Julianmon:Well he hasn't so much as blocked her out of his life... rather he... forgot about all he remembered about her ha ha. -_-; bad analogy I know.
Lord Pata:Ha ha yes I did! I'm on fire I know! Been a bit hectic, I've been trying to figure out what stories to update and what to finish. My story on my other site hasn't been updated in almost a month, my fans for that have gotten restless lol. Ah but Kari never knew in the first place that TK had a girlfriend, she kind of lost contact with most digidestined when she moved. Hmm I kept forgetting to include them, they're all in the digi world except for Gatomon, it seems easier that way.
Won't Let You Go
"Alright, make yourselves comfortable, I gotta grab something from my room." TK said, dropping his book bag by the island (big counter in the middle) in the kitchen.
The fridge door slammed shut and Davis appeared with a sandwich in his mouth and a coke in his hand already, "Okay!"
Everybody laughed at them. Yolei just rolled her eyes, "Hey, while your in there, wanna get us all something to drink?"
He groaned, "What if I say no?"
"Then I'll have to get it myself. And we don't want that now do we?" Yolei teased.
Davis shook his head, throwing out cans of coke at everyone. Kari caught hers and looked down when she heard some rustling going down around her legs. She decided to ignore it until she felt something fluffy brush past her legs, "Ahhhhhhh!!!!"
Her coke went flying into the air and Willis quickly caught it, falling out of his chair in the process as well as spilling his own coke on himself. Kari jumped up from her stool and stood in a crouching position on top of it. A door slammed open and out came TK with no shirt on, Davis choked on his sandwich as Ken starting hitting the back of Davis' back trying to get him to spit it up. Yolei was laughing as TK yelled, "What's going on out here?!"
Yolei pointed to the ground where a cute kitten was, "Your kitten has been causing trouble."
TK laughed and picked up the kitten, "Come on Kida, there's no need to scare everyone. Come on."
He left the room again and closed the door to his room, leaving the group speechless. Kari and Yolei stared at each other before bursting out laughing, "I can't believe your scared of cats Kari!!!"
"I'm not scared! I thought it was a mouse!" Kari defended her wounded pride.
Willis eyed her, "Your a digi destined who's dealt with far larger animals that are digimon that have the power to destroy you... yet your scared of a mouse?"
"Don't judge me!" Kari exclaimed, pushing him playfully.
"So Kari, you never did tell any of us why you moved to England." Ken mentioned turning towards Kari after Davis finally swallowed the sandwich he was eating.
Davis turned away from the group again because he obviously already knew. Kari shrugged, "Family problems. Someone in my family was sick."
"That's horrible! It was probably Tai wasn't it?" Yolei asked.
Kari laughed nervously, "Yeah, Tai."
"Figures, such a silly person." Yolei joked, "You should've seen Sora after you guys left, she was crushed. She thought it was because of her that you guys left, she felt bad for choosing Matt over your brother."
"Do I want to hear this?" Kari asked.
Yolei laughed, "Probably not."
"You know, I actually should be getting home to unpack. I promised my mom I wouldn't be home late." Kari said reluctantly.
"Want me to walk you home?" Willis asked her.
She shook her head, "No thanks, I actually live in this apartment complex now."
Yolei's eyes lit up, "Can I come with you?! I wanna see where you live now!"
"Actually, no friends over until we're finished putting everything in it's proper place." Kari said, her eyes looked sad.
"Oh... well maybe another time?" Yolei asked hopefully.
"Possibly." Kari smiled weakly, picking up her book bag from the floor beside her stool.
"Well okay bye Kari." Everyone said together as she headed for the door.
"Bye you guys!" Kari exclaimed, leaving them.
"So Willis, how'd you meet up with Kari?" Yolei asked curiously.
"We live in the same place." Willis said non-chalantly.
"WHAT?!" Davis yelled.
Willis looked at Davis calmly, "Both our parents know eachother from America and they sent me and Kari here to finish school before we go back to America."
"So you guys live in this apartment complex... in the same apartment... together?" Yolei questioned.
"Yeah." Willis replied.
TK's door opened slowly and he walked into the kitchen, "What were you guys talking about?"
"Oh nothing," Yolei began, "so what do you think of the new girl?"
TK shrugged, "I dunno... not much about her except she knows Willis."
"Your such an idiot Takeru!" Yolei yelled, using his full name, "Don't you know who she is?!?!"
TK glared at her, "Of course I do! We were best friends! You don't just forget someone that easily!"
"But you didn't acknowledge her!" Davis exclaimed.
"She left me with only a 5 minute warning!" TK growled.
"She loved you!" Yolei said.
"I never loved her. She was a b-" TK was caught by surprised as he was slammed against a wall by Davis, Ken, and Willis, "What the hell?!"
"You don't refer to women as that word." Ken warned him.
"Don't you ever say that about Kari!" Willis yelled.
"And if you never fucking loved her then why did you want to beat me up for going out with her?!" Davis yelled.
TK looked away from them, "She's a memory. As if anything that went on in elementary school matters. She was just a girl, and it was just a crush."
The guys let him go and started heading for the door, Yolei walked up to him before leaving, "If it was just a crush... then why were you in your room trying to compose yourself?"
TK stared at Yolei blankly as she left, "DAMMIT!"
Kari woke up the next morning to Willis shaking her, "Come on Kari, you have to get up or else we'll be late."
She groaned, "5 more minutes."
"You said that 10 minutes ago!" Willis exclaimed.
She smiled with her eyes closed, "20 actually."
Willis rolled his eyes and ripped her covers off and she fell off the bed, "Great your up! Now get dressed and grab something to eat so we can go."
He left the room and she got up off the floor, going into her dresser drawer and grabbing her school uniform. She looked at the colors, green... the school uniform from where Tai and Sora had gone to school. She put the clothes on and looked in the mirror. Quickly putting on some eyeliner and debating on whether she should wear her hair up or down. She decided on up in a ponytail with the red hair clip on the left side of her head. Then just to make her uniform look more comfortable, she took off the jacket, snipped off the long sleeves on her blouse, unloosened the neck tie she was wearing underneath, and putting on a pair of tights under her skirt before putting on the mandatory black shoes, she smiled in the mirror looking at her creation.
She went into the cupboard and grabbed a poptart before heading out the door. She saw Willis waiting at the elevator for her, he took one look at her and started laughing. She frowned, "What's so funny?"
"What did you do to your uniform?" He asked her, stiff ling his laughs.
"I made it decent. I saw how it looked on Sora, it doesn't go good with my hair color." Kari explained.
"Your so girly, you spent to much time with those spoiled Americans." Willis said.
"You hung out with those spoiled Americans way more then I did." Kari pointed out.
"Ah, point taken." He said.
The smiled at eachother before stepping into the elevator and just as it was about to close the doors they heard a voice yell, "Wait!"
The looked over and saw a blond blur running for the elevators, Willis held the closing elevator door open and let the late comer run inside, "What floor you going to?"
"Car lot." The voice huffed out.
"Lucky, you got a car to drive around. Me and my friend have to walk to our destination." Kari laughed.
"That's gotta suck." The voice steadied itself and looked up, it was TK.
"Oh." Willis said, looking out the side as the elevator headed down.
"Well now that I know who you are, I can give you a ride." TK said.
"It's fine, we'll walk." Kari said as the elevator stopped where they needed and she was the first one to leave.
As Willis was passing TK, "Dumb ass."
TK groaned as the elevator went down to the car lot level, the stuff that happens now a days is so not worth the drama. Although he had to admit, Kari was really... beautiful now... I mean, she was pretty before! But now she'-she has a more mature level about her.
"Kari!" A voice yelled from behind Kari and Willis. It was Yolei walking with Ken and Cody.
"Yolei!" Kari yelled back.
"I love what you did to your uniform! I should do something like that hm... you should come over to my apartment after school today and help me transform my school uniforms." Yolei said, looking at Kari's uniform from all sides.
"So what are we doing today? Wanna go somewhere for lunch?" Kari asked as her and Yolei walked behind the 'gossiping boys'.
"Well actually me and Autumn are going to eat up on the roof today, her 3rd period got cancelled so she's going to go to a food joint and grab something to eat and bring it back." Yolei explained.
"Oh..." Kari said, looking down at the ground.
"You can join us though!" Yolei exclaimed, "But I don't know if you'll get along with Autumn."
"Why wouldn't I?" Kari questioned.
"Autumn is TK's ex-girlfriend." Yolei explained.
"Who cares if she's his wife. I doubt I'll hate her." Kari said.
"Okay." Yolei said.
"Will you girls hurry up!? Come on! I wanna see if Nami is here yet!" Davis exclaimed.
"Nami?" Kari asked Yolei.
"Davis' girlfriend." Yolei replied.
"Oh." Kari nodded in understanding.
Yolei laughed, "Come on, let's get to class."
Kari smiled, "Alright."
The girls ran to catch up to the guys.
The bell chimed and Yolei jumped out of her seat, "LUNCH TIME!"
Everyone laughed, Kari shook her head, "Come on Yolei let's get out of here. I'm starved."
"Can we come?" Ken asked.
"Sorry, we need some girl time to catch up." Yolei said, sticking her tongue out.
"Fine with me, Nami and me are going out for lunch." Davis said.
"Well who am I supposed to hang with then?" Ken asked.
"Him." Yolei said, pointing to TK.
"But he's so depressing!!!!!!" Ken whined.
"Get over it, I haven't seen Kari in a long time. You can put up with the depressed TK on your own. Peace!" Yolei exclaimed, grabbing Kari and running out of the room.
Ken turned around to see Davis gone and he looked at TK who was leaning on his desk looking out of the window and he groaned before putting on a fake smile, "TK! Buddy! Let's go play some basketball!"
"Autumn we're here!" Yolei exclaimed, running through the roof doors and smelling the fresh air.
"Hey, who's she?" Autumn asked curiously.
"My friend Kari. She moved here from America after she moved from England. But we were friends in elementary school." Yolei explained.
Autumn looked impressed, "Multi-Cultural... I like it. My name's Autumn."
Kari shook hands with her, "My name is Kari."
"Your the famed Kari that TK wouldn't shut up about? Your the reason I broke up with him you know." Autumn said, pretending to be all knowing.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" Kari exclaimed.
Autumn laughed, "It's not your fault, besides I can do so much better. There's this one boy I like now, he's the transfer student named Willis."
"Awe you like Willis?" Yolei questioned making Autumn blush.
"Shhhhh. It's a secret." Autumn winked.
"I live with Willis." Kari said innocently.
Autumn looked at her weirdly and then grumbled, "Taking everything I want."
"Woah, I don't like Willis like that. Our parents sent us from America to learn in Japan for the remainder of our school years." Kari explained.
"Oh..." Autumn said stupidly.
"Willis, are you ready to go?" Kari questioned, peeking her head into the classroom where Willis was finishing up his school work.
"Actually I need to finish this report before I leave. You know your way back right?" Willis asked.
"Oh, alright. I'll see you at home. I'll make us something to eat." Kari said, grabbing her knapsack from the chair closest to the door and slinging it over her shoulder.
"Alright, see you when I get home." Willis said, waving Kari off.
She headed down the hallway to where the shoe lockers were and did the combination. Inside a bunch of letters fell out onto the ground. 'What are these?' she asked herself. Picked each one up she put them into her knapsack and took off her indoor shoes, putting on her black outdoor ones. Sighing she sling-ed her knapsack over her shoulder again and headed outside the school. The sun was already starting to go down and she went to check what time it was, "It's 6 o'clock."
She quickly turned around about to panic when she saw TK, "Oh, thanks."
She turned back around and starting walking away from him. She heard some running footsteps and realized that he was right by her side, "Want a drive home?"
"I dunno... should I talk to strangers?" She challenged.
"Cut the crap Kari, I know who you are and you know who I am. No need to be shy." He snapped.
"Really? Because yesterday you were pretty keen on thinking I was just some new kid from America." She mused.
"Come on, I could never forget you." TK pointed out.
"But you forgot me when I left for England?" She growled.
"I didn't forget you!" He exclaimed.
"Obviously not! But you replaced me! Then she broke up with you because you couldn't stop talking about a girl you went to Elementary school with!" She yelled.
"How did you know about Autumn?" He questioned.
"We're friends now. Isn't that something?" She glared at him.
"Fine, you don't have to get along with me. Just let me drive you back to the apartment. Please?" He pleaded.
"And why should I say yes?" She questioned.
"It's dangerous around this area at night. I don't want you to get hurt." He said with all sincerity.
"Ugh fine, where's your car then?" She looked around.
"In front of you." He pointed towards the dark blue truck in front of her.
"How'd you afford that!" She exclaimed.
He shrugged, "Birthday present from Matt."
"Spoiled brat." She mumbled.
"Just get in."
Kari huffed angrily and got into the passenger side as TK got into the drivers side, he turned on some music and left the school parking lot. The drive was silently, every few minutes TK would look at Kari in the rear view mirror and then quickly look away. And occasionally Kari would look over at TK, then notice he was looking at her in the rear view window, then they would both look away quickly.
They reached the car-lot at their building and both walked into the elevator, it was deserted. They waited calmly as the elevator went up to their floor. Hearing a ding, the door opened and the two started walking down the long hallway that winded around to the other side of the building. Kari stopped in front of her door, hoping that TK would go right past her, but he stopped with her. She sighed, "What?"
He fidgeted a bit, "Umm...."
"Would you like to see inside?" She asked him calmly.
"Sure!" He exclaimed.
She giggled to herself and unlocked the door, going inside and turning on the lights. She set her keys down on the counter top and put her bag on the couch, "If you want you can look around.. Just don't go into the rooms, but you can open the door."
"Alright." He said, walking down the hallway to the rooms as Kari dug around in the fridge for something to make for supper.
Listening to her request, he opened the first door and recognized it as a guys room. That was weird, who was living with her? He shook it off and closed the door. The next room was an office with two desk. There was also the bathroom. The very last door was obviously Kari's room. He opened the door and fought a sudden urge to go right inside. The walls were painted a bright pink. Everything in the room was pink, yellow, white, and black. Not much of a color pattern... He walked in, forgetting about Kari's warning. He walked over to her bed side table and picked up a picture. It was from when Kari and TK were still really really young. They were holding Patamon and Gatomon, laughing. He smiled at the memory of taking that picture. Setting the picture down, he saw a book lying on her bed with the words Journal on it.
He picked it up and was about to open when he heard some shuffling from behind him, he threw the book onto the bed. "TK?"
He turned around and saw Kari standing in the door, "Ah Kari I was uh-"
"I think you should leave now." She snapped.
"Fine." He said, leaving the room and following her down the hallway.
They stopped at the door as he put his shoes on, then he paused, "What?" She asked.
"Can I do something really quick?" He questioned.
She groaned, "Fine."
He quickly pulled her into a tight hug, "Thank you."
"Okay, you can let go now." She grimaced under his hug, "Can't breath."
"I won't let you go." He said.
"Why not?" She growled.
"I let you go once... I don't want to lose you again." He explained.
"I live down the hallway from you. Now get out!" She yelled.
He let go of her and smiled, "Missed you."
And with that he left.
