I Want You

('I Want You': part 27)

Darren just smiled at Daniel's comment. "Me too, Daniel, me too."
"Now Darren, what are we gonna do tonight?"
Darren's eyebrows sprung up. "Do tonight? what do you mean?"
Daniel laughed. "No, i don't mean it *that* way, i meant about our show"
"Well, are *you* ready to perform tonight, Daniel? I mean, after you being hurt like that, i wouldn't expect you to wanna go on stage like that"
Daniel smiled. "I think i can handle it, Dazzy. After this moment, i think i'm ready for anything now"
Darren arched his left eyebrow. "*anything*, huh?? Well..."
There was a knock at the door.
Darren sighed. "Come in"
Ben stormed into the room, shocked to see Daniel standing there. "Where the hell have you been, mate?"
"Uh, nevermind that, Ben. I'm back now and better than ever"
"Well, you better be! We got a show to do tonight!"
Daniel smiled. "Yes Ben, i know. Go tell the rest of the band not to panick and that our show is still on"
"Alright, mate. Now just don't go take off again like that, ok? You worried the crap out of all of us!"
Dan nodded. "Alright, Ben."
Ben left ,shaking his head.
Darren turned to look at Daniel who was already smiling at him. "Darren, i think tonight's show is going to be the best show i've ever done"
"Same here, Danny, same here."

The show went great for all the band.
Oliver was in the front row, who got a few weird looks from young teenage girls to why a man in his 20's was there, not realizing that it was Daniel's brother.
At the end of the show, backstage, Oliver went up to Daniel and gave him a hug. "God, so glad that you're back, Daniel. You feel better now, i presume?"
Daniel smiled. "Ya, let's just say i needed that time alone to think things over"
"Great to hear it. Darren was worried sick about you, you know that? You've got an amazing bestfriend"
Daniel smiled again. "Oh i know i do, Oliver" (and a wonderful lover too) he thought happily.

Walking up to the dressing room mirror, Darren smiled at his reflection this time. Now, he saw himself as a man with courage, passion and a great love for his partner in music, love and hopefully for life.
Daniel walked up behind him slowly, waving at him in the mirror. "That was a great show, wasn't it, though?" he said with a smile.
Darren nodded. "Yes, it was. you were on my mind the whole time" "Ditto, dazzy, as always"
This made Darren blush. "Stop that now, Danny. People are gonna see me blushing" he said laughing.
"you know what, Darren?"
Darren shrugged. "No, tell me" he said smiling.
"I want you"
"well Danny boy, that's gonna have to wait till we get back home.....i hope you can wait" he said with a sly smile.
Daniel nodded quickly. "Oh, i can wait....hey, i've waited until *now* for all of this, so ya, i can wait"
Darren smiled warmly. "Don't worry, Dan, we'll be back home soon"

don't worry, you don't have to wait either..
