A/N:

WHOO! Actually updated this earlier than I thought I would. I would like to say thanks for those who have reviewed.

ANNOUNCEMENT TO Koumi fans out there:

I never said there wasn't going to be any Koumi, now did I? I actually like them together, I just want the main focus of chapter one to be TK and Kari. So SPOILER ALERT, SOONer or later Izzy is going to get away from his laptop for a while and have to interact with Mimi. I look forward to writing the explanation for this.

ANYWAY, this is going to be a preparation chapter. Seeing how both of them prepare for their date. Also, I am a GUY, so I am sorry if at some point I have NO idea of what I'm going to make the girls be doing.

Also, if anyone was wondering, last chapter when TK kept making excuses to be alone with Kari. Yeah, I tried to base that off of my own experiences. Though, I was not as successful, I tried.

And guest reviewer, I have not read that. After I finish this, I might check it out. If you say they're similar, I wouldn't want to. Not now anyway.

Also, if you have a question, it'd be easier to PM you than to have to put it out in the A/N somewhere. Mostly because then you will be answered faster, so sign in if you want to ask something that needs a reply. Thanks guys and or gals.

Matt: OtA, I'd love to keep hearing you ramble and all, but I think the readers might be getting bored.

Tai: OR, they might have just skipped all this.

TK: That is true. And what is also true is OtA doesn't own Digimon.

Kari: How about if you read all of this Author's Note, just type in Kari is the Queen when you review and you'll get a shoutout when the next chapter comes out!

TK: And that I'm her king!

Matt: Once again, JUST GET ON WITH THE STORY!

Kari POV:

The rest of school went by quickly. I'd been so excited for TK's and my first date. TK offered to walk me home, but I had decline explaining that I needed to finish my homework and get ready for the night. I smiled the whole way home. I still can't believe the guy of my dreams is actually going out with me.

When I got home, I instantly got to my homework. It wasn't that long, considering I finished a bunch of it when I was helping TK. I was so focused I didn't even notice Gatomon talking to me.

"Kari! KARI! Are you there still? Did the Dark Ocean capture you again? " Gatomon touched my face. "No, you're still there. " She went to my ear and yelled, "KAAARRRRIIII!" That snapped me out of it.

I looked at my partner, "Yeah Gatomon?"

She looked back at me, "Are you OK Kari?"

"Yeah Gatomon, I just needed to finish this homework so I can get ready," I replied.

Curiously she asked, "Why, where are we going?"

"I'm going on a date with TK tonight," I said.

She asked, "So, does that mean you told TK that you love him and he told you the same?"

Quickly I responded, "No Gatomon, it means that TK and I both really like each other and want to see if we belong together."

She lifted an eyebrow. "Together like you and me, Kari?"

"No, together like you and Patamon," I teased.

Her cat eyes widened. "How did you know about that?"

I got up to go for my phone. "TK told me after Patamon told him." I started texting Mimi. "The real question is why have you never told me?"

Gatomon followed me out. "Because I thought you had your own problems, Kari."

My phones beeps and I say, "Gatomon, you know you can count on me, no matter what it is." As I read the text, I grab my jacket.

"Would you have been a waiter for our dates and where are we going?" She jumped on me. "And who are you talking to on your phone?"

Woah, TK did that for them? "Wait, TK did that for you guys?" She nodded, "Also, we're going to Mimi's."

"What for?"

I looked Gatomon in the eyes, "We're getting a makeover."

When I had arrived at Mimi's house, I got a text from TK. It read 'BTW Kari don't go out of your way to get dressed tonight, I don't think dressing well will do well for tonight. Go casual, and I promise, you'll enjoy your night with me. :D -TK' Now why am I at Mimi's then? Ohh yeah, because she told me she'd make TK 'want me' more.

I showed Mimi the text and she said, "Fine, I'll just do your make-up for you." I texted TK that I was at Mimi's and asked if he could just pick me up there. He said OK. Then Sora entered the room, followed by Yolei.

I was shocked honestly, "What are you guys doing here?"

Sora replied, "We came to help you get ready for your first date."

Yolei spoke, "And you're not the only one who can get a date, Kari."

"I guess I'll be all alone tonight." Mimi sighed.

As if on cue, the doorbell rang. Mimi went to get it as we came to see who it could have been. And I tell you, if I hadn't seen it myself I wouldn't have believed it.

It was Izzy at the door on one knee with flowers in one hand and chocolates in the other. "Mimi, would you do me the honors of accompanying me on a date tonight?"

Mimi jumped up and kissed him on the cheek. Soon he grabbed that cheek, making sure it was real.

"I'll take that as a yes," He blushed.

Mimi spoke, "Just give me time to get ready, OK? I still need to finish Kari's face."

"You haven't even done anything!" I protested.

"And she doesn't need to, you look perfect anyway, Kari." TK was at the door. And his statement caused me to blush. I noticed that he had a single rose in his hand. He noticed that I noticed and said, "I thought you might not want chocolate, considering the thing that happened at lunch and my fumbling around and the fact that we're probably going to be having a lot of that soon." I was about to respond when Gatomon and Patamon had made a big fuss about their reunion. They went away to talk, but I swear I heard mine and TK's names.

"TK, I'm not ready yet," I said.

He replied, "OK beautiful, but after I get back from dropping off Patamon and Gatomon, you better be ready."

"Where are you going?" Sora questioned.

TK answered, "They're going on a date and I decided to drop them off to make sure they were going to be OK."

"So no waiter's outfit TK?" I teased. His eyes opened wide. He was about to say something before I say, "Just hurry back so we can go already. By the way, WHERE are we going?"

He smiled "You'll see, Kari."

Soon he went towards Izzy, but noticed he didn't have his laptop with him. So instead Mimi pointed him to the computer room. I could faintly hear him opening to Digiport.

While he was gone, I took the time to put on some vanilla lip gloss. (A/N: Just so you know, I DON'T know if this is a real thing. My friend told me there were flavored ones and that vanilla was a flavor and yeah. Sorry if this is wrong.)

My lips were all vanilla-ey and ready in case TK wanted to kiss me because I really wanted to kiss him. For real this time, not just a peck on the cheek.

Just then my date came back from the Digital world. He landed rather smoothly if I do say so myself. He looked at me. "So Kari are you done yet?"

I answered, "Yep, let's go." This had caused him to smile.

He held my hand and we walked out after saying goodbye to Mimi.

Sora had said, "Have fun guys!"

Then TK yelled, "WE WILL!"

TK was asking why I'd gone to Mimi's and why I had taken so long. In my opinion, that was pretty fast for me. I wonder how HE prepared. He smelled good, as in he showered and got all cologned up. And to think, he did this all for me. I still can't believe it, but if it's a dream, it sure is a happy one.

TK POV (Continuing after lunch):

The rest of the day went by so quickly. Luckily I didn't have practice so I asked Kari if I could walk her home. She rejected my offer saying she wanted to finish what she had to do before our date tonight. This reminded me to hurry up and finish all of MY work. I'd finished a lot of it with Kari, so I didn't have to worry about tonight. After I finished my homework I went to Patamon. He had already ate a few chocolates and asked if he could give Gatomon some. Of course I said yes.

The two Digimon were going on a date of course. They've been together for a while now. On their first date, Patamon asked me to be their waiter so he wouldn't get nervous. I don't know what happened that night, but after that all he needed me for was to open the gate. Izzy made a device for him to communicate with me to let me know when to let him out. This made me remember about my own plans tonight.

"Ohh by the way Patamon, I have a date tonight, so will you be fine in the Digital World with Gatomon for a while?"

Patamon just smiled, "It's not a problem TK! I would say, let's ask Kari to do it, but she's probably your date. Right?" I blushed. "YAY TEEKAY YOU ASKED HER OUT!"

"I know buddy, and I'm glad I did. Do you mind helping me get ready?" I asked. He nodded.

After I showered I remembered that Kari didn't know where we were going so I texted her. 'BTW Kari don't go out of your way to get dressed tonight, I don't think dressing well will do well for tonight. Go casual, and I promise, you'll enjoy your night with me. :D -TK'

I got dressed in something not too fancy, just a normal TK outfit. Patamon sprayed me with cologne while I was fixing my hair. I was done quickly and suddenly I got a text from Kari asking me to pick her up at Mimi's.

So Patamon and I went to a flower shop. I bought a rose for Kari and a daisy for Gatomon. The walk to Mimi's wasn't that long, considering Patamon and I were nervously talking about our dates. Patamon seemed more nervous for me because he thought I might sweat and fail. I thought he was serious for a second before he said he was joking and started laughing. It's what I did when he started dating Gatomon. I teased him about it to let him know I cared.

The door to Mimi's was open so as I was walking I heard Mimi say, "Just give me time to get ready, OK? I still need to finish Kari's face." I noticed it was Izzy she was talking to.

"You haven't even done anything!" Kari protested.

"And she doesn't need to, you look perfect anyway, Kari." I don't know what came over me to say that, but I meant it. I was at the door. Apparently what I said made Kari turn redder than a tomato. I noticed that she was looking down at the rose in my hand. "I thought you might not want chocolate, considering the thing that happened at lunch and my fumbling around and the fact that we're probably going to be having a lot of that soon." She was about to respond when Gatomon and Patamon had made a big fuss about their reunion. They went away to talk, but I swear I heard our names being used in conversation.

"TK, I'm not ready yet," Kari said.

I replied, "OK beautiful, but after I get back from dropping off Patamon and Gatomon, you better be ready."

"Where are you going?" Sora questioned.

I answered, "They're going on a date and I decided to drop them off to make sure they were going to be OK."

"So no waiter's outfit TK?" she teased. My eyes opened wide as I began to think about that day. Patamon was nervous for his first date with Gatomon. Worried that my friend would go insane from the stress, I offered to be a waiter for them. So the rest of the night I served the two Digimon until Patamon had felt comfortable enough for me to go. Before I could say something about it, she said, "Just hurry back so we can go already. By the way, WHERE are we going?"

I smiled "You'll see, Kari."

Soon I went towards Izzy, but noticed he didn't have his laptop with him. It was quite a shock to say the least. So instead Mimi pointed me to the computer room. I opened the Digiport and here we were. In the Digital world Patamon gave Gatomon the daisy. She blushed and I addressed them.

"Guys, be safe OK? I won't be here as early as I usually am," I said.

"We'll be find TK, don't worry. Just have fun with Kari," her partner said.

I looked at them before saying, "Take care of each other and have fun guys."

As I left I could hear them saying, "WE WILL!"

Getting back in the real world, I landed on my feet. That was good, I didn't want to make a fool of myself in front of Kari.

I looked at her. "So Kari are you done yet?"

She answered with her new shiny lips, "Yep, let's go." This had caused me to smile. FINALLY WE COULD GO.

I held her hand and we walked out after saying goodbye to Mimi.

Sora had said, "Have fun guys!"

Then like our Digimon, I yelled, "WE WILL!"

I was asking her why she'd gone to Mimi's and why she had taken so long. She'd been wearing what she would usually wear, like I said to dress casual. She wore her, what smelled like vanilla, lip gloss and how badly I just wanted to kiss her right then. I just knew it in my heart. Kari was the one for me.
