Me: As usual, I don't own Digimon. (everyone turns and stares) What? You think that after not owning you guys for over a month suddenly gives me the right to own you? Ha!
Davis: Rats!
Sora: So, what's this story about?
Davis: Yeah? Who are the couples?
Me: Brace yourself. As usual, I've got Taiora as the main list. (Tai and Sora blush) As the second couple, there's (drumroll; everyone turns and looks at Ken in shock)
Ken: What? Davis does this kind of stuff everyday!
Davis: Not to the point of utter insanity! Even I'M not that cruel!
Me: A-HEM! Anyway, the second couple is…Daiyako!
Davis: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Yolei: What was that Davis?
Davis: (blushes) Uh, well…here! (gives Yolei bouquet; rips off card that says To: Kari, From: Davis.)
Yolei: Aw, Davis…
Me: Now, for the one couple that's bound to get me killed.
Tai: If it's Sorato, you won't even be CREMATED!
Matt: What's wrong with that? OW! (Mimi whacks Matt upside the head; Tai, Davis and Sora laugh)
Me: Thankfully, it's not Sorato. It's (gulps) much worse.
Tai: Don't keep us in suspense!
Sora: What couple is it?
Me: (holds up chair) It's…Daiora. (Dun-dun-DUNNNNNNNNNNN!)
(Everyone gasp in shock; Sora and Yolei pass out while Tai and Davis catch them)
Davis: But-I-ARE YOU TRYING TO GET ME KILLED?!
Tai: You're lucky I'm holding Sora, or you'd be a dead man!
Me: I knew I should've just let them handle the disclaimer, but nooooooo…
Digimon
The Rift between Courage and Love
Chap. I-Unsurfaced feelings finally realized
"GOAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!" cheered Daisuke "Davis" Motomiya and Taichi "Tai" Kamiya. Their soccer team had just scored the final shot and they'd won the game!
In enters Sora Takenouchi, Tai's girlfriend. She ran up to Tai and hugged him tightly.
"Great shot, Tai!"
Tai found the grace to blush as he held Sora close. "It wasn't all me. Davis helped out some, right?"
Davis turned away in response. "Uh…yeah. I've gotta go, Tai. See you guys later."
Davis just didn't understand it. Whenever he saw Sora and Tai together, he felt a pang inside his heart. He didn't understand it at all.
"I just don't get it! The last time I felt this way was when T.I. made the moves on Kari the first day I became a DigiDestined. I thought I was in love with her, but could I possibly love another? Nah…"
"Davis! Hold on."
Davis turned with a smile…that faded slowly as he saw Miyako "Yolei" Inoue running up to him.
"Hi, Yolei."
"Hey. I saw the game. Great job. You and Tai make a great team." Davis noted that Yolei was blushing slightly and her attention was directed toward the sidewalk.
"Thanks, but it wasn't all me and Tai. You actually come to my games?" Davis asked in amazement.
If possible, Yolei blushed even deeper. "Well, I've come to everyone of your games since the season started. Davis, can I ask you something?"
Davis was still in shock from the news that Yolei had come to every single game! He did recover, though. "Fire away!"
"Davis, I was wondering if you'd want to…well, wouldyougooutwithmeonThursday?"
Davis held in his bouts of laughter. "I didn't understand a word you said, Yolei! Repeat the question, but slower."
Nodding, Yolei spoke a bit slower. "Davis, would you go out with me on Thursday?"
Davis face faulted in shock. He couldn't believe his ears! Yolei was asking him out on a date!
"Should I accept and see if I'd have a good time, or shoot her down and possibly crush her heart? Maybe I should see if I'd have fun with Yolei. It'll help me get my mind off of whatever my problem is with Tai and Sora."
Davis cleared his throat. He looked back up and saw that Yolei was shaking, obviously afraid of being rejected. Davis quickly spotted a rose, picked it up, saw that there were no thorns on it, placed it behind Yolei's ear and whispered, "I'd love to go out with you on Thursday."At first, Yolei's eyes brimmed with unshed tears. Then, Davis' answer seemed to reach her brain and she smiled, blushed when she realized there was a rose behind her ear and hugged Davis tightly.
"Perfecto! Thanks, Davis! I promise you won't be disappointed!" Davis was having trouble breathing within a minute or so.
"Yolei…I won't have any fun…if my ribs are crushed!" Davis gasped out.
Yolei blushed even redder as she released Davis with reluctance. "Sorry, Davis! I got caught up in the moment."
Davis realized he had that same pang in his heart, but he hadn't wanted Yolei to let go!
"What gives? I'm supposed to feel like this for Kari, not Yolei! What am I supposed to do?"
"That's okay. So, I'll pick you up at seven?""Seven works with me. See you tomorrow, Davis!" Yolei seemed to float as she left, or was that a result of Davis gazing after her?
"I've got to talk to someone about this! Who do I know that's had feelings for someone since forever, but suddenly found an unknown attraction for someone else?" (A/N: You knew this was coming, didn't you?!)
"Davis? What are you doing here? Tai's going to be here in about five minutes, and-"
"This won't take long, Sora! Really, it won't. Here's the 411: Yolei just asked me out on a date yesterday but I realized something. I think I like her!"
Sora smiled with ease. "And you still like Kari? I went through the same situation when I had to choose between Tai and Matt. I just let my heart guide me to the right decision."
Davis blushed slightly and shook his head. "Actually, I realized it's not Kari who I've liked all this time, but I don't know what to do."
Sora nodded. "Just go up and kiss her. She may surprise you."
Davis gaped in shock. "You're kidding! Her boyfriend would use me as a soccer ball! He'd use my head as the ball, and my body as the goalie!"
Sora placed her hands on Davis' shoulders. "Davis, you have the Digi-Egg of Courage. Just have courage that things will work out. Tai wouldn't have given you his goggles if you weren't brave enough to pull through any situation."
"You mean I should take a chance? To kiss the one I love and be damned with the consequences?" Davis asked, letting his anger show.
"Yes."
"Fine! Have it your way." Sora smiled confidently. That smile faded when Davis placed his lips on her own. Davis couldn't believe that he'd done it! Of course he knew that Tai would kill him if he ever found out about what he'd done.
"I can't believe what Davis just did! Although, it feels good. NO! You love Tai, not Davis. Why isn't he pulling away?"
"I did it! I did it! I kissed her! I don't want this moment to end."
Of course, it ended when Tai walked through the door and saw them kissing. He dropped the box of chocolate candy to the ground."Sora…?" Tai managed to croak out in sadness.
Sora finally pulled away and saw the saddest thing in existence: Tai with tears rolling down his cheeks. "Tai, I-"
"Don't come near me!" Tai partly regained his composure. "Did I do something wrong, Sora?"
The young girl shook with tears in her eyes, threatening to spill over. Tai thought it was his fault that he'd caught his girlfriend and his successor kissing? Guilt was etched across her features. Davis stood proud, but was a bit scared. He'd known what he was getting into when he kissed Sora, and he didn't regret a bit of it.
Tai didn't know what to do-hit Davis or be brave and not do a thing. "I've got to go."
Sora grabbed him by the shoulder. "Tai, please wait!"
"DON'T!" Tai cried out as he pulled away and ran out of the house. Davis groaned in pain and ran after Tai. Sora dropped to her knees and started crying.
"What have I done? I've just betrayed my boyfriend and kissed one of his closest friends!
Tai must hate me after all this! First it happened with Matt. Now with Davis! What am I going to do?"
