Disclaimer: Do you see my name on the Digimon manga? No. Why? Because I didn't write it. Have a cookie.

Ah, ideas are really flying around my head now. I don't really know where I'm going with this story, I have no idea how I want to end it, but you probably know that Rika and Takato are going to end up together. Or maybe I'll pull a Penguin Brothers and just screw everyone up the ass in the romance department. Either way, I'll add some extra stuff in there, just for you! :D

Saturday.

"Thank God," Rika mutters.

A week with the wanker twins can make a person contemplate suicide. But a weekend without Takato...

"Hey Rika!"

She falls over. "God dammit, will you stop doing that!" She was hoping he would come.

Takato smiles. "Wanna go to the dock?"

* * *

Takato skips along the boardwalk.

"Let me make this perfectly clear," Rika snaps. "I'm only here because Rumiko brought home another guy and I really don't feel like hearing them fuck all day."

Takato looks down. "Does your Mom bring home men often?"

Rika's voice softens. "Sometimes. I never knew my father and my Mother doesn't seem to care."

Takato frowns.

"Look!" He points to a white sundress in the window of a random shop. He smiles at the thought of Rika wearing it, her hair done up real elegant, the dress flowing down her body, hugging every curve, the bow in the back accentuating her round ass.

"You look so good in that dress."

"Ew." Rika stares at the dress in disgust. "Dresses are for sluts."

"I think it would look cute on you." Takato blushes.

"You would."

They walk to the end of the pier. Rika sits down and swings her legs over the edge. She looks down at the water and smiles. They sit in silence for a while.

"Rika?" Takato starts.

"Hm?" She makes circles with her feet.

He shifts his weight. "What happened between you and Ryo?"

Rika tenses.

"I love you, Rika."

She fights to hold back tears. Why did he have to bring that up?

It's his fault.

'Yes..' She reverts to her facade.

"...?"

Rika moves close to Takato's as if to tell a secret.

She puts a knife to his throat. "That is none of your fucking business."

Takato gets a sweatdrop and tears of fright stream down his face. "Why are you that way!?"

It's all his fault.

And her wall breaks.

"I...I don't know. I've always been this way, since I can remember."

She sighs. "I'm not really like this. I guess I'm your typical angsty anime character who is cold because of a tragedy in their life and changes when someone comes into their life and reveals their soft side."

"I can be that person!" Takato grins.

Rika grabs Takato's hand and puts it to her chest.

"You see this heart?" She says, referring to her shirt.

"I guess," he replies, feeling a nosebleed coming on.

"Someone broke it.. and it won't heal."

"Rika..." Takato pulls his hand away and looks into her eyes. "Who..?"

"I love you."

"No.." She moves back.

"Was it..."

She looks away.

"Oh, Rika." He embraces her. "I will never hurt you."

And I will never let him hurt you again.

* * *

"Wha.. what is this?"

"Kato with... that girl.."

"Where?"

"There."

"This won't do..."

"No, it won't.."

"Looks like she is finally opening up to him."

"Opening up?"

"Yes.."

"We cannot allow Takato and Rika to get any closer."

"No.. indeed we cannot."

"Kukukuku..."

It seems that many random characters have been added. Or have they.. mwhahaha! I live to confuse you! Now read more.

Yeah, yeah, I suck at making mushy scenes, shut the hell up.

Rika's character keeps changing but since I drastically changed her character anyways, it's no big deal, right? Well, I guess she isn't much different than in the anime. Pissed off first, then warms up to everyone. And in the end, her broken heart is healed. Aww X3

And when she puts Takato's hand on her chest, I was making fun of that .hack episode where Subaru says "feel my heartbeat" and proceeds to grope herself with Tsukasa's hand. Haha, that was great.
