Dark Heart Chapter Four

Chapter Four

Krad smirked leaning against the wall of the room Dark escaped from. “So he’s still in love with me…after all this time.” Krad let his fingers touch his lips, it felt good to have Dark’s on his again. He didn’t realize how much he missed Dark’s touch until now.

-What was that about?.-
=Nothing you would understand.=
-…-

Krad shifted. Blond hair shortened and turned blue. Cold blue eyes stayed the same. Satoshi blinked a few times, could it be that Krad loved Dark still? Only time could tell this one.

~*~*~

Dark leaned against a tree panting hard. He winced slightly in pain from his bleeding hand.

“Stupid! God I'm so stupid! Why did I tell him?” Dark asked to nothing but himself and the night.

/Dark…you did what you had too./
//Daiii~suuu~keee! It’s not what I wanted to do! I never wanted him to know!//
/You love him…you should have told him./
//What about you? Why don’t you tell the person you love that you love them?//
/Because I don’t know who I love./
//Well, what are your choices?//
/Riku-san and…and…/
//And?//
/…and…Hiwatari-kun./
//Tough decision.//

Daisuke shook his head and pushed himself away from the tree. Sometimes, it was so useless talking to Dark… Daisuke usually ended up confused in the end.

~*~*~

Ah, school had ended finally! Daisuke thought that school would never end. Satoshi walked up behind Daisuke and tapped him on the shoulder. Startled, Daisuke looked back.

“Niwa-kun can we talk about… what’s going on?”

“Huh?” Daisuke’s mind didn’t seem to register what Satoshi was talking about.

Satoshi looked a Daisuke a moment, a bit on the awkward side. Leaning down he whispered in Daisuke’s ear, “Though we really shouldn’t be talking about it here, how about coming over to my apartment in a little while?”

//That’s an offer if I ever heard one!//
/Daaaark! You pervert!/

Daisuke blushed while Dark snickered in the back of his mind. Satoshi smiled, a rare action for the blue haired boy. He slightly wondered what the thief had said to get Daisuke to blush this time. “Alright Hiwatari-kun, I’ll be over in a little bit.” Daisuke said after a few moments of silence.

Satoshi nodded and walked out of the classroom, turning back only to catch one last glimpse of Daisuke. Daisuke blushed brighter.

“Daisuke-san.” A familiar voice sounded from behind him.

“Yes Riku-san?”

“I was wondering… if you… wanted to go out and do something tonight?” Riku hesitantly asked.

//Oh she’s asking you out on a date. How cute!//
/Hey, Dark can you shut up for 5 minutes?/
//Nope!//
/I hate you sometimes./
//Ah you know you love me Daisuke-chan!.//
/Shut up!/

“Sure, that would be great.” Daisuke said sweetly.

Riku smiled. “I’ll see you around 7 then? Meet me at my house.”

“Okay. I’ll see you at 7.”

~*~*~

Satoshi sat and stared blankly at the wall. Krad had been keeping to being silent lately. Satoshi really didn’t care… but it was… odd not having Krad to harass him at every waking moment. Consistency. Consistency was what Satoshi ran on, but lately things have been thrown way off course.

The doorbell rang.

“Niwa-kun must be here.” Satoshi said to the empty hollows of his apartment. The blue haired boy stood up and casually walked over to his door and opened it up. “Hello Niwa-kun.”

“Hello!” Daisuke said brightly.

“Come in and have a seat.” Satoshi stepped aside and let Daisuke walk in.

/He really doesn’t have much./
//You’re just used to having a lot.//
/What’s that suppose to mean?/
//Nevermind.//

Daisuke took a seat on the couch, Satoshi settled down beside him. The two regarded each other in silence, until Daisuke spoke, “So… Hiwatari-kun what did you mean you wanted to talk about what was going on?”

“About our other halves.” Satoshi stated. “I want to know why Dark said ‘I’m still in love with you’ to Krad last night.”

“Oh that.”

“Do you know anything?” Satoshi’s voice had some hint of interest in it.

Daisuke leaned back against the back of the couch. “I asked Dark about it, he said a long time ago Krad and he were,” a slight cough and a blush from Daisuke, “…lovers, then Dark disappeared. When Dark reappeared, I suppose Krad had found someone else and Dark got jealous…”

“…and started a fight.” Satoshi finished Daisuke’s thought.

“Exactly.”

“This is starting to make some more sense now.” Satoshi nodded to himself.

Daisuke turned suddenly and looked straight at Satoshi, “Do you think… think that Krad still loves Dark?”

“He may. I don’t really know.”

“Oh…” Daisuke glanced at the clock. “I better get going it’s getting late…”

Satoshi nodded silently and stood up. Daisuke stood up as well and made his way to Satoshi who was already at the door. Daisuke reached out for the door handle, but before he could reach it his wrist was grabbed and he was pulled very close to the taller boy. Satoshi gathered his courage, he was tired of pretending. “Daisuke… forgive me for this…” he whispered before capturing Daisuke’s lips with his.

//Woo hoo! Three cheers for the blue haired bastard!//
/You-you’re cheering him on?/
//Well why the Hell not? Kiss him back you might like it.//
/DARK!/
//Well?//
/…/

Daisuke’s lips started to move against Satoshi’s. Satoshi drew back quickly, his cheeks were a bit flushed and so were Dasiuke’s. “Satoshi I-I…” Daisuke swallowed.

“You better get going.”

Daisuke nodded. “Yeah, I suppose. Good bye.”

“Bye."

Satoshi didn’t have to pretend so much anymore.

~*~*~

Daisuke stood at the door nervously and rang the bell. Moments later a girl with short reddish-brown hair answered.

“Ready Riku-san?”

“Yup, lets go.”

~*~*~

Daisuke smiled and looked at Riku, the date was nice and all but really they didn’t talk or do much. Actually the date was down right boring.

“I had a good time tonight Daisuke-san.” Riku said when she reached her door.

//Sure she did, she didn’t say hardly anything the entire time!//

“I did too.” So Daisuke decided to lie he really didn’t want to hurt Riku’s feelings.

//Liar.//
/Shut up, I don’t want to hurt her./

Riku smiled nervously, “So, I guess this is good night then.” She said moving in closer to Daisuke.

“Yes, I’ll see you tomorrow then?” Daisuke blinked at Riku’s sudden closeness.

“Tomorrow. Good night Daisuke-san.” Riku tilted her head slightly, moving in a lot closer to Daisuke.

//She’s going to kiss you, you know that right?//
/What?/

Daisuke turned his head slightly causing Riku to kiss him on the cheek. Riku looked at Daisuke with a slightly odd expression on her face. “I’m sorry.” Daisuke muttered. “Good night Riku-san.” Daisuke turned and walked away without looking back.

//You blew it.//
/…huh?/
//At not hurting her feelings.//
/I know./

Daisuke sighed and walked home. He was confused to say the least.
