A/N: This chap is Takari for those who thought I was lacking in this part of the story. I also apologize for not updating this sooner, but due to lack inspiration and busy with my other stories I have not be able to keep up with this one like I want.
Chapter 9
TK and Kari wandered around not really caring where they were going. They just wanted to get out of the apartment for a while.
"Alright, now that we're alone we can get to planning how to get Tai and Sora together" Kari said clapping her hands together
"Kari, do you really think that this is a good idea?" TK asked nervously
"Of course it is TK, they like each other and I know that Tai has feelings for Sora. We just have to get Sora to discover hers" Kari said
TK sighed in defeat
"Alright, now on to planning" Kari said
TK sighed again, but followed Kari's lead as they began to plan. They shot down the obvious plans since they knew they couldn't trick them. But even after brainstorming they couldn't come up with anything. This annoyed Kari greatly.
"TK, we've got to come up with something, they belong together" Kari said in a frustrating tone
"Kari, I don't understand why we can't let things just run their course" TK said
"Because if we did, then they'd never get together" Kari said with a bit of exasperation in her voice
TK sighed yet again
"TK, they both deserve happiness, I mean Tai has had feelings for Sora since he started like girls that way. And I'm sure Sora has the same feelings, but buried them" Kari said
"Alright, I give" TK said
"Goodie" Kari said smiling
"But if Tai comes after us, you're going to have to tell him that you were the brains of the operation" TK said
"Sure, whatever" Kari said with a shrug
They decided to just hint at the idea of being a couple as subtle as they could. They knew it wasn't much of a plan, but it was all they could come up with. The rest of the time they enjoyed being with one another without a certain goggleheaded boy interrupting them.
"Kari, when are we going to end this?" TK asked
"Soon TK, very soon. I've been thinking about this for a while and I think this is the moment we've been looking for" Kari said
"Really?" TK asked hopefully
"Yes, we've danced around this long enough and we aren't getting any younger" Kari said
TK got down on one knee
"Kari Kamiya, would you be my girlfriend?" TK asked in a dramatic tone
Kari giggled, "Yes, I'll be your girlfriend"
TK got up and pulled Kari into a kiss. They both felt a jolt and knew that this was right.
As they walked back to Tai and Sora's apartment they decided keep this secret since they had an idea that they both being here was a plan set up by Tai.
"So we act like we usually do" TK said
"Yep" Kari said smiling
"Alright" TK said smiling back
They got to the door to find Sora leaping at Tai and Tai avoiding it.
"We leave you two alone for a while and you revert back to children" Kari said with her hands on her hips
"She started it" Tai said childishly pointing at Sora
"Only because he won't tell me" Sora shot back in the same childish manner
TK shook his head
"This is why we can't go out dear, we leave and they start these fights" TK said sound like a father
This caused everyone to burst out laughing
"Okay, what are you hiding Tai?" Kari asked
"Nothing Kari, I swear" Tai said
"That's a lie Kamiya, you're hiding something from me and I will find out what it is" Sora said
Kari sighed and TK wrapped an arm around her
"Next time we eat in so we can keep an eye on these two" TK said
Kari giggled at this
"What's going on with you two?" Tai asked curiously
"Nothing that you should concern yourself with Tai, you have your own problems" Kari said
Tai was about to say something when he glanced at Sora and he knew Kari was right.
It was later that night TK and Kari were sharing a chair watching a movie, Tai was sprawled out on the couch and Sora was washing the dishes. It looked like a cute family moment for the four, but that didn't enter any of their minds at that moment.
"Tai, we need to go grocery shopping" Sora called
"Alright, I'll go tomorrow, I'll make sure to pick up something special for Friday" Tai said from his position on the couch
Sora came into the living room a little later and shoved Tai's legs off the couch so she could sit.
"Hey, why'd you do that, I was comfortable" Tai grumbled
"Because I need a seat and your legs were in the way" Sora said
Tai grumbled a bit more though he didn't try to put his feet up on Sora. He knew what not to do when it came to Sora.
TK and Kari fell asleep in the chair and Sora was the first to notice as Tai was too engrossed in the movie to see anything else.
"Tai" Sora whispered
Tai didn't hear her
"Tai" Sora said a little louder
Again Tai didn't respond
Sora took a pillow and whacked her friend in the head
"Hey, what was that for?" Tai asked
Sora gestured to the chair and Tai saw and he grinned
"Aren't they so cute?" Sora asked
"Yeah, but that doesn't help us get them together" Tai said
"So, it is still cute" Sora said
"Alright I agree with you it is cute, but we've got to do something to get them going or I'm going to do something drastic" Tai said
"Like what?" Sora asked curiously
"I have no idea, but let's just say that it would be the craziest thing I've ever done" Tai said
"Tai, you've done a lot of crazy things" Sora said
"This would top it" Tai said
Sora sighed, she knew Tai would practically do anything to get his little sister to be with TK.
The next day Sora woke up and got ready as she always did, but when she was brushing her hair she noticed something hanging out of her jewel box that she kept hair ties in. She smiled when she got a good look at it. It was the hairclip that Tai got her and they had a fight over it. She took it out and put it in.
"Hey Sora, nice hairclip" Kari greeted
"Thanks Kari, where's Tai?" Sora asked
"He's out grocery shopping with TK" Kari said
Sora nodded then went to her room to grab her back, she had homework to do and she didn't want to wait for the last minute to do it. As Sora was doing her homework Kari watched and planned on how to go about getting Sora into think of Tai in the romantic sense.
"So Sora, how have you been?" Kari asked
"Fine, I'm doing well in my classes and things are just fine" Sora said without looking up
Kari frowned
"Been seeing anyone?" Kari asked
Sora looked up
"Kari, if I was seeing anyone you'd be the first to know" Sora said
"Actually Mimi would be the first then me" Kari clarified
Sora laughed
"You're right, Mimi would be the first. She has an odd sense knowing when I'm dating someone" Sora said
"Come on Sor, there has to be someone that tickles your fancy?" Kari asked
Sora tilted her head to the side in thought. There was one guy that she had her sights on a long time ago, but that fell through when she got tired of waiting and decided to move on. Now she knew that what she could've had was long gone, the ship had sailed. She frowned at this since she did really like him, but buried those kinds of feelings since she moved on and didn't want to dig up the past.
Kari watched this and prayed to every god she knew hoping that her brother was in those thoughts of Sora. Which was a really strange thing to pray for.
