Chapter 5: Anything to see you Happy

"I hope he knows what he's doing," Kori said to herself as she put another pair of shoes in her suitcase.

Yesterday, Dick told her that they were going someplace but didn't tell her where. All he said was to pack for the weekend. Today was Friday but they were just leaving today because the drive to the place, according to Dick, would be long. About 4 hours. But, she agreed to go anyway.

"Okay…" she said rubbing her chin as she scanned her closet one last time.

"Aha!" she exclaimed as she picked up a necklace from her open drawer. It had a thin silver chain with a jade stone hanging from it. She would never even think about leaving it behind.

Flashback…

15-year old Kori Anders was sitting down on her wide window porch hugging her legs as she watched the sunset (a/n: Hmmm, why does this sound so familiar?). She would usually do this so it wouldn't normally scare her even if she was on the 2nd floor of her house.

Her mind wondered as the once white fluffy-looking clouds turned into bright orange. Mostly on her father. It had been 2 years since the accident and yet she couldn't forget how much pain it was to hear from the doctor that you father just died. Sure she was getting use to it, like, she still had her mom, and Dick of course. Other than her parents, Dick was always there for her. Always.

"Kori!"

"Huh?" he said looking down towards the voice that called her name. Looking down, she saw her best friend enter her gate and towards the front door but stopped mid-way to get her attention.

"Hey Dick!" she yelled back from her window, "Come in!"

A few seconds later, Dick entered her room to find his best friend staring at the sky…again.

"Hey," he said coming closer to the girl he knew since Kinder Garder. He sat beside her (a/n: Okay, to make things more clear: Kori and Dick are sitting on wide, strong window porch, just so ya know).

"Hey," she replied slowly turning her head to greet him with a smile. "So, what's up?" she asked trying to hide the angst in her voice.

"You okay?" he asked with concern in his eyes that remained behind his shades. (a/n: Okay, remember, I said they were 15 in this flashback so they still haven't confessed their feeling yet. That happens when their 16 remember. Read 'A Life with You', chapter 8: Arguments with Happy Endings.)

Kori forced a fake smile on her face as she answered, "Sure."

"No you're not." He said lifting her chin. "But I'm here to change that."

Dick pulled out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Kori and said, "Happy Birthday."

"Dick," she said staring at it. "Come on, open it." He said smiling.

She slowly tore off the wrapping and opened the box slowly. Inside was a necklace. The best one she's seen all her life (a/n: Yikes! Bad time for an interuption I know but I have to clear things out. It was the best necklace she's seen in her whole 'cause she hasn't seen other necklaces yet so, there.). It had a small jade stone that from a long silver chain.

"Dick…I don't know what to say…" she muttered staring at the necklace.

"You don't have to say anything," he said happy to see a real smile on her face. "But you could put it on."

Kori laughed lightly as they both stood up. Dick went behind her as he put the necklace around his best friend's neck. When it was on, Kori turned around and embrassed him. He hauggd back.

"Thank you Dick," she said quietly still tight in his arms. "You always know how to make me feel better."

"Hey," he said as they both pulled back. "Anything to see you happy."

End Flasback…

Kori put the necklace once again before her a knock came upon her door.

"Come in! It's open!" she yelled from her bedroom tring to close her suitcase. Then she heard the door open and close and a few seconds later, Dick entered her bed room with a puzzled look on his face.

"Need help with that?" he asked refering to the suitcase that Kori was trying so despretly to zip up.

"Gee, how could you tell?" Kori asked sarcasticlly before Dick zipped it up like breaking a tooth pick.

"Thanks." She said planting a kiss on his cheek.

"Hey," she said with a wide grin on his face, "Anything to see you happy."
