Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ The Prince's Harem ❯ Now what ( Chapter 7 )

AN: I don't really like how I've written this part. *sigh* I hope it gets better…

"Yama?" exclaimed Takeru. "What are you doing here? How are you alive?"

"Don't you remember? Mom and Dad separated. Mom took you, but Dad kept me, since I was his heir."

"So you and Dad are still alive?"

"No, Dad died. I'm now the king. And you need to come home with me."

Takeru leaned back into Ken. Ken wrapped his arms around him "You do seem to forget one fact," said Ken. "Legally, Takeru belongs to me. And I'm not just going to give him to you. I care about Takeru and Daisuke. They need to be listened to on this matter." Daisuke looked up at Ken. "Yes, you are important too. You were Takeru's boyfriend first."

Taichi looked at Takeru. He looked comfortable in Ken's lap. "What do you mean Daisuke was Takeru's boyfriend first?"

Ken answered. "Takeru and Daisuke were together at their last master's house. They fell in love and then were sold apart."

Daisuke decided to add to Ken's explanation. "Takeru had nightmares and I helped him sleep at night, and then we ended up falling in love."

Takeru looked at his brother. "But Ken and Daisuke have both helped me to get over them."

"You don't want to come home?" asked Yamato.

"I don't know what I want. I didn't believe that I would ever see you again. I love Ken and Dai with all my heart. How am I supposed to deal with all of this?" Takeru started to quietly cry. "Why can't things ever work out?"

Ken hugged Takeru close and tried to calm him down. He stroked his hair and murmured into his ears. Yamato walked over toward Ken and Takeru. When he finally got there, Takeru was asleep. Ken looked up at Yamato. "He's worn himself out." Ken stood up with Takeru in his arms.

"Where are you going with him?" asked Yamato.

Ken glared at Yamato. "I'm going to put him to bed, where else? He needs to sleep. We can deal with this when he wakes up."

Daisuke stood up and tugged on Ken's sleeve. "Ken…."

"Yes?"

"Maybe Yamato might want to see where Takeru lives right now? I mean, can't he come with us? He hasn't seen his brother in a long time and……" Daisuke stopped, wondering if he might have pushed Ken too far. He could tell that he was angry about Takeru getting upset.

Ken nodded at Daisuke. "If he wants to." Ken then walked out the door toward the harem rooms.

Daisuke looked over at Yamato. "Do you want to come?"

Yamato nodded and followed Ken and Daisuke. Ken seemed to walk through a maze, until he came upon a door hidden in a wall and unlocked it. Daisuke followed Ken inside. Yamato paused in front of the door and then followed.

Inside Yamato entered a bright and airy room with cushions and low tables strewn about. There were several doors off of the main room. Ken walked straight toward one and went in. Daisuke and Yamato followed him.

Yamato found himself in a large bedroom decorated in blue and white. Ken put Takeru in the large bed and tucked him in. Ken stoked his hair and gave him a kiss on his forehead. Ken looked at Yamato. "Let him sleep. We can talk about the future in the morning."

Daisuke laid down on the bed next to Takeru. He gathered Takeru into his arms. "I'll make sure that he eats dinner if he wakes up."

Ken nodded and turned to go. Yamato looked at the two boys and then followed Ken out. There were a lot of things to work out in the morning.
