Rika slowly opened her eyes. The last thing she could remember was Ryo confessing his love for her. She blushed at what Ryo said. Rika got up and found Ryo's hands on hers. He was sleeping on the end of the bed. She didn't want to wake him up so she carefully got out. Unfortunately, Ryo woke up.
"Rika! You're awake!"
"Thanks for pointing out the obvious"
Ryo chuckled.
"Um...Thanks Ryo. Thanks for saving me back there."
Ryo blushed.
"Your welcome. Rika, I-"
"Of course you probably would have done the same for anyone."
"Rika..."

--

"Come on! Come on!"
Takato and Jeri were walking everywhere to find Rika and Ryo. They heard about the accident in the building involving 2 young teenagers. So that was a clue, unfortunately they couldn't find Ryo and Rika.
"Excuse me, Mr. Police Officer-man."
A police officer about 5'6 turned around.
"Yes?"
The officer didn't sound so happy.
"I...I mean - we were wondering if you have seen two teenagers about this high, looks like this..."
Takato kept explaining as Jeri nudged Takato to stop.
"Ahem...I think you kids should run along."
"Fine...Fine."
Takato and Jeri ran along.
"Argh...this is hopeless!" Takato shouted.
"Don't give up. I'm sure we'll find them sooner or later," Jeri said.
As they were walking they were a couple of police officers talking.
"Yeah, the kid was pretty brave. He saved her. I was impressed."
"Heh...I can't believe he did it. And the supervisor told him to stay put."
"What was his name?"
"I think...it...was..."
The police officer shrugged.
"Hmm...I think it started with a 'R'."
"Yeah! I think it was Ryo."
Takato and Jeri looked at each other. Then they approached the 2 officers.
"Excuse me, but do you know where Ryo is right now?" Takato asked.
"And why are you looking for him?"
One of the police officers looked at suspiciously.
"Because he's my best friend and we *pointing at Jeri* are here to make sure he doesn't cause any trouble and to get Ryo with this girl, Rika and we *once again pointing at Jeri* sure that they love each other but, of course, are too shy to admit."
Takato smiled at the 2 police officers. They looked Takato weird.
"I think I heard they went to the hospital, which is right over there."
Takato turned around and saw a big white building.
"THAT!?! That was the place me and her went to find them!"
The police officers shrugged.
"Well that's all the information we have."
"Thanks a lot," Jeri said bowing.
"Your welcome," said the 2 police officers.
"Come on Jeri! We have to go before it's too late!"
Jeri nodded. Takato and Jeri ran to hospital.

"Rika?"
Ryo was facing Rika as Rika was looking outside of her window. It was a beautiful scenery.
"Yeah?"
"When I said 'I love you' I really meant it."
Rika's eyes widen. Why did he have to talk about that? She didn't know to say it to him. She didn't even know if she could say it at all!
"Ryo..."
Ryo turned away, ready to take her answer.
"I..."
Then the door burst open. The doctor came in along with some nurses.
"Excuse us, we just need to check on Rika."
Ryo and Rika nodded their heads. After the doctor did some examinations, they could leave.
"So where are you going?" Ryo asked.
Rika shrugged.
"To tell you the truth, I was planning on going back to Japan..."
Ryo's face brighten.
"Really? I bet Jeri and Takato are going to be excited when they hear this!"
Rika smiled a bit. Then it became silent.
"Rika?"
"Ryo?"
"I need to know how you feel about me. Please?"
Rika bit her lip. If she said it, would it sound right? Can she even say it? She known to be a cold-hearted person.
"Ryo...I-"
"RYO?! RIKA!?!"
A voice shouted. It was Takato, Jeri and Stacy Freed! Rika gasped. What the heck are they doing here?
"Ryo?! Why are they here?!"
"I don't know. I don't even know who that other lady is!"
"That's my aunt."
Tons of photographers raced up to Stacy.
"Ryo! Rika! Stay right there!"
Ryo looked at Rika and she looked pissed. Ryo grabbed Rika's hand. Rika blushed.
"Lets go!"
Rika nodded. They begin to make a run for it.
"Do you even know where you're going?" Rika asked.
"Nope! Lets have an adventure."
Ryo flashed a smile at Rika. She blushed but smiled back. They kept running and then hid in an alley.
"Where are we?" Rika asked.
Ryo shrugged.
"At least we got away from Takato, Jeri and your aunt."
Rika laughed. They were holding hands and neither of them wanted to let go. Then the bright sunny day suddenly turned into a cold rainy day. But Rika looked even more beautiful under the rain.
"It's raining! I love the rain." Rika said.
Ryo laughed.
"Me too!"
They begin dancing in the rain. Then Rika splashed Ryo...by accident. His clothes were wet, but he didn't care. He was having the time of his life. He splashed Rika back and they begin to have a water fight. At the end, Rika was in Ryo's arms. They were dancing and playing around.
"This is so much fun!" Ryo shouted.
"I agree!"
Rika was only 5 inches apart from Ryo. They close and so close that they could hear each other's heart beat.
"Ryo...I love you."
Ryo blushed and was, in fact, shocked. Rika just said it right in front of him.
"Rika, I love you too."
They both smiled. Ryo leaned towards Rika and kissed her. She wrapped her arms around Ryo's neck to deepen the kiss. Ryo put his arms around Rika's waist.
"Hey look here they are!!!"
But Rika and Ryo didn't break apart. Jeri and Stacy came running to where Takato was. They were all in shock of what they saw. Ryo and Rika?! Of course they knew it was meant to be but Jeri and Takato thought it would be because of them. But both of them shrugged.
"Don't they look cute together?" Jeri asked.
"Yup but I think we look cuter," Takato said.
Jeri blushed. Then Takato kissed Jeri. Stacy smiled at the couples.

Ryo and Rika were at her apartment where Rika was living. She was packing up to go back to Japan. Outside, Takato and Jeri were waiting along with a taxi. Ryo grabbed one of Rika's suitcase as she grabbed the other.
"Is it too heavy?" Rika asked.
"Nope."
Ryo smiled at Rika. They headed down to the taxi cab. They all got in and drove away to the airport. They reached the airport about 45 minutes later.
"Everyone ready to go?" Ryo asked.
"Yup," said Takato.
"Yes," said Jeri.
Rika nodded her head.
"Wait!" A voice shouted.
Rika definitely knew who it was, Stacy Freed and Christy.
"Rika! I didn't want you leave without saying goodbye."
Rika nodded. Stacy bent down and gave Rika a hug.
"Be a good girl, okay?"
"Yes ma'am."
Then it was Christy's turn. There were tears in her eyes.
"I guess this is goodbye," said Christy.
"I'll write to you," said Rika.
They both hugged each other. They all waved goodbye and got on the plane. The trip took about 12 hours [This is a big guess -_-;;].

--

"Ready?"
Rika nodded her head. Rika and Ryo were going to Rika's house. Rika knocked on the door. Her mother opened the door.
"Hi mom."
"Hi Mrs. Nonaka."
Rika's mother face lit up. She gave Rika and Ryo a big hug. Mrs. Nonaka wiped the tears from her eyes.
"I'm so happy you're back!!"
Rika and Ryo went inside the house.
"WELCOME BACK!!!"
Rika was surprised. All of her friends and relatives (except Stacy) were right before her eyes.
"H-How did you know was I coming back today?"
"I got a little note from an anonymous," said Mrs. Nonaka.
She winked at Ryo who winked back. Rika playfully smacked him. She was glad that she back but she missed her friends in America.

--

After the party was over, everyone left except Ryo.
"So...what are you doing to do?" Ryo asked.
"Well tomorrow's Monday so I guess I'll go to school."
Ryo chuckled. He wish that he and Rika were in the same school.
"I wish we were in the same school."
"Me too."
Then Ryo had a sly look on his face.
"I know that face. What are you doing to do?"
"Nothing."
He flashed his adorable smile at Rika. It was getting late so Rika kissed Ryo goodnight.
"Bye. I'll see you tomorrow," said Ryo.
Rika looked at him confused and shrugged it off. It was probably one of his jokes.
"Bye. See you tomorrow...I guess."

--

The next morning flew by. Rika was sitting her desk and thinking about the one and only Ryo Akiyama. She opened her pencil case and revealed 2 pictures, one of her mother and her aunt Stacy and the other of Ryo.
"Please listen up class. I had an urgent call from the principle. We have a new student."
Rika looked up. It couldn't be, could it?
"Please welcome...Ryo Akiyama"
The door opened. Many of the girls immendiately fell for him.
"Hi everyone, I'm Ryo Akiyama and my heart is only for Rika Nonaka."
Rika turned blushed.
"Well we didn't need to know that but you may sit behind Ms. Nonaka," said the teacher.
Ryo sat down behind her. He tapped her on her shoulder.
"Told you that I'll see you tomorrow."
He once again flash his smile at her. He leaned towards Rika and kissed her on the lips. Fortunately, the teacher wasn't looking.
"See you at all your other classes."
He winked at her. She gave Ryo one last kiss.

Fin.

That's it.. ^^;;; I know, I know crappy ending.
