A/N: As requested, a follow-up to the last chapter! (A Joe chapter coming soon)


003

Ken's date had gone extraordinarily well. The red-headed girl was bubbly and giggly and liked to talk math. They were having a good time. That is until he, half-jokingly, asked her what TK had said to her to make her agree to this date. She giggled and refused to answer. And with that, the whole thing was ruined because the entire time Ken couldn't stop thinking about how this was happening. He couldn't enjoy the moment; he kept trying to imagine what TK had said, what happened exactly that lead to him being alone with a girl he really liked.

TK had simultaneously made then wrecked his date which meant Ken had no choice but to get revenge. Friendly, justified, G-rated revenge.

This bring us to next Tuesday where the younger team of Chosen Children are meeting for their weekly trip to Kio's, a local burger restaurant, and Ken has to put his plan into action.

Cody leaned back in his seat and kept his eyes on the ceiling while he spoke. "Ken, I'm just not sure what the point is?"

He sighed and repeated for the tenth time, "I'm getting back at TK."

"For getting you a date?"

"Yes."

"By getting him a date with Kari?" Davis asked bitterly.

"Yes."

Davis narrowed his eyes. "…For an ex-Digimon Kaiser you're really bad at this whole revenge thing."

"The plan's foolproof, alright? Okay, so when I say the code word, all of us just need to get up and walk away."

Yolei sighed exasperatedly. "Ken, leaving them alone to grab a burger is not a date."

Ken nodded. "No of course not. That's why I brought this candle."

With a completely straight face, Ken pulled out a lavender candle.

"That's… not anymore of a date."

"It's romantic now," Ken insisted.

"Hey!" Kari greeted. Not far behind her, TK waved. She observed, "You're all here early."

"Nothing wrong with that!" Ken said a bit too quickly, but neither of them seemed to catch on. TK and Kari slid onto the two empty chairs across from each other.

Kari was just about to speak again when Ken shouted, "MILKSHAKE!" Upon hearing the code word, three of the Chosen Children leapt up and shuffled to hide behind a booth a few yards over. Ken chucked the candle onto the table then followed leaving the two unsuspecting teens completely alone.

"Oh, this is awkward," Kari said in a voice that lacked any sort of discomfort or embarrassment.

"So, so awkward," TK agreed.

Ken whispered to Cody beside him, "It's not working. Why isn't it working?"

"Davis! Cody! Now!" TK called out. Davis and Cody both sprung away from the booth leaving a very confused Yolei and Ken sitting there alone. The lights in the restaurant dimmed, the now lit lavender candle was placed between them, and two trays with very fancy meals were in front of each of them.

Ken stared at it all in awe. "…How?!"

"I have my ways," TK said from somewhere in the darkness. Him, Kari, and Davis were no longer visible, but Cody could be seen in the corner with a violin and a sign around his neck reading "Mood music."

"Since when does Cody play the violin?!" Ken asked.

"He doesn't."

A sharp screech came from the strings, but Cody continued to play nonetheless. He looked slightly flustered and glanced over to TK who signaled for him to keep going.

"But.. b-but…" Ken stuttered.

"Just accept it, Ken!" Davis called. The chime of the door opening could be heard as he, Kari, and TK walked out.

Yolei was thankful for the dimmed lights that hid her blush. She said, "You do know I wasn't a part of this?"

"No, I know," Ken said, a blush growing over him as well. His d-terminal beeped and he read the message beneath the table:

"That red-headed girl was cute and all but it's pretty obvious who you really like. Have fun! Don't stay out too late! -TK"

Ken glared at the device then looked over to Yolei. He smiled. "There really is no point in wasting this food…."

Yolei smiled then nodded, and they finished their date in peace sans when Cody had to interrupt to ask if he could go home yet.
