Epilogue: Looking for Something?

He was flying across the rooftops, silver stars resting in a giant expanse of deep blue velvet sky above him. The city below was shrouded in an eerie light emanating from the moon. He could see small lights in some windows. They were few; most of the world was in a deep sleep. The night was his. Wind rushed past his elegant black wings, ruffling silken feathers gently. He revelled in the freedom of flight, savouring the cool feel of the wind against his face.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

"Nnnn," Daisuke leaned over a head of blue hair to mindlessly hit the alarm clock. To his surprise, and annoyance, the beeping sound didn't stop. He sat up in bed and stared dumbly at the machine. "Huh?"

"It's my watch. The actual alarm went off over an hour ago," a calm voice came from beside him.

"Over…an…hour…ago?" Daisuke slowly looked from the clock to his lover, who was turning off his watch sleepily, and back to the clock. The numbers suddenly registered in Daisuke's brain with alarming clarity. 8.03am.

"Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrhhhh!!" Daisuke jumped out of bed and ran down the hallway.

"Baka," Satoshi smiled affectionately as he pulled himself out of bed and rummaged around for a jumper. He could hear Daisuke bashing and clanging around the apartment doing God knows what. He pulled a deep blue jumper over his head in a leisurely fashion and headed towards the kitchen.

Satoshi was still struck by the bright colours that now decked the walls of his once bleak apartment. It was at least a year ago that he and Daisuke had painted it all but each time he saw it still amazed him. There was a large mural on one wall, which everyone commented on as soon as they walked into the apartment. It depicted the town fountain in the foreground, with the silver moon in the deep night sky behind, shimmering on the water. Snow was falling gently, and in the very background you could just make out two figures with wings, flying into the distant clouds.

"Why didn't you wake me!?" Daisuke implored his boyfriend from the kitchen. Satoshi merely shrugged as he leaned over and switched the kettle on.

"You refused to wake up… like usual," was the simply and always elusive reply. Daisuke had never noticed how much in tune he had become to understanding Satoshi's odd ways until he met other, dare I say, normal couples.

Daisuke rolled his eyes as he grabbed an apple and sprinted back to the bedroom to get changed. He knocked a photo frame from the bedside table as he carelessly threw on jeans and a shirt.

"Hm?" he leaned down and picked it up. Inside was a picture that had been taken at New Year in Daisuke's backyard. It was quite an odd photo as far as photos go. Daisuke had accepted the fact that his family was just weird. Towa-chan and his grandfather, Daiki, were standing there smiling happily at the camera. Towa-chan was still wearing her outrageous maid outfit, and was doing a peace sign with her hand, whilst Daiki's hair still stood at odd angles.

Meanwhile Emiko was glaring sullenly at Satoshi. She still hadn't come to grips with the fact that Satoshi wasn't as evil as his counterpart. Kosuke had a comforting, and restraining, hand placed on his wife's shoulder. Kira was rolling her eyes at Satoshi who was holding her younger sister Tatyana in his arms. Tatyana had just up ended a cup of water on Satoshi's head…despite the fact that it was snowing outside, and below zero degrees. Daisuke had an arm around Satoshi's waist and was laughing at the odd look on his face.

There was an amazing sunset in the background, the reason why everyone had braved the cold to take a photo in the backyard. Snow was gently falling from the sky, just as it had when Dark had left.

Wait… for a split second, Daisuke could swear he saw Dark and Krad standing behind them in the photo. Krad was lounging on the wall in the background, Dark stood above him with his arms wrapped around the white angel's neck. Dark was smiling straight at the camera, a glint in his eyes, while Krad merely smirked. We are happy waiting for you both… a voice echoed through Daisuke's mind. Suddenly the two faded and the picture was just as it had been before.

"Wait!" Daisuke breathed. He looked around the room, waking up to reality. No matter how much he called to his other entity, Dark wasn't coming back.

Sighing, Daisuke tenderly picked the photo frame up and placed it back on the table.

"Dai-chan! You're going to be even later than you already are if you don't get a move on!" Satoshi's voice woke him from his reverie.

Daisuke skidded around the corner into the living room, madly looking for his bag. He turned to Satoshi who, well ahead of him, was holding the bag.

"T-thank you……I think…," Daisuke smiled, taking the bag, full of art supplies and notes. Poor Daisuke still got surprised by Satoshi's innate ability to know what he, and the rest of the world, was talking about.

"You'd better run if you want to catch the 8:15," the blunette smiled, and looked around at the sound of a closing door.

"Good morning all …Good Lord, Daisuke, what are you still doing here?" Kira yawned, moving sluggishly towards the kettle.

"Good morning, Kira, it's already boiled. Daisuke slept in a little," Satoshi smirked at the boy who was panicking.

"Damn! My class started five minutes ago!" Daisuke hurriedly looked for his house keys.

"Well…you'd better run then…" Satoshi chuckled.

"…You're so unhelpful!" Daisuke huffed. He felt something clinging to his legs. Looking down he found a little face smiling back at him. "Hehe, good morning Tatyana, but I have to leave now."

"Mm, you working today Satoshi?" Kira asked as she pulled a bowl out of the draw and handed it to Tatyana who gave a small thank you in English. They heard the front door slam.

"Yeah, I'm still writing that damn report for the Tetsua Case up," Satoshi groaned. Kira laughed at his misfortune until Satoshi gave her an I'm-going-to-throw-this-teacup-at-you-any-second-now look. Rolling his eyes he picked up a train ticket lying on the bench.

"Isn't that-?" Kira asked, rolling her eyes as Satoshi nodded.

Satoshi smiled as he opened the door, ticket in hand. A very puffed Daisuke was standing on the doorstep, with a surprised look on his face. His hand was raised, suggesting that Satoshi had opened the door just a little too early.

"Looking for something?" Satoshi grinned. Daisuke glared at the obvious pleasure Satoshi was taking in this.

"Hn," was the only reply he offered, taking the ticket from Satoshi. He turned to leave again when suddenly he felt something gripping his wrist, and he was pulled back to face Satoshi.

"By the way, happy valentine's day Dai-chan," Satoshi smirked, kissing the stunned boy who could not possibly remember what day it was, if he couldn't even remember his train ticket.


A/N:
Yes I took a long time to make an epilogue, mainly because I'm lazy, and secondly because school doesn't like me much. Oh well, hope you liked it. It was a short nonsensical nothing really, but I thought I had better do something. Sorry for my lack of enthusiasm. And I know it's not very obvious but Daisuke and Satoshi are probably about 19-20ish now. Don't ask me why Kira is living with them, because I truly don't know. It's just more fun that way.

Happy Valentines Day to anyone who celebrates it!

Edit: I can't believe I made it to the end of this story. Yay!
