Author's note: Hey, I'm back! I'm so glad, too, because it was a stupid school trip to our state's legislature (I'm from South Dakota, by the way). I hated it! Anyway, I'm soooo happy I'm back. Besides, I had to write this next chapter for ya, didn't I? Well, here you are…a short, but sweet one.
The Choice
Chap. 5 Love is a Wonderful Thing
The next day, Kazu ran through the school halls, Kenta close behind. They soon came around a corner.
"Takato! Wait 'till you hear-"
Both of them stopped in their tracks, seeing Jeri and Takato kissing again.
"Great…" Kenta sighed, "Let's go…"
"Kenta, wait!"
"Wait!...Why?"
Kazu reminded him, "I still have to tell Takato something."
Kenta sighed.
Henry and Rika soon walked by, not saying a word. Takato then looked at them.
He asked, "What? Not even one comment? You guys usually say something."
"Well…" Rika smiled, "We don't mind much anymore."
Takato was confused, until he saw Rika and Henry put their arms around each other and kiss repeatedly.
"Ohhhh….." Takato, and everyone else, were speechless.
"…..Anyway…" Kazu regained himself, "Guess what? My parents are going to be gone all weekend! Do you think I should throw a party, or something?"
"Hey, that'd be awesome!" replied Takato.

The party took place on Saturday, and everyone was invited.
"Man, this party rocks!" Kazu was excited.
"Let's put some tunes on!" Kenta suggested.
As the music progressed, a slow song eventually came on. Henry walked over to the couch where Rika sat.
"Rika?"
She looked up.
"Do you want to dance?"
Rika smiled, "Sure…"
Henry took her hand, helping her up. They soon swayed to the music as they held each other's hands. Rika then put her arms around Henry's neck as he put his around her waist, pulling her close. Rika loved being in his warm embrace and soon leaned her head against him.
Author's note: Sorry that was so short, but the next chapters are quite a bit longer, I promise. (They get more interesting, too) Wow, I'm already half way!...so this story should be ending soon (just to let you know, that is).
