Disclaimer: The usual, I don't own digimon

We were on the camping trip, and, so far, it was going well. I hadn't asked Matt or Izzy about Sora and Mimi yet, but it was only Saturday. I still had some time. I wasn't sure how to bring up the subject of the girls to the group, so I waited, hoping someone else would bring it up.

We had sat down to eat lunch, after we played some soccer. It was Matt, Tai, Izzy, Joe and their digimons vs. TK, Davis, Cody, myself with our digimons. We won fairly easily. Tai blamed it on that both Davis and I were avid players. Davis countered by saying that they were older and bigger. They were the only ones to care who actually won, every one else just wanted to play soccer. Lunch was made by my mother. She actually made all of our meals. My mom was so happy I had friends that she made enough food for all of us. And with the way she cooked, there was enough for us to stay twice as long. Everyone was happy with my mother's food. I think we were all happy it was made by my mom and not Tai's. She had offered to make food for us too. It took a lot of convincing to tell her we didn't need it. After everyone had had their full of the food, the conversation started.

"This was a great idea, Davis. We should do this more often," Tai said.

"Especially, without the girls," Matt added.

Davis corrected, "Don't thank me, thank Ken, it was his idea."

Everyone thanked me. "I just don't really spend that much time with you guys, and I didn't want everyone to leave before I could do that." I looked down, embarrassed.

"Speaking of girls, I have a girlfriend," Joe announced.

"Way to go, Joe."

"Who is it?"

"Her name is Momoe, she's actually Yolei's sister. I met her in class. You guys would probably like her."

Davis leaned over and whispered in my ear, "If you ask Yolei out, you could go on a double date with-" I punched him in the arm hard before he can finish. Luckily, no one noticed.

TK took his chance and announced, "I'm also dating someone, Kari."

"We all knew that by now, TK," his brother said.

"There's only 3 other digidestined girls. I wonder who they'll date," Izzy pondered, "I'm surprised there hasn't been a lot of dating within the digidestined."

"Why, Izzy? Is there someone you have your eye on?" Matt asked.

"No one," he said too quickly.

Tai grinned, "I don't believe that."

"Well, it's just that she's out of my league. I don't think she'd ever be interested in me."

"Who is it?" Tai grilled.

"Mimi."

Matt started to laugh, "I'm not sure if I can picture that. Isn't she taller than you?"

"Not anymore," Izzy grumbled.

Tai put an arm around Izzy, "Ignore Matt, he's just being a jerk. I say you ask Mimi out. You have my blessing."

"Thanks Tai, that really means a lot to me, given your past relationship with Mimi. But, what makes you think she'll say yes?"

"Back in the day, after we had defeated Apocalymon, she confessed to me she had a crush on you. I'm not sure she ever got over it," Tai admitted.

"Thank you, Tai."

After a pause by Izzy to think about this new found information, he continued the conversation, "What about Sora?"

Matt leaned back, "She's had a crush on me for years. She's a great friend, but I don't see anything more between us."

Tai's eyes glazed over slightly, "Sora really is a great person, but she's too focused on Matt to consider anyone else."

"Should she consider someone else?" I found myself asking.

"Me. After the break up with Mimi, I realized what a nice person she is, but I don't think she feels the same way."

I made a mental note of this for Sora. She probably wouldn't like this information, but I wasn't going to lie to her.

"Maybe I should say something to her, let her know I'm not interested. I'd hate for her to turn you down because she felt something for me."

"That'd mean something to me, thanks."

"What are friends for?"

Davis interrupted the handshake between Tai and Matt, "Matt, if you don't like Sora, who do you like?"

"No one at the moment. I have lots of fans from my band, but no girls seem to really get my attention. What about you Davis? You interested in anyone?"

"Me, no way! I like looking at the girls at school, but I don't want to tie myself to one girl just yet."

"What about you, Ken?" Tai asked.

"I'd rather not say," I admitted.

Davis decided to push my buttons, "Come on, Yolei sure is pretty. Isn't it nice to look at her?" Davis smiled at me, not expecting my reaction.

I tackled him, punching him in the face and stomach. "You bastard," I said as my fists flew at him. It took both Tai and Matt to tear me off of him.

"What was that for, Ken?" Cody asked.

I didn't hear the question, I was too busy yelling, "You fucking bastard, you just can't leave it alone."

Davis grinned and told everyone, "Ken's just upset because he has a crush on Yolei and she only thinks he's cute."

I worked even harder to break free so I could pound on Davis more.

Matt released his grip on me and walked over to Davis. He punched Davis's face.

"Hey, what was that for?" Davis asked, his hand at his jaw.

"That was for being a jerk. Ken didn't want to tell us how he felt about Yolei. That was his choice to make, not yours."

I stopped fighting Tai's arm and relaxed. Joe went to one of the coolers and grabbed an ice pack and handed it to Davis. Joe looked at Davis, examining his injuries. "Looks like you'll have a sore jaw and a nice shiner for a few days. I don't think it's anything permanent."

"Thanks for the help Joe," Davis gave Matt a nasty look.

"Don't thank me, you deserved it."

Davis was shocked, "I was just trying to help."

"You weren't helping, Davis," I said. I was surprised they were taking my side.

"But, he's had a crush on Yolei for years. I was hoping you guys would help me get him to ask her out. I keep telling him too, but he won't."

"If Ken had wanted our help, he would have asked for it," Izzy pronounced.

"But now that you guys know, will you help Ken?" Davis insisted.

"Only if he wants it," Tai declared. All eyes were on me, "Do you want help?"

"How would you guys help me?" I inquired.

"Well, first, we have to get Yolei to notice you. Maybe, have you dress in something nicer. Something that isn't that damn uniform," Matt started.

"We also can have someone find out how Yolei feels. Maybe I can have Kari find out," TK suggested.

"He also needs the courage to ask her out," Davis said, still sulking with an icepack on his eye.

"Maybe we could get Yolei to ask Ken out," Cody suggested.

"Maybe we could set up a group setting, so it'd be easier," Tai proposed.

"What about a double date? I am dating her sister," Joe tried, "Or with TK and Kari."

"What about me and Mimi, we could both go on first dates together," Izzy suggested.

"What if we have a party, where you had to bring a date? I could invite Sora, Izzy could invite Mimi, Joe and TK could bring their girlfriends. That would just leave Matt, Davis and Cody without dates."

"I'm not old enough to date," Cody confessed.

"That just leaves Matt and Davis," Izzy concluded.

"I could just bring one of my fans," Matt thought.

"Then all we have left is Davis." Everyone laughed.

"Why are you all laughing?"

"Because, how are we going to find a date for you?"

"Hey, that's not funny!"

Everyone liked the idea of the party. I didn't dare tell them that the whole thing made me nervous.

I was meeting up with Mimi and Sora in the digital world, to tell them what I had learned over the weekend. Sora was smiling at me as was Mimi. I looked down, sad at having to break Sora's heart.

"How was the weekend? Please say you know something!" Mimi begged.

"Davis has a black eye," I avoid the subject.

"Why? What happened?"

"He told everyone how I felt for Yolei and I attacked him, now the only people who don't know are Kari and Yolei."

"Um…" Mimi looked nervous.

My eyes grew wide, "What? What did you do?"

Mimi started to look really nervous, "I told Kari about how you felt, but not Yolei, she doesn't know, she has no clue."

"Kari and Yolei are best friends, Kari can help us," Sora insisted.

I was shaking in anger. This was the final straw. Everyone wanted to help me, but I didn't want their help. I wanted them to all go away. I didn't ask for anyone's help. Now the guys were planning a party so I was forced to ask Yolei out. The girls were enlisting help from others. Sora and Mimi were talking to me, but I didn't hear them. I grabbed a rock next to me and throw it as hard as I could. "I never asked for Kari's help! I never asked Sora's help! I never asked for Tai's help or Matt's help! I never asked for anyone's help. I didn't want to tell people, because I didn't want them to interfere with my life. Now, that's all you're doing. You won't leave me to live my life." My eyes saw nothing around me. I smashed the earth. I needed to leave. I got up. I searched for the TV that brought me here. I punched a tree as I walked by. I clenched my teeth. Wormmon followed me.

I was in my apartment. My parents weren't here for the night. I smashed open the liquor cabinet and take out everything. I grabbed a bottle and put the mouth to my lips and swallowed the liquid as it burned my throat. I drank 2 bottles. I grabbed a few more and left my apartment. I didn't know what I was doing. I just needed to stop feeling.
