~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2003-twelve

T.K. had mentioned moving back to Odaiba once or twice when we got together but he never said when. I was so excited at the beginning of 6th grade to see him walk into the classroom. Especially when he was seated next to me.

Dai didn't care for the obvious friendship I had with Takeru, because in all do honesty, Daisuke and I were close then. Just not as much as T.K. and I.

Much to Dai's horror, with T.K. back in Odaiba, we continued to grow closer. Daisuke and I however, began to grow apart. He became very possessive of me and I began to resent him for it.

Takeru and I had taken to having picnics in the Digital World not long after our final battle. It was on one of those that our relationship had changed forever. We had sent Gatomon and Patamon off to get some digifruit as soon as we had arrived. They new the drill, we told them to meet us at the valley where we usually went. This always gave the two of us time to talk in privacy.

"You don't know how lucky you are to have all your family together, Hikari. I'm only at my dad's every other weekend, even with moving back to Odaiba. And then he's never home and I'm stuck with Yamato. No offense to him or anything." He sighed as he lied down on his back. "And I have to be a burden to him..."

"T.K.?" I said as I sat down next to him taking his hand.

He looked at his hand in mine, then back up to me. "Did you know that he has to cut his band practices short on the weekends I'm over?"

"Takeru, you know your brother loves you."

"Yeah, I guess," he said sitting up. "But I'm twelve years old, I don't need Yamato to watch over me anymore. Oh well, won't do any good complaining about it."

"Yeah, and at least you don't have Daisuke hitting on you every chance he gets," I said trying to cheer him up.

"I'd punch him if he tried." The look on his face as he said that was so serious that I couldn't help but burst our laughing. "I'm glad you find that funny," T.K. smiled.

"Sorry," I said still laughing. "But the look on your face was priceless. I don't think you have to worry about that anyways. I'd be shocked if he swung that way."

"Hey, I wouldn't be surprised." T.K. said trying to hold back laughter him self now. "I think he's acting."

"Ok, how about you, Mr. All Star Basketball Player. Do you have a little secret?" I giggled.

"Not funny, Hikari. You know I'm straight." Takeru grumbled.

"Oh that. I'm not so sure. You have all these cheerleaders hanging off of you but you show them no interest at all," I said teasing him.

T.K. apparently didn't catch on to the teasing in my voice though. "Hey, Hikari, I just thought of something to get Dai off your back," Takeru said ignoring what I said.

"Yeah? Let's hear it. I'm open to anything at this point."

"Anything?" he asked moving closer. I nodded my head curious of how to finally get rid of "Daisuke.

I was completely caught off guard by the kiss. I had never thought of him as anything but a friend. I thought he felt the same way. Luckily T.K. pulled back when I didn't return the kiss.

"TAKERU TAKAISHI! What in the hell do you think you are doing?" I asked pushing him off of me.

He was about to say something when Gatomon and Patamon burst through the bushes. "What happened?" they asked as they noticed our flushed faces.

"Uh...nothing." Takeru said cautiously.

"Yeah...nothing." I said distractedly. I looked at Takeru focused again. "Uh guys, we're gonna cut this trip short. Come on, Gatomon."

I began to walk back to the digiport when I looked back at T.K. sitting where I had left him with his head in his arms. I had almost made it back when I began thinking.

"Takeru?" T.K. looked up at me standing in front of him holding out a hand. He looked at it cautiously as though waiting to be slapped.

"Yes? If you're going to slap me, get it over with," he said looking down again.

"Look at me, Takeru." He was visibly shocked when he looked up to see my face was calm. "T.K, I'm not angry with you. You just surprised me." I said as I sat a little ways away from him. "Really, really surprised me."

"Sorry?"

"Don't apologize, Takeru. Let me finish. I have never, and I mean never, thought of you as anything but a friend. A really close friend, yes, but just a friend."

"Are you trying to make me feel worse? Maybe you should just go ahead and date Daisuke." Takeru sighed dejectedly.

"Don't even say that, Takeru. Were you serious when you kissed me? Do you really have feelings for me?"

"You already know I care about you, Hikari."

"I mean as more than a friend."

"......."

"T.K.?" I moving next to him.

"I guess so," he said not sounding too sure of himself.

"Takeru, look me in the eyes and tell me yes or no. I need to know what our relationship has come to." I said taking his hand again.

Takeru couldn't manage to look me in the eys as he nodded his head. "Yes."

I smiled at Takeru Takaishi as I gave him a kiss on the cheek. He then grabbed me around the waist pulling me on my back next to him. We were both soon laughing again, back to our old selves. Only better. Our digimon were staring at us not sure what to think. We had our second and third kisses on that picnic blanket before he asked me, "Does this mean that we're gonna give it a shot?"

Before I could answer he pulled me into one more kiss, this one more intimate between us. I gently pushed him off me laughing. "What do you think?"
