Laura woke the next morning to something bouncing on her stomach.
"Wake Up. Wake Up. Come on Laura."
"Tedmon?"
"Yup Yup."
Laura was fully awake then. "Tedmon, when did you get here?"
"Just a few minutes ago. Genni brought me here and then went to drop off the digimon."
Laura picked up her tiny friend. "Well, I'm glad you're here. It makes me feel a lot better about this final battle."
"I'm glad I'm here too. I missed you. You haven't been to the Digital World in forever."
"I have duties in this world too. School, work, a boyfriend."
"How is Matt?"
"Good, you'll see him later."
"And the other DigiDestineds too?"
"Yeah. Did Genni tell all of you what has been going on?"
"Yes and he did inform us of Izzy's battle plan as well."
"Good. Now, one more question. Why did you de-digivolve into Tedmon?"
"I didn't have breakfast before my trip here. So I didn't have the energy to stay in my rookie form."
"I take it then you are hungry."
"Famished. So, what's for breakfast?"
************************************************************************
By mid-afternoon the next Laura was ready to go ballistic. "I can't believe I talked so long with you Cubbiemon!" She had digivolved into her rookie form once she ate. "Mimi and the others are going be here at 4 to get ready for the dance and it is already 3! And I still have to take a shower!"
"Then I guess you better get a move on."
Within the next hour, Laura had gotten her shower and slipped into a button down shirt and jeans. She was brushing her shoulder length hair, which was still wet, when the doorbell rang. At the door was Mimi, Sora, Kari, and Yolei, as well as their digimon and the guys as well.
"I can not wait till tonight!"
"Hello to you to Mimi." Laura said as she let the girls in.
"Tai thought it would be better if all of our digimon were together in case of a disaster. And since the boys' digimon would be seen by Mia if they brought them when they came to pick up."
"That's fine. Hi, Patamon, Gatomon, Tentomon, Gabumon, Palmon, Hawkmon, Veemon, Armadillomon, Wormon, Biyomon, Agumon, and Gomamon. Wow that was a lot of names. Cubbiemon is in the TV watching something. If you want you can join her."
"Thanks." Gatomon replied, blinking her big blue eyes. She hopped off Kari's head and started calling Cubbiemon's name in hope to find her in the exceptionally large house. The other digimon followed.
"Man, I really missed them."
"We all did." comment Mimi.
"I'm sorry Mimi. Sometimes I forget you can't see Palmon as often as the rest of us."
"It's okay. I plan to make up for lost time once the dance is over, and speaking of the dance, we better get to work."
Each girl was carrying their gowns, shoes, and accessories for tonight. Everyone, except Davis and Cody, were meeting at Laura's at 7:30 to go to the dance together. That left Mimi 3 hours to get everyone's hair done.
"Since your hair is still wet Laura, I'll do yours first, then Sora, because her hair is difficult to work with, then Kari, and finally Yolei's. I'm just glad I did mine before I came.
Mimi's hair had been delicately curled and swept to one side. The curls gently framed her face. Tiny pink roses were weaved into her hair.
"Ok that's fine with me. Let's get to work."
(3 and half hours later)
"Laura, do we have anymore hairspray?"
"Yeah, hold on." Laura rushed into her bedroom, trying carefully not to fall over from the high heels.
"Wow, Mimi. You did an awesome job on her." Part of Yolei's lavender hair had been braided and then joined with the ones around it, creating a criss-cross pattern. Then rest of her hair had been curled under.
"Mimi is a miracle worker." Kari added, laughing. Her hair was given a full body wave and then twisted up and pinned to the back of her head.
"Sora's hair looks the best though." Yolei said.
"That was hard to do, let me tell you."
Sora's hair had been spiral permed, which had taken forever since her hair refused to hold a curl. It had taken both Laura and Mimi to do it.
"Tai and the gang is here." Sora shouted up the steps. Before letting them in, she made sure that their digimon was safely hidden. Laura made sure to show Tentomon where the computer was. If there was a problem, the kids would email them.
"We're not ready yet." scream Yolei.
"Yeah, we're doing the fashionable late thing."
"When aren't you?"
"Shut up Tai!"
"Hey all!"
"Mia! Get up here. I wanna see your dress and hair."
"Coming Lucky."
"Can't you come down here?" asked Izzy.
"It's a girl thing Izzy." replied his date.
"Oh."
"Don't try to figure them out Izzy. It only makes things more complicated. I've given up on it."
"And that's why I love you." Sora said, sitting on his lap.
"Did I tell you how gorgeous you look right now?"
Sora laughed and planted a kiss on Tai's lips.
"Kari, get down here and bring a camera. Tai's being romantic!"
"What? No way! Coming TK."
Soon all the girls had come downstairs.
"I must be the luckiest guy in the world. I get to escort the two most beautiful girls in the world to the dance."
"Trying to suck up to me Tai?" Laura asked, pulling on her coat. Tai was going to bring her to the dance since Matt had to be there early to set up to perform.
"Is it working?"
"In my case, no. Sora's yes."
"Hey Joe, want to drive my car again?"
"NO!" exclaimed the group.
Laura and Mia shrugged at each other since neither knew what was going on. "Okay then, how are we getting there?"
"Well, the guys sprung for something."
"Oh? What?"
"Walk outside and see."
Outside, a limo was waiting.
"No way. TK you didn't"
"Sure, wanted to arrive in style."
"Well then Ladies. Your chariot awaits."
************************************************************************
Matt was a little upset that he couldn't escort Laura to the dance. But duty called. Still though, he couldn't wait to see his girlfriend. Suddenly, there she was. Walking in with Tai and Sora. Matt found that he couldn't take his eyes off her.
Lucky's black dress was long , straight, and form fitting. At her hips and lower back, the material had been cut out and black see through material had been replaced in those spots. The neck area to her lower chest had tiny black beads sown onto the material. Her sandy brown hair had been French braided backwards so it could be pinned to the back for her head. Tiny wisps of hair had been pulled out of the braid and spiral curled to frame her porcelain face.
Never had Matt feel so lucky in that moment that Laura was his girlfriend still that moment. He had most beautiful date, hands down. Finally, Laura turned and smiled at him. She made her way through the crowd to find her boyfriend. Matt hopped off the stage and met her half way.
"About time you got here, I couldn't wait to see you."
"Well do you like it?" Laura asked spinning on her heels.
"I like the person wearing the dress much more."
"Good answer." Lucky replied, kissing him deeply on the lips. When she broke away, she asked. "What time you do finish?"
"We play one set which will take an hour."
"That's going to be an eternity though."
"Tell me about it. Hey look, there's Cody and Davis."
"They came together?"
"Sure, they were in the other limo."
"You got two?!" squealed Laura.
"Sure. We have then till 4 tomorrow. And with all of us, we would need two. Tai and Davis figured we should go all out on this day off."
"It was too much."
"Never. Not for you and the rest of the girls."
"You're too sweet." kissing him again on his lips.
"Well if it keeps getting me kisses…but this conversation will have to wait, the band is signaling me that is time to start."
"Okay, hurry though. I'll be waiting for you."
Matt watch as she slipped back into the crowd and made her way to Davis and his date Staci who was in a red dress. Cody was there as well with his data Gaia, who was in green. 'Probably going to say hello. I just hope Davis doesn't slip up to Laura about his gift for her.' When Tai, Davis, and he went to rent the limos, Matt had found the perfect Christmas gift for her at the local jeweler store. He decided to give to her tonight, a more special night. He checked his jacket pocket again and felt the black velvet box on his fingertips. It was only a matter of time.
************************************************************************
The hour seemed to fly by. Never had Matt's band sounded better. Lucky danced with all the Digital Destined guys as well as some others. But her mind never wandered father than a certain blue eye blond that was singing on the stage.
He sung all of Laura's favorites, including "I turn around", "If tears could bring up back", and numerous others. Still though, she wanted Matt to hurry up so she could be in his arms for the rest of the night. Finally, his set ended, and Laura made her way back up to the stage. As soon as Matt could, he was off the stage and went to find Laura. He needed to find her quickly before the next song started.
"Hey musician, I heard from a little birdie that you can't pillow fight. Is it true?"
Matt turned around. "Well if that little birdie happened to have purple eyes and sandy hair, well then I would have to question it."
Laura laughed and slipped her arm around Matt's waist. "You sounded awesome tonight."
"Well tonight is a very special night."
"Really? How come?"
"Well we finally get a moment to our selves."
"And about 400 other people."
"You know what I meant."
"Yeah, I did."
"Good, now would you like to dance?"
"I thought you would never ask."
Matt lead Laura out to the dance floor. Following Matt's band was a DJ.
"Welcome Ladies and Gentleman to the first ever Winter Dance Festival. The first song I'll be playing for you this evening is a dedication song. It's to Unity from Friendship with a promise that they'll be together forever."
"Matt, what did you…"
Matt placed his finger on Laura's lips. "Just listen." Slowly the music began to play.
Mmmmmmmmm
Ooooh, Ooooh
I know great distance still
Remains between us
But there's good reason to hold on
It's the happiest time of the year
Filled with laughter and good cheer
As we watch the snow
Sweet love, you here me say
You've got my heart on Christmas
Inside my soul your love remains
Love's in our heart on Christmas Day
Mmmmmm-oooooh
The days and weeks and months go by
So slowly
We are both wishing it to fly (oh)
As the night begins to fall
Twilight drowns the bedroom cheer
Such rush of joy
Your love it comforts me
And I do believe
Love's in our hearts on Christmas.
Though far apart
As one we pray
Love's in our hearts on Christmas day.
A snowflake melts in your eye
It turns to a tear
But your cheek it stays dry
With your warm smile so near
I have no fear
We're going to make it
Ooooh, Ooooh
I pray
Though far part (as one we pray)
As one we pray (we pray)
Love's in our hearts (love is in our hearts)
On Christmas Day.
Laura moved her head that was resting on Matt's shoulder and whispered thank you into his ear.
"Don't thank me yet."
"Why not? You done so much for me, and not just tonight too."
"Because the night isn't over yet."
"I don't think I ever want this night to be over."
"I'd second that notion. But unless you can control time."
"It will end." Laura said a bit dejectedly.
"Unfortunately, but I think I have something that will help you remember the night better."
"Oh?"
Matt reached into his pocket and pulled out the black box. He handed it to Lucky. "Merry Christmas, my Rukula."
"Rukula?" Laura asked, opening the box. "Oh Matt."
"It means Lucky in Japanese. Do you like it?"
"I love it." Inside the box was a beautiful silver necklace with a snowflake charm. The snowflake itself was made from blue topaz, only the last stone on each branch of the flake was a different color. It was an amethyst shade.
"Thank you so much. Can you help me put it on?"
"Sure."
Once she had it on, Matt and Laura went back to dancing.
************************************************************************
"They really do make a cute couple."
"That they do Kari. I was so scared that I had broken them up forever."
"You shouldn't have been. Their love is unbreakable, I swear."
"That it is."
"You know when I saw the velvet box, I though it was a ring."
TK laughed. "They're only fifteen Kari!"
"I know, but it could have been a promise ring."
"Is this a bad time to say he was originally going to buy her a ring?"
************************************************************************
Lucky felt like she was walking on cloud nine. Never had she been so happy. This night was perfect. Nothing could go wrong. If anything, she should have learned that the fates never let her have a perfect night. 'Maybe even my stalker decided to take the night off.'
'Laura'
Lucky opened her eyes. "Did you say something Matt?"
"No. What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I thought I heard someone call my name." She snuggled closer to him as the danced.
'Laura, you must get away. Please'
'Wow, I must be losing it.'
'You're not losing it.'
'Who is this.'
'A friend. I must hurry though. He could arrive at any moment.'
'He who?'
'Get out of there now. Before he comes for you.'
'He who?'
'GO'
The last thought was so loud that it echoed in Lucky's mind. She jolted from Matt's shoulder.
"What's wrong?"
"I think I had another vision, but not."
"Why do you say that?"
"I didn't see anything, but rather had a conversation with someone."
"I'm going to get Tai. He needs to know of this. Stay here."
"Okay Matt. Hurry."
Matt was barely gone when another voice entered her head.
'Excited to hear from me young Laura?'
'You. Get out of my head.'
'I can't do that. I'm here for a reason.'
'Big surprise.'
'I want our battle. Now. Leave right at this moment before your boyfriend gets back.'
'No way.'
'Do it or suffer the consequences.'
'And what will happen this time? Kill someone?'
'You know me all so well. If your not outside within the next minute, I'll destroy the gym. With everyone still trapped inside. It's your choice. Time's ticking young Laura.'
Laura woke the next morning to something bouncing on her stomach.
"Wake Up. Wake Up. Come on Laura."
"Tedmon?"
"Yup Yup."
Laura was fully awake then. "Tedmon, when did you get here?"
