"Daisuke, I think that freaky guy's
following us again." Jiyama prodded Daisuke's ribs.
Daisuke groaned, "Jiyama, for the last time,
Takeru's in the same school as us!"
"Yeah but he's creepy!" Jiyama
pouted.
Daisuke ignored her, [Goodness I had no idea
how annoying Jiyama can be!]
Hikari caught up to Takeru, panting.
Takeru quickly hid his backpack containing the
E-Snap behind his back and tried to block Daisuke and Jiyama from view, he didn't
want the secret revealed so quickly!
"What is it?" Hikari peeked around Takeru,
but thankfully Daisuke and Jiyama were both safely in the school building
already.
"No-nothing," Takeru stammered, his heart
pounding. [That was too close!]
"Well, if you say so," Hikari shrugged and
stepped in pace with Takeru as they headed to the school.
Takeru tried his best to surpress the urge to
show Hikari the photo this minute, and triumphantly say, "See Hikari, Daisuke
already has a girlfriend so you should date me instead of him!"
Hikari looked strangely at Takeru. {What's gotten into him?}
~* National Park—again *~
Although Takeru wuz at the bench again, he
was fidgeting excitedly with the photos he had developed, it had five pictures,
one with a close-up on their interlocking hands, another with Daisuke's happy
expression, one with Jiyama's satisfied smile, another with the couple walking,
and finally the last one with Jiyama slipping an arm around Daisuke's
shoulders.
Hikari saw Takeru sitting at the bench
waiting for her, and she strode towards him.
"HIKARI LOOK AT THESE PICTURES!" Takeru
yelled as soon as she got close enough, "Err…just…look at them, okay?"
"Huh?" Hikari took on a puzzled expression
and slowly took the photos from Takeru.
Takeru waited, and tried to muffle the
triumphant beam he had on.
Hikari's jaw dropped, "Oh my gosh, Takeru,
where'd you get these pics? And how'd you
know Daisuke has a girlfriend?"
"I saw 'em on the way to school," suddenly
Takeru wasn't feeling so good about this, [what if she doesn't come back to
me? What if she just broods all her
life and die young cuz of it? That'd be
all my fault wouldn't it? What have I
done???]
"Oh…" Hikari sunk to the bench besides
Takeru, "oh…"
"Um," Takeru peeked at his own handiwork,
Hikari was focused on the snap of the couple.
"Oh, uh, well, I gotta go, Gatomon needs her
catnip." Hikari wiped a tear away, smiled sorrowfully at Takeru, and ran away.
Takeru stared dumbfoundedly at the spot
Hikari had just vacated, [I am such a loser, thinking only for myself.]
~* Hikari's Room *~
Hikari buried her face in her pillow, {Face
it, Kamiya, Daisuke found another girl. It's your own fault for teasing him while he liked you in the first
place. I'll say you deserved it…hey
what's this in my hand?} she was gripping the photos of Daisuke and Jiyama in
her palm.
Outraged, she tore the photos apart, all
except for the close-up of Daisuke's happy face. She smoothed that one out, and lightly placed her finger on her
lips, then on Daisuke's lips. "I love
you."
~* Daisuke's house *~
Daisuke was stretching out in front of the
TV, and suddenly a photo fluttered out from the cabinet Jun was ruffling thru.
He grabbed the picture, "hey Jun, this
yours?"
"Huh? No, I think it's yours." Jun pulled out a porcelain doll, "Hey, I havent
seen this one in years!"
But Daisuke was gaping at the photo.
"What?" Jun stood up and peered at the picture. It was a close-up of Hikari.
"Didn't you use to like her?" Jun asked,
then returned to ripping the poster of Yamato's face up, muttering, "Stupid,
get yourself a girlfriend in America and just leave me here, why don't you?"
Daisuke was mesmerized by Hikari's surprised
expression (a/n- she was caught off-guard when Daisuke took the picture) at the
camera, and the event that followed… (a/n- this was before Jiyama came.)
::Flashback::
(A/n- this is a beach scene)
"Hey Daisuke!" Hikari waved.
Daisuke jogged over, and gave a grin to her.
"Takeru!" Hikari shouted, "Daisuke's here."
Takeru had ran over, and smiled at Daisuke, "Hey."
"Hey," Daisuke replied, and whipped out a
camera, "say cheese, Hikari!"
"Huh?"Hikari cried, just as Daisuke pressed
the button on the camera.
It was a auto-developer (a/n- or whatever
you call those cameras that develop the film right after you take the photo),
so Daisuke instantly got the picture, "Hey, you look startled."
"Well, no duh, you didn't even tell me you
were gonna take a picture!" Hikari laughed.
::End flashback::
[Those were the good times,] Daisuke thought
as he tucked the photo in his back pocket.
~* Takeru's house *~
"Hey, why the long face?" Yamato asked as he
opened the door.
"I made a big, gigantic mistake." Takeru
grumbled.
"Oh, well, that's a surprise." Yamato
answered sarcastically and returned to the kitchen (a/n- he was cooking when
Takeru arrived, and I decided to have them two live together, it's juss too
confusing if Takeru's in another house!!!).
Takeru trudged in and it was only now did he
realize he left the pics with Hikari!!!
"OH NO!" he moaned.
"What?" Yamato looked over his shoulder.
"Nothing," Takeru walked into his room and
flopped down on the bed.
"Hey I'm takin' my E-Snap back okay?" Yamato
yelled from the hall.
"Sure," Takeru mumbled thru his pillow.
"Say cheese!" Yamato suddenly leapt into
Takeru's bedroom and snapped a picture of him.
"YAMATO!" Takeru screamed.
"Hey, look at your face," Yamato snickered
as the photo came out.
Takeru peeked at his photo, it had him in
it, with his mouth wide open in his scream of "YAMATO!" and his hat was off.
"Just to top it off, your hair's messy too."
Yamato said happily.
"Oh joy." Takeru muttered, "just get out
okay?"
Yamato looked hurt, "jeez, it was juss a
joke," and walked out (a/n- he's very sensitive, remember that).
"Stupid joke." Takeru called after him.
~* Hikari's room, three AM *~
"Taichi?"
"Aw, no, go back to sleep Hikari."
"But I need to talk."
"Well, talk to me tomorrow."
"As in, right now."
"Fine, fine."
"Daisuke has a girlfriend."
"…"
"What should I do?"
"Go out with Takeru."
"I know I should but…Takeru…he's
changed. Since when I started getting
interested in Daisuke, he's behaving like someone else, not the Takeru Takashi
I used to know."
"People change, Hikari."
"I know but, I don't want Takeru to change,
I want him the way he is."
"You cant stop time Hikari."
"I know that too. But I still don't want him to change, not if I can help it!"
"If you say so, can I go back to sleep now?"
"Yes."
"Thank you."
"Your welcome, good night."
"Night."
~* Yamato's house, six thirty AM *~
"Rise and shine Takeru!" Yamato flung the
covers off Takeru.
"Juss five more minutes," Takeru mumbled,
tugging the blankets back on.
"It's six thirty!" Yamato tore the blankets
away.
"SIX THIRTY?! Holy cow!" Takeru bolted up right, "Why didn't you tell me
sooner?!"
"And you wanted five more minutes…" Yamato
chuckled, "C'mon, eat the scrambled eggs I made for you."
"Alright," Takeru shooed Yamato from his room
while he undressed. "Hmm, let's see…"
he picked up a green shirt, "naw," a yellow one, "too flashy," a pink one, "eek,
girlish," a navy blue one, "okay, now for the pants." Finally chosen his
outift, Takeru dashed out of his room and gobbled down the eggs, " They're
kinda, um, runny,"
"What you see is what you get." Yamato
retorted as he ate his own eggs.
Takeru rolled his eyes, got up, grabbed his
backpack, and ran out, "See ya!"
"Bye." Yamato closed the door.
~* Daisuke's house, six forty AM *~
"Aren't you gonna visit Jiyama today?" Jun
spooned her oatmeal into her mouth.
"No." Daisuke grumbled, poking at a
particularly lumpy piece of oatmeal.
"Well, better hurry up cuz it's six forty
already." Jun glanced at the Mickey Mouse clock on the wall.
"YIKES! Why didn't you tell me sooner, Jun?!" Daisuke jumped up and slung his
backpack over his shoulder, "Bye!"
"See you," Jun poured the rest of her
oatmeal into the sink.
~* Road to Tokyo High *~
"Let's see…no Jiyama. Good." Daisuke stepped out from under the
bushes, clutching two phony bush sticks (a/n- you know, the stuff that Team
Rocket uses when they're creeping thru the bushes.).
"DAISUKE! There you are!" Jiyama jogged up to him. Daisuke groaned.
"What?" Jiyama looked confused.
"Oh, nothing." Daisuke shook his head, [juss
cuz she's annoying doesn't mean I have to be so mean to her.]
"Is that freaky guy—" Jiyama started.
"He's in the SAME, STUPID school as us,
Jiyama!" Daisuke yelled.
"Oh, um," Jiyama backed off, "I gotta run,
see ya."
"What the heck did you do that for?" Daisuke
asked himself.
Takeru was tramping on the road slowly, he
was certain that he had broke Hikari's heart. [I am so selfish, thinking only for me and not for Hikari's heart.]
Hikari was behind him. She decided to remain silent until he
noticed her. {I guess I earned it,
treating Daisuke like he was dirt. Ignoring him and flirting shamelessly with Takeru. Why is it now that I realize my love for
him? I must be immensely stupid.}
Takeru looked back on a whim, and found
Hikari. Her cheek was wet with tears. "Hikari!"
he cried, and jogged back to her.
"Ta-Takeru?" Hikari looked up, tears
cascading down her face.
"Hikari! What happened? Why are you
crying?" Takeru dabbed a handkerchief at her cheek.
"Oh, it's just that…Dai-Daisuke…"
Takeru froze, "Daisuke?"
Hikari nodded, triggering another fresh
batch of tears.
"I'm sorry Hikari, I was thinking only of
myself." Takeru hugged Hikari gently.
"Oh, Takeru, I know I'm acting spoiled now…"
Hikari sniffled, "I know that Daisuke loves someone else and yet I still want
him (a/n- isn't that close to what Takeru said at the park in Chapter One?)."
Takeru used his left thumb to wipe a tear
away, "it's all my fault."
"Why?"
"I was selfish. I wanted you for myself, I never had one thought for your
heart. I'm sorry." Takeru wiped at his
own eye and found it wet with tears also.
"Takeru, you don't need to apologize,"
Hikari smiled sadly, "I understand what you mean. And I love you."
"You love me?" Takeru stared at her, "then,
why—why did you refuse my love?"
"B-because my love for you is brotherly,
friendly, not loverly." Hikari hugged Takeru, "oh I'm so sorry."
Takeru was taken aback, "Hikari…"
"Oh, I'm so sorry." Hikari said ruefully,
and gave Takeru another hug before running away.
"Hikari…"
Hikari was running as hard as she can from
Takeru, it doesn't matter if she's late for school. Tears trailed down her face and blew away with the wind.
Then she ran smack into Daisuke!!!!!!!!
