DISCLAIMER: I in no way own either Digimon or Savage Garden's Tears of
Pearls. If you think I do, you need a check-up. Anyway, no money will be
made off of this, it's just for entertainment... blah blah blah... we all
know how this goes... onto the fic.

Yamato caught himself once again losing his gaze to Taichi Yagami, another
boy from the summer camp he had been at not more than two days before; the
boy he had grown to admire even in such a short time.
In a way, Yamato had always known he was different from most kids... but
not like THAT.
And yet, every time he saw those wild chestnut locks constrained only by a
pair of rediculous goggles, and looked into those deep brown eyes,
something inside of him went inside out.
And we stare each other down
Like victims in the grind
Probing all the weaknesses
And hurt still left behind and we cry
These tears of pearls
Matt decided to tell him. Tai had the right to know. If he got rejected...
he got rejected. He was already pretty much an outcast. He slowly picked
up his pace to come from the very back of the group to the front, sidling
up next to Tai. "Tai? I think the group needs to rest for a while." Matt
said, hoping his excuse to stop would work. Apparently Tai agreed, nodding
in response, bringing an audible sigh of relief from the group. Matt then
looked back at Tai. "Besides, I need to talk to you."
Tai shrugged, sitting down on a rock next to his Agu-buddy. "So, talk."
"Not... here." Matt said, looking around nervously.
"Matt, say it here or not at all. I'm sick and tired of walking myself. If
you wanna say it bad enough, you'll say it."
Matt sighed, slumping to sit on the same boulder as Tai. "Well... as long
as you promise not to flip out."
"Sure, whatever."
"No, REALLY."
Tai shrugged once again. "I said sure."
Matt glanced to the rest of the group, glad they were all quite a bit away.
He leaned in toward Tai, putting his mouth near Tai's ear. "Tai, I think
you desreve to know that... I... I... think you're... you know... sorta..."
"Sorta what?"
"Well... beautiful."
Tai literally fell of the rock. "YOU THINK I'M WHAT?"
Matt's head dropped. "L-listen man... I'm sorry... I just..." he looked
over his shoulder, standing up. "Gabumon, come on." he began walking
towards the forest.
"Where are we going, Matt?" Gabumon inquired.
"Away." Matt answered simply, disappearing into the forest, his dog-lizard
close behind.
Is love really the tragedy the way you might describe?
Or would a thousand lovers still leave you cold inside?
Make you cry...
These tears of pearls
"What do you think that's about?" Sora asked, hand on her hip.
"Mimi shrugged. "Boys. Who knows 'em?"
It took a moment before it could actually register in Tai's mind that Matt
had run off. "Damnit! Matt! MATT!!" He stood at the edge of the forest,
yelling. He looked to his Digimon. "Come on Agumon. Time for a hike."
Detectable groan from the lizard.
Tai silently went in search of Matt. The dangers of this world could put
him in danger. iDid Matt really mean that? But... and... do I? I'm not...
am I? I'm... to young to even think about that! And... that's just wrong!
And... MATT?! I've known the guy two days and we've already gotten in three
fights! Besides... I'm just not... /i Tai shook his head in exasperation.
All these mixed emotions
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
Matt laid on his stomach by the river bank, his now un-gloved hand
brushing across his reflection. iWhy Tai? He hated me enough already; why
did I have to tell him that?! Baka baka baka.../i Matt couldn't help but
cry at the thought of Tai absolutely despising him. He burried his face in
his arms, a worried Gabumon looking on, unable to understand what was
bothering his friend.
"Ow! Damnit! Agumon, watch where you step. That was my foot!"
Matt was crying so hard at the time, he didn't even hear someone
approaching.
Your kisses are like pearls
So different and so rare
But anger stole the jewels away
And love has left you bare;
Made you cry... These tears of pearls
Tai froze as he heard a familiar sound. Crying. Being a big brother, he was
well associated, but this one turned his gut. The voice wrenched between
the sobs tore at Tai, making himself want to choke up.
iIs this over me?/i Tai asked himself. i Does he really care that
much? /i He froze, unable to move. His usual wise-cracking mind was gone
and replaced with a near-empty one... well, it was always nearly empty,
but this was void of almost anything for several seconds.
Well I could be the tired joker
Pour my heart to get you in
Sacrifice my happiness
Just so I could win
Maybe cry... these tears of pearls
Matt didn't know what it was, but he sensed that he should look up. He
lifted his head only to see Tai on the other bank of the narrow brook, some
unreadable expression on his face. "I'm sorry Tai... I'm so sorry..."
Tai picked his way carefully across the rocks in the brook to get to Matt,
looking up as he heard the apology. "Sorry? Sorry for what?"
"Huh?"
Tai plopped down on his stomach next to Matt. He looked down to the river,
where Matt had slowly reverted his gaze to.
All these mixed emotions

"I hate you." Tai said simply. "You know that." Pause. Matt's gaze looked
even more depressed, if that was possible. It was only then that Tai
finished. "But for some god-awful reason, I think you're beautiful too."
he paused yet again. "And I think... I love you."
Matt's gaze locked on Tai, disbelieving, part of him thinking it was some
sort of trick. He searched Tai's eyes carefully, finding his suspicions
were false. "Y-you do?"
"Does this say?" Tai asked. Matt tensed as Tai placed a hand behind his
head, then relaxed as Tai pulled him in, their lips meeting in a kiss.
Never had Matt kissed anyone... neither had Tai. He hoped he was doing it
right, because, for some reason, he wanted to please Yamato more than
anything.
Not quite going into a french, as the kiss ended, Tai simply slid his
tongue over Matt's lips playfully.
Tai laughed softly as Matt pinned him to the ground, smiling broadly. "I
love you too, Taichi."
We twist and turn where angels burn
Like fallen soldiers we will learn
That once forgotten, twice removed
Love will be the death, the death of you
"Tai?? Where are you?"
Tai and Matt's heads shot up as they heard Sora calling.
Tai's expression faded to one of worry. "Please don't tell her. I'd like to
live to see tomorrow."
Matt nodded. "Alright... noone finds out... just yet."
