Friends and Plans

Again I don't own Digimon or Cardcaptors I'm just borrowing them

Chapter 3

The group met back up and decided to find a place to have lunch.

"Where should we eat?" Tai asked

There was a great big discussion on this and with so many talking at once you could barely hear one suggestion.

"Alright enough, I think our guests should choose" Tai said loudly

This caused everyone to quiet down

"Sound like a good idea Tai, I knew there was some brain cells left in that head" Sora said smirking

"Why thank you Sor-hey" Tai said realizing what his girlfriend said

Sora and the others laughed

"Alright, now that you're done laughing at me, where should we go to eat?" Tai asked

"Oh, oh, lets go there" Sakura said bouncing up and down

They all looked at where the bouncing brunette was pointing

"Olive Garden?" Madison said

"Yeah, lets go" Sakura said gleefully

"Alright lets go" Li said

"Then it's unanimous" TK said

The group headed to the Olive Garden. Once there they were seated and got their drink orders in.

"So what did you girls do?" Tai asked as he munched on a breadstick

"Well we had a very interesting talk with Sakura" Mimi said smirking

The said girl was blushing

"What did Sakura say?" TK asked feeling some dread

"Oh nothing that you should worry about" Kari said teasingly

"Really?"

"Well she tell us about the time you had dated" Sora said nonchalantly

"She did?" TK said looking at Sakura

"Yes, and I never knew you so romantic TK" Mimi said smirking

TK blushed

"Yeah, you should give Tai lessons" Sora said smiling

"Hey, I'm romantic" Tai blurted out

This made the other people in the restaurant look at their table

Sora rolled her eyes

"Very smooth Tai" she said

"Sorry" Tai said ducking his head in embarrassment

"Anyway, that isn't a bad idea Sora. TK could you give Izzy a few tips" Mimi said smiling

"Uh, um, well" TK fumbled out

"Oh TK, we're just playing with you" Kari said giggling

"Oh"

"Or are we?" Sora said smirking

TK turned quite red

This made the three girls laugh

"Oh TK, we are just joking, there's no need to worry" Mimi said

TK looked at the three girls he thought of family warily

"Sora, that was downright evil, I'm so proud" Tai said as he wiped a fake tear away

Sora rolled her eyes

The waiter came back and they all ordered, and when that was done they talked some more about pretty much everything and nothing. It felt like everyone knew each other for a long time.

"So let me get this straight? Li used always blush madly whenever Sakura was around" Tai said chuckling

"Well he still does" Madison said

"He does?" Mimi said

"Oh sure, Sakura if you please" Madison said

Sakura smiled and kissed Li on the cheek, which caused him look like a ripe tomato. This caused everyone to laugh.

"That some power you have Sakura" Kari said

"Thank you Kari" Sakura said bowing slightly

"Well I can still get Izzy to be a babbling mess" Mimi said not wanting to be out done

"Meems, Izzy's always a babbling mess with you" Tai said

"But he's a different babbling mess now that we're dating" Mimi said

Tai looked at Sora wondering if she noticed, but Sora shrugged in response

"Well he is, and you'll have to take my word on it" Mimi said folding her arms

"We will Meems" TK said trying to calm the girl before she could get going

Mimi smiled, "I knew you'd believe me TK"

TK just smiled

"So TK, since you are single, you have any girl in your sights?" Li asked curiously

This got the table quiet. Sakura looked at her boyfriend shocked. Now normally Li was quite smart and very tactful, but this was totally idiotic.

"Why do you ask Li? Are you hoping I date Meilin?" TK asked

"No, just wondering" Li said

"Who's Meilin?" Kari asked

"She's Li's cousin, who he was engaged to until they broke it off," Madison said

"Oh"

"Yeah, but thankfully she figured out that li had his eye on someone else" Madison said

"Anyway, I haven't really been on the dating scene, I just haven't found the right girl" TK said

"So who would you classify as the 'right' girl?" Mimi asked

TK tilted his head back thinking

"Well she has to have a nice laugh, like an angel. She doesn't have to be amazingly beautiful, heck she could be plain and I'd think she is the most beautiful girl in the world. She has to like sports of some kind, since I play basketball. She has to handle me hanging around other girls since I'm around you three, and Yolei, so can't be the jealous type. Has to have a good personality is a must since that's what I'd look for first. And well that's about it" TK said

Everyone thought of what TK said and they all thought minus of course Sakura, Li, and Madison that Kari fit everything TK had said. Kari was blushing slightly at this.

"You okay Kar, you look flushed?" TK asked worriedly

"I'm fine TK, just a little hot," Kari said

"Alright"

Their meal came and Tai amazingly showed manners, which shocked Mimi

"I'm amazed Tai, you're not devouring your food" she said

"We have guest, so I thought I should be on my best behavior" Tai said

"Sora promised you something for good behavior, didn't she" Mimi said

Sora and Tai both blushed

--

After they were done and paid for the meal they left feeling relaxed and a bit tired.

"What should we do next?" Sora asked

"I think we should head for the park," TK said

"Why there?" Kari asked

"Because Sakura looks like she's ready for a nap" TK said

"Wouldn't it be better to take her back to you place?" Mimi asked

"No, I think the park will be fine, besides it gives Li time to be Sakura's pillow" TK said smirking

Li blushed at this

This of course caused everyone to laugh

When the got to the park Li and Sakura found a nice shady tree. Li sat down and Sakura settled herself so her head was in Li's lap and fell asleep.

"So cute, I'll call this one Sakura asleep #35," Madison said as she quietly squealed

"Madison, you're a bit obsessed aren't you?" Sora said

"No I am not, I just love to film Sakura" Madison said

The other just looked at one another, though TK was used to the eccentric girl

"Come on lets let them have some peace," Sora said

Madison pouted, but followed

--

Li ended up having to carry Sakura back to TK's as Madison and TK hummed the wedding march as they got closer to the apartment.

"Will you guys stop them" Li said looking like a ripe tomato

"But Li, you're about to carry your bride through the door" TK said trying to hold back his laughter

"Yes and this is such a great filming opportunity" Madison said smiling

Li tried to ignore them, but it was either them or focus his attention on his girlfriend who was snuggled in his arms, it was a no win situation for him.

When finally they got in and put Sakura to bed Madison decided to grill TK

"TK, what do you think of Kari?" Madison asked

"She's my best friend" TK said

"That's not the answer I'm looking for TK" Madison said

"What do you want me to say?" TK asked confused

Madison sighed, Why does he have to be so dense

"I mean, what do you feel for her?" Madison asked

"Well like I said, she's my best friend. I trust her completely. I know that she'll have my back when I need it. She'll comfort me when I need it and I'll do the same for her when she needs it. I usually know what she's thinking, which is kind of freaking to other people, but it feels right to me. I mean we've known each other for a long time so it's bound to happen. Tai and Sora have the same connection" TK said

Madison still couldn't believe how dense her friend could be. Thankfully she was recording the whole thing.

"So you don't have any other kinds of feeling for her?" she asked

"I don't know, I've never thought of her like that. I mean she's my best friend. I know Tai and Sora are best friends and are also together, but for them it's different than me and Kari" TK said

Madison sighed

"Okay, well I'm going to bed, night"

"Night Madison" TK said then headed to bed himself

--

The next day TK and his friends met Tai and Kari at the Kamiya apartment.

"Where's Davis, I thought I'd see him lurking somewhere?" TK asked

"I got a few buddies of mine to put Davis through a rigorous training session" Tai said

"Remind me never to get on your bad side Tai" TK said

Tai just smiled, which TK didn't like at all

The girls gathered themselves in Kari's room for some talk and for Madison to show them something. The girls' reaction to what Madison filmed had mixed reactions.

"So he doesn't like me like that" Kari said sadly

"No Kari, he just hadn't ever thought about it, and Madison did a good job on getting him to think about the possibility" Sora said

"But he sees me as a friend, that's all" Kari said now very depressed

The others could sense that Kari was ready to give up, but Sakura wasn't going to let that happen

"Kari, I may not know you as well as the others, but you can't give up. TK is just like every boy in the world. He's clueless when it comes to girls. I'm sure he has feelings for you. Even when we were together he'd always find a way to get you into our conversations" the brunette said

"Really?" Kari asked hopefully

"Yeah, when TK started school, he'd moan about missing you the most and whenever we were doing something he'd tell us that you'd of enjoyed this" Madison piped in

"I don't know" Kari said

"It either stick with TK or give up and start dating Davis" Mimi said knowing what the reaction would be

Kari shivered at this

"If those are my options, then I'm not giving up on TK" she said

"That's my girl, now let's see if we can knock some sense into TK" Mimi said thrusting her fist in the air

"It gives me a chance to film your confessions" Madison said with stars in her eyes

Maybe this wasn't a good idea Kari thought

--

Meanwhile the guys had their own plans to knock some sense into TK

"Say Tai, if you had to chose someone to take care of Kari who would it be TK or Davis?" Li asked out of the blue

Tai looked at Li for a few minutes then a light bulb went off

"Well if I had to choose, it would be TK" Tai said

"Me? Why would you pick me, Tai?" TK asked

"Because I know you'd put Kari's well being above your own" Tai said

"Yeah, but Davis would do the same" TK countered

"I agree with you on that, but you wouldn't baby her like Davis would. You would still let her be her own person and support her. Davis would smother her and she'd get annoyed with his ever-constant presence" Tai said

TK sat in thought, he never really thought about the differences between him and Davis when it came to Kari. He respected Kari and knew she was a very strong person and all she needed was support, that's all. He'd let her run her own life and cause little interference. As for Davis, he's seen how he looms over her like she can't do the simplest things. Davis was a good guy, but was a bit obsessive when it came to Kari. Davis would be calling her and hounding her to make sure she was fine. He kind of sis that already, though on a very small scale since Davis knew Tai would pound him if he annoyed Kari too much.

"So TK, if anything happens to me can I trust you to take care of Kari for me?" Tai asked

TK's eyes widen, "I thought this just hypothetical?"

"No it isn't, I Tai Kamiya ask TK Takaishi to take care of my sister Kari Kamiya should anything happen to me, do you accept?" Tai said in an official tone

TK gulped, "I TK Takaishi accept and will take care of Kari Kamiya should anything happen to her brother Tai Kamiya"

They shook hands, knowing a promise was made

"Good, now that's done, lets celebrate" Tai said happily

"Celebrate what, Tai?" Sora asked curiously

"Oh just a sealing of a promise" Tai said smirking

Sora gave Tai a hard stare, which meant for him to explain. Tai fidgeted under the stare.

"Well, I had TK promise me that if anything happened to me he'd take care of Kari" he said

"YOU DID WHAT!?" Kari shouted

"Come Kar, I'm not saying that anything is going to happen, but if something does I know you'll be cared for" Tai said

Kari felt embarrassed, but TK came to her rescue

"I would've done it even if I didn't promise Tai, Kari. You mean a lot to me" he said

Kari had tears in her eyes as she leapt into TK's arms

"So cute" Madison squealed as she filmed the scene

Well at least she isn't filming me Sakura thought
