Ohhhh dear. this chapter is so short, it doesn't deserve to be called a
chapter! X.x I hope you guys enjoy what little my writers block is
allowing.
Chapter 5
Obviously, neither Izumi nor Junpei were going to do anything. Izumi was, frankly, pissed at her ex-boyfriend. Junpei never liked Kouji in the first place, and now he really had a reason not to.
Kouji, the lone wolf he was, wasn't going to try to solve the problem. To be honest, he believed he didn't deserve happiness. He'd hurt two people.. three, actually..
Takuya was depressed. He'd finally confessed his feelings to the one he loved, and what did it get him? A few moments of bliss, and now two, possibly three people hated him.
Love stinks.
He told himself that a lot. It wasn't all it was cracked up to be, not as glamorous and perfect as Hollywood and fairy tales made it seem. In reality, perfect "happily ever after" endings were rare. And it seemed the end of his story would be no exception.
Shayla was worried. Izumi had changed, since she broke it off with Kouji. She snapped at people more often, and had a quicker temper. She wasn't as friendly or cheerful as she had once been.
Naturally, Shayla wanted to know why the two had broken up. But every time she asked, Izumi would tell her she didn't want to talk about it, then immediately change the subject. She wasn't happy with this response. She wanted to know.
As did the rest of the student body.
The rumors began.
"I heard Izumi caught Kouji with another woman!"
"No way! I never thought he'd be that kind of guy!"
"Well ~I~ heard he stood her up at the dance. Maybe she's touchy about that kind of thing?"
There was, however, one outsider that knew the truth. But he was only a freshman, and an outcast at that. Nobody cared to hear what he had to say.
But he knew. He'd been there. He'd heard Kouji Minamoto and Takuya Kanbara confessing their emotions. He'd seen them kiss.
He closed the door of his locker and surveyed the hall, watching Junpei and Izumi walk by together. He watched Kouji walk off by himself, and Takuya gazing sadly after him. But he wasn't going to get involved.
He adjusted his ridiculously large orange hat and walked off.
A month went by. Winter began to worm its way in, the temperature dropping to the high 20s. Still, the stubborn teens stayed apart. And then something curious happened.
They were called to the digital world.
A.N: Due to popular demand.. TOMOKI! I hope you're happy. ^^; Next chapter should be interesting.. to be honest, I've had all but the last 2 sentences done for a good 3 or 4 weeks. I just decided tonight that it should take a different turn. I think maybe they'll all be stuck on the same Trailmon. heheh. WHOOHOO, INSPIRATION! *dance*
