Chapter 19

"Hmm, Ken, while you two were taking a shower a certain Izumi Koshiro called," Ken's mother said while clearing the table after breakfast. Yamato helped her take the dishes into the kitchen. He stopped at the door, interested. Ken froze on the threshold of his room buttoning up his crispy white shirt.

"Did he leave any message?" Ken asked.

"Yes. 'The Chosen are getting together at Yagami's place at 12 a.m. today'."

Yamato looked at the watch. Eleven thirty. Charming! He drummed on his wrist gesturing to hurry up to Ken.

Ken nodded. "We'll be going then, mom. Merry Christmas!"

"Sure. Uhm, Ken? You aren't into these digital things again, are you?" his mother asked worriedly.

"No. And I don't take drugs, alcohol and stuff." Though I did have wild sex with another boy, thought Ken and suppressed the urge to smirk.

"Make sure you don't go back late."

Yamato flashed his superman smile. "Don't worry, Mrs. Ichijouji, I'll take care of him."

Ken pretended to be extremely involved in fastening the last button on his shirt, hoping that his long hair would cover the most of his grin.

"Oh, okay."

Ken and Yamato shot out of his apartment block like bullets.

"Hell, we're late!"

"What do you think happens?"

"They'll assume we were too horny to hurry our asses up and 'll make us wash dishes," Yamato said knowingly. "Well, Taichi will."

They broke into running. The ground was slippery. The recent snow was swept into the huge banks that sparkled in the sun. Actually the sun was annoying; it made the snow melt and run, and there was no telling that New Year Day would have snow at all. Rather dirty mush.

"But we can always skip the party," Yamato muttered matter-of-factly. Ken stopped in the middle of the street and turned to him, with an eyebrow raised. His hand crawled comfortably into the pocket of the musician's jacket and fumbled for keys to Yamato's apartment. He hummed a question as he stepped to press their hips together.

"Ken, street, remember?" Yamato pulled him into the station by the arm. It was heavy traffic time and the trains were packed close. Ken and Yamato squeezed into the car and panting stood in the middle of a crowd, jammed together face to face. Their delirious smiles and rushed breath would have scared the passengers out of their wits had they not been engrossed into reading manga or talking over their cellular phones. Yamato smirked, aware that his partner was mildly aroused, and the boy stared at him pleadingly.

The tension reached its peak in the Yagami's apartment building.

"Let's take the stairs!" Ken said.

"It'll take forever to climb!"

Ken pulled Yamato towards the staircase door and leant against it, eyeing the blonde. "Yeah," he murmured back. "But who said about climbing?..."

Yamato stepped to him eagerly and lowered his mouth on his. They were totally late when they reached Yagami's floor since they stopped to kiss every three minutes. Yamato's hands wandered over Ken everywhere in wide strokes while his body was pressing the boy into the wall with his weight. Ken gasped under his lips.

"We are late.." the young boy reminded after breaking away.

Ken dreamily nodded his consent and pulled him back taking few shallow breaths before merging their lips together in a deep kiss. His tongue lashed out and melt in Yamato's warm mouth. The musician purred. He slipped his hands under Ken's long-sleeved shirt and rubbed at the small of his back. (a/n so, okay, it's winter, let's pretend Yamato had already unbuttoned the jacket that Ken was wearing and... well. Details. >.<) The younger boy arched his back and moaned softly in encouragement. Yamato brushed his long dark hair from his flushed face and stared in his darkened violet eyes. Ken smiled apologetically.

"I really think I'm falling in love with you," Yamato murmured and bent his neck to nimble on the boy's lips. Ken chuckled somewhat and opened his mouth to welcome Yamato's tongue in.

A door banged and voices drifted from behind the staircase door on Yagami's floor. Yamato and Ken broke away, realizing where they were.

"So, what are we gonna tell them?" Daisuke's voice asked behind the staircase door.

Yamato instantly felt bad for eavesdropping. However, he gestured to the indigo-haired to keep silent and strained his ears. The genius, feeling dirty and still curious, froze in his arms.

"I guess, it's a kinda stupid situation. I mean, Sora and the others came to see if I was okay and... well..." Taichi said. "They thought I was a wreck..."

"Oh," Daisuke moved about.

"And they wanted to cheer me up..."

"Right."

"And the last thing they expected to see was us kissing..."

Yamato angled an eyebrow.

"Sorry," the redhead shuffled his foot and sighed. Ken recognized this sigh as 'a regretful, self-blaming, oh-so-rare sigh' of Daisuke. He glanced at Yamato in puzzlement. Yamato pressed his finger to his mouth to prevent him from speaking.

"Sora was shocked," Taichi finished. "How do I explain it to her?"

"So, we won't tell them that we had sex?" Daisuke asked. Ken whimpered with Yamato's hand strategically placed on his mouth. The purple eyes stared madly at the blonde.

"They wouldn't understand," the first leader said and took a deep breath. "They still think I want Yamato.."

"And you don't?" the smaller boy interrupted hopefully.

"I... No. I like you. Dai, I said it this morning. I want to be with you."

"You really like me?" There was a blush in Daisuke's voice.

"..."

"You like me? You mean, you like ME? You mean, like as in LIKE?!" Daisuke asked incredulously.

"What, nobody ever said this to you?"

"Well, Miyako did... in the kindergarten... and Hikari," Daisuke started self-consciously. He sounded like he didn't want to look inexperienced. Not before his idol.

Taichi laughed. "Liar.."

"Hey!!!.. Actually I like you too," Daisuke was embarrassed. "And did I ever tell you I had that big crush on you when I was eight?.."

"No, but it was damn obvious," Taichi said and the small boy started to reply but was interrupted by a kiss. Ken and Yamato exchanged a look.

"Maybe we should tell them too?" the indigo-haired whispered. "That we are a couple?" The blonde's lips pressed to his in agreement. "But really - Daisuke and Taichi?!" Ken shook his head. Yamato shrugged.

"Look at us."

They proceeded to more kissing but just then the apartment door burst wide open and Koshiro's voice yelled, "What the hell?!" Taichi and Daisuke parted instantly.

"Hnng.." Yamato said, "Poor Taichi." He flung the door ajar before his lover. "Shall we?"

Koshiro's cheeks were a nice shade of his hair colour when Yamato and Ken appeared through the staircase door and on the scene. Daisuke and Taichi both pulled on their guilty faces. Jyou and Sora (with Miyako and Iori peeking from behind) stood at the entrance of the apartment behind Koshiro, who was glowing with rage and looked like he wanted to kill somebody.

"Hi!" Yamato said.

"Oh hi, Yama!" Taichi turned gratefully to him. "Hi, Ken-kun. You're late."

"We're right on time," the blonde pointed to the company at the door. "What's got into you, Koshiro?" he asked.

"What the hell were they doing?!!! Ask him yourself!!!" Koshiro shouted clenching his fists in the air. (a/n imagine this!!) His eyes flamed with fury and Jyou had to hold him back from hurling himself at the two boys.

"He saw us kiss," Taichi muttered uncomfortably to his best friend.

"And?" the blonde asked pushing his fists nonchalantly into his pockets. "Was it so bad?" Koshiro growled. Yamato patted his best friend's shoulder. "That's okay, Koshiro. Taichi's a big boy now... Aintcha?" and in a quiet voice to Taichi, "You're one horny bastard, you know."

"Bastard yourself... How much have you heard?" Taichi blinked and realized that he had listened in on his conversation.

"From the beginning."

Taichi blushed and pressed his lips together.

"Hi, Ken. So, you and Yamato walked all the way?" Daisuke was hiding behind Taichi and still finding time to communicate with Ken.

"Something happened to the elevator... I guess," Ken shrugged innocently when the humming of the elevator interrupted him.

"I see," Daisuke upraised him from head to foot, noting his unzipped jacked and his crumpled shirt. Ken started to straighten it out innocently. The cinnamon haired pointed to the hickey on his collarbone. "When?"

"When I woke up." Ken chastely buttoned his shirt up to the end. Their eyes met. The smaller boy stuck his big finger out and pointed at Yamato. "Yes, we're lovers," Ken said. "But so are you and Taichi." Daisuke blushed and stoically nodded.

In the meanwhile Koshiro roughly demanded some explanations.

"So what?!" Taichi said defensively. "I like Daisuke. Besides, he kissed back."

Koshiro nearly threw himself at him. Yamato held the redhead back and Jyou helped.

"Yesterday you were in love with Yamato..."

"I think it concerns only me and Yamato," the teenager raised his voice.

"Koshiro, how about they talk about it tête-à -tête?" Jyou suggested.

"But he kissed him!.."

Familiar lovely voices sounded from the apartment.

"Yamato-niisan!"

"Hello, Ken-kun!"

Yamato and Taichi both clapped their hands over Koshiro's big mouth and smiled to their adorable angelic siblings. The last thing they needed was to allow Takeru and Hikari learn something inappropriate for their age.

"We're making lunch ready," said Takeru brightly. "What's up here?"

"Nothing!" everyone said. Everybody was sure that the angels of the team shouldn't know anything.

"Problems?" Hikari asked innocently.

"NO problems!!!" answered the chorus of ultra-confident voices. As if on cue Jyou and Miyako began to usher everybody inside.

"We just wait for you inside, okay?" Jyou said and hurriedly shut the door. Taichi and Yamato turned to the computer boy with menacing smiles and the redhead began to squirm away in panic.

"I guess, that's it," the brunette said after a moment of silence. "It's out. I and Daisuke slept with each other.."

"And so did we."

A gentle but firm voice interrupted Taichi, and Ken stepped to Yamato's side with composed determination. The blonde threw a comforting hand over his shoulder and glanced at his childhood friend. Taichi stared back in shock. For a second he looked like he was working his jaws to say something, then he forced a smile.

"I'm happy for you. Ken. Yamato," he said. Daisuke rubbed his head on his lover's shoulder.

Nobody remembered that Koshiro was there as well, that was why everyone started in panic when a shrill cry flew into the air.

"YOU SLEPT WITH THEM?!!"
