Walk down from the D to the Asus by way of a transitional "chord" inserted at the asterisk:
D   D   D* Asus   A   Asus  G  
Here is what you should play between the D and the Asus:
E|-
B|3
G|-
D|-
A|x
E|x
Basically, just keep your third finger in place on the B string in between the D and Asus chords.
