A wish come true- Chapter 2/ The Shinjuku Annual Ball.
Disclaimer: I don't own digimon.
Rika's POV.
I woke up at around ten-thirty. I agreed, along with Jeri, that we would help Kayleigh and get ready there. We were getting picked up from Jeri's resturant at four. Henry and Takato would arrive at six, Ryo at seven. And I was glad he wasn't spending the night. I liked Ryo alot. He cared foe me and he was one of the only people who actually did. And I was very grateful. I didn't want to go out with him just yet. After all, I figured he'd ask me to dance tonight. I decided that I would dance with him and disapear out of sight after the meal. Along with Kayleigh, Henry, Takato and Jeri.
I walked into my bathroom and slipped out of my nightclothes and took a long warm shower. Tonight was going to be okay. I had a good feeling about it. For some reason im glad I gave Kayleigh a chance. I related to her alot. We were alike.
After breakfast, showering, getting dressed I wondered outside. It was a cool autumn morning. I loved the Autumn. It was my favourite season.
"Rika phonecall!" I heard my Grandma call from the kitchen. I headed inside and took the phone from her hands.
"Hello?"
"Hi Rika it's Henry."
"Oh hello. What do you want?" I asked icily. I liked Henry and everything, but I didn't really want to talk to him today. At least not yet anyway.
"I want to ask you something."
"Well?" I asked impatiently. It was nearing noon. I was leaving for Jeri's in a half hour.
"Do you think Kayleigh likes me?" I admit I was shocked but I smirked all the same.
"Why? Do you like her, loverboy?" I knew exactly what he'd be like he'd be blushing and I couldn't help smile. Imagining his face on the other side of the line.
"Oh forget it!" He said fustrated.
"No, sorry." I laughed a little then returned my voice to a serious one. "Ask her to dance tonight."
"Err thats the thing, I would but I c-"
"Can't dance. Well at least it's something you can't do. I'll be over asap. I gotta call Jeri first." and with that I hung up leaving him spluttering a load of jibberish. I rolled my eyes and picked the phone back up to call Jeri.
"Hey Jeri. Im gonna be late. I've gotta teach Henry to dance."
"You can dance?" Jeri sounded surprised.
"Yeah, well I got to these balls alot. It's something you need to learn when your mother is a supermodel." I heard Jeri giggle abit.
"Okay well be here at half past two, okay? I need your help on something."
"Yep will do." And again I placed the phone back in place. "Bye grandma, tell mom i'll see her tonight." I shouted grabbing the bag with my outfit and a jacket.
In no time at all I was outside Henry's door. He answered it quickly and I walked inside. Lucky for him no-one was there. It was half twelve. That gave me two hours to teach him something. I was thankful to find out he was the only one here.
Henry's POV.
It wasn't as hard as I expected. It took my half an hour to learn the basics and by two o'clock Rika had got my dancing like a pro. I didn't know she had it in her.
"Thanks Rika. That's helped me out alot!" I said as we sat down, soda's in our hands.
"Thats fine, but you owe me big, and you tell no-one I taught you how to dance. If you do, then your dead." Rika said it simply but glared all the same.
"So does she like me?" I asked her nervously. Yesterday when I met Kayleigh, I was mesmerised by how pretty she was. Her hair was long and Black. She had two fushia pink streaks on either side of her face as her hair was in a ponytail, similar to Rika's, but not as spikey. Her eyes were a clear icy like blue. Kayleigh's figure was something else. She was petite and slim but she had curves. Very nice ones too if I must say.
"Kayleigh? No she said she hated you." Rika taunted. I looked at her.
"Oh" was my only reply.
"Henry, i'm kidding. By the way you looked at each other you could tell how much you liked her and she liked you. It was sickening actualy." Rika snorted then looked at her wrist watch. "I gott go. Kayleigh's limo is picking my up at three at Jeri's. I'll see you tonight." And with that she walker out of my apartment.
I smiled to myself. At least Kayleigh liked me. Maybe she'd be at my school. I thought about it for a while. At around five I was snapped awake my Takato banging on the door. Kayleigh's Limo was also picking us up. Here in an hour. I let him in and we went to my room. I showed him what I was planning to wear and took it to the bathroom to change.
Jeri's POV.
Rika came dead on time. I had two dresses layed out on my bed. A long pale green one, and a lemon yellow one. Both with gloves and matching shoes. Rika picked the yellow one and I packed it into a bag. I couldn't wait for this ball. And a sleepover.
While we were waiting, Rika and I talked about alot of stuff. Drifting to the topic of Kayleigh and Henry.
"So do you think they'll get together?" I asked Rika exictedly.
"Im not sure, Kayleigh's alot like me. She won't want Henry to hurt her. She's told me about her ex boyfriends and they all seem real horrible. I wouldn't want to meet them." was Rika's reply. We dicussed it all the way to Kayleigh's house. When I saw it, I was amazed at how big it was. Shinjuku Mansion. What a palace.
A strange old guy opened the door.
"Ahh you must be Miss Nonaka and Miss Katou. Please follow me, Miss Kayleigh is waiting for you." Rika and I exchanged glances and followed the butler guy up about three flights of stairs. The whole house was richly decorated. We reached Kayleigh's room. The Butler had carried out bags. I noticed he knocked twice on a Silver door. All the rest were wooden and gold. So I guessed it was Kayleigh's room.
Kayleigh's POV.
Alfred let in Rika and Jeri. I watched them nervously as they entered my room. There faces were amazed. The part they had entered was my main room. They gasped as they looked around. Hey anyone would, it's every teenagers dream to have a room like this. I had my own cinema surround sound television. A huge hi-fi next to a shelve of CD'S and DVD's. I also had my own little fridge part and dining set. It was a princess room.
"Hey, err would you like a tour?" I asked them smiling. I was still nervous. Alfred left us and I led them through one of the doors. As we walked through Jeri gasped again. "This is my study and Libary." The walls were packed from floor to bottom in books. At the far end was a desk with my laptop and telephone.
"Wow, this is amazing Kayleigh."
"Yeah, most kids only have a bedroom." Rika said as she looked around. We crossed into the next room. My training room, being a kickboxer and all I had to stay in shape. I started Kickboxing when I was six. I had all my belts but still had a Sensei come in once a week to practise. It was tough but I loved it. Martial Arts was something I enjoyed. All my belts and outfits were hung on a rail the ran around the whole room. In the corner was a glass carorsel type spinning thing that showed my trophies and on the walls were certificates and pictures of me recieving belts and during tournaments.
"Henry'l like this." Rika smirked.
"Why?" I smiled as I turned to face her. Jeri continued to stare.
"Cause he's an expert at this stuff too."
"Oh right." I smiled still and walked over to the last room this way. "This is my music room. My favourite room." Again Jeri gasped. Rika noticed my guitars. I had five electri and two acoustic. I also had three flutes and a keyboard. The room was thr brightest of all of my rooms. Pink in colour with hearts and peace signs on the wall.
The girls followed me and through another door. This time to my bedroom.
"Mother said that you can all stay in here instead of the guest rooms." I had two queensizes beds and a sofa-bed. "You girls can have the queen sized bed. The boys can make to with the sofa. Sorry you have to share. Through there is my bathroom and through there is my closet. Now it'd almost four. Lets start getting ready. Jeri you change first." I said pointing over at the bathroom.
By six o'clock we were all dressed up ready for the ball.
"Miss, Master's Henry and Takato are here." Himeko called.
"Send them in" I called back. As they came in im sure there eye's were about to burst out of their heads. Takato complimented Jeri on how beautifully she was and told Rika her dress looked nice. Before Takato started talking Rika cut him off and said
"Kayleigh why don't you show Henry around." She pointed to the door that lead to my study. I smiled and shook my head as I walked over to the door. Henry following.
As we stepped through he gasped like Jeri had. But I continues to walk.
"This is what Rika wanted me to show you" I said opening the next door.
Henry's POV.
I was amazed by Kayleigh's home. Shinjuku Mansion looked alot brighter than it had before. Rika said something but I couldn't take my eyes off Kayleigh. She was wearing a light pink gown and matching gloves. I notices she was wearing heels but they weren't very high. I was still a good few inches taller than her. I followed Kayleigh through her study and into what looked like a training room. It seemed she was rather qualified in Martial arts.

Henry and Kayleigh were sitting on the floor talking about her kickboxing. They swapped tournament stories. A bell was rung from somewhere and the two teenagers walked back to Kayleigh's main room. The five of them walked to the grand hall where the anual ball was being held. Henry offered his arm to Kayleigh in a gentelman fashion and she loosley linked her arm around mine.
Rika met up with Ryo and they danced together, as did Takato and Jeri. After about twenty miniutes Henry asked Kayleigh to dance. Her acceptance made him smile, and his smile gave her a warm feeling. A feeling of love, but not how the young girl knew it.
Kayleigh looked into his gry/blue eyes and saw gentelness and caring. At eight o'clock the diner bell was sounded and everyone took their seats. As soon as the meal was served everyone began to eat and happy chatter buzzed around the room.
