Hello beautifuls! :D Don't end my life, or else you will get no more chapters from me! Anywho, I hoped y'all liked GirlsLikeeBoys' last chapter. It was lovely, eh? It's five in the morning here. Be grateful that I fucking love you all so much to have spend the last four hours busting my ass to finish this beast. GirlsLikeeBoys almost killed me for the lateness. She keeps her pimp hand strong. I'm stoned, by the way. Not really.
Review replies to chapter 27 (written by GirlsLikeeBoys herself):
Empyrea: Yay I get a batch of cookies! #epicwin! I'm so glad you liked the chapter! I tried my best to sound somewhat like good ol' Natalie. I like the idea of the group getting closer too. And obviously, Tomoki is bomb.
Jennison Silvereye: I loved your super fantastic long review :D It made me smile! Thanks so much for all the praise! Of course I had to being back the good old Kouji v Tamotsu challenges, and a Koukei moment I hope to see more of Tomoki and his maturity soon! Hopefully Natalie can make it happen ;)
Marina Rose: Thanks for the compliment on my writing style! You're precious I tried to stay somewhat like Natalie, but I know I can't really mimic her style that well xD Enjoy this nex chapter!
DephsXylex: Haha, that'd be funny if the haircut caused Tamotsu to insanely want Keiko again. I miss them as a couple :( But I still want her with Kouji. That just me xD Anyway, yeah everyone seems to like the Tomoki-ness in this chapter! I did too. I missed the little guy. Well actually, he's a big guy now :D
Moorbles240: Ohhaiii there you awesome little thing you! This is going to sound weird, but could you maybe change your name back to Caliboy? You're like, my favorite reviewer of Natalie's, and we always refer to you as caliboy even though you changed your name! Im glad you liked the chapter, but theres no way I could ever finish this story for her! She's too genius xD Anyway, I hope you enjoy this next chapter!
ShiningHeart of ThunderClan: You know, I so agree. Izumi and Takuya SHOULD get together so Keiko and Kouji can be together. Seriously, Natalie just needs to make KouKei happen, because it is my favorite couple hands down. Maybe if we bitch and moan and complain enough she'll put them together :D
The house party was a bad idea. Kouji had seen this scenario in so many teen movies, seen the horrible things that happened, but he thought that things would go perfectly.
And now, as he searched frantically through his packed and smoky house for one of his friends, he wanted to punch himself in the nuts.
"Our parents are going out of town for the weekend," Kouji said off-handedly to Takuya during lunch. "I'm thinking about having a party. Tonight."
Takuya grinned. "No way."
"Hn." Kouji watched Izumi talk animatedly to Tamotsu from the corner of his eye. "And I already have alcohol."
The grin grew. "How much do you have?"
"Enough for me, Keiko, Izumi and Michiko."
The grin fell. "What the hell? You picked those three over me?"
Kouji shrugged. "I'm a gentleman."
"Asshole. Now I need to bring my own."
"No shit."
The brunette sighed. "Can I give you money? Unlike you, I don't have a million sources. Both of mine are out of town. Besides Junpei, but he's only good for beer..."
"Give me ten and you've got a bottle."
"I love you," Takuya announced, grinning at his best friend.
"Tell me something I don't know."
It had been two weeks since he'd seen her, and he thought he was going to go crazy. She hadn't shown up to school and he had no idea what was going on. So he worked up to courage to go to the café and see her himself. He missed Atsuko. A lot.
When he got there, Keiko was standing behind the counter. Her eyes brightened and she gave him a giant smile. "Kouichi! The most beautiful face I've seen all day!
He smiled. "I was actually looking for somebody else…"
The brunette deflated. "You hurt me, Kouichi."
He laughed awkwardly. "Have you seen Atsuko?"
"Atsuko?" She blinked.
"Yeah… I need to talk to her."
"Kouichi, she's gone. Didn't you know? She left a couple weeks ago. Apparently there was some sort of child abuse case and-"
"What?" he yelled.
She jumped, surprised. Kouichi never yelled.
The short haired twin took a deep breath and ran a hand over his eyes. "I'm sorry Keiko. You were saying?"
"She… a lot was going on over there. She went to live with her aunt and uncle."
"Where do they live? I need to talk to her. I need to see her. I can drive there and apologize."
Keiko struggled for a moment. "Kouichi, they live in the United States."
He was silent for several seconds.
"The United States?"
She nodded. "They live on an estate over there. She showed me a picture before she left. It's huge… They didn't know about the abuse." She looked up at Kouichi. "I'm sorry."
He shook his head. "She never had a phone. And her address…"
"I have it!" Keiko exclaimed, smiling brightly. "We're going to write each other. I can give it to you if you want."
"Could you do that for me?"
"Of course. It's at my house. I'm leaving in a few minutes. If you don't mind waiting…"
"Not at all."
"Oh, hey Izumi," Takuya said happily, grinning at the blonde girl. "I forgot you work here."
She shrugged, smiling lightly. "A job's a job."
Takuya leaned forward on the counter. "I bet so many nerdy guys ogle you."
Her face went beet red. "S-Shut up! What was it you wanted anyway?"
"Browsing. I just got paid, so I'm looking around for a new game."
"Well, the pre-school educational games are on the rack over there on the right, and right above that is Nintendogs, so-"
"Ooh, a little nasty streak."
She stuck her tongue out. "Just doin my job."
He hummed. "You going to Kouji's party?"
"Of course. You?"
"Yeah. The bastard's making me pay for alcohol."
"We all have to, Takuya."
"No, you, Keiko and Michiko don't. He bought some for you guys."
Her eyes lit up. "Awww! He's such a sweetie."
"No he's not."
She placed her elbow on the counter, resting her chin on her hand. "The thing about Kouji is he's so… comforting. He cares so much more than he lets on."
"Haha, okay babe, you've been spending too much time here."
"Don't tell me you don't think Kouji's a good guy. You're his best friend!"
"It's not like you feel comfortable when I come up to you and ramble on about Keiko."
"Keiko… so adorable." Izumi went starry eyed. "I just want to stuff her between my boobs and never let her out, you know?"
"…No. I don't know."
"You would understand if you spent more time with her. She's so-" The bell that chimes when the door opens rang. "Welcome to GameStop!"
A geeky looking kid stopped dead in his tracks, staring and the blonde. "U-Uh…" He turned and sprinted out.
"Heh. Looks like GameStop's losing business because of your… assets."
"Screw you Takuya."
"It's around here somewhere," Keiko murmured, looking on her desk. "Hmm, ah ha!" She pulled a slip of paper off, smiling brightly. "Here it is!" She handed it to Kouichi.
He smiled slightly. "Thank you Keiko. This really means a lot to me."
"No problem. Now you can write her a letter."
He nodded. "Yeah… I can."
"Hey, don't think about it too hard. Write it whenever you're ready. And I know she'll write you back."
"Right… Thanks, Keiko. I mean it."
She hugged him. "I really love you, Kouichi."
He smiled into her hair. "You too, Keiko."
She backed up and looked at him. "You look tired."
His smile fell. "What?"
"You just look… really, really tired."
"Look, you can't tell anybody, okay?"
"Of course. Your secret's safe with me."
He took a deep breath. "I've been having nightmares… Sometimes, I find that I'm afraid to go to sleep at night. So I don't."
"What are they about?" she asked.
He stared at her. "Duskmon.
"Beer run! Beer run!" Takuya chanted happily, arms full of cans. "This is the highlight of my day."
"The beer run is?" Junpei asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Uh huh. Is Michiko gonna be there tonight?"
"I'm not sure. She's gonna be with Izumi."
"Izumi's gonna be there."
"Then I guess she will be."
"Junpei, have you and Michiko fucked yet?"
The larger brunette coughed and stared at his friend. "What was that, Takuya?"
"Have you had sex with her? It's been kind of a long time, and I feel like it'd be a little crazy if you haven't. Especially with your reputation. Miyu says her friends talk about your huge dick-"
"I get it Takuya. And yeah, we have."
"Really?" he shrieked, eyes wide. "You have? Was she good? Was it good in general? She probably has the perfect form and moans like-"
"I don't think she liked it."
Takuya blinked, noticing the change in Junpei's tone. "What do you mean?"
"She didn't like it. The sex."
Takuya was silent. "She didn't… come?"
"She cried." Junpei clenched the steering wheel. "And she was bleeding."
"What did you do?"
"I stopped. I had to. I couldn't keep going."
The brunette offered a smile. "I'm sure it wasn't that bad buddy. It'll be better next time."
"Was Miyu a virgin when you two went at it?"
Takuya laughed. "I don't know. I don't even know how I lost my virginity to her. I came a little late, remember?"
"Oh, right," Junpei murmured, clearing his throat. "Sorry about that."
Takuya smiled. "Don't be."
"Here we are." Junpei pulled up in front of the brunette's house. "You want me to pick you up later tonight?"
"Nah, I've already got a ride. I'll see you, alright?
"Later."
"Bye dad." Kouji waved. "Bye mom. Have fun on your trip." He shut the door and sighed.
"Are you sure this party thing is such a good idea?" Kouichi asked, coming around the corner.
The raven jumped. "Shit Kouichi, I didn't even hear you. Where'd you come from?"
The older of the two shrugged. "I just have a bad feeling something's going to happen. Considering the fact that we had a Demon Lord attack not too long ago. It always happens when we're not expecting it, or we're separated. I'm just not getting a very good vibe about this…"
Kouji gave his brother a sincere smile. "Everything's going to be fine, Kouichi. At worst, we'll just have to leave the party to fight."
"I guess you're right." Kouichi scratched the back of his neck absently.
"Hey, are you okay? You've been acting really weird."
"I-It's nothing."
Kouji offered his twin a smile. "Hey… if you're shy about this whole party thing, don't be. There'll be plenty of girls, just be confident."
"Right…" Kouichi's eye twitched. As smart as Kouji was, sometimes he could be completely dense.
"I had sex with Junpei," Michiko blurted out suddenly.
Izumi spat her fish out in the middle of the restaurant. "WHAT?"
"Shh!" Michiko covered the girl's mouth. "I just couldn't hold it in any longer!" she whispered. "I had to tell somebody."
"When did this happen?" Izumi asked excitedly, eyes lighting up. "Give me the details!"
Michiko sighed. "Okay. Well, we were in my room and things just started getting heated I guess. We just kept going and I never said stop and I guess it just happened."
"How was it?" Izumi asked, nearly drooling.
The auburn haired girl bit her lip and shook her head. "Not so good…"
"Why not?"
"It hurt a lot. And afterward it was just so awkward and… I guess that's just not how I envisioned my first time. I mean, yours and Keiko's were so perfect, and my older sister's was amazing and I just expected so much more…"
The blonde leaned across the table and pulled Michiko into a hug. "It's okay. Everybody has a different experience. I'm sure it'll be great next time."
Michiko nodded. "Thank you, Izumi." She looked up at her friend. "The next time I see a big pair of boobs, I'll think of your immortal words."
"I can't believe you're going out tonight." Miyu looked angry as Takuya pulled his clothes back on. "Why wouldn't Kouji invite me to his party? He knows I'm with you!"
"Maybe because he doesn't like you," Takuya snapped, pissed off.
"And if your friends don't like me, you shouldn't be with them!"
"Miyu." Takuya slowly turned around, staring at her dead in the eye. "Shut the fuck up. I'm sick of having to choose."
Miyu growled. "If you really loved me, you would've chosen a long time ago!"
Takuya ignored her and walked towards the door.
"Don't you dare walk out on me! Do you know who I am?"
"Yeah, I do. You're the bitch who's ruined everything between me and my friends! Fuck you and your stupid attitude!"
She kicked her legs and began screaming, punching the bed. "No! No! You'll regret this, understand? If you leave, I'll tell everybody about your secret!"
He froze in the doorway. "What?"
"The Digimon secret. I'll tell everybody. Don't think I won't."
"Miyu, you can't." He turned and looked at her. "You can't."
"Watch me."
"Miyu…"
"Come back in here. Now."
Slowly, he complied, going back into the room.
"Shut the door."
He did so.
"Now. Come to the bed."
Biting his tongue, he trudged to the bed, sitting down on the side.
She smiled at him for a brief moment, and in a flash, she slapped him across the face so hard that his head snapped to the side. She gripped his chin and forced him to look at her. "You aren't going out tonight. You're going to text Kouji and tell him that you're sorry, but I'm more important than any dumb party he could throw."
"Miyu, please," he whispered. "You can't-"
"I can't what?" she asked gently. "Go on…"
"You can't do this to me. You can't-"
"Oh, but I can." She pushed him onto his back and straddled his hips. "You love me. And I love you. And if this is what it takes to keep us together, so be it."
Takuya stuttered something unintelligible.
"Aww, don't be upset. You're happy with me."
For some reason, he felt an overwhelming urge to cry or punch her in the face. But he did neither. Instead, he just allowed her to kiss him.
Within an hour, the party was in full swing. The house was filled with people, some that Kouji didn't even know. Takuya still hadn't shown up, but everybody else (minus Tomoki, considering the fact that he was only thirteen) was there and enjoying themselves.
But the best part had to be that Izumi had spent practically the entire night with him. Life was damn good.
His phone vibrated in his pocket. He smiled apologetically at Izumi. "Hang on a second." It was a text from Takuya.
I'm not gonna be able to make it tonight. Some things came up with Miyu. Sorry.
~Fuck you, Takuya.~
"Kouji, I don't feel good," Izumi murmured, falling to the side and landing in his lap.
"How so?" he asked, running a hand through her hair.
She answered by puking on his lap.
"Shit." He picked her up, slinging an arm over his shoulder. "Come on, let me bring you to get cleaned up." He brought her to his bedroom and helped her sit on the bed. "Hang on, let me get you a shirt."
"I want to go to sleep," she murmured.
"I'll let you in a minute." He went to his drawer and pulled out a t-shirt. It smelled clean… Izumi would be fine wearing this. He smirked to himself. Only this.
Of course, there was the dilemma of getting her into the shirt. She was too inebriated to do it herself, so it was up to him, he supposed. He ended up laying her on her back and pulling her jeans off. He had to fight the blush when he pulled her shirt off over her head, the black lacy bra was just… Focus, focus…
Eventually, he got the shirt on her, and she sprawled onto her back. He got next to her, hand on her cheek. "Izumi, you want some water or something?"
She said nothing.
Raising an eyebrow, he shook her a little bit. "Izumi. Izumi, do you want me to get you some water?"
No reply.
"Shit." Alcohol poisoning. It had to be alcohol poisoning. He had to get help! He had to save her! She could die. "Shit."
He sprinted out of his room, pants still splattered with puke.
The house party was a bad idea. Kouji had seen this scenario in so many teen movies, seen the horrible things that happened, but he thought that things would go perfectly.
And now, as he searched frantically through his packed and smoky house for one of his friends, he wanted to punch himself in the nuts.
He saw Tamotsu, but the stupid blonde asshole was drunk, doing shots off of some hot girl's stomach. Junpei had left with Michiko already, probably to have some sick, gross ape sex. Takuya… didn't even show up… He didn't even want to bring Tomoki into this mess, so that left Keiko and Kouichi. It was just a matter of who he found first.
"You know, I've always thought you were the hotter twin," the random girl with the dyed red hair said. She'd noticed him standing awkwardly by the window, so she came over and asked him to come sit with her and a couple of her friends.
He was actually having a really good time.
Atsuko wasn't even on his mind.
"Thanks," Kouichi said, taking a sip of beer. It was only his second, and probably his last. He felt nice, and he didn't want to be drunk.
"I'm really glad I finally got the chance to talk to you." She curled up next to him. "You're so cute… and sweet." She pressed a kiss to his chin. "I've never met anybody like you."
Kouichi brushed the hair out of his face, staring at the feathers floating around the room. "I can't believe we had a pillow fight…"
Atsuko sighed and flopped down onto his bed. "It was fun though, right?"
He nodded. "Yeah…"
She gave a little giggle. "Now we just need to clean this mess up."
He watched as she blew a feather off of her nose and he smiled. "I've never met anybody like you."
"Hey, are you alright? You just zoned out there," the girl whose name he didn't even know, whose name certainly wasn't Atsuko said.
"I'm… fine. I'll be back."
He moved away from her and went upstairs to his bedroom, shutting and locking the door behind him. He ripped a piece of paper out of a notebook and began scribbling on it.
Atsuko,
I'm at this party at my house and I just can't stop thinking about you. I miss you. I miss what we used to be, and I regret not being able to say goodbye to you. I'm so sorry, Atsuko. I'm so sorry about everything I put you through.
Kouichi.
He had to have searched through every fucking crevice and crack of his house, and then finally.
Fina-fucking-lly he found Keiko. She was straddling some dude's lap on his couch, making out with him. Kouji huffed and grabbed her arm, pulling her away.
"What the fuck, man?" the guy, a blonde from the basketball team, demanded.
"You can have her back in a minute," Kouji muttered, dragging the girl away.
"What the hell, Kouji? Let go!" she snapped, still sober.
"I need your help."
"Fuck you! He was hot!"
He stopped in front of the doorway to his room. "And the two of you can have full use of my bedroom if you help me out."
Keiko paused. "I'm listening."
"I think Izumi has alcohol poisoning."
Her eyes widened. "What?" He pushed the door to his room open. Keiko got to the bed quickly, placing a hand on Izumi's cheek. "Izumi? Are you okay?"
The blonde girl pushed the hand away. "Leave me alone."
Keiko growled and glared at Kouji. "Alcohol poisoning, huh?"
Kouji huffed. "She wasn't talking earlier."
"Or maybe your love for her is just making you more worried."
"Shut up."
"She's gonna be fine. She's just drunk." Keiko sighed and ran her hands through her hair. "God, you pulled me off that hunk's lap for nothing. Now I gotta go give him some excuse."
"Not my problem."
"I don't know what all the girls see in you," Keiko said suddenly. "It's not like you're very nice to them."
"My charm."
"But they hang off of you even after they figure out you're a dick."
"Gee, thanks."
"I just don't get it. What do you do?"
"You really wanna know?"
She nodded frantically, smiling brightly.
"Alright…" He leaned close to her. "It's the kissing."
She blinked, her eyes wide. "Kissing?"
"Kissing."
"How?"
"It's a trade secret," he murmured, leaning even closer. "Wanna see it?"
She nodded, shutting her eyes.
"You sure?" His breath fluttered across her lips.
She hummed, parting her lips.
A hand slid into the back of her hair, the other pressing into the bed as he pressed his chest against hers. She gave a soft sigh, hand coming up to clutch his shirt. "Kouji…"
And then he was gone all of a sudden. She opened her eyes, gawking at the way he was leaned back on the bed, smirking at her. "That's all I have to do."
"But… you didn't even kiss me."
"I do that, then wait a couple hours. At that point, they're going crazy."
Keiko huffed. "Pig."
"You seemed to like it."
She shook her head. "I didn't."
Kouji gave a chuckle. "Don't be afraid to admit it. I know I'm good. And I know you want it."
"The only thing I want is in the form of a hot basketball player." Keiko stood up. "Now if you'll excuse me, mama's gonna go get some tail."
"Go get 'im tiger."
Keiko swung her feet, biting her lip as she sat in the front seat of her basketball beau, Akihiko's car. "Do you care if I turn on the music?" she asked.
"Go ahead, babe."
Biting her lip, she leaned forward and turned the radio on. Some local station, playing love songs… She looked up at him. They hadn't done anything, because Kouji was a lying slut and didn't let them have his room. Even if they'd had it, they wouldn't have done much.
He was so cute… Absolutely fucking adorable and-
"Hey, you know how some people have those things?" he asked.
"What things?" she replied, raising her eyebrows.
"I can't think of what it's called… it's when they sort of shake for a second… like our eyes do it a lot. I can't think of the word…"
She stared. "A… a twitch?"
"Yeah!" He grinned. "Thanks doll, what would I do without you?"
She smiled and turned back to the road.
So cute… So stupid…
"I called the Digi-gang together for a reason today… It's about Miyu-"
"Before you start, can I ask you something?" Tamotsu asked. "If this is a Digimon-related meeting, why exactly am I here? I mean, I love you guys and all, but I could be home fighting this headache, but instead…"
"Because you're hot," Takuya replied. "Besides, you haven't been in many of the chapters lately."
"I'm never in any of the chapters, but I never get invited to do stuff," Tomoki said, tapping his chin. "I think it's age-related discrimination."
"Ugh, forget Natalie, she's a whore," Takuya snapped. "But to the more important issue… Miyu threatened to tell about… the Digimon thing…"
"What?" Izumi asked in a raspy voice. She was wearing sunglasses, still hungover. The early morning meeting didn't really do any good for any of the teens at the party. Junpei looked alright, since he left early with his girlfriend, and Tamotsu was only slightly disheveled. Because he's perfect.
"It's really hard to explain. I tried to break up with her and she said that if I do, she'll tell everybody about our situation. I don't know what to do."
Kouji sighed. "Don't break up with her."
"I can't deal with her anymore!" Takuya snapped. "She's driving me crazy!"
"I don't know what to tell you," the raven replied. "You got yourself into that mess, so you can take care of it. Now Keiko and I have to go back and air my house out-"
"Says who?" Keiko demanded.
"Me."
"Takuya," Izumi rasped. "I can help you."
"You can?" the brunette looked insanely happy. "I love you, blondie. You're a fucking lifesaver!"
She looked as pleased as she could with a hangover. Finally, she was going to break Miyu and Takuya up. And it was gonna be an absolute ball.
The buildup to the party lasted longer than the actual party... Fail. But I hope you guys liked it. :D Please read and review. For
So I know I've had a couple similar questions to this one, but here goes. :D :
If you had the chance to make any character do anything or do something with another character/you (and they have to do it, no matter what), what would it be? ;)
Takuya
Kouji
Keiko
Izumi
Kouichi
Junpei
Tomoki
Tamotsu
Michiko
Keiji
Saburo
Miyu
For example:
If I had the chance to do anything with Junpei, I would marry his sweet ass and turn him into my slave! :D
