Being late isn't all that bad
DISCLAIMER: I do not own digimon adventure or its characters. I hope you enjoy my story!
Takeru was sleeping peacefully inside his room. He was living with his older brother Yamato and his father. His mother passed away five months ago so he was forced to live with his remaining family.
"Yamato, don't forget to wake up your brother before seven. He has Saturday classes. Well, I'm leaving now." Yamato's father said as he got his blue jacket off the coat rack and went out.
Yamato got a bag of potato chips and plopped onto the couch and turned on the television. He kept on switching from channel to channel finding something good to watch. Then he stumbled upon a channel where they were airing his band playing during their latest concert. He waited for it to finish and realized it was five to seven. He quickly rushed to Takeru's room and woke him up.
"Wake up, Takeru! You're late for school!" He shook his younger brother violently.
"What the-"
"It's five to seven! You have Saturday classes today, remember?" He got up and rushed to the bathroom along with his towel and clothes and took a quick bath. His brother made him toast which he got from him and went out the door.
"Sorry, Takeru! Wasn't able to wake you up in time!" Yamato called and was sure he didn't hear him.
When Takeru got to the sidewalk, he stopped running and just walked fast while chewing on his breakfast. Suddenly, a car stopped beside him and the window rolled down.
"Takeru, you late?" A short, brown-haired girl asked him.
"Hikari?" Takeru had a surprised look on his face. "Yeah. My brother woke me up late."
"Hop in!" Hikari said as she opened the car door and let Takeru in. The driver then continued driving to the school.
"Thanks, uh, for the ride." Takeru said looking away from a little embarrassment.
"It's okay. I'm fine with it." They were silence for a moment until Hikari decided to speak.
"Listen, Takeru, I have something to tell you." She swallowed hard and tried to continue what she was trying to say. "It's been a long time since I realized that," She paused trying not to stammer (A/n: Let's say she's a shy, quiet girl like Hyuuga Hinata from Naruto (disclaimer)). "That I have feelings for you. What I'm trying to say is that Takeru, I love you."
Takeru froze, shocked of what she said. "I really don't know what to say. You see, before I had a crush on you but then gave up because I knew that you don't have feelings for me. But I guess I was wrong.'
Hikari's face brightened up and hugged Takeru. He smiled then hugged back. They reached their destination after a while and quickly headed to class. They seem to get there in time and went to their seats.
'Being late isn't all that bad,' Takeru thought. 'Even though I'm not a tardy person, it feels good to do something that isn't a habit once in a while.' Takeru turned to face Hikari. ' I guess she wasn't able to confess her feelings to me before since I always hang out with my friends. I think that sometimes, I'm just too blind to notice the truths about my surroundings.'
THE END
A/n: Hehe... Sorry! It's too short! And the ending sucks! T.T I know my writing sucks even though this is my third time writing a takari fic.
