Anyway enough delay and heres the new and improved Story.

It was 6:10 on a Wednesday morning and Kari woke up to the sound of her mother yelling at Tai for leaving his dirty sneakers in the middle of the floor.

She sat there for a minute to wipe the sleep from her hazel eyes, when she got up she headed straight to the bathroom to brush her teeth.
Kari stared at herself in the mirror, 'oh gosh I'm such a mess this morning' she thought to herself as she grabbed the hair brush from the sink counter and started to brush her shoulder length honey brown hair, luckily her hair was being nice to her today so didn't have to fix much.
Once she was done in the bathroom she headed back to her pink filled bedroom, and went straight into the closet to pull out a pair of faded blue hip-hugging jeans, a hot pink tank top and lately her trademark white sweater, that on the back of it had a drawing that she drew of her and her friends with black permanent marker.
Once she was done she stared at herself in the mirror again, admiring her work.

"Hmm better" She said out loud to herself as she did a quick twirl in the mirror.
Even though it was just a typical school day, she had a feeling something new was going to happen today but she wasn't sure what it could be.

Walking out of her room she slipped into her white and pink converse as she started walking towards the front door, in which she spotted Tai already impatiently waiting for her.

"Well it's about time you walked out of your room, God I swear girls always take forever, and you know I would have thought that maybe this time you would be quick considering it's just a regular school day" Tai ranted on but Kari was already use to this lecture, since she hears it every morning.

"Yeah yeah I take forever blah blah okay lecture me some more in the car, let me just grab my bag" Kari waved her older brother off as she searched for her black tote bag that her rainbow color stars splashed around it.

She finally spotted it being held by her mother.
"Hikari you have to learn to pick up your stuff and not leave them laying around, because then you'll just be a slob like Tai" Her mother said as she handed the bag to Kari with a smile.
Kari nodded with a smile as she gave her mother a big hug.
"Don't worry mom, I'm far from being anything like my big brother"
And with that Kari ran out the door avoiding a playful push from her older brother.
"Oh ha-ha you guys are so funny, It's not my fault we have different styles on being organized" Tai said in a matter o factly way as he locked the house and raced Kari to the car.

"Okay Tai quit complaining, I'm going to be late!" Kari complained as she put on her seat belt and waited for Tai to start the car.

"Well maybe if you didn't take so long we would have been at your school faster, you know I don't even have to wake up this early my classes don't usually start till 3" Tai said as he put the car in drive and started to head toward Kari's high school.

Tai finally graduated from high school and is now attending college with Matt, Sora and Mimi.
He got accepted on a soccer scholarship, and still hasn't decided on a major yet.
so pretty much he's still the same goofball as before, only a bit more taller and actually liked the college life.

Kari rolled her eyes as she started mess with the radio, she popped in one of her favorite mix CD that TK made for her a while ago.
It had a whole of different bands that TK liked and was trying to get Kari into, at first Kari made a huge fuss about it, since lately she's been scared to try new things, including to new bands that weren't anything like taking back Sunday, or the ataris.
But after feeling bad for all the trouble he must have went through to make it she decided to give it a try and before she knew that CD was one of her favorites.

"Kari aren't you tired of that CD, you listen to it like every freaking morning!" Tai whined.
He knew there was no use in complaining anymore since she would just turn the volume up higher but he decided to try it anyway.

"Oh hush Tai this is my favorite song!" Kari squeaked as she put up the volume to the song "Blue and Yellow" by the used.

Tai just rolled his eyes as he drove off towards her school.
'sometimes I wonder about that girl' Tai thought to himself with a loud sigh even though he knew Kari was to absorbed in the song to even notice.

Once they arrived at the front of the school, Kari already spotted TK waiting for her under the big oak tree playing with his camera that he bought for his new photography class. Kari turned to face to Tai "Thanks for the ride Tai I really appreciate it" She said with her trademark smile that is always plastered on her face, Tai smiled back "No problem Kari, Uhm your going to walk home with TK today right?"

"Yeah of course" Kari said as she waved to her brother and then turned and started walking towards the oak tree.

Kari smiled to herself as she watched her best friend since before she could remember, messing around with his new camera.
She always thought he looked adorable every time he tried to figure out things, weather it be a math problem or how to turn on a digital camera, TK always seem to have this trademark expression, as if he was trying to discover physics.

"Hey" TK said as he lifted the camera up to her and snapping a quick picture of her as she stood in front of him.

"TK! Please no pictures! Especially not so early in the morning" she said covering her face with her hand.
In truth she absolutely loved the fact that TK was always trying to take pictures of her, it made her feel special every time his teacher would give him a photography assignment he would always chose her to be his model.
But she didn't want to give him the benefit of knowing that, he might use it against her one day.

TK gave her a small smile as he put the camera down and started to look at the little screen where it showed all the pictures that he took.
Kari couldn't help but notice how TK has changed over the years, he's a bit taller, his blonde hair grew longer, not in a disgusting go get a hair way, but just long enough for it to fall over his eyes, he gave up on his fisherman hat and upgraded to another type of hat.

"Okay, fine but you owe me some hot poses later" he said in a playful tone in which Kari knew he was joking.
even though sometimes she wishes that he wouldn't joke like that, it's not that it gets her uncomfortable or anything, it just that sometimes she wishes he would mean it.
Kari tried to push those thoughts from her mind as she sat down next to him and stared at the pictures he recently took.

"Hey some of those are actually pretty cool" Kari said as she grabbed the camera right out of TK's hands and started to go through them again, and saying a typically 'oh that's cute' or his favorite 'oh my gosh I was so not ready for that one' .
TK leaned back against the oak tree as he listened to Kari's constant compliments or random complaints, he always found this comfort with her, the kind where you don't have to say anything at all and it not be awkward, the kind where you can just be yourself and you don't have to pretend to be someone your not and lately that's all he really needed, was to be himself.
And with Kari he knew that's all she really wanted from him too.

Ever since high school started everyone always wanted TK to do everything, his brother wanted him to follow in his footsteps by learning how to play guitar, so that one day he could join his band.
his father wanted him to join the basketball team, which he did last year and this year.
His mother wanted him to get straight A's in all of his classes so that he could get into outstanding colleges, this is when Ken and Cody became his best friends, since they were such bookworms.
And TK would never tell or let anyone know about all the work he had to do, because he just wanted to please everybody, the only person that ever let him feel as if he didn't have to impress was of course Kari.

His thoughts were then interrupted, when Kari threw the camera back onto his lap.

"Only 2 weeks left of school!" Kari said with her happy voice that could make anyone just forget their troubles.

"I know! I cant believe that we're going to be juniors soon!" TK said as he turned off his camera.
he was so glad that at least during the summer he'll have some freedom.

Kari then stared at TK as he started messing with the camera again, and she remembered how excited he got when he found out that they gave him that photography class.

FlashBack

The bell rung and everyone was getting out of class, Kari was waiting by her locker with her best friend Yoile just talking about their class when out of no where a they see a flash. Kari quickly turns around " ECK!" "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!" Yoile yelled.

They both turned to Face TK who was holding a black camera. " Hey girls, just got out of photography class" TK said with a huge smile on his face as he played around with the camera. " The Teacher gave us all cameras and told us to take pictures of certain things, the only catch is we cant see the pictures that we take till the end of the year" "well in that case when the end of the year gets here we're taking that picture and burning it" Kari said in a calm tone as she put back her hair. Another flash came out of the camera while Kari fixed her hair. " TK what was that for!" she asked annoyed with the camera "Just wanted another picture" "well next time take one of me when I'm expecting it!" she playfully pushed him.

"Man I really love this class" TK Said as he started to walk away.

"I'll see you girls at lunch okay?" he said to them as he walked to his next class.

END FlashBack

"Hello Kari?" TK said as he snapped his fingers in front of her face.

"Oh sorry I was thinking about that time you got your camera" she laughed.
TK smiled he loved hearing her laugh.

Kari looked at her watch "Oh Darn! I gotta go meet up with Yolie at the locker! She said hat she had something important to tell me, I guess I'll see you in first period, okay?" she said waving at him as she got up and was about to walk away when TK's voice stopped her

"Hey Kari pose quick!" Kari quickly turned around and put her hands in the air and made a little pose. "Thanks" TK said as he looked through the photos once again. Kari giggled "no problem anything for my bestest friend in the whole wide world!" with that she walked off.

'Best friend… is that all you ever think of me as?' TK thought to himself as he stared at the picture of Kari.
