Storms

Prologue (and epilogue of You got a friend on me): Closing Doors.

Several years have passed since Rika and Takato started dating, now they were around seventeen years old, and in two days was going to be their 5th anniversary (SF/N: The events of You got a friends on me, occurred while they had like 12 years old, we didn't specify that, now you know) so Takato was getting her a present, he has been saving to buy a special something to Rika.

He went to the jewelry store and looked for what he wanted to give to Rika, he would get the best he could buy for her, their anniversary was going to be very special, it was going to be something that neither of them would ever forget…..and he was right…..they would never forget that day.

Getting unexpected news…..

Rika was at her house, she had already bought something for her goggle-head and she was wrapping it in a special paper with Digimon figures when her grandmother knocked at her door, not waiting for an answer, Seiko went inside Rika's room, she had some kind of sad look on her face.

Noticing this Rika said "Grandmother what's wrong?"

"Rika, we have to talk, something bad happened…" Seiko said as she kneeled down to be nearer her granddaughter.

Changing plans…..

Takato had just arrived from the jewelry store and got ready to go and see Rika, he was impatient and wanted to give her his present for her tonight but it would be better to do it at their anniversary but just then the phone rang, he answered.

"Hello" Takato said and there was no answer for a few seconds, he was about to say 'hello' again but just then the caller spoke.

'Takato…'

It was Rika, but her voice sounded different, something was wrong with her, that Takato knew, and he got worried "Rika, whatz up? Are you alright?"

'…….Yes, but….I'm not going to be able to go and meet you tonight'

"Why? Rika are you alright? You know you can tell me" Takato said getting worried by the moment.

'I already told you I'm fine! See you later goggles'

And with that, Rika hung up leaving Takato a little stunned, it had been a while since Rika sounded that upset with him, he wondered if he should go and see who was she doing.

Closing doors again…..

Rika hung up the phone and then laid down on her futon bed, she closed her eyes for a moment, trying to push back her tears and memories.

"Why didn't you tell him? You know that he would have come and try to cheer you up" Renamon said after watching her Tamer's behavior, she was closing her heart again…

"I don't need him I can handle this on my own" Rika said, her voice muffled by her pillow.

"Rika…" "Go now Renamon, I want to be alone!" Renamon said nothing more and was going to do as told.

"And don't even think in going to see him and tell him!!" Rika almost yelled, Renamon just shook her head and disappeared.

The next day….not better than yesterday……

Rika had just come out of taking a shower and was getting dressed when she heard the phone rang, she didn't pick it up but heard her grandmother picking it, she decided to ignore it and finished getting dressed.

"Rika" she heard her grandmother yell, she did not answered "Is Takato!" her grandmother tried again and she sighed in exasperation but did not attempt to answer the phone until Renamon appeared behind her.

"Now what" Rika said in annoyance, Renamon remained silent and felt bad remembering the way Rika use to treat her when she believed that Digimon were only data, Renamon just looked at the ground thinking if she should say anything.

"Fine I will answer" Rika replied and picked up the phone.

'Sorry Takato, she hasn't feeling well after…' "Is alright grandmother, I already answered" Rika interrupted her grandmother not wanting to let her tell Takato what was wrong; she thought he didn't need to know and she didn't want to tell him.

'Oh, alright Rika I will hung up' "Yeah" Rika said and waited for her grandmother to hang up the phone to talk with the goggle-head.

'Hi Rika, are you feeling better?'

"Why did you called?" Rika said ignoring his question.

'…….Sure you are okay?'

"What do you want goggle-head!?" she said already feeling like losing her patience.

'……..I wanted to know if you could meet me at the park'

"…………………." She didn't answer and she could hear Takato sighing in the other side.

'What about tomorrow, you know what day is tomorrow, right?'

"Yeah I know" she replied annoyed.

'……………..'

She sighed exasperatedly "Fine! I will meet you tomorrow"

'Rika, tell me what's happening'

"I will see you tomorrow Takato" and with that she hung up not wanting to keep listening to him, she could feel the tears forming in her eyes again and she just rubbed her eyes and sat in front of the small table in her room, she laid her head on the table trying to hold the tears.

Confused and sad…..

Takato hung up and decided to go and see her, even if she did not want to see him, even if she got angered at him, he wanted to see her and he wanted to know what was wrong with her and help her, but when he was about to get to her house, Renamon appeared before him and she didn't let him go inside the house.

"Renamon, please let me go in, I want to talk with Rika" he said but Renamon did not move.

"She doesn't want to talk to anyone" Renamon simply said.

"Renamon, you must know what's upsetting her, please let me in and talk to her" Takato said worriedly.

"I can't tell you, you will see her tomorrow, ask her then" Renamon said disappearing.

Takato sighed and left, the only thing left for him to do was to wait to tomorrow and ask her, then he thought that what he had prepared for her for tomorrow would cheer her up, and then he left to his house.

Another bad day…..bad news after bad news……

Rika did her morning routine and then walked to the park, if she was going to talk to the goggle-head it would be better to do it now and she knew that right now he should be visiting Guilmon to give him some day-old bread.

And she was right, he was right there, she hide all the feeling she felt just by seeing him, she had to be strong.

Takato was surprised but happy to see her, he walked to her and was about to greet her as he always did since they are a couple, he was about to hug her and kiss her but she turned away and pushed him, that surprised him and hurt him.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" Rika said ignoring the look on his face.

"I thought we could go out this afternoon, I…" "I can't" Takato said nothing and thought of giving her his present now.

"What's wrong Rika?" Takato asked and Rika said nothing.

"Why don't we look for a place to sit down?" Takato said and both of them looked for a bench were they could sit.

"I got something for you" Takato said and looked on his pant's pocket, Rika remained silent, she was still trying to fight any emotion that could come out.

"I got you this" Takato said showing her a small black velvet box and he thought 'I hope this works' he kneeled down before her and finally gathered all the courage he could use and asked "Rika, would you marry me?"

"My father died"

"Wha…? Rika I'm sorry" Takato said and stood up to hug her but she also stood up.

"I want to be alone….I don't want to….just don't follow me" Rika said and ran away before he could say anything else.

Takato stayed in the park, he was shocked with the news, talking about her father was always hard for Rika, he understood that she needed space, but he would go to see her tomorrow and talk to her.

The next day he did as he planned and left to see her, when he arrived at her house he was relieved to not find Renamon blocking his way, he knocked at her house and her grandmother was the one to open.

"Hello Mrs. Seiko, is Rika home?" he asked, he was worried by the expression on her face as he asked for Rika.

"Oh my, Takato, didn't she tell you?" Seiko said sadly "She left with her mother to the burial of Rika's father"

"Oh, and when is she coming back?" Takato asked feeling a little hurt that Rika didn't told him that she was leaving for a few days.

"She didn't tell you anything? She is not coming back son, she and my daughter moved away but if you want, I ca give you her new address if you want to write her" Seiko said and was about to get inside the house and look for the address but Takato stopped her.

"Don't bother Mrs. Seiko, I got the hint" with that said, Takato walked away, Seiko saw him feeling bad for him and for Rika while Takato felt his heart braking again, he remembered the first time he felt so depressed but that was nothing compared with the pain he was feeling now, and he never imagined he would be feeling it again and much less that it would be the person that help him that time many years ago who would cause it, he never imagined that it would be Rika who would brake his heart again.

"I got the hint" Takato repeated as he walked slowly towards his house, some tears made their way down his face.

The End

Aerisakura: Okay, that wasn't as I expected it to be, I didn't planned for Rika's dad dying, I thought of saying that he was going to marry with another woman or that she and her mother had to move away, really far away.

Freak: But saying what we said was the best.

Aerisakura: Alright, you already saw that is not me who goes around killing characters.

MMX2: Yeah, well wait to we write the fic "Storms" the sequel to this fic.

Logan: There won't be Omakes in this chapter, you know, we don't want to ruin that "drama" with comedy but we'll try to make some for the next fics.

Terriermon: Well now, go on and review and let these dudes know what you think of this chapter.

Freak: Like we said, there's no Omakes today, but there is a small preview….and sorry again we will take a while to post all the following chapters of our others fics….for now enjoy the preview:
