I wasn't really trying to create this fic I was trying to work on another...It just kind of happened. So I hope you like it... and if anyone reading this has a copy of 'A Fallen Angel's Love' by HikariAngel (my old name), it is a Ken and Kari(Kekari) fic that I wrote a while ago and before this summer I went to make additions to it and it was gone. I didn't have a copy of it. I only have the draft versions, which I wrote. They were highly altered while transferring them onto the computer. I want to finish it, so I need you help. Please contact me at Fairyroses216@yahoo.com or AIM me at Fairyroses216. Rika WILL see a bit out of character, but in reality all we see is a persons outward appearance and act, not what they secretly think and feel. And anyways, this is years after the D-Reaper. When the D-Reaper took place, Ryo was 13, Alice and Kazu were 12, Rika, Henry, Takato, and Jeri were 11, Kenta was 10, Suzy was 9, Ai and Mako were 8. (I hate doing this, but I wanted to use the dubbed names. So I have the dubbed names and undubbed ages.) In this story it is two years later, so for those of you too lazy to do the math: Ryo-15, Alice and Kazu-14, Rika, Henry, and Takato-13, Kenta-12, Suzy-11, Ai and Mako- 10. But whatever. On to the story.

Anyone But You
by EmpressHikari
Chapter One
Rika sighed, impatiently as one of her mother's make up artists buzzed over her. 'Why did I ever let her talk me into this? I mean do I really want to go camping in the digital world with the other tamers with weekend. Okay, so I do. But not this bad.'
She could see her mother from here trying to impress her some guy in a suit.
'Oh great. Blah, blah, blah. Giggle. Blah, blah, blah. Joke. Laugh flirtatiously. Blah, blah. Drop hint. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.' She didn't think her mom did it on purpose, but she flirts in the same way with every guy she knows. Rika suspected that it was the reason her mother got so many dates.... but then again she never really kept any relationship for over six months. She almost felt pity for her. 'She falls in love so easily,.... and with all the wrong guys.'
"Ow...." She said, grabbing her hair where it had been pulled.
"My apologies, Ms. Nonaka." Said the man doing her hair, rather quickly, before she had time to turn and give him the death glare he expected.
...Not that she had any intention of giving him one, of course. And normally because of his reaction she would have given him one, except for the fact that if she moved then she would have her eye poked out by the thing that the make up lady, Melissa, was using to put eye shadow on her.
Rika hated it when people expected her to do or say things and knew how she would react before hand. But people could only very rarely do that. Well...most people. One tamer, Henry, always seemed to know what she actually meant. Which she really didn't mind, usually. Cause after all, he is her best friend. Other than that there was no one.
'Well...'
'Except for Him...' And even as she said it, her face contorted in disgust. It wasn't the fact that she hated him, cause she didn't. And it wasn't that he was disgusting or she couldn't stand to be around him. cause he wasn't and she could. It was one thing that he had said to her.
~*~Flashback to Two Months Ago~*~
"Bye, Rika." Jeri yelled as she hopped into her parent's car to leave the park, "Thanks for coming to the meeting. Now once we OK this camping thing with our parents and everyone do you PROMISE to come? I don't want to be the only girl."
"Alice is almost defiantly coming though," she replied with a smile, " So you_"
"Rika! I know she said but she never really talks to me. I like her, but she just kinda stares at me."
She laughed, "Alright. I'll go."
"THANK YOU!!!" Jeri practically flew out of the car and threw her arms around her, then, as quick as she went she was back in the car. "See, ya there!" And then she was gone, leaving her alone....Or not.
The boy beside her laughed hysterically.
Her smile faded, quickly. 'Oh great. I forgot HE was here.' "Oh, zip it , Akiyama."
He stopped laughing immediately. "Geez, Rika, lighten up."
She turned away from him and faced the sun, it was about seven-thirty, meaning she had a half hour until dark, when she walked home. Her mom had a date before she would pick up Rika, meaning she would be late. If she wasn't there by dark, Rika was walking home. So in other words she might as well start now cause her mom would most likely be in her boyfriends bedroom, eating up the basic, I-Love-You speech.
"Rika?"
"Yes?"
"How long will it be till your mom gets here?"
She shrugged.
"Oh. Well I don't know when my dad and his girlfriend, Brittany, will be here either."
She just stood there.
"GOD!"
She turned and looked at him.
"Oh. NOW you look at me.", He wore a very annoyed expression on his face. " I mean what is your problem?!? What did I ever do to you? You'll talk and joke with Jeri and Henry, and you'll even acknowledge Takato and the dynamic duo, but you don't even act as if I exist, unless it's to insult me."
She just stared at him, unable to speak.
"It's been what now, two..three year since I beat you? Will you just let it go?"
She finally regained her voice, her violet eyes met his blue ones, and she replied, "I'm sorry, Ryo. I wasn't trying to hurt your feeling or ignore you. I don't hate you," She paused and looked down. She didn't hate him. Not even close. But she did resent him. She didn't know if it was about the match though. Not completely anyways, "It's just...It's just that..." What was it? She didn't quite know herself.
She felt some thing touch her hand. She then quickly looked down to see Ryo, slide his hand into hers. She looked up, and realized how incredibly close they were. She blushed, barely noticeably. As much as she would hate to admit it. She liked holding Ryo's hand, being this close to him. 'But I don't have to admit it to any one.' He took his other hand and lifted her chin up, so she was looking in his eyes. "It's just." He said softly, "That you'll never forgive me." He looked sad as he said this. But she couldn't hold that information in her primary thoughts long enough to ask or even wonder why. The butterflies in her stomach were too busy flopping about, for her to really concentrate on anything except willing herself not to lean into him.
Then he let go. And he smiled at her, but only a halfway real smile. And left.
~*~ End Flashback~*~
But what he had said was true. She couldn't forgive him. But she didn't even know what she was mad at him for. It was only partly the match...'So why would I still_'
"Your REEAAD-dy" The clothes lady said is a high pitched, sing-song voice.
"Huh?" She looked around. Without realizing it, she had gone through both hair and makeup, as well as the second step of dressing without even realizing it.
"Come on, Rika. Your up!" the photographer called.

You Try, you fail You make a bad impression I cry, you fail Sticky situation I know you know It's your infatuation You'll stay, I'll go

My wings, they grow call it evolution Some things move slow With determination You ask, you pry It's your dissolution You wonder why?
I am not the girl You thought I would be I will never be So get over me I am not the girl I'm going to be Nothing more to say
You can't deal with change You can't handle me You won't let me be Why do I have to hear you say those things Over and over
Like I'm not this and I'm not that?
How many times do I have to listen to you
Try to make me be something that I'm not?
Why am I not this way
Why can't I do the things you want me to do?
Why can't I talk like you want me to talk?
Well, I'm tired of trying to make myself be
Who you want me to be
I am me
I don't foresee any resolution
You won't agree
Unfavorable reception

Do you hear me?
I am not the girl
You thought I would be
