"You mean to tell me, that I have to pay for ALL of our tickets back to Japan." Takeru sighed. "This is not what I got a big paying job for." Takeru laid his head back on the sands of the canyon floor. "This is not what I pictured when I thought of America."

"Hey come on, TK, you know we were planning to take a vacation to America anyway." Kari said. He sat up and walked over to her. She put her mouth by his ear and whispered into it. "Let's leave these four behind, and we'll take a road trip around America." She pulled back to see Takeru's reaction. He was smiling with a grin he saved just for Kari. He nodded his head

Meanwhile, Matt was desperately trying to figure out the map he took from the entrance to the man. Takeru walked over to him (A/N: I'm tired of writing Takeru so from now on, I will be writing TK. Unless I need to use Takeru.) and grabbed the map from Matt. "You had it upside-down fool." TK pinpointed their location on the map and began walking in the direction of the town. "Come on, people, town's this way." Everyone followed him.

They arrived at a Best Western hotel joined with an Alamo car rental. The counter man gave everyone strange looks as they approached. 'It's a good thing I learned English.' TK thought. "Do you have three rooms, two with separate beds, one joined?" The counter man (whose name was Larry) looked for vacancies on his computer.

He spoke with a very southwestern/Italian voice. "Yeah. Rooms 232, 234 and 146. 146 is the room with the joined bed. He pulled out the room keys and handed them to TK. TK gave rooms 232 and 234 to Sora, Matt, Joe, and Izzy. He took 146. They were about to walk away when Larry informed them that they still needed to pay.

TK took out his platinum credit card. "Will this do?" he asked.

Larry took the card and charged the rooms to TK's account. "More than enough. Believe me." Larry handed the card back to TK. Everyone proceeded to their individual rooms.

When TK and Kari got in the room they worked out a plan to leave the others behind. Kari came up with the first idea. "First, we rent a car. We pretend that it's for everyone. In the middle of the night, we return out room key, get in the car, and drive off. I think we should head for New York. I've always wanted to go there." (A/N: Since there are no Season 2 digi-destined, then the digimon movie never took place, and Kari has never been to New York.)

TK agreed with her. They rented a Nissan X-terra from the Alamo rental office, and in the middle of the night, drove off and headed towards New York.

***********************

TK was driving with one arm. His other arm was busy being around Kari's shoulders. Kari's head was resting on TK's shoulder. They were driving along the empty highway at a good pace of 70 miles per hour. TK had never felt more content in his life than in this moment right now. "Kari?" He asked, checking to see if she was awake.

"Yes, TK?" Kari was also very content at this moment.

"I love you."

"I love you too, Takeru Takaishi." And with a yawn, Kari fell asleep.

******************

TK and Kari were now in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They were enjoying themselves very much at the most expensive restaurant in town, in newly bought dress clothes. Kari was just finishing telling a story about something that had happened to her the other day when they were still in Tokyo. TK wasn't listening to a word. He was stunned at how beautiful she looked in her new crimson red dress. He had decided. This would be the night. He couldn't put it off any longer. He interrupted her story "Kari, I'm sorry to interrupt you but I have to ask you something very important." TK got up walked over to where Kari was sitting and kneeled down on one knee. "Will you marry me, Hikari Kamiya?" he said with his 'Kari' grin.

Kari suddenly looked sad. "I…I'm sorry TK. I can't do it." She began to cry. "I can't marry you!" She stood up and ran out of the restaurant. TK just sat there dumbfounded. 'She can't marry me?'

A/N:Anyway.... I like this fic to much so screw the review thing. And I decided to change the rating to PG-13 because I don't think this is so R-ish... well it was going to be but this didn't turn out the way I planned. Please review again even if you already have!
