I quickly put on my bathing suit. I stared at myself for a minute after deciding what to wear over it. Slowly, I walked over to the closet and pulled out a silk wrap. It was long and dark pink so it wasn't totally see-through. I pulled it around my waist and tied it tight. Feeling liking I was exposing too much of my upper body, I pulled over one of Tai's sleeveless shirts. Brushing my hair, I searched for my sunglasses. As I found mine, I found Tai's and took them as well. Knowing that my hair would be getting wet, I didn't bother to clip it back, thought it made my hair look messy. Smiling, I opened the bedroom door, turned off the light, and left the room.

"I got the towels, are you…Is that my shirt?" Tai wondered.

"I needed a shirt to wear. Thanks for getting the towels," I winked.

"Lets get going then. Oh, and next time ask," he threw my towel to me.

I handed him his sunglasses and we left. It took us 25 minutes to get to the pool.

"Kari!" Yolei yelled and pulled me to the side.

"I'll be coming in a second," I shooed Tai. "What?"

"Just to let you know, um…Ken's here…And so is Davis," Yolei sadly smiled.

I let a small smile form on my face. "Good, I'll have to face them sooner or later. They both need to know the truth."

"You're happy? I'm glad, I'm sick of seeing you all down."

"I'm not going to be like that anymore. It's going to be hard, but I'll keep trying until I get it right. I don't want to be sad anymore. Uh, but I'll need your help, I can't do it on my own."

"I'll help, everyone will!"

"Then," I started to walk away, "lets get to the pool!"

T.K. walked up to me and smiled. "I'm glad you finally made it. I thought you were going to be one of the first ones here, and you end up being the last to come in."

"I'm sorry, I didn't wake up until you called me. I was having a rough night. You out of all people should know what I mean," I explained.

"That's ok, all will be better!"

"Yeah, lets jump into the pool and have a good time," Yolei dived into the pool.

"Where's Davis and Ken?" I questioned.

"Ken went to get something to drink, and Davis…I'm not that sure where he went to," T.K. said.

I looked around. "Lets get in. I'll talk to Davis after I get settled in."

"Is that what you want to do?" T.K. placed his hand on my shoulder. "I know this is my party, but I only want to do what will make you happy."

"What I want to do is plead to Davis for his forgiveness, but I have to wait a little longer. I need to distract myself from him until I know I can tell him the truth about what happened…The real reason I broke up with him. For now, lets just get in the pool and have a good time," I decided.

"Right, right," T.K. edged his way to the pool. Once he was ready to jump in, I went up behind him and pushed him into the pool. "Ah! Kari!"

I began to laugh. "You should should watch your step."

"Shut up…"

I looked away from T.K. and saw Davis walking towards the pool. His eyes looked so tired, and the way he was tense, I knew something must have kept him up the night before, and the thing was me. I couldn't help but stare at his sadness, but the minute he gave me a glance, I had to look away. He was hurt, and I was the one that put him through this pain. My mind was telling me to go up to him and tell him the reasoning behind me breaking his heart, but my heart knew it wasn't the right time. I just turned to the pool and tried to pretend like the boy I loved wasn't so close to me. I watched the other people I didn't know walk by and get into the pool.

"Kari, you should get in!" Cody called to me.

"Maybe later, I don't feel like it right now," I smiled. Slowly, I turned around, bumping into someone behind me. "I'm sorry."

"No problem. You must be Kari Kamiya," the voice was filled with joy.

I looked up. Standing in front of me was a boy my age. I knew I've seen him before, but I just couldn't figure out where. "Uh, yeah. Do I know you?"

"We met in detention. Just to refresh your mind, I'm Greg," he smiled.

"Right, I'm sorry for bumping into you," I slightly bowed.

"No problem," slowly, he tried to grab my hand.

I smacked his hand away. Quickly, he tried to kiss me on the lips. I pushed him off without hesitation. "What are you doing?"

"I was trying to kiss you."

Without thinking, I shouted, "I have a boyfriend!"

"Who? I don't see you here with anyone. Come on, I'm much better than anyone here," Greg held onto my wrist and pulled me near.

"Get off of me! I might not have a boyfriend right now, but the one I love is here, and I don't want him to think I don't love him anymore," I was almost in tears.

"Who cares?" Greg pressed his lips against mine.

In tears, I tried to scream, but couldn't.

"Get off my girlfriend!" a voice yelled.

Greg pushed me away and turned away to look at the person who was standing behind of him. I closed my eyes. The voice that cried out sounded so familiar, but who was it? Finally, I opened my eyes to see Greg walking away from me. I looked up to see who saved me. Standing in front of me was the only person who I thought wouldn't come to my rescue…Davis.

"Sorry, I called you my girlfriend, but I could tell you weren't enjoying that freak ontop of you. Uh, sorry," Davis frowned.

With teary eyes, I grabbed for him. "I'm so sorry!"

He hesitated to hug me back, and when he didn't, it made me cry even more. "Sorry? Why?"

"I'm very sorry," I pulled myself off of him.

Davis stared into my sad eyes. His matched mine, sad and lonely. I could see his confusion. I couldn't take it anymore. His eyes put a spell on me as they glowed. And it happened…

"I kissed Ken! I kissed him, I liked it! He kissed me, I liked it! It was wrong, I betrayed you!" I fell to my knees. "I never meant to hurt you, but I just couldn't tell you the truth. Davis, I love you. I love you so much! I was just so scared, and we had a fight…I hate fighting with you. It just isn't fair! I hurt you for my foolish actions. I was being taken over. The Dark World is trying to get me, and the reason is because of our fight. The love you give me, it pretects me from the depression I have, without it, I fall deeper and deeper into this pit of hate and loneliness! I know you'll never want me back for keeping this from you for so long, but you had to know. I hate myself for hurting you the way I did. I'm so stupid! Just, please…Please, forgive me for my mistake. It's a mistake that I shouldn't have made, but I did. I love you Davis, no one will ever be able to replace what we had! I love you!"

Davis fell onto his knees. Tears filled his eyes. "I-I…I love you too, Kari. Don't worry about what happened between you and Ken, it doesn't matter to me. The only thing that matters is that you are happy. I just want to keep you as far away from depression as I can. You're all that will ever matter to me. I love you so much. Thank you for telling me the truth. Kari, I really do want you back…You're the only love I could ever have. You're my first and only love."

"Hey, Kari!" Yolei laughed. I turned to the pool. She pulled my arm and I fell back into the water. "Get in, the water's great!"

I pulled my head from under the water. "Thanks Yolei…" I looked at Davis, he smiled brightly. "Come join us Dai!"

"Ok, but don't pull me in," he quickly jumped in.

"Thank you Davis," I whispered in his ear.

"No problem," without saying another word, Davis kissed me on the lips.
