The Day That My Life Changed

By: The Smashfriends

Aerisakura: For the ones reading our others fics, we are sorry for not continue writing them.

MMX2: It's just that in a review, we were very insulted by a person, don't want to give her name, at first it bother us what she said and decided to stop writing for a while.

Logan: But we think that stop writing is what that person wants and we are not going to let her win and just for that person to know: RUKATO RULES AND WHAT YOU SUPPORT IS SICK!!!

Freak: Don't get me started kid, buy you, you know who you are, if you like that kind of coupling…is there someone doing that to you…cuz if it is…that's not right and much less that best thing in the world…no matter how you want to fool yourself saying that's the best, if someone is doing that to you is wrong and you need help. What you told us is practically that, a cry of help but we don't even know were you live like to help you so…you will have to ask someone else.

Aerisakura: I usually don't like to bother with ill comments like yours and saying something but…

Logan: You are the only who thinks that of us, a lot of people likes our fics, maybe there aren't a lot, but the ones that we have are enough for us, some of our readers support us and still keep writing to us asking us to continue our fics and…

MMX2: Being wise, we decided to ignore you and listen to the readers that support us, I mean a crowd can't be ignored but one alone surely can.

Logan: And we decided this too, because a…let's say fellow writer is going trough the same, sadly she seems to have give up when she is a great writer, she should continue writing and ignore those that only insult other peoples work to feel good with themselves.

Freak: How pathetic must be someone's life to do that!! And be..what was the word….oh, yeah…laughing at it!! (hope you catch my drift if you are still reading this, you know who)

MMX2: We might not be good writers, but we like to write and that's it!! If you don't like our works, then why are you reading?

Aerisakura: Alright, I think that was enough, now let's go on with the fic. And sorry to the rest of the readers for the things said previously and thanks to all those readers that give us your support.

Logan: Yeah!! Even one of our fave authors liked our fic!!

Freak: Alright, continuing with the fic, though I would like to say some other words but okay. This is a new ficcie of us, is an A.U. there is no Digimon and not all the Tamers know each others, for the rest, you will find out while you read this.

Aerisakura: Some chapters of this fic will repeat but will be focusing in different characters.

MMX2: The goggle-head will go first, then you will see what character we chose or you get chose to "give the narration" of how his/her day was.

Freak: Is like, first we narrate what Takato did in the first day, then, lets say we narrate the same day focusing in Rika or any other character we think about.

Logan: There won be Terriermon!! That will be bad cuz we like the little buddy.

Terriermon: Thanks, but you keep away from me kid, you give the creeps!!

Logan: HEY!! I wouldn't hurt you…much. XDDD

Terriermon: That's why I'm glad that you don't own Digimon.

'Takato's thoughts'

Chapter 1: If Only…

(Takato's Day)

It was a cold Friday morning when Takato's alarm clock started to ring loudly, lazily Takato woke up and silenced the damn noisy artifact, he took a few seconds more to be fully awake and looked at the time, it read 5:05.

Takato groaned in annoyance and tiredly he got out of bed, he yawned and scratched his back, he got up and put on some sport clothes and as soon as he was dressed, he went out of his room but before leaving he turned to see around the room.

His room was now messy, the bed was left unmade and there was a huge window that was covered with curtains that kept the sun light from getting inside the room during the day, there was a wardrobe with it's drawers half open with clothes scattered around it or hanging from them, a T.V. was on top a the wardrobe, next to it was a door leading to the bathroom, next to the bed there was a small desk where Takato had a lamp, a phone and his alarm clock.

Takato closed the door to his room, he lived alone now, just a few years ago he moved away from his parents' house. His house wasn't small but wasn't to big either, after all he lived alone but not for long, soon he would be getting married to the girl that he had been dating since he was in the elementary school-Jeri Katou.

A year ago he had asked her to marry him and she gladly accepted, that day was one of the happiest days of his life, and to make things better, in a few months he would be getting married with her and they will be living here…together…as a couple.

That fact made Takato a little nervous, and many question invaded his head as he walked through his house towards the back door, like everyday, he would go out to run and exercise and as it was usual now, those questions invaded his mind while he walked towards the back door.

'Will I be a good husband?' 'Is this the right thing to do?' 'Is this the right time?' 'Will we be happy?' he asked himself everyday since he asked Jeri the big question, but all this questions faded as soon as Takato got to the his house back door and he open it.

"Guil no! Wait!" Takato said as his dog jumped to him making him fall to the ground.

Guil, Takato's dog, always jumped happily towards his friends and always had the same result. He calmed his friend nerves and always made him be in a good mood.

"Come on boy" Takato said as he put Guil his leach and the two of them went to run around the neighborhood for almost two hours to then come back home.

Guil had been with Takato since 5 years ago, Takato got it since Guil was a small puppy and Takato had trained him to be a good dog. Guil always ran next to Takato when he went to exercise or when they played at the park.

After his exercise Takato was very tired but he had to take a quick shower and leave to collage then he would have to go to work, it wasn't a big job but it helped to pay his bills, in little more than a year he would be graduating from collage and he would get a full time job then.

A Few Hours Later….

It was past seven in the afternoon, and Takato was very tired after his day at school and work but just as he was about to lay down on his couch to have a rest, the phone ringed and he lazily pick it up.

----------------------

Takato: Hello.

Jeri: Hi, Takato.

Takato: Uh, hi Jeri.

Jeri: How was your day.

Takato:….Tired.

Jeri: Are you very tired?

Takato: Ummm…sort of…why?

Jeri: Well, a friend of mine is throwing a party tonight and…well, I was wondering if you wanted to go?

Takato: …..You really want to go?

Jeri: Well, yes Takato, it had been a while since we go to a party.

Takato: …..Fine, I will pick you up in a few minutes.

Jeri: Thanks Takato, I will be waiting for you.

Takato: See ya!

Jeri: Bye!

----------------------

Takato hung up and gave another tired sigh but then he smiled and got ready to go. In a few minutes he was ready to go.

He walked slowly towards Jeri house, the questions that invaded him in the morning had come back to mock him now, he sighed again, but this time was because he was tired of this thoughts, without noticing he found himself in front of Jeri's house. Before he could ring the bell, Jeri came out to greet him.

"Hi Takato" Jeri said as she gave him a quick kiss on his on the lips. Takato smiled, Jeri closed the door to her house and took Takato's hand and walked away.

"You look great" Takato said smiling at her but Jeri didn't turn to look at him.

"So…how was school?" Jeri asked smiling to Takato but she didn't looked at his eyes.

"Umm….boring" Takato replied smiling to himself and noticed that Jeri avoided any eye contact with him. 'Why doesn't she want to look at me?'

"You always say that Takato, I mean what did you did at school?" Jeri insisted while she kept looking forward.

"Uh…well, nothing really, I just go to classes and then to work that's all" Takato said feeling tired again. 'Why is she acting like this? She is never like this…well she almost never ask me so many questions'

Jeri didn't say anything after that, and they kept walking in silence towards the house of Jeri's friend.

As they got there, a young man with brown hair and blue eyes opened the door, he smiled as soon as he saw Jeri.

"Hi, Ryo this is Takato. Takato, this is my friend Ryo" Jeri introduced them smiling at both of them. 'Why didn't she told him I'm her fiancé'

"Nice to meet you Takato. Glad you could make it Jeri" Ryo said while shaking hands with Takato.

"Yeah same here" Takato said not to happy at the look that Ryo was giving Jeri. 'Yeah right, why are you looking at my fiancée like that?'

"Come in" Ryo said letting them in.

They got inside the house only to be greeted by a crowd of dancing, drinking and talking people. Takato instantly felt more uncomfortable, he didn't know anyone in this party except for Jeri and now the still glancing Ryo. 'He is really starting to annoy me!!'

"Do you want to dance Takato?" Jeri asked with enthusiasm.

"Ummm….sorry Jeri but I'm a little tired" Takato said still glaring at Ryo, who now was grinning.

"Well, Jeri, I could dance with you if you want and if your friend doesn't mind" Ryo said grinning.

"Excuse me. I'm her fiancée and I…" "He doesn't mind" Takato couldn't finish as Jeri interrupted him and left with Ryo.

Takato decided to let this one go and let Jeri had fun, meanwhile he will go to the balcony to take some fresh air and to have some peace and silence, the smoke of the cigarettes lingering in the room bothered him, he never had liked to smoke nor be near smokers so without a second thought he left to the nearest balcony.

As soon as he was out he took a deep breath of the almost clean air, he then sighed yet again tiredly. 'Jeri is acting different today, I wonder what's up with her'

Before getting the chance to think deeper into it, someone opened the door leading to the balcony, he turned to look at who it was and his breath was taken away.

"What a jerk! This is the last time I try to make mom happy and go out with someone she introduced me" a red-headed beauty said, it was obvious that she wasn't aware of Takato's presence.

Takato let out the breath he was holding, he was still a little shocked by her presence, she had her red hair tied in a pony-tail and she had violet eyes, her eyes showed how annoyed and angered she was.

Takato was still speechless, he couldn't think in something to say, but for his relief, she noticed him before he could say something that could make her be more angered.

"Who are you and how long have you been there?" the girl asked angrily.

"Uhh..ummm…ah…" Takato couldn't form a coherent phrase and he could feel how his cheeks were getting warmer and warmer. 'Say something, say something, say something damn it!!'

Takato only got more nervous as the girl in front of him raised an eyebrow while looking at him as if he was crazy.

"Ummm…I'm Takato Matsuki and I was here before you arrived, sorry I didn't say anything but….uhhh….I didn't know what to say" Takato say while feeling even more nervous and his mind went blank again.

"Well, Takato, if you tell someone what I said when I got outside here…I will kill you and I'm not bluffing, and if you care to know, my name is Rika Nonaka" Rika said now giving something between a smile and a smirk at what Takato felt breathless again.

"Ummm…I..I care to know…is nice to meet you…Ms. Nonaka" Takato said still with nervousness.

"I will give you the privilege of letting you call me by my first name" Rika said still giving that mix of a smile and a smirk.

Takato shook his head as soon as an image of Jeri reached his troubled mind, and he decided to not see the girl before him as he was looking at her moments ago but he couldn't help but think 'If only…' but he didn't dare to think further than that.

"So, why are you here?" Rika said trying to make a conversation.

"Uh? Ummm…my girlfriend wanted to dance but I didn't feel like dancing so she started to dance with an idiot" Takato said feeling relieved that he felt annoyed again with that fact.

"Let me guess, the idiot's name is Ryo, isn't it?" Rika said with mockery.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Takato asked curious.

"Easy, there is only one idiot inside there and it is Ryo Akiyama" Rika said with annoyance and disgust.

"You know him?" Takato said feeling jealousy and guilt again.

"Yeah, he is the jerk I was talking about" Rika said and gave a sad look to Takato.

'Why did she just looked at my like that?' Takato wondered as Rika turned to look at the view that this balcony offered and kept avoiding his gaze. 'What is it that everyone tries to avoid my gaze tonight?'

The guilt came again as Takato felt again amazed by Rika again and as any other troubled thought left his mind such as any thought of Jeri dancing with an idiot faded only to be replaced by what was that Ryo did to annoy the beautiful girl before him.

But not to much time later the images of Jeri came rushing to his mind reminding him that he was engaged but again the thoughts like 'If only….' keep coming to his mind and he still didn't dare to think of it further and this thoughts were followed by the memories of him and Jeri.

Takato took a deep breath and decided to see where Jeri was and what was she doing, he opened a little the door to have a look inside the house, and then spotted Jeri and for his displeasure she was still with Ryo, Takato's blood boiled as he saw Ryo bending down to kiss her….

End Chapter 1.

Freak: That was all for now. XDDDD it might have been a little boring, but the interesting part is about to start, this was just like an introduction to the fic.

Aerisakura: Hope you had liked this first chapter.

Logan: Now, who would you want to be focused the next chapter?

MMX2: You want it to be Rika, Jeri, Ryo or Henry?

Freak: Thought Henry didn't appear in this first chapter, it doesn't mean he won't be part of this fic.

MMX2: We'll try to have next chapter soon but we are behind in many other fics, just that we start new ideas to not leave them forgotten.
