A/N: Hey everybody! It's Fiery here. And I have one thing to say. Rika, stay away from me caz I am soo mad at you right now.
Fire: Just shut up and skip the a/n this time. I want to read the story!
Fiery: Ok.
Disclaimer; Fiery-chan and Angel 13 do not own Digimon, it belongs to Toei and whoever else it belongs to.
Angel; Unfortunately.
Rika: Like we'd ever let you guys own us.
Fiery: People! Shut up! It's my turn now! Out! Out! Out!
Rika: Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.
Chapter 5: You need sun to tan.
Rika led everyone to their cabin. She mentally counted the numbers, watching for number 1025.
"Aha! Here it is! Number 1025." Rika said opening the door with her key.
Everyone gasped when they saw the room. It was big and beautiful.
"Wow, they certainly went all out." Jeri said.
"I agree with you there." Kazu replied. "So, what are we going to do first? I wouldn't mind exploring. Who wants to come."
"I'll come." Takato said. This was followed by agreements by Kenta, Jeri, and Henry.
"I'm going to tan. Room of the left is mine and Jeri's. You guys can squeeze into the one on the right." Rika said laughing.
"I think I'll stay and start unpacking." Ryo added. "But I'll catch up with you all later."
"Ok, well have fun." Kazu said. "Let's move out troops!" He declared, marching them down the hallway to the other levels. Jeri held up a camera and started snapping pictures. Rika smiled, then dug through her suitcase for the lilac swim suit she had bought earlier. She changed into it, grabbed a magazine, and headed for the deck.
When Rika reached the deck, she was amazed at how big it was. She took a lounge chair, and laid down basking in the glow of the sun while reading a magazine. This she threw to the ground when she opened it up and found an article with tons of pictures of her.
"That's so not cool." She muttered. So instead, she just laid back and closed her eyes.
*****
The next time Rika found her eyes opened was when she was in a shadow. She peered over the rim of her sunglasses to find Ryo standing beside her.
"Can I help you?" She asked in her best "I'm pissed off but I'm trying really hard to hide it" voice.
"Just came to check on you. To see if you'd been attacked by any teenage boys yet. This whole place is swarming with kids our age. I wouldn't want anyone to take away my Wildcat." Ryo replied, winking.
Rika sighed and tried her hardest not to laugh. "Thank you for the concern Akiyama, but I have not been attacked yet. Although I might classify you under the "attack" category because you're blocking the sun!" She said, raising her voice slightly on the last part. Ryo smiled and stepped to the side.
"Better?"
"Much. Oh and by the way, you have an airhead coming in your direction. She's tall, just under your height, thin, with wheat blonde hair and sky blue eyes. She's wearing a pink tank top and a blue mini. By the way she applied her makeup and by the way she's walking, I'd say she's trying to impress you." Rika replied.
Ryo turned around. "You got all of that out of one glance? Impressive."
"I live in the lime light. I have to learn how to judge people."
"Ahh, makes sense." Ryo sat down on the edge of the lounge chair. "I noticed that you were wearing the hair pieces I got you from America."
"Yeah, they coordinated well with my outfit, what else was I supposed to do? Did I thank you for them?"
"I don't remember. Most likely." Ryo said smiling.
"Ok then." Just then the girl walked up and flashed a smile at Ryo and glared slightly at Rika.
"Hi! The name is Melanie. But you can call me Mel. Are you two a couple?" She asked. Considering what Rika had said about the girl, Ryo decided it would be best to get her out of his hair as quickly as possible.
"Yeah, we are. My name is Ryo and this is Rika." Ryo said, winking at Rika. Rika was about to object but decided to save it for later.
"I know who she is. Famous model Rika Nonaka. Funny, the news said you were single." Mel said eying the two suspiciously.
"The news always lies." Rika replied. "It was nice chatting but we have to go now." She said putting on her best fake smile, then leading Ryo away from the deck.
*****
Once they were back on their floor, Rika really let Ryo have it.
"Dating? You have got to be joking Akiyama! Now it's going to spread around this place like a wildfire. The Legendary Tamer and the fashion model are an item. This is not how I intended to have my summer vacation!"
"I'm sorry Rika, I shouldn't have done it. I just didn't want that girl following me around. She seemed very cold. Especially the way she looked at you." Ryo said staring down at the floor.
"Well now she's going to be a lot colder! She's going to try to break us up and we aren't even dating!! You said the other day that you knew your boundaries. But you definitely stepped over the line this time. I'm going to be in my room. Do not, and I repeat, do not, bother me!" Rika stormed away from Ryo and slammed the door to her's and Jeri's cabin.
"That didn't work out to well." Ryo said. He sighed and walked into the boys cabin.
*****
Rika tore through her bag, pulling out her clothes. She took off the swim suit and pulled on the outfit she had worn earlier. She pulled her hair down then tied it up in a ponytail. She was about to throw out the hair sticks but decided not to. She shoved them in her bag, then flopped on her bed and fell asleep.
Rika repeatedly tossed and turned until she finally woke up. She went to the bathroom and splashed some water on her face.
"Stupid Ryo."
Something then came over Rika that she could not control. She defintely wasn't happy about it but she gave in anyway. She curled up in a ball on her bed and broke down in tears.
*****
In the other room, Ryo was pacing around trying to do everything he could think of to calm himself down. He wasn't going to cry, but he wasn't going to slam thing around either. Neirther of these were his nature. He wasn't even mad, just upset. He never meant to make Rika feel this way. He cared so much about her but he had gone and got her so mad at him.
"What did I do to deserve this?" Ryo asked himself. He walked over to his bag and pulled out his headset. He turned it on loud to drown out any noise, then laid back on his bed, drifting into sleep.
About an hour later, Ryo was being shaken awake by Kazu. He turned off his headset and opened his eyes.
"What's up?"
"Do you know where Rika is?" Kazu asked.
"Yeah she's in her room but she doesn't want to be bothered."
"No she's not." Takato said. "We all came back and she wasn't there. We checked the deck and she wasn't there either. The room is a mess, her things are thrown all over the place like she was in a rage."
"Oh, ok. She'll be back later." Ryo replied. Henry looked extremely confused. By now, Ryo would have jumped out of bed, declaring an all-out search.
"Ryo, did something happen while we were gone?" He asked.
"No not really." Ryo replied, reaching for his headset again. Henry reached out and snapped it away before he could get it. "Hey!"
"Ryo, something happened. Your acting wierd, Rika's missing, the room's a mess, and you don't even care! Now I'll ask you one mre time, what happened while we were gone?" Henry was getting very mad. This was unusual behavior for Ryo and he wanted and answer.
Ryo sighed. "Fine, I'll tell you. Sit down, it might take a while." Ryo began his story and when he was done, Jeri looked confused.
"What makes this wierd is that Rika's pillow is wet, like she was crying. But I have only seen Rika cry once, when the digimon went away, I think. But anyway, Rika wouldn't cry over something like this."
"Unless..." Henry's eyes lit up. "You all stay here. I have something to do."
*****
Henry went down to the bottom of the boat. It was the only place he could think of that matched Rika's emotions at the time. It was so cold and dark that it made whoever entered it feel sad and depressed.
"This is really depressing." Hnery said as he descended. Henry got quiet and listened for what might be Rika. He heard someone crying and hurried to the direction of the sound. "Rika?" He called out. A huddled mass in the back corner turned around and stood up. Sure enough it was Rika.
"Oh Henry!" She said, running to her friend, burying her face in his chest. Henry put his arms around Rika trying to calm her down. "I feel like such an idiot crying over something that is definitely not worth crying over. I don't even know why I care."
"Because you do."
"Um, you wanna run that one by me again." Rika said, now more confused than upset.
"You do care, although you try to hide it, deep down you really like Ryo. You like the attention he gives you, the way he looks out for you in particular. He cares about you so much. He actually sort of had a breakdown when he found out you were missing. It wasn't like his normal "Let's search this entire ship" attitude. He was so monotone and lifeless. That's how I knew something was wrong. Now let's get you cleaned up and back upstairs, this place is really creeping me out."
Rika smiled. "You're right about one thing, this place is creepy. However, me liking Ryo, that might take some time to get used to. But I'm sure I can handle it."
"That you can. If anyone could, it would definitely be you." Henry replied. "Now come on, I'm starving."
As if on cue, Henry's stomach growled. Both of them laughed and headed up the stairs to rejoin the others.
A/N: I know it was short, and with a lot of emotions but I was on a totla block, and drama was the only way I could think of to go.
Rika: I hate you!!! Look at me! You have destroyed me!!!
Fiery: Shut up and go cry in a corner.
Rika: Why I oughta...
Angel: Don't think so. Fiery's still in pain from the last time. *Drags Rika away.*
Fiery: I could have taken her on.
Fire: You're still not ready to fight someone who is immortal. Now just end this chapter, I'm extremely bored.
Fiery: Next time I'll have Wind annoy me. At least he's nicer than you.
Fire: You do that.
Fiery: I will. The next chapter is up to Angel. If she can pick up where I left off then she really is a great writer. Even I don't know where to go from here. LOL. Until next time.
Luv'n'stuff!
