Now for Davis. I know that some of you may be a little upset with me. It
seems to me that most people are of two minds about 02's "goggle head".
They are ether like me and think that he is an annoying prick who doesn't
know what love is. Or they think that he was really and truly in love with
Kari.
I admit that I don't like Davis, the only reason I can put up with him is because of Imperialdramon. I'm not even a big fan of Vemon. So I did what I did just so I could put up with him. His constantly getting TK's name wrong and stalking Kari are the two mane reasons I couldn't stand him. Now that I've gotten rid of at lest one of those problems I might just be able to like him. Now all I've got to do is figure someway to get his digimon, who is just as stupid as he is, to get off its obsession with Gatomon...

Chapter three.
Michael had stiffened at Travis words. "So you were used by a girl, it happens all the time." It was true, his former leader would know that all to well. It was just that she had used him. They had been friends and he had started to think that they might be moving into something more then that.
Once they had arrived in the digital world this time, she had been more affectionate then ever before. So much so that he had started having hope for something a bit more. And now he had come to find out that she had done it only because of a guy she had held a flame for since she was twelve.
It was the first time he had ever met Joe. He seemed a nice enough guy. But he started remembering some stories Mimi had told the other NY chosen about her time with the Odiba group. He took a look around, seeing if he could identify who was whom from just the stories.
He got "Izzy" right off the bat. The pineapple computer was a dead giveaway. As far as he could tell Mimi thought of him as her little brother. He had met both TK and Kari his first time back into the digital world so he glossed over them not even noticing that they where no longer in the clearing.
Tai had been easy to pick out, that hair was hard to miss. Besides he was a lot like Davis, just as Mimi had said. He didn't seem as happy or excitable as the stories had made him out to be though. There was an aura of pain the seemed to hang around him like a cloud. Michael knew what had caused that too. Sora.
His eyes moved to the girl his mind had just focussed on. Mimi's best friend. She was tall for a girl, and obviously into sports and her red eyes were a very arresting feature. But there was something about her. It was odd really, it almost seemed like she wasn't happy in her relationship.
How quickly she had jumped to Tai's defense had caught his attention, and it had seemed a bit extreme for mere friendship. As he realized the predicament that both she and Tai had placed themselves in he chuckled a bit. They were as blind as he had been.
He looked back at Joe and Mimi. She loved him. It was obvious in how she clung to him. But it was the way that he held her that made Michael stop for a moment. There was a possessiveness there, the likes of which he had never seen. That was all that stopped him from trying to fight for her. He wasn't sure he would survive it.
He still wondered just what it was about Joe that Mimi liked so much. The guy was a nerd to put it kindly. Tall with shoulder length black hair and glasses, Joe was just simply a brain and he couldn't compare with the son of a famous movie star... and yet she chose him. She had chosen him long before he, Michael, had ever met her.
He needed some time to think, to get away from her, from *him*. Seeing them together was just too much for him to bare at the moment and so he turned on his heel and walked away.
*******
Joe watched as Michael strode away. He tried to shield Mimi from the sight for he knew it would hurt her terribly. He didn't truly understand her reasons, and he doubted that he ever would. And yes he was a bit upset with her because of all of this, but it was obvious that she was punishing herself more then he could ever bring himself to do.
But Michael had been hurt as well, and Joe, with his want to be a doctor, felt that he needed to do something about it. Mimi had cried herself out by know, so asking Izzy to take watch over her for a bit was simple. After seeing that she was taken care of Joe went after the American boy.
*******
Michael walked off into the woods. Away from the group, and away from his pain. Wounded pride. What a terrible thing to lose a friendship over, but it had just happened. He no longer considered Mimi a friend of his. That might change in a few weeks but right now it was too raw, and the last thing he needed was a talking too by her new found nerdy boyfriend.
"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be taking care of Mimi?"
*******
Joe followed Michael's path through the foliage and soon came across the blond hared boy and was about the speak when Michael's question bet him to it.
"Your hurting too. I wanted to see if you were alright. You don't need to go through this alone."
"Sure I don't, seeing as I've got friends like Mimi. Just leave me alone Joe."
Joe of coarse didn't listen, he merely took of his glasses and started polishing them. "I'm not going to go away until you talk to me, or at lest promise that your going to talk to someone else. Yes Mimi was wrong to do that too the both of us. I'm sure she had a good reason for doing it, but ending your friendship over something like this will end up doing nothing but hurting both of you."
"I'm not in the mood to be lectured. I've been hurt and you are the ultimate cause of my pain. Leave me before I do something that will end any chance I have of ever patching things up with Mimi."
Joe for his part seemed rather undisturbed by that rather thinly veiled threat as he calmly put his glasses back on and simply stated, "No".
It was too much, his pride in tatters because of this man and his claming of a girl far too good for him. That in and of itself would have been tolerable but now he was mocking him! Michael snarled and lunched him self at the tall med. student only to find himself flat on his back staring dazedly into the shocked eyes of a certain strawberry-blond headed girl.
I admit that I don't like Davis, the only reason I can put up with him is because of Imperialdramon. I'm not even a big fan of Vemon. So I did what I did just so I could put up with him.
