Dear Diary,
I just had a wonderful date with my koibito (boyfriend/lover), Izzy. We went to the park today and he surprised me by taking me to the most beautiful part of the park, which was hidden from our naked eye. You had to go pass the rows of cherry blossom trees and take the small route down the stairs to get to this wide but small garden of flowers of different colors with butterflies flying everywhere. We stayed there for about three hours talking to each other, telling each other what was happening in our lives. We didn't notice it but soon the sky was already dark and the fireflies were already flying around us. I gestured for us to leave and he happily obliged, following closely behind me. He suddenly stopped and pulled me towards him. He lifted my face to face his and he told me again that he loved me and how much I meant to him. He placed his lips on mine and I let myself surrender to his kiss, staring into his onyx eyes that were filled with extreme honesty, loyalty of his love to me. He quickly separated from me when he realized that he had done something inappropriate, apologizing for the way he reacted and volunteered to walk me home. He was so sweet, so caring, that was one of the things that made me like him. He even helped me set Kari and Takeru up even if he knew that it was going to take up a lot of time, especially with the Computer Festival coming next week and all. He never gets angry only irritated at people... He's so perfect and I love him, I really do but... I don't know but I feel that there's something missing in our relationship. No, it's not from Izzy but from me...
Goodnight Diary, another day tomorrow...

Yolei shifted in her bed as the opening rays of the sun began to enter her room from the opened window. Her mom opened it a few moments back, hoping that the sun's rays would wake up the room's occupant. She covered her face with a pillow and continued sleeping, not wanting to leave the wonderful dream she was having.
"Izzy... Stop that... Don't tickle me..." mumbled Yolei, sighing contently in her sleep.
"Yolei! Yolei! Wake UP!" shouted a loud robotic voice, shaking her awake from her wonderful dream.
"Yolei! Yolei! Wake UP!" repeated the loud robotic voice, making Yolei jump up from her bed.
"Darn! Chichi no baka! (Dad, you big idiot!) Buying this noisy talking alarm clock for my birthday!" whined Yolei, hitting the button at the back of the talking clock.
Yolei tried to go back to sleep but her eyes couldn't stop themselves from opening once more, collecting more and more light.
"Darn! Can't sleep anymore... WHY THE HELL DID THAT DARN ALARM CLOCK RING THIS EARLY TODAY?! TODAY'S A SATURDAY! DARN IT! WAIT-A-MINUTE!!!" shouted Yolei, yawning as she stood up from her bed.
"Hmm... April 27..." mumbled Yolei softly, glancing upon the calendar beside her bed then slowly taking out her planner from the bottom drawer of her dresser.
"April 21... date with Izzy... April 22... test in Biology... April 23... shopping raid with Kari... April 24... take Takeru to Kari's photo exhibit... April 25... test in Geometry... April 26... date with Izzy and April 27..." narrated Yolei as she read her weekly things to do list.
"...OH MY GOSH! I TOTALLY FORGOT! Oh, no! Better hurry, better hurry..." shouted Yolei, quickly running to the bathroom and taking a quick bath.
******
"Yolei's late..." said Takeru as he and Kari stood by the park.
"Yeah... It's strange that she is..." continued Kari, snuggling closer to her new found boyfriend.
"Well... I don't mind..." replied a blushing Takeru, liking every minute he had with Kari that close to him.
"Whatcha doing?" asked a little voice from behind, making the couple separate and turn their heads backwards.
"C-c-c-o-ody..." sighed the couple, "Don't scare us like that..."
"What? I didn't do anything..." said Cody innocently, his face flushed with a very puzzled look.
"Never mind---" replied the couple in unison, shaking their heads slightly.
"Hi TS! Hi Kari..." shouted a voice from behind.
"Davis..." said the couple in unison, their smiles turning into a weird frown-smile hybrid.
"Yolei's still not here, eh? Must have tripped and broke her glasses..." joked Davis, not receiving any laughs from the rest of the group.
"---" said the rest of the group in unison, giving Davis weird glances.
"What? Can't a guy make a joke?" retorted Davis, shrinking under his companions' weird stares.
"That wasn't much of a joke..." said Kari, her face frowning slightly.
"Alright! Alright! Everything for my hime (princess)..." said Davis, kneeling down and kissing Kari on her hand.
"Davis, don't touch my girl..." shouted Takeru, his fists clenched and were ready to strike.
"When and where did she become your girl...?" asked Davis, trying to break what he thought was Takeru's bluff.
"April 14, 2001 (ref. Chocolates)..." replied Kari, earning a big jaw drop from Davis.
"WHAT?! You proposed to her on the day of the concert...THAT'S CHEATING! You knew that I had practice that day... You... you... CHEATER!" shouted Davis, jumping up and down.
Davis aimed his fists directly for Takeru's face and was about to connect when, "All's fair in love and war... Anyway, it has been two weeks now and you still haven't noticed how close they are... Really dumb of you, Davis. Never though that you would be that stupid." said a female voice from behind him.
"Sorry I'm late again..." said Yolei immediately after that, facing the rest of the group and lowering her head.
"Grr... What do you mean all's fair in love and war, huh, four-eyed freak lady from Mars? And what do you mean I'm blind, look who's talking, near-sighted freak!!!" shouted back Davis, his eyes flushed with pure and intense rage.
"I said all's fair in love and war... What about it? It's a quotation we studied. Weren't you listening, you, mud-for-brain goggled-headed copycat?! And for your information, I'm far-sighted! Bet you didn't even know what
far-sighted is." shouted Yolei, not wanting to lose this time.
"Grr... You make me so mad... You want a fight, four eyes?" asked Davis whose mind was burning with extreme hate for Takeru who stole Kari from him and Yolei who made him look stupid. He clenched his fists tightly and lowered his head to control his raging temper.
"Wanna try me?" replied Yolei, her fists clenching to form rock-like projectiles.
"Not another one..." said Cody, hiding behind the park bench.
"STOP!" shouted a female voice, startling all of them.
"Huh?" asked all of them in unison, turning their heads sideways to see a girl wearing a green shirt with her hair exactly like Sora's.
"Hi Takeru..." greeted the girl warmly, giving him a suggestive wink.
"Hi Kari, nice hair today..." greeted the girl, watching Kari's face form a small smile.
"Hi Davis..." greeted the girl, her eyes glaring with a sense of darkness.
Takeru was the first to reply and reciprocated her greeting with a warm "Hi Kagami". His face blushed slightly when she winked at him again. Kari greeted her immediately after Takeru, her usually sweet voice sounding slightly angry and strained. She softly nudged Takeru in the ribs signaling him, telling him something that he already knew. Davis was the last to reply, his anger now gone. He came close to Kagami and began to tell her about Takeru and Kari. Her eyebrows frowned slightly but soon her eyes lit up brighter than ever before and she began to whisper something into Davis' ear. Davis grinned evilly and went to his usual spot beside Kari.
"So... what are you doing here, Kagami?" asked Kari, looking at Kagami with great concern; concern that she was planning something devious again.
"Tai just told me to accompany you and you know... have Takeru... and the rest of you to show me around the place..." said Kagami suggestively.
"I... see..." said Kari, her face starting to make a face.
"Takeru, would you like to show me around? I'm just new here you know..." said Kagami, hugging Takeru's arm and making beautiful eyes at him.
"Um... Kagami... I really can't, I have basketball practice after the picnic. Why don't you ask the rest instead?" replied Takeru innocently as he glanced upon the already furious Kari behind Kagami.
"Let go of my Takeru!!!" shouted Kari, her face flushed with anger and her eyes popping out of their sockets.
Kagami quickly let go of Takeru's hand and began to creep away, surprised with Kari's sudden outburst of anger.
"Thank you..." said Kari, her face forming a big smile once more. She went beside Takeru and began to hug his arm just like Kagami did.
"Everyone in the Yagami family has a weird way of showing how they well... you know..." said Cody, standing behind in the background.
"Scary..." whispered Kagami, not noticing that Davis did the same.
"Heh... heh..." said Takeru with nothing else he could say to them. A weird smile conquered his face and his wonderful blue eyes shrank into two thin black lines.
"Quite possessive, are we, Kari?" asked Yolei whispering softly into Kari's ear.
"..." replied Kari, her face burning up with tremendous embarrassment.
Yolei stifled a laugh and whispering said, "You're not alone, sister... you're not alone..."
A loud grumbling sound suddenly filled the air, startling the lively conversation they were having.
"We're hungry..." remarked the little voices from their backpacks.
"I guess we can take them out now..." said Davis, releasing Demi V-mon from his encasement.
The others did the same, not realizing that Kagami was still with them.
"Food! Food! Food!" shouted the Digimon in unison, their faces all looking at the backpack where Yolei usually stored the food for a picnic.
They were about to storm the backpack when a loud shriek filled the air. All of the digidestined looked around and found Kagami standing behind them, screaming her heart out.
"Oh yeah, I forgot about Kagami..." said Davis, hitting his head with his right hand lightly.
"Kagami... um... stay calm... they're just um..." said Takeru, trying to quiet her down so that people won't notice them.
Yolei quickly grabbed a spare handkerchief she found inside her backpack and gagged a protesting Kagami with it, dragging her away from the crowd and motioning for the rest of them to follow. They quickly packed their digimon into their backpacks once more and followed Yolei towards the cherry blossom trees where Takeru and Kari first kissed (ref. Chocolates). Yolei then led all of them to the staircase which was hidden from you and showed them the hidden garden that Izzy had just shown her yesterday. She lowered her backpack on the floor and released Poromon from it; the other digidestined did as well and began to explore this new area of the park that they have never been to before. Yolei then brought Kagami to a hidden part of the garden, making sure that no one can see her.
"Promise that you won't scream?" asked Yolei, her eyes cold and heartless as she watched Kagami's head nod slightly.
"If you make one loud noise, I'll gag you again and I won't be that kind anymore sister..." continued Yolei as she removed the gag from Kagami's mouth. Kagami sighed softly and quivering, walked to where the other digidestined were.
'It worked! The scary, military type attitude, actually worked!' thought Yolei, snickering at how Kagami reacted to her quite outrageous actions. Yolei then followed Kagami to where the others were.
******
"Hana! Hana! Plenty of Hana! (*Hana- Japanese for flower)" shouted Upaamon, playing around the snapdragons that were scattered on the eastern side of the garden.
"OUCH!" shouted Demi V-mon, pricking his finger on a rose thorn.
"Baka (Stupid)..." whispered Gotamon, "I guess the digimons really are like their masters, right, Patamon?"
"{gobble} {gobble} What did you say Gotamon?" asked Patamon, speaking with his mouth full of food.
"Umm... I take that back, "most" digimons are like their masters..." restated Gotamon, a sweat drop forming on her head as she watched Patamon gobble down food like a vacuum.
"Want some sushi, Gotamon? They're sashimi..." asked Poromon, pulling out a small Ziploc that contained 10 succulent pieces of sashimi.
"Sure..." replied Gotamon, her face lighting up in front of her most favorite food in the world, fish!
******
"I've never been to this place before..." said Kari, scanning the whole garden, which was filled with different varieties of flowers.
"Me, too..." said Takeru, amazed at that wonderful sight in front of him (Kari smiling and the garden, of course).
"Who showed you this place Yolei?" asked Iori, watching Upaamon and Poromon play in the snapdragon field.
"Izzy did... He brought me here, yesterday..." replied Yolei, a blush forming on her face as she remember the events of that day; the feeling of his lips on hers, the feeling she felt when he said that he loves her.
******
"So... Davis... This are what you call digimon?" asked Kagami, after listening to Davis explain to her about the weird little creatures playing around in the garden.
"Yup! Not only can they talk, play and listen, they're our friends too..." replied Davis, watching Demi V-mon play with the rest of the digimon.
"Let me guess, the blue one's yours, right?" asked Kagami, staring at Demi V-mon who was presently gobbling up a whole pack of chips.
"H-h-how did you guess?" asked a puzzled Davis, wondering how on earth Kagami was able to pinpoint which one of the digimons was his.
"I don't know but I just felt that it was yours... I don't know, there was some sort of attraction between the two of us..." replied Kagami, still staring at Demi V-mon.
"I see that you've finally realized the charismatic ability that Demi V-mon and I possess..." joked Davis.
"Dream on buster and if you keep on having that attitude, say goodbye to your dreams of getting Kari to like you..." retorted Kagami, slightly laughing at the corny joke that Davis played on her.
"Ouch... That hurt me so... Ha Ha Ha..." laughed Davis, enjoying the time she spent with Kagami.
"And that cat must be Kari's because I think I saw that cat at her house the other day..." continued Kagami, trying to guess who owned which digimon.
"Right again! Her name's Gotamon..." replied Davis, amazed at Kagami's amazing ability to guess which digimon belonged to who.
"Hmm... I really can't guess who the pig with wings is... Is he Iori's?" asked Kagami, staring at the orange fur-ball that was playing with Gotamon.
"Umm... Kagami, if you want to be in good terms with my friend TS there, I believe that you should stop calling HIS digimon, Patamon, a flying pig..." replied Davis, a matter-of-factly.
"Oops... Don't tell Takeru what I said just now... Please..." begged Kagami.
"Sure..." replied Davis, snickering at the pleading eyes that Kagami was giving him.
"What?" asked Kagami, joining in with Davis' laughs.
"Nothing... It's just that we have a lot of the same habits..." replied Davis, his mind racing with different thoughts.
'We do have a lot of things common don't we?' thought Davis, as she stared into Kagami's auburn eyes.
'What is this strange feeling I'm feeling right now?' thought Kagami, as she too stared into Davis' cinnamon eyes.
"Davis... Whatcha doing?" asked Demi V-mon, staring at the blank expressions that Kagami and Davis had on their eyes.
"Nothing... we were just thinking of something..." replied both of them in unison, blushing slightly before separating ways and converging back to where the others were.
******
Takeru and Kari were seating down by a bench beside the honeysuckle flowerbed where the butterflies were flying here and there, landing on a honeysuckle once in a while. They snuggled close to each other and watched their digimon playing by the snapdragons.
"They really look cute together, don't they?" asked Kari, snuggling closer to Takeru who had an arm around her.
"Yeah... " replied Takeru, enjoying the warmth they shared with each other.
"TK! TK! Want some?" asked an excited Patamon who rushed to Takeru's side, carrying what seemed to be a packet of green candy.
"What is it Patamon?" asked TK, smiling as he watched Patamon rush up to him.
"Here's you favorite candy... Remember, the one you always ate when you were still "young"..." said Patamon, signaling something to Takeru that Kari couldn't seem to understand.
"Oh... I get it... Thanks Patamon..." thanked Takeru, grasping the pack of candy in his hand as he watched the little digimon scamper away from them.
"What is he talking about, Keru?" asked Kari, watching Takeru with renewed curiosity.
"Keru, eh? Hmm... I kinda like that..." replied Takeru, watching Kari flush up like a red beet.
"..." whispered Kari, lowering her head down as she blushed some more.
"Keru's fine... I don't really care what you call me as long as you stay with me..." continued Takeru, lifting Kari's face up to meet his.
Kari nodded solemnly and watched Takeru open the pack of jelly candies in front of her.
"What are those? And what does Patamon mean with *young*?" asked a confused Kari, as she watched Takeru put one green jelly into his mouth.
"Shh... And just taste one..." whispered Takeru, putting one of the jelly candies into Kari's open mouth.
"... It's... Sweet..." said Kari, amazed at the sweetness of the candy and suddenly a thought flashed into her mind.
"I remember now... This was one of the candies you brought with you to the Digital World, wasn't it? I remember you giving it to me one cold day when we were traveling with my oni-san (brother)..." continued Kari, watching Takeru's head nod in agreement.
"You actually remembered... I thought you forgot about it already..." said Takeru, putting another green jelly into his mouth.
"How could I forget... It was the first I found out that you were... um... sweet... to me..." answered Kari, her cheeks lighting up a bit.
Takeru blushed slightly and slowly placed a green jelly into Kari's mouth, trying to move away from the topic.
'He's still so shy, even though we are officially a couple... maybe I should do something to change that...' thought Kari, as she watched his golden-haired prince gobble up the green jellies in the pack.
'He really does have a sweet tooth until now... He's so cute and innocent...' thought Kari as she slowly crept closer to him.
"Keru..." said Kari softly, managing to get Takeru's attention.
"Yes..." answered Takeru, only to be interrupted by Kari placing her lips on his.
At first, Takeru was hesitant to kiss back but soon he surrendered to the kiss and began to kiss back with renewed vigor. He then took the chance when Kari opened her mouth to insert his tongue into her waiting mouth to duel with her yearning tongue.
'That's quick... Never knew Takeru can be so aggressive...' thought Kari, letting herself surrender to the kiss for the first time in quite some time.
Their tongues displayed a seductive dance that ended with a gasping of breath from both sides.
'WOW!' though Kari, 'He improved from the first time I kissed him…'
Kari was then broken off her wavelength of thought when Takeru locked their lips once more, deepening the kiss by pulling Kari closer to him. He placed his arms around her as she placed her hands around his neck, enjoying the feeling of the other body that sat beside them. They stayed that way for some time before Takeru suddenly pulled back, his whole face blushing.
"Gomen! Gomen! I didn't mean to do that... I just couldn't control myself that time... Gomen! Gomen! (Gomen - Japanese for sorry)" apologized Takeru, lowering his head down to face the grass beneath the bench they were seating on.
"That's okay... I sort of enjoyed it anyway..." soother Kari, watching Takeru's face lit up by she said.
'He really is so kind and caring... So sweet... Too Kawaii (Kawaii - Japanese for cute) for his own good' thought Kari as she found herself trapped in a warm embrace.
"Thanks Kari..." whispered Takeru, pulling Kari closer to him.
"Will you love birds stop making out? It's time to eat already!!!" shouted Yolei who was standing behind the bench, scaring the couple out of their wits.
Takeru and Kari separated themselves from the entwinement of their embrace and found their cheeks flushed with a very dark hue of red. They followed Yolei to where the rest were, their arms and legs moved rigidly, caused by their embarrassment. They sat beside each other on the cloth that Yolei had laid on the cool grass patch and couldn't help but snicker when they noticed that Davis and Kagami were sitting beside each other, laughing out loud together. They helped themselves to a pack of chips and noticed that everyone was staring at them weirdly. They looked at each other and then behind them and saw, Izzy with another girl beside him descending the stairs that led to the hidden garden.
She had long black hair reaching to the lower part of her shoulders that flew naturally along the breeze as it passed. She was quite tall, not as tall as Tai and Yamato but taller than Izzy by about half an inch even if she was wearing flats. She walked with a certain feminine grace that helped her carry the lilac dress that she wore. She wore no make-up and yet it did not affect her exquisite beauty which were complimented with her indigo eyes that seemed to carry an expressionless facade like a blank piece of paper. She and Izzy slowly descended down the stairs, talking all the while, with occasional laughs and grins in between their conversation.
"Who is she?" asked Yolei, who suddenly stood up from where she was sitting…
Who is she?… Who is she?… Who is she?… Who is she?… Who is she?… Who is she?… Who is she?…

Author's Notes:
* Not much of a Kouyako/Yolizzy here yet, will come in the succeeding chapters… *
Expect the next chapter by the 3rd week of November, since it's currently on the works…
In order to mix Japanese, Chinese and Western Culture, the Valentine's Day in all my fics would be on April 14, April because it's the month of the cherry blossoms (Japanese), 14 because of the fact that Chinese people celebrate Valentine's on July 7 (7+7) and that Western people celebrate their Valentine's Day on February 14.
Please read and review. Please, I beg of you... {big blue puppy dog eyes like Takeru's} Pweese... Pwetty Pweese... Heh heh... Please R & R!!!!!!
