TK sat in his chair dumbfounded. His mouth hung open and he only occasionally closed it to swallow. He didn't blink. He sat there for hours this way. A waiter walked up to him. "Sir? Um, sir? The restaurant is closing now. We're going to have to ask you to leave." TK snapped out of his trance. Blinking his eyes, pain absorbed his eyes for a moment.

"Yeah, uh yeah, sure." He got up and trudged out of the restaurant. It was 11:00 p.m. The streets of Philadelphia were lit only by the dim bulbs of the streetlights. The clouds in the sky above thundered as it began to rain. TK just walked on. Puddle after puddle, raindrop after raindrop, he still could not understand. When he finally looked up, he discovered he was in front of the hotel he and Kari were staying at. "Kari…" his soft voice cried out in pain for the one he loved. He walked into the hotel and got on the elevator. Water dripped off him. He reached the top floor, silence broken only by the sound of the elevator dinging. He stepped out and walked down the long empty hallway.

Takeru pulled out his key card when he reached the hotel room. Popping it in and out, the lock sounded and he pushed the door open. He looked up and around the room. Kari was sitting on the bed in her crimson dress. She was slouched, crying soundlessly. She looked up and saw TK standing in the doorway. His face was one of sadness. She stood up. "I'm sorry TK," she said very quietly. "You won't be able to understand now, but, in the future, maybe clarity will come to your eyes."

Takeru couldn't take it. He needed to understand. "No," he said. "You have to tell me now. Tell me what I did wrong." He paused for a moment and seemed to be contemplating things. "I can't understand what I could possibly have done wrong. I loved you. I loved you more than is humanly possible. I gave you everything you wanted. Where did I go wrong?"

"What did you do wrong? What did you do wrong? I'll tell you what you did wrong TK. You didn't do anything wrong, I did." She hurried out the door of the room. TK tried to stop her on the way out. He began to say something but she interrupted him. "No TK. You can't stop me on this. I may not know what I did wrong but I can see it in your eyes. The love I have in mine is not all there in yours." She stormed away down the hall.

TK shouted after her. "If it isn't all there then why would I ask you to marry me?" She stopped walking. She took off a ring on her right hand. It was a small silver band with a heart shaped ruby set in the center. Inscribed on the inside was, "My heart belongs to you - - Takeru Takaishi." TK had given it to her on their 1 year anniversary of beginning to date. She turned around and threw the ring at him. He fumbled to catch it.

"Keep it TK. You'll need it to remember me." She turned around again and got on the elevator.

TK heard a voice from inside his room. "Well that didn't work out very well now did it." TK turned to see Sora leaning against the wall inside the room. He put the ring on his right hand ring finger. He walked into the room and closed the door.

"What the hell are you doing here?" TK said scornfully. "Haven't you cause enough trouble in my life already?"

"Have I now? Or have I actually helped you?"

"How could you have possibly helped me?"

"Think about it TK. Did you really actually love her? Do you really want to marry her?"

"Yes." She walked towards him. She was wearing a very tight black dress with a slit in the side that went all the way up to her hips.

"Wouldn't you rather have some of this?" She gestured at her own body. TK remained silent. He was to crushed to care about anything. She walked even close to him, pressing her body up against his. She looked up into his eyes. "Come on, TK. Take me while you can get me." She put her arms around his neck and he kissed her. She took off his jacket and then loosened his tie all while they were still kissing. Their tongues explored each other's mouths. They broke their kiss only to remove his tie. They resumed ravaging each other's mouths. She unbuttoned his shirt and tore it off of him. She rubbed her hands up and down his chest and began to undo his belt. His hands moved to her zipper and he began to unzip her dress. She finished undoing his pants and they slid off of him, just as her dress did. He lowered her onto the bed. Neither of them had worn any underwear. TK moved down onto her neck and proceeded to lick up and down her body. Sora let out a moan. The door to the hotel opened and Kari froze with disgust.

"You little bitch!" TK stopped and looked over at Kari, as did Sora. He immediately stood up.

"Umm… who was that aimed at?" Sora asked.

"Both of you!" Kari said. She couldn't move she was so disgusted. "I can't believe I was actually gonna come back her and say yes. What a pointless waist of time you were Takeru. I'm not even going to give you the satisfaction of a slap on the face." And with that, she left. TK didn't try to stop her. He knew there would be no point. He put his pants back on and collapsed on the ground crying.

A/N: Wow. I just sort of wrote this by accident. It just poured out of me. Wow. I really wasn't expecting that. Wow. I'm still not raising the rating though I don't really think it was enough. Well at least now sora ACTUALLY interfered. Sorry I took so long to continue the story. This always happens to me, I tend to lose my muse. Well I can assure you all now that I'm sticking with this story until it's finished. By the way I don't really have a reason why she didn't want to marry him so if someone wants to suggest something I might use it... Review please! Thanks for reading.
