Well, first off I have to say thanks to all the people who have read this and are enjoying it. And to Vain, feel free to archive all you want! ^_^
Digimon and its characters don't belong to me; instead they belong to companies with more money than I have. I'm just a poor college student who blows all her money on anime-related goodies. All warnings placed on the first part still apply. ^_^
BTW, I'm not completely happy with this chapter, but I started it, like two or three times before I got something I liked. And I figured, if my mother likes it, then it can't be *that* bad....

Chapter 2: Confusion
Morning was not the time that Ichijouji Ken preferred. He was, by no means, a morning person, especially when he hadn't gotten any sleep the night before. So, when the day rolled around, he found himself clutching his blanket over his head, trying to ignore not only the hustle and bustle of a new day in Tamachi, but the constant poking of his Digimon partner to get out of bed.
It wasn't until his mother came into his bedroom, that he knew that any more time in bed was a wasted effort. Pulling himself out of bed, he got ready for the day, dressing in a pair of slacks and loose shirt. Smiling, he glanced at himself in the mirror. 'Perfect.' He thought to himself, 'Daisuke will love this!'
Minomon watched Ken carefully from the bed. Although he wanted to believe his partner's claims that everything was all right, Minomon knew different. But looking at Ken now, he wondered if his concern was slightly more than necessary. After all, the boy *looked* fine... The Digimon sighed, even though he and Ken had been partners for years, he still didn't fully understand Ken, and he doubted that he ever would.
Ken turned to Minomon, picking him up. "Come on," he said, "or we are going to be late meeting the others."
The little Digimon smiled, bubbling excitedly. "The others? Is Chibimon going to be there?"
Ken laughed softly, "Of course he is!" he told his partner, while placing him gently in the bag he used to carry Minomon around the city. Glancing around his room, he shivered as a twinge of unease settled around him. Biting his lip, he moved from the room, shutting the door behind him.

The park had become the standard meeting place of the Chosen Children ever since the real world invasion over 6 years ago. Today was no different, although the reasons for the meetings were. With the threat to the Digital World long in the past, the children simply met to be kept abreast of recent events in both the Digital World and in their own personal lives. There were no threats to their lives, and no enemies out to destroy them.
While their Digimon played, the others caught up on the major events of each other's lives. For the moment, the girls were having a laugh while Miyako described her latest crush, while Takeru and Koushiro had simply begun to shake their heads in amusement; Yamato and Taichi were talking to Daisuke, and Jyou was talking to Iori, giving advice about something or other. Ken simply sat on the grass, head resting on his knees, eyes watching his friends.
Daisuke plopped down next to him, gently elbowing Ken. The other boy turned to Daisuke, looking at him with inquisitive eyes. Daisuke frowned a little, stating, "You sure have been quiet today."
Ken shrugged, glancing over towards the group of Digimon tumbling in the grass. "I didn't get any sleep last night." He said softly.
Daisuke looked intrigued. "Oh... what were you doing?" He poked Ken in the arm, "Thinking of me, I hope."
Ken just smiled slightly. "Thinking highly of yourself, aren't you?"
Daisuke huffed, "Well, of course I am. I am, after all, the great Motomiya Daisuke!"
Ken stared at Daisuke for a full moment, before snorting, "You, Dai-chan, are impossible."
Daisuke crossed his arms, pouting at Ken. Ken glanced at him for a moment, then turned away, shoulders shaking. It took a minute for Daisuke to realize what was going on and grabbed Ken's shoulder, spinning the other boy back around to face him. He stared at Ken as the other boy's hand was clenched over his mouth, trying to keep from laughing out loud. Daisuke smiled.
The wind suddenly picked up, and Ken was met with sudden coldness, wrapping his arms around himself. He noticed a sudden movement out of the corner of his eye, and turned towards it. A little butterfly flew by his face, and his eyes followed it, entranced.
"Please no... "
"Don't worry, Ken. It won't hurt... much."
"No... n.. ahhhhhh!"
Ken suddenly clamped his hands over his ears, clutching them tight, trying to quiet the screams echoing in his head. "Go away!" he swore, viscously.
Daisuke placed a hand on Ken's shoulder, only to have to have it knocked violently away. "Ken...?" he questioned, his voice trailing off, uncertain. Ken's eyes locked with his, Ken's eyes reminding Daisuke of the time when Ken had ceased being the Kaiser, when, with Wormmon's death, the young boy had realized that Digimon were real. Daisuke suddenly swallowed, his throat dry.
The others turned from their conversations, watching Ken and Daisuke intently. As if sensing their scrutiny, Ken's eyes went to from guilt ridded, to remorseful, to downright scared out of his mind. He grabbed Minomon, and throwing everyone a hasty 'goodbye' practically ran out of the park, leaving behind one very confused boyfriend, who was shouting after him.
The others stood there in shock, completely confused as to what just happened. Miyako, being ever so blunt, turned to one person who Knew Ken better than the rest of them, and asked, "Daisuke, what the *hell* just happened?"
Daisuke shook his head, "I don't have a clue, Miyako." But rest assured, I *will* find out.
TBC...
And, yes, the fact that Ken flips when he sees the butterfly is important. Just think back to episode 50... where am I going with this? You'll see.... *insert crazy Kaiser laugh here* I am *so* evil.... *grins*
