Takeru "TK" Takaishi walked along the shore, letting his feet dig into the sand with every step he took. The clean air refreshed him, relieving his stress and taking away his thoughts. So many things were bothering him; things that just couldn't leave him alone and his troubled thoughts wouldn't simply get out of his mind. The sea made him feel languid.

He smiled, taking in the fascinating scenery. His deep blue eyes stared transfixed on the horizon as he observed the sunlight reflecting onto the sparkly clear water. If he were to lick his lips, he would surely taste the salt. He loved the beach because it was peaceful.

TK's wide grin vanished from his harmless face as he saw a squatting lone figure. The boy was a few years older than himself possessing dark brown hair that feel over his chocolate eyes. He too was marveling the spectacular view.

"Hey Tai!"

"Oh TK, it's you. How's it going?" Tai questioned, not even glancing at the blond boy, eyes still looking over the glimmering ocean. Concern wavered over TK, Tai's voice usually had a rather lively upbeat tone…but that day his tone appeared rather dull.

TK squatted next to him. He pitied Tai. It was a hard position to be in and he knew that the older boy wasn't coping well with the situation. Tai worried him. Having your heart broken was probably the worst feeling that could ever happen to anyone..

" I know it's been hard for you, now that Sora and my brother are dating," he calmly whispered, staring at Taichi's dull orbs in his eyes. Tai had always loved her and TK's brother, Matt, was Tai's best friend. It was terrible, it was like he was not apart of the triad any more.

"You have no idea TK, no idea" Tai repeated, wiping his face on his sleeve, " How much it hurtsFor my sake just please don't go near, my sister, Kari. You'll only make things much worse. I've already got plans for Daisuke and her. Just…don't interfere."

TK stood up instantly alarmed. His cold eyes were now blazing with fire. He didn't understand what was going on.

"And why is that?" he asked hastily, Takeru's compassionate tone turned melancholic with rage as he met Taichi's glare. There was something about him...There was something about Taichi that had suddenly changed.

"You just remind me too much of you brother," cursed Tai then spat, " The traitor."

The younger boy gazed at him in awe. Had Tai cracked it? How could he stay away from Kari…when she was his best friend? And Tai…her brother…didn't want him to be with her just because he looked like his brother! This was unbelievable…

TK breathed in heavily, later on regretting the harsh words that were escaping his lips.

" Tai, Kari..well Kari...she's like my closest friend...I can't stay away from her... you know that. I'm not going to give up on her that easily. Just for some petty argument. Sora and Yamato are now a couple. And you...you're not taking it like a man. You've got to be strong, you can do it Tai...maybe...maybe there is another person out there for you...but you can't take this out on Kari and I."

"Is that so?" Tai asked in a threatening tone as he raised an eyebrow.

He turned sideways to face TK directly for the first time since the conversation had begun, "Davis loves her, TK. And you...you don't need to be a part of her life anymore. She doesn't need you and your influence."

" My influence? What are you talking about, Tai?! Is this some idiotic way to get revenge because of my brother?" burst out the younger boy furiously, " If you haven't paid attention, Daisuke merely has a childish crush on her, and she doesn't...she doesn't even love him! She doesn't love anyone yet...she would have told me! Why can't you face reality? I can't believe I'm saying this to you, you should know better than me. For crying out loud, you're older!"

"You think I'll fall for that...that easily Mr. Takaishi?" his harsh voice broke then stood up to stare at the teenager directly in the eyes, "Davis is the perfect guy for my sister. He's perfect...than you will ever be."

He was being impossible.

Tai silently walked away leaving the teenager trying to control his fury. TK sat there, stunned. Time went by for so long, yet he still sat there watching the sun set over the water.
