Thanks for all the great reviews though, I really appreciate them! I'm starting a new story soon, make sure your read that one to, it's gonna be quite different though(Fruits Basket)! Anyways, enjoy this story for know!


When Mimi and Yamato finished their splashing fight, Yamato flipped the boat back over and helped Mimi in after he got back in. He continued to row towards an island.

"That island has the best strawberry bushes, they're in bloom this month!" said Yamato

"Really! Strawberries are my favourite fruit! So sweet and juicy!" said Mimi as she daydreamed about strawberries.

"Me too…" said Yamato smiling

"Yamato?"

"Yes?"

"You're rowing the wrong way!"

Yamato was so distracted by Mimi that he was just rowing in circles he laughed at himself stupidly and started rowing toward the island again. To change the subject he said: "By the way, you can call me Matt, it sounds cooler." He said and winked at Mimi, she just smiled.

They finally arrived at the island and got out of the boat.

"Come." Said Yamato sweetly as he took Mimi's hand and walked towards the forest. They climbed over a few rocks and Yamato took the spiky branches out of Mimi's way, they arrived at a small clearing with strawberry bushes all around it. Mimi just stared in astonishment then suddenly Yamato stuffed a big red strawberry in her mouth. Mimi was surprised at first, but then she chewed the strawberry, it was the best one she had ever had in her life!

"Like it?"

"It's delicious!" she said with her mouth full, reaching for another one.

Yamato laughed and ate one himself.

Meanwhile:

Izumi, Kouji, Takeru and Taichi were finished the breakfast composed with toast, bacon and eggs.

"That was really good." Said Izumi as she rubbed her belly.

Kouji smiled as he agreed.

"Yeah, so good that we didn't even leave any for Yamato and Mimi!" said Taichi

Izumi looked surprised as if she just noticed their absence: "Where are they?" she asked

"I think he took her to the island!" said Takeru

"What's on the island?" asked Izumi

"Strawberries…" said Kouji

'Moment of silence'

"What's up with the band-aid!" asked Taichi looking at Kouji.

When he said that, Kouji remembered the night before and blushed. Taichi raised an eyebrow.

"I walked into the wall…" he said

Another moment of silence then Taichi and Takeru burst out laughing and Izumi blushed too.

"Let's leave these two buffoons, Izumi!" said Kouji as he walked towards outside, Izumi followed. He closed the door behind them. Outside, the sun was shining, it sparkled on Izumi's skin and in her blond her. Kouji realised then that she was beautiful inside and out too, to him she was perfect. Kouji took her hand and whispered to her: "Come with me, I want to show you something." Izumi stared into his sparkling eyes and blushed a little as she tightened her grip on his hand and whispered back: "Yes…"

He pulled her towards a few trees and Izumi was surprised to see a ladder on one of them, she looked up and saw a cute tree house: "Wah! Where did that come from!"

Kouji laughed a little and said: "Me, Yamato, Takeru and Taichi built it when we were kids, we used to go up there all the time, but then…things became serious and we had to grow up…"

Izumi looked at him, confuse, she didn't quite understand what he meant. Kouji wanted to reassure her: "But that doesn't matter now! Come up with me!" and he leaded her towards the ladder, she climbed up and sat on one side, Kouji sat on the other. They smiled at each other in silence. 'I really like him, but I'm not sure about his feelings, he's so secretive, I have to know!' thought Izumi

"Kouji, can I ask you something?" she asked

"Sure."

"Do you like me?"

"Of course I like you!"

"Hum, I mean…do you really like me, in more of a friend kind of way…?" Izumi blushed slightly as she talked

Kouji stared at her beautiful face, then got up and sat closer to her and whispered in her ear: "Yes I do."

Izumi almost melted, she turned her head and whispered back: "Me too…" she laid her hand on his.

Kouji smiled at her and she asked: "When did you know?"

"Know what?" he asked confused

"That you liked me!"

Kouji laughed, embarrassed a little: "Well, I knew when I saw your face after I saved you…the first time!" he chuckled a little.

Izumi blushed slightly and smiled: " Me too, it reminds me on that song, On The Way Down by Ryan Cabrera."

Kouji tilted his head: "I don't think I know it…"

"Fine, I'll sing it." She closed her eyes and cleared her throat. She started singing the chorus, her voice was so beautiful to Kouji: And on the way down I saw you And you saved me From myself And I won't forget The way you loved me On the way down Almost fell right through But I held onto you

After she finished her song, she kept her eyes closed and before she had a chance to open them, she felt something soft on her lips, she opened her eyes and saw Kouji…kissing her! Then Kouji suddenly stopped and started blushing like crazy: "Sorry! Hum…I just…your voice is beautiful…you're beautiful…" but before he had a chance to finish, Izumi went over to him and she kissed him! Kouji was surprised at first but then he started kissing her back…

Meanwhile:

"Ugh…I ate way too many!" moaned Mimi

"Me too!" said Yamato, then he let out a burp.

Mimi flicked his head and ordered: "Excuse yourself! You are in the presence of a lady, don't you have any manners!"

Yamato raised an eyebrow then he made a snobbish face as if to look noble and said: "All my excuses your highness! Pardon my rudeness in your presence, lovely queen of Strawberry Island!"

Mimi decided to go along with the role-playing: "You have my forgiveness! Now, before boredom overcomes my spirit, escort me to the wondrous beauties of my island!"

"Your wish is my command!" he said as he bowed towards Mimi and offered her his arm, she took it and Yamato started walking with her, arm in arm, deeper into the forest.

"So, where are you taking me?" she asked

"You'll see! I want it to be a surprise." Then he covered her eyes with his hands: "We're almost there!"

Mimi heard the sound of running water and she couldn't help but become curious.

"Ok, we're here!" then he took his hands off her eyes and revealed a magnificent waterfall! Mimi was speechless; there was a little cliff with sparkling water running off it that fell into a calm, clear, deep pond, which lay before them.

"Do you like it?" Yamato asked

"…It's beautiful…" Mimi finally spoke

"I knew you would like it." They smiled at each other

"So, wanna go for a swim?"

"Sure, you first!"

"No, ladies first!"

"I don't think so!" Mimi started pushing him toward the pond

"Let me take off my pants!" and he started unzipping his jeans and Mimi took off his sweater.

"Ok, now your going in!" Mimi started pushing him again, a few inches away from the pond, she gave him one last push, but at the last second, he grabbed her arm and pulled her in with him! Splash!

"Matt! How could you!" she said when she came above water. "Matt?" but he was nowhere to be found: "Matt! Where are you?" she started panicking

"Calm down Mimi, come over here!"

"You idiot! You scared me! What the heck are you doing!"

Yamato was behind the waterfall, where it's dry, and he stuck his head through to speak to her. All the water running down his face was quite sexy, Mimi couldn't help but smile.

"Come on!" he said and Mimi swum over to the waterfall and Yamato pulled her through. He didn't let go of her once they were both standing, he just stared at her body in the wet pyjama's.

"Quit staring, you pervert!" Mimi said as she blushed

"Sorry! I can't help it your so sexy." He said and winked.

"Hmph…" is all Mimi could said as she though: 'You're sexy too…'

Yamato finally let her go and smiled. The sound of waterfall under there was even nicer than outside. Yamato suddenly bowed and stuck out his hand: "Would you give me this dance?"

Mimi blushed and sweat dropped as she gave him her with a hint of a smile. They started dancing like to a slow song, then Yamato stopped and lightly kissed Mimi's neck suddenly, she couldn't resist…then he started moving up, kissing her upper neck, then her jawbone, etc, all the way to her check right beside her mouth which he kissed tenderly. Then he looked into Mimi's eyes and went to kiss her mouth but at the last second, Mimi turned her head and he kissed her ear instead! Yamato sweat dropped. All at once, Mimi let go of him and dived back through the waterfall.

'Oh my god, that was like my dream!' thought Mimi as she swam back to shore,

Yamato was left standing alone under the waterfall. He sighed looking at Mimi through it. 'Will you ever trust me Mimi?' he thought to himself. And he dived through the waterfall.


Yup, chapter 5 is already over!
