chapter's rated PG for mild language. Blame TK for that part.
When Kari was leaning in, I knew exactly what was going on, so I did the same. "What am I doing?" I thought, "Am I really going to kiss her?" I had never kissed anybody, so I was a little excited that she was going to be the first. Then, I heard Gatomon from the couch say "I think he's waking up!"
"Damn!" I thought to myself as Kari fell off the counter, "He's waking up! Why couldn't he wait for two more seconds?!"
Kari got herself up and walked to the couch where Davis was sitting up, blinking. I grudgingly jumped off the counter and followed her.
"What happened?" Davis asked when he saw us.
"You fell through a table and went unconscious." Kari said, going to get a washcloth.
"We've been banned from that pizza place for life," I said, laughing to make it seem like I wasn't raging mad like I really was at the moment.
"I fell through a table?" he asked, still a little dazed and touching the giant, baseball shaped lump on his head.
"Broke it clean through with that rock hard head of yours." I replied.
Kari came back with a washcloth and gave it to Davis, "Does your head hurt?"
"Yeah…." He looked at me for a second, then looked away, obviously still mad.
"Do you want something to drink, or something?" Kari asked, concerned.
"No, thanks." He said, getting up. "I think I'll just go home."
"Do you want me to go with you?"
"No thanks, Kari. I'll go by myself." He opened the door, went through, slamming it on his way out.
When he was gone, Kari turned to me, "He's mad."
"I better go after him." I said, heading for the door. I looked back at her, "See you later."
"Yeah, bye." I didn't want to leave her, but I knew I should try and make amends with Davis. I left and ran down the stairs to try and catch up to him. He was about to leave the building when I grabbed him from behind.
"Davis! What's wrong?"
"Oh, like you don't know," he said, pushing me away.
"Honestly, Davis, I don't. Does this have to do with the movie thing?"
"Do you think I really care if you lie to me? I've lied to you thousands of times!"
"You have?"
"What gets me is that you would lie to me just so you could go out with…" he paused, "Forget it, man! I don't need this!" He pushed me out of the way and left, just in time to catch the bus.
I decided not to go back to Kari just then. I wasn't sure what I would tell her even if I did go back. I went home, instead.
"TK, what's wrong?" Mom asked me when I got home.
"Hmm? Oh, it's nothing, Mom. I have a lot of homework, I'm going to my room, OK?"
"Sure." I probably wouldn't have told her about what was going on, anyway. I didn't want her mixed up with my affairs. I went to my room and plopped down on the bed.
"Hi TK." Patamon said, flying over to me, "Long day?"
"Yeah." I wanted to make it sound like I was fine, but Patamon knew me too well.
"Something's wrong."
"No, it's nothing."
"Sure it is. You only sound like that when something's bothering you. TK, please tell me."
I knew I couldn't keep anything from him, so I told him all about the day's misfortunes.
"You shouldn't have lied."
"I know that already. But how do I make it better? Davis won't talk to me!"
"I don't know, but if you guys are really friends, you'll figure it out eventually."
"Thanks, that REALLY helps."
"Good."
"I was being sarcastic…"
I didn't sleep very well that night. I kept thinking about Davis and about my missed chance with Kari. When I DID get to sleep, I had horrible dreams where some mysterious digimon took Kari away and Davis refused to help me. It was very upsetting.
The next morning, a Saturday, I woke up hearing my D-terminal beeping in the corner. I drowsily got up and looked at it. It was a message from Yolei.
"'I think something's going on in the Digital World. There's some strange signal emanating from one spot. I'll attach the coordinates. I'd go check it out myself, but I have an eye appointment. I'm getting contacts! Wish me luck!' – Yolei"
I was about to reply when a message came in from Cody.
"'Sorry, I can't go either. Kendo practice. I missed the last two practices, and Grandpa's getting mad. Sorry.' – Cody"
Davis' message came next.
"'I'll go. Who's with me?' – Davis"
I laughed and sent my own message.
"'Short message, Motamiya! I'll go. See you there!' – TK" (A/N: I forgot how to spell Davis' last name! Sorry!)
I waited to see who else was going, when another message from Davis came in.
"'Fine, TS, come if you want to. See if I care.' – Davis"
"Back to calling me names again, Davis?" I said aloud, getting up.
"'Don't leave without me! I'll see you boys there!' – Kari"
"Good, Kari's coming." I said to myself. I waited a few minutes to see if Ken would be coming, but he never replied. "Probably doesn't have his D- terminal on. Hey, Patamon! Get up!"
I typed the coordinates Yolei sent in to my computer, and left. I arrived and met Kari there.
"Hey. Where's Davis?"
"He was here a couple minutes ago, but he went back to see if Ken was going. I think his D-terminal is broken, that's why he didn't reply."
"Oh. So, what exactly is it that Yolei was talking about?"
"I'm not sure. Doesn't look like there's anything here."
At that moment, Davis and Veemon popped out from the TV behind me. "Oh, look who decided to show up! Forgive me if I don't jump for joy, TE."
"Where's Ken?"
"He's out doing public service for his school."
"Just like him to be out helping the poor!" Kari said, smiling.
"So, what's with this 'strange signal'?" Davis asked. Even as the words left his mouth, there was a sudden rumbling, and the ground shook, sending us all to the ground.
"What was that?" I asked as the ground shook again. I looked back towards the woods. I saw something huge and dark making its way towards us, although I couldn't tell what it was. Suddenly, I saw something small and red flying towards us from the mysterious figure. "Look out!"
There ya go! A nice long one for ya! Hope you enjoy, and look for the next chapter to come later!
