Satoshi and I ate lunch, even though I was a little reluctant he still made me. He said I needed to keep up my strength. We spent the rest of the afternoon studying and talking. We were in the living room watching television when my mom burst through the door and I stood up with a start.
"Hey, mom how are you?" I asked as she squeezed me in a big bear hug. All the breath in my body left in a big whoosh. "Mom. Can't. Breath." I gasped when she let go of me. Her eyes where shimmering with tears.
"Oh, Daisuke I'm so sorry about Dark. I saw it on the news at the mall." My mom pulled me into another hug, but she didn't hug me as hard. I don't know what came over me. I started to cry again. My mom held me and whispered promises in my hair that I couldn't understand. Satoshi went up the stairs while my mom held me while I cried. I was glad that he gave us some privacy. My mom led me to the couch and we sat down. My eyes started to hurt and I probably looked like Rudolf the red nose reindeer. My mom rocked me and I felt like a little kid again. My mom always use to rock me like this whenever I came crying to her. "It's going to be all right. Don't worry my darling. It all will work out." My mom's words rang true and I had some odd feeling that it would all work out, but right now I couldn't focus on that nagging part of my brain that begged me to remember what Dark asked me to remember. I continued to cry for some time until my tears ran dry.
"Mom." My voice was raw and it felt like my throat was on fire.
"Yes?" My mom pulled away from and looked into my eyes. There were dry tears marks on her face and I hugged her again.
"Can Satoshi spend the night?"
"Of course and maybe you shouldn't go to school tomorrow. I think that you can afford to take some personal time."
"No that's fine. School helps distract me and I don't want to think right now."
"Okay, but if you want to stay home all you have to do is say the word."
"I know. Thank you."
"Anything for my Daisuke," My mom said and walked into the kitchen to start dinner. It was already six. Where did the time go?
I trudged up the stairs and went to my room. Satoshi was sitting on my bed playing with Wiz. I couldn't help, but smile at the two of them. Satoshi had a small smile on his lips and I felt better that he was here. I wish that Dark was here though. I immediately stopped all my thoughts right there. I'm not going to think about that right now. I have other things to do. Dark smiling face appeared in front of my eyes and I went weak in the knees with the image. I shook my head to get rid of the image. I didn't think I could cry anymore. I'm not sure if I have any tears left, but every time I think that there's more ready to fall.
"Are you okay?" Satoshi's voice jarred me out of my thinking. I looked at him and he had a frown on his face. "Come sit down here." Satoshi got up and walked over to me. He gently grabbed my arm and took me over to my bed. He sat down and I followed his example. I sat with a plop.
"I'm so sorry Satoshi," I said hanging my head. I felt horrible.
"Daisuke stop that," Satoshi said his voice was sharp. I glanced at him through my bangs he looked angry. "I'm here because I want to be okay?" I nodded. "This whole mess is because of that stupid Risa. She had to know something like this would happen unless she really is that stupid. And to think you use to have a crush on her." Satoshi huffed and turned his head away from me. I started to feel a funny bubbling sensation start up in my chest. I laughed. Whoa! I wasn't sure when I would do that again. Satoshi's eyes flashed to my face and his eyes brows rose in surprise.
"I know how could I ever like her?" I couldn't stop laughing. This is my breaking point. I have finally gone crazy. Before I knew it Satoshi was laughing right along with me.
"I don't understand why her?" Satoshi asked between fits of laughter. I was clutching my stomach, it hurt so much.
"I don't know. I thought she was the most beautiful thing there was."
"Your crazy."
"I know." I felt a smile curve my lips and I felt better. "Thank you," I said. Satoshi peered at me with surprise covering his features. He didn't even try and hide it. Huh, it's odd Satoshi is starting to show his feelings around me.
"For what?" He asked baffled. How could he not know?
"For being here for me. There are no words to express how I feel."
"You shouldn't thank me," Satsohi mumbled. It was my turn to be surprised.
"Why?" I asked not understanding. Satoshi's voice was low and I could barely make out what he was saying.
"Because my intentions aren't so noble."
"What are you talking about?" I tilted my head to the side. Satoshi looked up at me.
"Daisuke part of the reason I'm with is because now I have my chance to try and be with you." Satoshi winced and I stared at him blankly. What?! Wait what? Satoshi wants to be with me. I guess Dark was right about Satoshi, but it's so hard to believe.
"Huh?"
"Daisuke I like you." I stayed silent and had no idea what to say.
"Oh," Was all I said and I continued to gaze at Satoshi.
"I'll take my leave now." Satoshi started get up and I grabbed onto his arm.
"Wait don't go."
"I'll stay if your not uncomfortable."
"I'm not I swear." My mom called for us to go down to dinner and at the same moment the phone began to ring. "You can go down. I'll answer the phone." Satoshi nodded and started to make his way to the door. I answered the phone that was in my room. "Hello?"
"Dai-chan," Dark said on the other end of the line. My heart stopped and I forgot how to breath.
"Dark?" Satoshi stopped in the door way and my heart and breathing remembered how to function especially when it had something to do with Dark.
