~*~Unsure*Feelings~*~ *~Chapter 4: Love's True Denying*~ By: ~*Hikari*Chan~



As the doctor's voice uttered every syllable of the word, Madison's body got weaker and weaker until she collapsed into her husbands arms tears streaming down her face. Davis stood their motionless and sick to his stomach with fear and sadness, Jason tried his best to stay composed while holding Madison tightly in his arms. "You can't be sure can you.this soon.?" Jason asked meekly. "I'm afraid we are, I know this maybe heartbreaking but the type of cancer she has is called leukemia." "Is that curable?" Madison said in a loud wail of sadness "It is and it isn't." "WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!?" Jason bellowed. "It is if it hasn't spread too far and she does chemo therapy." Davis who had been silent this whole time with anger, fear, and depression stared at the doctor his eyes full of tears. "Can I go see her.?" He asked in a hushed voice. "You're not a family mem." he was cut off by Jason. "He is her best friend, let him go see her." "Well she's asleep" the doctor said in a snooty voice. This angered Jason to the point that he lashed out. "Listen Doctor", he glanced down at the doctors name tag for a moment, "Sawyer, he wants to see his best friend, I want to see my daughter regardless of weather she's asleep or not now what room is she in?" Jason voice was cold and eerie. The doctor was taken back by this and just barley got the room number and sector out of his mouth.

Madison walked over to Kari who was still cradling Alice in her arms in awe that something so small could bring so much joy to someone's life. Mascara marks had stained Madison's red cheeks and dark black circles were enlarged underneath Madison's eyes. "K-K-K-Kari darling, would you mind watching Madison until tomorrow?" Kari knew that if a mother of a 4 week old was asking her to watch her baby, for a night then something serious was wrong. "No, I don't mind." "Oh, thank you so much, Oh! Gosh..what about Nathan." "I'll watch him for you if you like." "Would you?" "I'd love to." "Alright here are the keys to the house, you can spend the night at our house, and we'll be home by noon tomorrow." Kari nodded, in replay and Madison was just about half way out the door of the waiting room when Kari approached her. "I hope she feels better." Madison's eyes showed signs of tears; she nodded and hugged Kari then exited the waiting room.

Kari walked back to the group slowly rocking Alice gently in her arms as she did. "Taichi, I'm going to spend the night at the Jones house, Madison wanted me to watch Alice and Nathan for her, and can you tell mom and dad that's where I'll be?" "Sure, but that's a lot of responsibility, don't you want someone to be with you?" Kari nodded and sighed. "Is anyone willing to spend the night with me?" "I will" Takeru stood up and put his hand on her shoulder. "Oh, no you don't Takashi. what ever you have planned in that sick mind of yours no..." "Taichi, we'll be fine he'll sleep in Alissa's room and I'll sleep in the master bedroom." "And I'll come a long just to make sure they don't do anything." Miyoko bubbled. "Well if Yolie's going I'll go to!" Mimi blurted out. "Well I'll just go for to make sure Takeru doesn't get himself into a lot of trouble, besides all those girls and one guy might be kind of hard for a guy you know." "Your right Matt, I think I better come to, to make sure Kari is a good girl, and so should Sora cause ummm she understands girls." "We'll if everyone else is going; I should go just to make everything even I.err the guy to girl ratio."

"Where will you all sleep?" Kari asked rather worried about the situation. "Umm.well the Jones have 4 bedrooms." Matt pointed out. "How about we sleep couple with our umm...girlfriends or boyfriends what have you...." Taichi asked hoping his suggestion wouldn't get slammed and Sora wouldn't be mad for suggesting it. No one said anything for a few seconds after the comment. Until Mimi spoke,"but where will Davis sleep?" Matt's eyes bulged he couldn't believe she agreed to it. "Mimi, he's staying at the hospital all night." Kari said quietly.

"Alright everyone, go home pick your clothing up for the night and tomorrow and meet Takeru and I at the house, I have the key I'll unlock it when you arrive." Everyone agreed.

While everyone is getting ready to go to the "sleep over." Davis is sitting beside Alissa. He had been sitting there for what seemed like hours waiting for her to wake up and talk to him but had only been minutes. Mr. & Mrs. Jones sat along the side of Davis. Madison was holding Alissa's hand.

"So Davis, I hear you're taking my girl to the turn around dance." Jason asked trying to start conversation. "Well sorta, it's the girls taking the guys to the dance." "Oh, I understand." "So are you two an item or anything.?" Davis began to get a little nervous with every question. "Umm.no were not." "Well if you ever do take my daughter out or become a couple with her." Davis stared to get visible nervous. "We'd embrace it. You're the best thing that happened to her, ever science she met you in the middle of eighth grade, she's been a better person." "How so?" "Well for one thing her depression has cleared up, she no longer wants to commit suicide, she-" "What about her committing suicide??" "You mean she never told you?" "No, I never even know she was that depressed." "Well I think it was the fall of her 7th grade year, when she cracked, I guess their were guys making fun of her reading disability, calling her ugly, telling her that she would never have any friends because she didn't deserve them." "Oh, my God, she never told me about any of this!" "She probably didn't want to worry you. You saved her; she probably would be dead if you hadn't asked her out that movie." "What do you mean?" "Well you see that night she had left a note on her bed explaining that she was going to jump off the Odiba bridge, then I don't know." "Wait was it raining out?" "Yes it was." "I remember I didn't know she was going to jump on the bridge, I remember seeing her walk, rain pouring down on her, I came up with and umbrella and I put it over her head and asked her if she wanted to see a movie with Hikari, Takeru, Miyoko, Kaizer, Ironi, and I. She thought I was joking until I told her that I'd pick her up at 6. Then she agreed and I walked her home." "You mean you didn't even know?" "No, if I had known I don't know what I would have done." "She-" Madison was about to say something when Alissa began to stir in bed.

As Alissa and her fan club wait for her to wake up, everyone has met at the Jones's house.

"Alright, Sora, Taichi you're going to share a room with Nathan." Hikari said while pointing to the room. Taichi frowned disappointed but understood he was lucky that he was even getting the chance to spend the night with Sora. "Miyoko and Kaizer you sleeping in Alice's room." Miyoko blushed at the thought of spending the night in the same room as Ken. "Yamma, and Mimi you have Alissa's room and Takeru and I have the master bedroom.

"Hey how come you get the master bedroom Kari?" Taichi said still disappointed. "Because I'm the one who Madison asked to stay here, now its 3:00 in the morning lets all get some sleep."

Everyone went to their assigned bedrooms.

In Taichi and Sora's room: "SHHH Taichi be quiet.Nathan's..not here..?" "What do you mean not here.?" "We'll he's not in his bed." "Great, I wonder if Kari knows this." "I bet she doesn't. Go ask her if she knows."

"Alright."

As Taichi walks to Hikari's room..

Matt and Mimi are getting situated..

"Mimi can I come out of the closet yet?" Matt asked. Mimi had forced him to wait in the closet while she changed into her nightgown. "Not yet I just have to tie something." "Let me help you." Matt had gotten out of the closet and was staring at Mimi. "MATT!" Mimi screamed afraid he might have seen her topless. "What?" "You saw." "I saw nothing." Matt frowned wishing he had. "Really?" "Really." "Alright. I'll be in the closet." "NO, don't?" "What do you mean?" "All I wear are boxers and you've seen those before." Mimi blushed and looked down then realizing that looking down might be bad looked up and blushed even more. "Umm okay. I'll just get in bed then.." "Okay." Matt undressed and blushed a bit before entering the other side of the bed." "This is awkward isn't it?" Matt said noticing Mimi blushing, "Very.but its going to be like this on graduation.only more physical." "Why wait for gradation.when are we going to have a bed like this again and not have to spend money for it." "When we both go to Tokyo University."

"Yes, but will it be as nice looking as this?" Mimi giggled. "You want me?" "Who wouldn't?" Matt said while leaning over and kissed around her collar bone and put his arms around her. Mimi blushed and put her arms around him.

"I guess gradation is close enough." "I think so." "But only if you have condom.." "Uhh.I think I brought one." "Check."

As Matt searches through his bag, Tai is just walking through the door of Kari's room.

Taichi glares at Takeru, and sighs.

"Taichi why aren't you with Sora?" Kari questioned. "Umm.because Nathan's not in the room and we wanted to know if he's here or not or if you even know where he is?" "Oh My! I don't hold on I'll call Mr. Jones." Kari picked up the phone next to the bed and quickly dialed the number to the Jones's cell phone.

In the hospital Mrs. Jones's cell phone goes off to the theme song of Celien Dion's that's the way it is. She had been sleeping for quiet some time now, and was startled by the cell phone. Not wanting to wake her husband or Davis who had some how made his way on the bed and was resting his head on Alissa's shoulder. She gently removed her husbands arms off of her and pulled away going out in to the hallway. "Hello?"

"Mrs. Jones" "Yes, I was wondering where is Nathan? He's not in bed." "Oh, I'm sorry I wasn't all there earlier I forgot that I called a friend and had him stay at their house for the night. Sorry for scaring you." "Oh that's ok I'm just relived that he's not missing." "Me, two, well I think you should get some rest, I'll see you probably at 5 tomorrow, their going to be doing blood tests and lots of medical stuff so I have to stay longer I'm sorry if that ruins your day." "NO that's fine, I'll probably take Alice to the park, and take Nathan to the play ground when he gets home." "Great, well get some rest." "Thanks I will you should too!" "Alright well.bye." "Bye." And with that Hikari hung up the phone and turned to Taichi and Takeru who were staring each other down. "He's at a friend's house." "OOO..okay well umm I'm going to bed." "Yeah me too." "Careful Takashi." "Yes Captain I will kill your sister if I think about anything perverted." "Damn right.now get some sleep." "Good night Taichi." "Good night Hikari, night Takeru."

As Taichi walks back to his room Miyoko and Ken are in bed talking.

"What a night it's been Ken." "I know, first Jon Baker, then the kiss, then Alissa, now this." "Don't you feel a little weird sleeping in the same bed with me?" "I have to admit it is strange..its just like were married." Miyoko giggled. "Yeah it is." There was an awkward silence until Yolie herd a noise. "Hey Ken do you hear that?" "Hear what?" "It sounds like Mimi's moaning." "I don't hear it." "Shhh be quiet and listen." Ken stopped for a moment and listened. "Hey your right." "Ken do you think..she's having.."

"You tell me.she's only moaning ' Oh, Matt, Oh God,'" "Why did we have to get the bedroom next to them.?" "I know.really especially in Alissa's room" "Ken don't get any ideas." "Don't worry I wont until were together for a long, long time." "Good." Another awkward silence filled the room, and sounds of the neighboring room filled the room. "Miyoko. do you think we can compete." "We could win if we were going to do it but were not going to so it doesn't matter." "Yeah, can we umm can I umm." "Can you make out with me? Is that what you were going to ask?" "Umm..yes?" "I suppose it would help defeat some awkward silence." "Alright."

While Ken and Yolie attmpet to kill the awkward silence Takeru and Kari are still changing.

"Hikari, we should get changed." "Yeah I know, but I haven't finished feeding Alice." "Remind me again why we have the baby in our room when she has her own room."

"Because, Miyoko didn't want to hear the baby cry, and I said it didn't bother me." "Okay, well I'm going to change." "I thought you wore boxers?" "I do, I just change them every night." "Oh, well umm. I'll just wait outside then." Kari blushed and was about to get up from the rocker when he put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't I'll change in the bathroom?" "Are you sure?" "Yeah, I mean your still feeding her; I don't want to make you get up." "Thanks." Takeru went into the bathroom and changed, a few minutes later he came out, but a bit too soon, Kari was topless and was searching through her bag for her pajama top. Her Pajama pants were pink with tiny yellow stars on them. She hadn't noticed Takeru, but he had most certainly noticed her, and was humiliated. Even so, he stood there staring at her, with his mouth wide open. Hikari felt as though someone was looking at her and turned her head to the side, seeing Takeru. "AHHH!" She screamed covering her chest. "Kari, I'm so sorry, I saw you and I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't help myself so I kept staring and.and.please don't be mad." "I'm not mad; I mean you were bound to see them someday anyway." "Kari.." "Takeru." Kari grabbed her top and turned around to Takeru. She checked on Alice in her bassinet and grabbed Takeru by the hand and led him to bed. Takeru looked at her amazed, and wide eyed. "Are you sure you want to do this?" "Takeru.I realized something tonight.we have been a couple for years, 7 years as a matter of fact, we just have never done anything physical. So now I'm going to make up for it." Takeru stared at her, this was a side of Kari he had never seen before, the seducing side, the side that really wanted him, and he couldn't complain. Takeru moved on top of Kari and kissed her gently on the lips. "Only if you insist."

While Hikari and Takeru learn about physical attraction Taichi and Sora are in their room.

"Taichi I'm sorry I just can't." "I know, and I won't bother you about it." "Thank you." "Taichi I'm going to sleep." "Alright.." "Good night honey." "Good night love."

The next morning.....

Taichi was up early, well up early considering the fact it had been a long night for everyone, it was 11 in the morning and everyone was still asleep, Taichi was on his way to the kitchen to some breakfast when he herd noises coming from Hikairi and Takeru's room, he slowly opened the door..
