Hey everyone! Thanks for all the reviews! I can't believe it! 35 reviews for 'ETERNAL MEMORIES'!! Well anyways I think I waited too long on this story... Thanks to everyone's reviews and all the stories I read, I've become a much better fanfic writer! I liked the other story better but I have to finish this one no matter what. Besides I still have other things in my life besides writing fanfics like school- It's gonna be tough now that I am a freshman, the other stories of my `Love Season`, and other stuff. So here's the next chapter!!

BTW, Rukato actually might be first because I don't exactly have an idea for Daikari yet. If you don't know what I mean, read my other story chapter 4.

P.S. Right now I'm focusing on "My Love for You", "ETERNAL MEMORIES", and "DEALING WITH LOVE" (Rukato).

ENJOY!

DiSCLAiMER: I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON!!!!! I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I DO THIS ANYWAYS... SHOULD BE QUITE OBVIOUS BY NOW.

My Love For You

CHAPTER 3

Winter Wonderland!

'I hope I don't make a fool of myself... I can skate but I'm not even that good.' Izumi thought sadly.

"Izumi?" Takuya asked.

"Huh? Wha?" Izumi said after she snapped out of her reverie.

Takuya smiled. "Good I thought I lost you there for a minute."

(I decided to do normal POV from now on cause going back and forth is hard work!)

Izumi: "Sorry! So are we there yet?"

Takuya: Nope just a few more minutes.

Izumi simply nodded.

***

"Let's get off!" Takuya said. "Take my hand and when I count to three jump!"

(I'm making this up!)

Izumi nodded again.

"1... 2... 3!"

They both jumped off and somehow Izumi landed on top of Takuya. They both blushed and Izumi got off.

They brushed off the snow of each other and realized that Davis and Hikari didn't jump off yet.

The two looked back and noticed that they were to busy making out to notice that their best friends had gotten off the lift.

Takuya and Izumi laughed.

They both walked together to find a place to rent some skates.

***

Izumi and Takuya were sitting on a bench next to the skating pond. They were both tying their skates.

Izumi who had white skates carefully walked hand in hand with Takuya to the pond. Then unexpectedly, she tripped over a stick on the ground and fell into Takuya's arms.

They both blushed bright red.

Takuya laughed while blushing, "Well up ya go." He pushed her up.

Izumi blushed. "So do you REALLY don't know how to skate?"

Takuya nodded.

"Okay then I'll teach you! I only know the basics though..." Izumi smiled.

Takuya: Okay.

"First you do this..."

***

Takato and Rika were sitting on the ski lift behind Takuya and Izumi.

Both would occasionally look at the view and pretend they were looking for someone. Silence was the thing that was in the air plus some nervousness.

"So... w-what do you want to d-do?" Takato stuttered.

Rika chuckled. "I dunno Gogglehead... Ski maybe? That's what why we're here aren't we?"

Takato nodded and blushed furiously.

'Aah this is fun! I wonder what I should do when he finds out I, The Famous Digimon Queen/ Ice Queen, can't ski...' She glanced at Takato and noticed he was blushing. 'Does he like me or something?'

Rika was confused but said nothing and continued to look at the mountains.

*** (meanwhile at the mansion)

"Can we get out of here now???" a voice begged. "I'm starving!!"

"Fine Demiveemon!! But be careful! Someone from the outside might see you!" a man said.

"Ok Ok!! But as long as I get food I'm a happy camper Chris!" DemiVeemon assured in his cute voice.

The man known as Chris was none other than Junpei's butler said. "Okay just go into the kitchen and get some food out of our stubborn chef!"

"What about the rest of us?" a voice said. "We want to get out too!!"

"OK Geez!" Chris shouted.

"Junpei better be give me a raise because of what I'm putting up for being stuck with these guys!!" he grumbled to himself.

Chris walked up to a certain room and unlocked the door. Seven blurs of colors flew out from the door.

"About time!" a little pink plant said. "Where are our partners? I wanna see Sora now!"

The others nodded and yelled for their partners as well.

"Calm down! There away on a trip!" Chris assured. "Now let's settle those stomachs of yours huh?"

"YAY!!!" The digimon shouted in joy. Luckily they were all in their in- training forms except Salamon.

***

(BTW I might be skipping some days like 2 or 3 days...)

Takuya was getting the hang of ice skating and Izumi who had enjoyed all the times Takuya had fallen, was sitting on the bench taking a break.

Izumi was tired and decided to lie down on the bench. 'I wonder what I should do... Tomorrow's the dance and I still don't have a date... I hope Junpei doesn't ask me. I like him and all but I don't feel the same way I do for him as I do for Takuya.' *sighes*

Izumi was deep in thought when a snowball hit her in the face. She got up and turned to whoever threw the snowball.

Takuya was on the ground clutching his stomach, laughing. However, he wasn't the only one there. All the guys were there. Izumi wondered where her girl friends were.

"Hey Izumi" Hikari said from behind the bench. "Enjoying your dream I see?"

Izumi blushed and brushed the snow off. She stood up and turned around and saw that all the girls were there- Sora, Hikari, and Rika.

The girls were holding back on laughing. But they could also see Izumi was really angry partly because there was practically steam coming out of her ears.

Takuya suspiciously looked at Izumi because she was whispering at the girls. 'Surely she can't challenge us... There are nine of us guys and only four of them!' His question was soon answered.

"Oof!" Takato shouted when a snowball landed on his head.

"That's PAYBACK Gogglehead!!" Rika yelled.

*flashback*

Takato and Rika had gotten off the ski lift and rented some skis. Rika didn't really know how to ski but Takato who did taught her.

Rika took in a breath and started her journey down the hill. Unknown to her, Takato was being clumsy, and had lost control of his skis. He crashed into her and together they rolled down the hill.

When they finally reached the bottom, Takato could tell he would have to run all the way to England, to escape Rika's wrath on him. But luckily Tai and Sora were down there.

Sora and Tai saw the whole thing and you could tell they were trying hard to hold in their laughter.

"R-Rika?" Takato mumbled. "Are you o-o-okay?" He helped her up.

"I'm FINE! Takato You're going to P-" Rika snapped.

"Nevermind that! Let's go find Davis! He just called me!" Tai intervened.

Takato mouth a thank you to the other gogglehead. Tai simply nodded.

***

Davis had called Tai on his cell phone to come witness he and Takuya's start of a snowball fight against the girls.

*end of flashback*

This started the big war!

Apparently because of Izumi's and Ruki's anger for their "boyfriends," the girls were winning.

Izumi was striking the guys like there was no tomorrow. Rika who was use to this anger just kept striking as well. The girls joined in on the snow fight.

***

After the fight, everyone climbed into Junpei's suv limo and went home.

On the way home, Izumi whom was sitting in the back with Takuya, Davis, and Hikari, had fallen asleep on Takuya.

Hikari too had fallen asleep on her boyfriend. Davis was use to this but Takuya blushed a tomato red color. Davis smirked at his best friend.

Rika was sitting next to Takato. She stared outside at the snow and enjoyed her view.

Takato, however, was not enjoying the moment. He was still sore from the snowballs Rika had hit him with plus the smack he earned from hitting her back when the war had already ended.

He though, 'Wow my head hurts! I wonder how can I love a girl who's this rough! Damn! Love sure is painful!' Takato rubbed his head and laid back in his seat and fell asleep.

***

Back at the mansion!

After all the digimon had finished devouring everything in the fridge, Chris babysat them. He received a phone call from his boss, that they were returning and that he should be ready.

Chris shouted at the digimon. "Come on!! I need to get you ready if you want to see your friends again!!"

They calmly sat down and listened.

"Master Junpei wishes all of you to put in a bag!"

At this point, the baby digimon had begun whining.

"You're each going to be dressed up for your partners! I have already arranged for some clothes for you!"

"But we never wore clothes before!!" Koromon complained.

"True but don't worry they're nothing but a simple hat or something."

The digimon nervously agreed.

***

Everyone climbed out of the car wearily from their fight and walked into the house.

Chris greeted them and said there was a surprise for them waiting in the living room.

Junpei who was already waiting for them was holding a large bag.

"What's in the bag Junpei?" Kouichi asked.

"Oh nothing... Just THIS!" Junpei replied. And with that, he opened the bag and out flew blurs.

Two pink flashes flew to Tai and Sora. They were Koromon and Yokomon. Both were wearing matching Santa Claus hats.

A blue thing flew to Daisuke and a Puppy-like digimon walked to Daisuke and Kari. (I prefer this name)

"DEMIVEEMON!!" Davis shouted.

"Davish!!" Demiveemon shouted in his too cute voice.

Kari yelled. "Salamon!!"

"KARI!" Salamon yelled back.

Everyone had received their partners except for Digidestined from the Frontier. Everyone cept them hugged their Digimon partner and were laughing.

*** (oh come on! You think I was going to write that for everyone!)

Everyone thanked Junpei and went to their rooms. Kari was happy to share Salamon with her best friend and the same with Takuya and Davis.

Rika enjoyed her "what happen to you since our adventures ended" chat with Renamon until her friend asked the question. Sora couldn't pull Rika out of this one because she was with Tai.

Before the "question," Rika was in thought of if Takato would ask her to the dance. She knew she shouldn't have hurt him so much but she enjoyed it.

"You're thinking about him aren't you Rika?" Renamon asked.

Rika snapped. "So what if I am! *sighes* (in a calm voice) I can't help it Renamon... I wonder if he likes me in the same way..."

Renamon replied. "You know Rika that he might like you but you'll never know unless you confront him. Do you really want to live the rest of your life knowing you could've had a chance with him but didn't do anything?"

"She's right you know." A voice from outside her room said.

"Sora?" Rika asked.

"Yup! The one and only!" Sora walked in with Yokomon in her arms and sat on her bed.

"You know how I feel about this Sora!" Rika responded. "You being the Digidestined of Love and all could at least give me some advice."

"I did. It's the same thing Renamon told you." Sora said.

Alright alright... I'm going to sleep! Night!" Rika said.

Sora whispered. "Good Night!"

Renamon said in a low voice. "You're up to something aren't you?"

"Of course not! Why would you say that?" Sora snickered.

"I can tell... You plan to set Takato and Rika up, right?" Renamon said.

Sora being discovered, said. "You won't tell her will you?"

"No. But I'm going to make sure this works." Renamon smiled.

Sora nodded and turned off the light and went to sleep.

***

"Izumi!" Kari said.

Izumi: What!?!

"You know that the party/dance is tomorrow night!" Kari said. "You also know that Takuya didn't ask you yet! Maybe it's because you didn't tell him how you feel yet!"

"I know I know!! But what if he doesn't love me? Did that ever occur to you!?" Izumi shouted.

"I know that of course! But do you prefer to living life with the guilt that you could have had Takuya or be happy with sharing a life with him!?" Kari shot back.

"Alright I'll tell him tomorrow if you lay off! No plans or anything!" Izumi warned.

Kari smiled and nodded. Izumi sat on her bed and Salamon crawled into her lap and fell asleep.

"Well it seems my little friend has taken a liking to you, Izumi!" Kari smiled.

"Yeah..." Izumi smiled and stroked Salamon on her head.

***

"Takuya! Are you ever going to ask Izumi to dance?" Davis said.

"I am! I guess maybe tomorrow after breakfast when we start the decorations." Takuya stated.

"Okay! But you better do it soon!" Davis warned.

"Davish?" Demiveemon asked.

"There's a message for you from Kari." Demiveemon said looking at the D- terminal.

"Wonder what she would want at this time..." Davis said.

He walked over to Demiveemon and read it. He blushed and walked out of the room. He only said "Be right Back!"

Takuya was confused and went to read the message. But it was gone.

"Oh well! Well it's just you and me Demiveemon!" Takuya smiled.

Demiveemon said. "Okay!" He jumped off Davis's bed and jumped on Takuya's lap.

Takuya tickled the little blue dragon.

Demiveemon giggled. "S-S-Stop!! I can't breath!"

"Ok" Takuya laughed.

***

Davis walked into the bathroom and found Kari in there.

"Well it's about time!" Kari smiled.

"Sorry! I was talking to Takuya!" Davis said sheepishly.

Kari kissed him and he returned it passionately.

They both blushed.

"So why did you call me? Aside from the kiss I mean. Davis asked while scratching his head.

Kari replied. "Because Izumi is nervous about the Takuya thing! She's afraid that he won't ask her to the dance and that would mean he doesn't love her."

"The same with Takuya" Davis said. "Except he is nervous that Izumi will reject him."

"What are we going to do?" Kari asked.

"How about- Davis started "we force those two together tomorrow when we start decorating for tonight's party!"

Kari nodded. "Good Idea but what about Takato and Rika?"

"We'll just tell Sora and Henry about it!"

Just then Sora and Henry came in.

"Uh... hi guys! What brings you here?" Davis asked embarrassed.

"Same reason as you guys." Henry said.

"We heard what you guys said and we agree." Sora said.

Davis replied. "Then it's settled! We have to get them to confess at the dance and get the guys to ask the girls during the decorating."

Everyone nodded and left to go to their rooms.

***

After breakfast, everyone was separated into groups of 4 to get started on decorating the house for the party/dance. Junpei couldn't do anything with his guests because he had to go to his tennis lessons.

Takato and Rika were going with Sora and Tai.

Takuya and Izumi were with Davis and Kari.

Tomoki, Henry, Kouji, and Kouichi decided to pair together.

The four guys took upstairs to decorate. Takato, Rika, Tai, and Sora got downstairs. And Takuya and his group were assigned to the outside.

Everyone walked to where they were assigned to decorate.

***

Davis and Kari had started on the roof with the lights which left Takuya and Izumi to the ground with the decorations like the snowman, reindeer, and etc.

Izumi enjoyed the snow outside. There was a blanket of snow and beautiful snowflakes were falling. It was a pretty winter wonderland! She thought it was perfect for the day of the party!

'Wow it's a great day! Well I better keep my promise to Davis and ask her. Here goes... I hope she accepts!!'

"Umm... Izumi?" Takuya gulped and asked.

Izumi said while sticking a candy cane in the ground. "Yeah?"

"D-d-d-do you want to go t-to the p-party with m-me?" Takuya stuttered. " I understand if you're-"

Before Takuya could finish, Izumi had hugged him.

"YES! Of course I'll go with you!" Izumi smiled. "I've been waiting fo ryou to ask me!"

"Really?" Takuya's face brightened. "Alright!!!!" Takuya started swinging Izumi around.

**Meanwhile on the Roof**

Davis grinned. "Mission Accomplished."

"Yeah! You see how happy Takuya and Izumi actually are?" Kari smiled. "All I have to do is make sure she has a great dress to go to the party."

"She? YOU better have something hot to wear!" Davis laughed and showed his goofy grin.

Kari laughed and kissed him.

Davis kissed his love back passionately and it lasted for five minutes when they heard a shout.

"HEY YOU GUYS DONE MAKING OUT UP THERE?" Takuya shouted. "Cause you're ABOUT TO SLIDE OFF THE ROOF ABOUT NOW!"

Davis and Kari pulled away and noticed they were about to fall. But it was too late to stop them. They slid into through tons and tons of snow and then landed in another pile of snow.

Takuya and Izumi laughed so hard they were crying and then walked over to help the sad couple.

"Very funny!" Davis grumbled. "But at least you didn't suffer with me!"

Kari however had joined with the laughing. After they were done, they continued for the decorations outside.

*** (meanwhile inside)

Tai and Sora were in the dining room decorating. Takato and Rika were decorating the living room together.

'Well here goes... I know I'm doing suicide but I gotta try!' Takato thought.

"Rika? Will you go to the party with me?" Takato nervously asked.

Rika froze. 'What did that gogglehead just say?'

"Excuse me?"

'Oh she didn't hear me...' "Will you go to the-" Takato began.

Rika walked up to Takato and gave him a peck on the cheek.

'Well it's time I told him...' Rika thought.

"Wha?" Takato said confused.

"I like you Takato "Gogglehead" Matsuda." Rika confessed.

"Really?" Takato asked surprised. "I like you too."

He kissed her on the lips and smiled.

Rika smiled back and felt so happy.

Tai, Sora, and Renamon and Guilmon saw this and grinned.

They all thought at the same time. 'It's about time...'

Guilmon was still confused.

"Renamon? Why did Rika smile? She never smiles. And why did Takatomon kiss her?" Guilmon asked confused.

Renamon began. "Because they love each other, Guilmon."

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

Takuya and Izumi haven't confessed yet but will they at the party? There's a suppose surprise at the party so what's gonna happen? Who are the other guys going with?
