I'm so sorry this took two weeks for update. I can't even explain to you what's been going on.

Light-of-Hope-07– Thank you :) I'm trying the keep the character the same for now as it is my first story plus everyone knows how adorable the two are as little kids! Of course though, all little kids grow up =O
TKariinlove - Next chapter is here! (for some reason I can't type the full of your username and make it show up)
KoumiLoccness - I'm a semi-fan of Koumi... but I really don't see the relevance to my story with that question.
That Moment
'Gatomon, I wonder what you're doing now...'
Hikari stared out the window, watching the droplets of rain hit the glass. It had been over a year since she had seen her feline friend and though they only spent a short time together, Hikari had a strange attachment to the digimon that made her miss her almost everyday. It didn't help that her closest Digidestined friend lived far enough that either had to take the ferry to see the other. Luckily for her, he was visiting his dad in town and would come to see her and her brother with his.
"Kari, don't stay so close to the window! You'll get sick again!" Taichi exclaimed as he came back from the living room.
"Sorry Tai," she replied. 'The window's not even open.'
"Matt and TK are going to be here in 10 minutes; then we'll go to the park. Put on your necklace," he instructed while leaving the room once more.
She sighed as she placed the same old medical alert necklace where it "belongs." Without her whistle, it showed the whole world that she was fragile just by the blatantly obvious Rod of Asclepius symbol against dark red. If there was anyway to make such a noticeable necklace look inconspicuous, she'd like to know. With Yamato coming over, she knew he'd be keeping a close eye on her as much as Tai.
It wasn't as though she didn't like Yamato's company, she actually loved him coming over because he treated her like the little sister he'd always wanted. He was a whole lot better than Jyou, who made her ALMOST feel germophobic with his constant germ facts, or Koushiro, who always paid more attention to his laptop than anything else. She had once tried to see what he was doing on it but he quickly blushed a dark red and shut the screen before she could see anything. Hikari also loved the two girls coming over, especially Mimi, because Taichi always made sure everything was perfect for her visits. She was sure that one day, the two would be more than friends, though Tai always told her she read too much manga and watched too many "chick flicks."
Jumping up when she heard Takeru's voice through the front door, she threw the door open and hugged the boy with all of her might. She always enjoyed the way he smelt, sushi and laundry detergent. She felt him wrap his arms around her and swing her around.
In that moment, Hikari forgot about the world around them and didn't hear their brothers murmur behind them.
Read and review please. :)
