Interlude: Forever Gone, Forever You
Daisuke watched as the girls crowd around Yami's desk after the passing period bell rang. They were already showering Yami with small gifts and cards. Yami was almost buried under the pile of gifts and cards and blushing females. Daisuke would've pitied him if he weren't glowering at the girls. Their actions reminded him of how they also fawn over Dark. They keep on trying to gain attention from hot guys just because of lust! Never love. Those who claim otherwise got over their crushes easily after Dark had left. Some love, pft.
Speaking of Dark, Daisuke wondered how he was doing. Once Dark leaves, where does he go? Does he go to the Black Wings or something? Or does he jump into the future to the next Niwa?
Thinking of Dark usually brought sadness to Daisuke, but he has a distraction now and it doesn't hurt as much. Yami was so perfect! He reminds Daisuke of Dark and yet not! Everything he was and wasn't. That was how Daisuke described him. Yami had helped him ease Daisuke's pain, even if Yami was unaware of doing so.
'Dark, I know I can't get over my love for you. It's unrequited, but I don't regret that. I love another now.' Daisuke thought as he stared out the windows. He saw a cloud that looked remarkably like Wiz with a strawberry. Cute.
I wanted you to be with me
for so long I don't even know why now
but now that I've given up on you
Defiantly you see me
With the warm sunlight on his back and the peaceful buzz of students' chattering, Daisuke dozed off lightly, in the middle of unconsciousness and awake. He dreamed of black wings and feathers and artworks. Dreamy eyes and hair the color of grape wine danced across his eyelids and he relived all the excitement and freedom he had when he shared his body with Dark. Memories of flying, making new friends, learning more about his family and the Hikari's, but most of all, spending time with Dark, his alter ego, were incredible and greatly treasured. That was the unconscious part.
The light from outside penetrated the thin layer of skin that made the eyelid was blocked momentarily by something spiky and black. Takeshi… Or Yami… The spikes are long so it's probably Yami. Hm… Why does his hair look so similar to Dark's? Same length. Same height. Do they share the same penis size as well? Luckily, Daisuke was sleepy and his body wouldn't make him blush. But back to the main point, Daisuke couldn't make out Yami's features except his shadow. That's so familiar. It was like looking at Dark disappearing into a bright background.
Dull aches were hollow in Daisuke's chest.
Walking away I see the pain
you put me through
Lost in your game to change the same
Forever gone, forever you
Dark disappearing. That thought is always in Daisuke's head. If not being the main topic, it always lurks in the dark recesses of his mind. The part that Dark once occupied. The thought of Daisuke's first male love always brought heartache and joy. Heartache… Daisuke never did confess… Joy… Dark knew Daisuke the best, better than himself sometimes.
Warm breaths on his cheek almost awoke him, but Daisuke held onto his nap. He doesn't want to escape this dream world, where things are easy to understand and you won't be afraid to get hurt. Someone was trying to bring him back to the human world, where pain dwells. No! Daisuke doesn't want to go yet. At least until Dark comes back. But his silent plea was ignored. Yami dragged a drowsy Daisuke to gym class.
Daisuke gazed at Yami's hand on his arm and smiled sadly and briefly. Yami didn't see; he was running to the gym, pulling Daisuke along. If it wasn't for the darker tan, Daisuke could've thought that Yami was Dark. But that couldn't be the case. Daisuke had watch Dark disappear, never getting a chance to express his love to his other half. Dark never knew and never will. An unrequited love never told to anyone, but easily figured out. What was the purpose?
There's something very wrong about this
I think you knew all along somehow
you'd only take me to change my mind
and leave me broken and defeated
Dark had seen the slight pain across Daisuke's features when he was asleep. A nightmare? But Daisuke shouldn't have enough time to think of anything horrid. So that was out of the question. Maybe something about the past? Dark had gotten that Daisuke was sad when he was gone from Satoshi, but Daisuke wouldn't still dream about it, would he?
Daisuke would want people to be truthful to him. And Dark wouldn't mind telling Daisuke about Yami's true identity, either. But it was just too early. Dark didn't even know how Daisuke had felt for him. Dark can't just blurt out the truth. Daisuke wouldn't believe him. But Daisuke would hate him if he has to find out later.
Doomed if you do, doomed if you don't. That describes Dark's situation quite clearly, ne?
So far away I see the truth
I see through you
Now that I know the way you play
I don't want to
Dark missed the beautiful voice that brought him to the human realm. Sure it was Daisuke's voice and he had found him. But that doesn't mean Dark had heard Daisuke sing yet. Daisuke doesn't sing. He thinks he can't sing well, but Dark knows it's not true. Will Daisuke ever sing for Yami? For Dark? The beauty of Daisuke's voice would captivate him and make him fall into a trance. Who knows what it can make him do?
Okay, so maybe listening to Daisuke's singing would bring some consequences. But Dark can't take it anymore without inspiration. It seems like he didn't get any progress into making Daisuke tell Yami about Dark. Dark sighed. There was a new song that he liked, one that he knew some lyrics. Unaware of what he was doing, Dark softly sang the song to Daisuke.
"Walking away I see the pain
you put me through
Lost in your game to change the same
Forever gone, forever you"
Daisuke heard some singing. The voice was filled with pain and emotion and was beautiful. Daisuke's ears perked up and he looked around to see who was singing. Seeing nobody but himself and Yami, he glanced at Yami's face. Yami's eyes were clouded with sadness and his lips were moving. He was singing! To Daisuke!
Yep, Yami can help Daisuke to be happy again.
A/N: First Interlude! The song only had five verses and I was lazy. This is before Yami's birth. If there's no song I can find, I'll just start another fic.
