Ch. 2 Fun Times
We talked on and on. It was great! We told all our stories. Some funny, some sad. I was the only one that hadn't told a story. They wanted me to. I had some, but none that were as good as theirs. Even Davis had great stories. I had nothing, nothing at all. I had to tell them something, so I did.
"I don't have any good stories," I said.
"Come on Kari, tell us anything!" Yolei said.
"Fine, I remember the time when I was around 10 and Tai was 14. I always liked hanging around him, it was fun! That day was different; he wanted to be with his friends, without me. This was a school day. So, after school I would hang out with Tai. That day was the first time I didn't. It was the day I met Davis. We were in the same classes, but we never talked to each other. I was watching him; he was playing on the soccer field, when Tai kicked him off. He came over to where I was sitting. He was mumbling something about Tai being a stupid big bully that thinks he knows everything…I shouldn't have said that part…Well…Davis looked at me and he was like, who are you waiting for, don't you have any friend? I got really mad at him. As you can see, we didn't start out so well…I said to him that I usually hung out with my brother, but he dumped me and I didn't know why. If I remembered right Davis said after that, that my brother was stupid for letting such a pretty girl be left alone while there are freaks who could attack me. He then asked me if I wanted to play soccer, then I kicked his butt at it!" I said laughing.
"I don't remember that!" Davis said.
"Oh, I remember seeing you with someone. I was going to tell you not to talk to strangers when we got home, but I forgot too! Now I'm glad you did!" Tai laughed.
"Do you have any other stories?" Cody wondered.
"Well…I remember the first time I met you guys. That was a great day! Full of laughs," I recalled.
"Yeah…There are so many good memories. Like the time Tai and Matt were trying to kill each other. There were scary points, but most of the time you were calling each other stupid names. Then I decided to stop it, almost getting hit in the face by Matt!" Sora reminded them.
"Those were great times!" Matt said with a smile.
"I wish we could have had more," Izzy said with thought.
"I'm getting tired," Davis said in a sleepy voice.
"Same with me!" I said.
"Davis, you can take the top bunk, Kari, you can have your bottom bunk," Tai told us.
"I don't have any pajamas, what should I wear?" Davis asked puzzled.
"Here…Change into these," Tai said, throwing a pair of his pajamas to Davis.
"I'll take you to the bathroom, so you can change," I said in a sweet and calm voice.
We left the room.
"In here…Davis?" he was ignoring me.
"Are these pictures of you?" Davis asked, looking at some photos.
"Yeah…That is me when I was 9," I told him.
"You look really pretty in them," Davis said sweetly.
"Come on Davis, you need to change," I said with a strong voice.
"I'll be out in a minute, will you wait for me?" Davis questioned.
"Fine…I will wait," this time I said it nicely.
"All done! They're a little big," He said with a little laughter.
"Come on, they look fine," I was now laughing.
"Ok, I'm coming," Davis said with a smile.
We walked back to the bedroom. I hope we didn't take to long.
"About time guys!" Sora giggled.
"Tai thought you might be planning an attack against us!" Izzy laughed.
"You guys are silly; Davis is just a scaredy cat, so I had to wait for him!" I exclaimed.
"Whatever! I'm going to sleep!" Davis said, turning himself, he climbed to the top.
"Seconds to that!" I said with a quick look at Davis. Then I went to my bed.
"Night Kari, night Davis," Tai said with a smile.
"Sleep tight guys!" Matt said laughing.
"Don't let the bed bugs bite!" Izzy blurted out with laughter.
"I don't see what is so funny," I yelled to them.
"Nighty night," Tai said as the room filled with laughter.
"Shut up!" Davis yelled. "Don't you have any respect?"
"I never thought of doing that Davis," I said looking up at him.
"Fine…We'll talk quieter," Matt said softly.
"Sweet dreams," Izzy said with a sweet voice, he wasn't joking around anymore.
Everyone was out in the living room when Davis and I woke up.
We decided to go out there. I told Davis I would make us some breakfast.
"Good morning," Izzy said in a nice voice.
"I'm going to cook some breakfast, did you guys already eat?' I asked.
"No…Tai wouldn't make anything!" Matt said with an evil stare at Tai.
"Everyone likes eggs, right? I can make those," I said, hoping they would say yes.
"Sounds great!" Yolei said with a smile.
"Will you need any help?" Cody asked in a calm voice.
"No…Davis said he would help," I said, even though I didn't ask.
"Food's done!" Davis yelled.
"Please come up and get a plate of eggs, then tell me what you want to drink," I instructed.
They all ran up for the eggs. They said one after another what they wanted to drink. They sat down and watched some T.V. Davis and I sat at the table, so did Izzy. I felt like Tai paid him to watch Davis and me! Everyone liked the breakfast. Afterwards we decided to go the soccer field and play some soccer.
"This is going to be a great day!" Mimi exclaimed.
"To bad we have school on Monday," Izzy said in a short, sad voice.
"Mimi, when are you going back to America?" Sora asked.
"Well…Yesterday, I called my mom…She said we are moving back!" Mimi shouted with joy.
"That's awesome! Where are you moving to? When do you start school?" Izzy wanted to know.
"I'm moving in the apartments that Tai and Kari live in, and I start school on Monday. Isn't that great? We can be a team again!" Mimi sounded like a little girl.
"Really? That is great!" Tai said with glee.
"Tai? Are you playing?" Matt said walking over to where Davis was.
"Yeah! Kari, are you going to play? You to Sora!" Tai said in a simple voice.
We looked at each other.
"Sounds great," Sora said in a sly way.
"Come on, let's go!" Tai said with excitement.
"Who will be captain?" I asked Tai.
"Davis and me," Tai said with confidence.
"Ok, who should pick first?" Davis asked.
"You can, I'll go second," Tai said looking at who there was to pick.
"Fine, I pick Kari," Davis said in a sweet voice, and pointed at me.
"Ok, then I get Sora!" Tai laughed while motioning Sora to come.
"Hmm…Cody!" Davis said it with bravery.
"I get Matt," Tai made it short.
"I want T.K. then!" Davis yelled.
"That leaves me with Izzy," Tai said with a temper.
"What about us?" Yolei asked.
"We want to play to!" Ken said with a smile.
"I call Ken!" Davis shouted.
"Fine…Yolei, come on!" Tai yelled and gave Davis an evil look.
"Don't worry Tai; I'm better than you would think at soccer!" Yolei tried to boost his spirit.
"Let's play!" Davis yelled to Tai.
"I will be the ref!" Joe said in a proud voice.
"I'll be the cheerleader!" Mimi smiled.
"Fine, let's play!" Tai said in a loud voice.
We ended up playing for around an hour. Davis's team won. Tai wasn't very happy about that, but he doesn't always get his way. He blamed Yolei, even though she made most of their goals. It was fun, we had not a care in the world, we just played. It was a perfect moment!
"Wow…It's already 4, we better get home!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah…Come on Kari!" Tai said, and started to walk away.
"See you tomorrow Kari!" Davis yelled to me as I walked away.
"Bye!" T.K. said to me.
"See you tomorrow!" I said back to them.
"Bye!" Tai yelled to them.
Tai and I walked home. It had been a great weekend. It had been a great day! I hope we have more of them, they are great! I felt like we were a group again, a real team once more.
"Home, sweet, home," Tai said with a sigh.
"It isn't that bad, Tai," I said softly.
"We should go in. Come on!" he said, and opened the door.
"Mom…We're home!" I yelled.
"Welcome back, it's about time you got home, it is getting late!" she said in a worried voice.
"We'll get ready for dinner right now, right Kari?" Tai acted big and tough.
"I'm coming!" I said quickly.
We went to our room. We needed to change into clean clothes. We also need to wash our hands. We had a great day, but there will be showers tonight! That will still be ok.
