"Mm, before I give it back I am gonna read some."

"What!" she exclaimed as she rushed up closer to him. "No! Dark! Don't you dare!"

That smirk stay there as he opened the book slightly but just barely as he felt her tackle him and grab the book. He kept his grip as he looked up at her frustrated face. "Well, this is a bit sudden." he said, as his eyes looked at her shocked face. A slight chuckle came from him as she hit his chest, calling him a pervert. "And you even have a pet name for me."

"Dark! Just let go of the book you crazed maniac! Don't make me call my cousin." she said, glaring at him as he let go of the book quickly. Now Toumyo had been on top of him and was pulling on the book to get out of his grip. When Dark had let go, she rolled over backwards and landed on her stomach with grunt. She looked up to see him above her with a sad look on his face. She pushed herself up to her knees and took the book in her arms and held it close. "You know you don't have to be a jerk. This book is private, and you just had to be the thief you are and take it!"

He lowered his head, causing his bangs to fall forward. A sad look was on his face as all hope of hearing her crack just a little were out the window. "You left it when you feel asleep in the park. I merely wanted it to go back to your hands before your cousin found it. I didn't want harm to come to you because of those poems." he said, raising his head some to look at her stunned face. That sad look was still there as some of his bangs were still covering his face some. "But I am just the thief I am..." he said, making his way to the French doors leaving some feathers on the carpet.

The auburn haired girl looked at a black feather fall silently to the ground, and then her eyes looked back at him who now had his back turned to her. Somehow regret began to well inside her heart for being so cruel. She didn't have to be that harsh did she. He was actually doing something nice. Maybe he did have a heart and wasn't as egotistical as she thought. Biting her lower lip, she stood up. "Sorry." she said, holding her left elbow with her head down.

He stopped as he heard that one word and turned his head. "Hmm?" he asked as he saw a tear glisten in the moonlight. He fully turned around and took a step towards her.

"Don't...I can't." she said, arguing with herself. "I can't Dark."

"I..." he stopped moving and speaking as he watched her movements.

Another breeze blew into the room causing his hair to move slightly. Her eyes caught sight of him standing there with moon in the background, and she whimpered some. How on earth was she supposed to keep from falling for him? Angels were the worst. That look of concern on his face, the way his clothes seemed to fit him oh so well, the way he stood, all those things she couldn't take. These were feelings that she didn't want to feel for him, but slowly it was happening. Her eyes gazed over his well built body and almost shivered as she thought of being in his strong arms, flying through the night sky. She shook her head some and stopped. Opening her eyes, she was looking dead at his chest. Which in the button up shirt that was slightly open, her heart was pounding. Her cheeks flushed as she looked up and caught site of his eyes again. "I can't...it's forbidden."

"I know...I know." he said with a sigh. "You know, its hard, being forbidden to do something that your heart yearns for. But if you did give in, you would be forced to live a lie. I wouldn't wish that on you. I only want to take away pain, not bring more." he said, looking back out the window.

Toumyo nodded. "I understand that." she said as she pressed her lips together. "Thanks for bringing back my book." she said, softly. She watched him nod, and then she leaned up, kissing his cheek. Blushing she looked away. "I shouldn't have done that. You better get going." she said, smiling some feeling her heart pound some.

He smiled, and then walked out the French doors to the balcony. He waved before taking to the night sky leaving her there smiling warmly. Toumyo knew she was losing a battle that was never supposed to happen, but love was something that just happened. As she stood there, she was blissfully unaware of another angel watching her with cold gold eyes. He wasn't to happy about his rival leaving the house where Toumyo resided, but the blue haired boy took control before anything serious happened. Satoshi shook his head as he made his way back to the mansion. Things weren't going well for the Hikari.
