Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon, although I wish, the
characters here aren't mine, but I did write this, It's
the first I've sent in on fanfic.net, and it's a
Gomamon+Gatomon romance, so if you don't like 'em, leave now.

A small seal digimon is running through the forest,
followed by a quick moving bug digimon. 'I wish I had a little
help here' he thought as he dodged a small tree. He ran as
fast as he could, trying his best to avoid everything that
he could, but when he looked back to see if he was still being
chased, he ran into a tree. The bug digimon laughed at his
misfortune and started to dive in to kill the seal digimon, as
the seal digimon closed his eyes waiting for his opponent to
strike. "Lightning Claw!" A voice yelled. The seal digimon opened
his eyes to see the bug flying away and a small cat digimon with
gloved claws staring at him. "Gatomon! It's you!" he shouted.
"Yeah Gomamon, it's me," Gatomon replied, "I saw you running from
Flymon and decided to help out." "I could've taken care of him
myself!" Gomamon smirked. "Yeah right!" Gatomon said, while Gomamon
got up on his flippers. "So, what've you been doing since Kari, Joe,
and the rest left the Digiworld?" she asked. "Nothing, swimming,
eating, sleeping," He replied, "same as always. Hey, why don't you
come with me so we can talk some more?" Gatomon shrugged, "Sure,
why not, got nothin' better to do."

Gomamon and Gatomon walked for an hour or so, telling
eachother what they've been doing in the past year, and soon it
started to rain. "Great...I just got my fur cleaned, and now it has
to rain!" Gatomon complained. Gomamon looked around and picked up a
large leaf that fell to the ground from a nearby tree and held it
over Gatomon to shield her from the rain. Gatomon blushed a little,
not expecting Gomamon to be so kind to her, "Why, thank you Gomamon,"
She said. Gomamon smiled, and continued walking. Soon they made it to
a small cave where they decided to rest a while. As soon as they got
in and sat down, the rain started to really pour, and it looked like
a big storm was coming.

They talked for a while, and it continued to pour outside,
while they stayed warm inside. "I see you still have that whistle Kari
gave you when she left with the others," Gomamon said. Gatomon held
the whistle in her paw and nodded, "It helps me when I miss her, she
was my best friend," she said as a tear started to flow down her cheek.
Gomamon sat close to Gatomon and wiped the tear off her cheek with his
flipper. "It's okay Gatomon, you have other friends, and it's not like
you wont see her again," Gatomon continued to cry the more she thought,
"Friends? No digimon would want to be my friend! I worked with
Myotismon, remember?" Gomamon embraced Gatomon in a comforting hug,
"That's not true Gatomon, you have me, you and I are friends." 'I wish
we were more though' Gomamon thought to himself. She continued to cry
and he held her until she fell asleep. Once she was asleep, he put her
down on a pillow he made out of a few leaves, and started to pet her
head. She slowly began to smile in her sleep, and let out a soft,
constant purr. Gomamon slowly bent over and kissed Gatomon on the
forehead, and lied down next to her, and placed his flipper over her
to keep her warm that night, and fell asleep.

Gomamon awoke later that night to see it was almost pitch
black. He could hear the rain pattering on the ground outside the
cave, and could see a full moon, which lit the sky along with the
stars. He looked around and noticed that Gatomon wasn't where she
was when he fell asleep. In fact, he couldn't find her anywhere in
the cave. He slowly picked himself up and waddled out of the cave
into the rain. He squinted his eyes, trying to see in the small
amount of moonlight and saw a small cat digimon sitting a few feet
away under a tree. 'What's she doing out here in the rain?' Gomamon
thought, 'I better go talk to her' Gomamon walked close to Gatomon,
and sat down next to her. "Why are you out here in the rain?" he
asked. Gatomon didn't answer, she just sat in the same position she
was in with her head held by her paws, bent over. Gomamon could tell
she was crying, even when he could barely see her, and tried to
comfort her with a hug. Gatomon was too upset, and struggled out of
Gomamon's comforting embrace. "What's wrong Gatomon? Why are you so
upset?"

Gatomon lifted her head and looked at Gomamon, her eyes wet
from crying, "I...I can't tell you Gomamon..." she said. "Is it about
Kari?" he asked. Gatomon shook her head, "It's nothing, I'm fine"
she replied, and got up and walked back to the cave to lie down.
'Why can't I tell him?' she thought, 'Why can't I say the words I want
to?' Gomamon slowly walked in, and he stared at Gatomon for a minute.
The gentle expression on his face soon turned to fear, "Gatomon! Look
out!" he yelled as he ran towards her and pushed her out of the way
before getting hit in the head with a rock. Gatomon, after being
pushed out of the way from the falling rock, hit her head on the
cave wall, and passed out.

When Gatomon woke up, she looked around. It was light and
the cave was empty. "Gomamon!" She shouted as she noticed Gomamon
wasn't around. She looked in the back of the cave, which had an
opening she didn't notice the night before. She picked herself up off
the ground and went in the new opening. It was dark, even with the
light flooding in from the entrance of the cave, this part was so dark
she could barely see her paw in front of her face. She walked a few
minutes until she came across a labyrinth, which had lit torches
lining the walls. 'If I explore here, I may get lost, but if I don't
look around, I may never see Gomamon again...I better look around'
Gatomon thought as she started to wander in the large maze.

After an hour of walking, Gatomon could see that she was lost.
She couldn't find Gomamon, or the way out. Gatomon's eyes started to
water, but she held off the hot tears as best as she could,
'I'm a tough digimon, I was part of Myotismon's army, I can't cry...'
Gatomon couldn't hold back the tears, and she fell to her knees and
cried. "Oh Gomamon!" She yelled out, "I'll never see you again! I'll
never be able to tell you how I felt about you..." She continued to
cry until she spotted something ahead of her. She wiped her eyes and
looked up to see a strange horse-like digimon in front of her. "Who
are you?" she asked. The digimon grinned and held a hand out to her.
A small beam of light shot out as he yelled, "Moon Beam!" Gatomon
dodged the attack and jumped at her attacker. She clawed at his back,
but he was covered in armor, which her claws couldn't penetrate. The
digimon knocked her off his back, and grabbed her in one of his
hands. "I am DarkCentarumon, guardian of this labyrinth, you will
make a nice addition to my collection, you will go along side the
seal digimon I captured in my cave last night..." Gatomon gasped
before getting knocked out by a wave of energy.

As Gatomon woke up, she found herself in a small cage,
which was barely large enough for her to turn around in. She felt a
small claw poke her from behind, and as she spun around, saw Gomamon.
Gatomon smiled and wrapped her arms around Gomamon. "Oh Gomamon! I
was so worried about you!" Gomamon's cheeks turned bright red,
"You were worried about me?" he asked. Gatomon nodded, "Let's
escape!" she suggested. Gomamon shook his head, "I can't Gatomon,
I can't walk too fast, I'll just slow youj down." Gatomon peered
down at Gomamon's flippers and noticed they were wrapped up in a
bandage. "You go ahead," Gomamon told Gatomon, "I'll be okay, you
just need to get out of here." Gatomon frowned, "Gomamon, I'm not
leaving here without you! I came here to find you and get you out
of here, and that's what I'm going to do!" Gatomon looked outside
the cage to find that DarkCentarumon was asleep, as she looked out,
she accidentally leaned on the cage door, and it opened. Gatomon
almost fell out onto the ground, but Gomamon caught her and pulled
her back in.

"Thanks Gomamon," she said, "Now lets make our escape!"
Gomamon shook his head, "I told you! I can't walk too well!"
Gatomon thought for a moment, and backed up to Gomamon, "Climb on
my back," she said. "What?" Gomamon questioned, very confused. "I
said climb on my back! I'll carry you out, I'm not leaving you behind,
and either I carry you by your choice, or I knock you out and do it,
your pick." Gomamon reluctantly climbed on Gatomon's back, and Gatomon
held on to his flippers so she wouldn't drop him. She looked outside
the cage to find DarkCentarumon still asleep and jumped out of the
cage, and ran out the door of the room. She found herself in the
labyrinth and wandered around, hoping to get out before DarkCentarumon
awoke.

She walked for a long time, and looked a little tired.
"Why don't we stop for a little while so you can rest?" Gomamon
suggested. "No Gomamon, we need to get out. If we were found out,
there would be no way you would survive, since you can't run." Gatomon
said, while still walking with Gomamon on her back. There was a great
silence while Gatomon carried Gomamon further. "Why?" Gomamon finally
spoke up. Muddled, Gatomon asked, "Why what?" "Why did you come to
save me?" 'This is the perfect time' Gatomon thought, 'If I'm going
to tell him my true feelings I have toward him, it better be now'
Gatomon stopped walking and set Gomamon down, "Well," she said,
"...This is hard for me to say...but...I love you Gomamon," Gomamon
just looked at her for a second and grinned, "I love you too Gatomon,"
Gatomon smiled and picked Gomamon back up and walked around a corner,
suprised to find the exit to the large maze. She carried Gomamon
outside and put him down next to a tree and smiled at him. He pulled
her in with his flippers and gave her a kiss, small at first, but it
soon became a deep, passionate kiss which lasted for minutes, hours,
or maybe it was just seconds, either way, it seemed like forever to
them. Gatomon looked up at Gomamon as they seperated and smiled before
cuddling up to him and falling asleep. Gomamon grinned to himself
before he joined her in a deep slumber.
