Me "Hey every1! Thanks a bunch to all the reviewers who reviewed!! Yay!
I'm so happy! Anyway, I'm FINALLY able to get this chapter out! It took
me awhile, but it's here! Got lots of homework to do lately so the next
chapter probably won't be out for awhile either."
Davis "WHAT?! Nobody gets to see or rather READ my beautiful voice?"
Me "Nope!" * Thanks god silently * "So, here's the next chapter! Umm I changed what I was going to do slightly! I know I said this was going to be a chapter entitled Girl's Night Out, but that's going to be next chapter! This is gonna be in Kari's POV!"
Chapter 4: Thursday-Just a friend? ~*~
I awoke Thursday morning around 7am to the gentle rocking of the ship. Yolei, who's bed was on the other side of the room, was quietly sleeping. I quickly got dressed and decided to take a walk along the deck before we had to go for breakfast.
I closed the door and started to walk down the hallway on the deck. The hallway led to a few stairs the led to an upper deck where our dance would be held later on in the week. I decided to take a glance, just to see the surroundings.
I climbed the steps and gasped in awe at what I saw. It had to be the most beautiful sunrise I had ever well saw. Then again that didn't count for much, considering I wasn't usually awake early enough to see one. I went towards the railing of the stern (A/N: the stern of the ship is the back of a ship). I closed my eyes as I felt the warmth and the clean air of the ocean and sun mixed together. As I was exhaling I suddenly felt an arm curve around my waist.
With shock I opened my eyes to find a tall blonde haired blue eyed boy, or rather teenager standing next to me. Can you guess who this is? Yup. That's right. Takeru Takaishi, my best friend.
"Beautiful sunrise isn't it?" TK asked me.
"Mmhuh." Was all I could say as I looked over TK carefully.
He had certainly gotten taller over the past years since we went to the digital world. Along with that he had some pretty decent muscles thanks to all his training on the basketball team. His hair was a little longer, but not as much that anyone would really notice. His blue eyes never really changed. They're still the same blue ocean like eyes that you can get completely lost in sometimes. Sometimes you can see inside of them and find the same small boy that I knew when we first went to the digital world. However, the last adventure we had has changed him quite a bit. He now looks wiser somehow. Wiser then anybody his age in maturity. Everyone in school says he flirts with me but I can't really tell when he does. Sometimes he covers it up so well that I can't decide whether or not he's just joking with me. I mean he's my best friend and everything, but I guess it wouldn't be so bad to have him as a boyfriend either. Ugh! Now look at me! I'm sounding like Yolei trying to convince myself that I like TK! He's just a friend! Or so I think.
"Uh Kari? You hoo?! Earth to Kari!"
"Huh?" I finally snap out of my trance, and I realize that I've been staring at TK for the past 5 minutes. When I noticed I started to blush.
"Umm sorry I was just thinking about some stuff."
"Uh okay Kari. I'm just glad you didn't totally space out on me!" He said with a grin.
"Ha ha! VERY funny TK!" I said while I playfully punched him. "Ha ha! Well, we should be getting down to breakfast soon. It's a buffet today, so we don't want all the good food taken!" He said as he started to walk over to the stairs.
"Mmm a buffet sounds real good about now!" I say as I start after TK.
We finally got to the eating area and found 3 different buffets on the platform. I looked to see if anyone was at the table we were at yesterday was still there. Sure enough, most of our friends were there along with Tai, Sora, Matt, and Mimi.
"Hey guys!" I said as I walked up towards the table.
I pretty much got a 'Hey Kari' all around except for my brother who ALWAYS calls me Kar for short. Believe me, sometimes it can get pretty annoying!
"So where were you guys last night?" I asked in the general direction of the older digidestined.
"Oh uh we were in our rooms organizing some stuff and exploring the place." Tai said hesitantly, and I noticed Mimi and Sora started to blush.
"Uh okay." I decided to let that one go. I REALLY didn't want to know what they actually did. (A/N: No I'm not implying THAT kind of thing! I'm not that kind of kid!)
I grabbed my plate to go and get some food from the buffet, and when I got back some of the other members of the digidestined gang had joined us. Ken was still trying to find a seat away from Yolei who was staring at him intently. Davis sat next to Yolei who was unfortunately sitting next to me. Then there was TK beside me. Matt, Mimi, Sora, and Tai were after TK. Now why does it not surprise me that Matt and Mimi were sitting beside each other, and then Sora and Tai. Hmm, maybe I can get some blackmail pictures during the trip to use on Tai.
Breakfast went pretty casual that lasted about an hour. You know. The usual kind of talk and some Davis boasting done by none other then himself.
Finally we got our plan done for the day and decided that the girls wanted to go take a little sun bathing to get a tan, and the guys were going to start up a game of volleyball.
Yolei and I got onto the deck with our bathing suits on as well as a pair of shorts for me, a skort (Skirt/shorts) for Sora, and a short skirt for both Yolei and Mimi. The deck chairs were placed in front of the volleyball court, which just happened to be perfect for us. So, we started to put our towels down on the chairs and put some sunglasses on. Finally we were all settled and the guys started to come out on to the deck.
Tai had on a navy blue bathing suit (You know those ones that look like boxers) with a towel. I guess he must have been planning on going swimming later? Matt had on a pair of dark green shorts with a white tank top. I'm not even going to mention Davis, because I'm SURE you wouldn't want to hear what he was wearing. Ken had on a pair of khaki coloured shorts with a blue muscle shirt and a white strip going vertically across his chest. Finally TK came out and he had on just a pair of dark green/blue swimming trunks with his chest bare.
Mimi, Sora, and Yolei all started whistling, while Ken blushed, Tai primped, and Matt just gave a grin. I decided to join in the fun while TK just shrugged as they got into their teams.
Finally the game got going with TK and Tai on one team and Ken and Matt on the other. (A/N: I know you can't play volleyball with two men teams! There just wasn't anybody else to fill in so I made it this way. Besides they're not playing a real game.) Davis just pranced around trying to get my attention.
"TK looks hot don't you think Kari?" Yolei whispered as she leaned over towards me with her usual mischievous grin when she talked to me about TK.
"Yolei when are you going to stop pestering me about TK? I mean he's alright and everything, but we're just friends!" I said as I rolled my eyes.
"I'm not going to stop until you give up!" She laughed and winked at me while she went back to her sunbathing and watching Ken.
What can I say? I told you Yolei bugs me about TK. She just doesn't seem to get that I think we're best friends. Besides, even if TK wanted to have a girlfriend, why would he choose me of all people? In our last school he was the most popular guy around. Of course even that wouldn't stop my friends from teasing me considering they thought that I was the most popular girl.
TK spiked down the ball and scored a point for Tai and him, leaving Matt and Ken stunned.
"D-damn TK! I didn't know you were good at volleyball as well as basketball!" Matt exclaimed.
He shrugged it off as they resumed play. The girls continued sunbathing while the boys played for about an hour or so until the guys decided to go swimming.
Mimi, Sora, Yolei and I were all sleeping so peacefully to the sound of the waves and the sun on our backs. I must have been out for about half an hour or so when I was rudely awakened.
SPLASH!!
"AHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed as I woke up drenched.
"HAHAHAHA! I couldn't help it Hika! It was just such an open invitation." He said while going in to a fit of laughter.
"TAKAISHI! YOU'RE A DEAD MAN!" I screamed as I threw my sunglasses off and went at him. The rest of the gang were stunned as some of them watched from the swimming pool, and some of them had just woken up.
I chased TK down for I swear it must have been 15 minutes before his and my legs finally gave out to exhaustion. He collapsed on the deck, while I fell on top of him. I was too tired to beat him up now. We were both panting pretty heavily as I stared in to his eyes. I soon got immersed in them like I always do. His face was a little damp with pool water mixed with sweat from the run. God he just looked so hot right now! Where did that come from? Kari he's your best friend! Get it through your head girl! But he just looks so hot right now.
Before I knew what I was doing, I leaned in close and my eyes closed as my lips locked with his. They felt so warm against mine! They filled me with more warmth than I could never imagine. I soon realised what I was doing as quickly sat up straight.
"Uh H-hi-hikari? W-what was that?"
END OF CHAPTER 4
~*~ Me "Dun dun dun! A cliffhanger! MUHAHAH! Lol! Sorry about that, but I thought it was a good place to stop the chapter! Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter, and don't forget to R+R! Oh yeah one last thing! I would really appreciate it if you reviewed my other fic entitled 'Please Tell Me'. It's another Takari and I would really like it if I reached 100 reviews! That would be like a dream come true for me! Okay not really, but it would be really great! So yeah, thanks! See ya next chapta!"
