Weeks had passed and Yami and Daisuke had become fast friends. Satoshi seemed like he disapproved, but he didn't do anything to stop Daisuke so Daisuke just kind of ignored Satoshi's concerned glances. Yami was kind of like Dark, Daisuke found out. Except, Yami was a lot more possessive of his friends (especially Daisuke), he is more malicious at times, and he thought of Daisuke's opinion more. Yami was also like Dark, though. He was handsome (go figure), he was popular (with the ladies), and he has excellent stamina. Daisuke thought Yami could be a Phantom Thief as well, if he was trained.

Obviously, the qualities of Yami attracted Daisuke like a moth to a flame. He was so similar to Dark that Daisuke can sometimes see Dark instead of Yami. Daisuke tried to deny the attraction, but it was useless the more time Daisuke spent with Yami. He was everything Dark was and everything he wasn't. So it was hard not to fall in love with Yami. But don't get Daisuke wrong, he still loved Dark, but Yami is easing Daisuke's loneliness bit by bit.

Please just don't play with me
My paper heart will bleed
This wait for destiny won't do
Be with me, please, I beseech you
Simple things, that make you run away
Catch you if I can

Falling in love with someone like Yami (or Dark) had its bad points. Yami was such a playboy like Dark. He accepted any kind of flirting from the ladies, but he wasn't a slut. That much Daisuke was certain (and pleased of). Jealousy can sometimes be a handful, Daisuke learned. He had watched as girls thrust love letters, bento, candy, and gifts into Yami's hand. It was hard for Daisuke to not growl or snarl at the girls and grab Yami and shout 'He's mine!'

That kind of action wouldn't do. It would surely scare off any friends if they see someone like Daisuke act so possessive. But Daisuke's jealousy was always pacified when Yami would look apologetically his way and mouth a 'Forgive me?' Daisuke wasn't sure if Yami was apologizing for the fact that all the girls liked him and not Daisuke or the fact that they couldn't hang out. Daisuke hoped it was the latter.

Daisuke was also soothed by the fact that afterwards, Yami would always walk over to Daisuke. They would both look at the cards and / or letters and joke around teasingly. Just being with the other would calm them down. That's how Satoshi described them anyways.

Tears fall, down your face
The taste, is something new
Something that I know
Moving on is easiest when I'm around you

Yami understood the silence that sometimes Daisuke had. Dark knew that Daisuke is still sad that he's not there for Daisuke. At least not as Dark Mousy. Dark wasn't sure if Daisuke had fallen in love with Yami Kaitou, but he wouldn't take any chances. He was happy being Yami. He could be in daylight and spend time with his Daisuke. Nothing more could go wrong. Satoshi wasn't dating Daisuke and Satoshi wouldn't stop him from getting close to Daisuke, even if Yami were suspicious. All was going according to plan.

"Daisuke, don't give out your heart as easily as you did before. You might get heartache from misunderstandings." Satoshi said. Earlier, he had pulled Daisuke aside for a moment and Dark wasn't scared that Satoshi would exploit his secret. But Dark wondered about what Satoshi had said. Being an artwork of the Hikari had benefits; it gave you better hearing than humans.

'Did that mean Daisuke had fallen in love before? When I asked Daisuke about Satoshi, he said he never dated him, so who does that leave? Riku and Risa was only small attraction. That's what Daisuke said. So whom could he have loved? Was it… It can't be. Daisuke never mentioned it when he talks to Yami.' Dark thought. Daisuke soon returned and had a smile. A strained one. Did that mean Daisuke had fallen in love? Did that mean Daisuke is now falling in love with Yami?

So bottle up old love, and throw it out to sea
Watch it away as you cry

"Daisuke. Do you want to go see a movie this Saturday?" Yami asked. Daisuke was just packing up to go home. That question was unexpected yet welcome. Daisuke was blushing while he stiffly nodded. He picked up his backpack that he dropped in his hurry to say yes. Waving goodbye, Daisuke quickly left. Once outside of the school, Daisuke squealed in his mind and acted like a girl in love. But he was a boy…

Anyways, Daisuke wondered if he should've said no instead. Satoshi was right; Daisuke shouldn't have fallen for Yami so easily. If Yami just transferred in, who's to say that he won't just as quickly transfer out? Daisuke doesn't think he can stand the pain if the one he loves so suddenly leave again. Not after Dark. Yami was so similar to Dark that Daisuke can't help but feel wary. But that was ridiculous; Yami was by no means part of Black Wings and no Phantom Thief. So why did Daisuke still feel like Yami would go away?

That thought ended. Daisuke wasn't exactly why he loved Yami either. Maybe he was a replacement for Dark. Maybe not. It's hard to say. Daisuke just hopes that Yami wouldn't hurt him as much as Dark did and suffer another memory loss.

"Mom, I'm going to be out tomorrow with a friend, okay? Don't make too much lunch for yourself." Daisuke shouted down the stairs as he entered his room. He threw his book bag onto the floor and jumped onto the bed. He stuffed his face onto the pillow and laughed happily. 'Yami and I are going out! Yes!' Daisuke thought blissfully. 'Erase all doubts and have fun!'

Of course, Daisuke wouldn't want them to go too fast, but Daisuke was pleased at the date. He giggled like a girl and all that crap. On the morning after, Daisuke finished taking a shower and walked into his room. He was about to put on some random clothes when he thought, 'Oh no! What should I wear? Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap!' Daisuke started panicking and ran around in circles in the middle of the room in his towel. The noise woke up Emiko and she knocked on the door.

"Daisuke, what's wrong? What's with all that noise? Are you okay?" Emiko asked worriedly. When there was no response, she burst through the door. She saw Daisuke almost naked with only a towel on running around in circles. "Honey, what's wrong?"

"I don't know what to wear. I'm meeting with Yami today. Oh, I'm so nervous! What should I wear?" Daisuke ranted frantically. He waved his hands around wildly and Emiko took pity onto her son. She went into his closet and searched through his many layers of clothing that once belonged to Dark. She threw a pair of khakis at Daisuke and some boxers. Next she found a sleeveless turtleneck and threw that at Daisuke. She waited for Daisuke to change before turning around. Daisuke was in a pair of dark red (kind of like blood) khakis and that brought out his eyes. The sleeveless turtleneck was a dark blue. All in all, Daisuke looked very casual and not as nervous. Daisuke looked at himself before thanking Emiko.

Yami waited at the movie theatre's entrance and looked around for Daisuke. The movie they were watching was about to start soon and Daisuke was still nowhere to be seen. Sighing, Yami looked at his watch before turning around and walking up the stairs.

"Yami! Wait up! I'm sorry for being so late!" Daisuke shouted as he joined Yami. Yami glanced down at him and almost drooled at the pale skin Daisuke was 'flaunting'. It was no wonder why Dark had fallen for Daisuke. Daisuke had bright red hair and ruby-like eyes. The dark clothing Emiko seemed to like to dress him in brought out his pale skin and long lashes. Daisuke was perfect in all meaning of the word.

Waiting, day to day it goes through
My lips are sealed for her
My tongue is tied to a dream of being with you
To settle for less is not what I prefer


The alarm was blaring when Dark awoke. He blindly tried to slam the snooze button and after a few minutes, he succeeded. 'Damn, that was a dream? I knew it was too good to be true. Daisuke would never act so damn girly.' Dark thought. He slowly stretched and thought about why he asked Daisuke out. Normally, Dark would just pretend to be Yami and stalk –ahem- observes Daisuke from afar. He had tried to find out who Daisuke's ex-love slash crush was, but to no avail. But Dark was okay with that; it just meant that there was no rival for Daisuke's love.

So bottle up old love, and throw it out to sea

Dark dressed himself in what he would normally wear on jobs (by jobs he meant stealing from the Hikari clan). No doubt he was very hot and very flustered women would ogle at him. But Dark only wanted Daisuke to ogle at him. That was why he was planning to seduce Daisuke on their little 'date'. Dark just hoped that he wouldn't do anything that would remind Daisuke of his 'ex'.

Dark looked at himself in the mirror and looked at his eyes. He was wearing contacts and he was wondering if he should surprise Daisuke by having his original iris-color back. It would raise suspicion, but Dark could just say his eyes were actually brown but he had many colors of contacts. Dark used his hair dye and his wine-colored hair instantly turned black. He winked at himself in the mirror and was pleased to see that he was still attractive despite the changes he made in his appearance. Dark wasn't boastful; no, he was simply one who knows his own beauty.

Dark hoped his appearance would please Daisuke. He doesn't want to scare off Daisuke or make Daisuke suspicious of him. He just wants to love and be loved (aw). Not really, but you get the point, right?

Please just don't play with me

The part in Dark's dream where Yami was nervously waiting for Daisuke to appear was real. Daisuke had came running and panting at Yami before he placed his hands on his kneecaps and just gasped for breaths. Though Daisuke's choice of clothes was different from the dream, he was still cute and beautiful to Dark. Daisuke was wearing a dark green Chinese shirt that had sleeves to his elbow. The first two buttons were left undone and pale skin was shown. Dark quickly looked at Daisuke's pants before his mind turn into a traitor and wonder is all of Daisuke's skin that pale. Daisuke's slacks was just a baggy tan pants and for that Dark was glad. If Daisuke was wearing leather or something of the like, Dark was sure his traitorous mind would slowly strip Daisuke.

Summertime, the nights are so long
The leaves fall down, and so do I into the arms of a friend
Winter nights
My bedside is cold, for I am gone
And spring blossoms you to me

Daisuke stood up and smiled at Dark. "Let's go, Yami. We don't want to be late for the movies. Now do we?" Daisuke said. His tone was so innocent that Dark groaned mentally. Was Daisuke trying to make Dark slash Yami jump him? Daisuke is just making things harder for Dark. Plus, Dark already has to act like Yami. Why must God torture Dark so badly? But at least Daisuke was here, right?

But Daisuke was the reason that Dark has to suffer this way…

Summertime, the nights are so long
The leaves fall down, and so do I into the arms of a friend
Winter nights
My bedside is cold, for I am gone
And spring blossoms you...
To me

'I wonder how am I going to hide a hard-on from Daisuke when we have seats right next to each other?' Dark thought as they bought popcorn and soda and settled down in the farthest row from the screen. The lights were still on and Dark hoped that his drink's ice would calm his mini-Dark down. Otherwise, problems would arise.


A/N: It's raining; I just finished a bottle of orange juice. I get a tiny bit hyper from the juice you see. That's why I said be scared and the likes and laughed evilly in the warning. Are you scared yet? My Paper Heart is… I don't know what to say. I just got the idea of using this song from a DNAngel AMV on YouTube. Obviously it's not really DarkDaisuke, but I kind of like it anyways. And the lyrics don't even match. It says GIRL and I used it for a male/male pairing. What idiocy. Want to see the AMV? You have to take out the spaces and parentheses. http/ (space) www. (space) youtube. (space) com/ (space) watch?vH3vFCe8vVs&searchDNAngel20My20Paper20Heart I don't know what I'm doing with so many notes. But anyway, this is like a filler chapter. It'll just quicken things up a bit and I don't know where this is going.
