Like we're boyfriend and girlfriend, right?
Chapter 3: Staying Over Part 1 - First Day
Months since the first date and everything has gone well for Daisuke and Hikari who truly began to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Both enjoy their presence although some would say they have been having a safe relationship.
And they didn't mind such a progression, but of course that progression needed to move one way or another.
Daisuke was vacuuming his living room as V-mon sat on the couch. Daisuke currently has some gauze around his left wrist. He injured it while he was selling noodles and the cart brakes weren't on properly. He stopped it from colliding with anything, but as a cost, his wrist bent.
Currently, out of commission from selling noodles until his wrist heals, Daisuke was simply at home.
The cleaning though was for another reason.
"Daisuke-san, I can help," V-mon said.
Daisuke smiled, "it's okay Vee, my wrist doesn't hurt as much when I vacuum. Thank you for asking–" and suddenly the doorbell rang. Daisuke blinked in confusion and said, "you can go get that if you want."
V-mon sighed and got up from his seat, "and if it's something selling something."
Daisuke chuckled, "as long as it's not perfume, you don't have to slam the door," he continued to vacuum, as he lightly moved the table to get whatever was underneath. Once done with that area, he moved the table back in place before hearing a familiar voice.
"Don't you look so cute cleaning," he turned over to see Miyako Inoue and Ken Ichijouji including their Digimon.
Daisuke turned off the vacuum, "I thought you guys were going to pick up Hikari-san?"
Miyako looked around the home for a bit, "we were, but that was a long time from now." She went over to the stand where the television was held up and traced her finger on it. "Impressive on keeping the place clean."
Daisuke glared a bit, "did you come here to judge my home?"
Miyako shook her head, "I came over to make sure it was welcoming for Hikari-san."
Daisuke looked away with a reddened face, "she's not moving in, she's only visiting for a week." He looked over to see Miyako with a curious brow raised and smirking. "What?" He asked before his face went red, "What!?"
Miyako whistled, "nothing."
Ken chuckled nervously before saying, "we knew you were cleaning up the place. We just came to help since you have an injured wrist and all."
Daisuke took a look at the cast, "I'm not crippled from doing anything."
V-mon then let out, "he struggled to make pasta. He almost burned the meal and I was going to need to eat from a can."
Daisuke's eye twitched, "that was more because I wasn't paying attention than it was… you know what nevermind," he lowered his head and then looked at Miyako and Ken, "make yourselves at home," he said with a small smile.
Hawkmon, Wormmon and V-mon all went to another room as the three current Chosen Children gathered around the living room.
Miyako went over with some paper towels and began to clean the cabinets nearby. "Miyako-san…" Daisuke said as he stopped the vacuum.
"I am just helping," Miyako said before fully committing to cleaning the cabinet where Daisuke put various pictures of himself and the group.
Daisuke glanced over at Ken Ichijouji who could only shrug. Daisuke continued to vacuum until he finally completed the entire living room. He stopped the machine and looked over to see Miyako wiping the photos.
Daisuke looked over at Ken who seemed to be cleaning the kitchen a bit as he wiped down the tables.
"I'm not that messy," Daisuke said, unplugging the vacuum.
Miyako snorted, "Come on Daisuke-san, I know things are usually said subtly, but we've been friends to know what's going on."
Daisuke rolled the wiring and began to wheel the vacuum away, "which is?"
Miyako turned with a smirk, "you know Hikari-san wants to move in with you."
Daisuke's eyes didn't widen, he looked away and said, "we've been dating for only a month…"
Miyako shrugged, "and we've been friends for much longer. Come on, barring the kisses, you two were practically dating before you became official." She continued to clean as Daisuke went over to his hallway closet to put away the vacuum.
Daisuke went to grab a duster and went back to television to dust the screen, "I don't want her to make a mistake…"
Miyako couldn't help but roll her eyes and say, "Okay Daisuke-san, we need to talk about this… being a perfect boyfriend. Fine, 'perfect doesn't exist', you feel special saying that generic line? Look, listen, Hikari chose you. You weren't a second option or a last resort. She chose you. Okay."
Daisuke looked very unsure.
Miyako groaned loudly, "that look…"
Daisuke looked up at her, "what look?"
Miyako put the rag beside her and said, "the 'she could have chosen better' look. I saw it on the double date and if Hikari-san wasn't there, I would have told you the same thing. You need to stop comparing yourself. I know we did a stupid little cutest Chosen Child, but being low on the list doesn't mean you're not cute… you're quite cute."
Daisuke rubbed his arm as Miyako walked around him, "you are very mannered and very proper. You have done all the right things in the relationship. Proven any doubts wrong. She isn't making a mistake."
Daisuke and Miyako were face to face. Both looking each other in the eye. Daisuke rubbed the back of his neck and said, "okay, fine, she isn't making a mistake."
Miyako pointed at him, "no self loathe. I know she isn't going to automatically move away, but don't cast doubts on yourself. If she doesn't want to live with you, she won't."
Daisuke shook his head with a smile as Ken could only shrug.
The three Chosen Children began to clean. Daisuke's home wasn't dirty as he pointed out, but the final touches were necessary to feel a bit cleaner. Mostly the dust from the corners no one would see.
Miyako took out some glasses and began to serve water. Daisuke and Ken were sitting in the dining room. "I got an offer to sell my noodles in America. In truth, I wanted to take it."
Ken tilted his head, "why didn't you? Wasn't America like a big fan of your performance in the BelialVamdemon fight?"
Daisuke was about to respond until Miyako came over with the glass of water. "Thank you," he first said then replied, "they were, but I want to like… revolutionize noodles in Japan first. Like conqueror Japan."
Miyako sat down, "all that growing up and you still use terms like conqueror."
Daisuke chuckled and nodded along. Then he and Ken looked over to see Miyako smirking. Daisuke got a bad feeling of what she was going to say, "have you and Hikari-san, like…"
Daisuke got red as did Ken. Daisuke said, "Miyako-san…"
Miyako shrugged with a smirk, "I just… I'm just curious cause I want to give you tips. I live with Ken-san and…"
Daisuke rubbed the bridge of his nose before saying, "no, we haven't."
Miyako nodded as Ken looked over at her, wondering what else she was going to say, "do you have a condom…?" Miyako said. Daisuke hit his hand on the table making Miyako flinch as he took a glass of water quickly to drink. "Daisuke-san, you could have said you wanted advice."
"I thought you would say something like… don't rush or…" Daisuke rubbed his head as Ken couldn't help but chuckle at this. "Isn't it too early for that type of thing."
Miyako sighed, "I am just trying to keep you and Hikari-san safe… and look… boundaries don't have set times. It's more dependent on the couple."
Daisuke took a sip remembering the things Sora once said, "So this is why you came over? To give me relationship therapy or something. Did Hikari-san like to talk about this? Am I a bad partner?"
Miyako frowned a bit, "no!" She then adjusted her composure and looked down. "She is nervous too." Daisuke raised a brow as Miyako sighed, "she is as nervous as you probably are. She doesn't want to rush things, but we'll say for privacy sake… she doesn't mind going further than what you two are used to right now." From this, Daisuke looked down in shock and realization. "Don't tell her I told you, I just know Hikari-san never dated anyone else like this and…"
Daisuke looked at Miyako seriously and answered back, "no, I get it. Look this is all personal and stuff, but I told Ken some similar advice once." Daisuke and Ken looked at each other with a knowing smirk. "I'll take what you said into consideration."
Miyako looked at Daisuke curiously, "and…?"
Daisuke closed his eyes and smiled, "and I'll see what I can do. Look, it's nice you want to tell me things Hikari-san has been struggling with. I do want her to try to talk to me about it. At the very least, let her bring up the moving in conversation. But… the intimacy… for the intimate moments, I'll see what I can do."
Miyako smiled, comfortable with what he had just said.
Ken then added, "we got two hours until Miyako-san is going to pick up Hikari-san. Got a movie you wanna watch?" Ken said, taking a sip of his water.'
Hikari finished zipping up her backpack as she took a deep breath. "Hey," Hikari heard a voice as she turned over to see Tailmon standing on the doorway. "So… you're actually going…"
Hikari smiled lightly, "Tailmon, you know I wanted to spend time with him."
Tailmon's tail whirled around, "you do spend time with him. You have been with him almost every day."
Hikari sat on the bed and gave Tailmon a look, "do you not like him?"
Tailmon wagged her tail a bit and then said, "I don't know. I don't hate him… obvious. He's the hero, but I don't know. I guess I didn't like the way he acted when he was younger."
Hikari's hand clenched as she said, "he was so young. I mean…"
Tailmon sighed and replied, "I looked into what humans are into. And I have heard of guys who are… mean… to their girlfriend. I don't want him to be using you." She walked to the bed and sat beside Hikari, "I don't know. I guess I don't trust him."
Hikari lowered her head, "you trust me?"
Tailmon looked over at her, "it's not that I don't trust you. I know you're going to say that you trust him, but look… I don't know him that well. At most, I think he and I shared two conversations… a year." Tailmon crossed her arms and looked away.
Hikari frowned a bit and asked, "Is it because I didn't date Takeru-san?"
Tailmon took a deep breath, "I know I shouldn't care, but maybe a part of me wanted for everything to be pitch perfect. I thought about how cool and romantic Takeru-san and you would be. The couple that was supposed to happen…" She looked down, "then you never asked him out and next thing I know… you instead asked Daisuke-san out."
Hikari took a deep breath, "Tailmon… I did like Takeru-san, but it just wasn't going to work out. We wanted so many different things…"
Tailmon looked away, "it's not like Daisuke-san is the same as you."
Hikari took a deep breath, "I couldn't choose Takeru-san. He just wasn't the type of person I wanted to be with. Daisuke-san was. I don't think Takeru-san is bad or anything. He didn't do anything wrong. He wasn't foolish or idiotic or anything… but I couldn't see myself liking him."
Tailmon closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "I don't hate you dating him either. I just don't trust him. I guess I'm afraid he is going to be everything I feared. I guess it's because I don't spend time with V-mon. But, Patamon and I have spoken so much. Takeru-san just seemed right for you."
Hikari looked up, "I'm sorry for not telling you that I was going to ask out Daisuke-san. If I knew… how you felt. I would have told you so we could talk. I didn't know you cared this much."
Tailmon glanced over, "I don't care about the relationship. You're happy. I don't know. I feel scared because Daisuke-san… dating him… everything feels so new. I just don't know… what if he pushes his boundaries? What if he is just all over you? What if he does things that you can't imagine he would do?"
Hikari looked down at her knees and asked, "what if I want him to do all those things?"
Tailmon could only stare in shock from this. Her ears lowered, "I'm just not used to him being your boyfriend…" she could only say as Hikari stood up.
Hikari grabbed some items from her desk and placed them in different parts of her bag. "You can come if you want. I would like the important people in my life to get along, but I am not going to force you. If you don't want to like Daisuke-san or want me to be with him, that's fine. But he makes me happy…"
Tailmon could only watch as Hikari took out her phone and said, "Miyako-san is here."
Tailmon then watched Hikari walk out of her room.
Hikari stopped and took a deep breath, she glanced back for a moment. Then looked forward and went on her way. Her mind is now on Tailmon, her Digimon and best friend, not liking Daisuke dating her.
Her frown disappeared when she stepped outside of her family's apartment. She smiled looking down to see Miyako inside her vehicle.
She took quick steps down the stairs and finally arrived at the vehicle, immediately entering the passenger seat. "Alright." Miyako gave her a smile, but didn't drive. Hikari blinked, "w-what?"
Miyako looked at the road and said, "Excited about staying over with Daisuke-san?" She began to drive.
Hikari got a little flustered, "I am just excited cause he's my boyfriend… and come on, you were excited when you moved in with Ken-san."
"Moved in…" Miyako emphasized. "Not staying over and I moved in one year into becoming adults. Not one month."
Hikari raised his brow, "what are you saying? That I'm moving the relationship a bit fast."
"Fast? Maybe, it's more how you feel about all of this." Miyako looked at the road for a moment. "I trust him. I do. I trust you."
Hikari glanced over, "then why are you mentioning this like…"
Miyako smiled, "because you can't be unconfident anymore. That's why some people take their time. Sometimes the next step might not be comfortable. I mean are you…"
Hikari looked away for a bit and answered, "yes, very…" She looked at her knees with a smile, "I am very confident."
Miyako looked at Hikari for a moment and then replied, "well don't do too much in public."
Hikari giggled, "I won't… unless he wants to." Both women couldn't help but laugh.
The remainder of the car ride went smoothly. It seems any of Hikari's nerves were gone. Even the disappointment she faced when Tailmon didn't accept Daisuke's relationship with her faded. She was simply looking forward to seeing him.
The car soon parked in the driveway of his home. Suddenly, all the confidence disappeared and the nerves crept up. His home. Daisuke's home was always something she saw when she visited with others, but this home was something she was going to stay at.
She collected her nerves and moved forward, still excited.
Daisuke laid on his bed as he looked up at the ceiling. Time had passed, Miyako and Ken had finally left once bringing Hikari. He could hear Hikari still taking a shower in the bathroom before hearing the water turn off with the squeak from the knobs. He turned away from the door, not knowing why. Maybe manners or maybe nervousness.
It didn't take long before the door opened up. He didn't glance at it at first, but hearing Hikari call him out, "Daisuke?"
He slowly turned over to see Hikari standing there with a towel around her shoulder. She had on a short sleeved white top and running shorts. Daisuke ended up staring at her legs before turning over and feeling himself becoming flustered.
"I thought you fell asleep," Hikari said.
Daisuke responded quickly, "I was just resting. Long day…"
"I'll say, they're finally gone too," Daisuke could feel Hikari begin to lay on his bed. "We can finally start to be alone."
Daisuke smiled, "yeah." He then gasped when he saw her hand come across his shoulder. He turned to see her begin to slowly adjust herself to be hovering over him. He slowly turned until his back was laying on the bed. Looking up at Hikari who then slowly shifted to straddle him.
His cheeks went red as did hers, but she had a clear smile. "It's just me…"
Her hand went from his chest down to his abs before tracing her fingers upward to his chest.
Daisuke flinched and suddenly he became excited. He clenched onto the bed sheets and became flustered to the point where he turned away. And with a single "oh," from Hikari, Daisuke let out a shocked gasp.
He felt he was going to die from embarrassment before he heard her giggle. He turned over and saw her looking at him. "I told you, it's just me…"
Daisuke could feel his heart begin to slow to calmness. His tense body lowered, "sorry, we never done this before."
Hikari nodded in agreement before glancing at where she could feel him against her. "We've only made out and kissed." She then looked him in the eye, "but there was one time where you kissed me and your hand rubbed my leg…" she said with a soothing sigh right after, "I felt so… excited."
Daisuke's eyes widened and suddenly felt her shift so she could be sitting on his length comfortably.
"Daisuke-san." Hikari began to lower her upper body. "I know you're nervous, but can I…" her hands both felt on her abs over his shirt and suddenly began to dig underneath. Her fingers pressed on his skin.
Daisuke's cooled and laid back comfortably, "as you wish…"
Hikari was now smiling nervously. Suddenly she closed her eyes and opened her mouth slightly. Daisuke was slowly closing his eyes as she drew closer. His heart was beating intensely before he felt her lips touch his. At first, like always, they became comfortable. Both shifting until their lips could be nothing more than locked.
Then they shifted the other way, the kissing keeping its intensity. And slowly the shifts turned quicker. A moment where Hikari broke a kiss with her mouth open was enough opportunity. Daisuke kissed, this time with his tongue entering first. He used his tongue to pull Hikari back into the kiss with more vigor.
She moaned so happily into the kiss. Her hands from the bottom of his shirt began to gently, but firmly claw up. Exposing his nicely defined abs as she massaged it with her hands. She pressed onto them when she lifted his shirt up to almost his chest.
Their lips locked and their tongues danced. Both moaning into their kiss. Both of Daisuke's hands slid over Hikari's ass. He groped it intensely, his fingers pressing against it.
"Ah!" Hikari moaned out happily. She kissed Daisuke deeper in response, feeling his hand feel the shape of her buttocks.
She melted into the kiss and put her arms around Daisuke, almost locking them into the kiss.
Daisuke's left hand still felt her ass. His hand squeezing and shifting around as Hikari happily moaned from it. His other hand slid to her shirt and began to slowly lift. Soon, both their abs were rubbing against each other. The softness of her torso against his and his hand rubbing her ass made Hikari's head spin.
To control herself, she reached back to grab his wrist that still wanted to touch her more. Not tugging or pushing, but allowing herself to see how he touched. Every time he gently raked her soft ass, her grip would loosen and rub his wrist. It was her way, through the kiss, telling him how much she liked it.
His other hand after pulling her shirt up a bit to her chest rested on her back. His hand rubbing and tracing around her back.
Both their minds were in different places. Daisuke was thinking about how soft she was. Hikari was thinking about how good she felt. Selfish and Selfless emotions running wild. But despite having different feelings towards their make-out session, the kissing and touching was still in sync.
The kisses broke naturally, but no words were exchanged. Not even look, they were simply enjoying each other. At one point, they feel asleep in each other's arms. Daisuke didn't expect this, but they were getting much closer.
