This is a short chapter but an important one none the less. Please read and review! smiles
Chapter 5
She fainted right into his arms. Now what? "Take her home." No! that's twice in one week! "Then take her to the park and wait 'til she wakes up." Oh… he groaned. Fine…
Daisuke (in Dark form) placed his love gently beneath a weeping willow. A nice secluded area to comfort her in. "Hmm?" she groaned and her eyes fluttered open. "Dark!" the girl smiled and giggled.
"It's me Daisuke."
"What?" she asked. Though it was more of a flat statement than a question.
"Yes. It is me. I know that it's strange, but… yeah." That was a pitiful ending. Dark remarked.
"Show me."
"Huh?"
"Show me!"
"Ok." The pond beside them quivered slightly. Then arose a wave of water. Standing high and then toppling onto them in a rush of frigid droplets. Risa cried out in horror.
But not a bit soaked through to their skin. Not a bit touched them. There was just Daisuke and her. He helped Risa up.
"Now I know why I never saw to two at the same time." She grasped him and held on tight. He felt her lips touch his cheek, like rose petals. Her grip loosened and she looked him in the eye.
"So, do you love me?" Daisuke asked eagerly.
And now to leave you in suspense. Does Risa love him?
Chapter 6
The teen's soaked hair waved in the breeze. A leaf fell downward onto her. She brushed it away and continued walking. "Hmm?" Riku's head turned. Daisuke? Risa? What she beheld astounded her. All of her muscles went stiff, then extremely limp. Her knees collapsed, and she found herself kneeling in disbelief. Risa… kissed him. Though it was only on the cheek, it was still unusual. Risa liked Dark! What was she doing? Riku's eyes watered and tears began dribbling down her cheeks. She immediately jolted up and turned away. A look of sorrow and hate overcame her face. Her legs jolted one after the other, hauling her away. Risa, how could you? That was the only thought crossing her mind. She felt torn and trapped. All she could see was the rain. Or was that her tears?
"Daisuke." She whispered, breath coming in gasps. "Oh, Daisuke…." By now her cheeks were nearly painted in red, and her eyes literally looked like pools of tears. Her hair was so windblown, it seemed as if she walked up to a fifty-foot fan and turned in on. The girl's uniform was splotched with rain and tears, and she had lost one of her shoes during the flee. All in all, she was quite a sorry sight. But she didn't care. She just kept running.
Riku couldn't bear to head home, so instead she begged her friend to let her stay. (Author's note: yes she did call her dad to let him know where she was.) Once she had gulped down a bowl of soup, Riku excused her self and headed up stairs to the bed that they had made up for her. One leg at a time, she crawled into the bed. She then rested her head on a pillow and slept her heart out.
Daisuke and Risa were strolling hand in hand to the bus stop. They turned to kiss each other….
"What?" Riku sat up straight. "Oh, only a dream…." She fell back down to her cot.
"You okay Riku?" asked Yatsu, her friend.
"Yes." She called in a sing-song-ish voice. And even though she said it, she didn't mean it. Her pillow began to get damp with silent weeping.
An even shorter chapter, and even more important!
Chapter 7
"Daisuke…" Risa paused. "No, I don't. Thank you for trusting me though."
"What? Why?"
"Because…" she paused again. "SATOSHI'S HOT! Bye now." She replied quite happily. Risa then skipped off to join the other girls looking for 'Mr. Hot Guy'.
"I can't believe that Risa is so shallow. I've wasted all my time hunting for the girl of my dreams, I never realized who she really was." Daisuke noticed Riku strolling by with Yatsu, giggling and gesturing to Satoshi's fan mob. Behind my eyes was another me. And I don't mean Dark.
