.: Between Friendship and Love :.Chapter 5

Jyou shook his head smiling. He was torn between two… half of himself wanted to join the fun while the other half pointed to him his responsibility as the eldest member of the digi-destinies. He decided than he'd just watch and uh… maybe join a little? Smile sheepishly. Hey! It looks like fun.
Takeru noticed Mimi's evil grin which he knew from past experience means trouble. He sweatdrops.
" Really? I am surprise than you haven't had a girl friend… Or maybe you have had someone in particular in your mind?" Mimi teased Takeru at the same time nudging Hikari.
Takeru blushed red, yes, WAY red (ahem). "N… N…No!!!" he stammered.
Hikari on the other hand was trying to act innocent at the same time blushing.
Yamato laughed. Just like Mimi… she could make anyone laugh. Yamato blinked at the thought. Where did that come from?
Daisuke was fuming by that time. Yeah… you could almost see the fire around him. Taichi threw an uh oh look at Sora who abruptly look worriedly at Mimi.
" Hikari is MY girl!!!" Daisuke shouted.
Silent.
And then Hikari' s soft voice spoke. " I am not your girl," it was soft… and deadly.
Takeru looked at Hikari eyeing the girl rather worriedly. She's really mad… he noted, confused. What is this deadly feeling? It feels as if it was sipping into me. Hikari…?
Daisuke blinked. " Huh? I… I…" I never saw her like that. She must be really mad.
" Uh… guys? Err… actually we planned to go to the Bay Restaurant. Right, Tai?" Koushirou said glancing at Taichi for help.
Taichi was staring at his sister. Oh no… " Huh? Oh… yeah… Right!!" he stammered as Sora nudged him. Taichi knew if his sister got mad it was deadly. And he sense even though Takeru never saw her sister mad, the boy seems to felt the deadly feeling Hikari was feeling. He saw the boy put a hand on his chest and look at Hikari strangely. Taichi snapped out of Hikari' s direction when Sora again nudged him at the rib. " Ow… huh? Oh… Well, uh… Let's go guys!" he said and walked toward the restaurant, which was about 1 kilometer from where they are.
The other followed Taichi glad to get out of the tension, Daisuke in the case hesitantly. Hikari and Takari though still both stand unmoved. Taichi noticed this, but he knew the only one that can soften Hikari at that time was Takeru. So he wisely leaved them. " Be quick, okay?" he whispered to Takeru squeezing the boy' s shoulder lightly.
Takeru nod slightly. He got Taichi' s point although he didn't know why Taichi choose him. When he saw the other was already out of hearing. He walked to Hikari slowly making sure he wasn't disturbing the girl.
" Hikari…?"
Silent.
" Uh… Well, hey… He was just fooling around… You know him…"
Silent.
Takeru sighed. " Look, I don't know how I could uh… improve your mood or anything like that. But, Tai seems to think I can and uh… well, I… Hikari tell me what's wrong," he said putting his hand on Hikari' s shoulder lightly.
Sobs.
" Hi… Hikari? Kari? What's wrong?" Takeru asked worriedly.
" I am sorry…"
" For what?"
" Getting mad…"
" Was you mad at me?"
Sobs. " No…"
" Then?"
" I… I am sorry I lost my control and spoiled the reunion. I didn't mean to… I…"
Takeru put one finger on Hikari' s lip. " Hikari… Look at me…"
Hikari turned her face up looking at Takeru with red eyes.
Takeru smiled. " That's better. Hey… You didn't spoil it. We still have half a day ahead to look forward," he said his thumb wiping away the tears on Hikari' s face.
Hikari managed a small smile.
" You look cuter like that you know!" Takeru said intending to tease and fail utterly when he felt blood rushing to his face.
Hikari' s smile widened. " Really?"
" Uh… well… yeah…" he admitted softly trying to hide his blush.
Hikari leaned closer to Takeru until her temple touched Takeru' s chest gaining a gasp from the shocked boy. Hikari hid a small smile quite enjoying herself as she gain another gasp from Takeru when she slipped her hand around his lean waist. Moving with exaggerating slowness she closed the gap between them, this time really smiling when she sensed the tense Takeru was feeling.
Takeru swallowed. What… in the whole world… is Hikari planning to do with him? " Hikari?" he managed to say.
" Thanks," was the small muffled reply from Hikari.
Takeru relaxed a little patting Hikari' s back lightly. After a moment pushing the girl softly smiling. " We'd better catch up with them."
Hikari nodded. " Um!"
