Eevee: This is the chapter all of you have been awaiting for!
Rika: Yeah right.
Henry: This chapter sux. How can you do that to us?
Eevee: Shut up! I am the author of the story and I am free to do whatever I
want. Or else.
Rika: Yeah I know, I know. You will make all of us die right?
Eevee: How do you know?
Henry: It has been the hundredth times you tell us.
Eevee: *glare*
Rika: You can't do that to us.
Eevee: Why?
Henry: Cause you don't own us nor any of our digimons.
Eevee: Sigh. Nvm. Let's get on with the story.
+Chapter 5+ The dance
*Sunday 7pm*
Henry was standing outside Rika"s house waiting for her. He was very nervous. Well, this isn"t his first date but it is because of Rika he is going with, the Ice Queen, his best friend. Since she was his best friend, why is he nervous? Strange. Terriermon was not with him, he was not allowed to come.
Henry at last managed to get hold of himself and rang the door bell.
"Hi, Henry!" Rumiko said, "So you are Rika's date. I thought it was Ryo. But you two make a better couple."
"Huh?" Henry asked.
"No, it's nothing. Rika just refuse to tell us whom she is going with. She says it is a surprise." Rumiko smiled which Henry returned.
"So what do you think of Rika?" Rumiko asked.
"Huh?" Henry asked again. He looked surprised, why is Rika's mother asking him this?"
"As you can see, Rika is my best friend we always do project together." Henry answered.
"Not that I mean relationship, do you like her?" Rumiko asked again.
"." Henry thought for a while and said, "I think Rika is a perfect girl that any guy will like, but I only like her as a friend." Henry told her the truth but he was not even sure whether that was the truth.
"Henry!" A person at the door shouted.
"Rika!" Henry shouted back.
Rika walked beside Henry and said, "We should get going now. Bye mom!"
"Bye Ms Nonaka" Henry said.
Rika dragged Henry away and said, "Next time my mother tried to talk to you, ignore her. She is always a nuisance."
Henry grinned.
Suddenly, he stopped walking when he saw what Rika was wearing. She was in a pale blue plain long dress that showed her slim figure. A blue neckbadge that matched her dress was tied around her neck. She was also wearing white gloves that covered most of her arms. Her hair was tied into a high ponytail and was tied using a blue ribbon.
"You look beautiful." Henry managed to say, "Never seen you as beautiful as this."
"Never saw me in a dress before huh?" Rika said. Henry shook his head; "You never wear one!" Henry laughed.
"Well, I am wearing one now." Rika joked as both started laughing.
They continued walking to their destination in silence. When they reached Odaiba High School, (The dance is in the school, I am sorry that I have no detail as I never been in Japan and never experienced a dance before) it was already crowded. They walked through the dance floor where they saw their fellow tamers.
"Rika, Henry! Here!" Jeri waved to them.
"Hi guys." Rika said and Henry smiled.
"You two make a handsome couple!" Alice squealed.
"Thanks." Rika said as she took a sit next to Jeri and Henry. Both tamers ordered their drink and joined in the discussion with the rest when Kazu and Kenta interrupted.
"Do you want to dance, Heather?" Kazu bowed. All the guys wear the same attire as Henry. Takato is without his goggle and Kazu without his visor. Well, Kenta still has his glasses on.
"You too, Lika." Kenta followed suit.
"Sure" both girls answered and they let the boys lead them to the dance floor.
"Go on, ask her." Jeri nudged Henry.
"Okay, fine!" Henry walked to Rika and asked her, "Do you want to dance with me Rika?"
Rika hesitated and agreed eventually. Henry was glad to hear that, he will want to see how Rika dance. He led her to the dance floor. Everybody was eyeing them with jealousy. Of course, Henry was a popular boy in his school, and Rika the digimon queen. She and Ryo took part in the card game competition last year and they tied in the first place. (Is it possible?)
They started dancing slowly, both of them were lost in each others" eyes.
Ryo was eyeing them with jealousy.
"Aren't you going to ask me to the dance, Ryo?" Alice asked.
"No." Ryo said.
"Ok fine, I will just find another person to dance with." Alice said.
"Fine!" Ryo shouted.
"FINE!" Alice shouted back.
"Come on guys. Ryo apologize to Alice and ask her to the dance, you are her partner after all." Jeri interrupted.
"You come to this dance with somebody you like, Ryo. You didn't come here to be jealous of somebody else." Takato said. Jeri blushed if what Takato said are true, that means Takato liked her.
"Ok, sorry Alice. Will you dance with me?" Ryo asked. Well, it is true he liked Alice too. He's such a two-timer.
Both of them walked to the dance floor followed by Jeri and Takato.
*** Back to Henry and Rika
*Henry's POV* I looked into Rika's violet eyes, why is it so clear? I could see my own reflections in her eyes. I tightened my grip on Rika's hand and also wrapped my arms around her waist.
*Rika's POV* I could feel Henry's grip tighten and I do the same. I hold his shoulder more firmly and started moving closer to him until our lips met... The feeling was so great, so safe. So warm. I don't want to let go.
*Back to normal*
Everybody around them stopped dancing and watched them. Ryo was jealous of them most but Alice dragged him to the balcony and placed a kiss on Ryo's lips as well.
A few minutes later Rika and Henry broke off, both of them were breathing heavily and the crowds started to disperse except for Jeri, Takato and all the fellow tamers, including Alice and Ryo who just came back, Ryo was blushing.
Rika stared at Henry for a few seconds before she dashed out of the school.
"Rika!" Henry called after her and started running after her. What I had I done? Henry asked himself, this could spoil our friendship.
Henry ran faster until he caught up with Rika and he grabbed her arm.
"Rika, listen here, I am really sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you in the first place" Henry started.
"No, it is my fault." Rika said.
"Listen Rika, we need to talk." Henry said.
"There's nothing to talk about!" Rika shouted as she ran towards her home. Henry was stunned, had he hurt her feeling so much? He thought as he carried on his own journey home.
*Nonaka residence* Rika was in her room, she could hear her mother speaking with Henry's mother through the phone.
"Rika locked herself in her room the minute she came back. Even her grandmother could not talk to her." Rika heard her mother speak.
"Do Rika do that too? Henry too, he ignored everybody, including Suzy." (Rika couldn't hear this okay? It is on the other line but Henry could) Henry heard her mother speak
"I wonder what happened after the dance?" Rika's mother said. (After this part Henry and Rika don't bother to listen, as they were all gossips.)
(A/N This is REALLY IMPORTANT read this before you go on. This is a circumstances that Rika and Renamon, Terriermon and Henry talked about the same matter. Got it? If not feel free to mail me.)
"What happened Rika?" Renamon asked.
"No, it's nothing." Rika answered.
"Rika, I am your partner, but you never tell me any of your secrets. But if you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. But you should try talking about it, I will help you if I can." Renamon said.
"Thanks, Renamon. You are always my best friend. I think I really need your help in this one." Rika said.
"What is it, Rika?" Renamon asked.
"I kissed Henry today." Rika said hesitantly.
*****
"What? You kissed Rika?" Terriermon gasped.
"Yes, and I think I have hurt her." Henry said.
"How about you? What do you feel?" Terriermon asked.
******
"To tell you the truth Renamon, I really feel good at that time." Rika said, "I feel protected from everything."
"Then why don't you tell him the truth?" Renamon asked.
"I can't Renamon, I don't have the courage. I don't want to spoil our friendship." Rika said.
"The problem is. What do you feel around him?" Renamon asked.
******
"I felt really happy around her." Henry said.
Terriermon thought for a while before he said,
"I think you are in love Henry."
******
"Are you sure about this Renamon?" Rika asked.
"I am not fully sure but you could say it is 90%" Renamon answered.
"May be you should give him a chance." Renamon said again.
"I can't Renamon, I am a girl full of mistakes while he is a perfect guy." Rika answered.
******
". I will break her heart." (They both think that they are not perfect for each other) Henry said.
Terriermon was speechless.
"Maybe you should try talking to her." Terriermon said.
"I can't Terriermon. I think she hate me." Henry said.
****** (This time is different) "You ask him to go away?" Renamon asked.
"Yeah. I am scared to face the reality." Rika said.
"Rika." Renamon said but Rika interrupted her.
"Renamon can you give me some peace, I need to think." Rika said, covering her ears.
"As you wish." Renamon disappeared into the darkness behind her leaving behind a sleeping Rika.
