A/N: I really wanted to update this story cause I like it!!! So much for
modesty I know. ^_^' Anyways, thanks for the reviews, I really appreciate
it!!!!!!! Here is chapter 4!!!!
I was doing my Biology homework in my room. It wasn't supposed to be hard, the teacher had said. He forgot to say: if you listened in class. I didn't.
The phone rang. I didn't answer because I knew it was one of my mother's boyfriends again. I really hated those guys. My dad had left us when I was 6, but my mom acted like he was never here. In a way, I can't understand how she feels, true, but still, it wasn't a good enough reason to get out with every guy she met.
"Ruki, it's for you!"
"Who?"
"I don't know, he didn't say his name."
I had two options at the moment. My Biology homework. Or probably Kazu on the phone that wants to go on a date with me. As much as I didn't want to, I took the phone my mom was holding in front of me.
"Yes?"
I just knew it was Kazu, I must be a psychic or something. When a guy called me and that he didn't say who he was, like Jen, Takato or Kenta would do, it *MUST* be Kazu. This guy is like *SO* annoying, I swear. First he tries to get me on dates. Then he tries to kiss me; he puts his arm around my shoulders whenever he has the opportunity. How stupid is that??? I can't believe he has a crush while when we met we were like cats and dogs.
"Hi, Ruki."
So much for my fortuneteller business.
"Ryo??? How did you get my number? Wait, it's Jen, isn't it?"
"Well, er, yes, but don't kill him."
"Why shouldn't I, he is my best friend, and a best friend is not supposed to give your number to some guy!"
"I just wanted to know if I could take you to have some pizza?"
The guy had guts. Asking *ME* on a date.
"Are the screaming girls included?" I asked, innocently.
"You're right, maybe I should take you to my place."
"I didn't say yes yet, don't go dreaming about it."
"So?"
"I have some homework to do"
"Oh, okay, I see," he said, disappointment in his voice. "I'll see you at school then? You promise that you won't kick me if I call you in the street this time."
"I can't promise you that, I never know when I'm going to be in a bad mood."
"Okay" he said, and I just knew he was smiling at the other end of the line. My psychic powers are suddenly coming back.
I hang up and got back to my homework.

On my way to school
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I was with Jen and we were talking about everything and nothing. But then the conversation moved to the Digimon Card tournament that was going to take place in two months.
"Come one, Ruki, you're good, I know you can do it."
"But I don't want to." I said. The reason was that I didn't want to look like an idiot if I lost.
"She's too afraid, that's why," a voice from behind us said. I didn't have to turn around to see who it was, but I still did.
"Listen, pal, *I* am not afraid of anything, even of your ugly face," I said, poking his chest with on of my fingers. I was frowning so hard my forehead hurt.
"So why don't you compete in the tournament? Afraid you might loose against me?" he said with a smirk. That was a ticket to another kick. I walked forward but I felt someone holding me back.
"Let me go, Jen!" I said, trying to move away from his grip.
"Calm down, wildcat! You don't want screaming fans all over you, or do you?" he said with this smile that I hated so much.
I stopped to move around and stuck up my nose in a 'humph', my arms crossed over my chest, while Jen loosen his grip on my waist. That's the moment I choose to punch him in the chin. Ryo, not Jen, duh. Like last time he fell backwards, blood coming out from one of the corners of his mouth.
I turned my back to him and started to walk away. From the corner of my eye, I could see Jen helping Ryo up.
"Is she like that every morning??" Ryo asked. I smiled to myself.
Jen looked at me walking away, and said: "I think you are getting a special treatment"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I was at my locker. I had just come back from the pool, from my PE class. My hair into a ponytail was socked with water, wetting the bottom of my shirt and the belt of my pants. I had lunch right now and it was a good thing for once: I was starving. I took my lunch from my locker and put it into my bag. Closing my locker, I met Jeri at hers and we walked together to the cafeteria.
I was halfway through my lunch when the doors of the cafeteria opened and girls screaming around a tall guy, with messy brown hair, blue eyes and a bruise on his chin. I didn't pay much attention to him, too busy feeding myself and keeping Kazu from getting too close to me.
But then, the screams came closer and closer as a guy sat to my right.
"What are *YOU* doing here?" I said, annoyance in my voice. My stomach suddenly wanting to get rid of the food I had just swallowed.
"Can't you have lunch with your favorite punching ball?" Ryo said with *THE* smile.
"Let me think about it. *NO*!! I already have enough troubles with lover boy at my left, I don't need another one here!" I said, harshly. All I wanted was to finish my lunch in peace and tranquility, but how could you do that when a zillion girls where around you, looking at you like you were a dangerous menace to their life??
"You owe me a nose bleed and a bruise on my chin, you know," he said with a smile before getting up and walking away. First I didn't understand why he had said that but when I looked around me at the fans that hadn't move, I understood why.
"*YOU* were that girl"
"How dare you?"
"Now he has this aweful bruise on the chin!!!"
They were getting closer and I was cursing Ryo inside. I quickly got up and started to run while all the girls where chasing after me.
I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away
I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone
to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the tide comes
I'd take you away
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares
I'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares
All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I'll be there
Oh, yeah
If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone
