RECAP: In the last chapter Angel ended up in the Season 3 dimension. She made good friends with Henry, but ended up beating up Rika. Impmon wasn't allowed to fight anymore because Angel didn't want him to be deleted completely, and Angel ended up becoming very depressed. Skipping school and not finding a job. Once kicked out of Henry's house she went and stayed with Takato, who had a big crush on her. One day after school, Takato walked in on Angel trying to kill herself in his bathroom, because she couldn't handle it anymore(the digital world jumping). However, after getting out of the hospital, Angel and Takato started dating, and everyone was celebrating Angel's 17th birthday when , sadly, her and Impmon were sucked away by a light once again.
Angel & T.K.'s Song:
I see you walking by
Your hair always hiding your face
I wonder why you've been hurting
I wish I had some way to say
You're going through so much
Don't you know that I could be the one to hold you
[Bridge:]
I'm stretching but you're just out of reach
You should know
I'm ready when you're ready for me
And I'm waiting for the right time
For the day I catch your eye
To let you know
That I'm yours to hold
Angel landed right on her ass, Impmon falling on her lap with a groan.
"Fuck.." Angel groaned, looking around their new surroundings.
"Oye, my head." Impmon moaned, rubbing at his skull.
"Well," Angel sighed. "It happened again."
Impmon looked around. "This doesn't look like the Digiworld to me. Unless, its like the place we just came from.." Impmon looked up at his partner empathetically. "Hey, you look different now! Did you digivolve when you turned 17?" Impmon scratched at his chin.
"What?" Angel looked down at herself, noticing her clothes had changed. Instead of shorts or capris she now had on black skinny jeans. Her shirt was a black long sleeve with a white skull on the chest, and she was happy to notice she had on black and white converse. She then noticed her hands. Her gloves her gone but her nails were long and had black painted tips. When some hair fell in her face she jumped.
"Yeah, your hair is different. I like it though!" Impmon gave her a thumbs up.
Angel pulled out her digivice and used it as a mirror. Her hair was still the same length, black and feathery looking, but she now had long bangs on her right side, that if not pinned back, would cover her right eye. She also noticed that she had a purple streak in her hair, right by her long bangs. She then frowned.
"I don't have my beanie."
"Hey look, some kid-...Angel! Is that Tai?!" Impmon jumped up, pointing over towards a school.
"Don't fuck with me, Impmon." Angel threatened, but her neck snapping to see what he was pointing at. The sight made her heart jump and a grin spread across her face.
"Ohmygod!" She shouted as she jumped up, knocking Impmon off her lap and tumbling to the grass. But Impmon smirked as he watched her sprint towards Tai, soon getting to his feet and chasing after her.
Angel slowed down when two more people joined Tai, one was a shorter boy with short red spikey hair. 'Izzy.' She smirked, but it soon faded noticing the other person. It was a girl, maybe 2" taller than Angel, with short red hair and wearing a tennis uniform. 'Sora.' Angel glared at the other girl, still walking up to the group who seemed to be walking out to lunch or home from school, Angel wasn't sure of the time of day here yet. Sora hooked her right arm around Tai's neck before kissing him. That was it, Angel lost it. She became enraged at the sight. She finished running up the trio.
"Hey, whoa!" Izzy shouted, moving out of Angel's way, already recognizing her. Angel ripped Sora off of Tai while yelling, "Get the fuck off him!"
"What the-?!" Sora said as she got jerked back. A glare first on her face, which quickly turned to horror as a fist punched her in right eye. She screamed, stumbling back, and shielding her face from any more punches.
"What the fuck is your problem?!" Tai got in between Sora and Angel, glaring.
"Why the fuck is she kissing you?" Angel snapped back at him, her hands still in tight fists.
"Um, because she's my girl..." Tai couldn't even finish his sentence, he finally realized who he was arguing with. "Angel?" He looked at her in disbelief.
Angel's face had fallen, and her heart had sank at hearing Tai's words. Her mouth suddenly felt dry and she was speechless. The two of them just stared at each other, Tai taking in Angel's new look and Angel trying to comprehend what was happening. Tai had changed a bit too. He was much taller, so she figured he was older than 14 now, but still had his dark brown messy hair. He looked as if he had gained some more muscle and his voice was deeper.
"Where have you been?" Tai finally asked.
"Um, I think we should take Sora to the nurses office." Izzy commented, who was helping the injured girl cope.
"I thought she was dating Matt." Was all Angel could choke out. Tai bit his bottom lip before sighing and rubbing the back of his neck.
"They broke up about a year ago...we've been dating for about 4 months now. Listen, Angel, you've been gone for 2 years, I didn't ever think I was going to see you again, but I-"
Angel slapped him. Tai was in shock at first, but then glared down at the petite girl, who was already glaring at him.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" Tai asked irate.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?!" Angel snapped back.
"You're the one who ran off!"
"Ran off?! RAN OFF?!" Angel was shouting now and her body was shaking, not just from anger but also from her trying not to cry. She then pushed Tai, who stumbled back, bumping into Izzy and Sora. "I didn't run off!"
"Hey, whoa!" Another person joined the group. He was tall, maybe even taller than Tai, with shaggy blonde hair and bright blue eyes. He was wearing, what looked to be, a fishing hat, tan shorts and a teal and yellow long-sleeved shirt. He got in between Tai and Angel, soon holding Angel back from attacking Tai, or anyone else.
"I didn't fucking run off, Kamiya Taichi! I was sucked into another portal, you asshole!" Angel then laughed as tears started rolling down her cheeks. "And you know what's funny?! I fucking tried to kill myself because I missed you! Because I wasn't happy without you! Fuck this shit!"
Angel walked off the way she had come, wiping the tears from her eyes, Impmon soon joining her side who had been watching from a tree.
Tai's heart had sank when he heard what she had tried to do to herself, and a fire of guilt now burned in his gut as he realized she hadn't left him, not on purpose anyways.
"Attention seeker?" Sora commented. "Can we go to the nurse now, please?"
"Tai, was that Angel?" The blonde haired boy eyed the brunette, who slowly nodded.
Angel and Impmon had been walking in silence as they walked down a sidewalk. The sun had gone away and gray clouds were now overcasting. Angel was staring at the ground as she walked, her tears had dried up, but her face wore a mask of anger. She then came to a stop when someone was standing in front of her. She looked up, and it was the kid from earlier, the blonde with the weird looking hat.
"Where are you going, Angel?" He raised an eyebrow and Angel stared at him, trying to figure out who he was. He noticed then smiled at her. "It's T.K.."
Angel's eye grew with amazement for a moment, taking in all of him. "You've grown up...a lot."
He chuckled. "Yeah. I guess that's what happens."
Angel rolled her eyes at his sarcasm, she wasn't in the mood right now.
"So, where are you going?" He questioned her again.
She shrugged in response then went around him, and continued down the sidewalk, Impmon keeping up.
"It's gonna rain, ya know?" T.K. called after her.
"Good." She shouted back without looking. And as soon as she said that rain started to trickling down slowly. She then heard feet running after her and glanced over to see T.K. at her side, giving her a warm smile.
"What are you doing?" Angel asked as they walked in the rain that was getting heavier.
He shrugged then gave her a wink, making her rolls her eyes at his mocking of her, she held back her smile.
The three ran inside the apartment out of the downpour. T.K. shut the door behind him and shivered. "Never doing that again."
Angel grunted. "Pussy."
"Hey!" T.K. pouted at her, finally making the black haired girl smile.
"Who's here?" A shout was heard from a far room.
"Just me Matt, and Angel, and Impmon." T.K. shouted back.
Angel was looking around, shivering in her wet clothes. "This is a nice place." It wasn't as big and grand as her place back in her dimension but for it being just Matt and T.K.'s, it was a very nice place.
"Thanks." T.K. smiled taking off his hat and removing his shoe.
"Wow. I thought you were joking around." Angel turned around to see Matt staring at her.
He still had his blonde hair and blue eyes, like T.K.. But his hair was now in a more neat style. He was taller too, and his voice seemed more gentle than she remembered. He was wearing a black button up and light blue jeans.
"Hey, Matt." Angel said with a small smile. He smiled back at her with a nod.
"It's nice to see you again, Angel. How ya been?"
She shrugged, averting her eyes from his now. "Eh, ya know, living. Jumping to different Digital World's."
Matt frowned a bit. "That still happening? I'm sorry."
Angel nodded. "Me too."
"She doesn't have any where to stay. I figured she could use our guest bedroom." T.K. chimed in to his brother.
Matt looked from him to Angel, then shook his head while taking a seat at his kitchen table. "You seen Tai and Sora, huh?"
Angel bit her bottom lip and nodded slowly.
"Yeah, of course you guys can stay here." Matt smiled at the lilac eyed girl then down at Impmon. "How have you been, Impmon? Staying out of trouble?"
Impmon snorted. "You know trouble is my middle name." He then smirked at the older blonde.
Matt chuckled. "Patamon will be happy to have a pal over."
"Patamon is here?" Angel was surprised.
T.K. chuckled. "Mhm. For some reason now we can keep our Digimon over here with us. He's probably already asleep, though."
"Does Joe still live around here?" Impmon asked, it was clear to Angel Impmon had missed his old best friend, Gomamon.
Matt half smiled at the digimon. "Joe is away at college right now, its quite a distance away. However, Gomamon is still in the Digital World."
"But," T.K. butted in, "I can take you to the Digital World to visit him soon!" Impmon's eyes seemed to light up.
"Really? Man, thanks T.K.!"
"Wait, you guys can travel to and from the Digiworld now?" Angel felt left out of the loop.
T.K. laughed. "Yeah, us new group of Digidestined can open portals to the Digital World with our D3's from a computer. I'll show you sometime."
Angel smiled. "Wow, that's really cool. Wait, new group of Digidestined?" Angel tilted her head in a way that made T.K.'s heart flutter. He nodded.
"Yeah, T.K. is part of it, along with Kari. There is also three news kids, Davis, Cody and Yolei." Matt informed the former member.
"Are you dating Kari, yet?" Angel abruptly asked, catching the younger blonde off guard. This made Matt laugh.
She smirked at T.K. as he turned red. "N-no. Why would you think that?"
"Seriously? You have, like, the biggest crush on her." Angel stuck her tongue out at him, making him blush more.
"I told you it was obvious, little brother." Matt got up, patting his brother on the back before making his way to the back of the apartment. "I'm heading to bed, see you guys tomorrow." He yelled back to everyone.
Angel couldn't help but giggle at how red T.K. was now. She had never seen someone blush so brightly, he looked like a tomato. Her sweet, sexy giggle didn't make matters any better for the poor boy. Angel decided to put the poor kid out of his misery.
"So, how old are you now?" She removed her converse as she waited for an answer.
T.K.'s blush started to fade away, slowly. "I actually just turned 15, three days ago."
"Really? What day is it today?" Angel's bangs fell in her face as she tilted her head at the blonde cutie.
"August 30th."
"Really? That's so weird. The years must be different though in different wolrds...my birthday was yesterday. I'm 17 now." She watched as Impmon climbed up on the couch and snuggled against a fluffy pillow.
"I never knew our birthday's were so close." T.K. commented with a smile.
Angel nodded. "Yeah..so are ya gonna show me to my room, or what?"
T.K. nodded. "Yeah, sorry."
The next morning Angel woke to sunlight in her face. She rolled out of bed and noticed her clothes in a neat pile on a desk. They had been cleaned for her. She slipped everything back on then made her way out to the kitchen, where she found Matt, sitting at the table drinking a cup of coffee, and reading the newspaper.
"I didn't know you knew how to read now." She said sarcastically as she joined him at the table.
He smirked at her. "Very funny."
She wrinkled her nose at him playfully, then looked over at a still passed out Impmon. She smiled at the scene.
"Would you like some coffee?" Matt offered, standing up with his own mug to refill.
Angel nodded. "Yes please. Cream and sugar. Heavy on the sugar."
Matt chuckled and grabbed a mug out of the cupboard for her.
"So, what are you reading about anyway? Anything good?" Angel asked, as she pulled the newspaper over so she could read it.
"Just reviews on my band." He answered as he finished with his cup, then moving on to make hers.
She noticed the picture of Matt and his band and then a whole article about them. "Wow! That band thing really worked out for ya, huh?" Angel smiled up at Matt as he handed her, her cup of coffee.
He smiled sitting back down. "Yeah, it has. That's why I can afford this place for me and T.K.. I have a concert tonight, that's why I was just checking up. Seeing if it was sold out yet."
"Nice!" Angel gave him a wink and he smirked.
"You should come. You might like us." He then handed her a ticket.
She grinned looking down at it. "Totally!
"Awesome. Well, I have to head out for practice and such. Also, have this." Matt brought over a black leather jacket and placed it on Angel's shoulders. "For next time you decide to get caught in the rain." He then headed out the door.
Angel smiled running a hand over a sleeve of the leather jacket. 'Sweet!'
Angel looked up when she heard a yawn.
"You're up early." T.K. mumbled through his yawn, holding a half sleeping Patamon in his arms.
Angel grinned. "Hi there, Patamon! And by the way, its not even that early."
Patamon rubbed at his eyes then smiled, realizing it wasn't a dream. "Angel! It is you!"
Angel giggled. "In the flesh."
Patamon laughed happily. "It's so good to see you again."
Angel smiled, noticing as T.K. stared at her new leather jacket. She smirked, pondering what he was thinking.
"I thought I heard the pipsqueak." Impmon jumped up on the chair Matt had been previously sitting in, and gave Patamon a smirk.
"Did Matt give you that?" T.K. finally asked.
Angel nodded, touching the leather as she spoke. "Yeah, isn't it cool? Said its for if I want to go walking in the rain again." She laughed then picked up her ticket. "He also gave me this. Is he any good, or should I sell it?" She smirked at the young blonde, tilting her head.
T.K. smirked at her last comment but shook his head. "Nah, they are pretty good. I have a ticket too. We should go together."
Angel stood up, slipping on the jacket. "What about Kari?" She gave the kid a look.
"Kari is going to be in the Digital World patrolling at that time with Davis." Patamon butted in, a slight sound of disappointment in his voice. Patamon had always had a crush on Gatomon, Kari's Digimon partner.
"Ah, the new goggle-head? Don't worry about him, I'm sure he's a jerk like the rest of'em!" Angel found a mirror in the hallway and checked herself out.
Impmon noticed her new jacket and smirked. "I'm loving the new style, Angel. Kind of like a female version of Beelzmon." Angel giggled and nodded, her bangs covering her right eye.
T.K. was watching her. "Did you really do what you told Tai yesterday?"
Angel looked at T.K. in the reflection of the mirror. She raised an eyebrow. "Are you calling me a liar?"
"No, no, not that. I just...I was wondering." T.K. chewed at his bottom lip now, not sure at how to word what he wanted to ask or say.
Angel looked down at her hands then face T.K., looking him in the eye. "Maybe that's why this world made me wear long sleeves." She pulled up her black sleeves and revealed her wrists that bared the scars of her past dimensional experience. They were long and deep looking, forever going to be embedded into her tan skin.
Patamon frowned then flew out of T.K.'s arms and joined Impmon in the kitchen. The 15 year old boy stared at the scars for some time before looking up into the 17 year olds lilac eyes. He could see the pain still residing in them, and he worried if the thought of doing this to herself again may rise above once more.
"Don't worry. I'm not thinking of doing it again." Angel reassured the boy while pulling down her sleeves. She then looked at him and gave him a soft smile.
T.K. hoped she was telling the truth. "Good."
"Well then, I'll see you later tonight, blondie." She gave him a wink before scooping up Impmon into her arms and heading out of the apartment.
Later that night, Angel and Impmon arrived back at Matt and T.K.'s apartment. They didn't have a key so Angel knocked at the door. When T.K. answered the door, she couldn't help but be impressed by his fashion choice. He was wearing a dark gray long sleeve shirt that had flecks of black throughout, and his jeans were a dark blue with a rusty color down the legs. He had one some all black sneakers, and Angel was happy he had lost of silly looking hat.
T.K. smiled down at her. "Are you ready?" He sounded excited.
"Oh yeah." She gave him a wink then said goodbye to Impmon as he joined Patamon in the house.
It took them about 45 minutes to walk there, but the weather was nice and neither of them mind the exercise. T.K. enjoyed the fact that Angel was opening up to him and sharing her experiences in the other dimensions. In return, Angel took much interest in hearing about what everyone in this dimension had been up to.
"Well, damn." Angel said as they arrived. a huge mob of people were waiting to get inside to see the concert.
T.K. laughed. "I know, right? But no worries. We have special tickets." He whipped out their tickets he had been holding in his back pocket and presented them to the door man. He let them in before anyone else, making some fans groan and whine.
"I could get use to this." Angel commented as she gazed around at the incredible concert hall. T.K. chuckled as he led the way to their box right in front of the stage. The clicking of doors made Angel look back and notice they were letting everyone in now.
The place was filling in fast and Angel was grateful they were in a gated area. T.K. was telling Angel some of the songs they usually performed and their meanings when Angel noticed the bouncer letting some more people into there box area. She recognized Izzy, but not the boy with short blue hair who had a girl with big round glasses clinging to his arm. Her eyes grew as Tai and Sora walked into the box as well. Her eyes then narrowed as Tai noticed her. T.K. finally realized Angel was no longer listening and looked over. He rubbed the back of his head.
"I guess I should have told you they were coming. But I knew you wouldn't have come." He frowned slightly.
Angel snorted. "I don't even want to know why Matt gave them tickets but they aren't going to ruin our night." She then grinned up at T.K., who smiled back in relief.
Angel noticed Sora and Tai whispering to each other as they looked over at her. The raven haired girl grinned at them then flicked them off, using both hands. Sora looked disgusted, while Tai just glared at his ex-girlfriend. Their faces made Angel laugh and T.K. shook his head with a small smirk. The crowed went wild as Matt and his band came onto stage.
Angel and T.K. were truly enjoying themselves. The music type was pretty much up Angel's ally, being Rock, although she liked screaming in her songs better. Matt's band was ending a song when Angel glanced over at Tai and Sora. Tai was holding Sora from behind and they both were smiling, until Tai noticed Angel looking. Sora, who had looked up at Tai to say something, notice his eyes and followed them over to Angel. Sora glared then smirked, before turning around and wrapping her arms around Tai's neck and started to make out with him. Angel felt her blood start to boil and T.K. got prepared to stop any fights.
But instead Angel yelled over the crowed, "Put me on stage."
"What?" T.K. didn't know if he was hearing her right. He leaned in closer.
"Put me on the fucking stage!" She yelled at him. The younger boy hesitated but then helped her get up onto stage.
Matt watched her walk up to him. "What's up? You alright?" He asked her.
"Can I have a go?" She reached out for the microphone.
Matt seemed surprised but smirked and nodded. "Sure." Before handing her the microphone he leaned into it and said, "Now, let's give a big welcome to my friend Angel!" The crowed cheered as he handed her the mic.
Angel took the mic and faced the crowed. As she started to sing, the band gave life to the song.
"Sometimes life seems too quiet
Into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark
Meant to make me strong
Familiar breath of my old lies
Changed the color in my eyes
Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by
Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me
Left alone with only reflections of the memory
To face the ugly girl that's smothering me
Sitting closer than my pain
He knew each tear before it came
Soon He will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by
Sorrow last through this night
I'll take this piece of You
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As You flew right through me
And we kiss each other one more time
And sing this lie that's halfway mine
The sword is slicing through the question
So I won't be fooled by his angel light
Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me
And up into the stars
Joy will come!"
As she screamed the last three words of her song the crowd went crazy. She grinned and laughed at how much people liked it, she even saw T.K. in the crowed cheering loudly and jumping up at down. She then glanced over at Tai who had been watching her the whole time and knowing the song was about him.
"I had no idea you could sing like that! It was crazy!" T.K. bounced around Angel as they walked back to the apartment. Angel laughed, her hands in her pockets as she walked along. "Maybe Matt will let you join the band."
Angel laughed lightly. "Yeah, let's not get too excited now. We never know when I'll just "disappear"." T.K. could tell something was eating at his friend now. They walked in silence the remainder of the walk home.
Once T.K. unlocked the door, Angel walked right in and went into her room. Impmon and Patamon looked at T.K. who just shrugged. Impmon went in after his partner who cuddle him on her lap.
About 10 minutes later T.K. entered the room with Patamon by his feet and a guitar in his hands. Angel and Impmon looked at them.
"Don't tell Matt about this, kay?" He gave her a small smile then handed her a piece of paper that looked like it had gone through a washer and been crumbled up for some time.
After reading some of the words she looked up at T.K. who sat across from her on a chair and placed the guitar on his lap. "I wrote this for Kari when I was away for the summer in France."
He then strummed his guitar and began to sing:
"And hey darling,
I hope you're good tonight.
And I know you don't feel right when I'm leaving.
Yeah, I want it but no, I don't need it.
Tell me something sweet to get me by,
'Cause I can't come back home till they're singing
La, la la la, la la la,
Till everyone is singing
If you can wait till I get home,
Then I swear to you that we can make this last.
(La la la)
If you can wait till I get home,
Then I swear come tomorrow, this will all be in our past.
Well it might be for the best."
Angel then came in and sang a piece T.K. had marked on the paper as (Female voice):
"And hey sweetie,
Well I need you here tonight,
And I know that you don't wanna be leaving me
Yeah, you want it, but I can't help it.
I just feel complete when you're by my side,
But I know you can't come home till they're singing
La, la la la, la la la,
Till everyone is singing.
La, la la la, la la la."
As Angel's lines ended, T.K. started back up with his:
"If you can wait till I get home,
Then I swear to you that we can make this last.
(La la la)
If you can wait till I get home,
Then I swear come tomorrow, this will all be in our past.
Well it might be for the best."
Angel started to sing:
"You know you can't give me what I need.
And even though you mean so much to me,
I can't wait through everything,"
T.K. cut in:
"Is this really happening?
I swear I'll never be happy again.
And don't you dare say we can just be friends.
I'm not some boy that you can sway."
Then both of them started singing together:
"We knew it'd happen eventually.
La, la la la, la la la,
Now everybody's singing.
La, la la la, la la la,
Now everybody's singing.
La, la la la, la la la,
(If you can wait till I get home)
Now everybody's singing.
La, la la la, la la la,
(Then I swear we can make this last)
Now everybody's singing.
La, la la la, la la la,
(If you can wait till I get home)
Now everybody's singing.
La, la la la, la la la,
(Then I swear we can make this last)
Now everybody's singing.
La"
Angel looked into T.K's bright blue eyes as he stared at the carpet. "She broke your heart." T.K. glanced up at the older girl then looked back down. Angel set Impmon on the bed then moved T.K.'s guitar off his lap, making the boy look up at her. Angel then sat on his lap sideways, hooking her arm around his neck, and then leaning her head against his chest. T.K. slowly wrapped his arms around her and rested his face on top of her head softly. A tear rolled down his cheek.
When Matt finally arrived home he noticed how quiet it was. He checked in Angel's room and there was everyone. Patamon was lying on his stomach on the bed sleeping, with Impmon using his as a pillow. T.K. was seated in the computer chair leaning back, with Angel fast asleep on his lap. Her legs dangling over the arm of the chair, and T.K's arms wrapped around her. The older brother smirked then softly closed the door before heading to bed himself.
It had been a week since Angel and Impmon arrived, and the two seemed happier than ever. Patamon had taken Impmon on visits to the Digital World so he could see Gomamon, and Angel didn't know if she was just happier because she was back in a familiar environment, or because of T.K.. The blondie was a very positive person with a great sense of humor, and it was an added bonus he was adorable. The two seemed to be attached at the hip. Lucky for Angel, she didn't even have to worry about going to school with Tai and Sora because summer break had just started. She also lucked out because instead of going to find a job, Matt gave her one! She became his personal assistant, and the job seemed perfect for her. Especially since Matt wasn't a bossy, asshole boss. A perk of the job was that T.K. could go anywhere with Angel. The two became best friends in no time.
It was a very warm evening, so Angel and T.K. had decided to go down to the beach. T.K. was carrying a large towel over his shoulder as they made their way down to the shore. Angel sucked in a deep breathe of the salty air.
She grinned. "It smells wonderful."
"And its beautiful." T.K. noted, glancing from the ocean to his best friend. He then laid out the towel and both of them took a seat, taking a few moments to gaze upon the stars and sea.
After some relaxing moments of silence Angel spoke. "I feels good to be back."
T.K. looked over at her. "Don't you ever miss home? Like, Koji, your parents..your brother, Vic?"
Angel's lilac eyes stared out at the rolling waves. It really hadn't hit her how she had suppressed the memories of her real life that she long left behind. She wondered now how long she had been missing from there. She remembered Koji yelling out for her before she was sucked away from him, about that special night they had shared together. 'Would he still remember me?' She wondered to herself, lost in her thoughts. She thought about her parents, and if they were still searching for her; an image of her older brother, Vic, popped into her mind. She missed the talks they use to share and the secrets they kept from mom and dad.
"I'm sorry, Angel. I didn't mean to make you upset." T.K. looked at his best friend concerned. Upset with himself for not thinking before speaking.
But Angel looked over at him and smiled. "No worries, dude. Honestly, this place feels like my home. Besides, I like having a sidekick." She stuck her tongue out at him playfully.
T.K. laughed. "Oh, I'm the sidekick? Why aren't you the sidekick?"
"Because your a baby." She teased.
"I'll show you baby!" T.K. reached over quickly, and started to tickle at Angel's ribs.
She instantly started to scream and try to squirm away. She fell over on her side, T.K. seen pounce on top of her, tickling her even more. Angel was laughing so hard her face started to turn red as she squirmed helplessly under the blonde. "Stop! T.K.! Ohmygod!" She screamed out in between laughs.
T.K. finally stopped tickling her, laughing at her, but pinned down her arms so she still couldn't escape. "It's kind of entertaining to see you squirm." He smirked down at her.
Angel tried to bite him, but he moved his arm slightly, still pinning her down. He chuckled.
"You're a punk!" She snarled up at him.
T.K. smiled down at her, his shaggy blonde hair had grown longer and almost covering his eyes as he looked down at her.
"Your lucky your cute." She commented, rolling her eyes. He laughed then rolled off of the black haired teen and laid on his back.
Angel snuggled against him. "I love you, T.K.."
T.K. smiled staring at the twinkling stars. "I love ya too, Angel."
Angel then sat up and looked down into T.K.'s bright eyes. He smiled at her. "What's up?" He asked.
Angel's black tipped fingernail softly glided along his jawline, before she swooped down and placed her soft lips against his. When she pulled away T.K. looked up at her in shock.
"Show me." Angel whispered to him, referring to him saying he loved her too. Which they had always said to one another, but in a friendly manner.
T.K. wasted no time and got on top of the beautiful young lady, pressing their lips back together. Their tongues danced as he unbuttoned her pants, quickly sliding them off. Angel managed to undo his pants as well, him taking a moment to throw them aside. T.K. kissed down her collarbone down to her toned stomach, and around the belly piercing she had recently got. Once down to her panties, he pushed them to the side and began flicking his tongue at her clit. She jolted and moaned in pure pleasure. He was an expert with his tongue, and she soon found herself sweating from him tongue fucking her. He bit the inside of her thigh, making her gasp in pain and pleasure, and she watched him as she came back up and crashed their lips together. Her fingers messed through his silky shaggy hair and she could feel him remove her panties. Her body started to tingle as she felt his bare cock press softly against her opening. They both moaned out in ecstasy as he slowly slipped inside her.
After that night, nothing changed. The two were still best friends and still attached at the hip. Well, there was one change, the perk of being friends with benefits.
"Here, I got you something." T.K. handed Angel a small silver box.
Angel eagerly took it and opened it up. A slow grin spread upon her face then she looked up at T.K.. "It's beautiful! Thank you!" She jumped up hugging him.
"Here, let me help you put it on."
Angel held her hair to the side as T.K. clipped the golden necklace around her neck. A golden heart with the word Hope, and a silver heart with the word Destiny, dangling on her chest. She looked at herself with it on in the mirror, T.K. standing behind her smiling proudly.
"This is a total Kodak moment." She pulled out her cell phone and took a picture of her and T.K..
"Hey, what are you guys doing tonight?" Matt came around the corner in the hallway.
"No plans unless you have some for me, boss." Angel responded grinning. T.K. just shrugged with a smile.
Matt chuckled then said, "I was thinking we could all go out to that new restaurant. What do ya say?"
"Hell yeah!" Angel bounced up and down then ran into her room to change.
Both brothers laughed at her enthusiasm.
The restaurant was quite fancy and the food was delicious. T.K. excused himself to use the restroom, giving Matt and Angel some time alone.
"It's good to see you guys so close." Matt said.
Angel nodded before taking a bite of bread.
"Are you guys, like, dating?" He raised an eyebrow.
Angel giggled shaking her head now. "No. We're just best friends, that's all."
"Haha, well that's good." Matt watched Angel take a sip of her strawberry milk. It was if he was pondering if he should say what he said next.
"Ya know, Tai waited for you."
Angel paused, holding her glass in midair. Her lilac eyes slowly looked over at Matt. "He...did?"
Matt gave a nod. "Oh yeah. He waited a whole year. Even once we discovered we could travel between worlds again he went in search for you, thinking you might be back there."
Angel stared at Matt's blue eyes before setting down her drink gently. "Why are you telling me this?"
"I didn't want you to think he never loved you. And, he never got to tell you himself. I figured since we use to be best friends, its the least I could do for him. Honestly, Sora is the one who finally convinced him to just give up. I think she just didn't like seeing him the way he was then. He was a mess without you, Angel. Don't ever think he didn't love you, because he did. Truly." Matt then took a sip of his water as T.K. rejoined the table.
Angel stood up. "I'll be right back."
"Are you okay?" T.K. looked up at her concerned.
She gave him a small smile and nod, then left the restaurant. She made her way towards the local park, soon hearing rustling in the bushes. She stopped and looked over. Beelzemon walked out from the trees and bushes and Angel smiled up at him sadly.
"What's wrong, Angel?" She loved the sound of his voice, he made her feel safe. She reached up and hugged him.
Beelzemon smirked and picked her up, cradling her in his arms. "Let's get you home, kid."
But Beelzemon had only taken a few steps when a round worm hole opened up in front of him. "Whoa! What the?!"
"ANGEL!" A deep male voice seemed to echo out of the hole. Angel's eyes shot open.
"Koji?!" Angel then screamed as a hand came through the hole and grabbed a hold of her wrist, pulling her through the portal.
So, who do you think Angel is better off with? Koji? Tai? Takato? Or T.K.?
