Twist of Fait

TK woke up to find Ken still sleeping peacefully with his arm draped
over his chest somewhat possessively






TK woke up to find Ken still sleeping peacefully with his
arm draped over his chest somewhat possessively. He stifled a small laugh as he
watched his lover.

 

‘He looks so perfect no matter if he’s awake or not. I still
say he looks like a sweet little child when he’s sleeping, but I think I still
like him better when he’s awake. That’s a hard battle. I guess I love him both
ways.’ TK shrugged slightly and focused on Ken’s closed eyelids. ‘To think
those only hold back to beautiful eyes that lie behind them.’ TK sighed.

 

A minute later Ken started to move around and then he opened
his eyes and to see TK’s blue ones staring at him.

 

“I could get used to that. Waking up everyone morning to see
you. It’s too perfect, like a dream.” Ken smiled.

 

“A dream come true, Kenny baby. Come on, let’s a take a
shower get get cleaned up. After that I’ll see if I can find anything to eat in
this place.”

 

He nodded and they both entangled themselves from each other
and the bed sheets. They picked up some clean clothes and headed for the
bathroom.

 

TK started the water and turned around to face Ken. “Hop in.
It’s all set.”

 

Ken stepped in, pulling TK with him and they both stood
under the gushing water.

 

“Want me top wip with that?” Ken asked when he saw TK
reaching for the shampoo bottle.

 

TK smiled and handed it to him. Shivering under Ken’s touch
as he massaged the soap into his hair.

 

“Mmmm, TK, your hair’s so soft. I love it almost as much as
I love you. But then again, almost doesn’t count because I love everything part
and thing about you.”

 

“I love you too, Kenny sweetie.” TK closed his eyes and
waited for Ken’s signal to slip back under the water and let the soap wash
away.

 

A few minutes later, “Okay, you can wash it off now.

TK stepped under the water and felt the sudsy substance slip
down his neck to his shoulders and down the rest of his body.

 

Ken pulled him back towards him and started to spread body
wash over him. He started at his arms and moved to his shoulders and down his
chest to his abdomen, stopping periodically to massage a sensitive spot that he
knew TK loved. He filled his hands with some more soap and took TK’s penis in
his hands, rubbing up and down softly, feeling it harden under his touch.

 

“Oh, baby, I think you’re getting a small problem. Whatever
will we do about it?” Ken asked in an innocent tone.

 

“You could help me fix it. Pleeeese.” He asked in an
innocent tone as well but it turned into whining once he kept getting harder.

 

“I suppose I could.” Ken replied squeezing his manhood
harder and stroking it faster.

 

“Ohhhhh, Ken…so good…” TK lost his voice and all he could do
was moan at every touch he received, increasing the sensation he was feeling.

 

Too soon to TK he came in Ken’s hand but was easily washed
away by the water still coming down around them.

 

They held each other close and TK helped to wash Ken off as
he did, but without any other pleasant distractions.

 

They dried off and got dressed, than headed out to the
kitchen and found a note placed on the table under the napkin holder.

 

TK

 

I headed out to work already. I trust you slept well, Ken
too. I’ll call at about noon to make sure everything’s ok. Be sure you remember
to lock up if you go somewhere. Have a fun day.

 

Mom

 

TK looked at the clock and it read 10:15. They had a couple
of hours to kill before his mother would call. He then smirked and reread the
last sentence of the note. ‘I’m sure I will have a fun day.’

 

TK looked over to see Ken poking around in the fridge and
pull out the container of milk. He pulled to glasses from the cupboard and set
them on the table. Ken poured the two glasses to about half way and than
replaced it back in the fridge.

 

A few minutes later the phone rang and TK went to answer it,
seeing the caller ID was from the Kamiyas.

 

“Moshi, moshi. This is TK speaking.”

 

“Hey, bro.” Matt answered from the other side of the line.
“Whatcha doing today?”

 

‘Weird; he sounded a little strained there. “Nothing much,
why?”

 

“Just wondering. Tai and I were going to go the park today
and was wondering if you’d like to come along.”

 

“Yeah, hold on a sec.” He covered the phone and looked at
Ken. “Want to go to the park today and hand with Matt and Tai?”

 

“Sure, it’s not like we had other plar anr anything.” Ken
answered sounding sarcastic but jokingly all the same.

 

He uncovered the phone. “Yeah, sure. What time?”

 

“Anytime’s fine. Take your time though. We’re going to head
over now.”

 

“Ok. See you later.” He hung up the phone.

 

“Want to go now?”

 

“Sure, why not?”

 

They both set out the door and TK locked it up as Ken pushed
the button for the elevator.

 

They ran over to the park and looked around.

 

“They should be here right now so keep an eye out for them.”
TK said.

 

Ken nodded and looked around until he caught sight of two
people on a bench. A closer look revealed that one had messy auburn hair and
the older slicked blonde hair. A little closer of a look showed them to be
kissing each other. He sighed and looked at TK and than continued to look for
about two seconds until he became stoned and all the color in his face drowned out.
He looked back at the bench and recognized the two people to be Matt and Tai!

 

“T…TK?” He tapped TK on his shoulder frantically, not taking
his eyes of the two on the bench.

 

“What?” TK said looking at him. He followed his eyes and saw
the two on the bench. He became stoned as well. He shook it off and took Ken’s
hand, dragging him towards the bench.

 

It seemed that his neither brother nor Tai was paying
attention to anything around them other than each other and their frantic
kisses.

 

‘Kind of reminds me of Ken and me, oblivious to everything
except each other and what we’re doing.’

 

He shook his head and tapped his brother cautiously on his
shoulder, causing him to jump and fall over the back of the bench. Tai gasped
and looked over the edge at him.

 

He then looked back over and was about to shout at their
distraction for doing that when he saw TK and Ken staring at them.

 

He helped Matt up from the ground not taking the eyes off
the couple. Matt saw Tai’s face as he absently brushed himself off and looked
too.

 

“TK!” He practically fell back over again, but didn’t. “I
can…well you see we…we were just…um…”

 

“Is this why you ran off when we told you guys?” TK
questioned.

 

Tai and Matt’s head fell down slowly and nodded even slower.

 

Tai looked up first. He had something in his eye…was
it…tears?

 

‘Why does he have tears in his eyes?’ Ken wondered and
looked to TK.

 

“We were ashamed I guess.” Tai said, seeing Matt’s nod of
agreement, continued. “When you two told us we were kind of embarrassed that we
didn’t say anything first. We’ve been going out for…how long now?”

 

Matt looked up; he had tears too. “For about five months. We
were surprised that we actually kept it a secret without anyone suspecting
anything. We didn’t know we could be so good at acting like nothing was going
on.”

 

“But…why? Were you expecting us to come and find you making
out on the park bench?” Ken was letting TK take control of all this since his
brother was involved. So he just kept quiet.

 

“No! We knew that Ken was staying with you for the week, TK,
so we thought that you wouldn’t come for at least a half an hour or so. Not
five minutes after we called.” He shivered; it was a bit cold out.

 

TK glanced at his watch; it read 10:45. He knew he had to be
getting back home before noon but didn’t want to keep glancing at his watch.
“Let’s go back to my place. We can at least get out of the cold that way and
get something warm to drink. Mom’s supposed to call at noon and this way I
won’t have to worry about missing it.”

 

The two nodded and walked behind the couple. It was a silent
walk though. Since they weren’t running it took about ten minutes to get back
to the apartment building and was 11:00 by the time they were in the warmth of
the apartment room.

 

He went into the kitchen with Ken as the other two sat on
the couch.

 

“They look nervous.” Ken said as he watched them from the
table as TK pulled from mugs from the cupboard.

 

“Probably just embarrassed. I mean, we would be too if we
kept our relationship a secret that long and than end up being scared to hell
and back when we were found out like that.”

 

“Yeah. That I know it right.”

 

Ken stood up and pulled out the cocoa mix as TK pulled the
hot cups out of the microwave.

 

As TK mixed the water and cocoa mix together Ken started to
rub himself against him.

 

“Ken…not now.” He whined, trying to sound serious even
though it felt really good.

 

“Aww, but sweetie, I’m cold. Don’t you want to warm me up? I
know you’ll do a better job than some stupid cup of hot chocolate.” Ken
continued, feeling his pants get a little tighter.

 

“Ken…no!” He shouted a little louder and heard the two from
the couch gasp a little. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down. He
finished mixing and turned around and saw Ken with a really hurt look in his
eyes as he leaned against the table. TK walked over to him and embraced him
tightly as he felt Ken cower a little at his touch.

 

‘Aw man! Great job, dumb ass, you hurt him! BAKA BAKA
BAKA! He probably thinks you’re going
to hurt him now or something! ARGH…Ok, calm down, TK. Just take a deep breath.’

 

“Ken?” He whispered. No answer. “Ken?” He asked a little
louder. He felt something warm splash on his neck. ‘Oh great, you MAJOR BAKA
JERK!!! HE’S CRYING!!’

He took another deep breath and tried again, pushing Ken
back and pushed his face up to meet his eyes. Sure enough Ken was crying, not
much but he was. “Ken, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to yell at you like that. I
just didn’t want to do anything with those two in the house, ok?” He asked,
still whispering a little.

Ken brushed his nose with his sleeve and nodded. TK kissed
the remaining tears softly away and was satisfied that no more were coming.

 

‘So far so good. At least he’s not crying. Now don’t blow
it.”

 

“There now, that’s better. I didn’t mean to hurt you
sweetie. I really am sorry if I scared you.”

 

Ken shook his head. “No, I’m sorry, TK. It’s just with
seeing those two in the park and I really am cold and…I’m sorry. I should’ve
stopped.”

 

“I know and it’s okay. I promise I’ll warm you up as soon as
they leave.”
sp; sp;

“You will?” Ken asked, completely cheered up all the way
now.

 

“Yup, but first let’s just have the hot chocolate and than
I’ll see what I can do after they leave…” seeing the little sulking look on
Ken’s face he realized he didn’t know how long that was going to be exactly.
“…But if you want you can snuggle if the cocoa doesn’t help.” He saw Ken
brighten up again. “As much as you want but no getting too physical ok. You
promise?”

 “I p“I promise.” He really meant it. He saw the mugs forgotten
on the counter and pointed to them. “Need help.”

 

“Oh, yeah. I completely forgot about them.” He handed two
cups to Ken and than took two for himself and led the way into the next room,
depositing his two in front of Tai and his brother.

 

“Sorry about the wait.” As said as he sat down in the chair
facing the couch and making room for Ken as he sat down.

 

He snuggled in tightly and placed the side of his head on
TK’s chest as he sipped his drink happily.

 

TK sighed and shook his head. ‘I never want to do that
again. I felt horrible for yelling at him like that.’ He whispered this into
Ken’s ears and saw him nod his head. He knew he was really happy and relieved
he hadn’t done anything permanent. He started to absentmindedly play with Ken’s
silken hair and looked at the two sitting on the couch.

 

“Are you going to tell the others lik did did?” TK asked.

 

“I guess, but I guess we’ll think about that later. My
parents are going out for a late dinner tonight for their anniversary and
Kari’s spending the night at Yolei’s so I guess we’ll talk than.” Tai
suggested.

 

“We’ll tell you when we’re going to say something though.”
Matt added.

“No problem. Our lips our sealed about anything and
everything we saw until you give us permission. We promise we won’t say a word
until you two say we can.” TK guaranteed for both hid Ked Ken, who was sipping
on his cocoa.

 

He saw Tai and Matt’s tension leave at the assurance and was
pleased to see they weren’t as upset as before. He took a sip of his drink now.


 

‘I think I like Ken’s taste a lot better than this sweet
stuff. It’s good but not as good as the one made especially for me. My Kenny
baby.’ He looked at him and continued playing and stroking his hair. ‘All
mine.’ He smiled again and took another sip.

 

They sat in silence after that until all the drinks were
done. Ken was asleep on TK’s lap from him playing and stroking his hair the way
he was. The phone rang and TK couldn’t move.

 

Matt looked at him when he wasn’t getting up and saw that
Ken had fallen asleep on him. He laughed a little and picked up the phone,
tossing it to TK.

 

With quick thanks he pushed the ‘talk’ button.

 

“Moshi, moshi. This is TK speaking.”

 

“Hello, honey.” His mother said from the opposite line.
“How’s everything?”

 

“Fine. Tai and Matt are over and Ken fell asleep. Other than
that it’s been quiet.”

 

“Okay, just making sure. Did you find something to eat?”

 

“Yeah, we had something.”

 

“Okay good. Well, I have to get going now. Say ‘hello
yo
your brother and Tai for me and I’ll see you maybe later tonight. If not I’ll
call.”

 

“Okay, mom. Bye.” He pushed the ‘off’ button and placed it
on the small table next to the chair. “Mom said ‘hello’.”

 MattMatt nodded and looked at Ken and than back at TK, glancing
at the small clock afterwards. “We should get going. Thanks for everything, little
bro.”

 

“No problem. At least it wasn’t Davis.”

 

Tai laughed and he could hear Matt mutter something along
the lines of ‘thank the gods for that.’ And than they were both gone.

 

 

 

TK sat there for a few more minutes, enjoying the silence
and the feel of Ken’s soft breathing of his chest going up and down.

 

‘I don’t think I’ll ever tire of this.’ TK thought to
himself happily. ‘No one will ever have you except me. That’s what I’m hoping.
I don’t know what I’d do if I lost you, my perfect angel. My Kenny boy.’

 

TK glanced at the clock and noted that it was closing in on
1:00. ‘Huh, it seems as though it should be later. Oh well.’

 

He began to shake Ken slightly to wake him up. “Hey, Kenny
baby, you need to wake up.”

 

Ken stirred a little and than cracked one eye open and than
the other. “What?” He asked in a muffled voice.

 

“It’s time to wake up. You fell asleep.”

 

“Did I?” He asked sitting up and rubbing his eyes.

 

TK wrapped his arms around Ken’s waist to keep him from
falling off the chair. “Yup, I’d say for a good hour or so.”

 

“Are you going to keep your promise?” He asked now fully
awake.

 

“You’re still cold?” TK asked sarcastically.

 

Ken put on an innocent puppy face and nodded playfully.

 

“Ok then, I’ll go make some tea than.” TK joked.

 

“TK! You promised.” Ken said going from loud to quiet in a
hurry.

 

“Ok come on, sweetie. I was just joking around.” He picked
up Ken and smiled smugly to himself as he felt his lover’s arms go around his
neck. “Now let’s ‘have a fun day’ as my mother put it in her note. I made a
promise and I’m going to keep it.”

 

Ken snuggled his face into TK’s shirt and breathed it in
deep. “You smell good.”

 

“I’m glad you like it. If you don’t remember you washed me
this morning.”

 

Ken nodded as he was placed gently on the bed.

 

TK started to pull Ken’s shirt off and than through it on
the floor and removed his own. Ken lay down on the bed with his arms lying
carelessly above his head. TK undressed both of them and than lay down on Ken.

“What’s the matter? About and hour or so ago you couldn’t
keep yourself off me.”

 

“I guess I just love admiring you when you have nothing on.
You look so flawless and perfect. It’s hard to believe that you’re mine when I
have the blood of innocents on my hands.” Ken closed his eyes and started to remember
the terror and destruction he had caused in the Digital World a few months
before. “All those Digimon. I can’t believe that I hurt them and I’m supposed
to be the Holder of Kindness.”

 

“Shhh. To me you look just as good as you say I do. What’s
in the past is behind us now. I care about you and I don’t like seeing you like
this. I’m yours forever to an end if that’s what makes you happy.”

 

Ken opened his eyes and had tears starting to fall. He loved
it when TK said things like this to him. He could forget all his worries and
think about those words for so long. He felt TK lean down and kiss up the tears
that remained on his cheek. “I’m so lucky to have someone like you, TK. I love
you so much. I never want you to go away.”

 

“And I never will if that is was you wish.”

 

Ken was so entranced by TK’s words he didn’t even feel TK
lift off him for a minute before he replaced himself again.

 

“All that blood, they’re just battle scars. You didn’t mean
to do them. Battle scars are all they are. They remain but it doesn’t mean it’s
your fault they’re there. You were pushed into it. You were only used, but we
took care of that. There’s nothing left aloMaloMyotismon or anyone. You have
Wormon and I have you, and that’s my life. To be there for you.”

 

Ken knew perfectly well that TK was only distracting him
from the pain of stretching. It worked perfectly well to. He knew the fingers
were doing their work but he didn’t feel them there. He felt them leave only to
be replaced by something bigger.

 

“I have you too. You’re my life now. And you have Patamon.”
Ken added clenching his teeth and curliis tis toes at the end when he felt
himself being penetrated.

 

TK brushed against his sensitive soft and he moaned in
pleasure and appreciation. TK thrust in a little harder every second and soon
enough he was deep inside of Ken, just what he wanted.

 

Ken wrapped his legs absently around TK’s waist. It had
happened again just like always. He would never forget this feeling nor would
he want to. He loves this feeling and wishes he could always be like this
forever, even though he knew it would come to an end. It was just he and TK and
what they were doing. They were just floating around in each other’s love and
passion, the care and effort for one another. All they could concentrate on was
each other’s eyes.

 

Ken loved drowning in those eyes. They were like hot springs
when he was determined but a gently creek whenever he was calm. Sometimes they
would be endless oceans or sometimes waterfalls when he was excited. Maybe even
puddles when he was sad or hurt. No, this time they were raindrops splashing on
the ground. They were gentle drops of water that wouldn’t hurt anyone. In fact,
those kinds of raindrops were the kinds people looked forward to in the spring.
The time of the year where things grow into beautiful plants or flowers.

 

TK was looking into Ken’s eyes as well. He knew Ken loved
his eyes and how he would always look into them. People always told him they
could tell how he felt by looking into his eyes. He guessed that was why nobody
asked him how he was feeling at all, his eyes told all. He wondered if people
told the same to Ken when he wasn’t with him. No, Ken’s eyes were like violet
flowers. Beautiful things that would never hurt anything, butld gld get easily
hurt when something stepped on them. Before, when he was the Digimon Emperor
all he saw when he looked in those eyes when his goggles were either on or off
were blazing fires. Things that wanted others to be destroyed whatever got in
it’s path or near it. It wasn’t an in control fire but a wild fire destroying
what it can and feed off that to grow stronger by the minute.

 

All to soon for them they both came together. They were back
in reality where life would always end up leaving them. They broke eye contact
as they panted heavily. TK lied back down on Ken, hearing his heart beat die
down with each breath as he caught it. He was lulled to sleep with that
heartbeat and the gentle up and down movements of his breaths when he inhaled
and than exhaled.

 

Ken fell asleep after he rolled over and felt TK slide in
next to him. He wrapped his arms around him tightly and then pulled the sheets
over them; once again falling to sleep where he loved most, in TK’s arms.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

“TK! What’s going on?” He was running after TK. Who was
seemingly just walking away.&nbs 

There was only darkness around them except for the
silvery fog that was seeping along the ground in endless directions. All he
could see was TK walking away. He knew he had, and was, run after him. He
didn’t know why though but he had the sense that something was wrong.

 

“TK, wait up!” Ken called again.

 

‘Why won’t he turn around? What’s going on?’ Ken asked
himself as he went faster. ‘It doesn’t matter how fast I make myself go he
still stays the same distance away. But I’m running and he’s walking, that
doesn’t make sense for me not to catch up. And why won’t he answer me?’

 

“TK!” He called louder this time.

 

He tripped over something and fell to his knees. He pushed
himself by his arms and that’s when he saw it.

 

TK turned around. His eyes were glassed over. They
weren’t showing anything, nothing he was used to. It was a split second, but
Ken saw everything he didn’t want to see go by…

 

…TK had disappeared into thin air. He just vanished
before Ken’s eyes.

 

“TK!” Ken called as loud as he could, but he knew it was
useless. He crawled into a little ball where he was and he cried. He cried
harder than he’d ever cried before in his life.

 

Ken started to feel colder than usual and he looked up
from his waterlogged lap to see the fog disappearing. The darkness was
dissolving into something…but what? He blinked and saw…

 

“TK!” Ken shouted aauncaunched himself at TK, noting the
worried look on his face and saw he started to cry too. He cried hard into his
lover’s shoulder and couldn’t stop.

 

“Shhh, Kenny honey, it’s all okay. Just try and calm down.”
TK pulled Ken with him as he moved into a sitting position and tried to get Ken
to lie down, but Ken refused to let go from him and remained at his shoulder.
He could feel the hot tears as they slid nonstop from his true love’s face and
down his bare back.

 

“Shhh, it’s ok, koibito. Try to calm down. It’s okay,
nothing’s going to happen.” He held Ken tight and close as he pulled Ken so he
was sitting in his lap but still crying at his shoulder like he wanted. TK
reached down and pulled a blanket from the floor. They were there in case a
sudden storm or freak snow thing in the winter came and he needed extra warmth;
in this case it was comfort.

 

He did the best he could with one hand to bring the blanket
around to cover both of them with the other hand still holding Ken close. But
Ken seemed to shy away from the touch in an instant and clung tighter to TK as
he cried harder.

 

“Shhh, Ken, honey. It’s okay. Everything’s going to be fine.
It’s just a blanket so we don’t catch a cold.”

 

Ken seemed to have been listening as he allowed TK to pull
the blanket over both of them and he leaned back against the bed board and
cradled the sobbing figure, which he loved more than life could tell.

 

After about an hour Ken’s cries were finally subsiding. TK
guessed that his voice was probably horse by now and he either stopped because
he finally calmed down a little or he ran out of tears to unleash.

He guessed again at the latter since Ken was still holding
TK rather tightly, as if expecting him to disappear if he didn’t.

 

He glanced at the clock and it read: 3:00AM.

 

‘Good thing mom’s not home.’ TK appreciated that. ‘A whole
hour we’ve been up now.

TK glanced at the clock when he felt the sheets turning
viciously behind him. That was what had woken him up in the first place.

 

When he turned around he saw that Ken was having a dream and
a bad one by the looks of it. After a second he tossed more and harder. TK got
worried more and more as each time he tried to awaken Ken from the awful event
he was seeing Ken didn’t even acknowledge that he was even there, just kept
turning around. After a minute or so Ken started to have tears rolling down his
cheeks and soon enough he was balling in his sleep, not as bad as he was for
the past hour but it was still pretty bad.

 

Ken’s noises finally stopped, but TK knew it would take a
lot more to get Ken to go to sleep again after what just happened. Ken sniffed
and than leaned back to look at TK’s worried expression.

 

Ken looked terrible. His entire face was tearstained, his
eyes were bloodshot red, and even his lip was bleeding a little from biting too
hard, TK guessed, while he was crying.

 

TK tried again to coax him with words but before he could
start Ken spoke, as TK had guessed earlier, that it was completely hoarse.

 

“Please, TK…Don’t leave me.” Ken asked, silent tears coming
from his eyes.

 

TK grabbed the blanket with his fist and than picked up Ken,
having the blanket drag on the floor.

 

Ken had curled into TK’s touch and was having his face
buried in the soft flesh.

 

TK set Ken on the counter of the bathroom and wrapped the
blanket around him. He pulled out a washcloth from under the counter, with Ken
clinging hastily to his hand and made sure he didn’t go anywhere he couldn’t
reach.

 

He put the cloth under the cold water coming from the sink
faucet and than tapped Ken’s face with it gently, wiping off the excess tears
that had tried to his face or were still dripping from his eyes. He replaced
the cloth back under the sink water and got it wet again, now wiping along
Ken’s still bloodshot eyes.

 

He pushed Ken’s raven hairs under his ear and kept wiping
his face. He dad at Ken’s lip lightly and wiped away the dried blood.

 

Now that Ken looked decent now he picked him back up and
carried him back to his room. He noted, while doing that, that Ken was shaking
violently and it wasn’t from the cold.

 

‘That must’ve been some dream. I’ve never seen him like
this. Oh please be ok. I can’t live to see you this hurt, Kenny.’

 

He sat in the same position as before with his leaning
against the bed board and Ken in his lap except this time Ken placed his face
in the crook where the neck and shoulder meet rather than over the shoulder,
and than the blanket was wrapped around both of them.

 

TK found that Ken shaking wasn’t as fierce as before as when
he first noted it, but it was a little better.

 

Ken sat up and looked into TK’s eyes, searching for
something it looked like, but what?

 

“Please, TK…say you won’t go.” He said again, his voice a
little better than before.

 

“Shhh, koibito, Kenny, I promise I’m not going anywhere.”

 

Ken nodded and lay back to where he was, still holding TK
tightly.

 

“Kenny, baby, please, tell me what happened. I can help
you.”

 

Ken nodded and without sitting up explained his dream to TK
who listened carefully, but you didn’t have to be a genius to figure out the
problem.

 

When Ken was finished TK wasn’t happy at all. Something
scared his love and that just wouldn’t do. He held Ken tighter, as if to show
he wasn’t going to disappear at any moment.

 

“Shhhh, it was just a dream. I won’t go disappearing
anywhere without you knowing first. You know I wouldn’t do that to you. Not a
purpose.

 

He held Ken the rest of the night like that, even after Ken
had fallen asleep again. TK knew it was a light sleep and Ken was on his guard
for anything he didn’t like in the room or anything going on near him. If he
felt TK move away he would him tighter and possibly try to move closer and if
the wind made tapping sounds at the window he would whimper slightly, but TK
just coaxed him back to sleep hoping it was help.

 

TK knew he had to protect his koibito no matter what. He
guessed that his senses were feeling that too since he felt awake the whole
time and never once did he fall back to sleep. He couldn’t when his Ken was at
risk; his love.
