Hello everyone, I'm back again. Wow, this is probably the most consistent update schedule I've ever had.

And now some responses.

ShadowAK22: Nah, I ain't evil. I just thought that would be a good place to end the chapter. Sorry about that. Thanks for the review.

True2Momentai: Personally my weakness when I first started writing here was Dark Cloud 2, would probably still be if my T.V. wasn't a load of crap. And don't worry, all in good time. Hehe.

And now for the story. Wahoo!

Henry pulled into his bike into the garage of his house and attached the lock to it.

"What am I gonna do?" he muttered to himself.

He of course was worried about how he was going to explain what happened to his parents, and how he was going to go about things with Jeri.

He wasn't sure about how she was handling the situation, as she hadn't entered the living room to join the others, an that made him nervous. Why? He didn't know, it just did. And that didn't help any.

And of course he couldn't to be left to think in peace.

"Morning Henry," his now 12 year old sister greeted, her partner Lopmon on her shoulder.

"Huh? Oh, hey Suzie," Henry greeted back, lacking enthusiasm.

"What's the matter big bro?"

"Lot's of things at the moment Suzie, lots of things."

"Like what?"

"One of my friend may never want to speak to me again," Henry said.

"Oh come on," Suzie said, "people say stuff like that all the time, but they never mean it."

"It's not that she said it," Henry responded, "it's complicated, okay?"

"A situation is only as complicated as you let it be," Suzie said in a singsong voice, "and it'll only get worse if you don't clear things up with your friend."

"How do you know?"

"Remember when I was ten and went to Ai and Mako's birthday party?"

"Yeah."

"Well, during the party, me and Ai were goofing around with some of the balloons, and one popped and scared their grandmother, which caused a large chain f reactions that caused the cake to get launched off the table and land on Mako. He got so mad at me and Ai, he yelled at us that he never wanted to see to us again.

Of course him and Ai live together, so he couldn't keep that part up for long, but he seemed to avoid me at all costs. Eventually though, I managed to talk to him about it and apologize, and he forgave me."

"So you're basing knowledge on something you don't even know the cause behind...on a story about flying cake?"

"Hmm, yeah, pretty much," Suzie said.

Henry sighed, and went inside.

"They are right you know," Terriermon said from his shoulder, "you should at least talk to Jeri about all of this."

"And say what?" Henry asked his partner, as he entered his room, shutting the door, "'Hey Jeri, sorry we ended up in bed together?'"

"Come on, Henry, momentai" the rabbit...dog...thing said, "You're a smart guy, I'm sure you could figure out someway to start on the topic with out it seeming to weird."

"There aren't many ways to do that Terriermon."

"It's better than letting your friendship get ruined by not addressing the problem at all. And how's it going to look if Takato ends up being able to patch things up with Rika while you can't with Jeri. Man, that would be just sad."

"Hmm, maybe you're right," the tamer said, defeated.

"Yeah," said Terriermon, "and so what if you got lucky with her, what's the worst that could happen."

Henry froze at that comment.

The worst that could happen-oh God! he thought, eyes widening in horror, I've been so wrapped up in thinking what I could do to fix this that I completely forgot about what could happen if she got...

"Henry," his father said opening the door, "Takato called, he asked me to make sure you were still going to help at Rika's."

"Ye-yeah, tell him I'll be there in a bit."

"Henry, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Henry said, "I just got a little shaken up on the ride home, some guy forgot that red means he needs to stop."

"Are you sure you're okay? You didn't get hurt did you?"

"I'm fine," Henry repeated, "But I think I'll walk to Rika's this time."

"Okay, just be careful."

"Okay Dad."

With that, Henry began heading out the door.

Suzie was waiting by the door.

"Can I come?" she asked.

"I don't know, we'll mostly be cleaning," Henry answered.

"Please," his sister begged.

Henry thought for a moment.

"Alright, fine. You can come along. But I don't wanna hear you complaining about being bored."

"Yay," the little girl cheered, jumping in the air and almost knocking Lopmon off her shoulder.

"Let's go already," Terriermon said, "if we hang out here for much longer I might die of boredom."

And with that they set out for Rika's.

And...Finished. What do you guys think? Let me know in a review pleas.
