A/N: Okay, so not as cute, but I am trying. I want to keep this story innocent, as my others are...questionable. Anyways, this is leading up to something, like a third chapter, but that will probably be it.
"words" 'thoughts'
The days went by, and life went on for Daisuke Niwa and Dark Mousey. The boys kept up the front of being "just friends" at school, so as not to arouse suspicion. They hoped and prayed that no one would ever find out.
Dark and Daisuke often spent the night at one of their houses, often Daisuke's. His mother was kind, and even better, she was oblivious to the blooming relationship between her son and her son's best friend.
Dark lived with his aunt and uncle, an aunt and uncle who were barely ever home. Dark was always very careful not to let Daisuke's parent's find out that there were never adults in his house. He didn't want them to say that Daisuke couldn't come over anymore.
The weeks went by, and life went on. Soon Daisuke's birthday was fast approaching, and this left Dark with quite a dilemma. 'What am I going to give Dai for his birthday?' The thought was always in his head, because now, their relationship had changed.
Dark agonized over what to do for Daisuke's birthday. He agonized for three days, not paying attention to anything but his own worried brain. Finally he knew what he was going to do. Daisuke's birthday was on a Friday this year. . . that left Dark only one option.
"Daisuke!" Dark called, after the last class of the day. "Would you like to spend the night this Friday night? My aunt and uncle are out agaoin this weekend. We can order pizzas and watch movies, and just hang out. Would you like to?"
"Of course, Dark. I would love to hang out that night." Daisuke leaned in toward his boyfriend, and whispered, "It's a date." He winked at Dark, and started home. Dark turned a light shade of pink. What did it mean?
Daisuke was being so bold. Why would he do that? Why would he say such things, such beautiful wonderful things? They were private things, and if anyone would have over heard them they could have been in serious trouble. . .but now Dark knew his idea was good.
The next day, Thursday, Dark asked what movies he should rent, what pizza he should buy. "It's all for you, Dai," he said, on their way to school that morning. That evening was an exciting one. He made some phone calls, then went out for provisions.
The next day, Friday. The day that Dark had been waiting for, agonizing over. Daisuke's birthday. Daisuke wondered why Dark left school halfway through the day. After school, Daisuke walked across town, and soon arrived at Dark's house.
He barged inside to see Dark standing in the living room, waiting for him. "So answer my question," Daisuke said as he flopped onto Dark's couch. "Why did you leave school halfway through the day?"
"Cuz I was busy," Dark replied, nonchalantly dodging the question. He walked into the dining room, knowing that Daisuke would follow. And he did. He gasped at what he saw. There were glowing candles on the table. There was Dark's aunt and uncle's beautiful china, set on the dining room table in a setting for two.
"Sit," Dark said. He pulled out a chair and motioned for Daisuke to sit down. Once he was, Dark walked into the kitchen, and came out a moment later rolling a cart filled with food. One bowl had vegetables, one bowl had salad, and there was a tray full of roast beef.
"What is all this?" Daisuke asked. He looked at Dark, who simply smiled sweetly. "No, really! Answer me! What is this?"
"Well, it's your birthday, right? So here is half of your gift. A homemade dinner. This is why I only went to school for half the day. I came home and slaved over the stove for you. Eat! The other half of your gift is yet to come!"
They ate, and had a wonderful time. 'This feels like we live together. It feels like we do this all the time!' Dark thought. He sighed, and wondered if he and Daisuke would ever really be able to live together.
Finished with dinner, they both pitched in and put the leftovers away. "Now what?" Daisuke asked. "What else do you have up your sleeve?"
"You'll see," Dark said, as he grabbed both their coats. "It's time to go."
"Go? Go where?"
"Out," Dark said. They walked toward through town. Finally, Dark pulled out two tickets. "I said we were going to watch a movie," Dark said, "and this will make it feel like a true date."
Daisuke turned pink. He was so happy! Finally, a true date with the person he loved.
Inside the theatre, alone in the dark, the two boys were able to hold hands—in public—and declare their love.
