This is the chapter where Hikari kinda realizes her feelings for Takeru. And I'm gonna try to add a little PataGota in this story.

I've just realized so little people read digimon fanfics already, its so sad..

Disclaimer: I don't own digimon.

12th January. Saturday. The Kamiya's house. 2.12pm.

3rd person POV

"Hikari what' taking you so long? The party starts at 2.30.." Takeru shouted from downstairs.

(A/N: if you read the last chapter, I'm referring to the pool party. Well actually its gonna be at the beach but it felt weird calling it a "beach party" or is it just me.)

"Nothing.. Nothing. I'm coming give me a minute." She replied.

10 minutes later..

"Hikari, what are you doing in there? I'm coming in. your taking so long." Takeru asked

"Don't come in!" She said, quickly locking her bedroom door.

"At least tell me what your doing in there?" Takeru said.

"Don't laugh okay, but I'm picking out what swimsuit to bring.." Hikari said embarrassingly.

Takeru started laughing.

"Hey I told you not to laugh!" Hikari complained.

"Okay I'm sorry. Let me in I'll help." Takeru told her.

"How?" Hikari asked him.

"Just let me in.. Please?" Takeru asked.

"Okay.." Hikari said reluctantly and unlocked her bedroom door.

Takeru went in her room and looked at her bed, there were about 5 swimsuits laid out on her bed. There was a white one, a black one, a pink one, another white one, and one with polka dots.

"Wow you seem to have a lot of…" Takeru said and before he could continue to say anything, Hikari interrupted him.

"Davis.. " Hikari simply said. Then the two of them started laughing as they remembered her birthday last year, where Davis had given her a swimsuit in the hope of being able to see her in one.

(A/N: Davis is Not a pervert, just you know.. how boys at that age can act.. xD)

"Hey what's this in here.. " Takeru said looking in her closet.

"Don't!" Hikari shouted.

But before she could do anything else Takeru had already held up a slightly skimpy pink swimsuit with his fingers, looking amused.

(A/N: TAKERU IS NOT A PERVERT!!! He is just amused to find something like that in Hikari's closet)

Hikari turned a deep shade of red, and explained of the time she played Truth or dare with Yolei and some girls.

Yolei had dared her to buy a skimpy swimsuit, so they all followed Hikari to the mall where she bought it.

(A/N: Yolei is also not a pervert, she wanted to set Hikari up with Takeru, and then she later dared Hikari to wear it in front of Takeru, but in the end she didn't have the guts to, and luckily Yolei forgot about it. Oh and its not that skimpy of course.)

"Oh.." Takeru said still amused.

"What's with that look on your face Takeru Ishida!" Hikari scolded him.

"Nothing.. But I think I know which suit you should bring.." Takeru said holding up the suit in front of Hikari.

"I can't wear that!!" Hikari protested.

"Yes you can. You'll look great in it, now come on lets go. Taichi and Yamato left already. We also need to pick up your friends remember." Takeru convinced her.

"Sakura and Rika said they'll meet us there." Hikari said, and admitting defeat, she put the suit in her bag, and they left after saying goodbye to Tailmon and Patamon who were sitting on the couch in front of the television.

(A/N: Takeru had brought Patamon over to play with Tailmon. Oh and Agumon was sleeping. I wrote this part so later I can write some PataGota further down)

Dylan's Beach house. 2.43pm.

Kari's POV

"Whoa you guys are late." Dylan said to them as he welcomed them.

"Yea.. We had a little problem.." Takeru said grinning at me.

I started to blush, but then I saw Sakura and Rika, and I excused myself and went over to them.

"Hey you guys." I said to them.

"Hey Hikari, well your really late." Sakura said.

"Fashion emergency.." I replied, embarrassed.

The three of us went out of the back yard into the beach; there were many kids from out school there. Dylan seemed to have invited everyone, even the seniors, (A/N: The older ones such as Taichi and Yamato.) and not just the popular ones too.

Luckily he didn't invite Mandy, Takeru had told him not to on my account. 'Takeru can be so sweet sometimes.' I thought.

There were people surfing, swimming, sun tanning, eating, and people watching football in the living room. And there were stereos on the beach blasting loud music

The three of us got a picnic blanket from the backyard (A/N: there was a stack of them there so people wouldn't have to sit in the sand) and sat down to chat. I spotted Yamato and my brother with a bunch of girls, and drinking beer. My brother's popularity had definitely risen after Yamato told everyone Taichi was he best friend.

(A/N: yes there's alcohol at the party, but mostly the 18 year old drink it only.)

After awhile, Sakura suddenly said " Hey do you think that guy is looking at me." She said discreetly pointing at a black haired guy, who looked Japanese.

Rika and I turned to look at him and quickly turned back..

"Yeah. His quite cute too.." Rika said.

"Oh his coming over.. " I said, and then quickly grabbing Rika we ran into the house so that we could leave them alone.

Rika decided to watch football with the guys, (A/N: she's a tomboy after all) and I followed her. After awhile it got pretty boring for me, but Rika was still engrossed with the game, she and the guys who had been watching, kept cheering, and arguing which team was better, so I decided to look for Takeru by myself.

'I wonder where he could be, I haven't seen him at all since just now' I looked around, but to no avail I couldn't find him. So I sat down on a couch in the dinning room and took out a book to read. "Hmm I wonder what Patamon and Tailmon are doing right now.' I thought as I saw a picture of a cat on the wall.

(A/N: yes Hikari brought a book with her)

The Kamiya's house. 3.57pm.

3rd person POV

Both Tailmon and Patamon were feeling bored and sleepy, their favorite television show had just ended, and they switched of the Televisoin.

"Hey when are Takeru and Hikari coming back?" Patamon asked Tailmon.

"I'm not sure." She said to her best friend.

"They sure make a cute couple." Patamon said, yawning.

"Yeah." Tailmon agreed.

"Tailmon can I ask you something?" Patamon asked.

"Sure." Tailmon replied.

"Tailmon have you ever been in love before?" Patamon asked in curiosity.

"Cause you know, you seem to know a lot." Patamon continued to say; now wishing he had not asked her the question.

There was silence at first but after a few seconds Tailmon replied her best friend.

"Yeah.." she said softly.

"Really? Then what happened..?"

"He.. He.. He died.." Tailmon said bursting into tears.

Patamon stood there shocked to see his best friend in the state she was in. It was rare to see Tailmon cry, so she put one of his wings on her shoulder and consoled her.

"Thanks Patamon, I don't know what I'd do without you, you always cheer me up. I really miss Wizamon,." She said, using her paws to wipe away her tears.

(A/N: My brother says Wizamon came back in the last episode, but Err in my story Tailmon thinks he died, but maybe he will come back later on.)

Dylan's beach house. 4.08pm.

3rd person POV

Hikari had been reading her book when suddenly a blonde surprised her from behind.

Hikari turned around, slightly shocked, to see Takeru standing there.

"You scared me! I thought you were one of those drunk guys." She said pointing to a group of guys who were obviously drunk, and then she hit Takeru on the back.

"Ouch.. Sorry." Takeru apologized as he sat next to her.

"Where were you anyway, I couldn't find you anywhere." Hikari asked.

"I went with my friend to buy more drinks for the party. What are you doing here.. Reading a book, it's supposed to be a party." Takeru asked her.

"I know. But I don't know many people here, Rika went to watch football, and I don't even know where Sakura went." She replied.

"Okay, then I'll sit here and keep you company." He said.

"No, its okay you don't have to company me." Hikari said to her best friend.

"But I want to.. Hey you wanna go swimming?" Takeru asked her.

"No! I regret bringing that suit, and it's all your fault." Hikari scolded him.

"Oh come on. We'll go to a more deserted part of the beach to swim.. We just have to walk a little further." Takeru persuaded her.

"Okay.." Hikari said.

Hikari then went to the toilet and wore her swimsuit under her clothes, and then she and Takeru went to the beach, and after awhile of walking, they finally found a suitable place to have a swim, where they wasn't anyone around, but them.

Takeru's POV

"Come on Hikari, get in the water." I said to her.

"Coming.." She said, looking around before she took her clothes of..

"No one's looking Hikari." I told her.

"You are.." she said jokingly before taking of her clothes to reveal the swimsuit she was wearing underneath it.

'Whoa she looks hot, I guess she was right about it being pretty skimpy..' Takeru thought, as he couldn't help but stare at his best friend.

"Takeru ishida ! What are you looking at !" Hikari shouted at him.

"Nothing." I said, starting to laugh.

We played in the water for a while, and then we came out of the water and sat on the beach next to each other. Her head was lying on my shoulder, and I had put my hand on her waist, and we sat there silently.

I was really happy, just being around her could cheer me up. I knew she'd never fall for me, I knew we'd never be anything more then best friends, but I guess I was happy with just being best friends. Well not exactly happy, but you know..

I looked at her and saw that she had accidentally fell asleep on my shoulder and although she was sleeping, she had a smile on her face.. 'Wonder what she's dreaming about..'

Kari's POV

'Huh? Where am I? Why am I suddenly in the Ishida's Dinning room? TK? TK is that you?'

Next to Takeru was a candle-lit Table set for two.

'Takeru did you do this?'

Takeru nodded his head.

'Aww Takeru that's so sweet, I love you..'

"Hikari time to wake up.."Takeru said, gently tapping me on the shoulder.

"Huh? Oh.." I said, realizing that I was having a dream.

"Sorry to wake you up, but the sun is setting, so I thought you might want to see it." Takeru said pointing at the horizon.

"Oh.. Thanks." I said.

"Its beautiful, isn't it?" Takeru asked.

"Yeah it is.." I answered.

(A/N: I wasn't so sure what time the sun set, but I checked the U.S. Naval observatory website, and it said that it would set at approx 17.04pm on that day, so if you thought it was a bit early since I wrote that it was 4.08pm on top, it isn't.)

Hikari's bedroom 10.37pm

Kari's POV

"Hikari you okay?" Tailmon asked me.

"Yeah I'm okay." I replied.

"Don't lie to me Hikari, I know you've been crying.. " Tailmon said, coming to sit next to me on my bed.

"Mind telling me why?" Tailmon asked.

I didn't reply, and Tailmon asked, " Is it Takeru?"

I nodded my head.

"What happened?"

"Tailmon.. I think.. I think you and Patamon were right.. I think I love him.." I said with tears coming out of my eyes.
