Hey all

Hey all!

Exams start on Monday… Grr… So I might not have much time to update… But I promise that something will be up, even if they are just short chapters. Well the Mizuji story should be posted after this it's called 'Winning the Game' so look out for it! Sorry for the lack of Mizuji in this chapter but it will pick up in their story because I have something planned for the poor couple!

Super garurumon – No it's really not your fault! I knew it was going to come up some time or later and don't worry that's only a couple of chapters! When I planned this story I wrote seven pages… Seven whole pages! So don't worry it's really not your fault!

Gold Dragon36 – Yup Kouji and Mizuho will have their own story and this will be a Takumi again! Lol, looking at it now I did give a lot away but there is still a whole lot more to the idea!

Jxnie – Nope sadly they can't… Grr battle of the OCC's Mizuho against your character to see who gets Kouji! LOL, just kidding! But u must admit it would be funny!

Chapter 7 – A sweet dream

"And the winner for captain of the year goes to Takuya Kamiya!" There was a thunderous applause as the muscled player walked up to the stage to receive his award.

A huge grin was apparent on his face as the golden trophy was handed to him. Izumi couldn't help but feel her heart leap as he flashed her a special smile as he received the award.

After a quick speech he stepped off the stage and back to his seat. When he got back Izumi gave him a quick kiss, her way of saying congratulations. "If that's the reward I get I'll get a lot more trophies," he joked before giving the blonde one his own kisses.

"Hey you want to go hit the dance floor?" Izumi looked at the brown haired boy next to her and smiled. The night had been going perfectly and it was something Izumi wouldn't forget in a hurry.

"Sure, but just so you know I'm not the greatest of dancers," she said as he took her hand and led her to the floor.

"That's okay I can always teach you," he whispered as he pulled her small body closer to himself. Izumi blushed at the close contact and it only increased when he took her small hands in his own.

"Now, one two three," he said as he led her in the waltz that was playing. Izumi followed him while looking down, trying to memorize the steps.

Soon she was going in unison with him as she got the rhythm. "See was that so hard?" he asked as he placed his hands on her hips.

"No because I have a great teacher," she said as she snaked her arms around his neck and lent her head on his shoulder.

The song changed to a slow song and the couple danced happily, not caring for the flashes of cameras around them, or the stares they were getting from the other couples on the floor.

All that matter was that they were together.

"I see Takuya has finally found someone," an auburn haired woman remarked as she watched the young couple on the floor, dancing as if they were the only two on the planet, let alone the dance floor!

"My son has finally grown up Sora," Taichi Kamiya remarked as he took his wife's hands. A small tear rolled down his cheek.

"Taichi Kamiya! Are you crying?" Sora asked her husband as she wiped the small tear away.

"No I'm not!" He sulked, pulling his face away and crossing his arms.

Sora laughed at her husband's childishness. "You always were sentimental and that's why I married you," she said while placing a quick kiss on his cheek.

Tai stopped his sulking and looked at Sora, "So you didn't marry me for my good looks?"

Sora rolled her eyes, "That two but I care what's on the inside. Now stop sulking and crying and let's hit the floor!" The auburn haired woman said sitting up and pulling her husband with her to the floor.

Takuya saw his parents walking onto the floor and dread filled him. Please let them not embarrass him… Please not in front of Izumi!

His father sent him a wink and he groaned and immediately regretted it as Izumi took her head off his shoulder and asked what was wrong.

"Nothing!" he replied nervously and hoped she would believe him.

"Takuya Kamiya I know you better than that!" she said looking at him suspiciously.

"Fine…" he grumbled, knowing he couldn't win against the blonde. "Well my parents are behind us and I'm well scared they do something, well… embarrassing…" he admitted.

Izumi turned her head to the look at the husband and wife behind her before giving them a warm smile, "You should take me to meet them sometime, they seem nice."

"Yeah… I will," he said as he gave his parents his own smile. This was another reason why he was lucky to have the girl in front of him.


"Hey Izumi do you want to go to the after party?" Takuya asked the blonde after some time. They had finished dancing some time ago and the people were slowly dispersing.

Izumi looked at the floor. Somehow Mizuho had managed to drag Kouji to the after party and so the pair had already left. For some reason she just wanted to spend time with Takuya instead of getting wasted at some party with millions of other people.

"Not really but if you want to I'll go," she offered but hoped he didn't want to go…

Surprisingly he breathed out a sigh of relief, "Good because I really didn't feel like going to some stuffy party. Only if you wanted to go."

Izumi laughed, "So I guess we should wrap it up here," she said as they got up from their chairs.

"Yeah… I want you to come meet my parents quickly," Takuya said nervously as he led her towards the table where his parents were still sitting, watching Takuya walk up to them with Izumi in tow.

"Mom, dad… I want you to meet Izumi…" he said, nervously putting his hand behind his back as Izumi walked forward.

"Pleased to meet you Mr and Mrs Kamiya. I'm Izumi Orimoto," she said as she extended her hand to the couple. Takuya was amazed that she didn't seem nervous at all. In fact an air of confidence surrounded the blonde.

Sora immediately got up from her chair and gave the smaller girl a quick hug, "Wonderful to meet you Izumi, we've been hearing so much about you!" she said, putting her hands on Izumi's petite shoulders.

Izumi blushed as she looked down. Takuya spoke about her to her parents?

"This is my husband and Takuya's father, Taichi Kamiya," Sora said motioning to the man behind her.

Izumi's emerald eyes widened at the man. The man behind the auburn haired woman was a man with the wildest mop of her she had ever seen in her life. She could definitely see where Takuya got his hair from. "Nice to meet you Mr Kamiya."

He got up and shook the hand that Izumi offered. Takuya looked nervous as he stood and watched the whole thing going on and hoped his parents didn't say or do anything embarrassing. So far everything seemed to be going well as his mother gave Izumi a motherly hug and his father gave her a friendly hand shake. All seemed to be going well…

"Well mom, dad I have to take Izumi home so…" he said, breaking the greeting up.

Sora smiled, "He always was nervous when we met his girlfriends… Bring her around sometime Takuya," the older woman said before she gave him a quick kiss, making the chocolate eyed player blush deeply.

Taichi simply gave his son a fatherly hug before giving Izumi a quick hug. As Izumi and Takuya walked towards the entrance the married couple called, "It was wonderful to meet you Izumi!"


The drive was in silence as Takuya tried to gather up the courage to ask her what he wanted to but it wasn't going to well; he wouldn't be-able to face himself if she rejected him.

"Takuya is something wrong?" Izumi asked her voice full of concern at his unusual silence.

Takuya gulped… She had figured him out and this was his chance, "Izumi do you want to come back to my place?" There was no turning back now…

Izumi contemplated this idea. Did this mean he wanted to make their relationship go further? She had only just met his parents! Besides they had only known each other for a few short weeks! But Takuya wouldn't try anything would he? And she could just always stop him if anything went wrong…

"Sure."

Takuya could hardly maintain his excitement as he turned the corner to his block of flats. She had actually said yes!

The rest of the drive went quickly as they pulled ever closer to his and Kouji's condo. Takuya was beginning to get slightly nervous… What if something happened? What if they broke up after this?

He didn't have much time to ponder the matter as he parked his car and went to open the door for Izumi.

"Thanks," she said as he closed the door and took her hand, leading her towards the entrance of the grand building.

He was greeted politely by the man at the door as he and Izumi made their way towards the elevator. His heart started pumping faster as they got into the elevator and punched in the top floor button.

He was more nervous than he would be before any soccer game and to him that was rare… Usually everyone would stay away from him before games otherwise he would snap at them…

Everything felt like slow motion as he opened the door and he and Izumi entered. "Wow… It's beautiful!"

Takuya was confused at the girl's words as she let go of his hand and walked straight to the balcony. He followed her and soon realized why she had gone.

At this time of night the view of Tokyo was just as she said it, beautiful. The city lights only added to the beauty as he placed a quick kiss on Izumi's cheek. "I'll be right back."

He went inside and grabbed two camp chairs before bringing them and folding out one for Izumi, "Here, it might be more comfortable to sit."

She thanked him before sitting and continuing to look up at the stars.

"Aren't you also going to sit?" she pondered as she saw him standing.

"Oh… I'm just going to get us something to drink," he replied before walking off to the kitchen and grabbing a bottle of wine off the small wall cellar. He then took another two crystal glasses and made his way back to the figure.

"Sure is beautiful…" he remarked while pouring the wine into the glass and handing it to her.

He furrowed his brows when she didn't take the glass. "Izumi…" he said his anger gathering. If she didn't want she could just tell him instead of ignoring it.

"Izumi!" he said loudly as he turned to face the girl.

His expression immediately softened as he saw the sleeping figure of the blonde haired girl. His heart leaped, she looked like an angel even when she was sleeping.

He smiled before placing the glasses down and picking her up bridal style and carrying her into the condo.

He went into his room and placed her on the bed. "Sleep tight my angel," he said giving her a tender kiss as he turned to leave the room.

He was stopped when he felt something pulling him. Turning he saw that Izumi's hand was wrapped around his wrist, "Hold me for a bit Takuya," she whispered not even opening her emerald eyes.

He smiled and walked back to the bed and took off his shoes and jacket before curling up next to the blonde angel. He wrapped his arms protectively around her small waist.

"Thanks Takuya."

"Sure my angel."

Takumi Fluff! I enjoyed writing this chapter! Hope you enjoyed the end part as they cuddled up together! Mizuji's story should be on sometime tonight if I get time… It's called Winning the Game so be sure to look out for it!

MWA!
