A/N: Okay, so I've been in the mood for some fluff lately because Story Never Told can come off as a bit depressing at times. This is written for the Tale in Fragments Challenge using the prompt 'fresh' as well as the Too Many Cookies Boot Camp using the prompt 'Breakfast'. This is totally dorky and I plan a bigger fic with his eventually but for now, it's a short fluff story. Also, the twins are 10 and Hika is 7. There's a reason the Digimon aren't there.


Chapter 1: Morning at the Takaishi's

"Matty! Wake up!" Mickey Takaishi's voice echoed through the bedroom as he rolled his eyes. He had short blond hair and looked exactly like his father T.K. was at his 10-year-old age and his twin, Matty Takaishi was much the same way. However, the only thing alike about the twin brothers was their looks.

Matty groaned, shifting as Mickey came into the room. "But it's too early, Mickey…"

Mickey sighed, rolling his eyes. "No, it's not. You know we need to get to school, now come on before Mom or Hika come inside to wake you."

Matty huffed. "You guys are just conspiring against me."

Mickey chuckled. "We know. Now come on baby brother."

"You're only three minutes older than me!" Matty retorted to the 'baby brother' comment and Mickey smiled.

"I know," Mickey said softly. "Now come on."

After some more complaining, Matty did go to get ready. Mickey sat on the bed while he waited for him like always. It was better that way otherwise Mom would be upset at Matty for sleeping in. Despite Mickey teasing his little brother, he didn't want the other to get into any trouble. Hika got poor Matty in trouble enough, after all.

Once Matty was ready, the two brothers headed down the stairs.

"Oh good, you two are awake," Kari Takaishi said softly, a soft smile on her face. "Did Matty sleep in?"

Matty was about to retort to that but Mickey poked him in the ribs, smiling.

"No, Mom, we just got to messing around, so we were a little late in coming down," Mickey covered, sending Matty a withering look. Honestly, he could be so clueless sometimes.

"Mickey's saving Matty again!" Hika sang from where she sat on the table, drinking her juice. "Otherwise, Matty's a huge troublemaker!"

"Oi, you're the one who always gets me in trouble Hika!" Matty snapped and Mickey groaned as Hika stuck her tongue out. He watched his siblings begin bickering and sighed.

"Honestly, those two…" Mickey mumbled and Kari giggled, tousling Mickey's hair.

"They remind me of you and Davis, T.K.," Kari joked to her husband and T.K. laughed, rolling his eyes.

"I can safely say Davis and I were much more mature," T.K. said, sounding almost fond as he spoke.

Kari laughed. "Mature? Right, that's not how I remember it, love."

Mickey sighed. "But Matty needs to let things go. I mean, Hika's still a baby."

Kari kissed the side of Mickey's forehead gently. "It's their way of showing they love each other sweetie. Your Dad and Uncle Davis argued a lot too, but they were the best of friends anyone could be. They'll grow up."

Mickey smiled, watching Matty chase Hika around the room as Kari then whistled into her fingers, causing them to stop.

"That's enough," Kari chided. "Sit down and have breakfast so you can be fresh and ready for school, Matty. Let your sister have breakfast too."

Matty pouted at his mother. "Mom, you never scold Hika. She's the one who started it."

"Matty, just eat your breakfast," T.K. said in a tone much more stern than Kari's, one which booked no argument. "You two are already running a little late."

Matty huffed but silently obeyed without protest. Mickey had to hide a smile as he began his own breakfast. My family...
